when i was at walgreens (at 3 in the morning which explains all of this) the cashier was talking to her coworker about how shed rather be a werewolf than a vampire because vampires are condemned to hell but werewolves arent and then she asked me what i thought and i said vampire because im already condemned to hell and she said in the nicest tone of voice ��i dont think anybody is condemned to hell….” paused, stared at me for a few moments, and added on “…not even gay people”

there is something so tragic about them and it can only be explained with bunch of mitski lyrics.

can’t stop thinking about how sieun starts the season with this monologue: “what i have to do... i have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff. i mean if they’re running and don’t look where they’re going, i have to come out from somewhere and catch them” and it beautifully summarises what sieun ends up doing during the entire season. we get an impression at the start that sieun’s wading through the living world in a numb stupor but the moment the cracks show up, the moment someone is about to go over the line, sieun steps up and stops the violence before it can cross the point of no return. last season, we saw sieun exact his revenge but this season, sieun is avoidant of conflict and deadset on forgiving people if it can prevent further escalation (note that this isn’t even a new trait, sieun forgives beomseok, yeongbin and yeongi when they initially wrong him in season one).

he doesn’t actively fight hyoman because his objective was not to defeat the guy but to stop him from irreversibly damaging juntae. he advises baku about the unbreakable cycle of violence and how they HAD to end it. he refuses to back out of their search for baku because come hell or highwater, he wasn’t going to let a friend of his fall off that cliff edge and we know baku was hovering a little too close for comfort after joining the union. it was sieun who approached and mended things with hyoman and seongje despite both of them having wronged him and his friends because again, sieun isn’t trying to seek revenge at all. not even in their fight with baekjin. his goal was sketched out to us, plain and clear: sieun is trying to catch all these students wrapped up in the casual and cruel violence of the union and give them as safe a landing as possible.

(even the purposeful shot of sieun stopping gotak and walking into the final fight himself shows this; gotak’s knees would probably not have survived the intense fight).

i think what’s really important about sieun’s arc this season is that it is not just his guilt over suho that haunts him but he also blames himself for beomseok going over the cliff edge and him not being able to help him. he forgives himself twice this season. first is obvious: juntae’s words rid him of his guilt over suho and it’s the decisive moment that we know he will now not consider himself at fault for suho being comatose. the second instance of sieun forgiving himself, imo, is during his imaginary talk with beomseok while he himself in a coma. the boxing ring earlier held memories of both suho and beomseok and now only beomseok remains there, holding him down. but now, sieun is finally able to unburden himself of beomseok’s presence and his guilt over him. i think it’s very telling that his dream version of beomseok asks him whether his new friends are more important to sieun than him because that is exactly what beomseok himself would have dwelled over, given his insecurities. it just reiterates how well sieun understood beomseok but at the end of day, sieun realises that he needs to reconcile his past with his present and overcome the guilt so he can act on the philosophies he wants to follow. sieun forgives himself once more and accepts that beomseok is now out of his life and he has other friends he needs to worry about, friends he holds dear.

sieun’s been through this once. he knows what the consequences of repetitive grudges and violence are. the “happy” ending we got for season two wasn’t a fluke but a culmination of every small and big effort sieun took to safeguard this very ending. he really did catch so many from falling off the cliff.

I find it really funny that the main pairings of WHC are all introverted nerd x extroverted jock. Though the dynamics differ: sunshine & sunshine protector (Gotae), sun & moon (SHSE), and eclipsed sun (Bakjin).

That's enough. He can leave. You're not letting me go. I'm leaving for your sake.

I'm only on episode 4 so far but Baekjin and Humin are literally the toxic version of Sieun and Suho. The reserved, calculative, loner geniuses with flawless pokerfaces and the prettiest eyes you've ever seen, and their outgoing, charismatic, popular jock boyfriends with a darker side and killer punches, who they'd let manhandle them even though they hate people touching them, who they can't get over because they're obsessed with them.

Absolutely loved the dynamics we got this season. The cutest puppy love with Gotak and Juntae (the way they protected each other was so sweet), the toxic ex-childhood besties who haven't gotten over each other and made it everyone's problem (Baekjin wanted Baku's cookie so freaking bad), and Sieun and Suho being twin flames even when apart the entire time (both going into comas in the 7th episode of the season).

One thing I've always immensely enjoyed about Weak Hero is how everyone's a tough guy until they meet Sieun. Sieun fights like a psycho animal; his first instinct is to mutilate a guy to bring him down. And it's like, all these tough guys are like, oh look how good I punch and swing the bat, so they're caught off guard when Sieun comes at them like he wants to handicap them permenantly. Their realization of "??? Wait. Wait wait, why is he coming at me with sharp objects?!!!!" makes me want to hand him a knife just to see what he does with it.
