Some of volume 13 omakes (courtesy of LoN00 for the scans). The title “If that man was a complete stranger” reminds of the amazarashi song released recently called “Tarareba”, but I don’t know if that’s just a coincidence or not.
Also sorry for the terrible cleaning, my typesetter is busy, I might get them redone later…
Sangwoo’s mother’s body was never found, given that he loved her so much, how attached he was to her, I can see him keeping the body. People have pointed out Sangwoo’s similarity to Norman Bates from the horror film Psycho, a serial killer obsessed with his mother. In Psycho, Bates hides his mother mummified corpse in the fruit cellar. And we know Sangwoo is handy with construction projects, like when he built the hook for Bum.
He looks at the wall in that panel only after he hallucinates his mother as Bum like he’s making sure whatever’s there hasn’t moved. It would explain why he’s afraid of being in that room, he’s afraid of his mother and he’s afraid of being confronted with what he did to her.

Momwoo was in the living room the whole time. That’s why Bum isn’t allowed in there.
