### Summary
Continuing the high school alternate universe (AU) side story, which is widely interpreted as Soohyun's dream, this chapter focuses on a lighthearted and comedic reversal of the main couple's intense dynamic. Eunsung is portrayed as an exceptionally clingy and affectionate "golden retriever" figure, relentlessly pursuing a perpetually annoyed "black cat" Soohyun with unhesitating hugs and overt admiration. Reader response has been overwhelmingly positive, celebrating the chapter's cute, wholesome tone and the frequent use of chibi art to emphasize the comedic interactions, such as Soohyun's intense glares in response to Eunsung's advances. While the fluffy dream sequence is a source of delight for many, it has also prompted a segment of the readership to express impatience to return to the main plot. This idealized scenario has highlighted a poignant detail from their established reality: despite their stable domestic partnership, the two have never officially confessed their love, adding a layer of bittersweetness to the dream's simple, affectionate world.
