Also, is Karel hiding his identity from Julian too, cause WTF. I would be PISSED if one of my brothers pretended to be dead (for reasons we don't know right now, but why do I feel like it's a new name, new me situation). They better not get caught because if it was me, I would have whooped their butt (How DARE you make me worry like that)

See my issue is from day 1 their relationship was never on equal standing. Karel had money, connections, social standing and work skills. Whereas, Sasha was traumatized, and desperate and could barely speak the language (and he only knew how to dance). Their relationship was Sasha entirely relying on Karel for EVERYTHING and Karel encouraged it and liked to pretend nothing was wrong (the man had some hardcore rose-coloured glasses). I love that Karel is a romantic but Sasha has serious PTSD and substance abuse problems, you can't just ignore those things and hope it goes away. Also, Sasha was in fight or flight mode the entire time, he wouldn't have the privilege to 'fall in love' or even acknowledge his emotions, because his entire livelihood depended on Karel and his mood. If Karel decided one day to just randomly up and leave or decided he was bored of Sasha, Sasha would literally be starving on the street.☠ Heck Julian even told Sasha to remember his place and only stay around until Karel eventually got bored. That's why his character seems hypocritical now, it's not that he didn't appreciate what he had or he wants him now because of his money. Sasha for once in his life has a somewhat stable position, and therefore a chance to actually reflect and participate in emotions that aren't directly tied to survival.
But also here's my question HOW COULD SASHA WAIT FOR KAREL WHILE HE WAS IN JAIL? LIKE LITERALLY HOW?
He has ZERO life-sustaining skills EVERYONE who has helped him wants his body in return and tries to take advantage of him and abuses him in some manner. And Julian sure as hell would not help Sasha once he knew Karel took the fall for him (and Sasha is smart and knows that). So other than leaving and becoming a dancer again, how did people think he would be able to feed himself and shit??
I literally commented something like this. People don’t understand how Sasya has literally been take advantaged of his body and that he knows people only want him for it. His family was murdered, he was cast away from his career, he didn’t spoke the same language as Karel so I assume he only knew based on body language and hand gestures to communicate with him. Also we was showed of Sasya getting drunk all day when Julian visited. I just know ppl who are quick to blame and hate Sasya don’t read or watch a lot of psychological drama. Like it ain’t just black and white here, its gray. So it’s gonna be complicated and complex story.
I understand the FL but let my man continue his quiet quitting, he's tired (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
