Idk, i disagree. I think it’s actually pretty fitting. Concerning her nobility training from before she became queen, we know that her father was fairly indulgent, not teaching her how to manage an estate which is usually a part of nobility training, etiquette wise we know that people view her in good light as a beauty and even graceful. She does stand on the sidelines during events but that’s explained by her not wanting to even see the King. She interacts with other nobles and servants well enough so her mannerisms shouldn’t have any problems per se. As for her queen training, just based off how she’s treated and seemingly disregarded, we can’t be sure whether she did go through any training as she never had any duties to attend to besides showing up next to the king. And finally, she’s obviously been through betrayal, abuse, and death, if anything i’m surprised her panic attacks aren’t worse
Perhaps I wasn't wording it clearer. But, I'm saying how she is observed by other characters and how she is illustrated visually to the reader has a gap. Like, she's drawn hunched, or squirlly, or squeamish in formal settings with others around even when not much is happening. Sometimes her hands just don't know where to go. Perhaps the artist just isn't skilled but the visuals mismatching the scene bother me.
In regards to the rest of your reply, the webtoon never really addresses her education, so it's just your interpretation versus mine. However, she did say herself their tutor has been watching them since young. She's already lived 20+ years in noble society, there's no way she wouldn't pick up how to be more poised just by virtue of interaction, and that really has nothing to do with her trauma. Take the queen for example, who is also a victim but still looks regal in mannerism.
Fair enough, i guess it is mostly just a matter of perception.
Holly molly... Genuinely thank you so very much!
I was about to get baited into reading this because the cover art makes her look strong and the synopsis made it seem like a story about her becoming the strongest and avenging herself... not to mention being smart and savvy with politics...
But by your comment she's one of those female mc's that are described one way but portrayed another in the comics... the super smart that only make dumb decisions and the confident with a strong personality that keeps walking on eggshells and being a people pleaser all the time... I hate those... and it's even worse if they forgive and forget everything as soon as a man gets involved... all things that would piss me into dropping a comic...
So really... thank you for helping me not waste time on this...
Well, it's an ok-read but my biggest irk with this webtoon is how awkward and clumsy the female lead is portrayed visually. I get that she is victim of abuse and that can have lasting effects but what I mean is... she still had nobility tutorship (at least verifiably up until she was 19), and most likely queen consort training. But she comes off so stiff and unfamiliar with her surroundings that it's strange?
