Honestly, I can understand why. Living in Korea, where culture is used to oppress you as a women, and having your own family treat you that way can make you question your entire being and even your humanity. It’s truly awful. I know I come from a similar culture.
This is kind of a drag response. But if you’re gonna read manhwa which is written by Koreans majorly for a Korean audience, it would be best to understand how their culture and society work. Same if you read manga or manhua.
You’re allowed to have an opinion but you need to understand what fuels characters choices in situations like this where it’s obvious that she’s fighting something that we (westerners, assuming you are sry) don’t relate to. I’m from Australia, we are allowed to have a voice and a lot of freedom. It’s obvious after travelling to Korea, reading manhwa and engaging in the culture, that they are are not able to do that. They function very systematically and their views are very “old fashioned” compared to ours. You think she has no backbone but she’s a victim of social and cultural norms and oppression.
No I completely understand where you’re coming from. My frustration with this is because I’ve lived in Korea for 2 years and my friends have been through similar situations. Watching them constantly feel so small made me mad and I would go “ugh I wish you had more of a backbone.” (Very opinionated of me ik) They have explained to me and why they couldn’t really voice their true thoughts and feelings. It sucks and they truly are victims. Me writing that post was more just frustration and my impatience and I can’t wait for her to finally stand up to her mom. But thank you for replying to me ! You truly seem like a sweet person :)
This bitch has 0 backbone ugh
