This chapter shifts focus to a deeply disturbing flashback, revealing the traumatic origins of Taehwan's toxic personality. The narrative explores his past experiences with severe bullying, which included enduring racism, at the hands of cruel classmates. The situation escalates dramatically when a trusted, red-haired friend, whom readers identify as Ronn, betrays Taehwan out of jealousy. This act of betrayal leads Taehwan directly from the "frying pan into the fire," delivering him into the hands of a predatory adult figure, seemingly a teacher, whose actions are described as sickening and perverted. The events depicted have elicited visceral reactions of nausea, disgust, and anger from readers, who now express profound sympathy for Taehwan.
