Here's how I picture the male lead: Usually rather soft, he only cares about people he acknowledges and is indifferent toward everyone else. He is also extremely possessive.
To clarify the possessiveness: it doesn't mean the male lead gets upset when other pretty girls are pursued by other men. He's not that much of a womanizer. Although everyone appreciates beauty, at most he'd admire them.
This novel and its characters are entirely fictional. Any resemblance to actual people or events is purely coincidental. Do not imitate.
