Ofc thank u for the spoilers. I feel bad (idk why) but imma be dropping this I’m not about to stand by and watch as Erica and Zion get tgt (they deserve each other) while Leo (who legit did nothing wrong) hits it off with Yuliana (I WANTED HER TO AT LEAST BE THE VILAIN YK NOW THERES NO REASON TO HATE HER)
don't feel bad you shouldn't force yourself to read something you don't want to. I also dropped this series and i just wanted to share the spoilers to maybe save someone from wasting their time. also idk what happened to my memory there when i replied to u twice as if i completely forgot i alr replied
zion being a shitty friend too like wtf. and she had the audacity to string leo on and then and get upset when juliana comforted him with that "i know this would happen" mindset....like bitch you pushed him to it. you just kept stomping on his heart and then get upset. zion and erica are both trash.
Lmaooo I was wondering why there were 2 replies that practically said the same thing
Yea you saved me some time so thanks now I have more to read something else :)
Btw do u have any recs in this genre? To see what I’ve already read if u want u can go see my list it has ribbons (I forgot the exact name tho)
i have the memory of a goldfish
I'm looking through your list with the ribbons and we have like the same reads but here are some that i think you might like (forgive my memory if i add something that was on your list....i've alr proven how great my memory is)
- Carrier Falcon Princess
- I'll just live on as the villainess
- Éminence Grise Female lead is trying to make me her stepmom (that long ass title lmao)
- Saving the villain who was abandoned by the female lead
- I will change the genre
- The destroyer fell in love with me (it's not that intense and its lowkey just fluff)
- Villainess maker
- Extra doesn't want to be overly obsessed
I'll give more reccs later but here are some for now. also i saw sweet home in your plan to read and i just wanted to say...READ IT! simp for hyuk with me (my pfp). It's also a great manhwa and you can watch the live action after you read it (tho the manhwa is better and they did my man hyuk so dirty...it's still fun to watch. lee do hyun did a great job as well.)
Omg TY these look so good
I actually already read I will change the genre but idk why I didn’t put it in my list and I tried reading Saving the Vilain Who Was Abandonned By the Female Lead BUT when I saw the girl became small I was like will she stay like that for a long time and I never picked it back up (is it good? The art style was nice and the summary looked good but I wasn’t too sure)
AND SWEET HOME
I didnt actually think about reading this until late December when the live action came out on Netflix
And boy was it good I binged it in less than a day
AND UR TELLING ME THE MANHWA IS BETTER? I was gonna wait for a second season bc the storytelling wasn’t the same but maybe imma go read it instead (btw YES even just in the live action I was such a simp for Hyuk BUT THEY JUST [maybe spoiler for those who’ll read this comment] killed HIM OFF?? I was so sad istg
Yw!!
I love i will change the genre <3 it's so good.
idk how to explain what's happening in "saving the villain who was abandoned by the female lead" without spoiling what's happened after she became a kid so don't read this portion if that bothers u. After she became a kid the ML tried to find a way to break the curse but he couldn't. He ended up looking to the V's (i can't spell their name lmao) for help. He gave up a huge portion of his money in exchange for them adopting her. the V's adopt her, the father looks for ways to break the curse and everyone in that family likes her. as of rn the ML took the curse himself to become younger like her. I like it but you can make ur decision based on that.
SWEET HOME IS SO GOOD!! here's my thing with the live action. They changed the love interests (not upset abt this but i didn't like the personality change of eun (yoo)). Hyun su is with Eun yoo and Jae heon is with Jisu. Eun yoo the sweet girl in the manhwa becomes an absolute bitch (ESPECIALLY to (eun) hyuk). (eun) hyuk and (sang) wook NEVER interact..like at all. My husband is left all alone with no one to defend him. They also did this thing where they tried to include some scenes from the manhwa but they never explained it..and it often made hyuk seem like an asshole when he isn't. One example is the scene with the two kids. Right before hyun went up with wook to go get dusik and the kids, hyuk tells him to leave the kids if it comes down to it...BUT it's later shown that he said this to motivate hyun to bring the kids. One of the major character development scenes that we got was finding out abt how hyuk often says things he doesn't mean in order bc he knows the reaction it will invoke. He says things to motivate others to do a task but he doesn't mean the things that he says. In the live action they just showed the scene where he tells him to leave the kids...but just didn't show the rest of the scene. The thing that upset me with the manhwa is technically he's not dead but they might as well as killed him off. he has the same fate as hyun. They both became a cocoon but the only difference is, they showed hyun actually showed him get out of the cocoon. we know that once u become a cocoon, you will come back human so we know he comes back but they just don't show it. They also made a change with something else but i won't say bc it's a major spoiler for the live action...it pissed me off on another level. You should watch the live action bc it is good but in terms of whats better...def the manhwa.
Woah most of the stuff u said I don’t remember BUT I will trust u and go read the manhwa (and on WEBTOON to somehow support the author) but if there’s a second season of the live action I’ll also go watch it cause I just love the author and the music and all
Also u said they switches the love interests... if it’s not a spoiler what were the love interests in the manhwa?
Yes i'm excited for you to read it. idk if it is going to get a second season bc it came out in december but netflix hasn't renewed or cancelled it. Maybe a random time to recc something but you should watch alice in borderland. IT IS SOOOO GOOD WTF!! it's abt this guy and his friends who find themselves in an alternate version of tokyo and they have to compete in these life or death games in order to survive. The plot is amazing, the cinematography is amazing, the cast is amazing!! you must watch it. it's an adaptation of a manga but imo the live action is better (especially in terms of character likeability and introduction as a whole). it's also on netflix and it came out around the same time as sweet home. Unlike sweet home, netflix has renewed this for a second season and the second season is expected to come out late this year (or early next year if there are any delays due to covid).
In the manhwa hyun and jisu are together. Jayhun has feelings for jisu but nothing happens and eun likes hyun but nothing happens. Wook and Yuri are together in the live action & the manhwa so that stays the same.
Omg is Alice in Borderland THAT GOOD?? I started watching it but (again, for no valuable reason) dropped it and forgot about it since Netflix took it out of my “continue with” for some reason... i just didn’t get where the plot would go since the few first minutes of episode 1 were kinda boring to me... BUT IMMA GO WATCH IT SOON BEFORE I FORGET ABOUT IT AGAIN
AND OMG I shipped Wook and Yuri SO BAAAD but then the last few episodes fcked me up so bad LIKE???? Anyways another reason why imma go read the manhwa
netflix takes stuff out of your continue watching if you don't watch it for a long time. but yes it is THAT good. I remember watching the first few minutes and being like huh but it the plot is great. but yes you should go back and continue watching it!
wook and yuri were so cute i loved them. If you want i can tell u abt their end in the manhwa but again if you don't want to know then i won't tell u.
*NOT MY SPOILER I JUST WANTED TO SHARE*
ML #1 - Zion: He is a guy who is love deficient... he wanted love from his family but never got it so he looked for it in women. he is a massive playboy who seems to have commitment issue.. He falls in love with the FL because she seems to understand him or tries to and that she seems to know what he needs. He has the book of the story so he knows storyline events as well. I am not sure how he got it because they barely mentioned it in chapter 80s ish.
srsly… what kind of guy goes for his only friend's ex gf when he knows his friend is still clearly in love with her...
ML #2- Leo: I feel sorry for the dude... He let her go because he thought he wasn't worthy enough of her yet. He wanted to become more handsome and successful so he could proudly ask her to come back to him. The 3 years he wasn't with her, he focused all his time and energy in making something out of himself. He constantly misses her and cried sometimes.. They were together for a year but FL threw it all away with her weak*ss reason. He tried so hard to get her back by wearing his heart on his sleeves just so she could stomp on it all over again....
FL went to a masquerade ball at his residence and the day before the actual ball she said she would consider getting back together with him. But the next day she was caught kissing zion in front of her room when Leo went to see her (it was consensual). she then told him "yea I said I would consider it yesterday but I changed my mind today)….
Leo was so heartbroken so he leaned on og FL (Juliana) shoulder for a bit of comfort... FL Erica saw it and was all sad because he used to only lean on her but he leans on someone else now... Erica left the next day without a word of goodbye.
Juliana the og FL told Leo he could use her to replace all the memories of Erica later. If he misses Erica he can see her. If he wanted to hug Erica he could hug her etc... so he started to lean towards Juliana. Plus they were both illegitimate children so they could relate to one another.
If Erica didn't leave Leo they would have been a happy couple but oh well.
ML #3 Elliot/Alio: Mr. ultimate friend zoned. Not much to say about him because he was innocently obvious when it comes to liking Erica but hasn't said a word yet. Also he is the 2nd prince of the neighboring kingdom.
