Description
I was a fan of the original female protagonist. Frustrated with the unsatisfying ending, I got hit by the reincarnation truck and ended up in the body of the fleeting ex-wife of the regretful male lead, ‘Ian Cloud.’ But this guy is even more stubborn and cold-hearted than I imagined. “Is that okay?” “I don’t need it.” “Mind your own business.” Is this going to be another frustrating and terrible ending like the original? So I decided. Before the female protagonist returns, I’m going to reform this hopeless regretful man! “Duke, even if it’s not like that, try speaking more kindly.” “Women like men who are gentle and considerate.” “The trend now is for men to be thoughtful, remember that.” I turned the robot-like male lead into a perfect keychain for the female lead. And finally, on the day they reunited, I handed him the divorce papers. “Right, before I go, please stamp here.” “What is this?” “What do you think? It’s the divorce papers.” “Divorce… papers?” Rip. The divorce papers were cruelly torn apart in his hands. Wait, why did you rip them…? “Don’t tell me you’ve been planning to leave me all this time?” “…Pardon?” “Didn’t you teach me that true love means becoming the only one for each other?” But that’s supposed to be about you and the female lead… “Eloise.” He pressed a lingering kiss into my palm. His languid, azure eyes fixed on me. “I belong solely to you.” “….” “So, you must also become mine.” As I looked into his obsessive gaze, I thought, Something feels very wrong. No, more importantly, I never taught him about obsession!

My Thoughts on I Taught You Carefully, So Why Are You Obsessed?
"I Taught You Carefully, So Why Are You Obsessed?" promised a fun twist on the transmigration trope, and while it had glimmers of potential, I ultimately found myself struggling to connect with the story. The premise, involving a protagonist who enters a novel she read and tries to "fix" the male lead for the original female lead, is certainly intriguing. However, the execution left me with mixed feelings.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the European ambience and the promise of a comedic romance with a strong female lead. The idea of a character actively trying to shape the male lead's personality held a certain appeal, offering the potential for witty banter and unexpected developments.
What Works Well
The novel appears to excel in its portrayal of the supporting female characters. I found the positive depiction of these women refreshing, and it added a layer of depth to the world-building. The initial translation quality also seemed to be a strong point, allowing for a smoother reading experience in the earlier chapters.
Areas of Concern
My biggest issue lies with the female lead's characterization. Her thought process often felt toxic and immature. Her pre-conceived hatred for the male lead, based solely on the original novel's plot, seemed excessive and lacked nuance. I struggled to understand her motivations and found her actions to be condescending and arrogant. Her plan to essentially "train" the male lead before handing him off to the original female lead struck me as particularly problematic and showed a lack of respect for the characters' autonomy and feelings. This made it difficult for me to empathize with her or root for her success.

Final Verdict
While "I Taught You Carefully, So Why Are You Obsessed?" has a unique premise and some positive elements, the problematic characterization of the female lead and the questionable plot choices ultimately hindered my enjoyment. The novel's focus on comedy and romance is overshadowed by the FL's toxic thought process, which is why I can only give this novel a 2.5/5 rating.
