- Bohyun answers the call. Garam asks if isn't Jaehyuk's phone. Bohyun is surprised that it was a man's voice and asks, "Isn't this Jaehyuk's gf's number?" and Garam says it isn't. He then hears girls' voices who were being invited to Jaehyuk and friends' table. He asks where they are.
- Jaehyuk gets back from the restroom and asks why there are suddenly people he doesn't know on their table. His friend tries to introduce him to the girls, but Jaehyuk gets pissed because he already told them he was dating someone. He takes his phone and tells them he's leaving.
- Bohyun tells him to stay for a while because his friend who called says he'll be joining them. Jaehyuk finds out it was Garam and rushes home.
- Garam isn't picking up his phone and when Jaehyuk got home, he wasn't there. Jaehyuk was about to head out to look for him but Garam was by the door when he opens it. Garam walks past him though Jaehyuk notices something and grabs his hand. He asks if Garam has been crying.
Thank you as always! I was afraid this was going to happen. His friend just couldn’t help himself and answered the phone… ugh!! Garam obviously was crying, but this could actually be for the best in that maybe now he realises he’s been taking Jk’s feelings not as seriously and this may finally be just the thing needed for them to communicate their feelings clearly to each other. Fingers crossed next week is going to be a good one!!!
Thanks as usual!
This time I have 3 comments to make:
1) now I understand why J's black-haired friend always wear a cap... But he should change hairdresser instead of doing that.
2) I thought that Garam and the red-haired guy would have recognized each other voice, since they know each other.
3) Please Garam, trust him! (Even if I understand that the plot would be more intriguing if he woun't)
Thank you so much I hope Garam will trust him this time. They're way too soon into their relationship to deal with such a big misunderstanding. Hopefully they'll clear things up next chapter. Not only about Garam trust issues but also and mainly about his true feelings towards Jaehuyk. My man has been patient and vocal about his feelings yet Garam still cannot reassure him about his
According to Garam's conversation with his friend from last week chapter, his feelings are not as strong as Jaehuyk's ones. He even expressed his surprised at why Jaehuyk is taking their relationship so seriously. Maybe this last event made him realize he likes Jaehuyk a bit more than he thinks. I hope so otherwise he would literally be playing around with Jaehuyk's feelings
I swear Garam likes Jaehyuk more than he can show and I think he knows this. He just really needs to heal from his issues caused by his past to pour out all his feelings. Something about his ex caused his present self to clam up/shy away from affection, even though he was previously the type to say "I like you" and initiate a kiss based on the flashback with his ex.
I just also hope they can resolve this soon because imagine how cute they would be when Garam learns to be more affectionate again

- Garam is with Sunhong at the cafe. Garam supposes that Jaehyuk feels the same way he felt back with his ex. It's like begging for affection since the relationship started because he liked his ex first, and he knew that the other's feelings weren't as strong as his. He thinks that Jaehyuk is surprisingly serious about their relationship and that the problem is himself.
- Sunhong says it's a shame that they're breaking up, but the idea of it shocks Garam.
- Meanwhile, Jaehyuk is out drinking with his friends and is complaining about how the person he's dating doesn't even contact him after a fight.
- When his friend tells him some girls are interested, Jaehyuk asks if he's crazy and says he's already dating someone (his friend says he dgaf about that before). When his friend says, "They don't like you very much," Jaehyuk says "Who doesn't like who? We're dating because we like each other." Then when his friend thinks this person is just using him for money, Jaehyuk says this person already makes a fuss about being gifted with clothes.
- Jaehyuk then goes on a rant saying his partner is ugly but cute and that they're just dating for a while and he could end things with a difficult person (same old shit talk) when his phone rang. He immediately checks it only to be disappointed that it's not Garam. He thinks Garam doesn't care about him.
- Jaehyuk excuses himself to go to the bathroom. He left his phone and his friend tried to look for pics of his girlfriend but it was locked. The phone rang though and the caller ID is alternating fountain and heart emojis (a reference to when Garam squirted like a fountain ).
As usual, thank you!
I have tree comments to make:
1) why is J's black-haired friend always wearing a cap?
2) Yes, I smiled like a fool while seeing J's smartphone (fountains and hearts: he truly loves his personal waterfall). But now I want to know how Garam calls or will call J on his own smartphone.
3) Please, red-haired friend, I found you fun in the past seasons, don't make me hate you now: don't ever think of responding out of curiosity and then cancelling the call to hide your mistake, so that J won't know that Garam called him.

- Jaehyuk used to be annoyed about people making a fuss about past relationships but now he's very bothered about Garam's ex that he couldn't sleep well.
- He wonders why Garam didn't wanna date after breaking up with his ex, if Garam liked his ex that much, and if the guy was Garam's first love.
- Garam notices that Jaehyuk looks tired and asks if it's because they had too much sex, but Jaehyuk says they're supposed to do it as much as they like. He pulls Garam into a kiss, but Garam is flustered and pushes him off, which causes his plate to fall down and break.
- That's when Jaehyuk snaps. He asks why did Garam even go out with him. He says he tried to hold it in and wait because Garam didn't like it when he says I like you or things like honey, but now Garam acts like that from just kissing. He asks if Garam even likes him. He asks if Garam was like this before and if he just have sex when he meets his ex.
- Garam says it has nothing to do with now, and Jaehyuk resigns to thinking that Garam really was different with his ex. He says in the end, he's just a dildo to Garam while cleaning up the broken plate. He leaves and says he won't be coming back to the apartment for today.
Thank you for this. There was major angst in today’s chapter but it had to happen sooner or later. Jaehyuk is all in with how he feels for Garam, however, Garam is still cautious with his emotions given his past hurt and how him and Jaehyuk’s “relationship” began. Jaehyuk wants to be lovey-dovey, and sweet, and all, but Garam may not be ready for that.
Thank you for the spoilers I had it all wrong from just the panels lol I thought Jaehyuk was super tired and sleeping bad because of Garam disgusyin food and he couldn't tell him the truth haha. Then I figured he was jealous of the ex and he finally confronted Garam about it. I am kinda disappointed he didn't tell him how he felt and only blamed Garam without explaining anything :((
Thing is, Jaehyuk has been expressing to Garam how he’s felt for some time now. I think it was back in chapter 61 when he told Garam that he wanted more from their relationship than just sex, that his feelings for him were real. This came after he was stealing kisses from Garam in his sleep (or so he thought). Then in the first chapter of the new season, after Garam pulls him in for a kiss, he asks Garam if this means he accepts his feelings for him. I feel Jaehyuk is ready for a real relationship with Garam, but they obviously have issues to work through. Garam has to reconcile his past relationship and the resulting emotional scars with the wall he’s put up between himself and Jaehyuk.
Yep. Sounds about right. I get that. But there also the difference in their character we should consider. One is very extroverted and exuberant while Garam is the total opposite. Even if Garam was head over toe into Jaehuyk, I still don't expect him to become all lovey dovey and clingy. He just doesn't give that vibe. He's cautious and kinda serious. That's how he is in his daily life with his college duties, work and even his family. Jaehuyk is insecure and rightfully so this time, but he also should not expect Garam to become just like him and deny his own personality
I agree 100%. They both have some work to do to make their relationship work. They have to communicate better and understand where each other is coming from. It’ll take time because as you say, their personalities are opposite to each other, Garam is clearly more guarded with his emotions while Jaehuyk is more open. I’m fascinated by their development and hope they can communicate clearly how they feel and what they want.
There's a short flashback of Garam and his ex in this chapter where Garam was kissing him and saying, "I like you, really," so Jaehyuk wouldn't be wrong to think that Garam was different and more expressive about his feelings for his ex. He just misunderstood and thinks Garam doesn't do lovey dover stuff because he doesn't like him as much. What's really the case is that Garam isn't the same as before because he was badly hurt. It's only after his breakup with his ex that he became more cautious, and I think he'll work his way into being more open again as their relationship progresses.

- Garam tries to cook for Jaehyuk but it was burnt. Garam says he wanted to cook for Jaehyuk because the meals Jaehyuk prepares were always delicious. He wanted to do well too but he promises to do better next time.
- Garam was shaking while saying that. Jaehyuk thinks that Garam pretends he's cool but there's always a clumsy side to him and it drives him crazy. He gets turned on and they have sex. As usual, Jaehyuk says he likes Garam and calls him honey while Garam asks him to shut his mouth.
- They hang out at the cafe. Jaehyuk wonders until when will Garam be awkward with him and if he's like this with his past relationships or if it's just with him.
- Sunhong (pink hair) arrives with their drinks and says it's the first time he's seeing Garam in a relationship. Jaehyuk finds out that Garam only has one ex-boyfriend.
- Jaehyuk excuses himself to go to the restroom. He thinks that he's doomed. He's so bothered about Garam's ex.

- After the phone call with Bohyun, Garam immediately heads out to go to the bar. He thinks that he's crazy for trusting Jaehyuk. He imagines showing up at the bar to see Jaehyuk kissing a girl, then he remembers the way Jaehyuk looks at him while he was laying on his lap, and he stops in his track.
- When Jaehyuk asks him if he was crying, he says he wasn't. Jaehyuk tries to explain that Garam is misunderstanding something but Garam cuts him off and says he didn't want to talk about it.
- Garam heads to his room while Jaehyuk asks if Garam really doesn't care about him and whether he leaves the house or cheat on him. Jaehyuk says, "Right... I'm sorry. You don't even like me, but I was hoping for too much."
- Jaehyuk was walking away when Garam actually goes out of his room and tackles him from behind. While crying, Garam says, "Who doesn't like you?!" He says he was gonna let it go. He tells him about how he planned to go to the bar to check everything with his own eyes but he thought about what happens next and it's that it would be over for them. He just tried to keep it in.
- Jaehyuk hugs Garam and says sorry for getting mad over nothing and leaving the house. He says he really didn't do anything shameful and asks for Garam to trust him. And Garam says he wants to believe Jaehyuk too.
- Garam still worries in his thoughts about what if he gets betrayed again, but then Jaehyuk says, "What if I get a chastity belt or something?"
scheduled break next week btw
Thanks a million!!! I eagerly await your translations each week. Sad to know they’ll be taking a break in the scheduled release next week, but we kinda need a breather after this chapter!!! This was a rollercoaster of emotions on every level. From Garam’s imaginations to Jaehyuk’s desperation, our guys didn’t disappoint!! I truly hope Garam is able to finally open up and let Jaehyuk in. I know Jaehyuk has some redeeming to do on his part for how awful he was in the beginning, but he has demonstrated that he truly cares for Garam. I just want them to work out!!
Yeah Jaehyuk can't blame Garam for having these doubts. But also I do think this chapter showed how much space Jaehyuk had taken up in Garam's heart. Garam tried to hold it in and let the issue go all because he didn't want to end things with Jaehyuk, he would've never done that in the earlier seasons
Thanks a lot! I also rush in here right after reading the raws I am glad Garam didn't isolate himself. At least it his melt down shows that he cares for Jaehuyk. I still think he needs to do more and communicate better. I feel like it's always about him. He constantly forgets about Jaehuyk's feelings but I guess it's just a sign of lack of confidence
Thanks as always!
I hate these breaks, but the important thing is that our elephant and squirrel aren't breaking up! I couldn't have bear to wait two weeks to see them to talk and make up
Agreed. I’m relieved at the way the chapter ended. I’m happy they embraced, but I’m ready for them to come clean and really communicate their true feelings for each other.
