## My Thoughts on Just Blame Me For Being Blind in the Beginning "Just Blame Me For Being Blind in the Beginning" promised a fluffy romance, and for the most part, it delivered. I went in expecting a lighthearted read, and I wasn't entirely disappointed, though some elements definitely left me with mixed feelings. It's a story about an actress, Pei Ying, and her whirlwind romance with CEO Song Nachaun. ### First Impressions Initially, I was drawn in by the premise of a seemingly naive female lead and a charming CEO. I quickly found that the main character has her head on straight. She has upright morals and a sense of self that doesn’t seem to be easily swayed. That is something I like in a light novel. ### What Works Well The story is cute, charming, and funny. Pei Ying's shyness and unintentional humor are definitely adorable. I found myself chuckling at her inner monologues and her attempts to navigate the world of celebrities. The translation is also smooth and easy to read, which is always a plus. Many will enjoy the comedic scenes. ### Areas of Concern However, the male lead, Song Nachaun, is where things get a little murky for me. Some found his immediate obsession with Pei Ying a bit unsettling, feeling it lacked a solid foundation. It's like the story just jumped into the deep end of "insta-love" without building enough of a connection first. Furthermore, his behavior sometimes veered into controlling territory, making decisions for Pei Ying without truly respecting her career aspirations. I can see how that could be a major turn-off for some readers. I do think the ML learned from his mistakes and exerted a good amount of effort before the FL forgave him. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Some found the ML to be overly sexually orientated in the relationship, which wasn't endearing at all. He comes off as a gentleman, of course once he gets into the MC's pants, his personality takes a shift where he becomes shameless. He pulls strings to remove her from the movie she busted her ass off to get because he didn’t approve of intimate scenes. ### Final Verdict Overall, "Just Blame Me For Being Blind in the Beginning" is a decent read if you're looking for a light, fluffy, and relatively drama-free romance. However, be prepared for a male lead who might rub you the wrong way with his overbearing tendencies and a plot that doesn't delve too deep beneath the surface. If you can look past those flaws, you might just find yourself charmed by this cute and comedic story.
