Yeo Un-ahh, what's your real identity? :(

daebak. the way this drama is hella intense in a way that drives me crazy!!!three points of this episode:1. Yeo Un went with his Heokso Chorong assassins to kill the three martial arts trainee friends during his mountain days. he sliced/stabbed them himself indeed as was seen in the last episode's cliffhanger but in this episode, we could see that after the other assassins have left, he ran back over quickly to treat their wounds and they did not die. and when the person who knew it was Yeo Un woke up, he was surprised to see Yeo Un there but knowing that he and his friends did not die, he didn't give away Yeo Un's real assassin identity when asked about the incident.2. when Dong Soo volunteered to go into the box in place of the Crown Prince who was stripped of his title and given a sentence of solitary confinement because the alleged act of treason (he wore a robe that had Qing Dynasty emperor's signature given by Joseon Queen). but Cho Rip overheard the Commander's conversation that Dong Soo is the last bloodline of the Baek clan, and that their Master gave up an arm for his life. so he went for it instead of Dong Soo, and the way Dong Soo went crazy amok about it. that scene was so touching and it made me cry. JCW was exceptional in that scene, Dong Soo's really a great character, so loyal and unselfish.3. when the Sky Lord assassin master found Crown Prince who was on the run with the Commander, and he fought him. then the Commander saw Yeo Un coming with the assassin group, so he knew right away. he went over to slice Yeo Un, but got blocked by Sky Lord and got stabbed instead, because Yeo Un is the successor of the Hokseo Churong group so one should kill the boy. the blow here is that Yeo Un was the one who finished the job because the Sky Lord is there, sighhh.//i wanna know what's the real deal with Yeo Un's character. clearly he's a bit messed up in the head. true that he pledged his loyalty with the Hokseo Chorong in his teenager but he has lived most of his life with good people, especially Dok Soo and Cho Rip. not sure what's the real deal behind him not leaving the assassin group, i suspect because they'll kill him right away if he ever tries to leave.but there's a similar character to Yeo Un's here that i have seen in another sageuk. it's the SML character in My Country: The New Age played by Woo Do Hwan (not assassin, but someone who's a real heart-breaker). but Yoo Seung Ho, wow. this boy steals my eyes everytime the camera's on him. the scene when he finished off the Commander by stabbing him, the only dialogue he uttered was "i'm sorry" but his eyes were as painful and deep as the ocean how do i deal :((if you hear a sound somewhere, it's the sound of my heart breaking into pieces because of Yeo Un. :/
