Dropped bc I feel like this dynamic is all wrong… these manhwas always have one main character chasing after the other to advance the story but i hate that it’s the MC that is seeking forgiveness from the ML and not the other way around. I get what ppl r saying that she’s forcing him to relive his trauma over and over again but this is addressed in the story… in fact the ENTIRE story addresses this by having her do all of this labor to help him get over the past, whereas what I and what I think a lot of other ppl r frustrated abt is that HER trauma is completely glossed over. What would have been more interesting and satisfying would be if the power dynamic was switched & once he realizes he has feelings for her, he has to come to the realization of what exactly he has DONE to her by killing her in each of their past lives & then actually reckon with it. Where SHE now has the power to withhold forgiveness & he has to convince her. Whereas it feels like the ML has the power this entire time & it’s very frustrating she’s literally bending over backwards to please this guy 24/7!!
Instead of the dynamic switching, the story chooses to make the conflict an external one (ppl outside of them r trying to keep them apart) rather than internal which is so uninteresting (I usually don’t enjoy love triangles but making the fiance straight up irredeemably evil was so boring!!!! He at least could’ve been a friend to the MC so she has someone she can rely on besides the ML, the source of her trauma?! She basically only has him, which is a whole other problem) & why does her being in love mean she can’t also be traumatized and fearful at the same time?? I feel like that kind of dynamic where she might love him/pity him but also involuntarily still feels some kind of fear when he’s nearby could’ve been so good and angsty guys…… ugh the potential
