I agree 100% with the comment below this one, and I dare say the Hounds are the actual antagonists. I think Guwon is the Black Adam of this story (anti-hero, lack of understanding customs, etc). It'd make a lot of sense why the title emphasizes the Hounds at that point. I'm hoping we also get a backstory of what actually caused this mess.

I love Yui is coming into his own more. Speaking up, making decisions, allowing himself to reflect and be free...I feel like it's so refreshing to the usual "just go along with the seme" plot. Like, he still gives in, but he's saying what he wants too, and that's part of his personality in a way rather than a trope. I know some people were against Hyun for being possessive, but honestly, I think that brought out the best in Yui because it allowed him to feel safe, comfortable, and actually be loved over guilt-tripped. Maybe even gave him a fall-back to think "Oh he cares about me this much anyways, so I can just be myself and let him take the reigns mostly." Over being on guard constantly. Basically, their perfect dynamic. I love this so much

Gyeol is like the anti-hero: morally ambiguous, but majority does the right thing for the greater purpose. So a pervert with morals. It's honestly very interesting because you don't usually see it as straightforward in these, but more like a roundabout drawn out waiting game. I'm really intrigued to see where this goes.
Seme: Sit.
Uke: *protests but sits*
Seme: Stay. *leaves to mingle*
Uke: *indeed does not stay* Fluff you! *drinks*
Also Uke: *drinks to much and sits* ...damnit.
ALSO Uke: *attracts pretty women who want to pet him*
Seme: I thought I told you to stay!?
Uke: *hmph* fluff you!
The literal monolog that went through my head this episode
