tVn's Start-Up already ended but it is still causing a buzz among fans of the drama.
According to a report by All Kpop, Start-Up fans still can't get over Suzy's character Dal Mi ending up with Nam Do San, the character played by Nam Joo Hyuk.
As a result, #HanJiPyeong, the name of the character played by Kim Seon Ho, as well as #TeamGoodBoy trended social media channels in Korea after fans pointed out the reasons that he should have ended up with the girl.
According to Team #HanJiPyeong supporters, Kim Seon Ho's character showed a selfless kind of love for Dam Mi, protecting her and supporting her even when he did not yet know her real identity.
Fans also said that Ji Pyeong was Dal Mi's first love. Typically, in Korean dramas, the lead female character ends up with someone she shares a history with. Fans said that Ji Pyeong was the one who helped her become the person that she was.
They pointed out that without Ji Pyeong's encouragement, she would not have the courage to realize her dreams. Han Ji Pyeong supporters shared that Ji Pyeong prioritized Dal Mi's happiness above his own, not confessing about being her pen pal because he did not want her to be disillusioned by his lie.
Fans cited the compatibility between Dal Mi and Ji Pyeong and pointed out how attuned they were to each other's opinions. They said that Nam Do San quickly reacted to even the slightest comment and charged it with ill intentions.
Han Ji Pyeong's efforts were not lost on Start-Up followers. They cited the multiple times Ji Pyeong helped Dal Mi with her pitches, questionnaires, and other challenges that led to her success. He was also mature enough to step out of the picture when Do San returned for Dal Mi, simply because he knew that she loved him and would be happy with his rival.
It seems that Kim Seon Ho's maturity is something to admire whether it is on or off-screen.

He said that his decisions made him who he was, whether it was good or bad. He advised his fans not to agonize over their decisions and wallow in regret.
