But that's not true. The whole point of the coup (if we can call it that) was that the townspeople want to live on their own terms. Not having to vote for someone to die every time a rule is broken. Not having to watch people die because Guwon only lets the Hounds have medicine. That's why Jinwoo said that there will be many hardships without Guwon, but that they'd at least be free of Guwon's insane rules and rituals. They're choosing that path on purpose.
Then they should had just leave it makes sense for the hounds to get it because they actually are getting the supplies there is zombies, probably even cannibals outside don’t like the rules leave we literally saw what was outside just pile of rubbish no community the world is literally over.They couldn’t even shoot him imagine when they get outside facing real treats.

why would you try to kill the strongest person protecting you all
