In the previous chapter of the romance manhwa “What Kind of Rice Cake Is This,” Cheong had too much to drink and fell asleep. As a result, the female lead, Siru, was tasked with taking care of him and bringing the inebriated Cheong back to his home. However, Siru did not actually know where Cheong lived. That is the reason why fans are anticipating the release date of the upcoming What Kind of Rice Cake Is This Chapter 24.
Unexpectedly, Cheong’s phone rang, and a mysterious girl gave Siru an address, claiming it was where Cheong resided. Siru believed her and brought Cheong to that location.
But later, it was revealed that the address did not belong to Cheong at all – rather, it was the residence of this unknown girl who had called his phone. Cheong himself was shocked when he saw the girl; he was clearly not expecting her.
So, in Chapter 24, readers will finally uncover who this mystery girl is and what her connection to Cheong entails. Her motives for redirecting Siru to her own home while Cheong was drunk remain ambiguous.
As Cheong’s romantic interest, Siru will likely have a vested interest in getting to the bottom of this girl’s sudden encroachment into their lives.
Fans eagerly anticipating the next installment of this rom-com manhwa can expect Chapter 24 to shed light on this cliffhanger centered around the surprise female character.
The exact release date is still unconfirmed, but stay tuned for more updates.
Recap and Review
When Chapter 23 opens, Siru gets an unexpected call on Cheong’s phone. She informs the mystery caller that Cheong is currently unavailable and has dozed off from drinking too much alcohol. The unidentified girl on the other end shrieks in surprise upon hearing Siru’s voice and demands to know what she is doing with Cheong at the moment.
Siru explains they are out socializing together with some mutual friends at a bar. Cheong simply overindulged in drinking over the course of the night. But this girl seems disturbed to learn that Siru and Cheong are spending time together one-on-one outside of work.
The girl presses Siru for more details regarding her connection to Cheong and what they get up to when not in professional teacher-student settings. Though Siru keeps it vague, there are hints she harbors personal, romantic feelings for Cheong that this unlabeled “friend” sees as a threat.
As the chapter continues folding out this late-night confrontation, readers will gain meaningful insight into the tense dynamic between Siru and this mysterious girl vying for Cheong’s attention.
Neither are pleased to discover they have a rival in the man’s life. Yet his own unawareness of being caught between two love interests provides comedic relief.
Still unaware of the caller’s identity and relation to Cheong, Siru requests his home address so she can send the passed-out Cheong home safely via taxi.
But rather than provide that, the mystery girl evasively asks for Siru’s phone number instead. When Siru begins reciting her number, the girl abruptly ends the call.
Moments later, though, Siru receives a text on Cheong’s phone containing an address purportedly belonging to him.
Spoilers and Expectations
Perplexed by the odd exchange, Siru tries unsuccessfully to rouse the still fast-asleep Cheong. As she reaches to feel his forehead to check his temperature, he suddenly grabs her hand in his sleep to stop her.
The situation leaves Siru baffled as she tries caring for her inebriated acquaintance while this unnamed girl actively interferes through cryptic conversation and dubious tips.
The girl’s motives remain unclear, though she demonstrates a suspiciously strong interest in Siru and Cheong spending an evening together.
While Siru attempts to decipher the address texted from Cheong’s phone and deal with his drunken antics, readers are left on the edge of their seats.
Chapter 24 promises significant development in the messy love triangle emerging between Siru, Cheong, and this faceless figure competing for Cheong’s heart.
