I disagree with that. The male lead isn't a simp or pathetic he's simply a character who deeply cares and understands…
The writers are pathetic. Not the ML. It's not being misinterpreted, it's really too much. The relationship is not on equal footing. I can manage even it's 60:40. But it's 90:10. All FL do is act pathetic and apologize and everything went like it never happened. Then she do it again. Not blaming the FL too but it's the writers, and also if you read the novel they did a better characterisation of FL there. It's the drama writers who are messing things up.
A reasonable criticism is necessary, and when you unload that from your heart, it makes the future eps more watchable. And i think this platform serves that purpose.
fl is like her ex , he break up with her with a message , she used her friend to do so with ml , and I bet he…
ML was a rebound, and will later become a backup plan for her, since he is too nice and caring. Since it's not a realistic drama, the writer will present this obnoxious behaviour of FL in a romantic way.
Does MLs in chinese drama really have no self respect? At Least hold yourself for a while, give her the chance…
In my opinion, you pursued her sincerely, giving your all but she rejected you giving any reason(maybe it was reasonable from her POV). Now you should backup a little, let her come to you, even if it takes time. We would abhor this behaviour if any SML doing this with FL.
True, it was the guilt binding her. If it would be love she could come out of his toxic family anytime and should embrace him. Afterall she become adult then.
Yeah the Second half was better. Still she was hesitating till the last moment. At the end ML had to confess again. Her brother and her whole family treated him like a doormat, sometimes in front of her but she didn't say a word(example, scene in the shopping mall with her brother).
