Okay yall I have a new theory. You know how the title is hounds of Sisyphus, in mythology Sisyphus betrays the king by revealing Zeus’ secret, Zeus condemns Sisyphus to eternal imprisonment in the underworld. And the gods force Sisyphus to roll a boulder up a mountain for eternity. “Sisyphus” being Guwon, and the zombies being the hounds. So maybe it is that Guwon actually started this plague or whatever by possibly betraying someone which caused them to become a zombie, which could be the reason guwon through up after. He also may be connected to the boulder part, by having tried countless ways to avoid the zombie part. Maybe it has some connection. Or I’m reaching and delusional who knows
So, I like your theory but the version of mythology about Sisyphus that I remember is that he was abñe to trick and beat death twice, for which he was punished.
We do see Guwon basically "coming back from death" at the beginning of this story, so maybe like you said, the first time he beat it was when the zombies broke out and then the second time his punishment is not being able to feel anything
I love the art, but I can’t get over the raising him as his child and infantilized seme dynamic. It’s throwing me off
tbh was he even a child since dude was just small but ngl idk
