I think despite technically being put in that situation by Jae-oh, the new kid has enough tenacity to put aside his own situation and get help for our sweet boy. I think he's aware that Je-oh's approach to his situation wasn't out of malice, but rather out of a place of mutual understanding.
I feel like maybe he'll have a part in breaking Je-oh out of the establishment or playing a big role later
It's just the audacity of everyone around him tbh
"You crazy son of a bitch"
