What Happened in Childhood Friend Complex Chapter 79? (Recap)
- A Step Forward: Mincheol has finally begun to learn to think and he’s taken a huge step in the right direction by finally being honest with his thoughts and calling Haneul pretty!
- Haneul’s Patience: Haneul has been quite clear that she is willing to wait for Mincheol to come to terms with his complicated feelings, instead of rushing into a forced marriage.
- Jaehee’s Interference: Jaehee’s presence continues to heavily annoy the fanbase. While the author seems to be attempting to mold him into a platonic friend, readers are largely hoping for his complete and permanent exit from the main couple’s storyline.
- Festival Preparations: The stage is slowly being built for the upcoming school festival, which so many fans feel will be the ultimate culmination of their longed-for romantic breakthrough.
What Are the Spoilers for Childhood Friend Complex Chapter 80?
Fans expect that the next few chapters will spend 100% of the time on the festival, possibly it will be the setting for Mincheol to genuinely and truly confess to Haneul. Before becoming a part of a relationship, Mincheol may need to deal with one last thing: the trauma and misunderstandings from his childhood (ages 8-14) that have been holding him back from experiencing emotional development.
While Jaehee looms in the background, there is a great chance that Jaehee may try one final time to mess with him but hopefully, Haneul will finally and firmly put a stop to him. The community is hoping that the couple dynamics found in Chapter 80, which are cute and chaotic, will lead them into their real dating era, and not further prolong the angst any longer.
