I think they're both going back in time to when each of them are about the die.
Sunwoo goes back in time to when Gajun gets swallowed up by the monster or sometime before that...
Then Gajun of course goes back in time to the bus scene.
That just makes sense as to why Sunwoo is so sure with C-2 monster machine thing and why he's more unstable.
This is a really good plot btw.
Thought the same. I even guess the first time it was gajun that died and that's why seonwoo had protected and die instead in the many loops the mc had. And yeah he probably learn this in a loop but obviously then can come out safe, he's probably gonna sacrifica his life again so gajun get away from this place T_T
I was worried i was starting to emphasize with the guys for a while. That ending snapped me back to reality.
Now for chp 5, i think it was a bit reasonable. We are able to see it for what it is, disgusting and vile.
Of course it's gross. But it's good that it's portrayed gross, yk? The kid never liked it. He wasn't enjoying it like those shota mangas. He hates it.
The reality of his crime is a stark contrast to how the seme emotionally manipulates us, readers, into dumbing down his actions as a "trauma response". Bro never needed to that. It was all him.
So the author is intentionally showing to us how bad it is and how he needs to fucking die and go to jail. The author doesn't want u pity him. It's just a different perspective, even if it's the wrong one.
Well that's my take.
I don't think author did a good job with chapter 5. When the dad was licking his penis ,which was erected by the way and it's not possible for a child, he was reacting to it almost like enjoying. Look up boy meets maria there is csa scene and it's pretty graphic but it didn't felt sexualized at all.










Can't believe I've grown so unc. So this is what it feels to grow alongside a story, it's giving orv vibes
