### Summary
The current Summer Arc shifts the manhwa's tone from the wholesome romance of the Spring Arc to a deeply poignant exploration of grief, focusing on Jaemin Lee's struggle after the death of his older brother, Hamin. Having suppressed his own sorrow to support his mother, Jaemin now feels isolated and abandoned as she attempts to move on, leaving him to grapple with his unprocessed trauma alone. This emotional weight is palpable to readers, who find the narrative overwhelmingly heavy and heartbreaking, expressing concern that Jaemin might follow his brother's tragic path due to the immense pressure he faces. His inability to confide in his family or friends leaves Somang Han as his only potential confidante, as she was the only one who also knew Hamin. Reader comments highlight the stark contrast with the first season's couple, Bomi Yun and Jinyeong Choi, and express apprehension about a continuous string of tragedies. The chapter also subtly foreshadows future storylines, with readers identifying a bullied boy who previously interacted with Hamin as a potential focus for a subsequent arc, and noting the presence of Gaeul, Somang's best friend and the main character of the upcoming Fall arc. The emotional intensity of Jaemin's story is so profound that many readers report feeling suffocated and needing to take breaks from the heavy material.
