#nowadays more of the fandom seems to appreciate i love yoo for its complexities

[charcoalowl]

I Love Yoo is such a story. It's a complex and nuanced look at human relationships. It's a treatise on abuse and power dynamics. It's a discussion about how we hurt the people we love, intentionally and unintentionally. It is chock full of metaphors and symbolism. It never fully condemns or absolves any of its characters. It has a friends-to-lovers ship that is more high stakes, intense, and emotionally charged than so many enemies-to-loves pairings out there. It is 100% a respectable narrative belonging in genre of 'drama'. One of these I'm going to find the person at webtoon whose idea it was to market it as a cute love triangle romance and I am going to kill them.

#*gasp* THE OWL CAN TALK??! #i love yoo #i love yoo webtoon #the mismarketing is at least half the reason why the fandom was so annoying in the beginning #and still is to some extent #the years seemed to have whittled down that part of the fandom though #nowadays more of the fandom seems to appreciate i love yoo for its complexities
