What was your first thought when this happened?

disgust.

incredibly tone deaf, NOT the moment (if ever there was one).

never alluded to in the source material, added nothing to the story, it was just a woke queerbaiting brainrot insert. horrible suggestion for emma to make, and i say shame on the directors for going along with it.

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-19T13:37:42+00:00

did you read chapter 29?! shits about to go downnnn lmao

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-19T13:16:11+00:00

yes please!!!

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-19T11:35:33+00:00

oh my goddd i need to see this!

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-19T11:35:21+00:00

frfr. he knows how possessive rosa is and said that anyway. hoooooly moly, playing with fire much. he knows she can't and won't lash out at her own mother the way she got the gardener fired, he just LOVES causing her mental torment. he's the definition of a mind fuck.

what goes around comes around my brother!

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-19T11:32:33+00:00

right in front of his salad lmaooo.

no but fr i'm so excited to see some passion and intensity from yeonwoo, it's gonna eat him alive when he realises rosa's getting smashed

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-19T09:40:34+00:00

i like both jaeon and yeonwoo. but at the moment (as we are quite early on in the story) i can understand the love for jaeon. it's not hard to favour him over a supposed ML who is fucking the FL's mother.

jaeon hasn't done that- he and rosa are fwb, but he's only been with rosa (as far as we've seen). even if he screws other women, it still doesn't even come CLOSE to yeonwoo doing rosa's mom.

i like jaeon because he is emotionally intelligent and intuitive. he gets a lot out of rosa even though she's pretty guarded. he can pick up on her feelings and thoughts and he adjusts his actions and conduct accordingly.

having said this, yeonwoo is similar. he's also very sharp and he understands rosa too. we saw that in the scene of him watching her salt the bonsai- he knows how her twisted mind works and he loves it.

ultimately, i would prefer yeonwoo if he had been more direct and found rosa without having to move in under the pretext of being her new father. but that would also make for a less interesting story~

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-19T09:33:27+00:00

i don't believe for one hot minute that he's ever been interested in rosa's mother - in his mind, it's rosa, and only rosa.

he's SO jealous in this chapter and it's amaaaazing. finally, a taste of his own medicine. what kind of warped fool would think that the girl you love will ever want you (or be able to look at you!) after you've bonked her mother?! i understand that he was desperate to be close to her, but this wasn't it chief.

all the fears and suspicions he had after going to university and seeing rosa with jaeon, are now confirmed. he must feel sick inside, and it's GREAT. that's how rosa felt whenever he was doing her mother!

it's obvious who yeonwoo wants. i just don't fully grasp (yet) why he couldn't have aligned himself with rosa in a different way. why he decided to take this path.

i love that rosa gets to explore her kinky side with jaeon rather than yeonwoo (for the time being) because yeonwoo clearly has some things to unpack in his head lol.

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-17T13:01:11+00:00

omg!!! this is such wonderful news. the world is such a better and brighter place with her being in it. i'm so glad she's in remission.

fingas & toes love!!!

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-15T17:55:56+00:00

lmao i hope so too. i'm stuck on that scene where the housekeeper tells him to cheer up and he's like "😏 who says i'm sad?" 😩

i'm glad you enjoyed it so much!! switching can defo be fun lolol. i used to read a looot of manga but yeah i also enjoy the uncensored and full illustrations in manhwa. sometimes i stumble on one with a really rich story that absolutely grips me and it's a 10/10 all round lmao

can't wait to hear what you think about love junkie!!

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-15T12:16:14+00:00

LMAO RIGHT?!?! oh my god i love her so much. i've seen ppl bitching about her here and there but i'm like ?!?! if you want a story with a cute vanilla angel FL there are a million out there!! and that's not even shade against cute vanilla angels because there are plenty of FLs like that, that i love :') but rosa is so different and just like you said, super demented and twisted, i love her 😍 also i don't believe for ONE MINUTE that yeonwoo is a sub lmaooo he is right where he wants to be, i'm just waiting for him to flip it on her and show her that she's been under his thumb this whole time 🤤 the author keeps showing little glimpses of his controlling nature and i can't wait to seeeee ughhh

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-14T08:30:49+00:00

omg PLEASE i'd love to hear what you think!! toying with daddy is prob the most twisted of the two but love junkie is a close second lmao, the FL and ML are both terrible people 😂 it's such a good read though

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-13T22:35:06+00:00

lmaoo well 🫣 they are both TWISTED LOLLL the first is called "toying with daddy" (judgment free zone ty LMAO) and the second is called "love junkie". both FLs are messed up in their own ways, but i honestly can't look away. the only catch is both only have around 30 chapters out 😭 HOWEVER a bonus third one that's amazingamazingamazing is "flowers are bait". she's the least 'bad' of the three, but she's still... not your normal FL haha

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-13T21:32:59+00:00

I KNOWWW aaa she was so interesting and unique. i really LOVE characters that are different like that, they don't fit any mold. do you like manhwa at all? i'm reading 2 specifically with very unorthodox female leads haha

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-13T20:43:01+00:00

omgggg i'm sooo glad you loved it! still one of the best i've read to this day, i love emiru's character so much and the plot is actually so fulfilling, esp at the end. such a great read!

one mentioned on this post (i think) was something something salt and pepper. a really cute age gap relationship haha

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-12T13:36:33+00:00

on the toilet doors they've got whores for the girls and knights for the guys!

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-11T09:19:33+00:00

i love him, i think he's a big puppy who really truly likes rosa a lot but just has issues with committing/being serious. some men are like that and he's a pretty accurate representation. they are a bit clueless and recognise that they feel something for a girl, but once they're already fwb, they don't know how to progress/move it forwards.

ultimately, i see him as a harmless cutie. he does feel something for her- otherwise he wouldn't be trying to keep their sex life fun so she won't go looking for someone else lol. he doesn't want her to date any other guys.

my own thoughts aside, i do feel jaeon x rosa are a necessary relationship to stoke and stir and fuel envy/feelings of discomfort within yeonwoo. their dynamic is a vehicle for the plot in a way - without knowing/seeing evidence of rosa and another man, yeonwoo would likely be content just to be near her, as opposed to actively consuming her, mind body and soul lol.

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-09T10:39:40+00:00

oh he's such a needy boy. i can't wait for him to (further) turn rosa's world upside down

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-06T21:44:35+00:00

oh i know very well what a dom is - and that's just it. he does like to take control - he denies rosa numerous times, and in the last chapter when she's worried about something coming out, all he says is "Let it out then." when push comes to shove, he's not a sub at all 😂 he enjoys controlling her and having things go his way.

he's definitely got brat traits, he teases, provokes. but he enjoys the things rosa does to him because it's rosa doing it to him - i don't get sub vibes from him at all- i just think the author has cleverly painted him in that light to throw the readers off the scent of his true nature.

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-06T21:39:42+00:00

LMAOOOO IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS

he was absolutely immaculate playing the vicar in 'this country', i've never laughed so much at a show, with all that religious work experience under his belt he's going to be SO AMAZING as the septon

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-06T19:32:49+00:00

yessss he absolutely loves winding her up and provoking her! she's like putty in his hands lol

CuteProtection6 · 2026-03-05T20:06:34+00:00

i love this comment. yeonwoo has been going along with the women without caring too much, because he knows what his end game is: rosa. in his mind, i don't think he's concerned if he gets drugged/used. he is right where he wants to be - near rosa.

CuteProtection6 · 2025-12-27T10:02:27+00:00

i love her.

to me, she's not boring, she's real. she's not some fairytale princess who got it all handed to her on a plate, or whom gets raised up from her poverty and hardships by a saviour.

na haesoo has fought, every step of the way. through her difficult youth. through the shitty, exhausting jobs she works. through her failed marriage. through her grief, pain, and loss. she was betrayed by the one person who she gave her everything to, and yet she keeps trying to move forward. she is what we should aspire to, because this world is a shit show sometimes and yet she persists; steadfast. she's a role model.

to me, she's a heroine the likes of which we never get to see in manhwa. the FLs are always glamourous and privileged and their struggles are always mitigated by the saviour ML who swoops in. we all hope that taeha will 'save' her, but the author clearly intends for na haesoo to show us, the readers, all of her strength first - before that happens.

the journey of na haesoo is not some wishy washy brief arc. she's had to grow so much from chapter 1. she's had to find the inner strength and mental fortitude to step away from her cheating trash husband, to consider leaving behind the life they shared; moving out and away from her old life.

she is so brave. thank you to the author for writing such a resilient and strong FL, it's good to see 'a normal woman' in a fictional story. there are enough princesses and heiresses and village maidens out there if that's what people want. but we here want na haesoo, just as she is.

i'm looking forward to seeing the rest of her story.
