Why Guwon did kill Jinwoo's Father

Okay, wait I wanna share my take on why Guwon killed Jinwoo’s father

In chapter 24 we see people outside, and to me, there are only two options:

Either it was the Hounds, which makes sense because they’re
the ones who go on supply runs, and Guwon would’ve been tagging along with them,
Or it was just random bandits.

We also know there was no water in the apartment,
So Jinwoo’s father goes out to get some… which most likely means stealing it.

Now here’s the key point:

We know for a fact that Guwon tracked him down and killed him.
So the question isn’t if it was targeted - it’s why.

If those people were the Hounds, then the water he took belonged to their group, and Guwon being there means he would’ve known exactly what was stolen and who took it.

and if they were random bandits, then Jinwoo’s father was probably running away, stumbled onto Guwon’s supplies, and still ended up stealing his water.

So either way, it always leads back to the same conclusion:
The water belonged to Guwon (and the Hounds).

which explains why he tracked him down and killed him — it wasn’t random, it was because of the theft.

And this also lines up with what we’ve already seen in the story, like Woojun’s father being killed for stealing.

because if it wasn’t his water… then his actions don’t really make sense
He’s not shown to kill people for no reason, especially not in such a targeted way.

I’ve seen the theory that maybe Jinwoo’s father was already a zombie when Guwon killed him, and honestly… I kinda wish that was the case lol

But yeah, no matter how you look at it, it always circles back to the same thing:

he got killed for stealing water — specifically Guwon’s
