### Summary
The narrative continues its flashback arc, deepening the audience's emotional investment in Jiho's decade-long unrequited love for Siyoung during her relationship with her ex, Woojin. Reader response has fixated on subtle, symbolic acts of his devotion, particularly a scene where he intentionally gets his own shoulder wet to shield Siyoung with an umbrella. This moment is overwhelmingly interpreted as the definitive mark of a selfless, caring man, cementing his status as a "walking green flag" and the ideal partner. Readers express intense empathy for the pain of his long-term pining, viewing Siyoung as lucky but also endearingly blind to his feelings and her ex's flaws. Jiho's character is celebrated as "perfect," "whipped," and "down bad" for Siyoung, with many fans lamenting that such a devoted man only exists in fiction and celebrating that his patience was ultimately rewarded. While a minority view acknowledges that such long-term, unspoken feelings could be problematic in reality, the consensus within the readership is that Jiho’s journey is a beautiful and heart-wrenching testament to pure, patient love, making his current happiness with Siyoung feel all the more earned.
