For the Goddesses: For Daphne

Thank you!!

Try reading crimson ocean

I have! That's a good one, too. I liked the sorta plot twisty ending.

God I wanna squish his cheeks so bad

author already confirmed to korean readers that she is A WOMAN , stop getting too confortable over spreading misformation about author's gender. Also you all throwing male gaze world at every thing nowadays

word* i meant

the only thing i kinda like about this is how Na Haesoo was pretty physically ready to move on after the whole minsh8t situation lol alot of the male gale driven manhwas make the FL wait forever to move on physically to perserve innocence or some shii but my girl was ready LMAO

Calm down. I'm allowed to have opinions but I appreciate you educating me on the author's gender. I don't pay attention to their socials and don't know a thing about them.

I stand by my statement that there's parts of this does seem to draw from the male gaze. And FYI women can write from the male gaze too. So, maybe that's what this author is doing.

1. FL is regularly objectified and treated like and object. (Extremely skinny waist, emphasized chest, thigh gap)
2. FL doesn't seem to have much agency ATM and sort of exists as a prize/trophy for ML.
3. FL character arc is sort of minor compared to how she affects the male characters.

There's several more things I could list, but I don't want to be a snob about it.

The author is a woman and you're right.
Women and girls can partake to their oppression by appealing to patriarchy.
The author has lots of internalized misogyny and the way she draws her female characters is to indoctrinate women and girls to practise sexist, racist and pedo beauty standards to "enhance their beauty "

Is there a novel for this? Spoiler pleaaase

Yes. There's 3 novels and it's completed.

Succhhhhh a good read but just FYI they're apart for a massive part of the series. Major espionage and intrigue from our girl when she goes off to work as a spy. Ryan is not pleased, but she's a super strong and independent MC and can mostly save herself.

I bought the translated novels online, they're like $9 a piece, but it could be different. The novel has also been TL'd by a few scan teams.

Thank you for letting us know!!

Where did you buy the novels?

I bought the ebooks off Amazon a few months ago. I just looked and they're still on my kindle, but they're no longer pulling up on Amazon's actual website.

Do you have a NovUp act? There's links to a translation team's fully TL'd story there.

It is on the complete opposite end of the spectrum lmao dangerous convenience store, I couldn't pinpoint ahjuicys personality. I wanted to call him nonchalant but I don't even know if it's that. He was just super quiet and I feel like both of their personalities were kind of underdeveloped. I would have loved to have seen more emotion from him but I get that was just his character

Yasssss. Ahjuicy was the original expressionless top. Like JJ from Drivers High. Lots of feeling but nothing shows on the face. He's more of an actions speak louder than expressions man.

Following this cuz i wna knowww
