Yeah...I'm not sure what you're seeking to gain by complaining Nya-chan.
FF is real slow. We’re at half of the story and neither of the characters have confessed. Hell, we’re not even sure what kind of relationship they want. I can’t even picture them having sex!
I don't see the problem with this. At all. At least 75% of the other stories on dynasty have a first kiss within the first chapter. The problem is that there are almost -no- legitimate slow-burn manga/manhwa like this. Why are you complaining like everything's slow-burn?
Except Seol-a and No-rae, none of the characters have any depth or presence.
You say this like we've been reading a 300 page novel. We've read about 50 "pages" if we can even count them as such. Furthermore, the way FF is written, it's seen as snapshots of Seol-a/No-rae's lives. Why the heck would side characters then have their own sort of tangent?
The various oppas or guys in the story are all forgettable and don’t have any meaningful interactions with the two main.
The female friends are even worse. They are used just as a way to get a glimpse of the two MCs past, they have no real personality whatsoever. They pop up randomly in order to make some exposition.
I don't know what kind of real-life experience you have, but it's obviously vastly different from mine. I have gone 3+ weeks without seeing people I have the same classes (offset times obviously) with. But when I [do] get to interact with some of these people, sometimes the memories they leave stay on for months [I should know...a few memories ruined my sleep for months orz]. My point is: just because people are only occasionally showing up and making a lasting impression on either the character or the story -- it sure as heck doesn't mean it's not realistic. And if realism isn't the reason you're bashing it, I honestly don't understand what your problem was to begin with.
Drama for the sake of drama
Dude. Seriously. That's the whole point of reading any story. Who wants to read a story about some sheltered kid who nothing ever happens to? Sometimes people have awesome stories that people do want to read. This is like an extension of that. There's drama. Drama can happen. It's not overdone, hell. I know way more people that had far more traumatizing backstories than the stuff either/or (especially since No-rae's seems quite "basic", not to belittle her trauma) experienced.
So here I am, because I feel it needs to be said instead of bathing in universal praise.
I feel like you just unnecessarily put yourself up on a pedestal as being the champion of those that can't/won't speak...
Argue if you'd like. Heck, I know you've had issues with FF for a while. But don't put words in other peoples mouths, that's my biggest pet peeve. So far, you've been one of the only people I've seen -- on any medium, but I don't frequent /u/ (/u/ people aren't afraid to say crap tho) -- who have issue with FF.
