### Summary
Reader speculation has been validated by a shocking reveal, seemingly from Hong Dohui himself, which has led to the widespread conclusion that he is not human. The catalyst for this confirmation appears to be a line of dialogue where Dohui states that he "looks human," a phrase that has ignited a storm of reactions from readers who are now convinced of his supernatural nature. This development reinforces theories from the previous chapter, which highlighted his deathly pale appearance and a dog's fearful reaction to him as evidence of his otherworldliness. Audience theories are now running rampant, with many suggesting he could be a zombie, a ghost, or another type of undead entity. Amidst the supernatural confusion, the romantic plot remains a key point of engagement. Readers are acutely aware of the mutual affection between Dohui and Jo Seong-jae, lamenting the "misunderstanding" and fear that keeps the two from confessing their feelings. The chapter's cliffhanger has left the audience in a state of intense curiosity and excitement, fully invested in both the central mystery of Dohui's identity and the progression of his relationship with Seong-jae.
