n9 fuck8ng way this is the manhwa that avtually pulls such a crazy yet well-known but always poorly executed plottwist like this, on ONLY its seventh chapter
im on the first chapter and WHAT??? IK THE CULTURE IS PROBABLY DIFF, BUT GIRL, SAVE UR SISTER OMG. U GREW UP W HER FOR AT LEAST 16 YRS, EVEN IF SHE'S A BITCH, DONT U LIKE, FEEL MILDLY BAD THAT SHE'S GETTING GROOMED ??
Read up to chap 4 please
yea she's a bitch, she also got groomed, the two can coexist unfortunately. if it were my sister, even if i was absolutely pissed at her, i'd still be more mad at the ex fiance for being a disgusting creep and the dad for encouraging it
Yk I was wondering why they added the detail that the FL reincarnated with her memories.... This was probs one of the reasons
Even if she wants to something, can she really so anything? There probably isn't a law about being with someone underage, so can't take the legal route. The dad doesn't mind, the sister wants to take everything from her so she won't listen to her. The people around fl probably don't see it as a problem. So what can she do?
Agree agree!! Unless the little sister has a change of heart
honestly, if i really think about it, i don't expect her to do anything, i just expect her to acknowledge how messed up her sister's route is, because if she doesn't then that means she doesn't think this is weirdly pedophilic and messed up. i get that this world/society doesn't seem to find these relationships pedophilic in nature, but she grew up in a society that DID think that way. like how is the author going to paint her with the backstory of a modern woman who had a lifetime of modern ideals, and then not have her acknowledge how fucked up it is for her sister to be encouraged to marry an old-ass man who is her older sister's partner? because i was completely okay with the idea of hating the younger sister who IS entitled and a bitch, but i'm just so disturbed by MC's internal dialogue that doesn't seem to acknowledge the grooming aspect of their relationship. if she grew up in a society where teenagers aren't seen as children and rather as adults with the brain development as one, i would've been way more lenient on MC for holding her sister accountable like she's an adult. but her sister isn't an adult, and MC should know better. like everyone kept saying she stole her fiance, and yeah she did, but also like, that is a full-ass dude who is currently shacking it up with a kid, and the fact that MC doesn't really ever think from that perspective at all literally makes me so distressed. i don't expect her to hold sympathy for her sister or to not see her sister as her personal villain, and i don't care if she hates her sister either- it's the fact that she had a whole lifetime growing up in a society that already criminalized pedophilia and grooming, and doesn't really seem to see her sister has a victim of either of thse actions. like i'm bothered by this because i think it reflects what type of character she is, someone who doesn't see a minor being groomed by a full-ass adult as a victim of that relationship. because you can be a victim and be a horrible person, but from her mindset she only ever really sees her sister as the main antagonist and her partner as collatoral of her selfishness, rather than the two of them having full autonomy in both of their actions, and her sister as a child and therefore the brain, hormonal, and functioning of a child.
im also realizing this is long, and im sorry LMAOO. it makes me seem super heated/intense, but tbh, i'm just a rambler so half of this is just me repeating the same ideas rip
UGH i love representation of ppl who aren't teenagers or young adults. like even the twerp is mid-thirties, the sword saint + cleaver dude are old as hell and sure act like it (sword saint, TOTALLY clocked her as those grandmas with just her pride, and i love it), and MC primarily interacts with people of that age range, and it in a pretty fluid way given how he's old at heart, as well. i love how MC really feels like for once, a regressed elderly MC (since i feel like other old MCs who became younger always act really brazen/young or just senile, which is fun and all, but we rarely get this kind of mature, tricky and experienced regressed MCs who feel like those mischevious grandpas).
Fr. I feel like this writer actually understands how people at certain age act and has put that characterisation into this story. Usually in other murim manhwas it's the oldies acting like they're in puberty(〜￣△￣)〜
he's like when kids in their prepubescent, hormonal phases have a favorite babysitter
the previous most recent comment was made last ywar, holy crap
bruh im teaching metric and US customary units to a bunch of kids rn, and it's so bad. i wish america would just drop the customary units LOL. ngl, this author is onto smth
also the way this novel has both dollar bills and gold coins, like stick to a currency
2 currencies can coexist, no?
ya, but it's like in the same society, it's pretty uncommon to see two currencies made up of very different materials used on the same level of trade. like even if two currencies can coexist in the same culture, if one is made out of a drastically cheaper material than the other, then it's basically impossible for the majority of people to use both of them interchangeably in the same culture, since the rate of exchange would be WAY too different.
bc then the rich gangster trying to take over the herb gatherer's land is either giving this dude like slips of paper that cost money even if they're in bands, or this entire story is implying that a stack of paper cash is going to be at the same exchange rate as a bag of gold coins, when one is reproducable at a cheap level of material and printing process while the other requires way more labor intensive gathering and reproduction.
Ohhh thanks for the explaining
ya np! i totally get how without an example, my original comment about currency might've came off as odd.
honestly im in love with the guard friend. he's so funny with his dad and MC. i love serious sidekicks who end up as slapstick
