I remember when I read this the first time a few years back, and I was so shaken. This comic has a special place in my heart, and re-reading it made me realized why I liked it so much. Right now, I just hope that when I re-read this, I'll remember the feelings I felt when I finished it the the first time. I remember finishing reading this and looking out my bedroom window, and being enamored by the sunset. I sadly don't live there any more, my childhood house. Reading this reminds me of the warmth I felt that day.
The last reads that gave me this much angst and heartache:
10 years where I loved you the most
Lover boy (jaeha is still my favorite char )
Form of sympathy(season 2 just started by the way! But you should read the previous sequel "For your love". FOS mood is way darker [prob what you are looking for based on your post] while FYL was lighter but the feelings of awkwardness is expressed soo poetically well by the authors writing [huge fan of park nodeoks writing])
Other pieces that I thought were similar were:
A guy like you (def similar premises but you prob already read it was alright...)
December rain (if you want more tragic type of angst)
My pet bat/raising a bat (if you want more shitty parents, don't read if you are uncomfortable with suicide!)
These are prob from top of my head
Prob can recommend more reads if wanted!
10 years I loved you the most hurt so much. I just want a light cry not to have my heart ripped out T_T but thank you so much for the recs! I appreciate it !!
If anyone has any recommendations like this please let me know, it’s legit one of my favorites. It has the perfect layer of angst and regret.
