My Weige Predictions/Ponderings

I am under the impression that Luka does genuinely love Hyuna, but due to his upbringing, the way he presents his love is not healthy (for himself or the people around him). I have a feeling that this effect doesn't stop at just Hyuna and love. We see that no one really hangs out with him except for Hyuna and Hyunwoo. Perhaps his maladaptive coping mechanisms drove away potential friends, further isolating Luka to the 'love' of his seigyein.

Based off of that impression, I am also under the impression that Luka killed Hyunwoo to gain Hyuna's attention. She clearly loves her brother, and perhaps in Luka's maladapted mind, if Hyunwoo were gone, then Hyuna's love/attention would be all for him. Perhaps his seigyein used similarly abusive tactics against him.

Hyuna has been ignoring Luka, both in the teaser and throughout other rounds. In the past, she seems to have been the only one to have given him much attention, and that ultimately led to Hyunwoo's death. Perhaps she's trying the opposite tactic of giving him minimal attention? (Or it's a reaction to the painful memories that Luka brings up, plus being busy with the revolution) It was what all the other kids had done, after all.

If that's the case, I have a feeling that it will fail. In the trailer, there is a gun being held to Luka's head and he doesn't pay it much mind. Luka has been stated to have been trained to overcome fear, so the gun is probably not going to keep him at bay (I wonder if Hyuna is aware of Luka's lack of fear? Was the gun to intimidate Luka or threaten the aliens that are so obsessed with him?). Also, side thought: Luka's earpiece is still in. Will we see it turn red during this round?

I think Hyuna will try to give some sort of moving performance to the crowd (much like her actions in the Our Diva comic) that highlights the abuse committed by Anakt Garden, and the treatment of humans in general. However, Luka will try to get her attention, undermining her performance and message. How will Hyuna react? She can't just kill him to get him out of the way; he's too beloved by the seigyein (and I doubt she would want to see him dead anyway). What will the seigyein do if Hyuna's attempt fails? Will they kill her? How would Luka react if they did?

And finally, Mizi. How does she factor into Hyuna's plan? If Luka were to interrupt the performance, would Mizi step-up and continue it in Hyuna's place? Luka has won this round of Alien Stage, so would he feel the need to out-compete Mizi? Or would he focus his attention on Hyuna? Mizi being kidnapped from the stage only to be seen alive and relatively safe might raise interest amongst the seigyein.

Though I doubt Weige will spend much time, if any, on Mizi. Her role will probably be more involved in a future episode. So many questions! Can't wait to find answers on the 14th!
