I did some research on the purpose of hounds originally, and the tale of Sisyphus (in Greek Mythology). Somehow, I’m getting maze runner vibes from all of this. This town seems like a controlled group, theoretically Sisyphus (Guwon’s) boulder to maintain.
Hounds historically have been used to hunt, gather, hold and maintain livestock or prey. This goes along with Guwons admission of seeing the townspeople as pets. A hound is a loyal servant to Guwon, and is entirely different than a pet to him (townspeople).
I believe this is a controlled or isolated incident, I’m veering towards a government controlled one. I do remember the apocalyptic outbreak outside the town, and I wonder if mc (I forgot his name) is a straggler of sorts. I’m spitballing here, but I imagine the town is basically a development maintained by the hounds that was built to keep Sisyphus (Guwon) entertained or no longer lonely as he continues his endless punishment.
