no because fr, like its been years boss cmon. Give the poor mans heart sum rest jeez
My gut tells me the boss has some soft spot for dumbass seolho which is why i think he doesn't want him to go in the field. I think Taemin saying "he cares about you" to seolho proved that for me. But my gut also tells me he thinks seolho is a bit of a dumbass that's why he ain't letting him touch the field. (which is proven correct)
I know that one reason at least why boss isn't letting Seolho on the field is precisely because Seolho is in love with him. Boss told Taeman that as a killer being in love is one of the worst situations they can be in because it affects their ability to concentrate on the job.
his eagerness to be out on the field aside, it makes sense the boss didn’t let him yet. imo he’s still childish and isn’t able to be a team player if he’s playing an active killing part. and he’s not experienced in assassinating either which is why the boss let him be an informant/spy instead. it’s just a bigger annoyance that the time he chose to prove himself but fucked up, was for their most important mission even if the boss has a soft spot, at the end of the day blondie’s doing duties not for the agency but for the boss’s attention and approval
sabba pointed out their concentration on the job too and i agree
oh yeah i fully agree. honestly the whole situation is more akin to watching the progress of an avalanche at a distance: it's started off small and quiet, but now it's out of control and you can't warn any of the people who are about to be crushed beneath it
ykw it definitely sucks major fuckin dookie that seolho has put everyone in a Situation but after some thought i'm blaming the boss for it as well tbh. he must know that the reason seolho is so desperate to be on the field is because he's eager to prove himself as an equal and an adult to him. and seolho is so caught up in thinking he can't expose how he feels directly that being of utmost use to the boss must be the ultimate way of expressing his feelings. i'm starting to feel like if the boss had just told him outright that he knows how seolho feels, then seolho wouldn't have gone to these lengths and would've started doing some real self-reflection instead.
so the question now is why hasn't the boss done that yet? even if seolho goes berserker about it, he could certainly handle himself against him, and he's already been shown to be the kind of person who doesn't beat around the bush about anything. i'm kinda wondering if the boss reciprocates seolho's feelings but can't allow himself to give into those feelings because it would only lead to more issues in his mind, but i'm not convinced of this stance yet since we don't actually know too much about him yet, not even his name LOL but this manhwa is genuinely too fucking good, puts a lot of other bl manhwas to shame really
