## Chapter
- number: 45
- release_date: 2025-03-05

### Summary
The introduction of a new character, an actor, serves as the chapter's primary catalyst for drama, positioning him as a rival for Shim Cheongsun's attention. Reader reception to this new figure is overwhelmingly negative, with comments highlighting his perceived unattractiveness and foolish demeanor, suggesting an intentional artistic choice to ensure he poses no genuine threat to the central romance. The narrative focus is squarely on Gonghyun's reaction, which is characterized by immediate and overt jealousy. His mood shifts dramatically as he sizes up the "competition," leading him to possessively "stake his claim" on Cheongsun. This act of dominance is amplified by his use of his CEO status to intimidate the actor, a move that reinforces the toxic power dynamic established in previous arcs. While some readers find this persistent, assertive pursuit a beautiful element of the love story, it also underscores Gonghyun's controlling nature. The chapter also reintroduces a "flash disk" that causes anxiety among readers and includes a scene where a character named Wonchae provides advice on love.
