Revenge a dish best served flaming hot


I was genuinely happy for the FL and how the revenge arc was structured. It didn't drag to the end of season 1 as many other manhwas would've (▰˘◡˘▰)


However, how it was conducted leaves me feeling even more strongly that the racism and stereotypes were not needed.

And if the author REALLY wanted to add it in, then it should've been handled in a much more respectful and informed manner.


Why? Because representation matters. Media depictions of PoC matter. What people consume, directly and indirectly, matters.

    Disappointing and concerning that comments here don't realise that, particularly during such a challenging time globally for so many people of colour

    Really though, it's been so overused that I got so used to the uncomfortableness it gives.

    I'd rather they make them wear western attire as well and make them similarly toned to the main characters and not a particular representation that's been made too common referring to a particular country in real life.

    Well... it's nothing much when you suffer from getting rejected for colour in the marriage market where arranged marriages are common. I'm too tired to even comment on it now-a-days.
