The author posted a spoiler of a future chapter:
https://twitter.com/ByeonDuck_/status/1222906750631759872
In this image Nakyum looks surprised and it seems he's talking with someone, maybe with Mr. Kim. It could be Seungho but this image isn't colored, so we don't if the painter is surprised and afraid. (The author uses shades of purple to show emotions like fear and anger).
Another thing I notice is that Nakyum is wearing a robe. So either he's using another robe of Seungho or Seungho bought him refined clothes.
They even didn't translate the Q&A :(
Yeah, whats up with that?? ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ
So disappointed ┗( T﹏T )┛
That is soooo lazy. Lezhin probably think its not worth paying translator for a Q&A. That just kind of show how much they value their artists worth. (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
i mean kind of hypocritical of us to be like this considering we're reading manhwa off a free site and basically insinuating that these artists arent worth our money but ok
It's not that they arent "worth our money" its just that some people dont have the money to buy the chapters straight off of lezhin. If i could i would but i am poor so i cant.
Spoilers

Basically, they had sex in front of a mirror an it seems next chapter is going to be a continuation of it.
I wish I knew korean so I could understand the Q&A. Probably, Lezhin is going to translate it instead of chap 29 on next Wednesday
Do you know what is the biggest tragedy that could happen to this story?
The author losing interest and ending the story in a rushed and illogical way. I think this is my biggest fear/worry because I'd seen it happen so many times to other stories (BL and non-BL).
I don't care if they end up together or some character has to die, as long its believable and satisfactory,it's enough for me.
Things we know so far:
-He's the firstborn son of the Yoon familly.
-Since his grandfather has passed away, no one of his family has took a government post.
-His family's power and influence is declining.
-He seems to have some trouble sleeping.
-He's been deeply hurt in the past that now he's very unstable and has violent mood swings.
-His whole family left him alone and took the servants.
-Mr. Kim is the only who knows his past.
-Has an extreme obsession with sex.
-Used to need help to get it up (wonder why)
-He's well known in the region as a sodomite.
-He's highly educated but lacks emotional intelligence that he can't differentiate jealousy from anger.
-Very intelligent and observant.
-Currently, developing feelings/obsession for Nakyum.
Questions/Speculations
-Why Seungho and his father didn't follow the steps of his grandfather? I read that in those times nobles would prepare themselves to aspire a high post in the government. Seugnho has more opportunities than Inhun, he's more prepared and most importantly, he has a name of power and influence. So why hasn't he tried to get one? Also, why hasn't he married yet? People married quite young in those times.
-Seungho looks like in his mid-twenties to me and Mr. Kim has worked for him since a decade, so probably he met the master when he was an teenager. So I think something happen in his adolescence that transformed him from a regular noble to a depraved and violent one.
-How old was Seungho when his family left him alone? It seems that it has passed some years since that happened, so if they left him when was young, no wonder why he turned so unstable. Sometimes when I'm reading this, he reminds me of child throwing tantrums or an angsty teen. I think he developed his sex's obsession after being abandoned, maybe his trying to fill a void with that. After all, in the Joseon era, the family played a huge role.
-Finally, did Mr. Kim chose to stay with Seugnho or it was his obligation? Does the master trust him enough that he hasn't change of servant?

Man, I really love this series, I can't wait to learn more things about the lord's past. I think the servant is going to play a huge part on the future.
P.D. English isn't my native language, so forgive me if I have some errors.
your amazing, thanks for this!
Thank you ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
Agreed on so many levels
Tbh, I feel like there two possible outcomes:
1. Nakyum would act just like in chapter 11-12 where he takes silently the "punishment" and abuse, and we would have to expect another character like Jihwa or Min to come in and reveal the truth to Seungho.
I really hope the author doesn't follow this path, because not only we would have to wait until the truth is exposed, we would have to deal with more misundestandings. Also the problem that Seungho, even though he harbors feelings for Nakyum, doesn't really trust him wouldn't be fix.
He claims he loves him, but has to listen to other people in other to believe him.
2. The other possibility I see, is that Nakyum will call out Seungho on his bullshit, just like he did in chap 25-26. Nakyum can really have a sharp tongue when he wants to, but unfortunately he seems to use it only when he feels really distressed or upset. He could point that even though Seungho told him that he longs for him, he doesn't doubt a second to hurt him or never believes him, who knows.
Right now, Seungho is really pissed and letting his emotions to control him making him impulsive and irrational, so next chapter I feel it will be Nakyum's spotlight and depending on how reacts, will see if the story is progressing forward or backwards.
These two don't really know how to communicate, the only way they speak what it's in their mind is when they're under the influence of something like their emotions, drugs, etc.
The line "We are just two naked bodies. There is no need for us to share what's on our minds." really speaks out what the main problem between them.
Second option looks rather impossible with NK's current state of mind?
And miscommunication is one of the problems but imo the bigger one are Seungho's calloused, ruthless and violent actions.
Him not controling his emotions, getting mad and harmful.
It can't go on like that.
violent actions/tendencies*
These are the scenarios I could come up at the moment, so I don't know, in the end we have to wait until next friday.
I just really want to see Nakyum having a character development and know more about his past and why he can't return with his noonas, this season is more focused on Seungho.
About Seungho, I doubt he would change so drastically, let's be real, the guy needs a therapist not a lover. I can't really see this manhwa ending with a happy ending, at most it would end with a bittersweet one.
Well, there is a third possible outcome..
So far the author has in season 1 always had the worst scenario happen after each cliffhanger, but in this one it seems to be the least bad scenario that takes place (which I actually like as it just makes the plot more unpredictable, as our expectations are based on season 1)..
SH is furious right now, and we expect him to hurt NK in the next chapter, but he may just realise that he cannot do it, as his love is stronger than his anger? Or he may realise that he is about to become like his father? or he may find more bruises on NKs body etc..
