So, how do I start this?

There are some of you who probably think Lee Soohyun is weak/ a pushover when it comes to Han Minhyun. Well, I won't disagree with you all in that point. However, there is a good reason for that.

If you meet a person in reality who's able to kill you or torture you and get away with it, will you be scared and cautious of that person? 

To Soohyun, Han Minhyun is a typical cold villain, not a Male Lead, and we all know how villains are.

Soohyun has read in the novel about how frightening Han Minhyun could be, and therefore, she is extra careful about not going to his bad side.

Moreover, Soohyun grew up at an orphanage with poor conditions, and growing up, she needed to struggle very much to get food on her plate.

She was used to people showing her down or absuing their position, and if she had showed sa.s.s all those people that time, she would've been starving on the street.

Soohyun is in early thirties, not in teens or early twenties, so she has better control over her temper and manage her emotions.

Showing a smile despite of the situations and listening to others' orders despite of how unfair they might seem wasn't a new thing for her.

Soohyun is fearful of Han Minhyun, like we would normally be of some huge mafia leader, and until or unless she gets rid of that fear, she can't show her trueself to him.

Of course, she won't be like this forever. When she notices that he won't kill her or anything similar to that despite of her actions, then she'll be free with him.

To summarize this, only when Soohyun is sure that person won't be able harm her, she'll show her trueself to that person.

I wanted to write this from a realistic point of view.

And yeah, I wanted to give Han Minhyun a s.a.d.i.s.tic character because it would just go well with Lee Soohyun. 

Anyways, thanks for reading this. I am not good at writing such notes but I hope I conveyed my point
