## Chapter

### Summary
The narrative has intensified around an external threat, with a female antagonist provoking the main couple and prompting readers to demand that Dohee and Joonwon unite against her. Despite this, the core conflict remains internal, centered on Joonwon's inability to process and label his feelings as "love." Audience perception is that his affection for Dohee is genuine, but his childhood trauma has created a psychological barrier to the word itself, making this the primary obstacle to their relationship. This focus overshadows Dohee's own emotional reticence and the now-ineffective love triangle with the second male lead, Eeyon, whom readers have dismissed. Fan speculation continues to build around Joonwon's vulnerability, with theories persisting that he suffers from a chronic illness tied to his mother's traumatic death. Readers have also noted shifts in the art style and commented on the uncanny resemblance between Dohee and Joonwon's mother in flashbacks.
