Since the story is just bad I start to reverse the "gender voice in my head" prince have a high pitch voice mini mouse style, duke close to prince but a little lower ton, white hair girl get a deep demonic voice. The story is still bad but now it is funny!
Unpopular opinion I guess, but I feel kind of bad of the "antagonist woman" I mean she is the same as uke, uke even acknoledge that at some point. They both try to survive. The only difference is uke trust seme capability but the "antagonist woman" didn't. And technicly if it was only about Uke and Seme they wouldn't have made it if "antagonist woman" didn't play like she did. I understand she betray Seme and she was a risk for both of them because she was crazy angry about seme leaving her side for uke. But in the end if you as a reader take "uke side" and his want to survive and be free it would be hypocrite thinking that "antagonist woman" get the end she deserved, she had the same want and kind of play the same card as uke, she just use her charm on more than one "pawn" while uke use some manipulation too just not by charming more than seme. I understand that the best ending is "her being in jail" because she help seme and uke the case have a "conclusion" and free she would be a risk for their "peace" it was "them or her" but I can't help myself but feeling bad for her, it is true she did work as hard to get her freedom in the end. Well with that being said I still hope Seme and Uke to live happy ever after!
so now we just have to look for "Seph" update and take the rest as garbage, good to know.
Again and again with the comment section.
People here take a "small part" and want it to justify everything.
This is not the point, stop searching for a "justification for his behavior" most of all because none of you would think anything would be enough to justify his sh**
This was only an explaination about the debt. How did it start, why Naesoo is the one "responsible for the debt" (not that it is justify but what happen for her to get that debt on her back).
omg that story is sooo crazzyyyy everyone in it are fu** top I like it so much omg!!
(Yes I like messy story this is entertainment!!) This author is just crraaazzzyyy omg I like it!!!! can't wait for what's next seriously!!!
A lot of comment are complaining about Micheol and his back story as if it was there to 'trigger some sympathy" toward him. WHAT IF, those flash back are there for us to understand what happen. Aren't you all curious to understand when things go wrong and why and how FL is hurt, why ML have a "plan" and act all shabby around her, how it would really affect Micheol. Sometime seeing about "the bad guy" just help to understand the big picture and the "impact" with "what's next". Why FL did put up with his sh**y behavior, why she lost her trust after getting hurt. Because just "saying it" is not the same than showing it. If it was just arround FL being in relationship with ML there would be no reason for the "plot of the main story" every action would only bring confusion and would seems meaning less, most of you would probably say something like ML should stop his fixation on her ex and tell her the true, FL should just turn the page like it was nothing .. and so on.. So what about we just read the story as it is!?
Seriously this type of story is not my type of story in general. BUT this one really got me, like every chapter I m like oki but.. I need more!! This is the type of story that, if it was complete I would have read it in one go. I can't really explain why, but I enjoy it. I'm curious for what s next, I want to see the development, how the issues for both FL and ML will be resolve, how each character will evolve with their role, I like the "small comedy" and lively atmosphere. Personaly this is a good one for now.
Noooo not the end!!! I want more ┗( T﹏T )┛please let it have some side story!!!
Oki maybe you all saw it already and I am like "OMG REVELATION!" BUT
Just in case!
On the cover picture!!! ML hold a syringe and MC have a dark spot on his wrist!! ML DOES INJECT MC SOMETHING!!!!
ML clearly is the one that want a relationship with MC! (tell himself he need to hold back and all) The rejection at the beginning, I am calling that out, its probably from MC! But this is missleading because we don't see MC "link with the bubble" So the one who is saying that "this is disgusting" is probably MC!! NOT ML!!!
So ML confess, MC rejected, ML drug him and created the memory lost! The accident alone wouldn't guarantee a memory lost! They are working in a pharmaceutical lab! This would explain also why ML feel uneasy with MC choosing a movie that he would found "disgusting" normaly!!
At first the story was nice, the "fight" against the blond girl to take back her position. Then oki fine she climb her way nice. Then oki we understand the "duke and his sons" was on a spell to hate her in previous life and now are regretful. Oki she grew and she is super powerful good good. But now it s only "Her majesty her majesty her majesty her majesty her majjjeeessstttyyyy" like gurl are you with the right ML at this point XD don't get me wrong I would think it is creepy if "her majesty' was the ML but this is no longer being greatful this is obsession XD. THEN FL and ML start their relationship oki oki fine they had a lot to talk about and then...... FL litteraly act like ML is granted and she is like "oh I know he can resist me" like girl your relationship just start ML is full on PTSD of previous life and feel unworthy FL didn't even had the idea in mind until they had their conversation. And now they act as if they both are 2000% into each other, talk about toxic relationship! I understand she need ML to stay alive but the co-dependancy level just took 100 steps further without any clear reason except "ML regreted her dying in previous life and sacrifised his heart". And the story since their night together is just around that so the last chapter is only "oh we spend a night together so (...) since we spend the night with each other (...) and HER MAJESTY!!! sleep together! HER MAJESTY"
I really hope for the story to improve a little bit, because the idea was very good, and yeah even if this was "easy writing everything work well for FL lazy pen author" at least it was interesting to see where it was going! But seriously if we get another chapter with no evolution of the story except for the "spend a night together/HER MAJESTY" thing seriously I don't think I can!! And this is sad because it was really interesting at the beginning.
I don't get the story, there is something that make no sens at all to me...
Prince gave the FL to the Duke "in case her name appear on him" and ask to give her back after one year if the Duke doesn t have her name.
Not even a year have pass and Prince want her back (oki I get it this is because of his obsession) but now it s oki if Duke die??? Why giving her in the first place???
If the prince don't care now why did he care at all at first!???
This story (〜￣△￣)〜 clearly not the best writing ever which is ironic (kinda) since its about a writer (ok my jokes aren t better I agree)
I keep on reading it because you know... it is a light story, the idea behind is kind of good but well, there is some time when I need to just accept things for what they are. For example the 'Horrriiible plan from purple hair to destroy ML by making him say he don't date at the radio mua hahahahaha" ....... Now the twist!! to keep it going!! I'm like oki oki fine let's see what's next you know.
this chapter... MC is clearly indeniably smart... (full on sarcasm)
second ML mom show up, they litteraly tell her "the author of that story" She litteraly reply "oh my son co-write this" and Mc is like "oh no I need to go before she see me" (the mom never sees her before) I mean Girl she knows you are there!! The author of the story her son co-write with! I mean PLEASE! I get it was an excuse for the next scene (to go into that room with Actor) but why!! Why the real author have such a lazy pen!!!! I can't!! This type of things happen multiple time! Each time I brainwash myself a little more! Don't get me wrong I'll keep on reading it as "a light story" but I need to make that critic, this chapter, the level of none sens is just too much!
I won't lie, I got attach to that story but let's say I am now an old woman sooo it doesnt hit like it did when I was younger and full of admiration for love! That age when I was going on full ship over some fictional caracter. I mean probably there is some youngster who catch up that story and goes all for it I don't want to make it a "me" problem but extending that story this much I do wonder if I will ever see the conclusion of it and I m probably not the only one in that boat. Probably a lot of people who was there at its beginning aren t following anymore (you grew up at some point, have a family and take other interest) good for me I am a nerdy old lady who doesn t have a life!! This is the one piece of shojo. Hope I'll get to see the conclusion at some point.. I do like the story don't get me wrong!! But I wonder if the author's "target public" is in fact our grant grant children.
Hello everyone,
Let me teach you about "story line"
Here how ir goes
at first you will get an introduction of the MC and the picture of their everyday life
In those line you will get some explaination about "the issues" the MC will have to deal with until the resolution.
Then other character will be introduce, you ll get some back story at some point if they are important for the story
Then you ll get a few "Mc try this doesn t work Mc try that doesn t work" and so on until some event let them reach the "resolution"
For long stories you may have another issue that will pop up after one get resolve, same process here "try this doesn t work try that doesn t work"
Then you ll get a conclusion. Without any issue there is no story. No conflict to adress mean no story at all.
Keep that in mind, because all I see here is a bunch of critics about the issues when they are necessary. No story ever start with "everything is fine and everything is good then they live happely ever after". None! Never happen, won t ever happen because it would be meaningless!
Can't wait to see where this story goes because it pick my interest!
I look at the comment section every ch. and I just don't get it. The amount of hate I'm like why are you even reading it if this is not your type of story??
People act like emotional masochist, like, what are you even doing?!!
Personaly I enjoy the story!
oki there is that twist thing with MC eating ghost... I was like "wait what? after all this time, with all of this"
I mean that was weird somehow, like, unless MC didn't mention it because he wanted an excuse to keep ML next to him by using him and is lowkey also obsesses that would be mess up but that would be a nice way to explain the F with that "super power" that comes from nowhere!!!
But it would be my only critic and it s about the story line. Because if I was hating the MC or the ML sooooo much to critic them every ch. I mean I would have drop it a long time ago! I mean what are you doing?!!!!!! If you don't like mess up behavior don't read a story with mess up behavior! Or do you all enjoy hating something?? I don't get it!
In my top 3 this story goes!
Now if you didn't read it yet, you need to be aware the story in itself is about a toxic couple with toxic behavior. If you are trigger by those kind of things this is not a story for you. This is a story that won't tell you what you should think like you won't have an information that would add to something that happen previously and be followed with a flashback for you to fit the puzzle of their issue together you need to keep that in mind to understand, because the issue is not only about the relationship but also on their perception this is why there is a missunderstanding, they will show you their perception and they won't tell you "oh now I understand I shouldn t have think that way when this and that happen"
Personaly I like the story soooo much seriously and I think that a lot of people judge it because it is simply not their type of story, they read the part on Annette point of view at first and blame ML of everything they keep that idea until the very end and what ever happen it is never enough like at this point it is the same as wanting him dead and even that wouldn't be enough...
So now I will start to spoiled the story to tell my understanding of the story and why I think people are "mistaken" with their interpretation.
At first the story will show you Annette pov and how she sees her relationship with Heiner. A husband that fake his love for her and put her into misery. Soon enough you will see a tendancy were "everything is Heiner fault because he want her to be miserable" (not entirely wrong but not everything is Heiner fault) for example when Heiner and Annette went to an event with her favorite pianist, he stop her to drink to much we just see with Annette eyes we could think that this is a controling behavior and not that he is observing her and stop her to drink too much for her well being. A lady ask her to play the piano, she is being on the spot Heiner doesn't know that she have a ptsd, in fact he love when she play so he kind of want her to play like it is an opportunity you will see it by his expression because he will stay quiet. Annette once she is sit in front of the piano think about he is doing it on purpose because he want her to feel miserable once again. She get sick and they return home. Annette at some point gets pregnant she wanted a baby hoping that it could save her mariage (not really a good idea but) she finaly is and doesn t know. She gets stab and lost the baby, once she wake up she learn that she had one and lost it, she start to "twist" her thought again while she is grieving, "this is a good thing that she lost the baby" she process in order to accept her lost. And again blame Heiner in the end. The reason why she get stab was because everyone hate her, it wasn't because of Heiner that she was isolated from everyone and received hate by everyone (more because of her father) of course Heiner didn't do anything about it don't get me wrong he does play a part and he is not "all green flag" from the start but what he actually really do is "ignoring her" and supervising her (we can think he doesn't want her to go at the beach because it could be dangerous for her but since he doesn t tell her this is the same as controling her action) but that's pretty much it. Now when she try to exit keep in mind she lost her baby and another time she had a conversation that affected her (her first reality check) with Katherine. All of this was at play when she tried to exit herself and of course since this happen with Annette pov she directed and validated herself by blaming Heiner.
Now Heiner also have his share, the guy litteraly lie to himself and twist his own mind. And this does add to Annette pov. For example the guy was affected by Annette trying to exit, we could see the terror and it will become a traumatic event for him (later he start to panic when he sees her with a pair of cisors) So why, if he hate her sooo much he was so afraid what does he want form her and all.. This is a monologue that we will see. The guy is not able to say "because I love her" the all reason behind his behavior is "I will make you so miserable that no one will want you not even me" in his monologue he is doing something that we often do ourself, trying to put some logic to align our behavior with our emotion. So at the end of his monologue he kind of lie to himself by founding a reason why "she shouldn t die" not because he doesn t want to (the real reason) but because "it would be to easy for her" (the lie to keep his own narrative of I don't like her). But after Annette trying to exit herself a second time Heiner also get his first "reality check" and will say "the one that should go to an asylum is me not her"
Now a lot of people won't understand what Annette did wrong, "ignorance is not something that you should be blame of" I do agree at some point. But Katherine story show you more than what happen to understand "what is Annette ignorance". She was blinded by her father but didn't want to see anyway and she goes as far as using the same behavior as her father. In Katherine story (with her brother that was executed) we see Annette at an event, a gard speak to her father, she ask him what happen, he tells her "just someone acting up" later we see her at her balcony and she sees Katherine at the gate pleading, her friend (blond guy later in france) will ask what happen and she will reply "nothing just someone acting up". She will also use the same words of her father when she meets Heiner for the first time. This is why they say in the story that "she choose to be ignorant" she was in fact selfish and didn't want to see at all what was happening in others reality. She was superficial collecting shiny things and carefree. She didn't mind using the same words that her father use and she probably would become like her father at some point the "nothing else matter as long as we live well" type of mentality, the "who cares if people had die in a mission for us" type of person.
Heiner had twist his own thought of course, he compare Annette at frist to a piece of art and was expecting her to empathise with him, to bring him some kind of salvation, he was attach to that idea, "I don't mind if I am miserable and suffering because Annette will give me salvation" but she didn't, instead she was a "mini her father" this break him. Of course "nothing is a good reason to get your revenge" but let's be real "we wouldn't have a story otherwise" if there was any "twisted mind" and "twisted feelings" at first. But this is why Heiner after "brainwashing himself" with the thought of Annette being an angel, wanted now to "end" his obsession toward her by hating her instead.
Here I am not saying that "Annette was all wrong and Heiner is a saint" They both have their issue and this is why we get to see a toxic relationship between each other and there is a missunderstanding.
Now sometime past they go to the war, conversation are made and at some point they "understand each other perspective" they stop "making it all a themself problem I am your victim you are to blame" Annette like Heiner want to listen to the "otherside" pov. And they agree to put that missunderstanding behind in order to focus on the now. Now it doesn t mean that they are back together yet. They are friends at first and it took a long time if you look at the years they give you before they start a "love relationship" at this point we know as reader that they will end up together a lot of people state that Annette forgave him and take him back too easly. But Heiner comes back from war they aren t with each other, they speak with each other exchange letter then phone calls Heiner visit Annette they still arent together! What they show is the relationship starting over from 0. In those chapter we see that Annette speak about her feelings with Heiner and Heiner listen to her emotional needs, he doesn't control her, he is supporting her choice and so on. AFTER that they end up back together.
Soooo Seriously I don't know what people expect from a redemption arc. I wonder if in fact they doesn t want a redemption at all and stick to that idea of "nothing would be enough anyway" in that case "those type of story" is clearly not for you so why would you read them anyway you wont get any satisfaction out of it.
As for me this story is really good, the psychology in it is a 10/10 the development and the resolution of their issue 10/10, the fact that this story included a real war and show you the "real things" like "not knowing what could happen next" "people dying" not the kind of "magical story" where the ML appear slash with his sword say a "cool reply" and everything is fine and he is also forgiven btw.. this add to the story soo much 10/10 all of it seriously 10/10 from me, and now in my top 3!
This story goes in my top 3!!!
The story 10/10
The art 10/10
FL 10/10
ML 10/10 (but we know its a lie and deserve more)
All of it is sooo good!! If you are into "obsessive possessive yandere" romance you will like it for sure, but I like how the story doesn't just revolve arround romance, there is actually a story with real issues then another story with real issues and so on including the relationship! I was waiting religiously for each chapter when it was on going I do recommended it if you like this type of flag XD
This story is soooo well writen.
This is not a love story be aware of that while reading. This is psychological. And it do so well that even the reader will be "play by it".
If you are sensitive with violence and "gore" this is not a story for you.
But you ll get it really soon with the first chapter.
I think the "psychology" used is soooo well done I never found a story that picture "violence" so well.
I was a victim at some point in my life so seeing a story with a lot of element that you go through in those kind of cycle, don't get me wrong but I like it a lot it was like healing for me somehow XD
Now I will spoiled a little bit so don't read if you didn't see that story!
The scene with Bum looking at the door, I had the exact same experience like the door is soooo close but so far at the same time those are the kind of thought you would have a lot! And this was soooo well express in that story!
When Bum try to make him a soup and ended up eating it instead. Personaly I didn t go that far but you should know that this kind of thought will happen when on survival mode, your brain start to think "how can I survive and protect my life" those kind of thought seriously scared me sooo much and it is later that I learn it was completly normal and how your brain think like that at some point. When this was included in the story I couldn't help myself How much this story is "real fact"!
The first time you are allowed to go outside with supervision.
The way Bum tried to protect Sangwoo once at the police station all of those kind of behavior is what happen in those kind of relationship EVERY ONE OF THEM!
And when I said that it will also play with you, I m pretty sure I am not mistaken when I say "you also were stress for those two when they were at the police station and every time the police is near Sangwoo, and you were happy and relieved when Sangwoo wasn t arrested" Seeee SEEEEE this is how you would act as a victim you will try to protect you abuser and try to handle the situation by yourself like if you were trap in a bubble and this "atmosphere" you are right in it while reading the story. You may even hope Sangwoo get some help at some point, you will empathize with him, you'll hope he'll be oki once at the hospital and go back at his place in his everyday live with Bum.
You may start to think that Bum is the one to save him.
THIS STORY WAS WRITEN BY A GENIUS IN PSYCHOLOGY!
10/10
We could think it is strange that a victim would like this story this much but it was helpfull in a lot of ways, I could see the pattern I saw on another light, to give you an example like even if the psychologist told me that it was normal to have those kind of thought about "how should I kill him so I can escape" I was very asshame I thought that I was in fact violent and shouldn't even think about that ever. Seeing it in that story I was supporting Bum I did understand why he did have those thought and wish he could escape, I mean it help me not being so hard with myself because at some point you are just trying to survive. Also I made my brother read it so he could understand my point of view of course I didn't lived with a serial killer who had a thing for his mom XD and of course I didn't have my chin open from one side to the other, but the cycle, the thinking process and the fact that even the reader will get their brain mess up, it was easier for me to explain every part of it!
This story deserved a prize! Not only for picturing abuse so well but it makes you feel soooooo many emotions you will want to know "what next" until the end. The art is good, everything! This story is a masterpiece in itself!
Personaly this type of story is too cliché with its romance, but the story line isn't that bad like "the idea" is good and this is why I didn't drop it sooner. If you are into that kind of romance like where every line and event is what you can expect from a romance then this is probably a good story for you. In fact I m dropping it but I am a bit sad because I won t know what will happen with the story in itself, but the romance is reaaally too much for me and I don't enjoy the story as I should. So yeah until now "nice story" cliché romance I would recommend to people who have that kind of taste!
