As other commenters have said, this is not your traditional, period romance manwha/webtoon. I think of this story as a Jane Austin, Anne Brontë, Charlotte Brontë, inspired piece. Diverting from the usual novel format, and applying a literature style of storytelling, to the modern manga/manwha/webtoon medium.

I have been reading this story from the first chapter. Previously commenting on the similarites between this story and "Agnes Grey." A novel by Anne Brontë, a splendid author of only two books. Anne, often is overlooked due to Charlotte, author of Jane Eyre, and Emily Brontë, author of Wuthering Heights, who were her sisters.

If this story does not suit a person's aesthetic, no harm done. I personally enjoy many stories of the isekai/romance genre. However, I often forget their storylines and characters because they are too similar, requiring a refresher before continuing. This story, never.

Pardon me for presuming to speak on behalf of those who enjoy this story.  Hating a story without reason, the characters do not fit the standard model of the typical romance, you "just don't like" it, is not a relevant nor supported argument. Constructive analysis of character's, their development, or lack thereof in cases, plot structure/devices, stereotypes, societal influences and expectations, among other items too long to list. Those topics make for good discussion of a piece.

As someone who appreciates this story, to those who "just don't like it", who do not support their dislike with evidence sourced from the work, I am sure there are hundreds of other stories on this website you would enjoy and will bring joy to your lives.
