## Chapter
- number: 55
- release_date: 2025-03-02

### Summary
The current chapter depicts a fragile and tense "calm before the storm," contrasting moments of tender intimacy between Geum-hoo and Beom with an overwhelming sense of impending doom. The central conflict has shifted to Geum-hoo's internal turmoil as he contemplates sending Beom away, believing it is the only way to ensure his safety from the sadistic prince. This internal debate is amplified by the arrival of Beom's long-lost brother and father, who urge Beom to leave the country with them, invoking the "blood is thicker than water" argument. Readers passionately reject this notion, frequently citing the proverb's full, original meaning—"The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb"—to argue that the couple's chosen bond is superior to biological ties. Fan sentiment is a potent mix of cherishing the couple's precious moments of peace and expressing profound anxiety and dread for the separation and suffering they foresee. The atmosphere is heavy with foreshadowing, leaving the audience pleading for the characters' happiness while bracing for the inevitable tragedy.
