I went back to read the previous season, because I hated what season 5 was doing and I wanted to remind myself of the good times..... You guys, the last chapter of the last season ends with Taesung treating Haebom roughly and literally asking himself "how is this any different from rape"? I hate to say it, but I think the seeds for the nonsense that is season 5 were always there. The author didn't have to go ahead and plant them and continue to ruin the story, but I think it's clear that they've wanted to for a while.
