### Summary
The fallout from Choi Siyeol's manipulative scheme intensifies as he endures a period of intense suffering, a development overwhelmingly celebrated by the readership. Following Na Aejoon's painful rejection, where he weaponized his past fandom to inflict emotional damage, Siyeol is now portrayed as desperate and regretful. However, his misery is met with widespread schadenfreude rather than sympathy. Readers frequently compare him to the "boy who cried wolf," arguing that his history of deception has destroyed his credibility, making it impossible for Aejoon to believe any current expressions of remorse. This credibility gap is worsened by Siyeol's failure to communicate effectively; he internalizes his regret but fails to articulate it, frustrating readers who believe he is sabotaging his own chance at redemption. While a small minority expresses pity for Siyeol's plight, the dominant consensus is that his suffering is a just and satisfying consequence of his actions. Aejoon is widely praised for standing his ground, and the audience is demanding a prolonged "grovel arc," insisting that Siyeol's suffering must continue for several more chapters before any forgiveness is earned.
