It could go that way, but their relationship makes it more complicated than simple revenge.
If Sam ever tried to kill CG because of that, CG might actually accept it, and even find some twisted sense of fulfillment in it. In his mind, whatever love he receives from Sam outweighs all the wrong choices he made to obtain it.
Excellent analysis. Cheong even offered to be stabbed by Sam-myeon during his escape. Anything Sam gives him, he will glad fully accept, except being away from his side. Crazy idea, one way to gain impactful leverage against Cheong would be for Sam to commit self-exit to scurr the King from following him.
once sam-myeon finds out his daughter is alive and you kept him away from her, he’s gonna kill you and i’m rooting for him
