### Summary
Following the consummation of their relationship, the central conflict has shifted to the public and personal fallout, causing a significant realignment in reader perception. Yahyul’s uncommunicative and impulsive actions are increasingly viewed not as enigmatic, but as disrespectful and manipulative, with readers noting he is jeopardizing Sahwahyun's career and reputation. This has led to a notable decline in his popularity, with some fans now expressing outright dislike for him. Conversely, Godo, previously an antagonist, is being recast as a sympathetic and "great friend" whose protective intervention is seen as justified. His surprisingly swift acceptance of the relationship has garnered him support, with some readers developing "second lead syndrome" and siding with his concern for Sahwahyun. This complex shift has left the audience divided; while some still find the romantic developments beautiful, many are growing frustrated with Yahyul's behavior, feeling that he is failing to treat his partner with the respect he deserves and creating a critical tension in the central romance.
