### Summary
The complex romantic dynamic between Dohee and Joonwon continues to be a central point of contention, with reader opinion on Joonwon remaining sharply divided. Despite his recent supportive actions, many readers label him a hypocrite for actively flirting with Dohee while verbally rejecting the idea of love. His failure to apologize for past humiliations fuels skepticism, with some viewing his character development as a manipulative tactic rather than a genuine change. However, other readers find his contradictory and clumsy approach to romance relatable and human. In contrast, Dohee is celebrated as a principled and cool-headed "girl's girl" and a feminist icon. Her character is further fleshed out through her passion for watches—an interest readers find ironic given her time-looping ability—and her strong philosophical stances against figures like Aristotle and Rousseau. The current chapter appears to highlight these traits, with Dohee possibly trading her time for a limited-edition watch. This reinforces the core conflict: Dohee's unwavering self-possession against Joonwon's confusing and inconsistent behavior, leaving readers to question his true motives.
