### Summary
The highly anticipated confrontation between Han Juwon and Jeong-min devolves into a communication catastrophe, deepening the existing rift. Driven by insecurity, Juwon directly questions the foundation of their relationship, asking why Jeong-min is with him. Jeong-min’s responses are devastatingly literal and devoid of the emotional reassurance Juwon craves; to the question of why they are dating, he simply replies, "Because you confessed to me." He fails to verbally confirm any reciprocal feelings, even when Juwon explicitly states he believed Jeong-min felt the same way. From Juwon's perspective, these answers confirm his worst fears: that the relationship is a one-sided affair born of pity rather than mutual affection. Overwhelmed and heartbroken, Juwon breaks down in tears, cutting the conversation short and telling Jeong-min to leave him alone. Jeong-min remains stoic and unreadable throughout, attempting to substitute physical intimacy for verbal communication, a gesture that fails to bridge the emotional chasm. The chapter ends on a painful cliffhanger, with Juwon's emotional breakdown shattering their fragile connection and leaving their relationship in ruins.
