### Summary
The fragile new romance between Hong Seol and Yoo Jung is immediately put to the test by the escalating, childish rivalry between Jung and Inho Baek. The central conflict erupts when Jung makes a loaded offer for Inho to go abroad, ostensibly for medical treatment for his career-ending hand injury. However, this gesture is widely interpreted as a selfishly motivated and petty attempt to remove Inho from Seol’s life. Inho’s pride and persistent victim mentality cause him to react negatively, further fueling the animosity between the two men. Caught in the middle of their immature shenanigans, Seol displays significant character development. No longer a passive victim of circumstance, she now actively questions Jung's motives and pushes back against his methods, demonstrating a new level of comfort and assertiveness in establishing her own boundaries. This confrontation shifts the focus to the health of their relationship, highlighting Seol's growth as she learns to navigate the complex motivations of a boyfriend who is both her protector and a manipulative rival.
