### Summary
Following a period of heartwarming domestic bliss that solidified the bond between Taehwan and Yeonwu, the narrative abruptly pivots to confront past trauma. The fragile peace is shattered by the re-emergence of "Mike," a character immediately identified by readers as Taehwan's childhood predator. His appearance, which readers correctly predicted was foreshadowed by the mention of a professor who had provided Yeonwu with a reference letter, triggers a severe traumatic response in Taehwan. He freezes in terror, with his reaction intensified by the presence of his partner, Yeonwu, whom he now perceives as being exposed to danger. This development provides a heartbreaking context for Taehwan's recently observed self-deprecating behavior and his aversion to his childhood photos. While readers express dread and anger at the antagonist's return, they also acknowledge the necessity of this storyline, which finally addresses Taehwan's unresolved trauma. With Yeonwu still unaware of this dark part of his partner's past, the couple is now facing a significant emotional crisis that will test their hard-won stability.
