### Summary
Following a devastating cliffhanger where Yeo Eui-Joon received shocking news of a death after Beom Gunwoo's violent stabbing and subsequent disappearance, the narrative has pivoted to a new source of intense emotional conflict. In his state of vulnerability and grief, Eui-Joon is unexpectedly kissed by the supporting character Cha Hayeon. This pivotal moment has thrown the story into a potential love triangle, creating a schism in the readership, with many expressing a strong case of "second lead syndrome" due to Cha's perceived chemistry with Eui-Joon. The immediate tension has shifted from the external dangers of Gunwoo's gangster life to this burgeoning romantic turmoil. Readers anticipate a violent confrontation, with widespread speculation that Gunwoo ("Ahjuicy") is about to witness the scene, leading to a massive misunderstanding. While some fans argue Cha is unaware that Eui-Joon and Gunwoo's feelings are mutual, the act itself has set the stage for a new arc of angst, jealousy, and interpersonal drama, complicating the central relationship at its most fragile point.
