moody_bish's manga / #Crime(3)

For one thing, the art is phenomenal. The plot is dragging and is mostly dialogue. It's frustrating and tends to victim blame. It has family issues and foreboding obsessive-possessive traits that endagers life. Personally, I feel like the characters blab on and on redundantly which makes the art fade in the background even if its beautiful. The overall plot is great though. It gives you a healthy premature end where the MC is freed from a potentially more toxic relationship.

One thing, the author doesn't romanticize a psychopath and even addresses that fact that most readers would overlook his mental disposition because of how he projects himself. Also, the emotional and mental conflict which Kirin goes through is transparent. He acknowledges the problem and doesnt romanticize Kang moo as well. He is aware of his role and his own intention to make sure that Kyungmoo isn't harmed by his urges. I just love this!

I have issues with the portrayal of doctor's word choices. It sounds very irresponsible to promise something especially when someone's life is on the line. Also, it's so stressful how it's just toxic to be in the hospitals in this webtoon. Encouraging a competitive atmosphere to strengthen the interns, residents, doctors mentally is different from the toxicity of verbal and mental abuse I just read. But it's also amusing how they diss US' healthcare or at least the hospital used here. oh, and i really think sangmin is literally asking for help with the amount of times he warned or hinted others about his crime. i was already thinking that he just wanted to die thru his friend. a twisted portrayal of his desire to be stopped and desire to be remembered by Jinhyun. Coz, i know he will never be justified... it's just that sangmin is broken by his father... and i'm still pissed by the redundancy of "cheer up" as if that's supposed to be Jinhyun being a 'friend'. What he did for Hwaemi, listening to her and offering his time... romance aside, that would have made him a friend to Sangmin. He's just as self-absorbed as his past, except he has been blessed by God and by his experience with failure.
