I love a good hate to love romance, it's honestly my favorite but I think it was around ch.18 that i became frustrated. First things first, I don't like jaeyoung or at least his personality is stupid. Like I get why he was mad at Sangwoo in the beginning but he didnt do the work so you get an F. Then he bullies him like a child and wonders why Sangwoo wouldn't wanna do shit with him. Ergo the stupid part since he should but then ofc he likes him so then that validates why jaeyoung doesn't get why Sangwoo is mad at him. I honestly didnt get anything that happened after ch.19. Like yea okay we get it Sangwoo got used to the time with jaeyoung becoming attached but in love or like him and shit! I feel like Sangwoo falling for jaeyoung should have taken longer. I really am just supper confused/frustrated with this like I can't be the only one that thinks this kinda doesn't make sense. Theres other stuff too but I give up and now only read this for the smexy stuff.
I was super excited and really happy with this manhwa up until about ch.7. I really live the idea for this story and what they were going for at the very being but I was sorely disappointed when I kept on reading and yes ik this is kinda dramatic considering theres only 9 translated chapters out. The first thing I was disappointed with was the fact that they weren't consistent with the King/male lead being a shitty ass person slash dad. I can tell he is like this because his previous wife (the blonde with green eyes) prob because she did bad shit to him and this became distrustful of women or something, like scarred him in some way. However, his level of asshole-ness in the first chapter towards his daughter should be consistent or at least not called "been doing a bad job" like sure it's not like she's being abused but the is being emotionally neglected and her father doesn't even seen to care that much about her being bullied previous ly by the villainess character. Now what happened with the bunny was not him caring about her but him being curois about the female lead. Anyways i would have preferred if the author had just write him as nervous or didnt know how to act around his daughter thus his actions being misunderstood. Instead he is a asshole fully away of how he and others have treated his daughter but it's okay all the sudden and now there trying to make him this not shitty guy but that doesn't excuse ANY of the crap hes done no matter how fuckin handsome he is. It really nust feels like the author abandoned/forgot that he's literally the rute of all the problems. Which bring me to my second problem and this will be a shirt statement. Why the fuck does everyone think that the female lead is so bad when this has all happened because of the male lead. 3rd and finale main problem which was intended at the end of the 9th chapter, how and why in the fuck is she even falling for this asshole just because he said he would get a side chick. Like lol hes a doing what's expected of every husband how fucking heart fluttering. Sweet heart why would you become intested in him because of that. Shes done nothing but talk shit about him, hes done LITERALLY NOYHING BUT CAUSE HER PAIN, and neglect his daughter whom she adores but hey when he says he wont get a side chick that's pretty fuckin hot. Other then this unnecessary rant I actually really like this story alot.
The only think I can say is just keep reading, because I can’t answer point one without jumping into a heavy spoiler, with your second point, let’s remember that yes even though he was at fault because of how he first treat the stepmother by being cold and not wanting anything with him, the stepmom went out of her way and torment everyone including the staff and stepdaughter, so the new stepmom has to deal with the way people now see her because of the past behavior, and for your third point I don’t think she is having feeling for him, as I’m reading the novel and nothing with feeling has happen, she was mostly in a way embarrassed
I would've agreed with you(on the beginning and middle part) if I hadn't read the spoilers yet but his behavior is justified. Like my dude was RAPED. Obviously he got trauma from that. Obviously he doesn't love his daughter.(He does, but he doesn't know how to) Obviously he doesn't know how to act and be caring towards a kid from the person he got rape from. Like, let's change the roles. If it's a girl who got raped, we would be crying and forgiving her for acting that way. Obviously, she got trauma for that so we can't blame her for her actions. His an asshole, but I can never blame a person who got raped for her/his/their actions.
I'm usually biased towards the fl, but come on. The dude was rape. His actions maybe stupid, but I can it's justified.
I dont care about the shitty things hes done and I already guessed that the blonde haired green eyed chick did some really bad shit to him like kill his wife or as you have said rape him. I'm just mad that the author made him out to be this stone cold person from the first chapter and he acts like it, now I dont have a prob with them justifying his shitty behavior or making him into a better person. I'm just saying it felt kinda random and happened really fast. Now with the hole girl/guy rape shit that I wasnt even thinking about.... I dont like to compare pain and I'm sure both are extreme lly horrifying but a girl being raped is completely the fuck different from a guy unless its guy on guy. Wether it was a girl or guy being raped I would have the same reaction although because I am female I would resonate more with the girl.lastly and honestly something I dont care to much about character wise I guess, is that no matter what anyone has been through in there life there action are NEVER justified but what they have been through because although what they have been through has scared them what they those to do afterwards is all that persons decision.
In that day an age all a women has as kinda shown in that one chapter where that old guy is trying to get the king/male lead to marry someone else, is her husbans love or affection etc, her husband just out right ignores her and tells her that he doesn't want her. Tell me that would fuck you up a lil bit. Now that doesn't explain her shitty behavior but theres also no way them nosy ass maids or somebody doesn't know how he treats her. Like the women has tried to kill her self in order to get his attention and they still think shes this w.e idek. Anyways as explained in the story this made her very insecure and the lady done lost it and I'm pretty sure everything would have been fine if he didn't treat her like this. I think she was pretty sane before hand.
Sorry if this comes out as rude or aggressive. I copy and pasted it from another reply because your answers are similar l.I dont care about the shitty things hes done and I already guessed that the blonde haired green eyed chick did some really bad shit to him like kill his wife or as you have said rape him. I'm just mad that the author made him out to be this stone cold person from the first chapter and he acts like it, now I dont have a prob with them justifying his shitty behavior or making him into a better person. I'm just saying it felt kinda random and happened really fast.
That's his literal characters. He got raped,he gets match up and is force to marry this woman who is obsessed with him. Again, a WOMAN. He is scared of them. I understand the part where you said the difference between a girl and a dude being rape is big but trauma is still trauma. I believe he got rape when he was still 11-13(??) For my opinion, I can forgive him. Though he's a shitty characters. His childish. I also don't like how the author made his character. Like I would love it if he was just cold,a tsundere kinda dude towards his daughter. But he's just straight up cold and always on guard when the fl is near. But instead the author made him all sloppy and childish and kinda overreacting everything. And for my opinion, I can't blame him neglecting her(emotionally) because just think about it. His daughter was literally made from his trauma. I just can't blame the dude honestly. Having a trauma is just shitty and scary. No matter how many years you've experienced that trauma, you will never be the same. So yeah, sorry I can't agree with you on that part.
Again, it's because of his trauma that's why he rejected the idea of getting another wife. He's scared of women. She's already there, so I don't think he can handle another crazy woman. But yeah, I can understand why she turned out that way because the dude didn't try or anything and just straight up neglected her, like atleast be professional and just act. But let's not forget that he was raped. So it was expected that he didn't try to get close to her since women is literally his trauma. Honestly, it's misunderstanding on top of a misunderstanding. At the end of the day, it's because is his trauma that everything lead to more trouble things. My opinion still stands, I can't blame him.
It's not like she was always obsessed with him and in that day in age all a women has is her husband. In not justifying all the crazy shit shes done in just saying he broke her. I understand that he is scared of women or somethin and that's why he treats her like shit but that doesn't excuse his bullshitry. I'm also not saying he cant be forgiven but once again this is less about the characters and more about how the author fucked his character development up i guess. Also maybe I wasn't clear enough when I replied but I also believe that no matter the gender trauma is trauma as well, don't forget your the one who decided to compare or even mention the opposite gender. However, yeah I completely understand him not being able to be a father to her and treat her shitty to a certain extent because of his trauma. I just feel like the author completing writes off and made a joke of how he has hurt his daughter and wife. Then excuses/justifying what he has done to them because of his trauma making it look like "well shit does it really matter that he emotional abused his daughter and let his wife do so much worse? I mean it's fine cuz he went through shit." Yes, ofcourse he can be forgiven and can redeem himself as a husband or more importantly as a father. He really isnt a bad guy but the author made him exactly that and worse then makes him seem like this sweet not asshole guy. At least in other stories its either a misunderstanding or there actually assholes, not to mention the proper progression of ther character development. Uuuugh man i never ment to go this long, I was just saying that the author did him werid.
I mean yeah, I totally understand where your coming from. It's like one of those manhua romance stories where the ml is just unreasonable dumb and childish but they somehow have a reason for it, but it would have been better if the author did some effort but instead they just went with the ml being overreacting,childish selfish kinda person/character. The fl's actions is reasonable(though I'm not justifying her), because the dude really did her dirty. But then again, can't blame her. Though the fl was really stupid for being obsessed with him even though he already showed her 0 interest from day 1. And sorry, I also didn't meant this to be a long ass discussion ┐( ˘_˘)┌
Yo I'm not saying your blaming him. We're having a discussion, and I'm only showing what my opinions are please chill. And wdym by this isn't his trauma or what he went through?? You said your opinion and why you hate his character for being an ass, so I gave you info as to why his being an ass. And again, in my opinion, can't blame the dude. Trauma is real shit. I really hope no one experiences SA. It's literally the worse.
I dont hate him and sorry I get heated sometimes. But what I meant when I said this wasnt about him I was referring to how I'm not really trying to focus on him or even the other main characters but more on how the author did him, the story, and other characters dirty escepially character development wise.
I know what your saying when you spell SA but in don't know what the itself abrriviation means. Also then I guess you just connect more with the character because I haven't and hope I never will and ofc I would never wish it upon someone else or say that what they experienced wasnt horrible. Like i just said I really wasnt trying to make this so much about the character and more about what the author did with the charcaters.
Yeah, just like what I said. The author didn't really put much effort into making his characters. Like if we forget about his trauma for a min, his character is dumb asf. And the fl too. The dude already showed no interest but somehow she got obsessed with him. Maybe because she's so pretty and she couldn't accept that he didn't like her which made her like that. All in all, this is just like one of those manhua stories. The story is all over the place and low-key rush. Like before she doesn't like him, but all of the sudden she's blushing.
At the end, this is not a very well made story.
I dont even feel like explaining why this is so basic to the point that basic doesn't even describe this manhwa. There are a great number of unexplained parts of this story and it all together just not good. Like there was a good idea for the story and I can see what they wanted to achieve but it's so half assed that theres just no what they wanted would happen. It's honestly kinda funny how much story and sense is missing from this manhwa
I feel it too, the story seems off at some points. Also, I don't like how she's leading him on and using the excuse white lie. The boy has obviously imprinted on you so she should be smart enough to not betray that or give him false hope. Just because they're kids doesn't mean they won't feel betrayed by someone they were attached to, at every other reincarnation manga
i don't think any of us were ready for the majesty of this chapter..... and honestly,i'm expecting them both to die but like i'm okay with that because like then there gonna get reincarnated, meet again crossing paths on some fucking road or we, fuck, and then show us a cute ass panel of them smiling together saying ''the end". That would kinda be perfect in my opinion. Like im so fucking happy with this manhwa and i ain't gonna lie it comes pretty close to the majesty of "KillingStalking"and i know its only going to get better and better.
I love everything about this so far and lol what a great misdirect.
