Sir, I Like You Chapter -- Discussion

Author has a thing for highschoolers???

I was actually looking forward to the age gap (granted I also though YZ in the summary was the MC/shou so the power imbalance would be less..) but this is just weird

MC and MCs mom talk about marriage in the same conversation as MCs mom telling MC to go back and do his homework. MC is still in his last year of highschool and gets his marriage certified with his school bag on his back.

then we're told MLs mom has been wanting ML to marry MC for years now?? that she had her eye on him?? ma'am... he just became legal this year.

I know I shouldn't look too deep into the world of this but how did a rich middle aged woman catch MC anyway? is there a child bride website MCs parents put him on when he turned 12 just incase their company went to shit? like what is the connection here?

I can already see that MC and ML are actually quite lovey dovey but its just so creepy when you realize ML is calling a highschooler his wife, and not, like, a uni student.

I cant fathom how the author chose these ages. 32 possibly because they wanted him old and experienced but not too old that he was closer to his 40s than 30s. but 18????? why not 20? thats still over a whole decade of difference, and MC would still be in school??? why must you make it someone who turned 18 that year - who got his marriage certified with his still-in-use school bag.

man idk, I thought itd be cute but a highschooler getting married to the most eligible rich bachelor because his parent's company is failing is so not healthy. Atleast switch the 'roles' so the one who doesnt hold all financial power is bigger / stronger / actually feels like someone who could fight back if something happened.

it would be readable if author didnt put so much emphasis on both how old the ML is and that MC is a f*cking highschooler. is this a fetish? do we need to be reminded that MC has only been legal for a few months at every. goddamn. interaction!?

just make it a normal f*cking character trait and not something to bring up in every 3rd sentence so we're reminded that a highschooler was literally sold to an almost 40 year old man.

read only if ur favourite thing about characters is their age because there's literally no other characterization lmao
