TvT Oh my, they are going growing too fast. My babies, Mitsumi-san! But has anyone else noticed, that overtime, the artstyle feels more and more... like, how real humams look like of that makes sense?
What's happening? I thought this manhwa ended long ago? There are side stories!?!? I am... *loading* I gotta make time to re-read this...
AH! I ACCIDENTALLY CLICKED THE SPOILER BUTTON THINGY!
Okay, oh my gosh, oh my gosh, my stomach is falling from high earth to the 9th circle of hell. I know everyone did something wrong, yes, but I wish no one got hurt, I really did wish for it. I was expecting Nanjo to simply run off while bearing teeth at Mokyeon for what he did. But Nanjo didn't need to beat-up Mokyeon like that, throw a punch, or two, or three, but that's it. And Sunhwa, that's your long-time friend, why is the only thing you can say is that "you look shit," seriously?
Though, I also get why Nanjo-ssi got really pissed off. I get why Mokyeon liked him. I get why Sunhwa just wants to get out of the drama quickly. I get it, really. I unfortunately really do so... all I can really think of it right now is: FUCK! (Not the sex way, but in the "everything got screwed by everyone" way.)
This is not meant to offend but to compliment the original author; the art did not do justice to how beautifully short yet sweet this story was written as, but it did show how much of a child we all can be in no matter age or place we are in the face of happiness.
Honestly that's sadly true... Like no shade to the manhwa artist and I am truly grateful that they picked this novel but if another artist with greater art had picked it up I am sure this would be way more appropriated and popular...
It's just sad to see toxic and sloppy written manhwa get lots of attention sometimes because the art is nice and doing half the carrying... While works like this remain hidden...
This is not okay, that's obvious. But what the heck happened? I knew Nanjo was going to get mad, but... Or that could still be assumption, did Mok-yeon run? Oh god... What's gonna happen...
I don't think so. Considering how clingy mokyeon is he's not the type to run away. Nanjo definitely got mad and maybe said something harsh and avoiding him.
Did the last three(?) panels actually happen? Girl? Seriously? Isn't that the point where you realize "ah- I should learn how to ask for consent" and not bring a stranger into his home!?!? Tell me she didn't actually say that and its just her imagining how upset Dohyun would be.
I told myself that I wouldn't touch this manhwa in order to fprget the plot and read the novel. I TOLD MYSELF I WOULD BE RESOLVED TOO AAAHHHH!
This is the type of manga that I need to read again. Not in an exagerrated way, but simply because... I READ THIS IN A HURRY! I need to buy a copy too honestly. I want to read it again and again, because I have a feeling there is an answer here that I've been looking for.
I have read up until chapter 43 of this manga, and this is my take on what the story potrays.
I know this isn't the best, but for me, though I do not know how to explain it, this story has been quite a fresh read.
Every action has consequences; every word plays a part. Eremia understands both tradition and the need for modernity to come about. Tradition and culture are part of the people's identity. But the ideals, like misogyny and racism—these are part of what should be changed, erased even. And Eremia understands this. Lord Ostanea is a victim of such traditions; years upon year of hiding because of them do not disappear just because he became high-standing. It is the very reason why he chose to do it. And Freya understands this well, not because she loves him, but because it is human to feel anger, sadness, and love. But again, all of it comes with a price that must never be overlooked.
Sure, the author could have done better in portraying such deep and fragile messages, but it is there. The need for tradition and modernity to co-exist. The need for religion and science to become whole yet still separate concepts.
From how I understand it, no single gender nor race was blamed, and we can see that through Eremia, the main character. It is their circumstances, the society and toxic idealisms built that should be blamed. But that does not mean they are blameless. Individual people acted, and individual egos willed it; that is not blame but fault, a sin that can be redeemed—may it be in life, death, and after.
Like the author, I could have explained my point better, but for now, this is generally my take. I haven't read the novel, so that might give me more insight on their character.
I mean artist, sorry. Or... author too? Basically, whoever drew the flow of the manga.
Why does it feel like that as the story progress, what made this manhwa stand out is slowly... degrading? I don't know. It feels like the author is burning out or something.
I'm going to have to agree with this. The story was at its strongest at the beginning - especially the dynamic between the three characters, Sami, Pyojun and Chan, along with their individual stories. Now, the story just feels stale? Idk what it is - I'm even feeling slowly disconnected with Sami now. I'm also not a fan of Tabin's character and seemingly, he's been getting to the forefront of the story as of recent. We're barely even seeing less of Chan now, he just feels like he's been thrown in the backburner.
