call me crazy but woojin one of my favorite yanderes, i love that you can really feel like he loves haekyung, where as a lot of ones i’ve read recently feel more like the yanderes only see their partners as possessions.. i want to feel that they actually love their partner even if they are crazy toxic, that’s what makes it bearable and interesting
i dont hate the mc, but he’s pretty annoying.. every chapter im like, “what is he going to complain about next?” like he’s so ungrateful, and he knows that his husband doesn’t always understand sarcasm but he pushes his buttons and stresses him out anyways. and no matter how much the ml communicates that he wants to make him happy, the mc dgaf and gets mad anyways like honestly its giving manipulative
I agree, plus we analyse as observers, what I see, is good writing. Mc is emotional, ans swept up in a relationship, struggling with the money attitudes and stuff.
Sure, we know, as omniscient ones that they'll end up together, that the ml's family seem legit. But imagine suddenly you get swept up in a marriage with a super influential rich dude, who seems a bit neurodiveregent at first, but then just boom. autism. And then his family is kind of diminishing your family' financial independence from them..
Like people are generally pretty weird, and it's not easy to pick up randomly, whether someone is genuine, genuinely confused, acting oblivious, or even acting with bad intent.
again i dont hate mc, I think he’s annoying, because the way he acts is kind of disrespectful to the ml imo. he’s also high maintainence. Does that make him a bad person? no, I just don’t particularly like him. and no, writing is not good bc the same plot dynamic is just being recycled again and again.. trust me if this had happened just a few times i would understand but it gets old by the third - fourth time
I think characters being flawed is good writing, I haven't found mc particularly annoying, but I guess that's subjective. I don't need a saint character.
Also I haven't noticed at any time the mc being portrayed as a perfect character, or idealised, which maybe I haven't noticed or overlooked something?
Honestly I don't know how mc isn't grateful, so far I get he is living and using ml's funds and stuff, but it feels to me like there is a certain discomfort and the attitude towards money is one of the central themes here.
I mean, is it just me or the aunt buying bikes thing is just really weird? Like legit a question.
Cause the first time I saw it I thought, shit, that family is making mc's fanily financially dependent on ml's family.. so that they are in a forever subservient position or sth.
I mean I've read a lot of drama so maybe I'm just suspicious by nature.
no, he's not perfect and has his own problems, but I think that it's annoying how the author chooses to portray him in a constant defensive state—he uses sarcasm to attack the ml who doesn't even notice it's sarcasm, for example.
Of course I'm not saying he's a bad person or character, but his personality ends up being repetitive and annoying
Also I just refer to this superficially because that's how I perceive the story's writing, there's no much thinking, just act and response, we'll see if there's more to it later!











what chapter are we on in the novel? I need to read a bit forward bc this is taking too long
