I mean, he just seems like another guy who can’t stand to be told no by a girl he wants so he tries to wear her down until she accepts him. (Tbh this is my most disliked type of ML because it’s too close of a parallel to toxic guys I’ve encountered: guys that think women owe them affection just because they want her)
She rejected him multiple times with a solid reason, like not being able to get over her husband and he tells her that she’s just not able to get over a “childish first love”? Also him saying that her only remembering good things about her husband is unnatural, but I feel like if someone really lost their true love, it would be realistic to mostly remember the good over the bad in hindsight (also they were technically still in the honeymoon phase). Also dude, you’ve never been married or in love so how would you even know whether that’s normal or not? Like for 97% of the story he doesn’t know anything about her dead husband but he constantly tries to talk shit about a dead guy he doesn’t know a thing about just to have sex with a woman = trash personally.
He’s not the worst ML I’ve encountered in these stories by any means, but he constantly demeans this woman’s feelings just because he wants her to hurry up and get over her ex so he can f*** her. Like she DOESN’T OWE YOU ANYTHING. Then they tried to casually defame the character of the dead husband in a couple pages to somehow justify this toxic behavior by the ML. So if her husband had been a good guy which justified her being unable to move on, then we can agree that’s he toxic?
Um. No.
Totally agree with you. Toxic is the best adjective to describe this character. Blackmail, bribery, tons of unwanted gifts; I think that is called "Stalking," which is apparently perfectly alright, as long as the stalker is sexy and rich. For a one-night-stand playboy, he also has all of the endearing qualities of the incel.
My other grip is the brother. His attitude seems to be, "Sell yourself to this a**hole for my sake, since I completely f***ed up the finances of our company that I won't let anyone else touch." Having a sister myself, I think he should be thrown into a shark tank with a string of pork chops around his neck.
First, your partner should never place themselves in the position that we just witnessed Jin and Alex in. Also Alex showed up with a straight French kiss and Jin didn’t even correct him. Idk if Alex is from America, but nowhere in the continent of America does anyone greet each other with French kisses. Also Jin, don’t complain about your relationship to the person you partner has stated they feel inferior to, wtf?
Hamura is more patient than me. The moment Alex started that lunch trying to condemn Hamura’s feeling for Jin and stating that Jin had it harder (like bro you don’t even know the first thing about Hamura’s struggle without Jin), I would have immediately cut that off and told him to mind his own fucking business. Then just walked away because his opinion wouldn’t have mattered to me in the slightest.
right? Humra have some strong patient to even listen to this gay fuckboy 0-0
Seriously. I can even see why he sat through that. And fuck Jin for making his partner feel like shit. Jin was totally about to cheat if Hamura didn’t walk in.
Jin was already cheating but he would’ve fucked Alex if Hamura didn’t walk in
You know what, you’re right! He was making out with him and everything. I can’t. When mangas hit points like this, it’s better if Hamura moves on and Jin realizes his mistakes

Don’t get me wrong, this is great and I’m going to read until the end. But I still can’t get past the fact that she ends up with her brother.
WHO TF IS OKAY BEING PHYSICALLY INTIMATE WITH SOMEONE WHO LOOKS IDENTICAL TO THEIR SIBLING??
That just hits way too close to incest vibes for me. They would have been great as just close siblings—because adopted family is still family. I also dislike literature that minimizes the bonds of adopted children—it’s super toxic to push the idea that sibling not being related by blood means they aren’t real family. BUT please still read because the story is actually great.
OH WTFFF????? Yooooooo I totally understand where you’re coming from and I agree with you... damn I thought she’d end up with the blue haired kid or something you know??? Well from the novel’s cover it seems that all three brothers like her or something...which is weird
Which brother does she end up with??
Eugene
I knew this is gonna happen without reading any spoilers. It gave the vibe from the beginning.
Hi where did you get the info? Did you read the novel?
WHATTTT?!?! WHAT HAPPENED TO BLUE HAIR GUYY??
I gathered info from spoilers
Yeah if you google hard enough, you can get spoilers for it all.
Oh wow, kinda saw that coming but I really thought she'd end up with the blue haired guy lol
I like Dongha. I feel like Sanho needs someone who’s going to push and nudge him here and there out of his comfort zone or Sanho would never fall for anyone or open up. Opposites attract. Dongho is everything that Sanho isn’t. He’s stable, seem capable at almost everything, not impulsive (usually), and calm which was all things that Sanho wished he had in his life and has never really known. I like this couple a lot actually. They are completely different from the first couple and I like that the author isn’t giving us the same story twice.
Okay so she better end up with the emperor from the other nation and that’s the “emperor” that is being referred to in the title.
SPOILERS SOMEONE PLS
because if she ends up with Kiris, I swear I might just give up on my fellow women in the romance genre and read straight gay lit from here on out
Idk where guys came up with the bizarre misconception that girls don’t like men moaning, but this is definitely not true. Just like you like it, so do we. Just food for thought, guys.
true. in my case, it's even better if the guy moans.
holy shit (⊙…⊙ ) umm that's cool I hope someone will be aggressive like that to me man i've always wanted to be dominated by a female HAHAHA this is like the webtoon just give it to me I Hope My Juliet will be aggressive hahaha
Sad that his university was like this. No one gives a f*** where I just graduated university. But also my university was basically the size of a city so no one paid attention to a stranger’s business. Also the U.S. is pretty progressive so IF you had a sugar daddy most people wouldn’t blink an eye lol
Throughout all the fluff, I forgot how crazy sunbae can occasionally be. Like how Hosik’s mom was like “how did you get in?” And he casually answers that he had a spare key (and there no way Hosik gave him one)
You know what. I just started rereading and ch. 5 when sunbae takes Hosik home for the first time, Hosik gets hit by his mom for losing his keys and y’all....I just know this mf stole them
This story can be really cute and fluffy but that mf sunbae is insane
Honestly, no truer words have ever been spoken. The author just casually wrote a sensitive, caring psychopath hahaha
Oh my god.....by shit. That's actually a new level of wow
1) why would you have a kid near a cliff and not hold his hand!??? I’m not blaming her but c’mon. Even if he ran away, they were too close to that cliff to begin with. The way my anxiety is set up, I can’t even stand to see little kids walk alone in parking lots without holding hands with an adult
2) DUDE HOW TF could you leave your weeping wife at the funeral alone. That was the moment of truth to support her.
3) I heard the excise but you had NO business hugging a naked woman. (Did he actually confirm whether he slept with her or not)
4) why would you take her parents word on her not wanting to see you when you know they don’t like you. You had 5 more years to seek her out and it took her coming back to you
BUT overall, I actually think this was a decent read so I’m pleasantly shocked
Omg yeaaaa, mostly the part where he was hugging the naked person, I mean y was she naked, I kinda get y he was but why was she, and the fact he didn’t clarify it right away when she mentioned it was like whattttttt (╬￣皿￣)凸 (︶︿︶)＝凸
they put the kid grave on a cliff they took the new kids near a cliff and let them run off on their own like really bitch (╬￣皿￣)凸
1) Yeah. When situations put me in questionable spots with my kids, if they weren't holding my hand, I was in between them and the danger. I know she was distracted by her anxious thoughts, but in a potential danger area, you leave the area or set your thoughts aside till you are safe... but sometimes you don't realize it's an issue till something wakes you up. Usually it's not a permanent lesson.
2) Agreed. No excuse. Statistically, the death of a child has a high chance of being a marriage wrecker, and his leaving only compounded the problem, but kinda amazed she wasn't in the hospital for quite awhile after the fall. Was there NO communication leading up to the funeral?
3) No, he didn't. He explained (if not clearly) he was was majorly drunk, his cousin threw him in a cold shower (and you see she got wet in the process), then in bed. Evidently she took off her soaking clothes before returning to tuck him in and he started crying and clinging until he fell asleep, but you think a sobbing guy would be kinda obvious.
4) I understand where he might give up FOR A TIME considering he thought she was in her room refusing to talk to him, but yeah. If he was SO in love with her, you think he would come back in a year or so to try again after she'd had some time to recover and step back into life.
But yeah. Despite the unrealistic confluence of incidents, I agree. There is just enough realism to the the emotions to make it a halfway decent story. I think Nikos can take a big part of the credit for stirring up those emotions.
