MC said he needed the three bodies to fix his dead lover but the opposite happened because he was drunk. Instead of fixing his lover using the bodies, he went and fixed the three of them with his lover's body.
I feel like I read this already but my mind erased it from my memory ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Dennis' dead. Okay, got that. Todd's probably a shapeshifter. Yeah, sure. I accept.
But what I don't get is why the owner still lets his sheep graze there, even though he knows it's dangerous. From the way he reacted, it seems like this kind of thing has happened more than once.
If it weren't for this job, Dennis could've found something else. He wouldn't have met Todd, he wouldn't have gotten so obsessed with him. And most of all - he wouldn't have died! Yes, I lied. I can't accept his death! Just whyyy
I should've trusted my instincts. I knew the art is ominous.
That’s a really interesting question. Tbh I think the story is an allegory for religion and where it “leads us” (u can check my profile if u want but my theories are kinda long). Basically, I think fallen sheep is about how desperate we are to find purpose in anything (a person, religion etc), and even when we follow them we can end up “lost” and lose everything in the process (identity, our lives even..) given the fact that religion and this concept of devotion is so prevalent and widely accepted in our society, especially in our history, it seems the owner doesn’t care that the sheep are in potential danger. Sheep are the symbol of sacrifice—we take care of them sure, but they’re ultimately used to prove loyalty in this story, in the Bible. There’s a status quo in what everyone in this story is doing—Dennis following, Todd leading, and the owner of the farm sitting by passively letting it all happen. Some people follow and lead, while others do nothing at all. Maybe he accepts the fact that a couple sheep are bound to die, that things are meant to be this way and change is inconvenient. To uphold systems that don’t quite align with our best interest because it’s easier to change the entire thing itself is basically what I’m getting at
Hi sparky! Thank u for taking the time to reply. I visited ur profile and I do agree that this story can be interpreted in a lot of ways. Religion, morality, in society. My mind's going in overdrive now so I'm shutting it out. Lol I just think the author really is brilliant for making this.
Agreed, I love how they said so much in so little chapters. Thanks for taking the time to read!
Yeah, like why doesn't he just send two people already?
Read the 1st part and let it marinate since. 5 yrs and counting passed by. Is it even close to ending?
Nope Seth still loves his wife.
As much as I hate what the bro did to Soongap, I feel like it wasn't meant to even be there. I mean, I read this twice already and I just can't seem to find how that love (which I think is really just brotherly when they were kids) turned to something that ugly. Is it Soongap's aversion to the bro that made him yearn for him? The environment that got him so twisted? Idrk. It's just that the grape scene is unnecessary. Like tbe author added drama, made a villain and such. Still, it's a great story. Rereading % is high
I also think his brotherly love turned out that twisted just for melodrama points. Yet, if we try to justify things here, what I think the author could be trying to portray was that Soongap and Pilgyeon had vastly different childhoods and that affected how they grew to be. They both loved Soongap's mom, but smaller Pilgyeon was the one who knew all bad things happening to her, from the affair to the beatings, he was also the one to find her corpse. Soongap knew something was wrong but he was shielded by people regarding what happened to her. So Soongap grew up with more love around him, despite being a slave, while Pilgyeon grew with high expectations, no actual love, and all the love he got was from Soongap and briefly from his father's concubine. It's fair to think that he'd want to keep the promise he made to himself to keep by his brother's side and protect him, and that the lack of processing all his traumas turned that into an obsession. Plus, I guess maybe he was also being compared to his father's role in Soongap's mother's story. Both were so selfish they lost their loved ones due to their obsession.
I might add that we meet Pilgyeon when he's spent a long time away from his brother and the first thing he catches is Soongap with his lover. He probably spent all these years dreaming about having Soongap with him, so that shock might have added a new layer to his brothers fantasy. Maybe from watching Soongap desperately trying to save his lover and humiliating himself for the medicine, he grew to desire the same proximity to Soongap. I still think their scene was gratuitous, though. It added nothing but Bongchun's rage, and that could have been done in other ways. Pilgyeon has that tragic evil guy persona, but he cannot be redeemed even by his backstory. Also, this is me weaving random theories, but that could be entirely wrong. It's good to theorize tho.
exactly! we couldve skipped that scene for something else. im not into the incest.
Who's that again???
I think it was Yeongwoons last client. The one the top was sleeping with at first.
The previous actor who likes yeonwoon. Who confessed and pestered
This was actually a better explanation. I don’t know why I didn’t think of something so simple.
Xd. Happens. It's ok.
Oh yeah, the mf who wants to ruin SI 'cause he wants YW
Btw, thanksss
Welcome
Hands down to the art but i'm lowkey getting traumatized with the egg-laying thingy. Scaryyy ╥﹏╥
