Ji-woo's failed dates

So every time Ji-woo went out with a woman following Seh-hee's disappearance, something happened to prevent them from getting together. You can clearly see it as Suh-hee following him around and causing things to go badly, but I'm not sure that this makes sense in every case. Ok, she threw a rock through the window at a love motel (nevermind that there's no way she could have known which room they were in) and I guess she accosted the woman in the bathroom, but what did she say to the woman in the bathroom? And what about the girl he met and went shooting with, did Seh-hee have something to do with driving her off as well? Did she prevent the girl his friend gave Ji-woo's number to from calling him as well? Or did this have nothing to do with her at all, simply that Ji-woo was almost expecting things to not work out at that point, so they didn't?

Of course after Ji-woo disappears, similar things happen to Seh-hee, such as the guy having a flashlight shined in his face and being beaten up in his hallway. The only conclusions we can come to are that Ji-woo is doing the same thing Seh-hee was earlier, or that this is all a coincidence, correct?

Thoughts?

Yes I agree, she just knew he didn't like her so she found an easy way to end it.

Hmm.. you bring up a good point about the girl at the shooting range. I totally forgot about her. I too had come to the conclusion that See Hee was sabotaging his attempts to meet new women, but I can't think of an explanation why the shooting range girl walked away from him like that, at least not an explanation that includes See Hee.
While I was watching the movie I noticed she looked sad and had tears in her eyes as she was walking and I guessed that she did like him, but could sense that he wanted to date her for the wrong reasons. Or maybe she was hoping he would call out her name, or come running after her... but he didn't. Probably because deep down he didn't want her, he wanted See Hee.

You can clearly see from the way they interacted with each other during the date that he was not into her. She even asked if he would rather be talking to the other girl in the group, jokingly but in a way not jokingly either. At the end she was probably just thinking, "what's the point?"
