Okay the thing that resonated with me most is the importance of friendship that this manhwa displayed. No matter who comes along they stay true to their friendship and that’s so amazing because I can personally relate to that so much. Sunjoon is manipulative and seriously toxic in a way. But I get where he’s coming from. Love sora and her character. Naru is pretty messed up but I find him hard to like. Again I can relate to him too. It’s such an incredibly slow burn tho and that pisses me off. It’s like this isn’t a BL it’s more of a shoujo.

Sonwoon is a liar and I don’t feel like it was justified enough. Seokjo is hot af. I feel like his trauma and issues could have been explored more. Also sowoons bestie is pretty hardcore. Plot and story was okay. If a more in-depth exploration was done on characters and their past stories as well as side characters, this could have been something really amazing. Still an interesting read tho!

Truly worth a read. Beautiful art, beautiful characters and portrays many complicated themes. I’d have loved to see them kiss romantically at least!

Incredibly beautiful art with unique characters. The story is riveting, and is so realistic. The trauma they both face is equally as gritting. The ending is well done as well. And almost as great as the art is the poetry and prose of the words and lines used. This is definitely stellar quality!

As expected by this author, the words and sentences are beautiful and poetic. I absolutely love how Love is explored in this and the focus on evanescence. Would have given more stars if the story offered more explanations and explorations of the world and concepts

Chew and Swallow

Complete | Gawee | 2014 released

What a read. What an absolutely fantastic piece of writing this is. What I like is how poetic the writing is, how beautiful the art is and how well-crafted the plot, characters and story is. Abuse, power dynamics, psychological issues and privilege are key themes of this manhwa. And of course love. How love isn’t everything but how it could be everything too. One of the most unique things about this manhwa is that they addressed rape, abuse and other abusive behavior. The perpetrators repent after genuine apologies and have redemption arcs. Minjae is such a powerful character, more so than taewo too. It’s difficult to put in words but suffice to say this is close to a masterpiece depiction of a complicated relationship and complicated individuals. An extremely powerful, gritty and realistic one.

Escape into Oblivion

Complete | Gawee | 2017 released

As expected of the author, another brilliant work. Even to the end, the suspense and the thrill remained. Woojin is such a piece of shit but the events behind him kind of make us understand why hes like that. And hwon: man what a fucking brilliant character. Absolutely In awe of how the author managed to pull him off! Fuck man this manhwa is so dark and twisted and it gets you twisted along with it.

Chase is an abusive piece of shit. Did he rape Shawn? Seems like it. Neighbor/bar owner is such a sweetie I love him. I can understand Shawn too. But that ending was so rushed like.. story is okay gives insight into a lot of issues.

Juniors Witt is legendary and his transformation is nothing short of incredible! I love hank too he’s so beautiful and soft and amazing. Such a lovely couple. I loved the story so far and the plot. There’s enough mystery, tender heartfelt moments and humor to just elevate this to greatness. I liked how juniors home situation is explored as well as his transformation. Keep giving us this gold author!!
