### Summary
Following the violent collapse of the toxic triad, Woo Hyung's psychological state has deteriorated into a complete public breakdown. Overwhelmed by vivid flashbacks of the rape committed by his brother-in-law, Neyeol, Hyung suffers a terrifying hallucination in what appears to be a club. He seemingly mistakes an unidentified partner—speculated by readers to be either Sujo or Boguk—for his attacker, creating a scene of intense confusion and distress. This event is the direct consequence of his long-standing refusal to seek professional therapy, instead outsourcing his recovery to a dysfunctional and codependent relationship that recently shattered into open conflict. As his self-destructive, hypersexual coping mechanisms have already eroded reader sympathy, this chapter marks a new low point, with Hyung completely consumed by his trauma. The ambiguity of his companion's identity during this episode only heightens the sense of chaos, confirming that his makeshift support system has utterly failed and pushed him beyond his limits into a state of total psychological collapse.
