Juwon has seen naked people before, at boarding school bathrooms, locker rooms etc. and it’s not a big deal when he sees them because he isn't interested in nudity. But the moment he sees Dongsik naked, he freaks out like a horny highschool freshman, has to leave the room, and nuts into his pillows at night.
nam sangbae taking the responsibility for this boy he saw as a potentially criminal will always make me so devastated. sangbae seemingly also didn't have any family, not that he ever mentions or are shown. dongsik lost two people forever and while one become a 'statue'. these two became each other's family, for over 20 years, sangbae made sure to drag dongsik through thick and thin, lifting him up, just being there. he didn't raise him. sangbae 'reincarnated' dongsik. he watched over and made sure that dongsik was still breathing. he gave him the hope and opportunity to do something and feel that although his efforts could have been futile, HE still did something. sangbae was dongsik's savior.
Juwon in Beyond Evil is so funny because my guy went from 'this man is a danger to others and I will arrest him' to 'this man is a danger to himself and I will tie myself to him' to 'this man is the salvation of my life and I'm ruined by the handcuffs on his wrists' and it's somehow the best thing that happened to him. 10/10 on matching the freak and changing yourself because of knowing someone.
imagine you were born a twin and then your sister died when you were 20 but you'll never stop being a brother because you decided to stop living for yourself the minute she was gone. and your parents stopped existing because one of their kids was gone and you couldn't make it up for the void. and then you try hard to live in a way that'll keep others safe, anyone who sees you as a brother or a son. but they keep dying and you survive, sometimes for them and sometimes because of them. now imagine you're a 40 year old man with more trauma than a Jenga pile can handle and your coping method is laughing at inappropriate times and generally letting people perceive you as a lunatic so that you can protect yourself. now imagine a 27 year old perfectionist with repression that's one step away from exploding decides you are his nemesis then partner then somehow even religion when he loses faith in everything he knew before he met you. now you have to get him out of hell and keep yourself from losing your sanity too. you are Lee Dong-sik and you keep getting adopted into different roles by people around you, and the last simple problem in your life was that you were once 20 and sucked at singing.
I honestly feel so deeply unhinged about Beyond Evil I cannot believe I didn't watch it before. it has everything : doomed childhood best friends, tragic twins, traumatized forged families, you can't escape the past (derogatory), you don't have to escape the past (kind), devotion as a weapon, devotion as an absolution, loyalty being a curse and loyalty being given freely, death and life being inseparable, love and arrogance and love and humility, falling to your knees in surrender, surrendering to raise someone off their knees, women being unheard and heard and protectors and persecutors, and there's yaoi that's insanely poetic somehow. absolutely built for endless rewatches.
That awkward moment when The Moment(TM) is over... what gets me in this scene is not only the fact that, at an impasse and at odds, they still don't let go of each other till Lee Dongsik gets the call; it's also that Han Joowon takes the phone and brings it to his face as if it wasn't just held in Lee Dongsik's - potentially dirty - hand. It seems that even at this point, when he's nothing but infuriating and a suspect, Lee Dongsik makes Han Joowon forget about his mysophobia.
WHY DOES DONGSIK LOOK LIKE HES FALLING IN LOVE WHILE JUWON PUTS THE CUFFS ON HIM WHY DOES JUWON LOOK LIKE FOLLOWING HIS RIDICULOUS MORAL COMPASS THAT HAS PROPELLED HIM THROUGH THIS ENTIRE SHOW IS BREAKING HIM INTO PIECES WHY CAN THEY ONLY HOLD HANDS WHEN DONGSIK IS HANDCUFFED WHAT THE HELL
