### Summary
The dynamic between Ji-hwan and Yu-seong intensifies during a tutoring session where Yu-seong employs an intimate and unconventional method—a kiss for every wrong answer—in an attempt to make Ji-hwan quit their arrangement. This leads to a pivotal, non-consensual "smooch" that readers found both shocking and cute, solidifying the series' "enemies to lovers" appeal. The chapter's tone, however, takes a sharp, dramatic turn with the sudden revelation of Ji-hwan's severe past trauma. A flashback depicts a harrowing car accident where he was unable to save a stranger, an event that has clearly left him terrified and guilt-ridden. This jarring shift from a fluffy, comedic atmosphere to a serious, traumatic one captivated the audience, with Yu-seong's subsequent concerned reaction hinting at a deeper evolution in their relationship. Readers are now intensely curious about both characters' backstories, particularly the source of Ji-hwan's trauma, praising the chapter as an emotional "roller coaster" that effectively balances cute interactions with significant character depth, despite some minor confusion about the flashback's timeline.
