A significant source of conflict is introduced for Dohee through her mother, who is revealed to be emotionally manipulative and financially demanding via text message, creating a stark contrast to memories of a loving childhood and dispelling rumors of Dohee's prestigious origins. This familial strife is set to be compounded by the antagonist, Yuna, who is now identified as Dohee's former bully, a celebrity, and Joonwon's ex-fiancée. Reader commentary also revisits Joonwon's own tragic past, speculating that his time-looping ability may have forced him to repeatedly witness his mother's death in a fire. Despite the mounting external pressures and anticipated drama, the central relationship continues to develop. Joonwon is increasingly seen as a vital pillar of support for Dohee, with his gestures of professional trust being highlighted as a key way he is earning her affection. Readers are confident that while their relationship is unconventional, Joonwon's strength will ensure Dohee does not have to face these impending challenges alone.
