As a fan of webtoon, I'm kinda not liking the adaptation much. Especially what they did with ep7/8 or rather the…
i agree with you. when we finally thought we had a pure evil women protagonist, they had to add these emotional layers (I'm really enjoying the drama too), which they would have never done if it was a man. infact even the audience wouldn't try to justify or humanise them. we could have had all the psycho edits instead of the sympathetic ones on tiktok rn. I'm kinda sad about that lol.
I was really hoping that the In Gang arc would be like the manhwa. Hwang In Yeop deserves that arc. To be able…
imo, more than it being a direct change in inkang's character, this one was brought about as a consequence of their decision to change ajin's character in the drama. in the manhwa she doesn't feel any emotions, no guilt. no bond with grandma. she's hardly human there but the drama has made her experience all of those. she's more human here, shows feelings at times.. so inkang's arc and end were adjusted to meet the emotional tangent of that choice.
can someone explain ahjin's strategy to get ingang to fall in love with her? coz he seemed super guarded and then…
get closer to grandma, act pitiful, make him feel guilty and show how vulnerable he is. and that she's the only one on his side who genuinely cares for him

i agree. what makes this drama so refreshing is that the story narrates the origin, rise and fall of a villain. and it's fun exactly for that reason. baek ajin is refreshing and COOLER cuz she is a villain, no punches held back.
the past was shown not for sympathy, but to understand. for the audience to learn the factors that forged the person baek ajin is. what made her.
countless dramas have done the love redeeming a person thing (the recent genie for instance) so it seems like people are attuned to expect the same. i hope the drama sticks to the webtoon plot though. on another note, maybe it will be fun for webtoon readers to watch the audience gradually realising too. looks like ajin's character is good at manipulating the audience off the screen as well lol
