If I thought my partner was cheating on me, I would not tolerate it like the character did. Come on...
I know he's beautiful but alabama hell naw. Get away little man
I find that usually with love rivals, the ML is the person who's honest about their feelings from the beginning. Even if they come off as a pervert, at least they're an open boom and they're not hiding it. (Difference between the guard and the prince of yu)
Also I really like the guard but I dislike the prince in that rape scene. Frustrated.
The emperor is different though. Love him in real life.
Mc: I love you.
Ml: I'm going to pretend to love you to get something.
Later
Ml: I never loved you.
Mc: how could you. I'm leaving.
Ml: I'm so sorry I realize i actually love you.
Guilty pleasure of a story indeed
lmao for me the pattern is
They together
Out of nowhere he gets amnesia and falls in love again
Seo Haim indeed saved the country by being cute. So cute!
