Wanted to share my thoughts, i think no more eurydice kind've questions where we get our identity and person from through music, you can take it literally when heejae complains about Garam not having a sound but said sound is also quite literally a person's essence. We all have our own sounds even if we don't express them through music. Heejae is shown as a selfish, conniving, and manipulative character(lowkey true) but his sound and essence doesn't lie in his humanity. He has cast societal rules away for striving to keep his legacy and I don't really understand where such a fear comes from, but we see in said moment where fear is revealed that Heejae doesn't even really respect himself? His sound, his purpose, his essence no matter what reason lies in music, so he wants music to continue the way HE wishes it to (through Han Garam). His obsession with this preservation of music in all its glory is heejae's one formidable cause(if you ignore his methods to achieve it). Ch.82 is I think a confirmation of the fact that heejae's soul literally resides in his music, it's a one way ticket to understanding him, and vice versa could be said about Garam. Heejae's love for Garam's Jeux d'eau isn't reciprocated in any way on Garam's part, therefore heejae is the only one who has truly put time and effort into their relationship(?) Whilst Garam has ignored all human aspects of Heejae, and this is the reason why he's been slowly destroyed by Garam. What was at first unintentional denial of a person, has now morphed into a full on battle between the two and I love it.
