Maybe him outing him was to create distance between cheol and his family but it ended up going awry and having the opposite effect. Then that would mean moving on to plan b where he leaves and gains money and all that to become someone that could give him anything
All speculation (could be something else entirely)
They genuinely wanted cheol dead and it's so sad to imagine that he was never free for 40 years (he is 40 right?)











Needed a break GOD IT DOESN'T GET BETTER!?!? that's what I got from the comments it's not even heavy angst yet but there is something so melancholic and bittersweet about everything that tears keep slipping out
IM SICK! the yearning is insane. To want something and deny it for yourself in order to survive I can't
I cried a river reading this lol
