Thank you, you are one of the few people who do not try to put 21st century views into how Seungho should behave.
i love and agree with everything you said, but just to clarify this bit:
"Bcs he doesn't see him as just a servant."
seungho has never thought of nakyum as a servant haha. he just sees him as a low born.
I don't think Seungho knows how to give affection. And being of higher status, I think was pressured to be perfect. And his accomplishments were dismissed bcs he was expected to get them. He also doesn't seem to have a good relationship with his parents. He seems to really like Nakyum, but doesn't know how to express it. He treats him better than he treats others, Buying him high quality clothes, feeding him the kind of food he eats, and asking him not to eat in the servents kitchen. Bcs he doesn't see him as just a servant. Small things like that. But of course he's also done bad things like slap Nakyum when he yelled at him. This might be bcs he was taught that he is higher than others so he doesn't like to be treated like that by someone who he thinks is below him. I'm not excusing the things he's done btw. I hope he can learn to give affection as the story continues.
