JUST MY LOVE CONFESSION FOR THIS STORY

Second time reading this majestic masterpiece and once more I'm totally shattered after reading the author's final words. Maybe I'm a way too sensitive (actually I'm quite sure of it), but my eyes cannot make it through that text of gratitude without a good dose of tears. Especially considering it was written by someone who believes that their wonderful, powerful and moving story might be anything but impactful, gorgeously life-changing and (in some ways) perfect.

Reading about a gentle, cute and innocent boy - rejected, abused and blamed for the life's unpredictable setbacks -, finding it's way out of an [apparently] insurmountable struggle through kindness and autruism, instead of becoming a total nihilist and hateful person, is such a good experience...

And then there was that piece of work, totally selfish jerk, who couldn't avoid the fate of falling in love with this blue-eyed, pathologically gentle kid who kept reaching out to him no matter what. Watching love take Hanhoo over so mercilessly to the point of life itself turning empty and meaningless without Chansol was incredibly warm and bittersweet.

I could keep going on and on (and on) about this story - I would sound like a lunatic, however seeing kindness being acknowledged and witnessing ordinary people overcome the worst parts of grief, while still choosing happiness... that was priceless, and I had to say that... This manhwa gave me a feeling of watching the seasons drift smoothly through a garden, letting me glance at each and every flower bud bloom, at its own time and in its own unique way.

Yeah, the plot becomes kind predictable at some point of the webtoon, and a lot of coincidences had to fall into place in order to things to align by the end. But the core points and powerful messages of Park Hanhoo's Manager surpass any minor - or should I say barely noticeable, microscopic, atomic - flaws. The only complaint I have is not being able to read more of this gem.

Kim Tac, you absolutely have no idea of how incredibly talented and sensitive and kind and heartwarming you are for giving birth to this incredible work. I'm sad for those who haven't read Park Hanhoo's Manager yet, and I am particularly sorry for those who despise this soul-healing medicine disguised as a love story.


Thanks to the brave ones who made it through this bible, I just wanted to write something like "I was here" and express my love for this work.
