I have a follow up on this post about my speculation now that I’ve reread the whole thing from beginning to end with the Raws.
So as of the last updated chapter as of this post (54), I’ve relearned who is who and what their roles are in the story lol so I am very sorry for being vague in the initial spoiler posting and not giving clear names. BUT after reevaluation, I’ve found out that the reason the prosecutor (aka guy who’s been raping Lee for the past chapters) get freaked/exposed/karma-ed is because Lee Geom decides it’s time to make his move and comes forward as the victim of the cases he’s been suspected of 1) a rape victim from his stepdad and 2) the suspected murder of his mom. (<— I’m pretty sure the Raws also include how Geom self-reported himself to the police after his escape attempt back at the beginning of his hellish nightmare with Rieder, as some other case that Geom is coming forward with) From there, he exposes the Prosecutor and
all the rape he’s done to Lee, as well as exposing Rieder and his sexclub penthouse (I think) with the past sex tapes that were filmed when Lee Geom tried to use those tapes as ways to communicate with the public that he is a “business major, 3rd year, and is being held captive” etc. (<—Paraphrasing), when he was first being raped by all those people. From here, I believe the Chairman gets nervous because of all the power that Lee Geom has just displayed with getting the Prosecutor and Rieder in trouble with the police and public. And since election for representatives was around the corner, he ultimately decides to send a group of his thugs after Lee Geom to shut him up for good by killing him, so as to not get exposed before the voting. Either that is the Chairman’s reasoning for killing Lee OR he was also exposed in the exposing of the Prosecutor and Rieder and wanted to get back at Lee Geom, essentially taking Lee with him to hell before going to prison or hell himself.
Thank you so much! Do you know if Lee survives? I hope he's alright and that he's with people he loves
He was raped though when he was best and kidnapped. Well the prosecutor raped him in the car then when Lee Geom got out of the car that when he was beat and kidnapped and beat some more.
He is alive though. Someone grabbed the best friend and brought him to him. He is wrapped in bandages and on monitors.
Don’t view if you don’t like spoilers
Just caught up with the raws and from the looks of it. Lee gets hella revenge on the guy who’s been imprisoning him in the bedroom with the chastity stuff. Basically Lee gets enough proof and escapes the room, then reveals to the entire public all the footage of what was done to him and who it was done by. Then because of all the exposing, a different group of people (I’m going to assume loan shark people?? Or people hired as hitmen??) capture Lee and beat him up and lastly stab him, until he’s assumed to be dead. And that’s where the last chapter of the raws stopped.
DISCLAIMER!! I know zero Korean and all of this spoiler was based on my speculation and interpretation of the panels the author drew. I cannot confirm nor deny whether Lee is dead, since the manwha doesn’t indicate any official proof that he did die (I.e. burial, heart monitor scene) BUT he was definitely beaten up hella bad and stabbed once, for the symbolic notion for us readers to think that Lee is now dead (He was not raped here, thankfully, but I don’t know if this one act of no rape gave him justice with everything he’s been through). I’m still holding out hope that the author let’s Lee live and that we’re just supposed to THINK that he’s dead. BUT you might be better off assuming the worst. However, I can say that I’m 99% sure that Lee DOES get revenge on the guy who’s been raping him for these past chapters in the bedroom.
