shoowop want to read (All 10)

The mc is just kind of annoying so far. If I could word it susinctly she needs to get over herself. She's not an awful person by any means, I know there's far worse out there, but getting pissy cos a convenience store worker is a little stilted and awkward are hardly traits of a likeable character. Especially when she talks about how the kindness of her old teacher had influenced her.
Not only that, but her story is this man's life lol. Agree with you completely
New APK update and now we just have to use the desktop layout with no option to change? What's the point in the app being available to mobile if the default is desktop layout?
Mangago have apk?
Didn't knew that we have appΣ( ￣□￣||)
And also, desktop is my fav lay out even I'm in mobile...
It's downloadable off the official site. And good for you, however it should still be an option like how it has been for the many updates and iterations they've made for it.
Have for a bit. It used to be available in the playstore but now they just have you download it off of their site if you search 'Mangago App'. However in its current state I wouldn't recommend, being unable to see a full page on screen makes for a poor experience.
To get the good things out of the way I enjoy the, loosely, period appropriate language used by everyone, feels far more like a period piece than most historical manhwa I've read. The art is also quite enjoyable.
The story itself... leaves much to be desired. It seems to be going for your somewhat standard guard x lord trope but misses, in my opinion, a lot of the intricacies that make that trope so enticing to read. (This could be an attempt at subversion that I just don't enjoy.)
As a reader I can't help but feel, suddenly, a little rushed by the pacing; like a lot is going on but not quite grounded.
Obviously, with it being so early on in the series, I can't fault it for not sharing all details that are yet to be revealed. But I do personally feel, I have not been given enough time with our leads to care or root for either Muyeon or Baeksa. Which is a little sad to say, seeing as they're basically the only characters the chapters have been focused on thus far.
I would say it’s more going for mortal human (Muyeon) x immortal being (Baeksa).
Each one have some hardships to overcome but slowly they will see that the only solution is work together,
I could see how that might be compelling but I stand by the guard x lord.
Mainly because that's how they are both treating their relationship. Baeksa is quick to dismiss a human servant, putting responsibilities and desires of his own and of an imoogi before anything else, and Muyeon; the guilt riddled but selfish guard who cannot decide between duty and self-interest.
The only reason why Muyeon is guarding Baeksa is 'cause of his ties to Baeksa's ascension.
Baeksa isn't a lord, either. He's more akin to a lesser god since he's supposed to be an immortal dragon. He doesn't have human status so he gets what he wants via deadly force that humans cannot combat against.
The plot is good enough if you don't try to compare it to the 50,000 other period pieces that center around a lord and his lesser.
Hope that helps.
In their social, human, context Baeksa is a lord though. Even with the rumours and stories that follow him he is treated as such.
Without comparison it's still boring, which is fine for anyone to think, just as it is fine for anyone to enjoy it. Just in case you needed clarification.
