I am SO invested in the story rn...

I'm so glad this is updating quickly because I'm just dying to find out what the hell is going on?!

Okay, so this latest update tells us that red head is STILL dating Hee Sung's younger brother after all this time?! Hee Sung doesn't even remember him and somehow he's involved with the top (not sexually, I just mean connected somehow) and is maybe the mastermind behind the whole fucked up situation going on over there? Apparently the top is also being held prisoner in there?

And any of you sympathizing with the top are simping. Yeah, he had a tragic past and is being held captive, that doesn't change anything. And I don't mean in the "what he did was bad" sense either, though that too, what I mean is that it was his obsession with Hee Sung, his choice to kidnap/rape/mind fuck/hypersexualize Hee Sung's body so he thinks he wants it. Red head does what he wants as long as he stays there and acts like a good boy, he wanted Hee Sung so he got him. Red head also just hates him, really fucked up even considering that detail that he's fine with all this happening to someone he hates, but I guess he just hates him THAT much.

I'll acknowledge the grey area here surrounding the top, because the implication is that he's mentally unwell. He's actually sort of child like, the story words this as "naive". He thinks his actions are okay, that he's just expressing his love to Hee Sung. He thinks all the kinky shit he's done to Hee Sung was to make him feel good and happy, he has that machine to validate his feelings that he's making Hee Sung feel good because he sees numbers that are supposed to indicate it feels good when that's really just physically. But think from Hee Sung's POV here... why should he care? Like come on guys, he's a third party. He didn't know this guy had feelings for him, had no say in what happened and he obviously wouldn't reciprocate given the homophobic showing we just saw. He's (the MC) an asshole, but at this point that's not even the point. He raped a homophobe and fucked him up mentally enough for him to become dependant on him (he's fighting it, but he's clearly caring what Jae yeun thinks of him now). It really shifted when he left him there for the whole day blindfolded and with the dildo in his ass. He started to break down, he experienced crazy loneliness till he just wanted him to answer and became hyper aware of his ass being empty from there.

I'm waiting to find out what's going on with the red head. It looked at first like the top and red head were criminals that do this stuff often. He kept giving the top advice and the top said no one has ever investigated him. What is going on?! Is red head a criminal? Is he actually just a high school connection dating MC's brother? Did he train the mentally unstable top to do all this to Hee Sung? How is the father involved? I get the feeling red head is hired by dad to keep the son quiet and out of sight since he was literally being experimented on.

I... kinda hate the red head. I get that his situation sucks, but what he did to both brothers is disgusting. Being a homophobe is not cool, neither is him outing his little brother, but it doesn't justify THIS. MC's just an asshole, that's all. He hasn't done anything yet to the point where it would push me to feel "whatever happens to him, he deserves it". He's just trash. It justified red head hating him, but that's it. People don't usually take "hate" to what we're seeing on screen. He's a psycho. He is lying to him about his brother leaving the country TO HIS FACE WHILE HE WORRIES ABOUT THE SAFETY OF HIS BROTHER while watching over the whole situation over there calmly. Are we supposed to feel bad for him? Because he just wants his boyfriend to be happy and he can't let go of his toxic brother? His brother was going to leave anyways. The bottom line here is that he loves his brother regardless of the bs, he doesn't want him being raped and mind and body fucked in captivity. Where is this going?! Because if Hee Sung is ever freed, surely he will find out who his brother is dating at some point and wonder why it's the guy he saw while held captive. Surely he'll eventually remember the guy from high school. Hee El will find out what he did to his brother. This just can't end well unless Hee Sung leaves and lives the rest of his life away from Hee El.

And if any of you think Hee Sung is like, "making progress" with the top. No. He was altered. He was not gay, he was literally ANTI-gay. He was mind fucked until he broke and is now dependant on him and his body is physically trained to want anal now. There's no implication so far that he was closeted or something, maybe in the future, but RN this is the story. He's being more lovable to him because of that, it's an illusion. He was trained. He was even actively fighting against being mentally trained and was still trained both mentally and physically. They could live the rest of their lives in a cozy countryside cabin making cute, sweet, "consensual" (since Hee Sung isn't fighting back and is even asking for it now) love and the reality of that would still be this dark shit. Maybe they will justify it by making Hee Sung closeted and this shit was necessary to make him accept that, but even that wouldn't really justify what happened since he doesn't NEED to accept it anyways. Why would he? Because the top loves him? Who cares? That's a personal problem.
