Why do korean artists/writers always do this with their romance. No, you can't survive off scraps of affection until the other person (always the man!) decides he wants to settle down and care about you. This ain't beauty and the beast, bitch. The only thing it does is make the female characters look depressingly desperate and deficient as human beings, like they're empty glasses waiting to be filled up with "love" instead of doing their own thing.
