This is concerning that AI is making people less well-rounded.

SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

Hell, for all we know, Samyeong's wife might have been having an affair with a woman 👀

SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

People also keep speculating that Juhye might not be Samyeong's bio daughter. I don't think so, when you see her, she looks similar to Samyeong when he was young. Eh idk, but I think she's his bio daughter.

SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

I mean, would I be surprised if she was having an affair? No, but how could she be able to? Samyeong was really controlling of her. He made her report her daily activities to him. He was questioning her move whenever she went out.

Ikr? I don't think Changgeon & Samyeong should have a happy ending either. Changgeon has absolutely NO redeeming qualities. The pair doesn't make any sense now. I'm just wondering if the author is intending to be a romance or a thriller like Killing Stalking.

SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

I should also add that his wife looked nervous while talking to Samyeong. It did seem like she was hiding something. People could interpret this as her having an affair. I interpreted it as her being nervous about not meeting up with Samyeong's high expectations.

Ugh, I hate Confucianism....Yeah I know how much of an influence they have on Asian culture, especially Korea. But...........At least try to treat your wife like a human?????? Eh I guess that's too much to ask from Confucianism 😭

Yeah, the concept of love in a marriage is a western concept but........Did people at least try to like their spouses??? Like at least try to connect with your spouse 😭

I'll obviously keep reading it because it's like witnessing a car crash, but idk what the author is trying to do. Idk if Samyeong is legit straight & he's gonna try to escape the palace with his daughter once & for all or if he's gonna be in a romantic relationship with Changgeon. Like, idk.

SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

Look idk what the author is trying to do here. Idk if this is a romance or if this is a thriller like Killing Stalking. King Changgeon has absolutely no redeeming qualities. I'm sorry, but I just can't see Samyeong & Changgeon actually having a loving relationship.

SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

I mean....After his wife died, Samyeong let himself go & become an alcoholic & hooked up with 47 women. Hm, so, he had the chance to completely & utterly let himself go, but...He didn't hook up with a man....Hm.

SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

It's like DAMN BRO did you even like your wife? You're more upset at the fact that you lost your family man status rather than your fucking wife is gone & you can't talk to her anymore??? Like good lord lol

SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

Even when his wife was killed, he was more upset at the fact that he failed to protect his family rather than HIS FREAKING WIFE BEING DEAD & HIS DAUGHTER IS MISSING.

SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

I also hated the fact that he was so controlling of his wife. Telling her what to wear, stay at home, etc. Did he even respect her personal style & interests? He seems to be more into the image of having a family rather than actually connecting with his wife.
January 8, 2026 at 3:21 AM
SPOILERS OF HEART OF THE LOTUS:

Like, he would describe his marriage as "another exam he had to pass". Look I know, it's Joseon Korea where everyone was expected to get married. But it's like...Did you marry also because you at least love your wife? Like, you had a connection with her???

Omg thank you so much!!! I've been trying to find ways to remove all my Twitter posts.

All I gotta say is thank god for honest warning labels. If I had read some mangas from Gengoroh Tagame, I would have been mentally damaged lol

Idk if I should say it. But his works can get really gross. Just sayin'.
