LOL look who is in a hell of her own making again.

I watched The Guest while we were on holiday in South Korea and it was a REVELATION. I could not believe that the drama we watched because "it looks like a fun gothic horror thing and Kim Jaewook plays a hot priest" was capable of bodying me like MCTNA did the first time (and every time since)

But rewatching to incept @judiwench and @moodybluestocking has cemented it deepdeepdeep in my DNA.

I am SO VERY SCREWED.

For this man, who is so terrible at people and so haunted and so hot and so every lifelong Catholic kink I have ever had in a long boi body. Trying his best at all times.

Choi Yoon, who is so in love with a boatload of disregulated impulses in the body of a PTSD-addled, cute-aggression-inspiring, chaos gremlin of a man.

THEM. I AM FERAL OVER THEM.

For Gilyoung: precious, beautiful, brave, strong, steadfast and vulnerable Gilyoung who loves her stupid boys so much and who is their rock and who deserves THE WORLD. When she cries it's like being stabbed very slowly and painfully.

THEM. THE FOUND FAMILY/QUEER PLATONIC (ISH) OT3 OF MY DREAMS.

I love them alllllllll.

BUT THAT ONE THERE? THAT ONE? YEAH. He is a massive, massive liferuining problem for me.

Yoon Hwapyung. GOD. That beautiful, eviscerating, self-blaming, trauma magnet, brat of a man. He makes my entire chest ache and makes me want to a) protect him, b) whump him to the East Sea and back.

And boy does he get whumped (as do they all, bless this galaxy brain show)

I cannot comprehend just how Kim Dongwook manages to hold two polar opposite characters in his face at THE SAME TIME?! Those tears while (redacted) is (redacted) are my doom.

I just. I can't. The SEVENTEEN MINUTE sequence culminating in (redacted) in episode sixteen is just the most exquisitely beautiful things I have ever seen and words will never do it justice.

And then. THEN. Well, if you've seen it you know and if you haven't I will not spoil too much but. UGH. Incredible. So many tears. SO SO MANY. SO SO MANY.

Anyway I love them so so much and already have multiple fics and vids in the works and no I have not forgotten about MCTNA but The Guest has lodged itself in there next to my lovely Joseon himbos and isn't going away anytime soon.

I am also bitches.

Yoo Joonghyuk's timeline (approx.)

The scenarios start when he is 28 years old. We know this from the first time Kim Dokja activates Character Summary, so at least that's for certain.

And we actually get his POV of the first time he went through the first scenario. Here's what World Of Zero has to say for himself.

There's a couple of things here. When he talks about 'discord between teamates and director's high-handedness' he's talking about events of Yoo Mia side story, which he said happened 'years ago'.

Since then, he has stopped going out of the house, so, become a shut-in, and is 'staying under the radar'. Presumably, he's not working as a pro-gamer anymore.

One other thing he mentions is that his sister was left to him when he was 'on the fast track to success'. More on that later.

Here he quickly summarizes his whole pre-scenarios life, skipping some details. All of this is expanded on in yoo mia side story, but it's nice to have corroboration from the main story.

Onto Yoo Mia Side story. Let's say it happened 3 years before the start of the scenarios for simplicity's sake, since that's an amount of time that could be described as 'years ago' while also not so long ago that the media would have forgotten him completely. So Yoo Joonghyuk would be 25 years old in Yoo Mia side story.

He had been on Team Ash for 3 years total at this point, since he was 22 years old. A year into his gaming career with Ash, at 23, he got a big break and became famous.

This must be around when he got Yoo Mia left at his door.

If she wasn't a newborn, she was still very young. I think if she was 1 year old at the time, she would be 3 years old in Yoo Mia side story and 6 years old at the start of scenarios, which makes sense to me. She already knows how to talk in Yoo Mia side story, but her sentences are quite simple and she baby-talks a lot, which would match the development of a 3 year old. Kang Woohyun seems to think her language skills are lacking for her age, but that's probably because she (is implied to have) some kind of speech impediment.

(This would mean post timeskip, she's the youngest transcendent in history at 9 or 10 years old. Also, she calls Gilyoung and Yoosung 'oppa' and 'eonni', meaning they are older than her. If they at 11 years old and she is 6, that tracks.)

One thing that makes no sense is that Yoo Joonghyuk says she's 'about 68 cm tall'. That's the height of a 10 month old baby, which she definitely isn't, as she walks and talks and eats solid foods. I'll assume Yoo Joonghyuk is just bad at judging heights and leave it at that.

Back to Yoo Joonghyuk.

Here he is reminiscing on meeting Park Jinsang 3 years ago at 22 years old.

Before that, he was at his first 'workplace' - Director Kim's camp. This is his earliest memory, as Zero tells us, the 'illegal work site' he conveniently spawned in.

He worked there for an unknown amount of time until Park Jinsang took him away. Probably somewhere between a couple of months and 4 years, since the impact it left on him leads me to believe it wasn't less than a month and it couldn't have been much before he was 18, since Zero says this and he's probably right.

Yoo Mia side story Yoo Joonghyuk says it a little differently, that he 'doesn't remember when he started living alone.'

I interpret this as his first memory is still spawning at Director Kim's camp, but he just assumes there must have been something before that, as he's younger and less shrewd than Zero and hasn't accepted the supernatural nature of his amnesia.

Okay, there's one more thing and then this damn post can be over.

Yoo Joonghyuk at one point calls his past with Park Jinsang his 'teenage years' when he would have been over 20 at that point. If this isn't a translation error, I think Yoo Joonghyuk is being hyperbolic here in that it feels like 'teen years' to him as it's his earliest memories and he was a lot more naive back then. It's the only way I can figure it all making sense in a cohesive way...

Aaaaand that's it! Yoo Joonghyuk's life from around 18 to 28 years in reverse chronological order :P

[hehearse]

shin yoosung with peace and blue and the others from sctir... shin yoosung hanging out with yoojin... shin yoosung absolutely adoring all the animals... introducing yoojin to chimera...

yoojin with his dragon slayer title meeting kids' chimera dragon is an intriguing concept..... :D but i raise you this: kang soyoung meeting shin yoosung and lee gilyoung (+ their chimera dragon)

[ot3showdown]

It's too late for nominations, and it def wouldn't have had enough support anyway. But i have another obscure ot3 ship for ya.

It's the main 3 characters from "The Guest" kdrama. It's like a bad joke: a priest, a cop, and a shaman walk into a bar.

The shaman (Yoon Hwapyung) was possed by a demon as a kid and the priest (Choi Yoon)'s older brother (also a priest) tried to exorcise him and then HE got possessed and killed their entire family, except the younger bro, because the cop (kang gilyoung)'s mom (also a cop) saved him (but she got killed in the process). So, all three of them are tied by fate and by these tragedies. And now the demon is BACK (or never left!), and they are trying to hunt it down to stop it. And, of course, they become emotionally dependent on each other and also try to do self-sacrifice to save the others.

Ok thats all. Hope u enjoyed the info dump. This show is so so so good by the way. I think its still on netflix if anyone is looking for a rec in the supernatural thriller genre.

man these kdrama deal with a lot of demons.

[cottagehorror-lesbians-stuff]

just finished 손 the guest. the part where choi yoon and kang gilyoung desperately try to protect yoon hwapyung, struggling miserably in the sea. the part where choi yoon and yoon hwapyung are underwater, saving each other. the rosary, their hands… that was a lot.

[i-am-just-a-kiddo]

sorry this took a while but for the character ask game: shang xirui from winter begonia, your priest guy from the guest, and lee rang(?) from totnt ^^

Thank you for sending this dear 💖This is gonna be difficult but here we go I guess?

for this Ask Game.

Shang Xirui (Winter Begonia):

Favourite thing about them : his passion for his art and his honesty, the wide depths of his emotions.

Least favourite thing about them : his violent and abusive side. No matter how much sympathy I have for his trauma, it does not excuse some behaviour.

Favourite line : "All of my most valuable things of Shuiyun are in this room. The Founder, my dad, Jiulang's gift, and you." - The way I sobbed at this moment, and the way Cheng Fengtai can't believe that Shang Xirui just called him one of his most valuable things. It's just a very sweet moment and that just shows how much I love the way SXR expresses his feelings.

BrOTP : Chen Renxiang. I love this strange friendship they had going on, of being rivals but also knowing each other so deeply and caring for each other? When they first introduced Chen Renxiang, I did not expect to get invested in their relationship like this. It felt so flawed and yet the affection was real?

OTP: Cheng Fengtai of course, because they are married and in love.

NOTP: hmm. I'm not sure, there must be a ton that wouldn't be my thing. I guess I don't like interpreting his relationship with Xiao Lai as romantic? I absolutely adored the friendship and love that they shared, and I know that she was the only one SXR thought of marrying, but I never saw it as something romantic. They've gone through everything together and she was the one person that SXR trusted unconditionally. They were family.

Random headcanon: Shang Xirui is ace and non-binary, you can fight me on this ✌

unpopular opinion: Idk if it's unpopular, but he's the sexiest Winter Begonia character, hands down.

favourite picture of them: I took it from here x.

Choi Yoon/ Father Matteo (aka. 'my priest guy from The Guest'):

Favourite thing about them : It sounds strange, but maybe his rage? I like seeing him express his emotions, even if it is anger, because he is so closed off from everything, it's nice to see that it bursts out from time to time. I'm glad he has at least that, eventhough that makes him act stupid sometimes.

Least favourite thing about them : The way he expresses worry by trying to shut everyone out? I hated it when he tried to talk down Kang Gilyoung from joining them because it's too dangerous for her. I understand where he's coming from, but he should stop acting like he holds the authority to stop anyone. Also the way he just assumed that Hwa Pyeung could never possibly relate to him, lol what a moron.

Favourite line : Whenever he speaks prayers lol. Okay jk, it might be this: "Lord, I’m trying to save my friend today. I’ll risk my life fighting against my enemy. Please spare my friend." - This just hits me deeply every fucking time I watch it. Also technically it's a prayer too.

BrOTP : Kang Gilyoung. I love how they care about each other and accept that they've gone through similar things. I feel like she became a person that Choi Yoon can comfortably talk to in a way he's never had before? Someone that is his age and knows his pain and simply accepts it, without nagging or too much fuss, eventually at least.

OTP: Yoon Hwa Pyeung. These two disaster men struggle opening up to someone else and they are especially bad when it comes to each other and yet they keep circling each other. So much pent up frustration and raging tension and gay desperation that eventually turns to trust and love. The good shit.

NOTP: Hmm, Kang Gilyoung maybe? I don't mind the OT3 reading of this trio but I prefer it a lot more if Gilyoung is the ace queen of the group stuck with a disaster couple. She is the only one holding all of them afloat lol. And as stated above, I like their friendship as it is without any romantic subtext.

Random headcanon: Maybe you can count my queer reading of him as a headcanon, but I won't leave it at that. I don't know if it's necessarily a headcanon, but I read him as someone who is deeply traumatised by religion (his abusive parents, his possessed priest brother who tried to kill him, the abuse he suffers in his priesthood) and yet he hasn't lost his faith. I know he said that he became an exorcist to find his brother, aka find the demon who did it, but I do believe that he genuinely is deeply religious, which simultaneously gives him comfort and even more pain.

unpopular opinion: I don't know any popular opinions in this fandom? So I can't think of anything

favourite picture of them: I think this one because i love to see him suffer >:) taken from here x.

Lee Rang ( Tale of the Nine-Tailed):

Favourite thing about them : His longing for family and being loved. Also his IDGAF attitude while giving way too many fucks.

Least favourite thing about them : his fixation on his big brother because it will be his downfall. but it also makes his character so I can't say I don't like it. He just deserves better.

Favourite line : ugh I had to scroll through tumblr for a bit so I find smth and there is not really one that stuck but I like: "I won't give my heart to something like that ever again. Never again..." - after finding the little boy that is his reincarnated puppy? Because he tries so badly to be detached from affection and emotion and yet he simply can't stop himself. He is so afraid of love while he craves it like air.

BrOTP : Ugh, I don't like saying it but Lee Yeon. Honestly, maybe I'm Lee Rang-biased but I hate how fixated he is on Lee Yeon while Lee Yeon is just out there doing his shit and being this hero and just. I hated it but it also broke me into a million pieces. I guess I have to call them an BroTP, just because their storyline just made me cry so badly. I don't like it though. Maybe I'm just annoyed by Lee Yeon. Do you see why Lee Rang is my favourite?

OTP: Not really an OTP but the found family he has with Yuri and Shinjoo is just 😭😭 Everything. I don't really know to what extend I ship this little family romantically but gosh, if Lee Rang isn't at least a lil bit in love with the both of them I will eat a shoe.

NOTP: I guess Nam Jiah? I don't really remember what their interactions where ( I forgot most of this show lol) but I remember being scared that they make Lee Rang being interested in his brother's girlfriend? I honestly can't remember what they did in the show but if they did that, I blocked it from my mind lol. I just wanted to hear nothing about it.

Random headcanon: He is secretely obsessed with soft fluffy things and is full of joy when the little boy gives him and excuse to play/buy/ surround himself with such stuff.

unpopular opinion: Uhm once again I don't know any, sorry.

favourite picture of them: He is 600 years old. from here x.

Thanks again for asking!! It took ages to get here, I'm sorry.
