kahae's manga / #sweet(83)

this mangaka always has such poignant works -- a lot of showing not telling -- the train metaphor is great, from both the mc and boss' povs -- the drama is muted but the emotions are sorrowful, melancholy, and uplifting -- lovely and relatable

1. something like a fairy tale about a boy and a mysterious monster in the woods with layers of history the boy ends up uncovering between the two 2. if beauty and the beast were the same person -- how being too beautiful can make someone feel like less of a person (kinda reminds me of how people treat cha eunwoo and i got sad :c ) 3. sci-fi BL of The Martian (the potatoessss) with a twist all the stories were really well executed and cohesive one shots -- would love seeing a movie of each

yul is right: dd is a hunk LOL. my mans smooth af.

the colored art is fuckin gorgeous -- really captures the whole "springtime of youth" essence

a simple and cute story -- kinda shows the danger of not communicating and letting anxieties ruminate, somewhat a coming-of-age? -- the HIV part surprised me, brought some reality into the narrative i appreciated

3.5/5 -- ch 2 -- cooking + cohabitation? they've already got the foundations of a good marriage goin xD -- plus friends that don't care how big of a bite you take when sharing food are ride or die no cap
