I wish mcs would call their love interests „rapists“ more often because most of the time it‘s exactly what they are.
I don’t know why I heard so many good things about this manhwa, lol. While their dynamic is fun at times and has the potential to be really really good, it’s just another story where the „badass“, „cool“ and „independent“ mc gets dragged along with the mls schemes and can’t do anything to break free.
The couple of times the mc punches and fights back were satisfying, but the satisfaction can only last so long when the mc gets assaulted the next chapter, or gets ridiculed, blackmailed and manhandled by the ml right after. There are very good bl stories with this kind of dynamic, where the obsessiveness of the love interest is clear even without (attempted) rape and assault, and there‘s this kind of bickering relationship between both love interests (here it’s always the smart and cunning and clever ml and the humiliated, blushing mc who gets dragged along).
Maybe this will change later in the story, idk, but I also don’t like that the mc doesn’t think of the sexual assault as really „forced“ even though it 100% was.
and before people ask why i‘m reading this and tell me stop if it bothers me so much, y‘all know how important it is to engage critically with what you‘re reading, right? I think the story has potential and I will be happily proven wrong once more chapters are out
