### Summary
The fragile new relationship between Hong Seol and Yoo Jung is immediately under threat as old antagonists resurface. The campus manipulator Youngon Oh has initiated a plot against Seol, attempting to recruit the volatile and self-serving Inha Baek as an accomplice. His scheme backfired spectacularly in a darkly comedic confrontation where Inha’s unpredictable and hot-tempered nature overwhelmed him, forcefully putting him in his place. Despite this initial rejection, Inha’s established dependency on others for financial support and her chaotic disposition position her as a dangerous new variable in the conflict. There is significant speculation that she may still collaborate with Youngon, adding to the immense psychological pressure on Seol. This escalating tension is palpable, with a sense that a "bomb's about to explode." The core conflict is compounded by the existing power dynamics, as the hardworking Seol must secure scholarships and remain financially independent from the wealthy yet unsupportive Jung, whose true nature as either a protector or a puppet master remains the central question.
