Personal opinion by nishka
A Letter to Oh SehunI, for one, appreciate letters - they request sincerity and a glint of insanity. You would expect that the fore mentioned letter would be a love one - who could have guessed differently? "A Letter to Oh Sehun" - the title itself leaves a lingering trail of enigma. Why "A Letter"? Have there been many others? Was this the first one, was it the sole one? Why this particular one, why this particular person?
The story intrigues me. It was a letter - true to its sense. It was heartbreaking and raw, as anything written to an old love. Maybe it's about love, too, but mostly about suffering and sacrifice. The author of the letter says it all without any fear, writes it all black on white, pours it all - from the moment he met her until the moment he didn't wish to see her again, from the moment he salvaged her until the moment he abandoned her. The experiences are traumatic - for her, for anyone, at that point, but somehow, it's a silent letter of a survivor. The main character is strong, she doesn't write it as an apology, she doesn't write it for an explanation, but mostly as an ending of a chapter in her life. She writes to the man she had loved, but also to the man she had fallen out of love. She end with wishes of happiness, not with bitter regret. She has found her path despite it all. She wishes for him to find the same.
