The correct reading まくあい is a jukujikun, using the kun'yomi of 幕 (まく) and 間 (あい) together for a specific meaning. Incorrect options like かいまく (開幕) or まくおさめ (幕納め) are separate valid words for opening or closing scenes, while はいまく is not standard. 幕間 refers to an intermission or interval, specifically between acts of a performance.
正しい読みの「まくあい」は、幕(まく)と間(あい)の訓読みを組み合わせた熟字訓です。「かいまく」や「まくおさめ」は別の単語であり、「はいまく」は誤りです。幕間は、演劇などの休憩時間を指します。
