There’s a LOT that goes on in ch 177, we get another glimpse of how long Hak has loved Yona and how he never saw himself as someone she could potentially have romantic feelings for. We see how neither Hak nor Yona are in denial and are clearly moving forward in their relationship. We get to see how the whole gang has made so many allies, and how they’ve now inevitably found themselves in a position where Keishuk finds them desirable and a possible asset -but how pure those thoughts are questionable. At this point I genuinely wonder if Keishuk just wants the best for the country, and will follow whoever appears to be the most capable of that. If that’s the case, I wonder if he’s considering abandoning Soowon, or if he plans to use Yona and everyone to build Soowon up.
