### Summary
The narrative continues its deep dive into a critical flashback, revealing the origins of the series' central tragedy through the intertwined history of the antagonist, Yeom-ra, and the brothers Yoonmin (also called Yeom-oh) and a young Yoon-jae (Yoon). The chapter focuses on Yeom-ra's escalating and destructive obsession with Yoonmin. Consumed by a desperate fear of loneliness and abandonment, Yeom-ra is deliberately engineering a fatal "accident" for the innocent Yoon-jae. This is not depicted as fate, but as a cruel, manipulative scheme to sever Yoonmin's connection to the human world and force his permanent return to the underworld. Reader response is overwhelmingly one of profound sorrow for the brothers' loving bond and intense anger toward Yeom-ra's selfish, possessive actions. While some readers empathize with his loneliness, the consensus is that his inability to communicate his feelings does not justify his horrific solution. This flashback is explicitly setting up the catalyst for the entire plot: the engineered tragedy that will compel Yoonmin to illegally save his brother, thereby creating the curse that defines the present-day story.
