The most interesting thing about this manhwa was the twin sub-plot tbh. I couldn't care less about the ML and his stupid ass. I could look past the MC being a classic poor, studious, uptight, naive archetype, and even look past the empty and often times derivative plot.
But the way MC and his twins relationship was portrayed in the last few chapters was so bad. He literally said he only tried to find his twin because he needs a replacement so he can move in with the ML. So now his twin can live in squalor and poverty with his mum and little brother, and he can live out his perfect Cinderella life with the rich ML in their penthouse suite, not having to worry about being poor ever again.
Dajun doesn't even appear to care or feel sorry that his twin went through all those things. He didn't even try to find him earlier after Yeonjun appeared with his fingers messed up. He accused his twin of being a whore and staining their reputation without knowing the full situation. Didn't apologise for doing that btw. And wouldn't you have some curiousity as to how his fingers became like that, or what circumstances your freaking twin is in? His twin is malnourished and evidently abused and his reaction is 'how could you do this to yourself? How could you let this happen to you, you're an adult.' No empathy, no comfort. He is so annoying and if I was Yeonjun I would tell him to fuck off.
Now that he needs Yeonjun to take his place at home he goes and 'saves' him from the club and says 'mum needs you back blah blah'. He could've found out 50 chapters ago where his twin was and acted upon it. Like be so fr he is so selfish and opportunistic. Or maybe he is just stupid idk.
Anyways I hate Dajun and feel immensely sorry for his twin.
More like 'my finance keeps trying to groom me'. I think it would have better served the plot to have a clear distinction between genres. If they wanted it to be a child raising story, keep it that way without this awkward pedo undertone. It's so uncomfortable seeing a grown man blush and act shy around an adult woman in a child's body. Or they didn't even need this stupid plot line in the first place. If the ML wanted her to experience being a child, just have her reincarnate and live out her childhood again! Why must they always do this, even the other manhwa where the ML was a child and suddenly turned into an adult it was gross af. I dislike how they literally infantalised this seemingly strong knight MC and turned her into a little baby dependent on the ML.
Courtney better beat Richard up non sexually rn. She needs to emotionally beat him up because he needs to clear that horny brain fog that is compelling him to do this. Like why would you rather choose to loose her trust in return for your own sexual gratification? He did this on purpose, he even had the ability to weigh out the pros and cons of his answers while Courtney was having a mental breakdown. What a cold-hearted and callous way to treat the supposed woman of your dreams. In fact, I believe Richard doesn’t even love Courtney, he's just using her to fulfil his kinks and fantasies. She's right in that he has NO loyalty to her, NO consideration and probably wouldn't have thought twice about submitting to a different woman who could slap his ass. What a dumbass, he better go on an apology marathon or else it's war bro
Koreans be racist and colourist irl yet they will draw a sexy tan guy with abs and capitalise off it by making shitty porn lol. There are dozens of the same plot calling darker skinned characters barbarians, uncivilised, savages, etc. like how obvious can you be with this shit?!? This is so embarrassing. And why the girl always gotta be the most bland white bread crust, unsalted chicken breast ass character. Manifest destiny ass plot.
Even till the end the MC still didn't like the ML and was thinking he was forced the whole time? He keeps on saying 'its not what you think' etc etc to the ML, well what do you mean then?! The last few chapters were literally him trying to run away and terminate his pregnancy. There could not be a worse way to end a romance plot than this. He's a coward and the ML is a rapist. What wasted potential, the art was really beautiful.
Sometimes I wonder why people create art. Why do they draw these imaginary characters and fantastical worlds for us to admire. Is it to inspire within us feelings we can't experience in our day to day life? To entertain us? To communicate a great message? Or just for the sake of beauty?
For this manhwa it seems like the author intended to do none of these things. The art is mediocre, honestly horrible at times. The plot is nonsensical and is neither entertaining or compelling. The main character is Mary Sue while being overwhelmingly stupid. All the characters suck. The dialogue is some of the worst I've ever read. So why did they make this at all? Just why?
Anyways, this was so bad I had an existential crisis whilst reading it. Not even worth reading to waste your time on.
I actually cannot fathom how someone could think of a plot like this and think other people would enjoy it. Or how the editors approved of this, how multiple people worked on this, colouring the penises, thinking of the names for the characters, and thought it was acceptable to release into society. Is this what they mean by art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable? Like did this happen to the author and they're trauma dumping somehow? Is this a common porn setting or smthing? Did anyone actually enjoy reading this? I'm genuinely curious. This is crazy to me.
I actually don't get it, why did he say 'she calms me down' and look so dodgy when MC asked him about that Bodel girl?? Why did he ignore her when he walked past her?? Why did he act so suprised when MC says to not kiss her?? Why did he leave her alone after they had sex and not say a single word to her?? In what world is MC supposed to know he loves her? What the actual hell is wrong with this man and I can't believe everyone thinks he's a kind guy like bro is so bad at communicating and thinks MC should read his mind. I hated his smug ass grin in the last chapter, he's thinking he can just say I love you to MC and all will be fixed. He better suffer some angst before he can get the girl or I will personally write a letter to the author
Read the spoilers and now everything is ruined. What the actual hell was the author on?!?!? Hopefully the manhwa goes a different direction otherwise this story is prime example of wasted potential. Fuck me bro I thought I finally found a good gender bender with a strong female lead... UGH
You can find the spoilers online... but I'll just leave an extract from the novel about the ML.
'Truthfully, Camellia had expected Lü Bu to claim her. Because that was the kind of man he was. The stage was set, and he was not the type to hesitate over whether a woman wanted it or not.'
And
'She had to persuade Lü Bu somehow.
Whatever the price might be. As long as it wasn't Lily. If she could settle it with just herself, it would be a bargain. Camellia repeated this to herself several times as if trying to convince herself'
Anyways, basically the ML is a major AHOLE and was gonna SA Camellia and her wife and the author made it hot instead. So yeah, it's ruined for me. The ML is more like a beast than a human and Camellia and her wife were begging him to stop on multiple occasions it just gross af for a story about female empowerment and badass woman to have a disgusting rapist for a ML.
