Ngl the story ended up a 9/10 for me. I fell for so many characters, and they really flesh them out with stories and personalities of their own. King Consort, you have my heart you poor beautiful neglected man. The side stories showing the past were short and sweet and I would have genuinely read a whole comic of them. I love that many characters had flaws they had to face, and that even her rival from the very beginning ended up still her friend and helping each other. I thought the Queen (Claire) was a surprisingly deep and complicated character, and I dislike so many choices that she made, but honestly who can judge her for wanting freedom and love for once (Ls dad), not to be controlled and keep the family honor all on her own.
I'm over the side story bullshit, we didn't need an au their story is interesting and stressful enough. Why waste time in the middle of the story with something else with plot??
Opposite, I actually don't understand why people are mad at my opinion lol I just want the real story. An au side after it was over would have been fine because we'd get to see the characters we love and not say goodbye yet. But a new story with same characters while the main is on a cliffhanger feels weird idk











I have actually come to love this. Two hot blooded idiots who are unlikable for their personalities and yet they just mesh because of it. I'm actually rooting for them now lol
My exact feelings abt this manhwa !! At first I didn’t see any chemistry in sight but it’s turning into somewhat of an unconventional love story??
I hope they can figure out their feelings and just be honest with each other.
If one of them was a pushover (well Charcoal SORT of is but he pushes back violently lol) it would be boring. But with both characters having such obvious character flaws, it became interesting once they actually started "living" together and getting used to each other's presence.
