### Summary
This chapter's revelation of Hajun's perspective has created a "bittersweet" and angst-filled reading experience, shifting the narrative focus to impending heartbreak. Contrary to last chapter's speculation that Hajun was aware of the deception, comments now overwhelmingly portray him as a sweet, lonely, and unsuspecting individual who is genuinely developing feelings for Shihyeon. This dramatic irony has filled the readership with a sense of dread, with countless comments anticipating the "painful" and "heartbreaking" moment Hajun will discover the truth about Shihyeon's mission. A significant secondary discussion revolves around Hajun's pre-existing feelings for another "blonde guy," identified by some as Yunjae, leading to theories that Shihyeon was initially pursued as a substitute. While the emotional drama dominates, some readers continue to critique the unrealistic depiction of the previous chapter's intimate scene, specifically the continued lack of proper preparation and lubricant. Minor continuity questions, such as how a shirt was removed while in handcuffs, also persist, though often as a point of humor. Ultimately, the community is united in the belief that both protagonists are falling for each other and are on a collision course for emotional devastation.
