It's

imo i only felt bad for og fl in the beginning bc ever since the mall incident with the employees she’s been straying from her original mary sue-like character

I kinda understand what youre saying in that she is also being controlled by the story but the fact that her path is so easily shifted shows she wasn't a good person to begin with. If all it takes is our MC acting kind and doing work than that shows Han Seori was always bad but just looked better when MC was acting bad

A bit on the fence but really dislike the OG fl. Cause the work part wasn't the voice telling her, it was just the story setting, so in a way when she kept shifting responsibilities that's the OG FL's own decisions. Being a burden to others and shifting responsibilities really annoys me. It's only the later part when she started being more aware and the story starts brainwashing her that I started to feel bad. But not bad enough to stop disliking her

Yea you do have a point

Yea same I still dislike her

I couldn't agree more to what you say.

I see where you like/feel bad for her but in the majority of the story of fl rarely had the flower ordeal influence her, we seen it more with ml then og fl and even HE rarely saw/interacted with the flower ordeal, I feel bad for og fl in her own timeline somewhat because she did face hardship with fl/og villainess but she was still a white lily/Mary Sue because even if it's a different timeline the actions in the beginning where the same and she still relied on her boyfriend/the brother and push all of her work onto the poor co workers and they literally couldn't refuse no matter how back up they were (I know this is the least bad thing but still an ass hole thing to do).
