Rereading The Fantasies of a Stepmother/A Stepmother’s Marchen and Jeremy is kind of the perfect example of how to write a 2nd ML.

Most 2nd MLs in manhwa get relegated to being drama for the FL and main ML or a tool to progress the plot but Jeremy isn’t used for that. He exists to be a genuine companion to Shuri and also to contrast with his father Johannes.

Jeremy is a hot-headed man who usually acts impulsively with his emotions and Johannes is the cool as a cucumber politic who thinks 3 steps ahead but when it comes to love: Jeremy loves genuinely and whole-heartedly while Johannes obsesses.

Both of them loved a woman they couldn’t have (Ludovika chose the emperor and church law forbids Jeremy and Shuri) but while Johannes is an obsessive lunatic who married a 14 year old girl for looking like her, Jeremy makes the man who Shuri loves promise to look after her and swears to be a proper head of the family so she can relieved of her burden.

Honestly I don’t feel like Jeremy is as strong of a character if he was the main ML despite the fact I really do adore them together. His position as her stepson means he can never be the one who will give Shuri a calm and stable life. Even if they had Shuri’s marriage to Johannes annulled meaning he’s not her stepson, that relationship would forever hang over them.

Jeremy is a perfect 2nd ML because he’s agent of the plot as opposed to a tool of it. When he shows up, you know we're getting plot and not the author's toy to piss us off. He helps Shuri move past the abuse she experienced with Johannes and loves her wholeheartedly but won’t stand in the way of her happiness. Not every 2nd ML has to be written like Jeremy but Jeremy is a great example of how you can write a 2nd ML and make a fully realized character instead of someone who just irritates readers.

I like to think he was really smug that Binghe was still pissed off and that no matter how much he tore sqq apart it would never put lbh back together
