### Summary
The aftermath of Baek Myeongdo's encounter with another man culminates in a deeply painful and emotionally charged chapter. The central event is a sexual encounter between Myeongdo and Chung Oak, but the usual passion is replaced by overwhelming sadness and tension, with readers describing it as a "fountain of sadness." Devastated by what he perceives as a betrayal, Oak channels his hurt into their intimacy, treating Myeongdo with a coldness that mirrors their very first meeting. This retaliatory act is contentious among readers; while many feel Myeongdo deserved this "karma" to force an emotional awakening, others are deeply concerned, labeling the scene as dub-con or non-consensual as Oak reportedly ignores Myeongdo's requests. The encounter leaves Myeongdo feeling anxious and "empty inside," confused by Oak's uncharacteristic behavior and his subsequent abandonment in bed. Readers are left heartbroken by the angst, viewing this painful role reversal as a brutal but necessary turning point that will shatter Myeongdo's emotional immaturity and potentially initiate a "chasing arc" where he must finally confront the consequences of his actions and his suppressed feelings for Oak.
