I’m confused

Idk man. Everyone seems to hate Guwon but i feel like this hate is very surface level. Like something in my gut tells me there is more to the story. Idk if I believe that Guwon killed the dad, it just doesn’t make sense. Or if he did, he did so because the dad was going to kill the mc (forgot his name lol). Mc has missing memories so i can’t really rely on him as a solid narrator until he gets back his memories.

Guwon is a puzzling character. He is neither good nor bad. He is blank. He reminds me of Frankenstein’s monster. A curious thing that is molded by its environment to become a monster. The hounds seem to have a backing in how Guwon is thinking. Idk, I just can’t seem to cuss him out and believe he is evil because the story’s surface has barely been scratched.


Overall, I’m not going to hate Guwon until he is proven guilty. Innocent until proven guilty ig. But I’m going to trust the author considering ahjuicy from their other story was a green flag. This story is too ambiguous with way too many unknown factors and hard to read characters for me to simply start hating anyone until they certainly do something worthy of hate

    Yeah! Definitely, MC is an unreliable narrator, his inner monologues are actually quite contradictory through out the story, because his sense of cohesiveness is deeply damaged by his broken memories. And I love the fact that you linked Guwon to the Creature in Frankenstein, he is really sharp and intelligent but that doesn't mean he is knowledgeable, he is for me, a very morally neutral character, if anything a chaotic lawful, as he seems to create rules in his brain and adheres to it no matter what, from his standpoint he is doing his best, for the reader it depends on your own reflections upon the character, and for the people of the town who have known a world before the apocalypse he is a tirant, but Guwon gained his freedom thanks to the apocalypse his experiences and sense of self starts evolving from apocalyptic stand point, he isn't gonna have the same rules as a human who grew up knowing a sane world. So even if he is proven to be the murderer of MC's father, I do not if I will be able to impart a judgement upon him, I'm also willing to trust the author and enjoy the ride.

    Very! He seems easily persuaded and manipulated too. He believed Guwon at first, and listened to him. Then started to doubt him only after people put those doubts in his mind. He is weak willed mentally and doesn’t have memories so I can’t trust his narration
