i hope kangmin subscribes to the 'talk shit, get hit' school of thought

I'm so glad there are others besides the guys and Jia defending Bitna. But ugh there's always those people that just wanna stir up drama

 

[Julni]

I hope Bitna heard her friends defending her
Thanks for the translation!

uwu i hope this is not going to be one of those stories where the 2nd ML practically resolves a lot of the problem/help the mc behind the scene a lot while 1st ML did not really do anything.

Helping doesn't equal plus points for romance but i'm going to start having 2nd ml syndrome real bad if it happens :')

 

[Areux]

i hope he isn’t the second male lead and I HOPE bitna falls for him

Blondie all the waaaaaay. Btw I don't think who is first male lead or 2nd ML been cleared up by the author yet. Its all too confusing but really enjoyable at the same time. This is just a stab in the dark from my part but I think Kangmin sunbae will be end game but after Bitna dates other people first. Anyways Thanks translator him for this wonderful chapter.

Some of the people here haven't heard of the "first guy wins" rule. 95% of the time in manga, webtoons and such, the first guy the female lead sees and gets a bit wobbly over is the end game. Blondie does not have a realistic chance here. He's being built up partly because his position gives him a more active role and partly because you have to give the secondary a big build up to create any suspense at all.

@Purplelibraryguy you're totally right about the first guy wins rule and i'!m already aware of it (cuz I read a shitton of Shojo manga and chick lit novels too) but I don't think that is the case here. I don't think the author will take the easy way out as you can see with the fact that who the hell ML hasn't been cleared up yet. This here is a true love triangle Wich is gonna have an unpredictable ending because the author is working on developing both guys and who knows what the future will bring. A prime example of where first guy wins rule was totally destroyed was Daytime Shooting star. The Chick in that manga fell fast and hard for her sensei with no hint of romantic affection for her childhood initially but look at how that turned out.
I don't think the author of Timid Palette is gonna make the romance easy and ya'll should prepare your hearts for a roller coaster.

Probably Gayoung has a serious inferiority complex towards Bitna that's why she spreads bad rumours about her and makes everyone to ignore her and keeps away from her ;-;

oh god i'm so glad the 2 girls didn't buy that bullshit. i hope they become Bitna's girl friends. seriously we need more kind girls like Jia sunbae 😭

and what's that Kangmin? your crush is showing.
i don't know about you guys but my feelings that Kangmin is the main lead are pretty strong.
this reminds me of some kdramas, like Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bokjoo for example, the female lead has a huuuuge crush on second lead, the main lead helps her a lot, they get comfortable with each other. Bam! love blooms!

seeing as how early Kangmin's character is being developed and how often he appears in scenes, i'm pretty sure it's him. The author is also making it easy for us to gradually and slowly like Kangmin while making us think that maybe it is Sihyeong by the way it is going.

but i bet it's Kangmin. watching how Bitna come to realize the one she truly likes will be more intriguing. and Bitna slowly falling far Kangmin will also move the plot forward

 

[andromede]

kangmin is being conscious abt his feeling now aaaa


@jaellasster omg your mind! also i love your wkbj comparison i loveeee that drama so fricking much
