I mean Erik is gelling Chris a fantasy. I checked out the raws and it explains a bit about his face and his upbringing. Yes, Ralph is the only one trying to find Chris ( who I’m tempted to call Christine). He’s missing and it seems Ralph if getting a glimpse of how badly Chris may be treated. Meanwhile Chris is with Erik and let’s just say….its a very eventful meeting. I don’t speak Korean but way too much happened, I also thought they were going to sing like in the play lol silly me.
Anyways, yes in love never dies that’s what happened. Ralph became an alcoholic and their marriage became abusive. They were in debt so they traveled to Coney Island NY where the Erik was posing as a rich director. Interested in having Christine be part of his show.
I’ve always been able to sympathize with Erik and the way he was treated because of his looks. However I do not condone the killings nor his aggressiveness towards Chris sometimes. But I think his backstory will be explaining a lot, I mean he seems to be telling Chris about why he wears and won’t take off his mask. That I was able to get from the raws based on their actions and I’m familiar with the play as well. It’s one of my favorites!

That’s how people perceived him because of his face. I don’t see this having a wholesome ending either I mean Chris is in love with Ralph while being infatuated with Erik. However in love never dies you can see them actually being in love with each other. I mean Christine literally goes to see him the night before her wedding ready to risk it all. That’s where their child is conceived but the Erik leaves before the sun rises. Perhaps on this story Chris will get pregnant while he runs to Erik one last time or something.
Chris talks about how he and Ralph are fated pairs. Yet he’s out here spreading his cheeks in front of a mirror for a man he doesn’t even know….aren't fated pairs supposed to have a strong bond? I know Chris is not marked but shouldn’t he only react to Ralph for the most part? It shouldn’t be this easy for him to be so weak to the Erik in an Omegaverse sense. That being said I’m only here to see Erik’s face and see how this will end because Ralph looks sus to me…
