guwon is for sure not a human and i’m so excited to see how this will turn out!
some things that caught my attention: 1) obviously he’s someone who took advantage of the chaos and apocalypse (as shown in the prologue) and that makes me think that he’s somehow connected to the underworld (judging from how he emerged from the ground, already wearing his jewelry and stuff)
2) maybe i’m overthinking it but i do find it suspicious how guwon asked mc “how does it feel to survive and turn up IN THE OTHER SIDE OF HELL” or something along the lines. that also kinda points to him having connections to the underworld
3) once again, maybe i’m overthinking it but the title points to the greek mythology (the myth of sisyphus) and through that lens i was also thinking about the symbolism of guwon living at the top of the town? like that kinda reminds of me of olympus mountain and greek gods living there. i’m not sure whether the titular “sisyphus” refers to ml or mc but considering how sisyphus cheated death and how weird mc is and how a lot of things point to him being a mugshot i lowkey think it refers to him.
4) also i don’t think ive seen anyone mention it but mc paid attention to how sharp guwon’s hearing it sooo i think that it just shows that guwon is not a human.
5) the whole scene of guwon giving beer to mc and not wanting to drink is also weird but hear me out, his explanation of why he does not drink is lowkey hmm weird?? like at first he says that he doesn’t like things that make him tipsy and then when mc asks him whether he avoids things that are addictive, him replying that he needs to “keep a clear head at all times” that’s just a bit suspicious imo.
there are other things that could be mentioned but idk im lazy. idk maybe im just overthinking all of this
