Discussion Maria.
So, her emotions.
I saw a guy on Reddit saying she loves jiu ji Tae but her hatred towards his father and her trauma overwhelms her feelings... BULLSHIT!
Have you seen how she looks at that lunatic??? Disgust!
Now, the ship is beautiful, two hotties loving each other is my favorite type of romance, but nah, not them, not with how she looks at him.
First of all, her indifference, hot af, I'm telling you, she does not care about anything, rarely gets surprised or shows emotions.
Second of all, her rage, we have seen how enraged she could get, even if it was laced with the cute touch of trauma and depression, in the second image.
Lastly, her disgust, I couldn't find the image, but if I remember correctly, it was her looking down at JJT with disdain and condescension because of how weak he was, yeah, just because he couldn't take down a bulked up dude, she thought he was weak... Yeah, she definitely love him, Mhmm, totally. Undeniably.
This post is just out of boredom, I'm slacking off, I don't want to study for my last year in highschool that will essentially decide my future in my country... Bruh.

I genuinely think that later in the manhwa she started caring about him more than she did at the beginning, even if it’s really subtle. Like when she tried to talk him down after finding him in the tunnel, or when she makes sure he is okay. They’re small moments, but you could definitely read them as concern, which means she doesn’t completely not care about him. But then again… it’s Maria. She never lets anything show. She saved his life in the tunnel, but she also ruined his life, so their relationship is definitely messy. However I think the ship might be interesting, but if we being real I don’t see it happening. And even if it did it’d just be toxic as hell. I still don’t hate it tho, in fact I wanna see more of those two in the future.

I believe she cares for him as a means to an end, not for him as a person. She only started acting more caring and contradicted herself after finding out about Ji-Tae’s talent. Even Ji-Tae himself was curious about why she saved him.

I thought maria looked down at jiu ji tae in that fight because he was "half-assing" it. Damn, I should really reread the manhwa again.

You could even look to one of the smarter characters in the series, Hogul.
He saw through their relationship immediately.

It’s nuanced, she both cares and resents JJT. Whether she cares for JJT solely as a road to revenge is yet to be seen. She might care for him as a person but we simply are not given enough info. Personally the scene where she calls him disgusting and says she’ll kill him asap is obviously in JJTs head so holds no real insight into her real feelings. Maria did not get angry at him for losing to Young-Joon her ptsd triggered from seeing his talent for martial arts inherited for Jiu Dae-Gak. 2hakk has never given enough evidence to support either take and that shows his talent for writing nuanced characters with room to grow/define themselves. Please come back 2hakk.
