I believe that Wei-Chen is the foil throughout the entire story. This is because Wei-Chen never purposely tries to make things more difficult for Jin, yet still reveals things about him.

The main character in Ordinary People, for example, has many flaws that arose after his brother was killed in a boating accident. Before the accident, he did not have such immense problems that led him to his attempt to kill himself.
