### Summary
Reader focus has shifted to the diverging paths of early characters Jay and Ryu Baeksan, further cementing the fan theory of protagonist Yu as the story's "final boss." Following Ryu's recent reappearance, commentary highlights a clear split in their destinies, rooted in their intrinsic character. Jay is championed as a heroic figure whose strength comes from his "heart," embarking on a professional boxing career that fans believe will lead him to a future confrontation with Yu. This potential reunion is viewed as a pivotal moment, with readers hoping Jay will be the catalyst for Yu's emotional development. Conversely, Ryu is seen as having descended into a "gangster path," his physical strength undermined by a flawed character. This dynamic reinforces the overarching narrative where various determined fighters are positioned as the true protagonists on a journey to overcome the inhumanly talented and apathetic Yu, with Jay now emerging as a primary candidate for this role.
