Honestly, I do love stories like this, but this one just pisses me off, and I’ve only read seven chapters. To me, it makes no sense that a commoner could be a concubine for the king and there’s no pushback from the nobility, and then even if the heir has common blood, he wouldn’t live in peace. The nobility would’ve pushed for their daughters to be concubines just for the possibility that their daughter could one day produce the heir, so that alone makes no sense, because the empress comes from a powerful family.
Also, say what you want, it was a political marriage. Did you expect anything different? In manga/manhwa, she would get cheated on either way. And honestly, the cheating aspect of it just comes off like miscommunication that wasn’t cleared up, and me personally, I wouldn’t have cleared up anything, because bitch, it’s been 10 years. I was forced into this. They didn’t care that my family was in decline, they were actually happy. Now I’m marrying the person they’re saying my loving aunt tried to kill, so now my aunt is treated like the scum of the earth over some board, Wrap it up.
Follow the ways of those times, she would’ve gotten cheated on. So for her to think that he was going to love her and cherish her is so stupid. If she had come from a loving and devoted family, I would get why she would want that, because that’s what she’s used to seeing, and I would love that she wants to have that for herself. That’s why she never wanted a political marriage.
But bitch why would you think it would be any different? It’s just so stupid. Like, cute kid, but the level of stupidity is crazy. And I can’t even be surprised, because she is 20. Are you even into manhwa/manga? We know what we’re getting into. You’ll be annoying in these comments like I can name you 20 off my head bl,gl and regular that follows the same storyline. I‘m not gonna let something like this piss me off anymore, both the bitches weird af plus it ain’t even got smut. I would rather re-read your throne or Sister, I Am the Queen in This Life. Shit even a brother without tomorrow story, the pretty art style will not put me in this time
Dawg chill
Lmao valid crash out.
this opened my eyes, thank u fantasy-historical manwha connoisseur
Do you have more recommendations ( I've already read all of the 3 u mentioned)
For just bl or historical manhwa?
Both
Fr, I never get they expect him to just love them when they know they are hated, plus she herself said that she didn’t even try to be involved in his territory… do they expect that by the time they sign the marriage certificate the husband heart magically blooms with love ????
I feel as though, she thought that because he had sex with her. he felt differently towards her. After she went back into the past, you saw that he just wanted information on what happened with his aunt. Like the end goal was to prove that his aunt was innocent. They always think it’s gonna be different, just because it’s them. Like spend that man’s money, and treat them accordingly simple. Fuck that love shit. I had somewhat of high hopes, being that it’s the same author from what it means to be you. I can honestly see how the story is gonna unfold tbh.
Actually it’s she was just infatuated. ‘Cause the only reason they had sex was to sire an heir as they were ordered by her family, so again her expecting love was crazy. Plus in the past life he told her to forget about clearing his aunt name since she hadn’t done anything until the moment she told him she wanted to try to remember. And the only reason she decided to want to help was so that she could better her realationship with him since it was so baf
Only thing she wanted was the child, then she was gonna dip out somehow. Her end goal was the child, by you saying she put that plan in place, so the relationship could get better is a crazy. She didn’t think that far ahead, she just wanted her baby. We as readers know from past manhwa/manga that it’s gonna end in a better relationship. You’re giving her way too much credit. She did try to remember about what happened before, she just told him to have a better relationship and remember what she forgot. He told her that because it has been 10 years, his family was on the decline just because of that. Nobles probably didn’t want to help because her family holds the power. He has said that she doesn’t want to remember to protect her family. They showed us that she was at a crossroads, being that she already lost a parent figure and she doesn’t want to lose another.
Honestly, I saw that it was heading in that direction, but I really wish the author didn’t pair them together. The whole thing is so messy. Everything that happened with both their parents is so draining, I really wish that it didn’t go that way.
Same thought, they don’t even have sparks, or is it just me?
Why base them from their parents when they are their own separate individuals
Nah I don’t feel it either
The level of toxicity that follow that relationship is crazy. Why would I want my mom to be attached to her ex that caused her trauma and why would I want my future in law to be attached to my mom that caused her trauma? Did you not read Love is an illusion?
Yes you’re right we shouldn’t base it from their parents but there is always an “ick factor”. It is socially messy and If you think about it in real life perspective, even if their parents reconciled both sides will be awkward.
There isn’t any spike, I feel like they just want to make a side story from all that. They know that people liked both pairs, so they’re trying to make a story from that.
Why would it?, both already moved forward and found someone they truly love and the fact their daughters are happy with one another I believe they will support them despite their history and maybe have moment to finally make amends and put their past differences aside for their daughters
So you jumped into a story that you have no knowledge about, and you’re wondering why people are against the pair that you like? lol funny very funny.
Child, I've been with this story since Hyesung and Dojin's first chapter and the very thought you opposing the idea they shouldn't be together says you don't want them to be together because of their parents and that primarily says you focus more on yourself than if you had a child
It is not that simple, If the scenario was “there parents are past lovers not MARRIED” maybe they can be paired up.. BUT their parents have TOXIC RELATIONSHIPS TO THE POINT of ABUSE AND PHYSICAL HARM. So if you have a morally conscious MIND maybe you will feel the same with US. Please read LOVE IS AN ILLUSION first.
And what about today? Their past is part of the foundation they have today with having daughters and that's still it, why are you basing their parents history for their daughters sake? They're already past everything and moved on with someone they truly love and the fact you keep bringing up their past says you're very still stuck in the past
If I oppose the idea, it’s because I know that when a relationship is built on top of a 'messy' family history, the children are the ones who end up carrying the emotional weight of their parents' trauma.
The amount physical, emotional, and verbal abuse, that happened between three of them. Isn’t something that can be cleared up by you saying that it’s their past. You are looking at the present. The author didn’t show you that any of them has received any type of treatment to forget about the past. You wouldn’t have known anything that they went through because you didn’t read love is an illusion. And that’s where you went wrong, you can’t come to me, talking about past is the past. You weren’t there when all of us were going to the ups and downs of this manhwa. Everyone in this manhwa went through some type of abuse. Like why should I forget the past just because my daughter likes a girl. You gonna a million different broads, pick a different one.
Acknowledging the parents' history isn't about being 'stuck'—it’s about respecting the truth of their family tree. You say they’ve moved on, but 'moving on' doesn't erase the fact that these families have traumatic past.
That’s what I’m saying the amount of trauma that happened is crazy. I would love a gl not gonna lie but not with them. It would be nice for them to have love between each other, but the history that their family has is so toxic. And I don’t want that type of stress. Like I’m already reading jinx. I don’t need that shit, granny bout to die in a couple of chapters. Dan in the hospital. Child I’m already stress.
And that's probably where your ick part stand because you focused more on yourself than supporting your child because you feel like you should prioritize your peace over your child, they have all grown up and learned to mature and learned to move forward and even had children and base on what you're saying it feels as if you're referring to Hyesung's relationship with his mother and yes that was a scar that won't heal fast but the thing between Soyi and Soobins parents right now is different
That's a you problem , if u can't control your own stress from stories that against your moral , don't read it .
You’re saying just because they have children they should forget their painful pass and be happy for their child. In a perfect world that would be the case, but the world isn’t perfect. No parent is perfect. Why should I as a parent fully support my child, knowing that I’m tied to this person that has caused me pain in the past. At the end of the day, they’re humans. They’re individuals before they were a parent.
That trauma for chowon and the alpha was already long gone and they moved from it and I bet Soyi's parents already know who she's been with. This is no longer about their story but is more now on you and your messy way of thinking about your family dynamics and stereotypes that your partner should have a clean family history to uphold your family line and dynamics
Sweetie we’re reading on an illegal site, if I want to read a manhwa or two that’s gonna cause me stress. Let me worry about that. If we’re worried about my mentally heath send me a couple bands.
You keep saying I’m prioritizing my 'peace' over my child’s happiness, but you’re missing the point: A parent’s peace IS a child’s security. When a parent has survived a toxic and abusive marriage—like Soyi and Bin’s parents did—their primary job is to break that cycle, not stay entangled with it.
what are the chances' they'd fall in love? The chances are extremely low, which is exactly why it’s so concerning. It’s not 'delusional' to question why, out of all the people in the world, they chose the one person that keeps their families tied to an abusive past.
By supporting this relationship, you aren't just supporting 'love'; you are forcing victims of abuse (the parents) to sit across the table from their past every single holiday. That isn't maturity; that’s asking a survivor to live in a trigger.

So you’re basically saying that chowon hasn’t moved past her stalker tendencies, and she’s doing the same with her daughter. That’s a weird of you to say. Let’s talk about you saying that I’m including my family dynamic, two family household for generations. I’ve only seen healthy relationships unlike you. The mindset that you have to want two people with traumatic experiences to forget about that traumatic experience just because they have a child is dumb. Get some help.
