    The male lead knows the female lead has a fiancé but still tries to force himself on her. He falls in love with her at first sight and is possessive and manipulative, even forcing himself on her while sleeping. The story begins with him getting her pregnant, using the child to force her to stay and marry him. He takes her right after she graduates. His methods are truly insane. He drugges her, gets her pregnant, pretends to be innocent, and then uses the child to force her into marriage. After she graduates, they reunite, and on the eve of her engagement, he uses a scheme to force himself on her, then uses the child to gain power and status. I watched it twice and found it quite good. It has very fresh characters and plot settings, it's just niche and doesn't have a high viewership. The male lead truly masters the art of forceful acquisition, first getting her pregnant and then methodically forcing her into marriage. He's very possessive after marriage. He's usually quite calm and collected, but he's easily irritable and angry with the man who almost became the female lead's fiancé.

    It started strong but declined in quality (the first half was very good, but it started to decline after the competition ended and she began dating the male lead; you can basically stop watching after that). The male lead misunderstands that the female lead is with the second male lead and wants to be the third party. You can stop watching after the competition ends (personal suggestion). In the first half, which started strong, I felt that the male lead was generally domineering, like a domineering CEO, maybe a bit of a scoundrel. He often didn't respect the female lead and always put her in passive situations, forcing her to make passive choices. Later on, he seemed to show some respect, but not much. Maybe he doesn't really understand respect for people. In his eyes, he already respects and loves the female lead very much (uncertain). The decline: From my perspective, the female lead lost herself because of love/a man. Since falling in love, the female lead has become insecure and constantly compares herself to many others (especially the male lead's family, trying to determine their relative importance in his heart). In the end, it seemed to me that the female lead didn't grow; she remained conflicted without finding a clear conclusion and lost her initial personality. She essentially revolved around the male lead's needs, serving to highlight his charisma. Even though the male lead didn't believe her choices, he "accused" her of not trusting him, which might have been a bit of playful banter, but I don't like this kind of accusatory flirting. The male lead's final act of revenge, choosing to side with the female lead, wasn't because of her, but because their common enemy killed his mother, her unborn sister, and his grandfather—not simply because of her. Some people see this as a sweet ending, with the male and female leads living happily ever after. Overall, I was disappointed. If you're a big fan of the female lead, you can stop reading after the first half ends. If you prefer the male lead, you'll be very satisfied with the ending.
