Is a ginseng really that rare enough to get scolded by your mum for that? Like genuinely idk, don't people gift ginseng away all the time in gifts?
There's a big difference between cultivated or harvested ginseng vs wild ginseng. Wild ginseng is rarer to find and also said to be much more potent from your typical store bought or even farmed ginseng. It's a huge thing and common trope in Korean media. But yeah the amount of times I've had to see the word 'ginseng' ... It's starting to show up in my dreams I stg
for more context: ginseng is expensive, but wild ginseng is rare and can sell for thousands. some roots have been sold for anywhere between $17,000 and $400,000 USD. it grows in very specific conditions and takes 7 years to reach any medicinal value, which is quite long, and has only become more rare due to rampant overharvesting.
Bruh can the mc just break it off and move on or sumn. I'd rather he find ways to make him jealous than go clingy dingy annoy him even more or something. If only the mc was manipulative enough to mindbreak the ml into only wanting him. Scumbags like the ml deserve it. But I guess that's a whole other story that's not this one.










Ngl I would've asked the mercs to pretend that they got the thing and go back to the assembly place so the ml and the gang can catch the perpetrators, tho idk if the curse would still activate ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
