kei_k's manga / #Faithful Male Lead(11)

finished reading until chapter 40 @ otakumole. note: I am not personally fond of flowers, but that 9-year anniversary proposal with 108 roses (indicating 108 months together), with the meaning of "Will You Marry Me?" in the flower language, is just too touching. Ahh, I really loved Taiga's character. He's so faithful and gentle towards Nao. My only complaint would be that he was a bit insensitive or too carefree when he dealt with Miyabi. Good thing it was settled soon. Other than that, I could not ask for more if a guy like him were to appear before me. Ahh <3

Ch 13 was seriously annoying. She was aware that she HAS A BOYFRIEND AND SHE COULD'VE PUSHED MINAMI AWAY AFTER THAT FIRST FORCED KISS, BUT WHAT DID SHE DO? SHE KISSED HIM BACK FOR LIKE TWO MORE TIMES. SHE PROBABLY HAS DONE MORE IF SHE DIDN'T NOTICE KANNA SAW THEM. Ugh. I liked how there were so many kisses though.

I really liked Bokit (Donghui), and how he remained faithful, dedicated and patient with Myunghae. I wish he'd be like that even when they become adults. He's quite ideal since he's a player, but not a player (if you know what I mean ;D). I wish Myunghae beat him up less and showed him more appreciation though.

Ahh, sooo cute! This manhwa's adorable because the MCs are both naive and slow. I also liked how Yoomin was really faithful to Hana, and Hana was understanding about Youngsun despite putting her up with a lot of bad things. About the issue of two-timing, if we look at it clearly, she didn't really two-time, since they broke up after she was kidnapped. Of course, she just assumed that they were still together and Yoomin was only acting up since she already figured him out mostly. But it's good that Yoomin was clear to himself that she's his subordinate at the moment and not his gf. Speaking of feelings, their love was mutual, so when she agreed to go out with Miyoo out of fear, it may be seen as two-timing, but not really. Well, at least she was aware of it. I'm glad she thought of Yoomin as her bf though, and didn't intentionally break up with him after seeing how he truly was when they're together. About the forced kiss which was caused by a drug Miyoo gave Hana, I would've liked to see more details. I wish Miyoo or Youngsun made it clear to both Hana and Yoomin about that incident. Luckily, since Yoomin thought they weren't even dating at that point, he didn't even had the right to get mad like that. Anyway, a guy like him is just too precious and adorable, but he could also be a pain in the a** since he tends to ignore things he didn't want to believe in. Oh, and I would've wanted Hana to realize the real meaning of Yoomin's "bullying" about her butt. Haha. Okay, for Youngsun, she's honestly scary in a way that she let Hana experience pain not just physically but emotionally and mentally as well. I think Hana was well aware of her evil antics but still went along with her because she liked having her with her. Anyway, I'd say Seo Yoomin has just become one of my fave HMR male characters. Okay, so he slapped her once, despite being uncontrollably wild and violent. That was after he witnessed the heartbreaking scene of seeing her kiss Miyoo and had himself get beaten to feel pain. He was too miserable that he just had to slap her to hurt himself more. He's too naive though, and he definitely has a prince syndrome. Well, it's good enough that he was not a playboy or flirt. That's just a big plus. haha.
