#see what papa korn thinks of his great plan after a few months

[fromperdition4]

So, quick question:

See, I'm asking because I don't know how Korn could come back after everything that's happened...

We saw in the meeting Kinn held with their 'business' associates that the news of Korn's death wasn't just kept within their family, to lure Gun to act. Everyone thinks Korn's dead and that Kinn now has full control of the main family.

In this same meeting, Kinn kills two of their associates, who questioned his authority:

Now that could have been part of Korn's plans, to let his ruthless son take care of disloyal allies - fun fact: this whole argument started over the main family not being fast enough to sign a Russian dealer, Mr. Vadim, who Kinn was supposed to meet in the last episode before Korn very kindly rescheduled it.

But, even still - how would it look for Korn if he came back to life after both this meeting and the coup? What would all of the other gangs think of Korn's deception leading to the deaths of three leaders (the two here, as well as Gun's)?

I think that would be a step too far away from the 'fair and reasonable’ image Korn projects of himself. It would cause too much unrest among the underworld, and threaten the very power he's spent so long cultivating.

No - I think Korn is stuck here. Whether he intended to or not, he's now locked himself permanently in his compound.

Like he did to Nampheung.
