I’m going to read it again, but currently Minyeong and Cheol are 36 years old. They met when they were seventeen and dated until they were 22. That is when Minyeong told Choel’s father that he is gay. When confronted Choel ran away and didn’t speak to his family for approx four years until he got married, I say four years because Cheol said running away from Minyeong for fourteen years and Choel was married for ten. The reason why I’d say Minyeong is tactician is because instead of apologizing, he made a fifteen year plan and only introduced himself 14 years within that plan. He wants to hurt everyone that hurt Choel. Minyeong said he won’t make the same mistake again, hence why I think Minyeong made a mistake with one of his plans. In one of Choel’s memories, he says, “Minyeong wouldn’t lie about that” or something similar. Minyeong doesn’t change. He’s obsessed with Choel and wants to hurt anyone that hurts him except for himself. Jaehee knew or at least insinuated that he knew about Minyeong and Choel and he’s Choel’s stalker, I feel like there’s a connection, but I’m not sure,
Correction: He said, Minyeong’s lying. Not that he wouldn’t lie about that. Jaehee could have been the catalyst to make the obsessive power bottom, Minyeong do something drastic in hopes of trying to save Choel. That’s been one of his main objectives throughout this story. A true manipulative tactic is to isolate someone so they’re entirely yours and dependent on you,
Ooooo wait you're so big brained, I never thought of that! It does seem really weird and out of character for Minyoung to out Cheol to his father who he knows is abusive. I'm sure he also had to have known the Cheol wouldn't be okay with it. Like you said, Minyoung's whole mission is to keep Cheol on his side and solely depending on him.
I totally get what you're saying. Something must've went wrong and Jaehee seems like a total wildcard since we don't know his intentions or anything.
Thanks for indulging me and sharing your theory!

As much as I love the smut this chapter, I’m trying to figure out if that stalker Ryu Jaehee that Jeong Cheol saved twice is the indirect reason Ji Min-young told his father that Cheol’s gay. Min-young is a tactician. He always has a plan. I thought at first he did it because he wanted to find a way to get Cheol to runaway to him, while getting him out of his toxic home situation, but then the author introduced this Jaehee.
