i’ve been obsessed with this story from the start because of ppang’s way of writing and imagery throughout the story. SO much symbolism behind the word summer- from yeoreum meaning summer in korean, to the warm and fuzzy “summery” feelings that mr. lim develops for yeoreum, to the fact that this all takes place in the goddamn summer — and even in this latest chapter they go on to say how it’s still hot in october … that “it’s like summer just won’t leave” aka summer/yeoreum is NOT doing well and he IS NOT OVER MR. LIM AT ALL. you see so many references to summer (the season, the feelings of warmth, the literal character) but it never feels too in your face. this manhwa is so soft and romantic (my far my top fav alongside umibe no etranger and define the relationship)

i’m also so blown away but how soft and romantic yet realistic both mr. lim and yeoreum’s insecurities and grievances are toward the relationship and themselves. it never feels like their misunderstandings are rooted in a place of a lack kf communication but rather one feeling he’s just a bland old man that isn’t suited to hold onto this “kid” that is so talented and amazing and has his whole life ahead of him — and the other wanting to be taken seriously as an adult and that his feelings are much deeper than just a fleeting romance. they both know this but it’s just… “how could you not fall in love?”

extra side note: ppang has SOOOO many good queer and general western internet pop culture references AND IM LOVING IT EVERY SINGLE TIME!!! it’s always so subtle but you can tell how much ppang has taken the time to flesh out this story and i could srsly pick apart why this manhwa is so successful in making our hearts throb.

i need more people to talk to me about this manhwa i could go on for hours talking about them… i love them so much- if u read this far ty for reading my rambles i love my babies hic (/TДT)/

    YEEEEEES!! Obssessed with the constant references to summer and with how romantic this story is . Agreed, Ppang really knows how to make this world feel familiar and real, and Idk how to explain it but the ambiance makes it feel so nostalgic in a way? Like I've seen a romcom like this one before lol

    I love squinting and catching all the meme/art/queer references! (the dog in this chapter is the "I know what you are" dog, right?? Lol)

    LOL YESSS and then ppang added a “god’s own country” movie poster in yeoreum’s room — it’s a really well known gay movie and i LOVEEEE it … so the fact that they added it to the story.. cries…

    but yes!!! stories like these feel so soft and nostalgic… it’s such an inspiration for me as an artist as well,,, i really want to make this kind of lovingly familiar romantic feeling in my work and characters hic
