### Summary
A stunning new perspective has completely upended the narrative, revealing that Taewon's past cruelty was a desperate, self-sacrificial ploy to make Yusung hate him, thereby freeing him from the clutches of the now-exposed true villain, executive Mr. Kim. This revelation has sent shockwaves through the readership, causing a dramatic schism; while many fans are now tearfully switching allegiances and embracing Taewon's tragic redemption arc, a vocal contingent remains unconvinced, criticizing the "he was a jerk because he cared" trope and reaffirming their support for rivals like Sinwoo. The shipping war has descended into beautiful chaos, with the central conflict now reframed as a tragic misunderstanding, leaving readers emotionally whipsawed and more divided than ever on who deserves Yusung's heart.
