[Seong Chan-eol's Comics] The extreme realism of 'Soohee0 (tngmlek0),' the webtoon that had readers saying, 'This author is clearly obsessed with streaming'

I'm obsessed with subculture. I check out anything with fresh stories, settings, or characters — movies, webtoons, games, comics, animation. Having discovered fandom through comics, I became what I call an "e-adult" — an adult who reads printed comics via e-books and webtoons on my phone. But it's less fun alone.

[Chu Ah-young's Music Box] Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' and 'Heal the World' That Tried to Turn Dreams into Reality

I am captivated by music in films. Music sometimes reveals a character's intimate emotions that visible images and spoken lines alone cannot convey. It can become a window into the creator's hidden intentions. For me, understanding film music was one way of reaching a movie. 'Chu Ah-young's Music Box' listens to a film's voice up close by way of its music. (P.S. I hope you listen to the music while reading.)

[Joo Seong-cheol’s Lockers] The Great Dancer Turned Film Director Summoned by “Michael”: Bob Fosse’s “All That Jazz”

I can’t help but get hooked on the objects in movies.
