This is definitely going to be for those that get it. I love this series because season 1 gave us something we’ve seen in other stories - re-encounter with rage sex due to unresolved conflict. But… the author panned out and gave us crumbs during season 1 to the characters and what got them where they were, then season 2 gave us the full picture. A character who desperately tried to create control in a world where every single adult failed him, a character grappling with unprocessed grief and unable to how to want something without fear, and a villain being the true illustration of poisoned inheritance. And neither lead nor villain are held responsible for what they did. honestly, Taeju catching him at the end was narrative perfection. I’m glad the season ended with this massive collapse of everything, the moment before truth starts replacing the narrative. I’m excited to see how things come to light and these two very broken boys feeling like they don’t deserve one another get to start over with equity and learn to love each other while reclaiming and rebuilding what was taken from them. 1000/10 stars
