### Summary
A significant revelation in the latest chapter finally explains the source of Jimin's animosity towards Se-i, resolving a long-standing mystery. It is now understood that Jimin believes Se-i stole a pivotal, once-in-a-lifetime acting role from him during their youth, an opportunity he saw as a chance to support his family. This event soured the "cute" childhood connection detailed in a previous flashback. Reader reaction is divided, with some validating his feelings as understandable for a teenager facing a major setback, while others find his sustained grudge to be an overreaction. The prevailing theory is that Se-i is innocent and was unaware of the situation, with many speculating that her mother's ex-boyfriend pulled strings to secure the role for her. This new information provides context for Jimin's behavior, which readers had previously diagnosed as an inferiority complex causing him to misinterpret kindness as pity. Despite the added sympathy for Jimin's backstory, many readers maintain their loyalty to the core romance between Se-i and Jaeha, citing Jaeha's unwavering support.
