Looking at deon's behavior and character from a psychological perspective, i think that's either ptsd from the traumatic experiences or he created an alter (dissociative identity disorder) as a way to cope. Growing up he was very convinces--rightfully so because of how the family treated him--thag he's not worth anything and he doesn't deserve love. Because of that the alter he made is somehow compensating for that, as such being a strong warrior despite him being somewhat scared.
And those moments where deon 'miraculously' avoids death and he just brushes it off, i guess it's a subtle way of showing how he can't comprehend the concerns of people around him for him because of how 'used' he is with abuse and violence. I have more theories thag i can't somehow put into words.
The only thing that keeps me from wishing they'd separate for good is the thought of sejin suffering because of the bond. Ido, redemption doesn't mean erasure of the fucked up things that you do. That's why their story feels more like a moral dilemma for me. Would you forgive a person knowing they still haven't done the horrific things they've done in the future? Or in their case, past?
What Ido had done to sejin pre-reincarnation is nothing more than a mistake. It's his choice to rape him, it's his choice to be abusive to sejin, he chose to only look at what he want to look in their alleged marriage. He's really a bitch. Cuz what do you mean he only cared after his death lol. If the reincarnation didn't happen, there's no way to redempt.
True they lack communication like most of these manhwas do but yeah ido did care he was starting to let himself fall in love with sejin and actually take their marriage seriously until sejin decided to betray him bc he let himself be gaslighted by the family who just took him in to use him so everything ido felt when he found out was valid he was betrayed he didnt know what to do bc they're married and when the brother r*ped sejin he thought sejin slept with him willingly bc sejin said so too they never really clarified anything with e/o ido only ever found out the truth when they bonded and sejin never said anything thats why when the reincarnation happened ido made sure that they talk to e/o before they sleep bc he knows thats what they lacked in the past
"The sounds I heard in my ears were like
harmonies you could only find underwater. If I
had to die, I wanted to drown in this ocean
named you. Death is scary. But I felt like I
wouldn't be afraid of any death if I died in your
arms."
When seungwon said that i nearly cried. How can a person love you so much that they would accept their deepest fears just to be with you.
In season 2, after he wakes up in the hospital he had this brief psychotic episode where he couldn't distinguish reality with his hallucinations from the building collapsing (past life) it got to a point where they had to sedate him cuz he was panicking so much . Also it's true he's addicted to alcohol since it's the only thing that soothes his body pain. But guys after they had a deep convo in the hospital, the seme actually helped him stop with the cigarettes (the uke suffers from addiction due to depression. Not a diagnosis but heavily implied) and i loved him for that








I hope hyesung and him have a fight for the next chapters because what he did is such a betrayal for hyesung. Not only he provided financial support and a home for that mother but also kept in touch with her. I'm on hyesung's side of he crashes out.
Also, let's atleast normalize cutting off toxic parents in this situation bro, his mother doesn't deserve closure, she's just freely living in peace after doing that to hyesung.
Completely right . People tends to forgive their parents all the time .. but is it necessary to do so , forgive them ? Just because they give birth to us . What hyesung mother did was wrong . And she has some nerves to blame hyesung for not finding her . He was a child . For fuck sake he was already suffering too much .
