[Sung Chan-yeol’s Comics] In 〈He and the Moon〉, a Big Family Feels Both Close and Far Away

[Sung Chan-yeol’s Comics] In 〈He and the Moon〉, a Big Family Feels Both Close and Far Away

I’m drawn to subculture in all its forms. I don’t just follow films; I check out webtoons, games, manga and animation — anything that offers a fresh story, theme or character. Comics first opened the door to fandom for me, and now I read manga as e-books and webtoons on my smartphone — an adult who...

[Seong Chan-eol’s Comic Books] She Lied Her Way Into the School Heartthrob’s Engagement in 〈The Glory of Yuriko the Liar〉

I am obsessed with subculture. I look into anything that handles fresh stories, themes, or characters—not only films but webtoons, games, manga, and animation. Having entered fandom through comics, I’ve grown into the kind of adult who reads manga as e-books and webtoons on a smartphone while still...

[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.
