    ⚠️The first time the male and female leads met, the male lead held a gun to the female lead's head. If he hadn't run out of bullets, she would have died at his hands. This is a heart-wrenching novel that made me cry so much! I really, really want to recommend this angst-filled book!! I love it so much, it's just a bit niche. The male lead is a crazy, possessive, and sadistic man!! He's a crazy, powerful guy who falls in love with the gentle female lead at first sight and wants her to redeem him. To teach him to love. To love him! (Because no one loves him, he has a very pitiful background [crying][crying]). Before marriage, the male lead is a master of the art of force and control, first scheming to get the female lead pregnant and then methodically forcing her into marriage because of the pregnancy. After marriage, his possessiveness is really strong. He's usually quite calm, but he easily becomes irritable and violent towards the man who almost became the female lead's fiancé. After marriage, the male lead is even more like a mad dog. His methods are incredibly crazy. The later parts of the story involve imprisoning the female lead, shooting her, sending her to prison, and forcing her to remarry after the divorce—all incredibly abusive and emotionally draining. Thankfully, the female lead is incredibly gentle and resolute, otherwise she would have gone mad long ago. But she's clearly the male lead's only salvation and his ideal woman. He loves her so much, so much that he wouldn't waver in anything, not even his own life. It's truly heartbreaking. I cried several times; I think it's an incredibly beautiful and tragic novel.

    I recommend this book to everyone. The author handles the romance between the male and female leads very delicately. The female lead is an optimistic and somewhat abstract character, like a little sunshine. Although the male lead is a bit unkind to her at the beginning, he becomes very doting on her later. Their relationship develops gradually. However, the female lead is a bit oblivious to her own feelings, always thinking that the male lead likes her older sister, and her thought process is rather quirky, but she's very cute [shy]. The male lead can't help but praise her cuteness.
