### Summary
The current chapter escalates the narrative by confirming the violent aftermath of past speculation while introducing a terrifying new threat. Yura Hwang's abusive ex-boyfriend, Jeong-u, confronts her in a "creepy" and "stalker-like" home invasion, leaving readers genuinely fearing for her physical safety. This event serves as a powerful showcase for Yura's character development; instead of freezing, she demonstrates significant agency by arming herself and preparing to call the police, a proactive response that readers lauded as a refreshing and realistic departure from passive victim tropes. The chapter simultaneously provides a cathartic reveal, confirming that Kang Seunghyeon's previously seen bruised hand was indeed the result of a physical altercation with Jeong-u. Readers celebrated Jeong-u's appearance as a "beaten up punching bag," viewing Seunghyeon's violent retribution as a justified and protective act that reinforces his "green flag" status. The confrontation solidifies Jeong-u as a dangerous and obsessive antagonist, with the audience now calling for legal action like a restraining order to ensure Yura's safety from his escalating behavior.
