Why is it always harem like

I don't wanna sound mean. I actually do like this manhwa to have read till it's latest update. But my only question is why is the mc's companion always females... I mean it looks too forced.like the author is trying to create as many potential interests for the mc. Maybe I'm forgetting a lot of plot cuz it's been so long since I read this before the hiatus. But I have always felt this while reading this manhwa. Why is there a need of annoying female characters - who he himself calls baggage. First the red-head.. in between I think there were two-three more such characters. And now the new Korean girl.

I wish it was more versatile. We could see more of male characters instead of this extensive harem like thing. That's just my opinion tho. I still like the manhwa and will continue till the end.

    To appeal to the asian male fantasy of having a bantering relationship with a woman who is so amazed with their skill and respects them but feels comfortable and safe enough with them that they nag them occasionally but will ultimately do what they want.

    I’ve found many great Manhwa ruined by forced harems.

    Every helpful or significant character somehow ends up being female, and they all develop romantic feelings for the protagonist.

    It’s frustrating and feels overused at this point.

    err ?? so is schweizer, martial fist king guy, and ricky women to u ? what's wrong with the helpful characters being women it's not like they all developed feelings for the dude like the great shaman and snow don't like his personality at all lol. iirc, it's just redhead and iris who have romantic feelings for him. he doesnt even reciprocate redhead's lol but he is mean for calling her baggage. they all admire him though, beniang, fist king, redhead. all of them admire him, even the men

    that's nonsense lol, i know more successful manhwa without harem than with harem itself, only people on webtoon will love this troupe for sure, i already liked the mc he doesnt go for minor but author says otherwise. it is truly just made for author's fantasy, not for us the big audience

    Its not nonsense. The target audience of stories like these are mostly asian audience, mainly koreans because well, theyre the paying audience. International audience mostly read on pirated sites man. These kinda sites are banned there. Japan and Korea bans this kinda sites. Youre thinking successful in an internartional way, but why do you think this kinda trope is popular in manwha and mangas? Because this kinda trope is targeted towards paying audiences. Thats why a lot of manwhas and manga have the same plots, because that kinda plot is what pays the bills.
