[Sung Chan-eol's Comics] 「Kindergarten WARS」 Turns Body Count Into Bizarre Rom-Com Fun

I'm obsessed with subculture. If a story or character feels fresh—whether in film, webtoons, games, comics, or animation—I check it out. Comics opened the world of fandom to me, and now I'm a kid-at-heart adult who reads paper volumes as e-books and webtoons on my phone. But it's less fun alone.

In this recurring column, Seong Chan-eol's Comics, I highlight works that are more enjoyable together from the perspective of a jack-of-all-fandoms — a fan with broad, eclectic tastes.
