Reading this made me realize there's quite a line between manhwa adaptations and novels. To me, the manhwa version made the ML's character less aggressive (symbolically). It's still much, but it will really make people be drawn to him quite easier despite his innuendos.

While reading the novel, to me, it felt like reading a psychopath get his way to love. Idk if it makes sense but reading all the details on the novel and how it builds his character made it harder for me to sympathize with him as a whole. I feel like the ML is still a red flag til the end, even up to the side stories. The chasing arch felt underwhelming which made it even hard for me to think he changed, although the novel conveys so. Whereas the manhwa, i think, did a really great job on toning down the MLs character to make him more likeable.

And i like that for this story. Idk if what i said makes sense but iykyk.

    I didn't read the passion novel, but based from what Ive seen from the manhwa, passion was worse.(I could be wrong tho)

    I was told this is a story of a jerk top that admits his wrongdoings and tries to redeem himself, is that true?

    He becomes aware of his wrong doings but he has no redeemable qualities. The bottom just loves him regardless.

    I see. So he does nothing after realizing the bad things he did? Apparently he has some mental issues too, that is what i heard.

    Thanks. I was not sure what he had. I think somebody with his condition can not really feel love. I do not know if he showed any regret for the bad things he did to the uke though.
