I particularly don’t think he hates gay people. At first, he enjoyed seeing the mc liking him (he definitely knew he had a crush on him), so he kinda of savored the feeling of being liked and made the mc feel bad with homophonic words. Then, with Lee Sohwaa appearance, the ml began to think the mc started to like Lee Sohwaa (which is not the truth), so that’s why he is acting homophobic right now, even though he is also gay lol. Just jealousy. He is a manipulative bastard tho–
I think this is the best way to explain, but for real he is really is manipulative.
in short, he has hella problems. LOL.
WAIT?! IM CONFUSED. DOES THE TOP JUST HATE GAYS IN GENERAL?! WHAT THE SIGMA
