### Summary
The current chapter pivots from romance to a mix of comedic frankness and tragic backstory. A conversation between Soohee and her friend Izzy becomes the central focus, as Soohee innocently asks if her consistent sexual satisfaction, or reaching "paradise," is "normal." This question prompts a wave of relatable and humorous frustration from both Izzy and the readers, with Izzy's final, exasperated "Bxtch" becoming a highlight. The consensus is that Soohee has "hit the jackpot" with a skilled and considerate partner, a rarity that underscores her newfound freedom from her repressive past. Simultaneously, the narrative delves into Tae-oh's trauma through a flashback or dream sequence depicting a bloody incident with his parents in the dark. This revelation leads readers to a new, widely accepted theory: Tae-oh suffers from nyctophobia (fear of the dark), not claustrophobia. This insight retroactively explains his previous panic attack in a dark elevator and his tendency to keep his penthouse constantly illuminated. While this tragic backstory elicits sympathy and a glimpse of his natural black hair excites fans, the core mysteries surrounding his profession and wealth remain unsolved, continuing the undercurrent of suspicion.
