Green flag this, red flag that... god forbid a character is actually interesting.

Everything points to Guwon not being human and yet people here in the comments are expecting him to act like a normal person. We still don't know where he came from or how he was treated in the past but it is OBVIOUS he isn't normal, has been obvious since the first chapters.

And I don't think he is evil. Guwon truly believes the only people who deserve to stay alive are the ones who are useful to the city, you could tell that his reaction after getting slapped was genuine. Does that make the things he did right? No, but there wasn't anyone brave enough to tell him that what he is doing is wrong.

Keep in mind that these people are not living in a normal world with normal laws and rules, you can't expect them to act like you would. You'd also be afraid to say anything to the man who just killed someone with a baseball bat or crushed someone's head with his own hands.

    Right!? I feel like people want to be spoon fed characters as "good" and "evil", where did the love of complexity go? Why doesn't anyone want to have to interpret a characters actions instead of just having a black and white definition spelled out for them?

    EXACTLY. What makes me crazy is that it's not hard to understand his character, specially after this chapter, but since he's not the green flag they wanted him to be they just want him to die now lol as I've already said on a previous comment people came to read a zombie apocalypse story expecting everything to be sunshine and rainbows and obviously they didn't get that.
