𝙱𝚘𝚘𝚔 𝙲𝚘𝚟𝚎𝚛: 5/10
The cover is pastel and cutesy which indeed matches the personality of the boyfriend, so with relation to the character's personality it is fine. My only dislike is the fact that you have only focused on highlighting the cutesy elements of that specific character in the cover, when the plot primarily focuses on the guilt of Hayoon for being a part of a one-sided relationship. Instead the cover seems to depict a random lovey-dovey couple.
My suggestion would be to use a more neutral-themed cover that shows a sense of longing— of unrequited love— because like I said, the cutesy personality of the old love interest is not the main theme of the story.

The definition of 'ostensible' is: "stated or appearing to be true, but not necessarily so."
I understand your use of this word was meant to highlight the "twist" in your story, and yes it's intriguing because it's an uncommon word, but it does not tell the reader anything about the theme of your story. All it implies is that something in your story is not what it seems, which is misleading because it makes your book seem like a mystery-genre. It does not give the reader any hint of the genre of your story, what the characters are like, or the main plot.
