Read the novel! This one is sooo good, trust me. The manhwa is at like, 1/7 of the whole thing so you might not feel the chemistry or tension yet (it will be there and it will be amazing), but it's genuinely one of the best redemption arcs out there. ML is going to be so wholly devoted to the MC it's crazy (dare I say, if forced to choose between MC and himself, their kids, or literally anyone else, MC is ML's top priority no matter what). And the MC is a kind yet strong person despite everything, he will know his worth so don't worry about that. I genuinely love the character growth of both MC and ML and it is described so poignantly in the novel. Just overall wonderful, even the ML's own way of loving MC will make you feel some type of way. Hang in there 'cause it really does get better. Novel link if you need, this is where S1 in the manhwa ends: https://springofromance.com/chapter/m-43/
Omg THAK YOU SM for responding!! Now I will def read the novel!!
Please help me if you've read the novel! I'm dropping this manhwa at chapter 24 due to 2 reasons:
1. There is no chemistry or tension between the leads
2. The plot doesn't make much sense (it also feels disconnected and boring, as if it should have been explained better)
I know the novel is very praised by readers, but please tell me if the manhwa does it justice? Like will I have the same feeling if I try reading the novel? Or is it a lot better then manhwa in that sense?
