You guys have made me so untrusting. I thought ms.doe was a sweetie, but all the speculation that she's the abuser has made me hate her.
Well she really is suspicious AF...
For example in this page
http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/the_lady_and_her_butler/uu/iur_chapter-5/pg-22/
The manager is making fun at ms.doh by calling her miss fix it again in this panel... And miss doh clearly show signs of hating it... And then magically she became interested in him after she was commissioned by his company to be the designer...
And also in this page
http://www.mangago.zone/read-manga/the_lady_and_her_butler/uu/iur_chapter-28/pg-3/
She was showing her work to him (in which the manager thought it was rough and in early stages- but I think she just suck at it and has no talent) and then she suddenly shifted the topic and became all mushy with him..,
She clearly is two faced and hiding something
Yup, I think so too. Also, the username of the designer they first found online is Moon Crystal right? If I remember correctly, Taesoo's name is Moon Taesoo; and it says somewhere in chapter 10 that Soojung–Ms. Doh's name–means crystal. Aaand, I also think those designs were Taesoo's all along.
You're right, Taesoon's name is Moon

and Mr. Hwang was saying something about Ms Doh being the crystal (and the person behind the art)

When I read your comment I reread certain chapters, and I even noticed that Sooha has the picture of the moon as her profile picture on the phone

I'm not the type to get into stories featuring polyamorous relationships, but I think it would have worked better here than some half baked love triangle. It doesn't seem like their "relationship" would work out well with both guys constantly fighting over the mc.
The development between glasses guy and the main character could have been better, too. It seems the author was really pushing for a threesome without putting much thought into it. He and the m.c have what I assume is a platonic relationship for practically all their lives and they just. . .jump into it? At least give yourself some time to adjust.
There was also a lot of unexplained back story concerning azusa. I mean yeah, all of us know the typical route it would follow (rich boy with family issues), but why bother introducing it at all if you weren't going to expand on it?? You might as well have introduced him as someone that fools guys with his cross dressing without any traumatic pasts attached to it. It's more shallow, sure, but would have probably worked better with a manga with such condensed length.











I'm a quarter-way into this manga (loving it, btw), but damn, comparing this to fushigi yugi, miaka had it WAY easier. Things are definitely not going smoothly for the first priestess.
