It's been a long time but I gotta say something about this one.
Absolutely gruesome psychological Horror.
One thing people must learn is that this is *NOT* intended to be some sexy, SM, toxic relationship, romance yaoi with a bad boy who "can be fixed".
This is abt rape, sexual assault, child abuse, murder and most importantly two individuals who are deeply damaged.
And because of their deeply damaged psyche they complement each other in a way that makes them function.
But (!) their functionality reinforces their sick behaviour. In their functionality they are dysfunctional.
And this is what Killing Stalking is about. Not some romance.
And Sangwoo is NOT gay and should in no way be interpreted as such.
Koogi even Shows us that he isn't.
1. He is shown having sex with Women throughout the Series.
2. Most important one: the moment he calls Yoonbum "Mom" during a sexual situation in which he is in a more submissive position.
In conclusion: Sangwoo is projecting his mother on to Yoonbum. At all times. Because of his submissive position he is reminded of the abuse from her he had to endure as a powerless and therefore "submissive" child.
There are flashbacks that show that yoonbum and his mom bare a strong resemblance and that he is reminded of her when he looks at him.
