To me, it seems like they're blinded more by their guilt (and wanting to ease that), their desire for vengeance & justice, and maybe even their own morality.
Not that these are inherently bad things, but I believe it has inhibited them from fully planning this out in a way that could've had better outcome =/
do they not realize that without Guwon keeping the hounds in check, they're gonna be in an even worse situation if the hounds have no master to obey?!! I don't agree with Guwon's system, but you get what you get when he's the one with the strength to provide and protect. In an ideal scenario tho, Guwon would learn to keep running the town without the violence and unnecessary killings. cuz I do sympathize with the towns people wanting to live with some dignity and humanity, even if survival is the priority. sigh. I actually feel really bad for them.
