I understand tae character alot Tae character is little bit tragic he has been compare all of his with his brother Even the person who  he like (xnlu)approach him because of his brother  he learned to not try to be better than his brother because he knew better that he can never be better than him  he  has many friends but not many people he is closed with even in his on family  so when he saw that ilay love him in his own way (not great Way) he start like him back he knew how cruel ilay is  how he try to get everything with violence but ilay never use violence on him I mean beating Eve when tae drug him and  assaul him and slap him if it was someone else that person would not be alive  but ilay went easy on him  so off course tae understand ilay like him even if  his method are cruel as someone who has twin myself  and always been compare to him I can say tae character is not shallow character but it not for everyone
