[ . . . for a moment, there is a little bit of tension in soo-won's hand at the idea of goat being thrown away.

soo-won perhaps is not allowed to criticize. when he killed il, in the same breath he threw away hak and yona because they could not continue to live in the kingdom that they had turned blind eyes to for so long. it is not as though he is a stranger to the notion of abandoning those you had claimed to love.

but it feels different.

to do so without remorse, to abandon goat because he was no longer 'needed' in a world that acts so cruelly and treats others without dignity....

he tries to understand - but he still yet struggles.]

Even if you may not have been a good teacher.... You deserve more than what you were given.

I'm sorry, my friend.

You are more than the 'use' others might think you can offer them.
