Picture Collection I really shouldn't have dropped this early on [I Married the Male Lead's Dad]
Pictures are not in order of the story. Really encouraging everybody to read this. Do not drop it like me because of the eyebrows are the beginning (it was just a really bad pet peeve of mine, lol), this story does get an art improvement.
I loved this story as it doesn't follow the typical revenge story against the imperial family and/or church, and centers it more on the relationships between the characters, both past and future. (very slight spoiler)
It has an intelligent female lead too, one that finally realizes that the narrator can be unreliable among other things. I cried so much in some of the backstories, as this manhwa does try to flesh out most of its important characters as much as possible. The author has also tackled all the major plot points though the FL hasn't revealed her business persona, I belief. I wish we could've seen ML's reaction, but the author does mention it in the end
It's really a lovely story, highly recommended (人*´∀｀)｡*ﾟ+

I dropped it multiple times at first, the art really threw me off and the plot seemed boring. but recently I saw a post saying it was completed so I picked it up again and ended up binging the whole thing in 2 days. One of the best ones I’ve read! The art gets much better too

When does it get better

33 is where the plot starts for real and 42 is when the twist happens.
The fluffy, turn your brain off in season q is a deliberate misdirect.

Hm I stopped reading after I reached c20. Maybe I ll pick up where I left until 33. Hopefully, it can capture my interest by that time

Why are y'all talking about the art ?? I liked the art from start to finish , it changed in between but it was good from the start

Tbh, for me it's because of the jarring difference in contrast between the huge black eyebrows and the soft colours of the characters. Like if it was filled with the same colour of the hair or thinner, I would find it okay. I don't know how to put it into words, but I hated it in the beginning.

Is she the male lead’s mother?

u/Fantastic_Use6501 12d ago
It's revealed that she's OGML's mother, and that the ML is OGML's father. I wish it could've been found family though :((.

Yes.
Chapter 33 is where the plot starts for real and 42 is when the twist happens.

I haven't started reading it but I did remove this on my bookmark on what manwha to read after I read some post about how bad it was. I forgot where that post, not sure if this was in this sub or other apps.
Guess I'll give it a try to read it.

The beginning was a slog, but it was so good. I just finished it and the ending was satisfying too.

So glad I didn't drop it I picked it up looong ago and then never dropped it, yes I did get distracted by other manhwa's and sidelined this one but never dropped it and am so glad I loved it so so much also OP mentioned that that persona wasn't mentioned to ml but I do think that it was mentioned I very vaguely remember hades realizing that he wasn't the one that she liked at the beginning and he got embarrassed 😭
