You’re exactly right. Some people will tell you that it’s a form of a D/s relationship but it’s not. He’s possessive af and using threats and sex to manipulate the situation as he sees fit. That’s why ol’ boy is confused. Even though he doesn’t want it, he brainwashed to the point that he’s low key expecting it anyways because that’s all he’s been conditioned to feel.
Tae-sung doesn’t know how to love properly or has been in a proper relationship and it shows. Either that or he just doesn’t gaf about how he treats him in spite of the fact that he “loves” him. You need someone with the mindset of Harley Quinn in order to make this work.
okay I’m not really into digging up for theory but I’m sure that Tae-sung is really really really care for Soo-young, he gave all his attention and lots of sincere affection. So why did the word “punishment” implies “abuse”?
it may be just another round of ‘whole fist inside the asshole’
