### Summary
The central conflict has escalated into a direct confrontation, cementing the manga's turn towards serious drama. Eonyeong, driven by insecurity, tearfully confesses his frustrations to Mokrin, citing her failure to firmly reject his rival's advances, her refusal to wear the garments of his tribe, and a general lack of intimacy in their two-month marriage. Instead of addressing his concerns or clearing up the multiple misunderstandings, Mokrin's response is to dismissively tell him to "think what you want" before walking away. This action has drawn intense criticism from readers, who overwhelmingly side with Eonyeong and condemn Mokrin's behavior as immature and infuriating. The audience's primary frustration is with the female lead's complete failure to communicate, especially when her husband is actively trying to resolve their issues. Her internal thoughts of "if only you knew" only serve to heighten reader anger, as she simultaneously suspects Eonyeong regarding missing letters while refusing to be open with him. This pivotal moment has pushed the couple's relationship to a breaking point, with readers decrying Mokrin as a "horrible partner" who is actively sabotaging her own marriage.
