Lord. Okay. So initially Ange's opinion on Soo-won was very simple--she thought that he was quite clever, a charmer, charismatic and very, very, very intelligent. That meant that he was super dangerous to someone like her, who deals in constant secrets. It was a stroke of good luck that she roomed with him the first week as far as she was concerned; it meant she could show him more of her ~cutesy girl persona~, while at the same time trying to get a better read on him as a person.
For the most part, it worked out. What she learned was that he was physically not as strong as he appeared due to his mysterious illness, but also that he was mentally a lot more dangerous than she'd first pinned him as. That was when she decided that she had to possibly work harder on Soo-won than just about anyone else. She wanted him to buy her cover and accept her as someone on his side, and that was her main motivation for seeking him out again and again.
Of course, as she got to know him, she started to realize that he wasn't the sort of person who would sell her out if she did share her true self with him, and early on she did consider it. If she hadn't murdered that week when she killed Raven, she might've come clean about her fake persona, because she knew fully well that Soo-won likely had a very good information network and she'd be able to learn a lot if she did that. It would be high risk-high reward. But she did kill Raven that week, and that was when she clamped down on all of her seconds 100% more, because as she told him (truthfully, for once), the moment you let a thread on an elaborate lie loose, the chances of that lie unraveling increase exponentially. Ultimately Ange decided that keeping her cover under wraps and her lies straight was more important than gaining the information Soo-won had, and so she told him nothing.
There's another reason that she didn't come clean to him, one that she didn't tell him because she doesn't want to admit it to herself. I'm going to drag you through Princess Principal so I'm not going to delve too deeply into this, but Soo-won reminded Ange tremendously, terribly of Princess. Blond royalty who Get Shit done, blond royalty who don't judge others and who hold onto their own moral code no matter what, blond royalty who impress her with their willingness to hold the world on their shoulders and step forward with all of that weight out of their own selflessness... well, suffice to say, she hated how much Soo-won reminded her of Princess. Some of the things Soo-won said were practically word for word things Princess has told Ange. Some of the things Soo-won did were things she could've easily imagined Princess doing. And Ange loves Princess with all of her heart and soul, so the moment she realized that was happening, she backed the fuck out of the whole situation.
She couldn't risk getting in too deep with someone who could make her mask slip a little just by being himself, just because he was so like her, and that was the other reason that Ange never could tell him anything. It's because ultimately, he was dangerous to her in a different way--not because of his smarts or his charms, but because he was so like Princess, and that's Ange's ultimate weakness. She could recognize it, and that is why she knew there was never a chance she could let the walls come down and work any closer with him, as her true self. It would've been too much for her.
So in the end, she tried very hard to keep her distance as soon as she realized what was happening. In another circumstance, in another situation, she probably would've liked talking to him; if the stakes hadn't been so high and the situation so dangerous, he would've been the sort of person that she would've been amazed to meet. As it is, she's amazed to know that there's another world that has someone like Princess, and she's sure that his world is in good hands because of it.
But she for one is going to leave him behind without a word of farewell, because she doesn't like how dangerous he ended up being to her, personally.
