people don’t like the ml because he’s leading her on. not bc he’s being honest and saying he’s not committed but by confusing her and acting like he does want to be in a relationship.

THIS! there's nothing wrong with being honest and even being in casual relationships like that. You do you. It's completely fine to reject someone, you don't owe anyone feelings. But to intentionally lead someone like this with "I don't like you but I don't don't like you" is a pretty shitty thing to do. Especially when the other party is that serious. Not saying you can't be friends with them but come on, set a clear boundary

yall hating on gaeun when she’s the most interesting character. looks like she can sense spirits, has no memory of her life prior to being in the village, we don’t even know if her dad is her dad either. whatever her appearance means, it’s at the root of what is going on in the village. her being nauseous right now might mean that the “mother” isn’t a protector spirit but something more sinister. mc is getting revenge sure but why was gaeun brought to the village and why does she have no life before that.

i actually really enjoy the characters in this story. they are so different from normal manhwas in that they all have a range of interests and emotions not tied to ml and fl. i’ll admit i doubted the ml in ch 1 but he is trying his best to be better i think. even in his responses to olive on why he started classes he admitted to caring about the beast men and respects those around him. it looks like his disease and lack of an upbringing turned him into a puppet tyrant all to get olives love. i also love olive, a smart fool with a good heart and funny too.
her body is so tea like ml needs to get it together or she needs a real man who can handle alladat
