### Summary
The narrative shifts to a flashback, revealing the deep-seated origins of the central relationship. This chapter introduces a young, "precious" Eun-Woo, whose depiction has charmed readers, drawing comparisons to other beloved characters. The pivotal revelation is that Eun-Woo's feelings for Crown Prince Lee Hyun are not recent but a long-held childhood love, confirming for readers that "she fell first." This new context reframes their entire dynamic, prompting surprise and discussion about the fairness of their current situation, with many expressing the hope that Lee Hyun will now have to make a significant effort to earn her affection. The flashback also appears to feature a younger, "sweeter" version of Lee Hyun, which contrasts sharply with the harsh and coercive behavior he displayed in the previous chapter, further fueling the ongoing debate about his capacity for redemption. While reader focus is primarily on the endearing portrayal of young Eun-Woo, the chapter also sparks new speculation about the characters' age gap and the potential involvement of other court figures, such as the Empress. Ultimately, this chapter deepens the emotional history between the leads, complicating their established power imbalance with a new layer of naive, long-standing devotion.
