FINALLY! After rummaging novelupdates and going through countless novels and dropping them eventually, I finally found something that might just hold my attention until the end.

It's still quite early and I haven't yet caught up with all the translated chapters BUT I felt like a person lost in the desert that finally found an oasis. This novel is right up to my tastes.

We have an ML who's like a robot - high IQ low EQ kind of person that lives a rigid life following a bunch of algorithms he ingrained... more>> in his head. As usual, the FL, hardworking and smart, is gearing up to be a character I will potentially root for. Anyways, for now I like where the story is headed and as I said, this is the kind of novel that fits my tastes almost perfectly. The translation is also done well. Another underrated novel I am gonna obsess over. <<less

Thank you, WordExcerpt for choosing this and translating. The blurb is a little vague and I just tried to read because I liked how @caramelaxel described it. Thanks to novel gods it didnt disppoint me. I love this Korean novel; I like how the story is unfolding. I like how ML and FL have both the strengths and weaknesses; ML like a robotic boss since he is genius in terms of computer decoding who also the strenght of our FL. However, our ML has mental problem/illness which happened to be... more>> his weakness. Our FL has this family realtionship weakness which her baggae intil now. That particular family relationship is what they connected most. The relationship is subtle. The yandere characteristic of the ML aint that suffocating. I like how FL is smart and how she is still modest. Everything is perfect. <<less

An intelligent and manipulative ML who uses all means to get the FL dependent on him. Plots breaking her away from her fiancé. There is great sexual chemistry between the two leads and ML always trying to exploit her vulnerability.
