i don’t know whether i finished this story or this story finished me. i was shocked by the opening and ending chapters for completely different reasons, but i can’t deny that it was so beautiful. i really thought i had stumbled upon yet another red flag manhwa with how everything started. i almost dropped it. historicals aren’t really my thing, but i’m so glad i was proven wrong on both fronts.
the characters, the story, the pacing, the background reveals, they made everything feel so lifelike. it felt like i was there, watching them live, love, and hurt. maybe that’s why it hit so hard when everything that happened… happened. i was crying so much i ended up sobbing even though they were right there in front of my salad now that i think about it, i probably looked stupid. i could’ve paused the read, could’ve taken a break. but i just had to finish it asap, before it completely wrecks my mental health.
this story didn’t just tug at my heartstrings, it played a whole damn symphony with them. it caught me off guard, wrecked me emotionally, and still somehow left me grateful that i stuck through it. i’ll now be thinking about this for the rest of my waking days
