I think Nakyum has love for him and not stockholm syndrome but I still can't forgive Seungho at all (obviously). I just think thalt the author is going to make Nakyum have actual feelings for him even though the relationship is beyond toxic. But idk maybe they won't end up together because his feelings were like the suspension bridge effect and it was foreshadowing.
He does not love him, he really doesn’t. What on God’s green Earth has happened for him to fall in love? He only “loves” him after he heard his confessions whilst he was in a severely vulnerable state. This is a text book presentation of Stockholm Syndrome, point blank period. There is no love in this relationship but a manipulator and a captive who has fallen prey. He has been raped on numerous occasions against his will, and mind you this whole event started because Seungho wanted to fulfil his selfish desires and probably planned to have his way with him at some point in another.This is not love, this is a survival instinct
But didn't he like him before that? I remember but I might be wrong where he has signs of loving Seungho. Like his heart beating not out of fear and somethings else. I don't approve of it but the author might've made Nakyum genuinely love him. That's what I see a lot in these toxic relationships even if it is point blank stockhalm syndrime However, after this chapter, that might not be the case because the sister was explaining to him why it wouldn't be. I really don't know what would've maee him fall in love with Seungho, I'm just toing off experience with these type of stories.
i hope none of y’all think that nakyum’s “feelings” are actually love... don’t go switching up now from that “i just can’t forgive seungho” narrative just bc nk is literally suffering from stockholm syndrome
