### Summary
The narrative has pivoted to a deeply emotional exploration of Gari's tragic backstory, revealing his present actions are driven by a past trauma involving the original Hwaya and Hwi. His devotion to a woman who became a catatonic "shell" after her lover's sacrifice now fuels his desperate attempt to prevent Jaerin and Ahn from repeating the same fate. This revelation has ignited intense "Second Male Lead Syndrome" among readers, who are devastated by his suffering and unrequited love that appears to transcend lifetimes. However, this wave of sympathy is complicated by a morally ambiguous and controversial event from his past—a "sickening" act contemplated or attempted on the comatose woman—which has created a sharp divide in fan opinion, with some finding his desperation unforgivable. The immense emotional weight of Gari's history has profoundly intensified the central love triangle, leading many readers to abandon a traditional outcome and instead advocate for a reverse harem or polyamorous relationship, unable to choose between the two male leads. While a minority of readers remain indifferent to this plot twist, focusing solely on the main couple's escape, the story is currently defined by this devastating character history, which has recontextualized past events and left the romantic dynamics more emotionally charged and uncertain than ever.
