Sangim has no motivations or goals, so he wants to beat MC, but when he does it he realizes he has nothing more to do. He does not want MC to be the second best, he wants him to have no chances at all. He wats to destroy him but at the same time he want to keep him at his side because beating and seeing Jihyun suffer is what keeps him “sane” (he is a crazy bastard after all). I really hate him, I still don’t forgive him for killing his dogs
Ngl I wish they just ended it off as the knockers were gone entirely or Immo/Fushi accepted them coexisting with humans, the whole society advancing and tech arc is already kinda...how to put it... boring? It’s kinda just not fit to be in an anime where it’s based off of an ancient era where there’s no tech and realistic stuff, it’s just my opinions tho. The whole time skipping is just a lot to handle, I think they should of ended it kinda early if you know what I mean, it’s just a bunch of filler with more complicated info and I don’t know where they’re going with it.
also they should've ended it off with kahak dying with the knocker, i mean it wouldn't solve the knocker PROBLEM PER SAY but it was a good bitter sweet ending
