It's NOT about ML being a sweetheart person in this life and had a ridiculous sob backstory in past .
He was just jealous of a innocent person , who never caused harm to him and was only supporting him through the end . I felt that poision part was whitewashing all ill deeds he did into - Oh ! I was manipulated ..sob sob.
We never gave this sympathy to - Rashta from Remarried Empress . Besides her evil schemes and rusty nature , she was slave who was r**** and gave birth to a child . Later , the child was stolen from her and a dead child was thrown at her feet . She was a true victim and evil created by her environment unlike this jerk . Tho , none of her evil action justifies anything but for saying ...
I know , I am going off the topic !
Main problem is how despicable this work is portrayed. Like no way a FL who have suffered like this won't develop life long trauma . It's unforgettable moments seeing your father and baby dead .
Think if someone killed your child or dad .... Will you be able to forget it ?
I am pissed because we got a low esteemed and braindead FL .
Fl could forgive but should never forget .
This is what makes this work toxic for everyone because they think ML or men like this aren't bad . Disgusting !
Take an example from - Angelic Lady . Jania ( the fl ) took the lesson , understood her own trauma and left the ex for good. It also had same mind manipulation but did fl returned to same person? Nah , she didn't and moved on . They remained best friends and this ( for me) was more realistic approach.
Not to remind that Korean girl had more braincells than our Mc because in first lifetime she wanted a powerful man to relay over and she did that .
In second one , she was mentally broken ( by sane jerk ) and left this shit hole .
It was kind of her to remind our dumb fl about her past but ofcourse that foolish girl with high school crush was like - Oh no ! He ain't the same guy . He changed ~
Poor girl was kidnapped, used and mentally broken by the aashole but is still called villainess .
I can like kinda understand where yall are coming from but the blue haired guy(ruve) isn't the same as he was at the start she went literally back in time before he had done anything bad and it literally clearly indicates that in the past he was poisoned and the poison can cause one to act aggressive and differently or stress and stuff but im not defending his actions I'm just saying that everything that happened until that moment made up of the person he was in the past but when she went back in time he wasn't the same person because in the events of all our lives they make up of what we are and how differently we react so yeah I'm just saying that the present ruve is a good guy and not the same rapist and abusive guy that the other ruve was
