### Summary
The current chapter continues the controversial side story centered on Doyun's Alpha brother, Dojun, and his suitor, Doctor Jinyoung, solidifying the latter's role as a manipulative antagonist. Reader commentary overwhelmingly identifies the doctor as a sadistic "walking red flag" who is predatorily exploiting Dojun's emotional vulnerabilities. The core of the conflict is the perception that Jinyoung is treating Dojun's pain as a game, intentionally trying to make him cry for his own perverse pleasure. This dynamic has elicited a sharply polarized audience reaction. A significant majority of readers express profound dislike for the doctor, labeling him a "psycho," "predator," and "abusive trash," while growing fiercely protective of Dojun. The negative sentiment is so potent that many readers are vocal about skipping this side story, viewing the relationship as toxic and a disappointing departure from the main couple. In stark contrast, a vocal minority finds the doctor’s villainy perversely appealing, calling him "hot" and enjoying his "evil" and sadistic nature, even while acknowledging his dangerous character. This divisive reception has defined the arc, with the doctor's calculated cruelty establishing a contentious and toxic pairing.
