So true. He’s not even one of those timid ukes…he’s been a power bottom this whole time. People forget that when Heeseo was younger, smaller, and still relying on Taekyung, the dynamic was different, but the feelings were already there. Even after Heeseo stabbed him, Taekyung wasn’t just hurt, he was mostly mad at himself for failing to be the support he wanted to be. The kind of support Heeseo’s mother once was to him.
Taekyung really intended to escape at first so he called Jaewon. He changed his mind when he saw on the news that his so-called mother was finally getting arrested. He also saw Heeseo with his mother's sister (on the news). With all of Tae-kyung's flashbacks, he's finally FINALLY ending his indecisiveness and went to look for Heeseo for some answers/explanation, at least I hope that's the case after reading up to chapter 88 of the raws.
Also, I don't understand why people kept saying Stockholm Syndrome here? Since the beginning, Taekyung has always been sympathizing with Heeseo? It's nothing new, those feelings did not even disappear, it's just him being indecisive, afraid of losing the only family he had and afraid of failing Heeseo when he promised he'll stand with him. He did not develop those feelings he has towards Heeseo while he was captived. All those times he tried to soften up to Heeseo while he was captived, he really did all that to try to escape, that's not Stockholm Syndrome.
I'm not blaming Taekyung, just trying to say his case wasn't Stockholm Syndrome.
Sadly, due to health reasons, this manhwa is on hiatus until mid June, I think.
