### Summary
Reader sentiment has solidified into a near-unanimous demand for Da-im to break up with her boyfriend, Taebum. The conflict from the previous chapter continues to fuel audience outrage, with commenters dissecting Taebum's behavior as toxic, controlling, and manipulative. His attempts to change Da-im to make her "approved" by his social circle are heavily criticized, and his repeated dismissal of her feelings by telling her to "act like an adult" is identified as a form of gaslighting. Readers appreciate that the narrative explores the complexities of an unhealthy relationship based on control and differing values, rather than resorting to a simple cheating trope. Amidst the drama, new characters have captured positive attention; a character referred to as the "lil bro" is lauded as a cute and surprisingly insightful wingman, while a cat named Neronero provides moments of adorable relief. The community's adoration for the main love interest, On-gyum, continues to grow, positioning him as the perfect, caring alternative to the problematic Taebum. However, a growing sense of frustration is palpable, as some readers feel Da-im's continued tolerance of her boyfriend's disrespect is beginning to feel out of character for the "sassy" and independent woman she is portrayed to be.
