Forever Mine

I generally do not read stories with master/servant relationships, nor with supernatural or fantasy elements, and I am even less likely to rate a series a perfect 10. However, despite including a couple of my personal pet peeves, I cannot help but give this series top honors. From the point of view of the romance enthusiast, it is just that good. The author has done an extraordinary job of infusing the characters with emotions: joy, sadness, pain, suffering, jealousy, heartache and, of course, love are all vividly portrayed. The chemistry between the two very likeable leads is what drives the story to its immensely satisfying conclusion. It was certainly worth every penny I spent to read it on lezhin, and I would gladly buy a hardcopy if it was ever printed in English.

I see the other 2 reviewers gave this title a 10 and I can't help but do the same.

The story isn't overly complicated and the premise gives a natural and believable reason for why characters would have trouble acting according to their feelings. If we look at similar situations in other series, it usually boils down to me reacting with: "holy hell if you like her/him so much or are jealous of her/him, then say it". In the case of this toon, there is a completely acceptable reason for why the characters act the way they do.

To put it simply, the story of this series plays out like most other titles focusing on romance, but by introducing the "curse", instead of "what the heck why are you so stupid" reactions, it becomes "[i]i guess it's warranted[i]".

Along with that, the art is great and the pacing feels okay. In the epilogue, the author touched upon not expanding on the curse because he wanted to keep it a romance instead of mystery, and not expanding on the story of the side characters because it went on for longer than planned anyways. I think it was a great decision because the story holds well on its own even without the extra details about the mystery aspect, and if there was more chapters focusing on other characters (and we assume that MC FMC situation will be resolved at the end) it'd just feel drawn out.

As for the bad sides, nothing really comes to mind. I'm sure if I focused hard enough I could pick up a couple of faults, but that only means that the series is well done.

I didnt want to read this at first because of the title but i saw an Instagram post saying not to judge just because of the title.

I like how there is character development and how it portrays human emotions. It's not too cheesy and it's not too dramatic, just the way I like my webtoons. The author also ensured that the focus would be on the romance and immediately put an end to the mystery. The transition towards the ending is good, doesnt feel rushed nor too slow.

but this wasn't what I would call good. First of all it took too long and ended to suddenly. You think I wanna read about love polygons and people struggling to find themselves and to connect with each other for 72 chapters only for it to end in the next ? there were still so many unanswered questions, like I don't know maybe about the curse that was present throughout ? what happened to it ? this just left a bitter taste in my mouth.

The concept was good, but the cliche love polygon bored me to death, and the male lead who ended up together with her was too bland for my tastes. To each their own I guess.

People might think this is just a typical master-servant type manhwa but really it isn’t. This story is so wholesome and adorable I just love it. Honestly one of my favorite manhwas of all time.
