Type has always been so adamant that Tharn doesn’t treat him like "a girl", but while listening to the story of Tharn’s lost love, he suddenly realizes that he wants a love song from Tharn, a manga-like romance and public confessions. #TharnTypeTheSeries #MewGulf

It makes him jealous and heartbroken that Tharn gave them to someone else. All the things he previously rejected when Tharn even suggested them, he wants them all. Type is sad and disappointed. He feels empty as if he's missing out on something that should have been his.
He suddenly realizes that Tharn might not love him as much as he loved his first love, which explain the fear, anger and immense hurt he feels after he sees Tharn meeting Tar in the bar and even lying about it right into his face.
Lhong's nasty manipulation reveals Type’s insecurities: that he isn’t enough for Tharn and can’t compare to his first love. It shatters Type’s heart that Tharn might not love him as much as he loved Tar. He couldn’t bear if he came second best,
if Tharn’s whole heart wouldn’t belong only to him because Type loves Tharn more than anyone: Tharn is his only love. Gulf is truly brilliant in this scene as he portrays the whole spectrum of turbulent emotions his character feels in this scene.
You can literally read Type’s thoughts here, it’s as if he were thinking: Tharn, you asshole, you haven’t written a song for me yet!”
Therefore it’s so poignant and fitting that at the very same moment, Tharn is writing a love song for him, smiling like a fool while constantly thinking about him.
He will later sing it in front of a whole bar. It’s symbolic that Tharn eventually gives Type everything he longs for even if Type never asks for any of those things because Tharn understands Type better than he understands himself and he could never deny him anything.
Lhong’s story about Tharn’s love feels like a foreshadowing that Tharn is going to give Type his everything, proving his love in every possible way and destroying all his insecurities with with his love, just as he destroyed all his fear any nightmares.
Type takes that love and treasures it and reciprocates it. He is literally basking in it, cherishing each Tharn’s love confession, even though he previously told him not to say it too often,
because Tharn’s love has become indispensable to him; it makes him breathe and feel alive like oxygen and sun. Lhong might have wanted to broke them up with his story and backstabbing plan but Type learned many lessons from them.
One of them being that he needs to cherish Tharn's love by giving his love back in return. The shy Tar plucked his courage and confessed but Type's been dragging his feet for so long that he almost lost his chance to tell Tharn he loved him.
If Lhong managed to kill him, Tharn would never learn how much Type loved him. That's one of the reasons why he tells Tharn so often after Lhong is gone. He doesn't want to regret that he wants to give Tharn all the love he deserves and doesn't want to regret anything.
