### Summary
Following Joonwon's controversial confession, which was dually motivated by his feelings and the need to secure an inheritance, the central relationship has advanced into a tentative, "official (kinda)" trial phase. This development in the slow-burn romance is marked by the couple's attempt to communicate more honestly and formally label their connection, a move readers hope will prevent future misunderstandings. While Joonwon has shifted into a "proactive" boyfriend role, Dohee's handling of their new status is perceived by some as "childish," highlighting how both characters, products of traumatic family backgrounds, are inexperienced with the concept of love. Despite this progress, audience skepticism persists, with some readers viewing Joonwon's accelerated suggestions to "move in" as red flags and questioning whether his actions are genuine or a self-serving ploy tied to his inheritance. This fragile new intimacy continues the series' core "push and pull" dynamic, as the couple navigates their feelings amidst lingering external threats from antagonists like Yuna and the heartbroken Mr. Kang.
