picked this up after seeing a lot of pages of it on Pinterest. read it because it looked unique and pretty. but every single fucking era of Pho just kept breaking me again and again. theres no tragedy tag on this and i usually skip anything that has tragedy. genuinely thought that after that 10000 years era pho will get her revenge and it will be a satisfying ending. heck even when that spaceship came i thought phos would get on the pebble with them but nooo. that being said the ending did suit a story like this. however i will only ever recommend this to people who have stronger hearts. this was a beautiful story but an awful experience.
I know in some sense this story is trying to redeem the mother but no matter what i can not find it in me to like her. and with that last chapter i HATE HER EVEN MORE. so youre telling me EVEN WHEN SHE WAS LOOKING AT HER DAUGHTER ABOUT TO BE BURNED ALIVE ALL SHE COULD DO WAS THINK ABOUT HERSELF?????? wtf man. even that last part where she was realising that her daughter loved her it felt so self centred???? It doesn’t even show that SHE loves her daughter it just shows that she wants to be loved in general. i feel like the author needs to dedicate some more chapters from the mothers point of view and show us that she REALLY is haunted by what she had done in her past life because everytime i see this bitch all sparkly and giving her daughter MORE TRAUMA BTW (assassination attempts, seeing her mom almost die, being brought up in the castle by EVERYONE but the mom, literally, the step dad is spending more time with her than her own mom, the fear of leaving her loved ones at some point) i will lose it.
why does the best art have the worst stories
I don't remember too well, but at some point taekjoo manages to escape and goes back to Korea. Surprise surprise who was waiting there for him in his mother's hospital room. We get another grooming season, but at some point it gets better and I feel like Zhenya gets more genuine. (For example, he tries to "bond" with Tjs mom a lil and they go on vacation together after Tjs jobs etc.) I probably left out lot haha but it was an absolute mess and it's been quite a time since I last touched it.
I never comment unless its to complain how bad the story is. this is the first time im commenting because i love the story.
i absolutely love that the mc is naïve but also smart, she’s strong but also has her weakness. Most of all, I love her puppy like energy. It refreshing to see an mc go back in time and instead of being all cunning and overpowered they learn to be a better person. I think its also nice to see that FL in the past was very narrow minded but in her new life she starts learning about the society she lives in. 10/10









every time they show a glimpse of MC when he was a baby it breaks my heart
