Is this an actual reason kids wanted to travel around the world with Cale??? Is this the culprit??
Because if that's so this is fucking adorable
When i first read the novel and in the future chapters On, Hong and Raon were telling Cale that they want to travel everywhere together i just went "Aw that's sweet, yeah sure" not questioning much of it because, well, Cale didn't either. And I'm a very trustful person, who didn't thought about our narrator being a lying little shit back then.
So rereading the novel now and seeing this gives me literal butterflies!
Just think about it.
Children, who never saw much of the world, whose thoughts before been only about survival, wanted to travel everywhere together and see everything, but not for themselves.
They thought that will make Cale happy.
On, Hong and Raon obviously love Cale a lot, he is literally their parent and the first ever person to show them warmth or care.
So it is understandable that they want to show this love to him in return and I'm like :,) MAN, i love this story so much ueue
