* [[ChildhoodFriends Jumin and V's relationship in general.]] No matter what, they never lose faith in each other. Jumin constantly reiterates his faith in V even when nobody else does. In the Common Route of Another Story, V and Jumin often talk very affectionately about their friendship and how close they are. They notice things about each other that no one else does, such as Jumin noting V was flustered during the prologue chat to the other characters' surprise.
** An early morning chatroom on Day 2 is V and Jumin just being bros. Highlights include reminiscing about the past, V affectionately calling Jumin out for being drunk, and Jumin insisting V is the same person he's always known despite Yoosung saying he's changed.

* There are ''many'' heartwarming moments in V's After Ending, but none can top Seven's reaction to being [[spoiler:reunited with Saeran. Having previously assumed that Saeran was dead and, even when Rika confirmed there was a chance of Saeran's survival, didn't expect to ever see him again, the tearful joy Seven expresses upon seeing Saeran is absolutely ''adorable.'']]

* Doubling as a CrowningMomentOfAwesome. [[spoiler:After so long, [[TheDogBitesBack Saeran went against Rika]] in day 10 of his route and called her out on her manipulations and how she treated the believers of Mint Eye is just the same as how her parents once treated her. But this one line was particularly sweet, as it's about how he could finally find his happiness with you, the player. When Rika tried to convince him to come back to her side, he's having none of it and chose you instead, later rescuing you just in time to prevent you from being brainwashed]].

* Remember the CruelTwistEnding in [[spoiler:Seven's After End? Secret End 2 basically makes it a reality, with Saeran being saved, getting help, and reconciling with his brother. It ends with all members of the RFA taking a photo together--including Saeran.]] Most definitely a case of EarnYourHappyEnding.

* While it also falls under TearJerker territory, Jumin's UndyingLoyalty towards V is this, [[spoiler:especially when V leaves the RFA in Seven's route. He's the only member that believed in V 'til the very end, even when everyone else was angry at him for keeping the truth from them. Not to mention that in Secret 001, ''Jumin himself'' went with his armed forces to Mint Eye's headquarters because he knew there was a chance that V was there (since Seven used V's cellphone to send the distress coordinates).]]

* In Zen's route, after his reputation is trashed by Echo Girl, Zen goes to his secret place in the mountains and Jumin personally follows him there. After they meet, he once again offers Zen a modeling job, only this time he takes his allergy into consideration and suggests modeling for the teacup brand instead of the cat food commercial. When Zen asks why would Jumin still want to work with him when his reputation is in jeopardy, Jumin answers that, no matter what mistakes they make, you don't turn your back on family, and RFA, including Zen, is a [[TrueCompanions second family]] to him. Zen is obviously touched and says that he wanted to have a family but has already had one. And then he agrees to model for the cat food commercial as thanks for Jumin's loyalty, and for the first time the two talk like friends (with Jumin even ''laughing'' and then saying that he hasn't laughed in a long time, and Zen admitting that he's having fun). The whole scene is as touching as it could be.

* Multiple elements of V's route, but the final scene may be the most remarkable. [[spoiler:On Day 11, V tells you that he is going to leave and spend some time finding himself, partially because he ''wants'' to love someone in a healthy way but doesn't know if he can. The last scene takes place at the next RFA party, two years after the cancelled one on Day 11. He shows up and says he missed you and that he wants to choose you now, with an absolutely stunning smile on his face]].
* The entire story of [[spoiler:V's mother]] is a tragic one, but it's undeniably heartwarming to hear him say that [[spoiler:she will be guiding him and that the memory of her love will be his "sun" from now on. A parent's love ''should'' be unconditional and even a little annoying, in a way romantic love really shouldn't be]].

** Jumin and V's friendship is explored deeper in V's route, where it shows that it was Jumin who convinced V to 'rebel' against his father and make up his own opinions about his mother, who has been estranged from V's family all his life. This leads to V and his mother reconciling and V gaining his interest in photography and the arts.

He opens up to you about his troubled past and the insecurities he [[BigEgoHiddenDepths hides behind his ego]], despite the fact that he's obviously nervous about doing so.
