[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.

[Lee Hwa-jung’s Deep Detox] “I want to be a giant seedless grape, not a strawberry.” Meeting actor Lee Yeon, Part ② of “The 21st-Century Crown Princess,” “Tango at Dawn,” and “Gyeongju Trip”

[Lee Hwa-jung’s Deep Detox] “I want to be a giant seedless grape, not a strawberry.” Meeting actor Lee Yeon, Part ② of “The 21st-Century Crown Princess,” “Tango at Dawn,” and “Gyeongju Trip”

A talk that reaches the actor through deep, steady breathing, like a detox. The actors Lee Hwa-jung meets in her film journalism.
▶ The meeting with actor Lee Yeon continues from Part 1. ​〈Juvenile Judgment〉 is a different situation, but it’s a portrayal of the dark side of teenage youths. I can imagine that darkness running counter to Lee Yeon’s brightness must have felt overwhelming.
