This was so dumb.
I normally don't write comments like that but boy, so much drama for what?
Everything was super rushed and felt superficial af, decisions were made only to further the drama not to continue an actual plot.
I feel like the author tried to put in as many dramatic elements that are used in modern plot manhwas as possible and it's simply too much. I continuesly asked myself why I was still reading it and I cant actually answer why I finished it.
The smut was also super mid and how it ca e to it questionable in my opinion.
I don't think I've read a story like this before. I assumed a lot of things in the beginning: contractual marriage, turning back time, revenge against unfair death and so on - and it was some of it but different than anticipated.
At some points I was a bit nervous if it would stir towards some tropes I dislike but it didn't.
And while there were those "stereotypical" elements the way it was implemented I really liked. Also the smut - it was unexpected but it was also kind of refreshing? Normally there a either smut manhwas or those without, here it was implemented as something that just happened like in RL. There wasn't a extreme focus on it, it wasn't too much it was just there and then it wasn't.
I liked their communication and trust in each other. Jiho was also super interesting, firstly because HE was the one who isekaied. I meant it's not the first story where it happened but nowadays it's mostly a white lotus or the MC who does. In the beginning I was also so convinced that he didnt know what happened to her, that he didn't actually agree to that plan and I was surprised when it was revealed otherwise. I also loved that she did not for a second think of him as a second ML. No blushing or second thought, she saw him for what he eas after his memories returned: obsesses. Scary.
Also loved our side couple, I was rooting for them since she said our Fabian was her type.
Now I'd just like to see the child. Maybe an epilogue or smth.
At this point I just want her to elope with the blond duke and be happy. If it was that easy.
It's really frustrating that most of the shit thats happening happens because of falsely made assumptions, naivety and zero communication.
I mean, poor guy had to go through so much traumatic shit but obviously that doesn't give him the right to treat her like that. And it also shows just how deep his insecurities and distrust in her ran. If he had actually trusted her he wouldn't have so readily believed that she abandoned him, without questioning or denying it at least once (if I remember correctly). And I mean I kind of get where it's coming from but idk I cant even properly put it into words - how fickle he must have thought her feelings for him were, when literally admitted knowing she loved him.
Also his freaking abusive and controlling behavior and then him wondering why she "doesn't get angry and tell me" so frustrating. Poor girl is so depressed she doesn't even remember her likes anymore. Being in a constant state of anxiety. Its really surprising that she's not suicidal yet. In the recent chapters it actually felt like she might attempt or sh at some point. Relieving the trauma of losing her parents added to everything else. She can't catch a break, really.
He's probably the male lead, even though I wish he wasn't so I hope that at least some of her hurt can be lifted in the next chapters or that they actually communicate properly about ANYTHING, without any form of violence.
When I started to read it I wasn't a fan of the art and thought about dropping it. Glad I didn't! It's really wholesome. Also quite realistic in making decisions, insecurities and evolving dynamics. There was no endless drama about confessing their feelings or groundless jealousy between the main couple. Healthy. I really liked it, the pacing and storytelling. The art grew on me.
I also really like the fl and ml a lot
One chapter a week really isn't enough. I am addicted. I've never read this type of manhwa before.
I need moooooore T.T
I can't wait to see how their relationship is going to evolve and how she's going to be once she Let's go of her inhibitions.
I already know it's going to be sooo good, especially since he's such a brat
It's going to be terrible but at the same time I am kind of looking forward to it. I reread the chapter and I was crying - AGAIN. It's so heartwrenching. Especially Uriel. And if I imagine what it'll LOOK like. I mean reading is one thing, but I think the webtoon captures the emotions very well so I think it's going to be really good

Here is the link to the translated chapter 14. I read it on an af blocking browser cuz the ads can get fairly annoying










This was different. I loved it.
This was a really well-rounded story and everything that happened actually had a reason for happening. No unnecessary drama, no unneeded love-triangle or jealousy.
The right amount of humor. The MC was a funny character who did a lot of random things but her reasoning as to why made kind of sense and it wasn't too much
The male lead was also great. Especially that he didnt fall head over heels at first sight or one of the other tropes that are often used. It was more natural, I guess? I liked that a lot.
Also one of my favorite moments was when Elena (it was more in the beginning I think) compared her relationship with the ml with that of her sister
Them being all cute and Elena and her ml looking at each other as if they both were some weird animal.
