HOLD ON YOU'RE ONTO SOMETHING....now i can low-key see the similarities with Scarlett O'Hara and Xinlu, his obsession with taeui(Ashley) who's already in love with another, always chasing after taeui to be with him throughout the passion series. Taeui rejects him but also has a soft spot for xinlu like Ashley does with Scarlett. And xinlu being a very ruthless person at the beginning who gradually matured and had character growth at the end and realized that the one he loves is Yuri(Rhett). Tho ilay is obviously far off from being Melanie HAHAAHAH

Its off topic but did you think the Gable last name the author give to Yuri is inspired by Clark Gable? I just watch Gone With the Wind and Vivian Leigh life description “a successful business man can live like a prince in India” is exactly like Alain(Ilay’s friend) description. Yk, like the author maybe watch this movie and take some inspiration. Its a reach, but I need to get this out of my head
