I hope we're not forgetting that Itae DOES get jealous. Remember their first night together? Itae got upset knowing that Geum slept with someone else before and made it look like he was so experienced compared to Itae, Geum made it feel like their first time didn't mean as much to Geum as it was to Itae. Itae has also showed insecurity and being upset when the topic of Geum supposedly being with an Omega should happen. Itae gets upset about that it literally brings him down to run away and cry. The Alpha-Omega Destiny is low-key a sore spot to Itae, but Geum has always repeatedly squashed all that just to profess that he only has eyes for Itae.
Itae's not exactly dense. I'd rather categorize him as extremely spoilt rotten. He was given the privilege not to overthink about other matters, and not to exhaust his heart on external troubles. It's just that he puts enough heart to matters that really concern him (in other words, he puts his priority in matters between him and Geum, not matters like professional policies and such). Like, for example, he has nothing against adding Alphas and Omegas to the company because it's not like Geum is doing it because he's looking for a marriage candidate - the reason they're adding Alphas and Omegas is so they don't get in trouble with the labor law. But if someone, like a business spartner or whatever, were to present Geum a list of Omega partners, then Itae would have felt jealous and upset.
And I'd like to disagree with commenters who say that Itae doesn't feel like he loves Geum at all, or that he doesn't reciprocate, or that he just doesn't understand Geum's love because of his aloofness. It is EXACTLY because of Geum's overbearing and unwavering love that Itae is like that. Itae was so spoiled rotten because no one deserves to feel like they're being toyed around, Geum made that declaration to secure their relationship and Itae happily let's himself to be in that comfortable and secure private space with Geum.
Their relationship is so established to be monogamous and devoted that Itae really separated their romantic life from external forces. Itae sees no point letting other things bother them because Geum is so proactive in professing his love. What does Itae have to be jealous of when that is the kind of man you have? What you offer to reciprocate such unwavering love is to be loyal, and to pamper him. You can very much see how much Itae is sweet with Geum when they're alone and/or at home.
I don't mind seeing jealous Itae in the future chapters and all that, but I just want to specifically note that it won't be a 'new arc' or 'character development' per se, because Itae was already insecure before, and he has already exhibited jealousy. Itae's jealous scenes will be, however, a nice thing to read more because these two are so cute.
I'll just add too that the amnesia side story is probably the saddest one in this comedy manhwa. If it had been a more serious manhwa, things would have turned out differently because the way Geum acted was so cold, and the way he kept thinking in disbelief that he was obsessed with a Beta makes me think that if this side story was any nor elaborate, Geum would have really showed his disbelief in action and that he would have really pushed Itae away. Anyways, bless that this manhwa is a comedy.
Anyways, since we've seen the Omega pining for Itae, we'll probably gonna get another Omega or (a very likely possibility) an Alpha pining for Geum. Like a recessive alpha or something who can't help but he attracted to a dominant alpha lol. I think that would be really funny and Itae is probably gonna get confused with all those omegaverse dynamics that he just can't wrap his head around. I'm also low-key interested in seeing another Beta into the love arcs. Maybe a Beta chasing Geum? Or a Beta chasing Itae? Or Both? Either way, the short side stories are so cute and refreshing.
