i like how this gives manga vibes more than being a manhwa just cuz of how it's paced

Because it is a manga?

it is? thought it was a manhwa since it's in webtoon form

Yeah. A lot manga are in webtoon format and I find nowadays the publisher (?) Publishes both manga format (panels, b/w) and webtoon format for the same title ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
