sorry to devastate y'all but the creator confirmed taegu is the second ML way back in a season 1 Q&A.. gulp..
i will say i originally didn't really mind/think much of it because i thought that yeah even though they technically met when he was younger that taegu just occasionally saw him after he was like beating his dad up lmfao.. but clearly they were a bit closer than that and taegu really did care about him and i can see how people interpret that as a father figure
ALTHOUGH i will say that i don't think he's a pedophile like some people are saying. i would go as far as to say he doesn't even have feelings for MC yet or at least i haven't gotten that feeling from any of their interactions. i feel like he'll develop them soon or something, and MC is late 20s so he's really not a pedophile BUTTT it is creepy considering how he knew him earlier but he never looked at him weird when he was a child. ANOTHERR little thing i want to say is although i can see the father-son or just kind of caretaker dynamic when he was younger, i feel like they don't really have that anymore they're just close and he worries about him some, MC is a grown ass man now.
anyway that's my thought dump thanks for listening heart
