The director of WHC1 and WHC2, and Park Jihoon literally said they were in love, Sieun's first love was Suho, and here triggered people are still pretending like Suho and Sieun are some casual dudebros.
And calling us delusional lmao.
Honestly, the homophobia of these people is showing.
"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 they don't look where they're going, I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all"- The quote at the beginning of WHC.
And this is so perfect because:
This time Sieun didn't fight to avenge, he didn't to damage, to hurt, to win, he never fought for himself. Not once. This time, he fought to protect. And what makes WHC2 great is that you can actually SEE this difference in his fights this time. He is not vicious, just calculated, just enough to hold it at bay. He was calculating before, too, but this time it was subdued, quieter.
Park Jihoon truly is amazing as Yeon Sieun. Because everything this season, the way he acted genuinely showed the trauma, he embodied loss, hopelessness, not really belonging, the desperate plea to not get into a fight if he could avoid it, not to make the violence personal, to the acceptance he cannot carry this guilt anymore, to not giving up, to try and actually have friends again, to trust them and to not stop protecting what he can. Jihoon portrayed this all soo sooo well: from his body language to his eyes.
and his manner to speak the whole season - was he always such autistic?
Please stop throwing words like 'autistic' casually around. Trauma happens differently for everyone, even if fictional.... If it's hard to sympathize with a character at least don't mock it.
This is truly soooooo good!!! Binged it all in one evening after waiting 3 years for itðŸ˜... Now (maybe) gotta wait another 3 years for season 3 lmao
"If the world was ending, I'd wanna be next to you" — Si-Eun x Su-ho On Episode 4 of Weak Hero Class 2, my mind is blown by how the presence of one "absent" character haunts the narrative.
I don't know if it's Park Jihoon's phenomenal acting or my imagination in overdrive, but I could pinpoint every moment Su-ho flashed in Eun's mind, even when he's not shown on screen. Because in those moments, as a viewer, I could see him too.
If Su-ho were there, he'd do this...
Ahn Su-ho's shadow looms large over the story, and it's a testament to Choi HyunWook's flair with which he breathed life into the character! He simply made Su-ho unforgettable, and that's why it's entirely believable that Eun's unable to move on from Su-ho, just like the viewers. Maybe that's why even Baku starts to look like a louder but hollowed-out echo of Su-ho, which is surprising because in the webtoon, Su-ho is just a flashback character.
Here, he's the heart of the story and the core of Si-Eun. He's the great "weakness" of our Weak Hero: his guilt, his motivation, his memory, his treasure, his moral compass, and his HOME. He literally tells Baku, "I'm HOME now" when at the hospital.
Because, after all the bloodbath and violence, one needs a home to come back to.
What a triumphant tale of friendship and love it is! I hope to see more subtle nuances of their dynamic unfold in the next four episodes.
Don't dare let anyone say they don't love each other, because while love may not encompass all the hues of their precious bond, it's Love with everything their souls have: all dedication, loyalty, devotion, patience, protection, and soul connection.
He was not jealous, he was curious and happy that he managed to make other friends and wasn't alone. Si Eun and…
Again, Suho said HE AND SIEUN were married in their past lives. THIS IS LITERALLY CANON... So, I don't know if he was also fetishizing being married to Sieun... and who said love cannot be friendship? And friendship cannot be love???
Being queer myself, what am I fetishizing??? Love??? There is more than one interpretation of friendship and love.... Stop being so parochial. Let people interpret however they want to interpret media.

The whole interview was live on Netflix Youtube
Why so triggered??! Why so fragile??!! Also, if you don't like it, you're welcome to leave the community, too, you know.
And homophobia is really not the good look, you think it is!
