That led to him getting 7 extras.
It's not that it really concerns me,
and it's not that we're so close I feel the pain,
It's just how realistic this world is.
I really wonder if even the law abiding JY, that, I would agree as well, maintains that he's doing his job by nabbing JH, would change his decision and the situation if he knows JH personally; or even better, it was me or Kang instead of JH.
Because I sense a feeling of doubt and hesitation and struggle from JY when he came to know that the person he caught was his good friends' friend and that he was severely punished.
Some things we do, we do it because we were told to do, and we reason that it is the correct thing to do; perhaps because we were taught that that is the "right" that we should uphold since inception. And it becomes a sort of sub-conscious mindset that's numbed within us and we apply what we define as "logical" actions.
And the best part of it all is, human, being highly intellectual, changes this "logic" so flexibly that when we look from an alternate perspective, we have the ability to adapt and tweak.

Don't understand?

We were told that as a guard, we confiscate illegal items.
That is logical; and that's our job scope.
But we as soldiers who also stay and work in the camp,
know that doing guard is a "part-time" job.
We all know we don't wanna be the person getting caught,
and so we don't really catch people whom we know
(that is, if we know there's no consequences on us).
But JY,
he really haven't been part of the people working inside the camp.
Guard duty, is not a "part-time" job,
so it is understandable that he do not sympathize with people within.
For me, I once rejected a senior's entry via motorcycle without a vehicular pass;
and that is only because I do not understand the hassle behind as I've never done it before.

You get my point now?
