Strangers From Hell, 1x02 Human Nature | Shape Of The Nightmare, chapter 94 and chapter 77
#i've always seen gi-hyeok's character as a mirror of both moon-jo and jong-woo but he also mirrors kang in many ways#in the context of the k-drama adaptation he kinda plays the role of kang actually#moon-jo/yeongsam's original 'work of art' who was later abandoned when he found someone more interesting than him#(gi-hyeok taking on moon-jo's role in the goshiwon and keeping the other residents in check when he's absent)#(also mimicking moon-jo's behaviour and looks and mannerisms) (dressing like him. talking like him. acting like him.)#(kang taking on yeongsam's role and continuing his work and still trying to prove himself to him long after he's gone)#anyway this is my way to cope with the fact that we'll never get a k-drama adaptation of the prequel and sequel of Hell Is Other People#gi-hyeok may not be live action kang but he's the next best thing#this one's for me and the two other yoo gi-hyeok and ryu kang fans in the fandom#strangers from hell#sfh#타인은 지옥이다#hell is other people#shape of the nightmare#form of a nightmare#seo moon-jo#yoo gi-hyeok#yeongsam#lee yeongsam#ryu kang#parallels#my edits
