@veronica I agree tbh I feel like the build up and depth his character had up until now felt for nought, he was so maniacal and cruel to get what he wants till now and his final conclusion is killing himself a character like his wouldn’t stoop so low and let his obsession go but then again I think the author was aiming for a good ending in a sense so as depraved as it may be, killing her would’ve been a realistic yet horrifying ending but I guess maintaining some semblance of freedom for the fl was needed to lol
I'm VERY picky with my manhwas/mangas it's very bad I know 😔 If you have any manhwa/manga recommendations feel free to share x
@oquax Yes!! I really despise this cliché "just wanting love". I see it almost every manhwa. It's also personal because I have absent affective empathy 😬. I literally do not find anyone important and truthfully, I only have utilitarian relationships all the time. So, to some extent, I could resonate with Inseop's inner-world. This.. was not a realistic portrayal of a man like this imo. If it went another way (which is the realistic pathway, the one you mentioned too) I would have loved the path where he actually killed her. I find that people are obsessed with the good ending and cliché stereotypes where characters end up falling in love. I know these type are made for the majority of readers and all, so it is very predictable. It's supposed to sell as a good story for a fanbase that loves stories this genre. There's a minority in society who actually do not form attachment due to brain function/neurology and no one manages to make a good character like that. Feeds into the cliché either evil/good. . I want complex grey cases.. I get fed black and white all the time.
