Hello's manga / #Lives in darkness(1)

Incidentally Living Together

Complete | Shin Yuri | 2000 released

Rating this story 4 stars because of the overload sex scenes huhuhu. I feel like it would've been better if it had less or no sex scenes at all, like emphasis on the plot was given throughout the story, not only on the later chapters, though overall. I'm so proud of their metamorphosis — how this story highlights growth, baby steps, and progress. Yes, they're problematic, but I'm glad they've been emphatic of each other's past traumas and finally learned to accept their differences!! I also cried a lot especially on Wooyeon's backstory, it reminded me of the "right person, wrong time" dynamic but the prospect of ending one's life because the one's they loved so dearly ended theirs, just defeats the desire of the latter for the former to live a happy life without them. It's not like the Romeo and Juliet type of beat that they would love each other eternally, but accentuating the fact that one should still go on despite their world crumbling because life may offer them something better in the future, and I believe that Inwoo is proud of Wooyeon for taking a leap of faith!! I love how this story doesn't invalidate the progress of one to the other because just stepping out your house willfully (what Junwoo finally did after series of breakthroughs and disheveled paths) symbolizes the progress even if it may seem to be little. I still have so many thoughts that I want to articulate but I'll end it here. I love their dynamic and story, how they managed their problems, and finally filling the voids and fighting the traumas that have been holding them back. I learned so much from this story, I adore the author
