Breaking up with your partner because of dreams... is a part of youth too. It's telling you that things like this can happen, and I think Dodal's break up scene is relatable to those who went through it. (I've seen couples experienced such..)
yes, your partner is important, but if you're still young, future and visions come first.. in Dodal's case, Dalmi knew that Dosan would not go because he wouldn't want to go to SF without Dalmi. Not to go to SF means to terminate the contract, which means they have to pay -
the penalty. and if they can't or don't want to pay the penalty, they have to go through a lawsuit.. like Saha-nim said, it could take years, it's exhausting, with no guarantee. A hindrance to their "future". So, Dalmi had to break up with Dosan.. for their future.
letting go your partner for the sake of both's future is not an easy thing to do.

I like the differences from how Dalmi thinks about Dosan and how Dosan thinks about himself.
Dalmi is telling him that he's one of a kind. it's like telling someone that you're lucky and a genius to get that one spot in a prestigious university where everyone is competing for.
how Dosan feels about himself:
(please don't accuse me for making assumptions, you can watch again.)

He's only thinking about him and dalmi. but his words here.. 'any two people'? it could also be applied to anyone and everyone.not only for two of them.
from dosan's response above, I feel like the chances the were talking about were not on the same page. and it's not apple to apple.

not let's proceed to what Dosan thinks of himself:
what I question here is why do he feel worthless over something that's trivial? is his inferiority complex a result of him having cheated in the past? or is it because of his jealousy to someone who knows metaphor, differences of dessert fork/salad fork (ring a bell?) ? -
no matter how much tried to understand Dosan, I still cannot figure out why he feels that way. (i need to ask the writer). Dalmi clearly didn't expect Dosan to be the genius that excels in everything. She already likes the Dosan that's only good in coding.

so that's why..
yes, I know Dosan didn't want to give up to Noongil and SST team.. but staying also means = exhausting road of the lawsuit. you'll lose more than you'll gain, and there's no guarantee.
and Dalmi's answer shows how she truly is. she's someone who's willing to go out of her comfort zone to find another path.

and in contrast, Dosan didn't want to give up his comfort zone.

another message y'all: you need to go out of your comfort zone. (a lesson for me too 😭)
this thread has become too long. to shorten it, the sequence of the scenes that follows are Dalmi's way to convince Dosan to go.

I really hope Dalmi was sincere when she said this (because I really think she's the type that'd prioritize career over love). this is an empowerment.
