This is only the 2nd time Incheol's been to the boxing match but what was different this time round? Boxer man lost both times, but this time henactually tried to defend himself before he met the ground. What was that? Why was that?
He has never bothered before. What is it about Incheol that makes Boxer man look for him. The eye contact was so intense and full of tension. Kind of an unspoken way of conveying "Keep your eyes focused on me". Even at the end of the 1st match, Boxer man looks up to see if Incheol is still watching. Something in the way Boxer man perceives Incheol has drastically shifted between these two matches. Was it the terrible blowjob? Was it the traces of cologne that lingered on his coat? Or the itch to snatch the end of the leash Incheol's collar is tied to from whoever currently has it pulled taut?
On the other hand, Incheol's situation has become abundantly clear to his own self after the bill failed to pass. Whether he manages to make this redev project a successful operation or not - it doesn't matter. Nobody has his back. Not Rep Lee, not Assistant Cha, not his ex Hyori, not anyone. He needs to turn the tables in his favour somehow if he wants to stay in the game. Because otherwise he's gonna be used and disposed by Rep Lee anyhow. Either after this project's done or the next election season.
...and then there's "Gym". I can almost feel the gears churning in his scheming brain, because I bet if there's one thing Incheol has mastered how to do over the years working as a political dog...it's how to survive.
The next chapter is going to be so good, I know it.
If anyone cares to go into deeeep analysis, posters in Ahn's room are from movies: punch drunk love, trainspotting, attack on the gas station, the bittersweet life, kids return and mysterious skin. I feel like the author is a massive cinephile and the posters have some kind of foreshadowing purpose of indicater of Ahn's identity. A lot of tjem are about youth, those are kinda dark themed. And bittersweet life come on, if you've watched the movie it's pretty obvious it's foreshadowing Joo's journey. Trainspotting- focus on addiction - Ahn's weird addiction of pain that's goes being kinks. Also mysterious skin... childhood trauma implication maybe? Honestly both ML and MC are likely to have some kind of trauma. But one thing that all these movies have in common is connection and i think that is the central theme of this webtoon or at least what it's heading towards. Ok done yapping
what tf did Mincheol lose exactly. what a rat bastard
Its so fucked up that this was bound to happen and you can see it happen from a mile away. Everything just came together for the worse possible scenario and it just gets worse from here.
I know everyone is angry at Seth rn, rightly so, but I think everyone is forgetting that he doesn't know Nephthys isn't in the mirror. In his mind, Horus never loved him and he fooled himself into thinking that he's capable of being loved, and Nephthys is trapped in the mirror because it was used on her with Osiris. I personally don't think Seth loves her anymore, at least not the same way he used too and the way he loves Horus now, but I think he's just so dependent on the idea that he can get his family back and they can be how they used to be that he doesn't realize he's killing with his own hands the only really second chance he has at love and redemption. He's so set on the past that he doesn't see the future. Sadly we're gonna see how that realization come to him later on. ╥﹏╥
that's what my thought was then Enzo went and drank the aphrodisiac too which made me mind go "WELL THAT'S FUCKIN HOT"
brother ended up looking like he could be in the new conjuring movie
yikes, the grooming is intense. "he's like a father to me" and no sane father would threat their child like that.
i think the manhua is doing better work at showing Chase's POV. pacing felt a lil fast tho.
i just speed ran the novel and GODDAMN. that was wholesome. actually had me tearing up in a few places.
it's tragic he's a hot looking man with a shit eating personality.
as they said in crazy rich Asians, no one has to teach u how to be a man if u aren't one already bruh.
For those who didn’t understand the meaning and the ending of this story
In the end, Todd disappears taking all the sheep with him. Heartbroken and unable to cope, Dennis throws himself from a cliff into the darkness.
This manhwa is full of symbolism and it contains some references to the Bible. This story is not about love, it’s something much deeper. So this is how I interpreted this story. Sorry, it's a little long.
Todd is the wolf(coyote),representing the devil himself, while Dennis is the opposite-naive, innocent, like a sheep.
Early in the story, the farm owner warns Dennis to “trust nothing except the sheep” which can be interpreted as to trust only what is pure and innocent(In the Bible, sheep are seen as symbols of innocence ).The farm owner already knew that someone or something was in the mountains, who seduces men and takes away their sheep.
Todd lures Dennis in with love, but his true goal was the sheep and more importantly-Dennis’s soul.Dennis falling in love with Todd represents him giving in to temptation. He places his trust in the very opposite of purity, despite the farm owner's warning.
In the end, Todd devours all the sheep and returns to wherever he came from (symbolically hell). Dennis is left with nothing-no love, no sheep, no purpose and devastated by that,he takes his own life, following Todd into the darkness.
Todd didn’t just take the sheep,he took Dennis’s soul as well, connecting with him through his mind and seducing him to fall from the cliff.
This is where the title "THE FALLEN LAMB" comes in. As we understood, in the Bible, a lamb represents innocence and purity. This suggests that Dennis was once pure, like a lamb, but after falling in love with a devil, he lost everything and fell-both metaphorically and literally. He was a sheep himself,eventually devoured by the very wolf he trusted.That's why Todd spent so much time with Dennis,to eventually get his soul.
Hope this made some senseSorry if it’s a bit messy. If you have your own theories, drop them here, I would love to read them and discuss together
