I Became a Childhood Friend With the Villainous Saintess

Chapter 0 - Prologue

These days, readers have no interest in the backstories of villains.

They’ve already committed their misdeeds, and only after tasting failure do they start laying out their excuses like a defense.

Claims like ’villain was actually a good guy’ or ’it was the world that was evil’ are met with nothing but disdain.

Not even the finest performance by an A-list actor can save a lousy script or melodrama.

Attempts to sell sentiment through clumsy writing find no empathy from the audience.

Especially in an era like today’s.

If you can’t win the hearts of readers, even the fate of the heroine could twist and turn, leading to her demise.

It was a time when even prettiest of the girls had to struggle to survive in the world of fiction.
