How are these characters related? Like Tai and Jun? I guess Win is Jun's best friend, and Sorn is Tai's best friend, who likes Jun. Someone who has read the book or understands better, please help me understand. More like A and B are brothers, cousins, or family friends. It's a bit confusing.
DaOn is probably so traumatized because these two individuals basically represent half of his life at this point. since High School, through University and to Working life.
Same. Firstly, he beat up the other guy because of what he was doing to Da On. That seems like a fair reaction…
Su Hyeon has, really?! I know he can be aggressive at times, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen him directly assault Da On. I must be colour-blind because I’m not seeing the bright red I’m supposed to see in him.
I don't think they had sex. It looks like Da On slept on the couch, and Su Hyeon slept on the bed. But he could…
I think the only time it truly counts as hurting Seong Hyeon was when Da On called out Jaemin's name while they were kissing. Otherwise, he has been doing his best to get to know Seong Hyeon. However, Da On is fully aware of the power and influence of those around him and how far they would go to get rid of Seong Hyeon.
In trying to protect Seong Hyeon from Su Hyeon, this was the only option—to make it seem as if Seong Hyeon means nothing to him. We can also see that this behaviour is eating him up inside. For example, he was still thinking about Seong Hyeon while Su Hyeon possessively kissed him.
Additionally, Da On seems deeply traumatised by the fact that Su Hyeon can violently bash someone's head and feel no remorse, believing he is protecting Da On. That’s why, whenever Su Hyeon threatens to do something, Da On always experiences that flashback.
I honestly believe Da On is trying to protect Seong Hyeon in the only way he knows how.
Same. Firstly, he beat up the other guy because of what he was doing to Da On. That seems like a fair reaction to such an ordeal. Secondly, he has been trying everything to just protect Da On. Although he was deceived or manipulated by the people around him, his mother and Jaemin. And now he realizes that in trying to protect the one he genuinely loves, he ended up losing him. I'm pretty sure he is going through the most.
Also I think DaOn is particularly a red flag. Man had a nice date with Seong Hyeon and then went and had sex with…
I don't think they had sex. It looks like Da On slept on the couch, and Su Hyeon slept on the bed. But he could have tried to stop that possessive kiss as they entered the apartment.
- The male lead, Paik Sa Eon, was adopted at a very young age to replace the original child. - The original Paik Sa Eon showed psychopathic tendencies from a young age, such as killing animals and fish out of curiosity. This original version of Paik Sa Eon was Sang Woo's friend. Sang Woo, thinking it was fun to hang out with the original Paik Sa Eon, introduced him to the other kids, including the twins. - The original Paik Sa Eon either killed the other kids or faked his own death after being abandoned by his family. It’s possible the missing kids ended up being raised in a harmful or neglectful environment. - One of the twins may now be working as the adopted Paik Sa Eon’s assistant, seeking revenge. However, since the adopted Paik Sa Eon is extremely private, the assistant might not realize that the person they are targeting is not responsible for the twin’s disappearance or the other children’s fates. - It seems the adopted Paik Sa Eon was forcibly drowned by an adult as a child. This traumatic experience may have caused him to lose his early childhood memories (likely from more than 20 years ago). - The original Paik Sa Eon and the other missing kids may have formed a group with the original as the leader. Together, they might be seeking revenge on the parents who abandoned them, targeting the adopted Paik Sa Eon in the process. - One confusing point is Paik Sa Eon’s grandfather publicly praising the adopted Paik Sa Eon as the one who resembles him the most, especially in contrast to his disappointment in his own son. How could he say this when the adopted Paik Sa Eon is, in fact, adopted?
