### Summary
The analysis continues to center on the "scorny" (scared-horny) dynamic between Jo Seong-jae and the ghostly entity that resembles his crush, Hong Dohui. While Seong-jae's health deteriorates from these nightly encounters, reader attention has now sharply focused on Dohui's own alarming appearance in the waking world. A significant number of comments highlight his extreme paleness, noting that he looks even more lifeless and "sucked of life" than Seong-jae, the supposed victim. This observation has intensified speculation, with readers theorizing that Dohui is not an ordinary human but a ghost, vampire, or undead being. Many question if he is secretly the entity tormenting Seong-jae, perhaps through sorcery, or if he is a fellow victim suffering from the same night terrors. The visual parallel between the pale, waking Dohui and the ghostly figure has become the central mystery, leading to widespread confusion about his true nature and his role in the supernatural events. Despite the frightening and unsettling plot, the art continues to receive praise for its exquisite quality, effectively drawing readers into the paranormal mystery.
