### Summary
Following Siwoo's proposal for them to move in together, the narrative focuses on Jiyoon's internal conflict, which has reignited audience frustration with her character. Reader commentary reveals a significant contradiction in Jiyoon's behavior: despite having previously told Siwoo she did not want to get married, she is now upset that his offer is for cohabitation rather than a marriage proposal. This inconsistency has led to widespread criticism from the readership, who label her as immature, selfish, and a poor communicator who is "all over the place." This reaction builds directly upon the lingering dissatisfaction from the couple's previous, poorly resolved conflict over Siwoo's past divorce, with readers once again siding with the patient Siwoo. The audience perceives this as a recurring pattern of frustrating behavior, solidifying Jiyoon's role as the source of the couple's drama. While a few readers offer cultural justifications for her hesitation about moving in before marriage, the overwhelming sentiment is that Jiyoon is unfairly punishing Siwoo for her own insecurities and inability to communicate her desires clearly.
