RoseMary's manga / #Full Color(521)

Attempted Suicide // Kidnapping // Stockholm Syndrome // Lima Syndrome // Opposites Attract // Photography // Runaway Han Soo-Bum wanted to take his own life, but instead he's kidnapped by Lee Hyuk Soo, a guy who is falsely accused of murder. The guy takes him as hostage to escape: thus, begins a crazy, but amazing, journey! - I really liked this story, in particular how the two became closer to each other as they spent more time together. It's a full color manhwa with great art and photographic elements, predominant throughout the story: those photos were so beautiful! Moreover, I think that journey was so meaningful. In fact, the story isn't so focused on the characters' backgrounds, the Yakuza background, how the real culprit was caught etc., but rather on the journey, exactly because it's metaphorical: I think the point is that you never know...something unexpected could happen at any moment and change your life! Like our Han Soo-Bum, who wanted to die, but then he was pulled in that unique journey, which changed his view about things! The same goes for Lee Hyuk Soo: that meeting with Han Soo-Bum and their journey together changed him. At this point I'd say it's fate that brought them together! I felt so good after reading this, totally recommended!

Historical // Showa Era // Poetic // Based on a classic Based on the classic "Under the Cherry Trees" by Motojirou Kajii (early 1900s). Two full color pages, created by Miyamoto Kano, which emphasize the poetic concept of what lies behind the beauty of cherry blossoms. A japanese saying that I have heard many times indeed and that I encountered in other stories: "Cherry blossoms are so beautiful because there are dead bodies buried underneath the trees" Very short tribute by Miyamoto-sensei, but so beautiful!

Main story: Shin Toukyou Yuukaku Monogatari (Ch. 3-5 Glow Vampire)

Basically no plot. Well, I have this kind of fetish about cross-dressing men in lingerie. So for me it was hot, despite the censorship, but too damn short!!

NEVER UNDERSTAND / OUT OF CONTROL - At first, the story didn't seem much impressive and it reminded me way too much of Aitsu no Daihonmei. But the thing is that I couldn't stop reading. Seriously, I was completely hooked! TBH, the art was a problem as well at first, but, as I got used to it, I actually liked it more and more! >> Such a nice school life romcom~♡ It was so cute and funny! Actually, there was also a dark side of the story, as serious issues like bullying, discrimination, prejudice, trauma, etc. played a big part, but I liked how the author represented them and made a good mix of drama and romance. At a certain point, the story became so emotional: there were all kinds of emotions!! Overall, it's a cool and interesting story. Imo, it's totally worth reading it! 『 It was entertaining to follow the multiple romances: • Jaerim x Yuri (Main couple): ugly uke x popular seme // freckles // stubborn, determined uke // handsome seme // dead parents // trauma // bullying • Dohoon x Yumin: childhood friends // bully x otaku • Kang x Dunno: former president x former vice-president ➸ I wanted to see more of these two! • Heeno x Aerak: archery // mole // narcissistic, persistent seme // ex-fat uke // bullying 』 • Ch 83 side story of Dohoon x Yumin • Ch 84-85 side story of Heeno x Aerak > Spin-off: Incorrigible (Story of Cho Ayeon and his path to redemption).
