I also think they will move it to the sides which is kinda strange since its a crucial part of the plot and literally the main reason why everything happened. I didn't liked those changes too it feels kinda rushed imo
That's what I thought, too.
Even if they move it to the sides it just makes the story worse. They already cut some context here and there but as it is now people who only read the manhwa are bamboozled as to why this two even like each other bc everything as of now looks shallow asf, I get an adaptation can't be always be a copy of the LN but they literally took all the depth ╥﹏╥
They totally changed it from the novel… In the novel, the ML had to remain mostly in his wolf form to fully heal from the stabbing, and the MC nursed him back to health. During this time, the MC took on some of responsibilities of the watcher. I wanted to see him (literally) barking out orders in his little puppy form. :( The novel also showed the MC working to locate Park Geontae. There’s a whole discussion with the MC and Youngbae about what Park Geontae’s been up to, and how he’s tracking him. This was important because it kind of lead to the next conflict between the couple. This was all in the main part of the novel, but maybe it’ll be moved to the the side stories?
