I think the actor is suitable since he's suppose to be a bit introvert and feminine in appearance because of they say he looks like her mom, right? Genetic i feel the guys tend to look like their moms. Living in island and traveling alone for far too long without contacts with friends and families, everything is too much for zwj to handle. It's like he hit the jackpot after suffering so long. Revere karma? Martial art, power, respect, and women. Lets talk about the girls. YL had a crush that ended adruptly and tends to fancy him one sided with unhealthy amount of obsession unknown that he's her cousin. I guess living too long as a maid to grannie is hard. 00 version supported this when she didnt have the same feeling for zwj, but execution isn't done very well. She's just lonely and wanted someone around her age as companion. In psychological stand point, I've known people still have feelings for "exes" but not necessarily love them, but becayse their relationship ended without closure or receive any 1up the other. ZM is the exotic and open girl that zwj can't "resist" since her extrovert personality compensate zwj pretty well. She also sacrifice a lot for him including family, death, and her whole race/kingdom. Meanwhile, XZ is like the extra little innocent sister that's always there that he takes for granted until she's time to be gone, then he realize his mistake. He under appreciate her and regretted it, but it's not love. She love him, but he didnt. He oweher her future since shell worst than a widow because shell a lonely virgin surround by religious people that "worship" her in a holy goddess i suppose. She volunteer to do a lot of small things for him like a puppy and it adds up too. Zzr and zm are the conflicted two that he truly did love in my opinion in this series. Zzr lost her dad because of him, give him motivation to live, and he still remembers her all these years romantically even after she stabbed him. This adaption undermine Z9Z, the wolves's owner since zwj never fancies her in order to make sure audience know he only love zzr back then as a teen. However, his heart change after flirting with zm, but he is obligated to marry zzr because of his godfather.
