1. The main point of this webtoon is the parent-child relationship between Clade and Athy. Its the hook
2. Jeanette had a decent side character role for the first part of the series. There was a mystery surrounding her, but Athy was warming up to her at the same time. Then Mr. McRedflag's face gives her that ribbon.
3. The actions with the ribbon lead into seasons 2 & 3. Which wouldn't be so bad if there was a glaring issue that goes this webtoon.
4. The retroactive spoilers, the memories coma, and Claude thing happen in the Light novel with Claude waking up when our magic ML came back. The big hook returned a long while ago.
5. Returning to Jeanette once more, since the webtoon is in original territory now. Seemingly the webtoon artist has made Jeanette the author's pet. Her role in the story is exceeding what it needs to be. Her naive and innocent nature is fine; the issue is that the new canon wants to push that while also having her constantly manipulated by Mr. McRedflag's face and crew.
6. The story's pacing has been thrown out the window, and quite a few readers are fed up with it. They waited a long time for Claude to get his memories back, only to have him be in an anime coma.
Keeping these pointers in mind, the clear issue and the one that people should be pissed at is the webtoon artist going off the rails in a way that buried the hook and tried to fill the space with situations involving Jeanette and other things that are just making people more frustrated.
The reason why hate is pilled on Jeanette is cause while the reader cant see the author they can certain see Jeanette and the issues she causes by proxy.
TDLR: The webtoon went downhill because of the webtoons artist's actions which are only highlighted when Jeanette does stuff as of late. So by association, she getting vented at. (also some bad writing in general but i wont go into that.)

I stayed away for months so I can see some progress but god almighty, I wasted two chapters reading about Jeanette and her thoughts and her lack of awareness AND HER PRETENTIOUS INNOCENCE.
I am starting to hate this webtoon.

Some of you sound ridiculous when u say "if he didnt like it he would have said "stop"",,,guys....someone doesnt have to say No for something to mean No. "I dont know" means NO. "Wait a minute" means NO. "Hold on" means NO. All of these things show apprehension and when somebody says them in such a situation like sex, you listen and you reassure them because theyre vulnerable and since it was his first time he was probably scared. Come on guys, this is basic consent and decency.
They have every right to be upset about it, please dont tell people how to feel. Youre also allowed to believe that the consent was enough. But please dont say silly things just because it may annoy you. Theres a time and place to be mad about things and people simply wanting more reassurance from him is not something to be mad at, i believe its a fair point and i would've liked to see more of it myself. Its a vulnerable situation and comforting your partner is important so that is what i and others would have preferred. If you were fine with it, okay then, cool. Theres no problem.
I feel like you guys sometimes look for things to be mad about unnecessarily. I really enjoy this manhwa, please dont ruin it by creating a hostile environment. Now please have the greatest day on the planet and have fun

AND THE APOLOGY. this is where i realised "oh so he's irredeemable" in regards to jihyun. throughout the entire apology, he just made excuses and justifications for his rape "i just loved you so much" "i was anxious that you liked other people" "i did that because i liked you so much" "i will wait until you forgive me" "this is unfair" - it actually makes me quite sick. at this point, i genuinely don't think he is a redeemable character and that this apology is selfish and childish. i felt so, so fucking bad for chiwoo throughout this whole manwha, but the ending killed me. he had to sit there and explain to his ex best friend, his rapist how badly his life had been fucked up. he had to talk him through it and he did it politely. its disgusting and i absolutely hated jihyun for it. i think the author did a fantastic but vivid job of showing how terrified chiwoo really was of jihyun, and it made it so awful but heartbreaking to read.
i've seen a lot of people sympathising with jihyun and saying they wish he would get someone who loved him. i, bluntly, do not. i don't want rapists to be happy. i don't want abusers to be happy. everyone is mad as jihyuns dad for being abusive, no one is sympathising with him because he's an abuser. well, so is jihyun. i don't care if he was abused as a child - that's no excuse and it does not wash away or excuse the terror he inflicted upon chiwoo. as soon as someone takes the choice to inflict pain and cruelty upon someone else, they forfeit the right for happiness, and in my opinion, breathable air :). i don't want the fucker happy, i want him in jail. rapists can choke, thats the hill i will die on.

Both him and Jeanette are very pitiful characters.
Jeanette because she has been fed a lie since birth to make her a strategic pawn. Even her conception was not stemmed from the love of her parents but their malice and twisted nature that led to them experimenting with black magic. Even her eye color is an illusion (the natural colour is green).
Jeanette wants so much to be "loved" , she bases her entire existence on and dreams of a "happy family" with two people she thinks are her dad and sister. Not understanding from the reader's (accurate) POV she is more a hinderance than actual "family" to them.
Her involvement in their life causes nothing but pain and misery. We know this from the original events in the novel and the current events occurring.
Therefore, it's understandable why she is disliked by many readers.
Jeanette doesn't understand the suffering caused just for her seeking out this delusional fantasy stemmed from the conniving whims of those fuelling it.
To fulfil her purpose in life of being a pawn, for the ambition and greed of her foster parents and her mother.
She wants so badly to believe in the lie she has been told of her origin and the fantasy "family reunion". Since, she is a lonely and lets be honest a pretty unremarkable child.
In a way Jeanette is greedy too. Although, naively so, because she desires to have what isnt hers even at the expense of breaking up claude and athy's relationship. Even if she may not be self aware of it. We know what she is capable of. It's why readers mostly dislike her and want her gone. We already know what happened to the MC in the novel when Jeanette got her "dream".
Claude is pitiful because, out of all the miserable memories and experiences he had in his life. the most heart breaking ones is when he was the happiest with Diana.
And the suffering of her death and memory of her, causes a worse pain than the abuse from he received from the empress as a child , the betrayal from his brother and ho fiance.
Killing his brother whom he once cared for etc.
Out of All the memories he chose to sell his soul for to banish, he chose his happiest.

And if you look properly on her definition of being "ALONE" I think is just pure selfishness coz if you think of Athy in the first timeline that's what you really call "ALONE" she can't even go near her own Father without being threatened, she doesn't have any friends and only Lily but even she can't do anything to save Athy.
So I think our Princess Jeanette here is much more fortunate than our FL, she got to live a lavish life in the first timeline and still got away from misfortune in the present timeline. She should be thankful no one is threatening her to be killed and still has friends she could rely on.
Sorry let's just have her get away with being pitiful and I don't hate her vice versa,
it's just FACTS.

There's nothing "lovely" about The Lovely Princess, not even the fake princess herself. The story is told from Jennette's perspective which is why it has a happy tone but we all know how ditzy Jennette really is and misread the atmosphere around her and made herself into a "princess" like she states that she wanted to in this chapter. Her kind of "lovely" is cheap and selfish. I honestly felt bad for her when Ijekiel rejected her but at the same time, I wish he'd done it sooner (and kinder) so that she wouldn't be all up in her head all the time and learn to live in reality. This girl doesn't even question the strange man who randomly shows up at her home. She states herself that there's something different/off about him but continues to spill secrets to him regardless. She's desperate to be a "lovely princess" but is jealous of Athy despite ignoring her situation in the previous timeline....this whole mentality is really messed up. It's a good thing Athy still cares for her but it's understandable why she'd want to stay away from the person who brought nothing but disaster to her in her previous life.
On a side note, season 2's ending was too abrupt and barely accomplished anything. I would have much preferred it if the whole amnesia thing was done and over with and we could move the plot along something more interesting like the confrontation between Claude and his fake brother.

she doesn't know she is bringing harm to them, doesn't know that claude isnt her real dad and athy isnt her real sister. because of everything listed above, i can't really hate her... BUT from athy's first life, we know jeanette was acknowledged by claude and lived the life of her dreams. athy was suffering, and jeanette chose to ignore it and focus on her own happiness. in this 1st timeline, athy died, claude died (probably), and jeanette's happy family got shattered
the future and happiness that jeanette is chasing brings ruin to not only claude and athy, but also herself. and i hate the fact that she has no clue about the devastation she will inevitably bring if she keeps chasing this dream of hers. as readers who've been seeing things from athy's point of view, we know athy had been working hard for her father's attention, grew to love him, and how she suffered in all her lives so far, so obviously when jeanette appears all kind and cute and innocently wanting to play 'house'.... (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
ALSO because we know what's going on, jeanette's entire character seems just like a plot driver (towards the bad end). because of the things she doesn't know, she brings harm to all the characters we love, and does so with a pure heart and without restraint. on the other hand we have athy, who knows what happened in the 1st timeline, knows jeanette is poison to claude, knows jeanette isnt even her biological family, yet when she first starts meeting jeanette athy is too nice to distance herself from her. she felt bad turning jeanette down despite knowing jeanette had something to do with black magic and once took (or has the potential to take) everything away from her. even now, athy has to watch claude call for jeanette, and live with uncertainty because the love that she had is suddenly taken away from her ARGH
basically hate how things are set up... jeanette can relentlessly chase her dream of her happy family knowing absolutely nothing... athy has to suffer from knowing too much... [rest]

This annoys me so much, and even in the original story, I hate the fact that she did nothing To help Athy. She saw that she was alone, and not well treated by her father but she just ignored it ! She just cried in her fiancee's arm and continued her life when athy died. Even the fact that Claude was tired, and sick because of black magic, she just said "I am here" without searching the truth about her "father" and Why he was feeling so bad everytime. I find her quite insensitive, as if she decides not to see the disturbing things that would hurt her. I understand she wants To have time with her "father", but I dont know, she is just irritating (and at the same time I'm feeling a bit guilty to say that about a character who did not really do anything wrong ╥﹏)
It's not that I hate her, she is just too pure, and blind to everything and I would like her to start thinking about Athy's feelings when she clearly sees that Claude and her have problems together and that she just decides to have time with him when she is absent.
Ah, I Feel calmer now and what I wrote does not make any sense, but this character is really difficult to describe in my opinion, not trully bad, but also too much in her own world to make me like her.
Sorry for my english, I am clearly not bilingual (▰˘◡˘▰)

If the excuse is because this was based on a novel and giving Jeanette more substance would change it too much, well...didn’t that happen already? It already strayed from the original novel. Even Athy and Claude are different now. (I also have my gripes about the way Athy’s been written in the comic but maybe next time.) The excuse that Jeanette is like this because she's being manipulated is valid, but I feel like this also could have been done better.
OR maybe it was intentional. Maybe there would be a twist later where Jeanette’s arc and unknowingly selfish actions would be relevant. Maybe Jeanette got so much exposure to make us feel frustrated about a "main" character that exists to be loved even without doing anything. Maybe it's THAT meta. I'm trying to think this way to give the author the benefit of the doubt but tbh, every update just makes me sad. :(
Tldr: Part of our hate towards Jeanette is because of our frustration that she could have been written to be more than just an irritatingly naive character.
PS. There was also that strange part where Jeanette suddenly kinda turned yandere so I DON’T KNOW what the hell was up with that. Her character confuses the shit out of me.

The moment this story decided to throw off to the void the main reason why many people loved this webtoon was the moment people started hating on Jeanette.
Yes that hate is unreasonable but because Jeanette basically represent a wall preventing Athy and Claude to become family again is why so many of us just wants her gone. As in, completely wiped from the story because she offers nothing but unecassary drama with just her very existence.
People might say--"oh but Jeanette is spicing up this story! Stop hating on her" Sure, tell that to thousands of readers who literally wants her offed. We used to tolerate Jeanette, some might've even liked her. But because of this mini plot, that tolerance is completely gone.
