Great chemistry, sexual tension, and initial buildup, but the ending was ultimately disappointing.

2.5/5. This was so messed up. I found this much less nuanced and developed than, for example, KS and Warehouse. I really disliked the ending as well. It was honestly pretty cringy at parts, particularly some of the sex scenes.

Ch 8. It's grotesque, gory, disturbing, and twisted, but pretty interesting! The art style is super unique as well.

An Uncomfortable Truth

Complete | EErun | 2016 released

Masterful storytelling. This is probably one of the best manhwas I've ever read. I've never felt such an intense roller-coaster of emotions; from fear to discomfort to disgust to frustration. The depth of the backstories behind the characters and the way each of their stories were uncovered to reveal the motivations behind their actions was thrilling and fascinating and beautifully written. I felt sympathy and disgust towards each of the characters at some point throughout the story; the characters were so well-written. I've never seen such a masterful portrayal of the butterfly effect in a manhwa; it was frustrating that such a small petty misunderstanding could ruin years of a person's life, or how a small decision Jaeha made could alter his brother's whole mindset. The ending is just so tragic. Moreover, the art in this manhwa is probably one of its greatest assets, especially the faces that were drawn as monsters; they really made me feel disgusted and uncomfortable, and set the story's creepy atmosphere. If there was one thing I would improve, it would probably be the ending. It seemed quite rushed, and I felt Jaeha's death was not fully realized; it was not as impactful as it could have been.
