wavve released a clip not included in the final cut of weak hero class 1

in the beginning, you have the three bullies talking about sieun’s soulless expression while accepting his math competition gold medal award. we can put it in a timeline of events to know when this happened: after that award giving scene, the same day of suho’s fight scene with the baseball kids, and the day before PE class with suho throwing his shoe at jeongchan for making fun of sieun. so we know at this point, suho and sieun weren’t even in talking stage yet but suho already had the sense of protectiveness as shown in the shoe-throwing scene. also was that him waiting for sieun outside? um…

bullies were talking about how annoying sieun’s soulless face was and were about to bother him but suho, like the guardian angel that he is, suddenly appeared. suho, who just finished his toilet business and hasn’t washed his hands, slapped his unwashed hand on jeongchan (deserved). but i kinda raged when he left without actually washing his hands like!!! sieun was looking so he saw too!!! no wonder he was like “did u wash ur hands?” when suho tried to feed him a ssam lmao

god i need more scenes that didn’t make it to the final cut, more behind filming, more interviews. i can’t get enough of them

weak hero class 1 rant because it’s 4am and im in my feelings and idk how else to deal with them *cracks knuckles* please don’t expect me to be coherent

it’s because of a twitter thread i made and i just wanted to elaborate more

if you didn’t click the link here’s what i said “this montage gets me every time because you realize sooho’s bright personality hid the fact that he was just as alone as sieun was, always sleeping at school for working part-time a lot, probably the reason why he had no friends, also refers to himself as the hyung with his peers. then the montage sequence ends with sieun being considerate, not turning the lights on like he did before and studying in the dark to not disturb sleeping sooho. the same day sieun wakes him up to have lunch together and they unexpectedly click.. in a way it was a friendship built from understanding how differently they lived but also similarly alone, and having each other made their lives a little brighter and i think that’s beautiful.”

also this hyunwook interview..

—

i can’t seem to stop overthinking about the little detail that sooho refers to himself as the hyung (형 - older brother) with his same-aged peers (동갑). in korea, age is a huge deal and it dictates most of their social cues, who to respect and how much respect is given. and i can just imagine how arrogant his peers might find him for referring to himself as the hyung, it’s like he acts all high and mighty amongst them.

am not puting all clips of him doing this but i remember the incident with baseball kids in the first ep he told them to bring the passed out dude to the nurse’s office and said “형이 이름 말하면 뒤진다,” literally means “if you say hyung’s (my) name, you’re dead.” (and they aren’t even his same-aged friends because someone murmured “but we’re older than him..” still, they’re high schoolers all the same) in ep 2 “형이라고 부르고싶냐?” literally means “do you wanna call me hyung now?” (or “do you wanna give me respect now?”) in ep 3 while playing pool he said “형이 하는거 잘 봐라,” literally means “watch carefully how hyung does (i do) it.”

[edit: i remembered another instance. in ep 1, yeongbin’s group bothering sieun again in the classroom. sooho was disturbed from his sleep, “why are guys so chatty these days? 형 잠도 못 자게. 형 자도 돼? 응?” literally goes “hyung (i) can’t even sleep (with u mfs being loud). can hyung (i) sleep? hmm?” official subs: “someone’s trying to sleep here. can i sleep in peace? please?”]

i think he does it because he knows he was forced to grow up fast due to his living situation, and in his eyes this made his same-aged peers /more/ childlike(?) and immature compared to him, who’s already grown up and has adult big boy responsibilities to worry about than silly little exams and high school social hierarchy. he’s extroverted and has a sunshine personality, blunt and honest to anyone he talks to. he always knows what to say to kids his age to feel shame for the bullshit they pull. even with older people, the baseball kids, to gilsu “나이 먹고 그게 자랑이야?”

so yeah sleeping a lot at school due to working part-time for hours may have contributed to him not having friends (hello he follows like 5 people in instagram, such a skinny ratio with his 1k+ followers) but also he probably found it hard to relate and saw no reason to put effort in hanging out with them outside inevitable campus interactions. until sieun. sieun who sooho calls a weirdo, who’s really interesting, whose eyes say how empty he must feel inside but you can see the fire in them. sooho probably thought sieun would never initiate a conversation with him but he did approach him for lunch that one time. and finds himself enjoying the company. now he grew to love showing sieun that there’s more to life than studying hard and preparing for college. it’s all mundane things, eating, gaming, karaokeing, playing pool, “let’s drive all night long,” friendship and the kind of company that their families and other people couldn’t give.

sooho’s all sun and bright but he hasn’t found his person until sieun came along. both of them were very self-sacrificial, ready to risk it all and harm anyone to protect each other. i might just forever ache for sooho ending up on his deathbed after going apeshit seeing sieun hide the injury he got on sooho’s behalf.. and sieun throwing away his whole future when he went and hurt everyone who did that to sooho..

it hits different after i read the equivalent chapters in the webtoon because the suho-sieun-focused friendship story was prolonged for the drama adaptation. sooho was kinda not that interesting in the webtoon so i loved everything they changed and added for his character in the drama. but also like im upset because now im endlessly attached to him.. [edit: in case i piss off webtoon!suho lovers, it’s a personal preference. i love him too but i just cant help but be more emotionally attached to drama!suho] like fuck why did they have to write such a tragic friendship story between highschoolers im fucking done

end of rant ugh i hate myself for this

I genuinely really really appreciate that cyberpunk’s trans characters don’t face any adversity due to their transness. That’s something that happens in real life constantly. I face it. It’s realistic, if you will, but it’s good as fuck to see characters not deal with it. 2077 is a horrible year to be alive. Night City is a horrible place to live. I'm sure people are still transphobic because it's something that will likely never go away no matter how far in the future it is, but god, is it nice to not see it.

Claire and Jago both face adversities in their respective missions. But it has nothing to do with them being trans. It’s because they’re competition, and they’re fierce competition. Both of them are successful and respected, and seeing this in Jago especially was something that led me to accepting that I was trans after struggling with this realization for a very long time. It's a minute detail in the grand scheme of cyberpunk 2077, but portraying trans people as successful and respected will always be incredibly, incredibly important.
