As for Hwijae’s feelings regarding his mini-me (Irok), here’s an explanation bc the Manwha sucks at explaining:
Hwijae feels super guilty and uncomfortable about being the one to collect Irok, or just be around him at all bc he doesn’t know what’ll happen. However he feels guilty bc the moment he steps into Irok’s life, he deprives Irok if all the joy and Happiness Hwijae received in his original life (which cannot happen since Hunter Hong will not longer be his dad). In the novel, he explains that the happiness Hunter Hong was able to provide for Hwijae as his father is what allowed Hwijae to recover from the laboratory and all that truama, and brush it off. But no Irok won’t get to experience that, and Hwijae doesn’t believe he can make the kid happy. He says he wants to kill Irok because he simply doesn’t know how to handle his feelings, both the uncertainty that Irok will cause for Hwijae’s life, but also the guilt Irok causes.
I read to novel so to clarify what’s happening:
Back in the research lab Hwijae (No. 12) was spoiled bc he was a very precious experiment. One of the bird-mask people tended to him often, and they were like brothers. In No.12’s original life, that bird-mask disappeared about a year before No. 12 was rescued. The name ‘Hwijae’ was originally the bird-mask’s name. Since No.12 didn’t have a name, bird-mask gave him the name Irok. No.12 treasured this name, and didn’t want to share it with anyone. So after he was saved and was asked for him name, he kept it to himself. But he wanted Bird-mask to be able to find him (because bird-mask still hadn’t returned) so he used bird-mask’s name instead (Hwijae). But by the time everything was sorted, No.12 had become Hwijae in everyone’s eyes, so he just kept the name and buried ‘Irok’. So when he goes to pick his mini-me in this life, the kid has yet to be saved and thus only goes by No.12, and is at that point waiting for bird-mask to return. Hwijae pretends to be that Bird-mask to get No.12 to go with him, and also calls him Irok- the name only No.12 and bird-mask know. In Hwijae’s original life, he never ever saw Bird-mask again.
i think it’s a life circle he make, like he make the future him to became his brother i mean like brainwashing himself…..but idk let’s believe the plot story from author🗿
So he had an older brother all along and decided to take his name cuz he didn’t come to get him?? But now the “brother” came, so he kept his original name??
