My take on this story so far: The "S" girl gained Somi as a gopher quite awhile ago, and perhaps learned of Young's existence through her. Why did she use Somi as a gopher? No idea, except maybe she's just a manipulative bitch with time to kill. S gets some dirt on Somi and forces her to do increasingly bad stuff, to the point that Somi is ready call it quits, but she can't because she's afraid that S will reveal some personal stuff to the school. S then decides she needs a new gopher, but because she doesn't want to be implicated in any of the dastardly deeds she forced Somi to do, she decides to get rid of Somi, and make it seem like a suicide. S messages Somi with something like "all is forgiven, come to the rooftop, etc.". She then pushes Somi to her death. Now, she's forcing Young to do the same things she did with Somi, realizing that the two have similar, easily-manipulated personalities. There's strong symbolism indicated with the trees and strangling vines; the reference to the tree branch futilely attempting to escape the vines is a correlation between the current relationship between S and Somi at that time.
It's obvious that Somi confided quite a bit to S, and that information was used against her in the end. Both Somi and Young are stupid for allowing someone who is a blatant manipulator into their lives; S gave Young a backhanded threat right at the start, and Young should have spilled everything to Somi's mother and school right then and there. But, we wouldn't have a story if it were that simple, heh.

The MC is so weak willed...
It's obvious S is training her for further mischief. She's slowly boiled, like the frog.
S is probably someone who hates successful, or "quiet" girls with a passion and wants to wreck havoc and destroy them. She probably has a past herself of being bullied or abused.
This manhua is trying to deconstruct the methods of manipulators. At least for now.

@DevLogger I think your theory makes a lot of sense, especially considering the latest update where we find out that
there's more people being manipulated by S

The implications here are so fucking obvious. Being boiled/steamed like a frog. Start with the little things, and they'll never know that they're slowly being boiled. Yi Young is being conditioned by this manipulative bitch, and things will slowly escalate without her having even noticed until it's too late.
At the end of the day, lesson here is don't be a weak willed bitch. If you do, you'll only fuck yourself over, as well as possibly other people as well. Easier said than done because teenagers are so fucking volatile in their emotional well-being, and so concerned with social acceptance that it'll lead them stress to the point of death or do things a rational person wouldn't do for the sake of social acceptance.
