The brutality of using a bat to carry out a death sentence is actually very interesting to me. It takes a combined effort of physical strength to land hard enough hits, true belief that this is the best route, and the passion to keep yourself going until the person dies. Guwon’s reactions throughout the trial and sentencing are also interesting. During the trial, he seems cool and almost amused. But while carrying out the sentencing, he rapidly shifts from that same amused look to pained then to complete emotionless detachment at the end when he looks over his shoulder at Jinwoo.
