But I watched like 15min of my gf is a gumiho and the guy didnt seem so bad. Maybe I watched a rare scene. Just as long as he doesnt force himself on her or emotionally/physically/sexually assault her in any way shape or form lol.
My Girlfriend is a Gumiho is very sweet in the later episodes, but he's incredibly bad to her during the first half. It's definitely worth watching, but it deserves a disclaimer. I don't mean bad like forcing himself on her, just treating her poorly.
I haven't read the MARS manga, but I hear the adaptation keeps very true to it. It's a really, really good romance - easily the best TWdrama I have seen.
I also can't stand forceful male leads - maybe it's a big cultural difference between America and Asia, but it makes my spine crawl when I see some guy force a kiss on the girl or something like that. Not a fan of female leads that do the same thing, but it's far less common. Luckily, the "surprise kiss" thing is more commonly found in romantic comedies, because I guess forcing yourself on someone is funny.. ha ha ha.. ha..
