Seunghyun is definitely in love with Yuta but refuses to acknowledge it SO BADLY that he really believes that he hates the guy. Yuta, on the other hand, tries to downplay how much he loves Seunghyun but in reality he is madly in love with him given how hurt he was when Seunghyun did not come back for him. I also think that there are a lot of similar reasons why they are this way, one is the internalized homophobia as they are both straight before meeting each other, and they are both too prideful for their own good that they do not want to back down without manipulating each other into submission. And just like what Seunghyun mentioned, in the Yakuza, bedding another man is a form of dominating the one who “takes it”, not for pleasure, not for anything else. Which led to him being somewhat opposed to sleeping with Yuta in the first place. Let’s just be blind that the chapter where they almost had sex in the hot springs did not happen LMAO
