Yes, Juwon does tell Inheon what happens in the dungeon. He was scared that what he experienced wasn't real, and he was unsure of how to tell him and admitted that he was being selfish in keeping it from him as that may have been the only good memories Inheon had of them, and he didn't want to ruin them for him. He was also scared that what he felt for Inheon was influenced by what he saw in the dungeon, even though he was sure he loved him before that, so he waited until he could confidently say that he grown to love Inheon even more than what he used to. He tells him every little detail (but acted really vague with the psyche part lol) and they're honestly so sweet I was going to combust.

Kang Inheon picked up a really valuable gem from a dungeon and kept it in his pocket to gift to Lee Juwon, because he knows Juwon likes money.. 🥺

Inheon loved Juwon obsessively, he practically worshipped him, he was his reason for living, but at the same time something I realised a lot of people didn't mention was the fact Inheon hated Juwon as well. He hated the person he became, but he waited for Juwon to change because he believed that it was arrogant to think you can change someone. The only one who could change Juwon was Juwon himself. Still, he never stopped trying to show him the wrong of his actions and that was the reason why they constantly argued with each other.

Juwon, on the other hand, knew he was a terrible person. But he didn't care. It was so deeply ingrained in him that it was a dog eat dog world after everything he had been through and he was terrified of having things stolen away from him again, whether it were the people he loved or his money. The debt he carried as a minor to adulthood and the fact he worked himself to the bone (120 hours a week is f*cking insane) slowly became normal to him and he criticized others for not having as much drive because his entire worldview had become twisted. His person became a mess of anxiety that no matter how much money he gathered, it'd never be enough, he'd always return to the same kid who lived in a leaky, small basement room who would starve on some days just to live another day. But that is also why Juwon is such a strong character, because he persevered against the odds and rose up again.

Even after Juwon had changed, Inheon couldn't believe that he wouldn't revert to the person he was before, which I found very realistic. Juwon didn't get off with a simple slap on the wrist, he worked hard to show that he would change himself for the better. As much as Juwon did bad, there were also heavily exaggerated rumours about him. Although it doesn't excuse his actions, I do think it gives him more dimension. He overworked his employees, but he overworked himself much more. He wasn't a comically evil rich man who wanted all for himself and underpaid his employees either. He paid them an extremely good pay, which was probably the reason why they continued to work for him.

I think this is one of the stories that need to be reread again to catch small details. It's obvious the author put a lot of thought into the characters and their story, and in the end, everything was connected.

Even though I found the Psyche arc a bit long at first, it makes sense now that I think about it. There are little to no survivors of this dungeon, and Psyche was the reason why. Even if they managed to pass the trials and reach the end, no one had a resolve strong enough to leave. It seems like they couldn't escape Psyche either, since the squirrel's only conclusion was that Juwon made Psyche so angry it kicked him out. However, Psyche set Juwon free after several time loops where it continuously tried to keep Juwon from regaining consciousness of the situation. Even though it imitated Inheon and that's the reason why Juwon thought it loved him so dearly, I can't help but think Psyche itself did love Juwon : (I mean, it even helped him after it stopped posing as Inheon and showed itself as a butterfly to help Inheon bring Juwon out of the dungeon.

Juwon loved Inheon so deeply that he repeatedly broke through the illusion and was even willing to kill himself in the illusion to get out. Juwon didn't want to restart or go back in time, he wanted to meet the unhappy Inheon and fix everything he did wrong, which I found very touching.

inserting an inexplicable unrequited lover to die sadly in MC's arms as part of an already annoyingly long forced amnesia arc

I was most impressed by the time-travel aspect and the last chapter in the extras. At first, I was almost disappointed that the author didn't have the MC tell the ML about his time-travel experience.

However, I soon realized the elegance in the phrase "when we first met."

For the MC, "when they first met" was when he was an adult; the time-travel for him occurred after he had fallen for the ML already. The MC experienced growth through his suffering as an adult, which in turn changed him and his interactions with the ML when he went back to their childhood (such as him not wanting the ML to suffer the same way he had from the broken shoe when he fell down the stairs in the dungeon).

Which is why the MC, despite knowing that the ML was disappointed that he didn't bring up their brief childhood together, never deviated from saying that "when they first met" for him was when they met in the cafe as adults.

Really well done.

Especially the bits where the dungeon got him to remember the last Christmas present his parents gave him being an mp3 player he used so frequently while struggling through sleepless nights it broke?? And then don't even get me started on the fact that his company is named December because it's the month Kang Inheon onboarded as the first member aside from himself!?

The way Inheon grapples with being in love with the memory of someone who is no longer that person to point where his love is tainted by bitterness, yet still existing as love in form of sick obsession keeps me up at night. I feel that the magnitude of his breakdown after Juwon came out of the dungeon and started adjusting his attitude seemingly out of nowhere was so warranted, because imagine how scared you have to be for what you've been waiting seven (?) years for to finally happen—what if it's fake? What if the sliver of hope placed in your hands is suddenly and violently ripped away from you; how could you possibly let yourself hope while the possibility for falsehood is still on the table? As an S-Class hunter Inheon can literally stop time itself, yet he can't control his own feelings or the actions of the only person he cares about.

It's later when you realize the current ML is just using the MC's past sunshine persona and he's actually quite dark and gloomy in truth. The part where the ML feel like he's still a thief because he even "stole" the MC's personality made me feel things :')

As mentioned previously, the ML is rational so after the MC's personality changed he would first doubt it. So when the MC confesses out of the blue, I understand his anger (thinking MC is using his feelings to tie him down) and distrust. But-

The ML suddenly speaking vulgarly to the MC and calling him worn out or loose implying that the MC sleeps around is so random. I got whiplashed from the entire conversation like h-hello now is not the time for dirty talk 😭😭 I don't know whether to feel offended for the MC or laugh at how weird the conversation turned out

understand he didn't greet his staff and he should have more employees. Overwork is evil, everything else I honestly don't see much of a problem with. He's doing his best for both his employees and him. He's not sociable and doesn't like kids. I don't see a problem with that. I don't like that his take away is "I'll be good now too" and let's get along in the future. A lot of these stories have characters give up their ideals. I don't know if it were real I'd probably care more
