### Summary
Following Yoo Jung's manipulative "rescue" of Hong Seol, their fragile new romantic relationship is immediately put to the test. A significant rift forms as Jung becomes consumed by jealousy and hurt, triggered by the charismatic Inho Baek effortlessly blending in with Seol's family. This dynamic appears to strike a nerve with Jung, echoing his own lifelong struggle for paternal validation and making him feel overshadowed, much like Seol sometimes feels in relation to her brother, Joon. Instead of communicating, Jung reverts to his childish and inscrutable nature, ghosting Seol and retreating into what readers call his "man cave." This withdrawal leaves Seol confused and in pain, prompting frustration from readers who condemn his behavior and lack of apology for past manipulations, while a minority sympathize with his emotional state. Compounding the turmoil, an ongoing threat from a stalker persists, leaving Seol to face both external danger and the emotional fallout of her boyfriend's volatile insecurities.
