Most of these pure drama romances are too much for me to bear. I like my romance stories pure and light-hearted. I can take the heavy stuff and even some NTR in light doses, but my heart can't take those generally.
With that said, so far(CH25), this is heavy stuff with the occasional humor. Everything is told through the male protagonist's eyes. This is a relatively young guy who fell in love with a beautiful lady at work, his boss in her mid-30s with a daughter. Our guy's thought process is scattered, confused, and he is completely being drawn to her like a moth to the
...
flame. I say "flame" not because she is some sort of evil trap but because his life and thoughts are somehow caught in a whirlpool with her as the center.
Manhwas are usually easier to read because they don't have as much dialogue as mangas, not to mention there is more detail to the art. The same principle holds true here. It's a breeze to read through, but if you're a guy like me and have read through stuff like this, and if you can begin to imagine the situation I've summarized above, and if you identify with our protagonist, the whole story gets your heart beating twice as fast and it gets very uncomfortable and tense. I'm not saying that's necessarily bad.
Overall, so far, this is a recommended read for guys who like the same kind of romance I prefaced at the beginning and are willing to go through an adventurous and tenuous ride.
EDIT:
After getting to chapter 33, I'm completely turned off with the MC. After all the encouragement from everywhere around him, including the girl herself, he chickens out in the worst possible way; by putting out a message like he's ashamed of introducing her to his mom. MC has lost the right to be a wimp a few chapters ago. I can clearly see what's gonna happen here now. Dropping rating and recommendation.
