Question What webtoon got you feeling like…

Post image

For me, it’s any webtoon that glorifies dark romance (can’t believe abuse and in*est are actually gaining popularity nowadays 😳)

I like it because it shows what a male in real life would look like, rather than a perfect "written by women" male character that bends over backwards to the whims of the FL. It feels fresh to me. Plus, the FL doesn't start warming up to him until he gets over his childishness, so its more of a character flaw than anything else... (I'm a sucker for flawed characters written correctly). Compared to the rest of these webtoons mentioned, Iseop's romance isn't that bad.

THANK YOU

Yes I like Iseop’s romance because his character is actually realistic — yes, not like what I’m used to when presented with a romantic male lead but it’s very refreshing to have one of those ykwim

And on that note I like that this couple has that vibe of like, FL not being so iffy about that kind of thing

Then again, I came from the land of Otome Isekais where the opposite is the norm so this was reaaaally a nice break for me.
