Obviously this manhwa is around the most realistic out there in comparison to other historical romances, what with the natural colored hair, tame neutral dresses and lack of magical powers, but even putting that aside, I love how realistic the characters are written. I love how the confines of their social status are constantly affecting her and the other women of the story, both in public and in private. How none of the characters are particularly malicious, but merely looking out for their own interests. How families aren't just the side characters, but a large part of how the main character are forced to live in their society .
Just the scene with him reading the letter kind of moved me! He's not this apathetic murder child of most historical manhwas, he's a little kid, who's big sister is about to leave him behind and it makes him so sad :,((
