I just need somewhere to vent my frustation, because I was forced to watch this together with my mom. Why dont you escape then? Because I liked to stay around my mom, rather than stay alone.

First of all, I'm from a loving family, and the movie portray FL's mother as a villain, hard on and degrade her daugther in every ways, favor the cousin. I know that it's FL parent fault that left her for 15 years, but they do try to make up for it. Except for FL Mom, the others, aside from aunt in law and grandma, they all spoil her rotten, and even defend her against FL mom. Imo it's only right if there's one person who try to educate her into a well behaved person. FL herself is smart, but she's the type that others can't wrong her even the slightest, she really has no manners (well she accept this point but doesnt seem to wish to improve her manner at all), quick to counter others with strong heroic speech, which in some scenarios. I absolutely think the same as FL mother that with her style, it's worrisome if one day she's gonna offend someone, and put her whole family into deep pit. So her mother tried to prevent her from marrying 2 times. "A Blind, pushover, occasionally smart" is what I would define this FL I think.

Another thing, the supporting characters are really unrealistic, the villainous princess is unrealistically s*upid and vengeful, the emperor is very doting to ML, the first guy FL engaged to is a scholar but somehow very naiive and s*upid.

ML, no comment aside from he's very ruthless when doing work, and head over heel when it's FL. He's seems to be a perfect ML aside from falling in love with FL within 3 EPs.

It was the hero who didn’t even ask or confess anything and just manipulate her into a getting engaged. How is he allowed to get mad at her for not being loving enough? How does that make any sense?
