Maybe it's because I felt sorry for her. The author is a genius in that she made the readers feel exactly the way the lower class people felt about her: dislike initially but she becomes known as a kind, gentle and generous woman by the town, first as a rumor then confirmed by her son's father-in-law

As for her marriage, she is but another victim of her father's thinkings and of feudalism, where children (especially girls) had to obey their parents. Embon's husband resented Lady Sougyon because of that arranged marriage, yet it's him who didn't have the guts to elope with the one he loved. What's more, he is shameless enough to leech off of his wife. Due to this, I believe she is allowed to look down on him.

I agree with you! I think it is really interesting how society and class can impact on someone's upbringing and how that can change their behaviour towards others!lavkathleen wrote: ↑12 Jan 2021, 00:48 Maybe in the beginning, yes. I expected the attitude from the start as she's a daughter of a prince. Also having watched a lot of shows with this theme, I don't even get turned off anymore. I already know there are something else under that surface. However, it does tell people a lesson about the kind of personality a person develops in that kind of society and class.
