sambu : this translator has such cute stories posted i love them!!!!!!

Jegra : I actually find the MC interesting because she is not ur typical kind, brave, or selfless female MC. She’s a realistic character who grew up with abusive and emotionally manipulative parents. What happened with the ML was complex and not as simple as “MC is a bad person who only thinks about herself”. Years of abuse by your primary caregivers will seriously fuck up a person’s mentality.
She did not resist when her parents made them break the engagement and had her engaged with other men because her whole life has been controlled by her parents. This is the effect of years or even a decade of learned helplessness. For example, menstrual cramps hurt right? But imagine u’ve drank every medicine and tried every methods but none of them worked and every doctor u saw said that this is normal. U eventually learn to accept that cramps is painful and u can only suck it up. Its like a dog that keeps getting electrocuted no matter how much it barks and struggles; it doesn’t understand why its in pain and doesn’t know how to stop it, so it eventually just accepts the pain as a normal part of its life.
She said horrible crap to the ML but i don’t think its something she genuinely believes: she’s just parroting her parents bc that’s how she can accept that they’re not meant to be together. Subconsciously her mind will always seek her father’s approval bc that is what abused children do with their abusive caregiver. This is her lot and she can only survive by following them.
Of course what she did was still fucked up and its understandable that the ML was very hurt, but she did love him and probably still does. With the MC’s power i won’t be surprised if she eventually ends up sacrificing herself for the ML.
