### Summary
Audience frustration with the central love triangle has reached a boiling point as the narrative continues to sideline the established male lead, Yuyeon Na, in favor of Bareum Jung’s interactions with her initial crush, Jaehyun Shin. The overwhelming sentiment in reader comments is anger over Yuyeon's absence, with many threatening to drop the series. This frustration is compounded by Jaehyun’s behavior; he is accused of sending blatant “mixed signals” despite having previously clarified to Yuyeon that he only sees Bareum as a “little sister.” This development prolongs the state of “frustrating stagnation” and deepens the sense of foreboding established in the previous chapter, with readers anticipating an imminent and painful rejection for the naive protagonist. While a minor side plot involving Hanam Park “making his move” is noted, the chapter’s focus on the awkward and seemingly doomed dynamic between Bareum and Jaehyun has undercut the manhwa’s lighthearted reputation, replacing it with sustained tension and audience dissatisfaction.
