I love the way the artist represents the way people operate in game chat: a whisper--two people off to the side literally whispering in each others ears; somebody lurking in the chat--JJA hiding behind a light post eavesdropping. Funny!
I'm like, wait, green onions aren't expensive?? But maybe they are in SK? So I look up price of green onions in SK and that was how I found out green onions are this whole political thing over there and the price is definitely an issue. The interesting things you learn along the way, man.
So anyway that green onion moment in chapter one is funny on many levels if you are aware of South Korean politics and grocery prices. (≧∀≦)
this is Beom Taeha, tho
hasn't he been yandere-ing over Haesoo for a long time? He knows everything and he has a bottomless wallet. There's no way he isn't aware of Kang Mincheol's every move, too... right?
... what's going to happen?? O.O
When she finds out Beom is not a broke working class kid she is going to feel so betrayed... he is so keen to get close to her he'll even deceive her to do so, and it seems like he doesn't understand how much that will hurt her in the long run--especially because she's just had her heart broken. The new trust built up after such treachery is as fragile as a cobweb. It will be a tragically easy thing to tear it all down.
Coming soon in future chapters:
Eunjae depression montage!
San's trick ankle acting up (must be a storm coming)
704 badass big brother moment!
Mysterious stranger?!? (=・ω・=) <-- accurate representation
Everybody turns into a cat + 704 badass big brother moment part II! ... and more
Equal parts cute and creepy, funny and thoughtful. I really like the feeling of getting a rare peek into another world we never even knew existed, one hidden in plain sight right under our feet. Original and enjoyable with engaging characters and folk-horror vibes. Looking forward to more!
ngl if my husband slept with Yama I don't even know if I could be mad. Like, the King of the Underworld and hottest piece of ass in hell, heaven, and everywhere in between vs. me: An Potato. I'd probably be like, yeah, that's fair. Did you guys do a highlight reel.
The art is fire. Such a breath of fresh air after seeing countless boring cookie cutter works that all look like they used the same book of paper dolls.
... and can you imagine working at that hotel. "Why do we have so many murders here" aslaksdjfgh
In the States, Mr. White Snake would lead with "comprehensive health & dental" and the kid would be like, "say no more, in fact you don't even have to pay me"
The painting you can kinda see on the wall behind Aogiri when he is examining Ichi is "Love and Pain" (popularly known as "Vampire") by Edvard Munch ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
To be fair to Yujin, it really sucks to have guys assuming they get to own you because THEY think you're pretty. It's the Gaston problem. You don't get a choice; you're pretty, and you're a girl so it's not like you're a PERSON. I don't really blame her for being fucked up, tbh. It feels like a hollow victory and like she was just here to give the audience a character to hate. Instead I just find her a teeny bit relatable instead.
