I feel like in this story, Guwon is both Zeus and Sisyphus. Because in the myth of Sisyphus, Zeus kidnapped Aegina and brought her to the island, which was then named after her. Guwon basically kidnapped Jinwoo and named the town stillwater just because Jinwoo suggested it. Aegina was also the Goddess of spring, which is a stillwater. In this sense, he is Zeus. But he is also Sisyphus because he mentioned thinking that mountain is a boulder that will eventually roll over and destroy the town so he has to keep an eye on it. Sisyphus was punished to push a boulder up the mountain for all eternity. In that sense, he is Sisyphus.
The problem with Guwon being Sisyphus is, Sisyphus is working with Aegina's father. Which means Guwon is working with Jinwoo's father, who seems to be the main cause of Jinwoo's PTSD. Which is probably why Jinwoo said in the beginning that Guwon's name means salvation but later he will find out that it was just his name. He's going to give Jinwoo back to his father.
But since Guwon is meant to be Zeus in this story, then he will also be the one that defeats Jinwoo's father. So he will betray him then save him again?
