As a girl who reads a wide range of manhwa and is also into finance (I enjoy reading Bloomberg and listening to reports) this series was honestly so refreshing, in most manhwa the fl or love interest would be inserted into every scene and they’d then have to spiral into nonsense because “this scene would be better with fan service” and while I love fan service when it’s not well integrated it doesn’t help the plot, and with this manhwa the love interest isn’t needed in the plot so they don’t add her which is nice, and the aunt got on my nerves earlier in the manhwa but they didn’t make her a one dimensional character who just wanted to make people suffer instead she has reasons why she does what she does and while I may not agree with some of them I was shocked at how they made her realistic in this story and have to learn she was wrong
I also love the plot as a whole it’s kind of like ‘succession’ but with ‘industry’ plot progression in that the inheritance battle is part of the plot with a lot of takeaways like being ruthless and the story is an uphill battle with a string of motivations
Queen I think you drop this .
Also absolutely agree, there are tons of good manhwa but because of the female lead or the unnecessary harem collecting *shivers in disgust*, I usually stop and just drop them because the fl is annoying, is literally just ruining the storyline, or keeps sabotaging the ml
Yesss when there’s a really good plot and you want to continue and then they retcon elements to progress the romance it gets so tiring
I would’ve liked to see the contents of the show they made before putting that one guy in tacky ch*nel and saying he’s a star . The protagonist is focused on all the wrong things this is like king of drama but without the funny moments, without the characters that aren’t 1 dimensional, without tasteful romance (the protag basically becomes a fan of semi and doesn’t know her life struggles, anything truely personality wise before he thinks she’s meant for him) and without giving us true reason to think the protagonist is a someone we should truely root for
Like he feels happy taking the orb even if it means his friends/workers are uncomfortable and he all around only thinks about becoming famous outside of the tower or being more powerful even at the expense of the animals it’s just really sad because most of the animals only became friends with him because they thought he was nice but he’s not nice and doesn’t even have that bad of a past he just wasn’t able to go to the tower like every other person who wasn’t rich
He wasn't like this in the novel. In the novel he was more like a pushover, he was a bland character because it's mostly focused on the people around him and the way he changed their lives. In the novel he would give everything to them especially to Theo and Keung who would grow up really spoiled that a lot of readers got annoyed at them for taking advantage of mc's kindness. He needs to grow more or have more power, he needs to eat lots of things but because of Keung who likes to eat and the people around him, they always take almost all of the good things. He is selfish yes, but he doesn't step on the line.
WHY DOES HE ALWAYS APPEAR. Honestly i hope the king finds out
:) He has nothing worthy to do.
