Is sangwoo gay

So he wasn't gay. Personally I think he was bi. He was straight. I think Bum caught his attention at first because he knew he’d have total control over Bum (since Bum told him about his obsession with him). That’s a lot of fun for a psychopath who strongly desires people (or his mom I guess) to want and need him. Oh Sangwoo (오상우) is one of the main characters of Killing Stalking, written and illustrated by Koogi. Sangwoo is a man in his early twenties of tall, muscular stature.

He has wavy, light brown hair with a black undercut. He has pronounced dark bags underneath his eyes. He later cuts his hair, leaving the top layer straight and slightly shorter. Oh Sangwoo is the second main character of Killing Stalking, the primary antagonist. Behind his fake facade in public, he is actually a cruel and ruthless individual who kidnaps, tortures and kills people, showing absolutely no mercy to his victims or remorse for any of his actions.

Unfortunately no. Sangwoo himself says that he is not gay to Yoon. The Author herself said that Sangwoo is a (quote on quote) “heterosexual misogynistic man” so no, he is straight. Sangwoo is straight because he is not sexually attracted to men- including Bum; he has sex with Bum despite the fact that he’s a man.

What Sangwoo is initially interested in Bum’s obsession and unhealthy devotion to him.

A man Sangwoo meets at a

Yoon Bum is an isolated and disturbed orphan. He lives with his extremely abusive uncle. During his compulsory military service, he is sexually assaulted by his fellow cadets until another young soldier sees the attack and gets help. This mysterious saviour, Oh Sangwoo, is handsome, popular, and a fellow orphan.

His parents are murdered five years before the story starts. Yoon Bum. Not exactly a cinnamon roll but he has a few cute moments. Bum becomes obsessed with Sangwoo, and begins stalking him after their military service is over. They attend many of the same college classes. Bum stares on forlornly whilst Sangwoo is surrounded by a cluster of friends, from girls who are attracted to him, to boys who admire him. A strange noise leads Bum to the basement.

There on the floor is a naked and beaten local socialite, hogtied and in a state of disarray. For various reasons, Sangwoo decides to keep Bum alive. He too suffered violence from his parents. His mother tried to smother him when he was an infant, and years later, after an adolescent Sangwoo uncovers her extramarital affair, she tells him to come to the ground floor bedroom at midnight, where he can secretly watch her having sex with his dad as proof of how much she loves her husband.

The family situation worsens when Sangwoo walks in on his father beating his mother. He tries to intervene, but his dad knocks his head on the kitchen table and dies. They go on a journey to bury him in the forest, and after his death a very uncomfortable, slightly incestuous relationship develops in the home, where Sangwoo is constantly on edge and in fear of his life, especially when he discovers that his mother has been slowly lacing his food with rat poison.

During their final altercation, she forces Sangwoo to press a knife into her throat. Her final words are a declaration that Sangwoo will die a most painful death.

Her parting words affect Sangwoo deeply, and whilst he has an easy-go-lucky air among his friends, he is painfully paranoid and fearful of betrayal, which is why he oscillates between hatred and desperation towards Bum. Bum provides Sangwoo with the perfect remedy to his problems: he is physically weak, a social pariah, lonely and friendless. His obsession with Sangwoo makes Sangwoo feel wanted and necessary, which is why he grows violent, fearful, and obsessive whenever Bum shows the slightest bit of independence.

For Bum, Sangwoo is the man he has secretly admired for so long, and so to finally be in his home, playing housewife, sharing his most intimate and dangerous secrets, and being the object of his attention—no matter how violent and aggressive—is a dream come true. Bum shows his loyalty to Sangwoo by offering his body, by pleading and relinquishing himself of all self-respect. During one argument, a distressed Bum cuts his own wrist.

As he bleeds out and loses consciousness, Sangwoo genuinely panics, begging Bum to survive and apologising for upsetting him. This scene serves to show that despite his impressive physique and constant cold behaviour, Sangwoo is just as weak as Bum, just as needy, just as mentally unwell. Throughout their relationship, Sangwoo conducts several abductions and he murders his victims in the basement.

At times, Bum is coerced to participate, which traps him as an accomplice and removes any hope or comfort he would feel towards the police. Bum develops a deep mistrust of law enforcement not only because of his own participation in the murders, but because, were they to ever discover the crimes, Sangwoo would be arrested and their relationship would end.
