### Summary
In the wake of Jeongheon's romantic ultimatum, Dabi's actions in the current chapter have drawn overwhelming condemnation from readers. The central conflict arises when Dabi encourages Jeongheon to go on a date with another woman, a researcher, a suggestion viewed as incredibly cruel and dismissive. This comment is seen as a toxic game, especially given their physical intimacy and Jeongheon's openly confessed feelings. Readers are intensely frustrated, labeling Dabi an "asshole" and a "bitch" who is carelessly hurting a sincere and devoted partner. While her past trauma is acknowledged as a source of her commitment issues, the audience's sympathy has waned, with many now believing she is unfairly stringing Jeongheon along. The consensus is that Jeongheon, often called a "precious" and "perfect" partner, deserves better. Fans speculate that Dabi is either testing him or being thoughtless, but either way, they predict she will be heartbroken if he actually takes her advice and finds someone else. The chapter marks a significant downturn in reader perception of Dabi, casting her as the primary obstacle in the relationship.
