If this manhwa had kept its original storyline (where nothing makes sense - nothing!! Why did the saint buy a child as a taste taster?) our female protagonist Nina read and keeps talking about, would that have been one shitty telenovela from my childhood or a PTSD victim turned Stockholm syndrome romance. Yes, that is how I see telenovelas and soap operas - Stockholm syndrome romance and abuse turns to love.
Thanks to Nina changing the story, this no longer feels that way. I do believe there is only one male lead and the rest are just red herrings in the first season. It has a comical side to the intense survival mode the maid has to go through. It was a bit different to the others I have read but to an extent only. Hopefully is season two, some time as in years have passed but we also get to explore Nina's background, as well as that of others (the king we know, he explained and there is no further use for him to explain more...). I also wish for a more detailed and interesting plot as this right now feels a bit simplistic.
