### Summary
The relationship between Baek Myeongdo and Chung Oak has plunged into deeper turmoil following a significant misunderstanding. Still reeling from witnessing an ambiguous scene involving Oak, Myeongdo's insecurities have been fully triggered, causing him to emotionally withdraw. The angst is compounded by the sudden introduction of a new, unidentified third party, a development met with widespread dread and frustration by readers who feel it is too late in the story for such a conflict. Fan speculation, fueled by the re-emergence of a note from Myeongdo's past anonymous encounters, points toward a catastrophic scenario. The prevailing theory is that Myeongdo, reverting to his old coping mechanisms, will use his blindfold to wait for Oak, only for this new character to arrive in his place. This sets the stage for a potential mistaken-identity encounter that threatens to shatter the couple's fragile reconciliation. The development serves as a painful form of karmic justice, forcing Myeongdo to confront the consequences of his past betrayals just as the series approaches its conclusion, leaving the relationship's future hanging by a thread.
