### Summary
The chapter immediately escalates into a new conflict centered on a comically tragic separation. Wooyoung's father intervenes, forcibly removing his son from Kyungju with the intent of sending him abroad to study and learn responsibility. This dramatic farewell, likely staged at an airport, is executed with such over-the-top melodrama that it evokes more laughter and secondhand embarrassment from readers than genuine sadness. The scene is repeatedly compared to "Romeo and Juliet," with a desperate Kyungju making grand romantic declarations like promising to buy Wooyoung "a whole garden" as he is physically dragged away. The emotional weight of the separation is deliberately undercut by humor, a point driven home by the chapter's final panel, which reveals onlookers questioning if they are "filming a drama." This punchline solidifies the scene's absurd tone, leaving readers caught between tears and laughter. While some fans acknowledged the father's logic in wanting his spoiled son to mature, the overwhelming response was amusement at the chaotic and theatrical spectacle, perfectly aligning with the manga's established blend of angst and comedy.
