The hallway scene in chapter 74 is remembered differently in Yuwon’s pov Dohun was instead standing besides him not behind him and gets hit. This is a very clear look at how vividly Yuwon can write Dohun into his story, while Dohun’s POV would prove he didnt follow the script. When Yuwon helps him up his hands are conveniently covering “Dohun’s” name tag. They are later brought in for questioning for the death of the first bully and the night they were locked in the storage room was mentioned as apart of the investigation. As previously mentioned in part one memory and reality seem to bleed across both of their povs making it harder to grasp what’s actually happening in the moment.
In Yuwon’s pov apart from the obvious identity confusion or rather the assigned role disarray he projects, every core event did happen and technically everything spoken has been said but again memory and reality clash when events are told from his pov you can’t trust who says what or the actual timeline these were actually said. At the center of this distortion is his suppressed memories of him being the victim and the surrounding suspicion of Dohun’s involvement or lack thereof.
While Dohun does provide a more reliable narration for whatever reason he’s missing a massive portion of their shared past. There are gaps in his pov that are crucial moments in Yuwon’s and little details that are quietly forged to keep him in frame: neither recalls who actually spilled the soda on the bullies but a bruise magically appears on his face that Yuwon pointed out was already there before the bully threw the can, Dohun has no memory of them sitting together after the seating rearrangement, the scenes we don’t see Yuwon’s face from his memories strike me as odd too, he wasn’t brought in for questioning either despite supposedly being in the storage room with Yuwon. He wasn't even a suspect… Furthermore, the very pivotal scene where Yuwon tells him he wants the bullies dead wasn’t shown either but brought up three seperate times in Yuwon’s memories. This disconnect made me question whether a lot of their memories were actually shared with each other. All these absent details in Dohun’s recollection leave us with one missing variable: who was Yuwon really with?
The thin line between memory, reality, truth and lie can be drawn by the yellow tags. But it raises the question: what clues are we left with when those tags are completely absent? For instance, when they are in their gym uniforms, when they were shown in the basement studio, at their part time jobs or when Dohun was with his family? I theorize when the tags display their names it shows some truth but when they appear blank it signals both of their attempts at erasing certain key moments and an even more desperate attempt at erasing a certain person to fit a narrative they’ve created: that Yuwon still moves without thinking for Dohun. I also concluded that the blank tags shows when a character step into another’s role. Here are the roles I know are for certain: The Victim, The Hero and The Bystander. I wonder if the 4 tulips have anything to do with this of course none of those roles would exist without a fourth role, The Villian. They are also the shade of yellow the name tags were idk I believe Dohun followed what Yuwon says to him about minding his own business from the very beginning starting from the day he first transfers and a hidden character acts as his stand in for the role of hero while he played the role of bystander.
