I disagree. This ch, we can see her starting to take some initiative. She's starting to want him, actively so. She staked a claim, she showed want and desire. She has a real show of agency here. Progress for her who wanted to push him away, who didnt believe in him or the idea of "them". She quite her job, gave a hickie, wants him to stay and invites him. Distance is making her want, making him miss him and his presence.
I think youre being a bit bad faith about it.

She is still in dilemma asking herself the same thing. The initiative is there but nothing note-worthy. I know their is process bit by bit but a chapter of just a kiss and her thinking and tae and lee talking. That all is going.
Also it not a bad faith to expect hae-soo take some strong stance for herself.
This chapter was unnecessary. Nothing new just again hae-soo with boring clothes and showing all kind of body shapes and repeating the same dilog she repeat from starting
