Real I feel like the best ending would be if he just dies
I actually kinda see a redemption arc. I feel like Heeseo is just doing this to protect the MC, although his ways is just really bad. I think the actual villain is the MC's adoptive mother
Yes, that is the author 's plan but he is no saviour when he completely dehumanized Tae by keeping him in chains and taking him out on a leash, even forcing him too pee himself by refusing to take him to the bathroom, not to mention the sexual and mental abuse Tae suffered is weighing him down and if anyone gave him the choice of being "saved" by Heeseo or die he would choose to die without hesitation. Heeseo did not save Tae, that is the excuse he tells himself to feel less like a monster but he only ruined Tae's life by abusing him so much that his mental stability will never fully recover, he will live traumatized and depressed for the rest of his life because Heeseo "saved" him.
Yeah I do think there is gonna be a redemption for him — he’s not as bad as most of the bl red flags who’ve been redeemed honestly. I don’t think it would be hard to do that
literally!!! absolutely nothing can redeem him
Two villains can exist at the same time. Just because he seems like the "lesser evil" doesn't make him any less guilty.. in my eyes, he's as disgusting and vile as the step mom, just different forms of evil, committing different crimes!
this!! i hate both of them equally now
i’m seriously doubting there is an arc anywhere in this world that would redeem heeseo
