RoseMary's manga / #Stockholm Syndrome(52)

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!

A middle-school student gets kidnapped and...that's the beginning of a great comedy! - This is one of my few favourite comedies. Such an hilarious and entertaining reading! I think that it takes a capable author not only to make complex, elaborated stories, but also to make a well-done, nice comedy...and I think Hashida Yukari brilliantly pulled it off! For me, Waru is truly a timeless funny reading! #Middle-school / High-school Student x Kidnapper
