If you like a period drama/melo drama like the BBC shows (+more light heartedness and coming of age theme) I would recommend this.
Everyone shitting on ML but personally I like all the characters. They were set to be engaged as children (and seems like they are still kids/maybe young adults). Not everyone grow up with big interests in romance and you can see from their first few exchanges he was soo nervous and might’ve had a crush on her. But due to FL’s patients with him he got too comfortable and thought it was okay to not focus on ‘love’. He obviously is just learning to really know the depth of his own feelings and tries to show it too late BUT we are really learning how far he will go for the sake of love.
FL on the other hand is over being heartbroken, and is numb. She likes romantics stories and observe other people’s love life and envies it. She also doesn’t fully know what love means to her on top of avoiding feeling her own emotions. She’s in denial about his feelings along with her own, she’s developed major avoided attachment issues. She’s played the role of just a fiancé who expected some romance, yes, but I don’t think she fully understood love in it of itself. And is now learning that there is life outside of being a fiancé or being married for women.
Because of the realism and the story, I am assuming that a part of it is showing that young crush doesn’t exactly equal love. He is learning that he loves her and she is learning what love actually means.
Claude is also a different story. He probably has some tragic background when he doesn’t think he’s good enough for his fiancé.. and he wishes she find someone better and so I’m sure that there is another big story with them. And then there’s also the princess who is obviously still young and immature and has a lot on her shoulder. She is not marrying for love, doesn’t also know love and romance. She is a marrying a man 15 years older than her for her country. ML being her friend recognizes this. There’s a big story there. And it also explores a lot of different characters and lives along with their love lives.
Anyways, that kind of just my point of view everybody’s shitting the story about being like some type of fake white feminism type of story. But this isn’t a feminist story. This is a romance story with feminist themes. I think we will be exploring a lot more character development from all the characters all around. Currently no one is evil, everybody literally is just coming of age and growing up.
