This has certainly been the lowest point of this creative endeavor. ― I knew it was only a matter of time before the series reached this point. Given the unorthodox nature of these episodic releases and the impressive awkwardness of the original Black Organization episodes, I had a feeling TMS would run into this particular problem.

Betrayal of Dignity Volume 1 Novel Review

May 22, 12:00 korean novels

If you aren’t a fan of jerk romantic interests, I’d recommend looking for a different book. ― This is a beautifully written and well-translated book about an absolute horror show of a man. Betrayal of Dignity, whose webtoon adaptation is also available to read on Manta's site and app, is an impressive combination of light novel and old school romance novel, which makes it almost aggressively readable...
