Synopsis

Lady Jubelian Eloy Floyen was an unloved yet lovestruck fool, clinging onto her disinterested lover Mikhail Hessen and forever yearning for affection from her indifferent father, Regis. So it came as no surprise that after she was framed for attempted murder, both of the most important men in her life turned their backs on her, leaving her to die.

That is how the story goes. When a woman from modern-day Korea finds herself in the body of the pitiable villainess Jubelian, she sets out to change her fate. First thing on the list? Break up with Mikhail and set him free. However, this leaves the spot of her prospective spouse open, so Regis begins looking for another suitor—and the first candidate on his list seems to be the notoriously bloodthirsty crown prince, Maximillian Casein Assiette. For Jubelian, anyone would be better than marrying that sadistic tyrant. Thus, she proposes a contract relationship with her father's student, Max, because no matter what, she does not want to marry that man!

You get exactly what the title delivers. "Father, I Don't Want This Marriage" may be the stupidest piece of media to ever exist, full of tripe misunderstandings and cliche tropes that may tire out the average reader, but for those of us who are regulars of this Villainess Genre, I gotta say, FIDWTM does it pretty well compared to others.

I mean, it's not a MASTERPIECE, like I don't really think ANY manga/manhwa/manhua that's come out of this genre is a "masterpiece", but damn if it's not entertaining to sit through. This is a very dumb plot, but I enjoyed the experience of reading it ...

TL;DR: When Edward Cullen told Bella Swan "You're my personal brand of heroin" in 2008, I didn't think I understood what that meant... until I read FIDWTM. This is most certainly a pure, unadulterated drug that’s injected directly into my veins every week. This is my Bella Swan.

This ridiculous, over the top, and sometimes heartbreaking manhwa gets me kicking my feet and rolling around in bed from all the emotions that it elicits. Is it, like, good? Who tf cares? I love it!

L;DR:
Does it actually deserve a 9/10? No, probably (definitely) not. Objectively, this story isn’t new or groundbreaking. But as someone experienced in this ... trashy girl-oriented isekai genre, having followed it from its beginning stages, I can quite safely say that Father, I Don’t Want this Marriage is the only series I’ve been keeping up with consistently. The characters, art, and overall fun that I get from reading this series is unparalleled in the modern apocalypse of trashy otome isekai.

It’s got a bit of a rough start—the story begins pretty bloodily, then transitions to a typical plot that we’ve all seen before. A fan dies… reincarnates… villainess… changes the story… (yawn). But after the first several chapters, the characters really begin to grow on you, even as the misunderstandings (and oh boy, are there misunderstandings) start to pile up. The setup is quite frankly silly, but somehow, it works. It made me want to watch Juvelian develop past the relationship with Mikhail, to know more about the title Father, and I quite desperately awaited each episode to see the eye-candy prince Max.

The romance seems perfectly tailored to my favorite tropes—although this bad boy burns slow, so if you’re not a fan of the long journey (and the friends we make along the way) you can look elsewhere. But there’s a reason Max is a fan favorite in the otome isekai community. Where other male leads are cold, controlling, abusive, and a whole lot of other not-fun buzzwords, Max is a wonderful breath of fresh air. Isn’t it every girl’s dream to see a guy who’s only got eyes for the girl? Tired of the overplayed Cold Duke Of The North (TM), Max is just perfect for my tastes in romance manhwa.

And behind Juvelian and Max’s cat-and-mouse antics, there’s the setup for a deeper, darker story. I don’t wish to spoil anything, but I will say this is the only otome-isekai to get the ninjas in my room to start cutting onions.

If I had to chart this series on my otome-isekai holy trinity of Romance, Drama, and Fun, Father, I Don’t Want this Marriage would be getting full marks. So while yes, it is mindless self-insert fantasy… it’s a damn good one. And I will proudly give it that 9 out of 10 for how well it does its job of servicing to the lonely teenage girl within us all.

Spoiler

I liked this series quite a bit, but epilogue ruined it for me. If you don't mind spoilers, I'll get into more details later.

Generally, if the first chapter hits you in the feels, you will most likely enjoy most of this.

It is a romance manhwa, which brings with itself certain artstyle. This series is about midway on the spectrum of "coloured manga - 20cm eyelashes" and it is a nice fit for this IP. It manages to strike right ballance between dreamy and "realistic" and fits the mood well. All of the combat scenes, besides finale (which is a bit stiff and confusing), are very ...
