[Seong Chan-eol’s Comics] I hesitated to recommend it, but 30,000 moviegoers leaves me saying ‘Give it a try’: 「The Dangers in My Heart」

[Seong Chan-eol’s Comics] I hesitated to recommend it, but 30,000 moviegoers leaves me saying ‘Give it a try’: 「The Dangers in My Heart」

I go crazy for subculture. I check out anything with fresh stories, settings or characters — not only films but webtoons, games, comics and animation. I entered the world of fandom through comics: as an adult I read comics as e-books and webtoons on my smartphone, a self-described 'kidult.' But it's less fun alone. I write Seong Chan-eol's Comics to share things that are more enjoyable together, seen from the perspective of an omnivorous fan.
To be frank, this is one of my current favorite comics, but it’s one I avoided writing about for a while. It’s wildly fun and genuinely heart-fluttering, but the barrier to entry is high. If even I, a fan of the series, felt that hesitation, I wasn’t sure how many readers would go along with it.

Who’s Your 'Triangle'? Mixed-Gender Groups That Come to Mind After Watching 〈Wild Sing〉

Who’s Your 'Triangle'? Mixed-Gender Groups That Come to Mind After Watching 〈Wild Sing〉

It’s one of those songs you’ve never heard before, but it sounds familiar. The stage looks new, yet you get a strong sense of déjà vu. If you saw the film that opened on June 3, 〈Wild Sing〉, you probably felt that.
