   I don’t know why some people dislike this manhwa so much. Okay, the postures of the characters are sometimes a bit stiff (especially the male lead), but the art isn’t THAT bad. When it comes to funny faces, it’s absolutely hilarious even.
   Also the story is interesting enough for a classic time-rewind theme.
   Not your typical “female lead trips over her own feet, is in danger of hurting herself – and suddenly the male lead pops out of thin air just in time to save her” tropes or kidnappings, no poisonings for which the female lead is framed, no flashbacks of the cruel youth of the male lead who was shunned and neglected by his parents, no days-long unconsciousness of the heroine and all the cliché jaddajaddas so far (as of chapter 30).

      I also have to add that I am not sure why this HAD to be a time-travel-story at all. If the female lead had just realized or had been told (like by the duke’s men) in time that that “admirer” of hers was a snake, she would have returned to her fianceé and then things would have very likely turned out the exact same way.
      One thing that I really like is that next to all the scheming of evil enemies and the lead characters’ maneuvers to outwit them, this story focuses a lot on the couple-dynamics of female lead and male lead including their intimate relationship from very early on, which is quite refreshing 🙂

   Subpar art, and nobody defend this sht by saying it’s hard to make a manhwa, because news flash it’s THEIR JOB. I’m tired of people defending mediocrity 🤦‍♀️

      I am defending this not-so-“shit”, because everyone has different tastes. And no, not everyone creates manhwas as a job, some simply draw them as a hobby. Even if artists get paid, in some countries they are still working poor PLUS prone to mistreatment. I don’t think someone who doesn’t pay a cent for reading manhwas should so condescending look down on people who give their best!

   Art is not my style. ML is drawn so weirdly but its not to bad to drop it bc of it. Story is nothing new but still little bit different. I dropped it at chapter 7. FL is acting like teenager even thought she is supposed to be 26 mentally. ML is treating his subordinates like a trash. Yes it can be to soon but I dont thing that it will be better. I recommend this only to somebody who have lot of free time or love naive weak FL.
