Gotham’s prodigal son buying Cocaine...from his brother?

Independent journalist ( @secretidentie ) posted a conversation they claimed to have overheard between the three eldest Wayne children earlier this evening, sparking a host of controversy surrounding the Wayne family (see post here)

The journalist claimed to have overheard Tim Drake, CEO of Wayne enterprises, ask his older brother, Jason Todd, to buy him cocaine so he could fit in with the other ‘young finance bros’ of the Gotham Elite. To this the journalist claims Mr. Todd initially refused, stating that while he might be a crime lord he was not a drug dealer, and their older brother Dick Grayson stepped in.

They then claimed that Mr. Grayson agreed with Mr. Todd, showing concern for his younger brother’s health and safety and threatening to tell their father, billionaire and philanthropist Bruce Wayne, that the second youngest Wayne son was attempting to restart the crack epidemic in Gotham (though this journal would like to point out how it has never truly gone away, and the sheer absurdity of the claim that one boy could restart an entire drug epidemic).

The entire interaction ends with the independent journalist claiming that Mr. Todd threatened to buy a ‘fuck ton’ of cocaine to ‘rub it in’ Mr. Drake’s face. Following this Mr. Drake is silent for a few moments before the journalist claims he asks if Mr. Todd could buy him meth instead.

This publication would like to squash these rumours as the sheer absurdity of the whole altercation would make more sense in one of the Joker’s schemes than a conversation between the eldest sons of the Bruce Wayne.

On top of the obvious sensationalism, the fact that the independent journalist in question failed to provide any proof of this incident nor how they may have acquired such information brings to question the credibility of any of their prior claims.

For further explanation we reached out to Mr. Drake himself who confirms that this article is completely fabricated, stating that he and his brothers would never do such a thing. He stated that he and his family were deeply offended that anyone would ever even insinuate that they would partake in the less-than-legal side of Gotham, after which he went on to voice his concerns for the oral health of anyone who participates in such activities.

Though the other Wayne children involved in this situation were not available to comment, we wanted to put the minds of the Gotham people at ease. We do not believe that the original article has any truth within it and would like to stress the importance of fact checking and reliable reporting (of which we, the Gotham Report, are certified).

As always, we’d love to here your thoughts on the topic (here)

It was Yeo Jingoo who suggested to director Shim Nayeon that Joowon should kneel before Dongsik after confessing his father's sins.

Such a simple yet impactful gesture tied together the religious imagery that reveals layers of meaning to the scene—especially given that Dongsik's family is canonically Catholic.

Dongsik's family home is a dead garden littered with statues of fallen angels, calling to mind an image of a metaphorical Garden of Eden that has long been abandoned.

The heavenly light shining on Dongsik immediately flickers as soon as he calls for Joowon one more time—like a metaphorical God calling the prodigal sinner to come home.

In walks Joowon, from behind the imagery of the bars of the gate, like a sinner willingly walking into his own prison.

He looks up and sees his source of salvation—one he believes he doesn't deserve.

In previous scenes before this, it had been Joowon who had been at a higher vantage point looking down at Dongsik—the judge looking down at the sinner who dared desecrate the murder scene of the one he loved as his own daughter.

Here, their moral standings are now severely reversed, as Dongsik is the one who now holds the moral higher ground as the family of the victim Joowon's father had murdered.

Yet just like the metaphorical Son of God who descended from heaven onto earth to save mankind—Dongsik descends downstairs to face the sinner asking for punishment.

But Dongsik doesn't know this yet. All he sees is a man unmoored, needing a guiding light back home, and he starts to lead the way, asking him to come inside.

Yet Joowon refuses the gates to heaven, this path to salvation—not when he hasn't confessed his sins yet.

And this is where the mask of a metaphorical God falls apart to reveal a vengeful man tormented for 21 years in purgatory as he seeks that elusive justice from losing his other half.

Dongsik is only human. And for a single breathtaking moment, he is overcome with righteous anger and the intent to kill.

And here, on equal ground, is where Joowon the sinner saves Dongsik too:

He saves him from becoming a monster like his father. He stops Dongsik from even the smallest temptation of becoming a murderer like his own flesh and blood.

Here, drenched in the rain, is a metaphorical baptism: a chance for them to be cleansed, to be reborn.

And here, in this metaphorical rebirth, Joowon kneels on the ground, a supplicant at Dongsik's altar.

Dongsik is not a God. He is only human, like Joowon, one that has every chance of becoming a monster—had he chosen to.

If he chooses to.

The hands holding Dongsik tightly aren't just a prayer for forgiveness—for salvation.

They're stopping Dongsik from becoming a monster, too.

Joowon holds Dongsik tight not only to ask for salvation.

He is here to offer it to Dongsik, too.

Here, on equal ground, baptized and reborn under the rain—

Here is how Lee Dongsik and Han Joowon begin to save each other.
