Uhmm he did not kill any of his parents? He simply wanted closure and move on knowing the truth. As @AgentQuake said, he has a strong moral compass. He's mad at the world for the life that he had but at the end of the day, he chose to be on the 'good' side of the law, no matter how much it hurt him. Episode 15 tbh made me really admire SJ's character 

Please feel free to express your opinion, I respect that.

I just happen to see him differently from others. It doesn't make my opinion wrong. Just different.

Yeah no, if someone tried to drown me, then gave me to a known terrorist, then gave me to people who then gaslit me and tricked me into believing I was mentally insane and took away my entire identity...

 

All 3 of SJ’s parents are the worst of the worst.  Honestly if I were him, I’d toss all 3 of them into a river. 

SJ’s entire life was stolen from him by the greed of his 3 parents, and LL.  But any time anyone asked him to do the right thing - he did it.  The guy’s got an attitude, but he has a strong moral compass. 
 

We can see how highly regarded he is by all the main characters.  JTE loves him like family, he became JY’s biggest ally, and even though LG saw him as a romantic rival, and then an annoyance, SJ had his full trust and respect.  
 

 

 

So you advocate parenticide. It would not shock me if he did.

I know he was in faith but don't recall much of that character just remember mostly the short king and Choiyoung's right hand the one who was following him everywhere and kind funny looking. I haven't seen anything from that actor playing the king I thought he was great 

The actor playing the king was in the drama with L and Go Ara. Recently he was in Nobody Knows I think.

In Faith he kidnapped the doctor and tried to take her to either the envoy from Yuan or the queen's uncle. It was just after the lady with fire power was killed.

I'm not really mad at him that is just a joke of course the dramas have nothing in common except the two actors.

Yours like mine is only an opinion. Nothing changes my view. I'm pretty sure I know it was just a role in Faith. I have no real bias against any actor and it's not your place to tell me if I am or not because you don't know.

I don't recall him being sold but gave him to LL so he could have a better life, beats drowning him. Nonetheless his attitude towards his mother was unacceptable to me. I clearly thought I was expressing my opinion. One might believe if I kill myself what will happen to my child, can he or she survive. It's not the best solution, granted, but is one that a desperate person might conclude. Too me his character was not a favorable one. So I like all of you I expressed my impression and conclusion.

I paid close attention, very close to the whole drama. He had his mother arrested because she was an embarrassment and costing him money.

He had a lot to be grateful for. He lived a well to do life until his family lost their ther financial footing. Also, he met JTE. He became a police officer and a martial art expert. In ROC he was either going to die or be a beggar.

However, I know it is only his role and he plays it very well enough for me to comment the way I have.

Blessings

I have no empathy for SJ, he's been rude right from the beginning because he was too much of a coward to confess his feelings yet he felt he has the right to object to her persuing the one she loves. Secondly, he was a hindrance most of the time because of his poor attitude. I can't recall anything he did so great. He always had a sour look on his face and I groaned at all of his appearances.

 

When he had a chance to reconcile with his mother who could have succeeded in drowning him but secured his future he balked and walked away with an ungrateful attitude for his escape from poverty. He even arrested his own mother.

If he can't confess love how can he express love, JTE did not need his love as a lover, maybe a brother. And believe me she knew he liked her.

Finally, I haven't forgiven him for being a traitor in the Faith(The Great Doctor). We will see if he will be loyal or cop out. I hope he will do the right thing. I don't anything bad to happen to him. He and Luna would be just a couple of Debbie Downers.
