Heejae is constantly reminded of the manager because what happened between them was one of the biggest regrets of heejae's life. So whenever heejae is feeling vulnerable with garam, he'll remember the manager like a warning sign. It's like a cycle > he feels vulnerable, be it in happiness or anger > he lashes out at garam > he's reminded of the manager who left him > he's scared that garam will leave him because of that.

So it's not that garam is a replacement, it's just that heejae didn't have a lot of people he cares about in his life, and he's scared that he'll repeat the mistakes he did with garam (whom he loves, immensely)

Also, i love that heejae always plays chopin whenever he feels vulnerable/ exposed gggghhh so beautiful.

    You’re so mature for this realization that most people would see differently. I love your perspective on this and it makes sm sense to me too.

    What about chopin

    tofu July 24, 2026 1:53 am
    What about chopin GHOST

    Heejae is famous for his beethoven and rachmaninoff performances because they tend to be intense and flashy, just like his outward personality. His chopin on the other hand is more understated and "boring" for some people, but garam prefers it because he understands that heejae's chopin reflects his loneliness and vulnerability.

    Chopin was the first piece heejae played when they first came to his private residence in NY, depicting garam peeking into who heejae truly was. Watching heejae plays chopin on the stage for the first time was when garam completely fell for him. And listening to garam's drunk rant about the same chopin performance was also the first time heejae felt connection and kissed him. So yeah, chopin represents heejae's more delicate and sincere inner self, and his love for garam.

tofu July 23, 2026 7:48 pm

Please dont take this in the incest kind of way, but heejae saying "do you also treat your parents like this" to garam is definitely a deliberate choice by the author. Because heejae sees himself as garam's parent too, which he kinda is, he's garam's mentor first and foremost, and he's responsible for garam's life and career in america. That's why he never apologizes, and that's also why garam always tries to smooth things over even when he's not at fault. If you're asian and have strict parents you'll probably understand why their dynamic is like that. Because before they see themselves as lovers, they see themselves as "parent" and "child", and it's going to take a tremendous effort before they can feel like equals.

Conflict brewing aside, i really love the detail of intimacy in chapter 127. Heejae getting ready while nagging garam, heejae rubbing the leftover pomade on garam's hair so that it's all sticking up AND giving him a forehead smooch.......aaaaargh i love it so much.

Kim heejae is:
1. Rich
2. Talented
3. Hung
4. Banging han garam

Rereading season 2 and having a blast laughing at heejae cause that crusty tyrant of a professor had no clue he'd end up in some hotel, sulking cause he wasn't allowed to get a piece of garam's ass.... duck smoking and shaking his head.gif

tofu July 20, 2026 7:43 pm

Im an addict so ive been rereading some of the chapters i liked and one of my favorites is chapter 96 during debussy's la ville aux cheveux de lin. Seeing those tender and delicate panels while listening to the piano is so magical like.....i totally get why garam kissed heejae back then. You can't not be filled with affection, sitting shoulder to shoulder with someone so thorny like heejae and listening to him play such a sad, beautiful sound.
