" it isn't the thought of you being ostracized by your peers that keeps me up at night...but the fear that you'll one day come to regret isolating yourself like this. And the moment you come to that realization...you'll find the depth and weight of your regret many times heavier than most" ~ senior brother (from Return of The Blossoming Blade)

It wasn't that master didn't tell me because he was trying to hide what happened. But it was too painful for him to bring it up.

"Memories are the only thing that's last in the end. Maybe that''s why humans are so obsessed with leaving traces of themselves. Because when they look at those traces carved into a surface like wounds it brings back the memories of that day," MC of (The Stellar Swordsman)

Act Like You Love Me ~ Review
Tumblr media
Where we read it? Webtoon
Completion status: Complete
_/10
Categories: Romance. Comedy. Modern Setting. Entertainment Business.
Warning: Includes misunderstandings and a love triangle
Ji-eon is jobless and apartment hunting. During her tenure as a cashier(among other jobs), a customer paid with a doll…What? Turns out this doll has the ability to control famous Korean actor Doyun Nam. After applying to be an extra on set, she runs into *drumroll please….Doyun Nam. He mistakes her for an assistant and orders her around, she loses her spot as a film extra and is sent home. Ji-eon goes home that day calculating how much she spent. Pissed, she takes it out on the poor doll.
Excerpt from episode one:
Ji-eon shook the Minji doll aggressively, “How dare you make me work for free?! Get on your knees and beg for forgiveness!! I can’t believe you didn’t offer me one of the coffees! I bought them with my own money! Lick my toes you ungrateful jerk!” She continued, letting out stress in a healthy way.
Out of nowhere her doorbell rings. It must be the landlady coming to complain about the noise level. She opened the door and lo behold, the centre of her frustrations kneeled at her doorstep, bowing.
“Why- Why am i- …Sorry!! I’m so sorry! Please forgive me!!!!”
“HUH?!”
Our Thoughts ?
A great binge read now that it’s complete. The character’s had unique personalities and evident flaws which added to their development, Doyun’s overcoming of his anxiety (although that could have been handled better), Ji-eon’s little display of selfishness when he got the opportunity to go abroad and Se-in’s overall lack of social abilities and empathy (to an extent). The progression of the relationship seemed realistic as all characters faced relatable problems for the everyday worker and though they had some…frustrating arcs, and classic miscommunications/misunderstandings (Good lord there were so many) and lack of communication, the eventual resolutions were satisfying.
It was a little disappointing Se-in didn’t find love, the author cleared that up in the afterword so I wish him luck in his love life, but they could have at least have given the man a cat though. On the other hand, I’m so glad Sahye, Doyun’s obsessive ex didn’t get a redemption arc. After what she put Mcs and the guy who liked her through, it didn’t make sense to redeem her because her wrong-doings were purely out of selfish motives. For that, I applaud the creators because it’s common to see characters get redemption arcs or happy endings they didn't deserve.
It was nice to see that Ji-eon finally got a job that she enjoyed instead of relying solely on Doyun for income, it helps bring a little more balance to their relationship.
One thing that took away from the story however was the ending which we thought was rather unsatisfactory. They’re engaged so why didn’t we see a wedding? It might be a bit early in their engagement but a time skip isn't that hard… Even though the spin-offs cleared up some things, readers  (us) were deprived of a wedding scene. We could have at least gotten wedding attire in the afterword :(
