But honestly, as much as its sad, they are in the middle of an apocalypse,it was a fitting punishment (would've been better to give him a quick death instead tho), everyone is DESPERATE to anything to live. Mc was just extremely lucky to have survived and be accepted into the group. You are gonna have to abide to them rules you like it or not, you are able to survive thanks to that place just like the others, you can't go in there and change em rules just because you find them wrong. It's a damn apocalypse guys every little mistake could lead to the deaths of all, let's say guwon did forgive him and let him live it would start a chain with more and more people breaking the rules because there is no consequences. It is a pity and morally wrong but would yall care in a damn apocalypse with ZOMBIESSS I don't think so, I'd do anything to have my ass alive

    Thing is their not even zombies from what we know they don't even attack people, they just survive death and wander around. Banishing him from the village would've been a way better call

    not really. banishing someone just gives them a chance to get their revenge, if they banished him, he knows the location of the camp, who is to say he doesn’t (or anyone else who gets banished) uses the towns location as a bargaining chip with outsiders.

    I agree. With all the protections and comfortable place Guwon provides, the least they can do is abide to the law their leader laid. It is cruel but Guwon had to choose for the community instead of an individual interest. If he gave out all of the valuable medicine to the refugees that’s in need, then what about those who are risking their lives on the battlefield? Pick a struggle, if everyone else can follow the rule, you should not be selfish. Everyone has problem, you are not the main character.

    They don't attack people, but in the first chapter he tried to kill the Teacher. There's too much chaos for them to just do nothing, because then they could be avoided like the homeless and drug addicts, and going outside wouldn't be as dangerous

    I am curious tho, what are they fighting? From what we know the maggots still don't kill people...

    I still disagree, there were better ways to Handle this in an apocalyptic world finding others would actually be a miracle, and how would bro know where to go back? When teach arrived they had to blindfold him so the village really could've just done the same to the old guy and STILL the old guy wouldn't know where the village is

    You have to think it from their point of view, ppl were living the life, then boom dead people come back to life utter chaos and despair. How would you react in this situation? I bet not calmly and composed for sure. You're right there were better ways to handle that but you gotta remember people are NOT in their right minds, the world is ending from their point of view, survival of themselves is their TOP PRIORITY, if they stumbled in a safe space and someone risked putting them all at risk of course they are gonna take drastic measures, remember that we are in a drastic situation, people are not gonna be friendly compassionate and most of all rational. Each for their own. The death of the guy also served as an example of how serius the crime was and what happens if you break the law, it's unfortunate but an example is required to show people what not to do and why. Also a personal take of mine, more people in an apocalypse doesn't necessarily mean goof, with short shorts of supplies the more people means the more to feed, the more responsible, the more the risk of getting new supplies- this is to highlight how important guwon is to these people and how anything he does is absolute.
    Daym sorry for the paragraph

    Oh Def I agree with this! Thanks for being reasonable, I don't agree with guwon at all and what he did. Fear and and control should never be used when in drastic situations. They cause a lot of hysteria, fear, and risks, unpredicatability. Take a look at history when has fear ever benefitted the good? Also from what were given the magots themselves aren't subject to a certain point or degree, some attack while others don't. Some are glad that the maggots meant a possibility of revival from death while others feared the catastrophic consequences of the maggots (implied in the first chapters ) we still don't know much about this tho, all we know is that some attack while others don't. I feel that if you were one to save resources you'd want to just execute the old guy with a bullet. One bullet is all it takes, I pretty sure people can sacrifice one bullet. And also simply dropping him off far away from the village (and I mean far) during their next expeditions could've also worked. He'd still be blindfolded and people would be leaving his life to fate taking away some of that guilty conscience that could've built from lingering attachments (like the son) It's rare for people to survive in apocalyptic settings realistically. Obvs in the apocalypse people will crack, depending on who you're with, what you do, what you've experienced and what you choose, but I believe there will always be a moral higher-end. Like a base morality when it comes to decisions. Like the trolley problem, save one at the cost of others or save others at the cost of one. Sorry for the long paragraph and good vibes

    No prob at all, everyone as a different moral compass, and that is your take. In this case the punishment was not even chosen by guwon, rather by the people, the ordinary citizens, he did not control their opinion with fear and authority,
    he let them choose. They are not afraid of the single leader they have but by the whole situation, they don't know what those creatures are capable of,its the end of the world in their eyes, yeah they walk and all but why take the risk of finding out? By this same logic why risk going outside just to leave as punishment the one single dude when you can carry on the punishment in your safe space? Ironically the only way to send off the man was by brute force and it also showed the gravity of the situation. Remember we are talking about an unrealistic and irrational crowd of people who just want to survive no matter the cost. In this case we're talking about sacrifice one save many-kind of case. The only seemingly morally sane person is the mc (and I believe he will keep thinking like that simply because he is the mc and has to be different from the rest) but ya can't slap out of nowhere guwon like it was his fault, he doesn't have the right as long as he's taking advantage of the village by Staying safe. the death of the old man was unfortunate but it was caused by the vote of the majority matter of fact he shoud go to the people who voted in favor of the kill.
