### Summary
The current chapter has ignited an intense reader debate surrounding the Baek siblings, prompted by flashbacks that recontextualize their shared abusive past. A significant portion of the audience now empathizes with Inha, arguing her current destructive behavior is a direct result of severe trauma. They highlight flashbacks where their aunt favored the talented Inho while physically abusing Inha, and crucially, they condemn a younger Inho for witnessing this abuse and turning away, refusing to escape with her, and constantly belittling her artistic aspirations. This perspective posits that Inha’s aggression is a defense mechanism developed from a life devoid of care or validation. Conversely, another faction defends Inho, acknowledging the shared trauma but asserting it does not excuse Inha's present-day violence and refusal to work. This group views Inho as the more empathetic sibling who, despite his arrogance, is attempting to rebuild his life, while Inha remains a lazy "freeloader." They argue that a difficult past is a reason for her behavior, not an excuse. This polarizing discussion, which also draws parallels between Inha and Seol as neglected older sisters and questions the double standard in forgiving Jung but not Inha, underscores the series' strength in creating psychologically complex characters shaped by their environment.
