Exactly! When you receive a gift from someone and you genuinely like it, it means that that person took the time and made the effort to get to know your likes and dislikes.
Good gift givers are rare.
Chapter 7 feels very real because Chiyeong thinks of Uigin when he sees the name of the farm, and when you like someone, you pay attention to what they say to get them things they like or do things to help them even when that person very obviously doesn't return your feelings, but just the feeling of being useful to that person and seeing them happy makes you do things like that sometimes even if it is very pathetic.
I also like that Uigin set boundaries with Chiyeong and isn't using him to do the typical "make the person I like jealous to see if they fall for me", Chiyeong's crush is one sided and Uigin is not obligated to return his feelings, he coldly rejected him and has been polite, that is something I've seen people do because they think if they keep being very nice they might lead on the other person.
