At first I hated it. The dialogue/narration was super repetitive, everything either trudged along at a snail's pace or completely sped through/skipped over scenes, and the story was just boring. Most importantly, I hated everything about the MC, especially the way she adopted this holier than thou attitude and blamed everyone else for her decisions. I was glad to see her turnaround at the end, though; at the very least, I preferred her when she embraced her own shallowness and chose to live the way she wanted. Still can't say I liked her even at the end, though. In all honesty, I quite liked Jo's character, maybe because I could understand her feelings/actions? She was neither a saint nor a villain; I can completely relate to her desire to on the one hand help someone who was just like a younger her and, on the other, hating the MC for thinking she could succeed where she(Jo) failed. And it's her character (and the MC's turnaround) that made me give this 3 stars instead of 1. But...I still can't claim to have enjoyed it, though it was a very new experience for me in the world of manga/manhwa reading.
