### Summary
Reader sentiment is dominated by overwhelming sympathy for Jo Seong-jae, who is viewed as a "poor baby" and "cinnamon roll" in desperate need of protection from his ongoing supernatural assault. Concurrently, significant anger and blame are directed at Hong Dohui, who is identified as the root cause of the crisis due to his "crazy and selfish" initial decision to send a ghost to Seong-jae. While readers acknowledge a deep, mutual love between the two, they are frustrated by the lack of communication and demand Dohui confess his role and fix the mess he created. There is some confusion among the audience regarding the antagonist, with debate over whether the current "grotesque" and violent ghost is the same as the original spirit that mimicked Dohui, or a more powerful entity summoned by the first. This new spirit's ability to physically overpower Dohui has been noted with concern. Despite frustrations with the characters' lack of direct conversation about the horrific events, the manga's art is consistently praised as "stunning." The prevailing mood is a mixture of heartbreak over Seong-jae's suffering, a desire for retribution against the ghostly assailant, and a desperate hope for the couple's eventual happiness.
