Well, it's pretty common in these countries to hide your feelings and thoughts so there are no clear communication. They're like that.
I know that, but I've been reading manga/ manhwa, been watching anime/ Asian dramas for over 20 years and it's always been this trope. Like at a certain point, I expect growth. Like why would you continue doing something that only causes more problems for yourself in the long run? And like they all do it. You would think someone would switch shit up. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome
I am so damn tired of every manhwa/ manga having characters that don't know how to communicate. That shit is so annoying and it's like in literally all romance manhwa/ manga. They don't communicate which leads to a big misunderstanding which leads to a fight before they finally reconcile by actually communicating which they should've done in the first damn place! Just talk to each other! Explain what you're feeling! Why is that so damn hard?! Why do most authors follow that formula?!
