The person I despise the most in all this shit is her father. Her own flesh and blood abused her in favour of his affair child...it must be one of those situations where he had an inferiority complex towards his wife so she cozied up with some cheap bitch and ended up favoring the child he had with said bitch because MC reminds him of his wife

Some novels/manga/manhwa/etc feel like rage bait...I feel like this is in the same category as those imbecile tiktokers who purposely mispronounce words or use products the wrong way to elicit a strong negative reaction from those who consume their content. This genre of manhwa feel like that but with more effort. Rather than a 2 minute video, it's a whole production to publish rage bait stories

the psyche of the seme is so interesting because it captures the essence of toxic people: they act like they're better than common folk who fall in love and commit to one person. Then, they meet someone that they perceive as out of reach. They start wantingsaid person but do they try to become worthy or them? nooooo that'd be too healthy for these assholes. They just want to drag the person to their level. Then, they supposedly "fall in love" and act like a victim because the person who never wronged them or promised them love didn't just jump into their arms. The penultimate stage of this mess is the self-pity and the realisation that they went about this the wrong way. That gives readers some hope that they might change but nope, the final stage is doubling down and making every wrong decision possible to isolate the subject of their obsession all in the name of love...
Tale as old as time...but hey, I haven't dropped this yet so, they must be doing something right (that thing being the art in this case)

whenever I reread stories with garbage semes like this, it always annoys me how they spend 99% of the story being assholes and then get a happy ending because ukes can't have enough self-respect. The dude literally asked uke to apologize to the guy who raped him by shoving his dick in uke's mouth and blamed uke for the entire incident...seme is truly scum of the earth.
I can handle a redemption arc for a seme who was an asshole and rejected uke in a cruel way but there can be no redemption for someone who blames a rape victim
Lol as soon as they started taking the stroll on the beach, I was like "a paparazzi can take a photo of this innocent little walk and spin it however they want" and then this girl was dumb enough to kiss him in such a public setting.....sigh
