stuck on the fact that a small part of Dongsik hoped for 20 entire years that Yuyeon was still alive. he fantasized about coming across her in random places and was anxious about recognizing her as a 40 year old woman because he genuinely still held onto a glimmer of hope for two decades. ten years and another ten years after than. half his life picturing his sister dead and alive turn by turn. maybe even when he burst the wall open he still thought there was a chance it would be empty.

and isn't it supremely fucked up that for the enormous, cataclysmic impact that Yuyeon's disappearance had on Dongsik and the central place that his love for her occupies in his motivations as a character, the only time they interact on-screen is when he finally finds her body and tenderly cradles her long-dead hands in his.

#tbh one of the rare instance of the absence of their relationship onscreen doesnt make the emotional weight of her loss any lighter #like. his twin is Gone From Him. they'll never be together again so we never get to see them together #because we've come in too late in the story for that. the death's already happened they've already been ripped apart.#and yet she's everywhere!!#the way she was central to his life from the moment they were born; now it's her absence that's at the centre of him #like. yeah i dont need 20 minutes of them being saccharine happy as a prequel #because the consequences of her disappearance tell us everything we need fo know about the relationship they had #beyond evil
