I feel like in a way Gu-won is mischaracterized because he's just called a black flag because of his actions which is reasonable. I also CURRENTLY feel that since we don't know his character yet, some of us think there's no justification for what he's done because it gets to a point where it's common sense to have a sense of compassion to not beat the heads of people just because you don't deem them useful or it's just logical to think about what is right and what is wrong. But at the same time this man has no recollection of his memories. Not only that he is quite literally illiterate and uneducated where he doesn't get the basic meaning of words. But we also have to realize that the people of that town don't exactly educate him bc their so scared of him or just hate him. In one of the chapters when teacher helps carry boxes, the guy who was directing people around used the word fair to Gu-won who again doesn't comprehend the meaning of equality or fairness (pretty sure that guy knew too cs I did NOT fw his expression, he was just trynna get Gu-won to agree imo) and I'm sure these people are aware that he's not the sharpest tool in the shed. Then again I would not want to approach a person who killed meaningful people to me just because they thought they were useless. But then again I feel like we need to understand the characters more because it's clear Gu-won doesn't have morals or an actual valid sense of right and we can take the town rules as an example because they are excessive yet it's what he considers fair and justified. Also the teacher just seems like SUCH an unreliable narrator it's painful atp personally. But that's about it, I feel like Gu-won has more depth than how some of us are characterizing him right now soooo I'm awaiting to see how the story progresses !
