Twips want to read (All 287)

Ppl complaining about seeing backstory or focusing on other characters like Mincheol isn't a main character. The endgame couple doesn't have to be the only main characters. I think it's good that Mincheol has a real personality. It's different from other stories where the ex is just a piece of shit just because. (also both men are heavily flawed)
You can feel bad for a person but also not tolerate the way they behave. It seems like in the past Kang Mincheol was a little hot headed, arrogant, kinda reminds me a little of Korra from LoK. But he definitely loved Hae-soo a lot. It seems like the financial situation they're in might be because of something that happened to her and he was willing to sacrifice so much for her. But of course finances are the #1 reason why people get divorced.
I cant completely hate Mincheol, he still has that young boy who is kind, selfless and loyal inside of him; but we all have to lay in the beds we make and he sucks for cheating and tearing down Hae-soo's self esteem.
The author wants to tell a complete story so let her do that. The pace is fine, its just that the format and the episodic releases makes it seem longer than it actually is. If this was a novel it would definitely seem shorter.
Finally someone gets it!!
These chapters are in Mincheols POV but they are very centered around Na Haesoo. We learn about her father, what other people thought of her back in school, how Mincheol used to treat her, why they most likely got in debt,... I could go on.
We get a lot of insight on Mincheol's personality but not much else. I mean, we don't know about his family life at all or what he wants to go to college for even though its brought up a lot. Everything we've seen thus far has some connection to Haesoo.
Haesoo has lived more of her life with Mincheol than without, so it makes sense that we have to know him to know her.
shoot me or whatever but i think this is a more interesting plot than her and Taeha having sex and Taeha being another illegitimate child chaebol with a strained family relationship. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
yup agree! also, the point is to understand why haesoo tolerated all that BS for years. Some of these comments calling it a waste of a chapter is funny to me idk lol
Thank you!
its giving the manhwa more substance than sex , maybe ppl just aren't used to that
Nah, I think it's just that most of the audience here is below 15)) and also the Western world view is much more black and white, good vs evil than Asian - it can be a good thing and a bad thing (▰˘◡˘▰)
Just had another thought - that's it's actually very curious how the Asian worldview is more nuanced and cliche at the same time - like on one hand - everyone has to fit a particular box - but on the other - it's much more acceptable in storytelling that "bad people" can sometimes do "good thing", and the other way around, and good characters can turn bad and so on...
Well when much of the western world has been ruled by christian authoritarianism you dont get much nuance
Yeah - it's a totally different way of thinking ^^
