This manhwa is very toxic but entirely it is just Caesar being damn toxic and cruel. His childhood doesnt justify anything he did. Caesar is a russian mafia which known for being very cruel and you dont mess with them. You could see how Caesar's dad turned him into an animal to the point he has no empathy. He living in survival mode every second bcs everyone wants to kill him even his dad. I am so frstrtaed with Caesae character when he said he loves lee won but a slight mispoke in lee won would turn him very cruel.
Despite that, you can see how Lee won are aware that Caesar is a red flag but he is scared to leave and cause he loves Caesar so bad that he wants to marry him. I tried to justify why the author made Caesar character this way. But Caesar is just a cruel person. What I might see is that Caesar is not in love with Lee won but more like obsession yk. From the beginining, you can see how the author actually made Caesar very cruel when he tried to shoot that child. It just shows you that you dont mess with russian mafia. (Look up news if you dont get it) I think the author maybe try to approach in that direction? I have no idea.
If you cant stand the story just stop reading but its not always dark, skip the smut, and there are funny plot and quite okay too. Not everyone support violence and toxic relationship, this is a very dark mafia manhwa. If you can discern reality and fiction, i dont think its a problem. The author made it clear that he/she created Caesar as a very cruel, no empathy, animal-like instinct for survival. And this russsian mafia trust no one even tho their business partner. There are more mafia or powerful person manhwa that much more worse than this manhwa. And not even mentioning that tjose manhwa have stupid uke too. But Lee won here very much aware of his situation. He know he cant get out of this.
