WHY ARE YALL SHIPING THE LAWYER AND MC???? He's doesn't like her romantically. He only likes her when she's at her lowest like when she breaks down and turns to him for everything. Its not even like LIKE as in emotions for him. It's about how she fits into his need for possession and control. In his twisted worldview, he obsesses and fixates on things that arent easily his. Like the harmonica, the ring, wrist watch, and his sister's pen... The more precious it is to the original owner, the more he fixates on it. And IMO it's not really about the object but about having the power to claim it. That's why when it comes to MC, it's the same pattern. Her vulnerability and dependence make her "claimable" in his eyes. She "shines" the most (aka becomes more valuable in his terms) when she's at her lowest. That's why he's orchestrating things to make her more dependent on him to add her to his collection.
And remember the bug/flower thing that was preluded? Inseop killed the bug simply bc it had the thing it wants, which is the flower. PLUS the thing I said "he obsesses and fixates on things that arent easily his. The more precious it is to the original owner, the more he fixates on it". So now with the MC, he has a literal checklist of the "bugs", that "own" the MC, which he needs to kill.
