They are both what missing in their lives.I guess they are able to find each other in a perfect time of their lives. It may messy but that situation bring them closer.
Soohyun realizing that he just wanted to be beside Eunsung .
Eunsung finding out that in his boring and seemingly perfect life is nothing interesting or peace at all until he tangled with soohyun which he did not do when they are still in highschool that is why he said that he keep on thinking that if they just met on different circumstances they could have a great time.
My EUNSOO!!!!
Beautiful execution up until the end. That is one hell of a satisfying read! Soohyun and Eunsung is finally on the same page.
It's never to late for something to finally start. After years of silent separation, Soohyun finally found a way to squeeze Eunsung in his life again. He was never alive unless Eunsung is in his life. It was an obsession he at first didn't know how to define. Checkmate encapsulates the beauty, horror, and self-deception that obsession—love—can do to someone. Soohyun doesn't understand Eunsung's behavior but he doesn't understand his own feelings. He doesn't understand because he is entranced by Eunsung's existence, he didn't know what to do with that aside from bringing him down and keeping Eunsung to himself. Eunsung's existence has so much impact to him because he loves him but the only way he can express that is by both exploiting Eunsung's weaknesses and play mind games with him, while also self-destructing every now and then.
Ah fuck, I love Checkmate! Power bottom Soohyun and this pup top Eunsung. <i>"See you tomorrow."</i> There's no point in dwelling in the past, so they can only now create new and wonderful memories together. I hope I get to see more from them! Soohyun finally smiling and Eunsung letting himself go by acting like a child after years of creating a cold front. There's no need for corny love confessions, it's a tacit understanding that they both rightfully belong to each other. And they both also know and can fully feel it.
