And the plot thickens, someone brought up the point that there were other children in town and how the doctor is most likely unreliable in his explanation, and I agree,
there is zero way this town could have functioned thus far under pure compliance, humans are predictable, judging by how prominent the blood stain in the square is shows just how many have died there, yes guwon has something wrong with him but after the slap he seems to be genuinely confused as to why his actions were wrong or questionable, after killing so many for the slightest slip up even in the apocalypse those around him would start to think about defying him, if he truly killed their families and companions the air of resentment would outweigh their thirst for survival, so why haven't they made a move? humans are stupid and think that no matter the foe, as long as you are able to gain the upper hand through strength or numbers, an opponent is vulnerable, so why have they just been sitting idle, serving sacrifices to appease Guwon this whole time??
we can only make out what we have seen, but at this point, i don't have a concrete opinion on anything besides the feeling that the "doctor" and other people in town are still holding something back and or concealing an important truth, either concerning their backstories or anything else.
(We need to uncover why guwon is so essential to the well-being or upkeep of the world as well.)
