#Tang is the murderer (read: 'Killer') and Nan Gam is the embarrassing conundrum (read: 'Paradox')

They both have such cute names!

당 = Tang = Nickname for Sugar and used at the end of words to cute-ify them.

난감 = Nan Gam = Embarrassed. Impossible. Awkward. Because you're at a loss, in a sticky situation, or facing a conundrum, a paradox. His full name Jang Nan Gam means Toy, and can sometimes be slang for 'Are you playing with me?".

It's no wonder Detective Jang said he felt a kinship with Lee Tang because of their awkward names and that he became a cop so people would take him seriously.

These two are made for each other.

#perhaps more interesting is that the show is named after the two of them #Tang is the murderer (read: 'Killer') and Nan Gam is the embarrassing conundrum (read: 'Paradox') #it's like the show is begging me to ship them #everyone knows shows titled after their main characters are romances like kinnporsche or nightdream or big dragon 😅 #a killer paradox #kdrama #linguistics
