yesss, well said
He's too prideful they need salvation for themselves
I think that’s why Do Hyeok ended up obsessed with Suha. He’s starved for genuine affection and was/is obsessed with sex as a replacement that fed his ego. He definitely seems needier towards Siwoo after he stopped the hate sex and was nice to him when he realized he was panicked and unstable.
Methinks so too. He sees sex as a way to fill in the void in his life. The only reason why he was fixated on Suha was probably because Suha gave him the attention and affection he never received from his family. Suha validated his existence and that made him feel good about himself. All his life, he saw himself as inferior to his family and he wanted to rid of that feeling through violence and abuse, manipulating people. Maybe his interest in Siwoo stemmed from how he is "different" from others, just someone who genuinely does not want anything to do with him. Maybe he initially thought, if I get this guy to crave my presence, maybe I'd feel even better about myself. Siwoo is another case though. His intentions, the mixed signals, his personal issues. I wonder how their story will unfold from here on.
There are a lot of loopholes in the dynamic of their relationship. Even if they were to get romantically involved at some point, I can't really picture them together happily. It's like one of those couples where you can easily tell if their relationship is doomed even before it begins. All I can see is guilt, regret, and betrayal. They need to work on themselves first. But I also feel like since Dohyeok never truly had someone, he's clinging onto Siwoo for dear life. He's a shitass alright, he did bad things, but I don't think he deserved what happened to him. No one deserves to get SAed. That could've been the last string for Dohyeok to seek professional help but his ego is preventing him from doing so.
