I stg if I see one more comment defending this asshole prime about how he didn’t want it kill her in the last life. Bitch you were the reason she she was in that position in the first place. She wouldn’t have been in that position if he had provoked her in the first place. I swear the plot is manga is going nowhere. Also I wanna point out that The female characters are the only one that is suffering in this life. Both of them carrying traumas that’s literally caused by the same fucking asshole while he’s skipping around with jealousy issues living a clean slate. Anwaay, what bothers me is Instead of working together and overcoming this trauma together, theyre pitted against each other. Also don’t hate me for saying this but I feel sympathy for jieun. Imagine traveling to that time period With a mindset of a modern day teenager and then you’re told that you need to marry this guy or you die because how else is she going to survive in that world with literally no skill set. And then to top it all off this fucking asshole who’s saying sweet things to her and telling her how much he loves her and then to abandon/blame her later on because she can’t handle state affairs. Well no shit Sherlock, anyone with half a brain would question the capabilities of some chick materializing out of thin air. I guess for this guy, he really said “qualification schmalification, let’s make her the empress” For the MC she has the chance to rebuild things with her family and making friendships along the way in her world. Whereas Jieun no matter what she does she still travels to a completely strange world at the end of the day, with no friend or allies. I can’t blame her for doing what she thinks is necessary to survive.

I don't support the prince but spoiler : the prince is a victim too
He's been drugged and manipulated by duke zenna so he's cruel to tia, the drug ruined his mind and turned him into a mad man, it made him easily got angry and also put him under hallucination, the duke made it worse by kept telling him lies about tia, but even in that state of mind, he never wants tia to die
Fall in love with jieun and make jieun the empress are also the result of the drug and the manipulation (it's all planned by duke zenna), the prince in the first timeline is basically just the duke's puppet, he's not in his right mind and he basically can't consent in that condition, so he's making stupid move by making jieun the empress
But when tia died, that probably woke him up a bit, losing tia opened his eyes about who's the one he really loves so the hallucination of him loving jieun suddenly got ruined and jieun become the new target of his madness
It's really frustrating for me since i hate the prince and i really want to blame him but i can't because of the spoiler
But in my opinion, tia is stupid to fall in love with the prince again, the prince might not be at fault but tia should be still traumatized by the bad memories and choose to love other man, i still don't understand how she can fall for him when she remembers her past (she also doesn't even know the truth that the prince is a victim yet when she started to get attracted to him in the second timeline)
And i totally agree that tia and jieun should work together, jieun is blinded by her hatred toward tia just because she was suffered because she kept being compared to tia in her last life, but jieun's hatred toward tia is just as stupid as tia's love toward the prince, really doesn't make sense

Being a victim does not exonerate someone from the crimes they did after all. The poison and lies only worked because he was fully ready to hate on her with his prejudices and jalousy. It's also very strange that the poison only worked when he was with Tia. He might have come to dislike Ji-eun but even full of poison he did not target her the way he did with Tia, not others for that matter, when Ji-eun was in fact the one who spent the more time with him. All in all, the beginning of the second timeline clearly show that regardless of the poison and Zena he was going to at least neglect her and use her all the same. It's no wonder that most readers still hate him and don't accept him. By chapter 131 what did he do to make Tia love him and trust him? That is right, nothing. All the development came in fact from Allen and Carsein's efforts. We have no reason to believe he changed that much nor that he is more deserving than other characters of an happy ending. I don't like Ji-eun but can admit that the root of the problems was and is Ruve and Ruve alone. He is an antagonist more than he is a love interest in both timelines.
