### Summary
The current chapter centers on the secondary couple, Taehwan and Yeonwu, delving into a pivotal jealousy arc that marks a significant turning point in their relationship. The conflict is ignited by Yeonwu, who experiences intense, possessive jealousy for the first time in response to Taehwan’s social interactions. Readers interpret this not as a regression, but as a crucial step in his character development; having been in a toxic dynamic where he felt he had no claim on Taehwan, Yeonwu is now finally allowing himself to acknowledge and express his feelings of ownership and insecurity. This emotional outburst is met with a changed Taehwan, who demonstrates considerable growth. Instead of his past behavior, he is now visibly afraid of repeating his mistakes and losing Yeonwu again. The chapter culminates in a moment of healthy communication, with Yeonwu confessing his feelings directly to Taehwan. While some readers find the jealousy unrelatable or unhealthy, many praise this development for its emotional complexity, contrasting it with the more destructive jealousy arcs seen previously. The consensus is that this confrontation, instigated by the catalyst character Emma, is forcing the couple to build a more honest and emotionally mature foundation.
