### Summary
The current chapter explores the immediate aftermath of the previous installment's cliffhanger, shifting the central conflict to Dojin's family's disapproval of his relationship with Yeonwoo. In the wake of his brother's distressing reaction, Dojin is clearly hurt and suffocated by the lack of support. The core of the chapter, however, lies in the stark contrast between the couple's responses to this crisis. Yeonwoo approaches the situation with a detached pragmatism, arguing that if their parents don't approve, "it is what it is," and that they can simply live their lives, as they won't be stuck with their families forever. This unemotional and logical method of consoling Dojin highlights Yeonwoo's established character trait of being emotionally reserved, a response that readers find both relatable and unsettlingly cold. While the conflict is framed around familial rejection, reader speculation continues to suggest the brother's negative reaction may be a tragic misunderstanding involving a character named Yuri. Ultimately, this new external pressure tests the couple's dynamic by exposing the fundamental difference between Dojin's emotional vulnerability and Yeonwoo's stoic rationalism.
