### Summary
Following a lighthearted defusal of tension surrounding Han's controlling behavior, this chapter continues to pivot from external conflict toward supportive character dynamics, focusing on the pivotal role of Han's grandfather. Reader commentary overwhelmingly celebrates him as a standout character who subverts the cliché of the disapproving relative. Instead of an obstacle, he is portrayed as an enthusiastic "wingman" and "cupid," actively orchestrating the couple's success with humorous teasing and supportive date-planning, earning widespread praise as a new standard for parental figures in the genre. This warm, external validation starkly contrasts with the chapter's core emotional conflict, which now centers on Shinwoo's internal struggles. Readers perceive him as grappling with deep-seated self-doubt and potential "survivor's guilt," expressing a strong desire for him to embrace his newfound happiness and "take the lead" in the relationship. Overall, the chapter is received as a phenomenal and heartwarming development, with fans championing the grandfather's role in fostering the central romance amidst Shinwoo's ongoing journey of healing.
