Mixed feelings about this one. The drinking problem is a weak pretence for getting closer and the unrequited love for the childhood friend is overdone but some parts were really beautifully portraid. Some intimate scenes were so intimate I was embarassed to watch. Well, I guess It's a nice short.

Very good and fun ! The main character is an emotive thirty-ish tailor, who's heart is very easily moved and fall in love as fast. You get quickly attached to that likeable and cute overthinking grown-up. It's funny to watch him waver between his boss who seem to send ambiguous signals and a little crush on an anonymous highschooler met in a train station. The shortness of the story makes it look like a slice of life and that's part of it's charm. The overall feeling is fluffy, cute, a little silly some times and funny. I recommend !

Beautiful story. The characters are complexe, have depht and are very diverse in their nature. My favorite one, because of the beauty of his heart and the astonishing drawing of his character, is Junseo. I laughed, felt butterflies in my stomach and felt both sad and happy at the end... One of the great pieces I've read this far. The art is as beautiful. Wonderful work.

Wonderful. A gentle love story between two highschoolers on a background of sad social misery and homophobia. It is tragic, but it was so beautiful in the purest way.

Waaaw a mind blowingly pleasant surprise ! The story is so well told it's amazing ! Everything is paced perfectly, the romance is not rushed and the sex is auggghh to kill for and just places at the right time. Their dialogues and inner monologues are really what's exceptionnal here: their's nothing useless or shallow, every thaught is meaningful and filled with emotions. It all goes crescendo until last chapters and BOY THEY WERE GOOOOD ! All the great points are magnified in those chapters and I was swept away by all the emotions. Not even mentioning the beautiful art. Bonus point for the funniness and the hilarious side characters. I can't wait for next releases.

Very good story of multiple characters evolving in the very traditional and rural 19th century east to middle Asia. The pace is slow but it feels nice not to be rushed. The daily hurdles in the villages and clans (marriages, alliances, struggles around land ownerships etc...) are perturbed by the threat of foreign invasion. It's basically a very good slice of life with all the elements of life: family, friends, enemies, love, sadness, struggles, happiness...

Quite disappointed with the lack of coherence in the story-telling. Events follow one another without much link, and lack likelyhood. The smut is a little pointless and where did the romance come from ??? Odd

I love it ! So good so good sooo gooooood Paced, balanced, clever, funny, hot. All of it. A million times worth re-reading. One of those stories you don't want to end and fear you won't see anything better afterwards . The concept is simple and old, an office romance between à man and his senpai, but as always it's the narration that makes it a whirlwind of emotions embeded in timely and clever jokes and general lightness. It's a true plaisure to read, such a joy, and the characters are so endearing and lovely. When the author makes the partner stop in his tracks towards sex and take all the time necessary to cheer up the other, make him laugh to forget his stress and tension, so that they can both fully enjoy what they were actually looking forward to, then you know you have a true gem in your hands.
