   ① At the beginning of the book, the female lead seems to control the pace of the relationship, but as you read on, it becomes clear that the male lead is the mastermind behind everything. The interactions between the male and female leads are truly fascinating and offer a unique perspective, as seen in chapters 89-100, which are absolutely brilliant. ② In the romantic storyline, the male lead is in complete control; no matter how much the female lead tries to cause trouble, she can't escape his grasp. The female lead is a bit demanding in the early stages, which is understandable: after all, she's a time traveler, so she's a bit arrogant, and as a university student, she lacks a real understanding of society and the 1970s. Later, she realizes her limitations, and the relationship between the male and female leads becomes very sweet.
