It's like everyone is playing dumb. Yes both of them did assault him but let's be so for, out of the two only Hyunwoo is the good option...
Iltak been scared and disgusted by orange hair the WHOLE time because of straight up bullying and harrassment. Orange hair didn't just SA him, he beat him up too. To the point where he was scared of disobeying him and he almost got Iltak killed out of jealousy....
The reason why the SA scene with Hyunwoo hurts is because he felt safe with him and he overstepped his boundary and betrayed him. Even if Iltak realized he liked it when Hyunwoo touched him, it wasn't right.
Even tho Iltak was chasing after that man to be 'friends', they ALWAYS had sexual tension between them. Iltak is a closeted gay and gets off of his partner being manly, protective and otherwise submissive to/for him. IYKYK
Yellow hair haired guy was also disgusted with the black haired guy at some point too… when black haired guy tried to kiss him in the very first confession scene, after words the yellow haired guy showed a disgusted face and called him disgusting… I think everyone just forgets about it…. both options are bad but even though black haired one is a little worse it doesn’t discount what he did
In my opinion everyone is horrible including the yellow haired twink lol
That was because he was still homophobic even before that, he was only the literally being turned on by just SMELLING hyunwoos sweat. Literally was squirming every time he smelled his clotheshe was just in denial about it. What hyunwoo did was wrong but it does not compare to what hyungjoo did which was literally tormenting iltak all the time to the point that he wouldn’t even be able to EAT during lunch.
Everytime I reread this manhwa I keep seeing how much Hyunwoo loves his twink and how badly hyunjoo fumbled.... Sorry Iltak's man was chosen from the very first second. Hyunjoo would make a great friend though since they have similar interests/ hobbies. But Iltak's man always protects him
Spoiler: in the next chapter, Hyunwoo does the hardwork again; he stops the bleeding, brings him to the hospital and lays by his bedside. Iltak woke up and pet his future husband








So I'm rereading for the millionth time and I just caught glimpse of something. When Eve and Gozu took a bathe in the 'holy' spring, the talking horse did say their role was to BLESS the saintess with the power to heal based on what he thought was love/purity. What's insane was they showed glimpses of her and she looked EXACTLY like Eve but with big bust and apparently a different eye colour. At the time they were bathing and the horse guy peeked he ended up 'healing' Gozu's wounds by seeing their pure sight of love..... What if the saintess is based off of whoever bathes in the spring. The game missed a lot of details which is why they didn't know much about the magician on the hero's team as well. What if Eve took a bath in the lake before and this time because Gozu caught the eye of the horse guy instead of Eve, the new saintess looks like him.
Now regarding the power to heal, hypothetically when it was Eve, he couldn't be blessed with that power at all because he's the demon king and it came from the Goddess. But what if because it was Gozu this time that Gozu has the power and doesn't know it. Which is why the new saintess doesn't have any...
Honestly dumb theory but just thinking out loud
