### Summary
The narrative has taken a sharp, disorienting turn, abandoning a tense present-day cliffhanger to plunge into a tragic flashback detailing the ancient past of the god-like San Baek, who is also referred to as Bumryung and Chongah in this era. This new arc reveals a shocking plot twist, heavily speculated upon by readers: the protagonist, Hyosin Lee, is the reincarnation of the god's loyal dog companion from this past life. In this timeline, Bumryung adopts a human child, but it is his dog, Samuk, who ultimately gains a human form and forges a deep bond with him. The central conflict of this backstory is a great betrayal, where the adopted child, consumed by jealousy, deceives the god and steals half of his power. This sudden shift dramatically recontextualizes the entire story, moving beyond the immediate psychological horror of Hyosin's obsessive brother, Lee. The couple's modern romance is now framed as a fated, reincarnated connection, their current struggle for survival shadowed by an ancient history of loyalty and treachery.
