tas's manga / #drama(10)

story kinda felt like a waste of time. interesting premise but the ML was so weird and forceful at the beginning and the progression of their romance did not rly feel believable to me. i also just felt like there was so much unnecessary drama for the sole purpose of shoehorning some more tropes in there. i wanted to drop many times but i stuck through. it's ok if you wanna read smth super tropey and meh and just don't want to think abt anything but prob read smth else instead.

AMAZINGGGGGGG. anything by park taejun is a masterpiece, both super funny and incredibly dark at times. this series was a collection of stories and omg the one about the watch is nightmare fuel i will never forget the horrifying ending of that one. and everyone's favs were ofc the toilet romance and the gamer/bully bromance -- both could've been their own series tbh they were that great.

3.5/5 the visuals were always stunning and i loved s1 w yeonhee and her college life w friends and the progression of her relationship w yikyung!! but then s2 went kinda haywire w the [SPOILERS] cult infilitration arc (but that still makes sense ig and i was into it even tho it veered into a diff kind of drama) and then the whole last arc w yeonhee just?? running away?? and breaking up w yikyung thru a letter??? and completely ghosting him?? and running off to a village??? idk the whole thing was just so unnecessary and soooo many plotholes that just made the ending feel abrupt. honestly yikyung's soft puppy boy character saved the webtoon i was rooting for him the most. and i hope yeonhee can go to therapy to heal bc that girl went thru way too much

VERY fun read. school mystery, uncovering smaller mysteries that eventually lead up to the big one (was not expecting the true answer). so many plot twists and red herrings. love lighthearted mysteries like this one. also each chapter name being a vegetable pun was great!

7/2/22 - 7/7/22 SOOOOOOSOOO GOOD best depiction of friends to lovers i have EVER read. first, i'm ngl, the author def sold me on the woojin and gayoung are JUST friends and they will never be anything more bc their friendship is perfect the way it is and tbh i would be happy w it bc there was never anything missing in their friendship. so when gayoung started developing feelings i was like mmmm i can see where this is going and i like it but also not completely sold that the love she feels is romantic (same w woojin later on). my only nitpicky issue is woojin's confession bc it felt kinda quick BUT i was willing to overlook that bc the rest of the manhwa was just too too good. i literally shed tears during gayoung's first confession and i usually only cry for super sad moments but oh my god the angst in this was just top tier--the repressed feelings, the caring about e/o so so much, the DRAMA w seeing woojin and yoojin together, both of them hurting ahhhgghhhh i loved it even tho it hurt sm also, o-hyung is my fav side character prob of all time (and HIM AND CHANHEE DESERVED THEIR OWN LOVE STORY ARC) he is the sole voice of reason. and boyoon and ari's lil arc too was just too cute but i wasnt as invested in them as i was for chanhee and ohyung idk but they were still cute. and yoojin deserves better than her current bf im still mad shes still w him. overall, 9.999/10

yeah this was not worth the daily pass. it started off as such an interesting premise of the red string fated soulmate but the mc is connected to two diff men bc their souls somehow split and the two men used to be one in their past lives. and it started off as funny shenanigans of her needing to be w both guys or else smth bad happens so she ends up kinda two timing them and the ways she keeps trying to switch from one date to the other in a matter of mins. but when that same thing happened for 20 chapters straight, me and the comment section were getting BOOOOORED like come on there was no progression it was so stagnant and it was rly getting old. then finally the reveal happened ok. [MAJOR SPOILERS] and then the last 3 chapters where huisu just d worded????? and ofc it was in a car accident w hyena and her traumatic past w a car accident bc every single kdrama and manhwa ever. but then bc huisu was brain dead his organs were given to hyena in a transplant AND SHE FORGOT ABT HIS EXISTWNCE WHEN SHE WPKE UP so then she got married to the other guy, wuyeong but i preferred huisu and then they had a happy ever after what???? and then their son is a copy of huisu???? idk this webtoon was so weird and pacing was off and some angles were strange too but i had to struggle to finish this one

9/10 LOVE the art and the characters and I was never ever bored with the story. I really enjoyed the ending, too. I think Jeongto's character arc was left a little unfinished, though. But the very beginning with the pivotal funeral scene that sets up the entire scene was so well done like I was not expecting all the emotions in first 12 chapters. Very good character writing and worldbuilding (the other Gods of hell >>) Yeomra <3

9.9/10 Amazing, well-fleshed-out characters, their interactions felt so real and human and not tropey at all. The characters are definitely the reason I enjoyed this webtoon so much, but the plot was also so well-paced and everything about the slowburn romance and the platonic and familial relationships were also done so gracefully (again, thanks to the amazing characters set in place). Would highly highly recommend
