### Summary
The intense reader backlash from the previous chapter has solidified into overwhelming condemnation, focusing on the secondary pairing of Tae-hyeon and Marina. The BDSM-themed encounter is almost universally viewed not as eroticism, but as a disturbing and non-consensual act of abuse. Readers express profound pity and sadness for Tae-hyeon, describing his ordeal as "torture" and "depressing," while directing intense dislike towards Marina, labeling her a "sicko" and "trash." The narrative reveals more about their dynamic, including Tae-hyeon's childhood trauma and a manipulative contract he can only escape by losing his virginity. Marina's use of a knife in the scene has further horrified the audience, cementing their view of her as an abuser. This has led to widespread calls to "\#savetaehyeonfrommarina" and even speculation that his inability to perform with her might stem from his sexuality. Amidst the disgust, a moment of dark humor emerged with the introduction of an impotency expert named "Dr. Lim Pinous," which provided the only source of levity for readers. Overall, the storyline is seen as a significant misstep, with the audience deeply invested in seeing Tae-hyeon freed from what they perceive as a deeply abusive relationship.
