i feel like it symbolizes their pasts... Garam's gloves were Heejae's first gift to him while Heejae's gloves weren't even given to him by Garam + they've got a sour attachment to the ex manager. Like, Heejae is Garam's "first" but Garam isn't Heejae's "first" yet despite that they wear them and hold eachother with them
Agree, they have a codependent relationship that is intensified by the fact that Garam doesn't have any other close relationships. We've seen 3 years of his life so far, and he really has no close friends or people he can talk to freely, aside from Heejae. His yearning hurts sometimes because Heejae is his world... and all he has.
I feel like Garam is filling his mind with empty platitudes. We always see Heejae being his worst, obsessive self to hide his insecurities but Garam seems more lonely. ALSO, WHATS WITH THE GLOVES? I feel like I am missing something. And I sometimes feel like Heejae still sees or finds his ex manager in Garam and I dont like it at all.
