I like how Eunsan is someone who seems like he's going to have some sort of misunderstanding arc, but then he (usually) breaks out of this dumb bottom archetype by actually using his brain and thinking about a situation from all angles. Like he nearly thinks and overthinks himself to death on a lot of things but at least he's THINKING like damn... Like obviously things don't line up you KNOW Ian likes you too much to just have some rando on his back.
However jealousy is a disease and he's suffering from it hard. But I think a lot of his doubts stem from his low self-esteem issues, because deep down inside he knows how much Ian values him, but it seems as if he still has difficulties believing or accepting it. He overthinks because he can't possibly fathom that someone would devote themself that deeply to him. He puts the blame of his divorce on himself, sees himself as damaged goods, burnt out and past his prime, too late to return to the rink, and he probably struggles with abandonment issues because of his relationship with his father and ex-wife....
Ian is someone who is the direct antithesis to this thought process; the man basically tells him that he is worth everything and more. I think trying to deprogram Eunsan from this mindset will be difficult fr.
