악녀가 사랑할 때 [Agnyeoga Saranghal Ddae]

by Seo Gwijo, 서귀조

I got to possess the body of a villainess, whose life was limited to end soon.

That’s okay, because I can cure the disease!

The goal is a life, where I can do whatever I want to!

First, I decided to educate the characters of my favorite novel. However, the reaction of the people around me, who called me a villainess, were strange.

“How can you laugh like that even though you’re dying soon?”

I struggle to understand why this manhwa has such a well-executed adaptation when there’s barely a story to hold it together. Given how many excellent Korean novels have suffered from terrible adaptations, I can’t help but feel a sense of indignation with this one. I wouldn’t call the story outright terrible, but it’s undeniably mediocre and hard to take seriously.

The biggest issue starts with the heroine herself—she's a one-dimensional character with even weaker development than the supposed villain whose body she takes over. Ironically, the very premise of the transmigrated universe she enters seems to have more complexity and depth than the novel itself.

As for the romance, it’s frustrating if that’s your main reason for reading. The story follows a structure similar to a reverse harem but does no real work in developing its relationships.

Note for those considering reading it:
I haven’t finished the story, but from what I’ve read—and based on feedback from other readers—the main love interest takes a long time to appear, and the romance itself is slow to develop. So, unless you’re here for the stunning art or enjoy watching a protagonist being endlessly pampered by gorgeous men willing to die for her after just one meeting, there may not be much to keep you invested. ╰(▔∀▔)╯

3.5
Every dress the FL wore was so heinous. It literally ruined my enjoyment of this manhwa. They were so ugly 😭. Also, I don't like the ML. It felt like he came out of nowhere.

Another villainess story eh? When the Villainess is in love is actually a pretty good read. I actually tried this one before but I’m not exactly sure why I wasn’t able to finish it. Considering that this time, I finished this in just one sitting! That’s why I keep on asking why, lol.

As of lately, I am pretty interested in isekai and/or regression stories so it was no wonder this manhwa was able to catch my attention just by reading its first chapter. Being a fellow fangirl myself, I can’t help but focus my attention on the MC and imagine myself as her. My! Imagine not just meeting your favorite fiction character, but also living as them!

Looking at the title, I really thought this manhwa is going to be heavy on romance. But nope! It still has romance in it, but I feel that it was more about MC’s love for her favorite character. I love my romance, but I surprisingly enjoyed this one. MC can be pretty intense on making her favorite character live happily and that she’s willing to return her life and body to her and just vanish. Sometimes, romantic love isn’t just what makes a good story, but also this kind of selfless love too!

As for the characters, I don’t think there was even a short time that I hated the MC. She’s very likable and I love how positive she is. She also loves her favorite character so immensely that sometimes you think she is more important than her own life. Well, you could say that her favorite character’s happiness is also her happiness. The revelation halfway through the end really surprised me. Now that it was revealed, I appreciate her love for her favorite character even more. Uwaaaahhhh!

As for the ML, yep, there’s an ML, wahahaha. I mentioned that this manhwa isn’t more on the romantic love between the leads, but that doesn’t mean that the romance is not there. As a matter of fact, this manhwa is a harem. Thankfully, it wasn’t annoying. The ML and the guys are a riot! They’re so funny especially when they are all in the same frame, lol. Plus, they are all hot, weew. As for the ML, yep, there’s only one ML and I actually love their chemistry.

And speaking of chemistry, I love the transition of romance. This manhwa feels more heavy on the circumstances of the MC and on how she battles the real bad guy rather than the romance. So I really appreciate how the author slowly transitioned the romance between the leads. It didn’t feel forced, rather it felt natural. I love it!

Aside from the relationships between the characters, I love the action. I never thought this ones going to be a ropan (romance fantasy) plus twins! Sorry for that spoiler hahaha. I just can’t proceed with this review without mentioning that one because I just love reading their sibling love <3

The action and suspense at the end wasn’t as intense as I thought it would be considering the final boss looks very OP. But I think it was still ok since I’ve got to see how badass the MC was fighting the enemy, *wink.

After all the suspense and action, it’s finally the exchange of “I love you”… Uwaaah! It wasn’t as grand as most romance manhwa out there, but it was very moving. Uwaaah, I just love this pair <3

As for the art, it was pretty good! Everything just looks so pretty and I think the character design suits all its characters. Another thing, it was also good seeing a brown-haired ML, since most ML has either a blonde, black or white hair.

Highly recommended!

whew, finally done! i really enjoyed the first half of the story, and i was actually quite disappointed with the ending (and the side-stories). the last 30-ish chapters were a complete MESS, gosh. i’m glad she ended up with daniel at least (unlike a lot of the readers), but i do wish we’d gotten more scenes between the two of them. i don’t know, i have mixed feelings… mostly, it just felt anticlimactic. the execution could’ve been a lot better, in all honesty. i get what the artist (or author) was trying to do, but it sort of just fell flat. oh, well! i’m proud if of myself for completing it nonetheless, lol. seriously doubted i would at times!!!

Me está gustando mucho, aun no lo termino pero se podría decir que me ha encantado. La FL realmente es linda y graciosa (al igual que en el manhwa). Disfruto mucho los momentos cuando interpretan mal las palabras de lea por los demás personajes. También es super lindo la forma en que la protegen y quieren. Al principio de verdad quería que eugene se el ML pero después de seguir leyendo, me enamore de la relación de Daniel y Lea.

I hate the writer for making all the minor characters heartbreaking😭💔

I can recommend only for people who enjoy fanservice made for fangirls. Hot guys harem, self-insert of a manhwa reader.

[Umi Ayu Fitriani · Rating 3 out of 5]

Another pretty art but the story is not my type. But the FL is really pretty tho. So I stop reading it at chapter 23.
