the author tweeted that the final volume will be "significantly expanded" so i really hope we get at least another 6 pages for the final chapter. the ending felt extremely choppy. i think the author really had a vision but im not sure why they wrapped it up so poorly. either way im glad this crazy ride is finally over LOL.
im all for a slow burn romance but i hope this series doesnt drag out her abuse for 20 chapters. the "intimate" scenes are so uncomfortable to read, and the fl is drawn in objectifying tight clothing every chapter. (which makes no sense considering shes supposed to wear "hag" clothes...) i swear every chapter her body looks more ridiculous. but im hoping for a good series regardless...
just because she’s poor doesn’t mean she can’t look good ??
She’s literally wearing a long sleeve and jeans
She’s poor but doesn’t mean she ain’t bad asf lmao
they're talking about her unrealistic typical manhwa body.
their is nothing unrealistic about it.
There are girls that look like the fl sydney Sweeney is an example
I think you're missing the point. It may be uncomfortable with the intimate scenes, however these moments are crucial for depicting the difficulty of escaping an abusive relationship. The story's slow burn emphasizes how the ex-husband's lack of respect for her manifests over time. From the beginning, he pressures, coerces, or assaults her sexually. It a sign that he see women as sex objects rather than human beings.
In the recent chapter, he manipulates her into believing he doesn't need to have sex with her, despite his past assaults and claims like "I won't do that to you." This manipulation makes her feel increasingly obligated to comply, fearing worse treatment if she doesn't. One of the obstacles to recognizing chronic mistreatment in relationships is that most abusive men don't initially appear as abusers. They often exhibit good qualities such as kindness, warmth, and humor, particularly early in the relationship.
It have to be a slow burn. The manhwa takes its time to carefully illustrate this dynamic, rather than condensing it into a few chapters. If you feel uncomfortable with that fact then it a sign that it show the reality of an abusive relationship and how horrible it is. The ex-husband's comments about her clothes being baggy indicate his changed perception of her, seeing her as a reusable sex object despite any perceived flaws. If her body makes you uncomfortable, that might be a personal issue to consider.
put them side by side, sydney sweeney looks nowhere like how unrealistic manhwa girls are built like, its not that deep but im just saying
I mean yes Sydney’s chest isn’t that exaggerated im personally not reading too deep into it I think it’s just weird that you think the fl body is unrealistic that’s all
thanks for the summary but i already knew all of this LOL. just gonna add the uncomfortable part for me is the fact the sexualization of her character is supposed to be negative, yet the author draws her in extremely unrealistic clothing and proportions. anyone with tits knows thats not how clothes work, especially bc "stretched out" clothes dont hug u like that lol. iykyk im not gonna argue with anyone abt it i just think the stereotypical manwha body is gross in this context.
woobin's whole plan to embarrass her and get this revenge in this way is honestly so stupid. unless he's even dumber than i realized, he fully understands that suji was groomed into becoming a sociopath. even if he "destroys her life" she wont care, because she doesnt want to live either way. no matter what he does to her, hes not capable of really hurting her. unless woobin made a commitment to "humanizing" suji, and making her fully understand love/value living, he'll never win. shes fking crazy, and i love her for it.
i like how they both have a level of self awareness as to why they go as far as they do for their crushes. i hope they become a happy couple (≧∀≦)
so ur telling me the author of a long standing novel, the girl who tracked down her stalker, and someone who connected clues about her ex cheating suddenly goes braindead? so-ae is not at all supposed to be stupid, especially since she learned her lesson about ignoring the signs. feels like the author is intentionally dumbing her down to lead on the 2nd ml. unless the theory abt the ml's switching is true, i dont see why this misunderstanding has to continue. :/
Wdym switchinh the ML? Like Dohwa being the male lead all of a sudden?(￣∇￣")
yeah there's a fan theory that the novel so-ae is writing is foreshadowing the plot, if that's true then dohwa would become the ML. i feel like the author has been hinting towards it lately as well... but i feel like readers would freak out if the main couple broke up （￣へ￣）
Geez! I don't even know what to feel if that happens, they're both green flag. And honestly I'd be really happy if Soo Ae and Dowha ends up together but at the same time, I'd be depressed knowing the other ones gonna get hurt real bad ╥﹏╥
Ikr. How can I chose between Eunhyuk and Dohwa they are both soo good. I just want both of them to be happy and not get hurt.
atp i hope suji breaks the 2nd couple up cuz im tired of them taking up screentime doing absolutely nothing. so eager to see what the ml decides
i always skip when the second couple appears on screen, unless it's revealed that they have some relevance to the overall plotline and not just some feel good side story then I'll reread all their scenes. Currently i'm only looking forward to what woobin does at this point.
the face dohwa makes when she revealed she sought him out as a business opportunity :/ this trope is so lame and such a waste of dohwa and suae's characters. this series overall has become incredibly cliche, 107 chapters of wasted potential. we shouldve gotten a university arc or literally anything besides this dumbass love triangle. dropping until the author comes to their senses.
