RoseMary's manga / #Full Color(521)

Based on the homonymous movie in which starred Lee Jong-Suk, one of my fav actors! (｡♡‿♡｡)

Vampire x Human + Slow Romance - I loved Orange Marmalade, not only because I liked the romance, but also the plot and the supportive characters. Well, the story is actually bittersweet, with all the bullying, Ma Ri's attempted suicide, Jae Min's traumatic past etc., but it's also funny, so I enjoyed reading it. Of course, Jung Jae Min and Baek Ma Ri are such an adorable couple: I really liked their interaction, especially at the beginning...it was so funny that embarassing scene on the train (*≧▽≦)ﾉｼ)) [Containing spoilers] But I have to say that I really wanted to punch Jae Min when he called Ma Ri a disgusting blood-sucking monster! Geez, I thought that she was worried for nothing because he'd accept her without a doubt, but the twist of fate wanted that he actually hated vampires because his mother abandoned him to be with a vampire! That changed everything...arghh I didn't expect that! He resented her mother for that, but he fell in love with a vampire himself without knowing! And he found out about Ma Ri being a vampire in such a bad way! I was so sad for our cute Ma Ri, how Jae Min's words hurt her...they got me worried, but then he finally accepted her and it was a happy ending!! I also liked whitie, Han Sihoo: I thought he was cool when he helped Ma Ri and dealt with blondie, Jo Ah Ra, but also when he punched Jae Min and spoke to him (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ The only problem is that at the end his relationship with Chaerin seemed a bit off...I mean, after he treated her like that and after what she did as a consequence (btw she didn't even apologize for what she did to Ma Ri), he ended up with her just like that!? That didn't make any sense. He didn't love her, but it seemed as if he decided to keep that burden! I think he deserved a better ending, as he was a relevant character in the story. And the ending surely seemed rushed...that's why I'm not a fan of time skip. Anyway, overall I think it's a really good story. I really liked it and it was different from other cliché vampire stories. In fact, despite the core is discrimination against vampires, the story conveys a more general message alluding to our society, as it portrays harsh aspects of real life such as bullying, prejudice, racism etc.
