[Seong Chan-eol’s Comics] Unusual Beings Become High School Students in 「Ruri Dragon」 and 「Ogami Tsumiki and Her Unusual Daily Life」

[Seong Chan-eol’s Comics] Unusual Beings Become High School Students in 「Ruri Dragon」 and 「Ogami Tsumiki and Her Unusual Daily Life」

I have a soft spot for pop-culture fandoms. I check out anything with fresh ideas or characters — not just movies but webtoons, games, manga and animation. Comics opened the door to fandom for me; these days I’m a grown-up kid who reads manga on an e-reader and webtoons on my phone.

[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 E-dam's Jewelry Box] Unpretentious Simplicity, 'Can This Love Be Translated?' 'The Art of Sarah' 'Pavane' Lee E-dam

[Lee E-dam's Jewelry Box] Unpretentious Simplicity, 'Can This Love Be Translated?' 'The Art of Sarah' 'Pavane' Lee E-dam

I am curious about people. Even if they are already recognized actors, today might be the day they are least famous. 'Lee E-dam's Jewelry Box' introduces actors who are continuously reaching new heights. Invest in 'rising stars' at their low points.
The actor that Netflix hurriedly included in the jewelry box. And 〈Can This Love Be Translated. 〉 〈The Art of Sarah〉 〈Pavane〉 have been released one after another, and everyone has included their own actors in their jewelry boxes. That actor is none other than Lee E-dam.

[Chua-young's Music Box] 'Boléro' and 'Exit 8' - Goodbye Digimon, I'm now heading to 'Exit 8'.

[Chua-young's Music Box] 'Boléro' and 'Exit 8' - Goodbye Digimon, I'm now heading to 'Exit 8'.

I get hooked on the music in movies. Music conveys the intimate emotions of characters that sometimes cannot be expressed through visible images and audible dialogues. It can also serve as a window to glimpse the hidden intentions of the creator. For me, understanding film music was one way to connect with the film. 'Chua-young's Music Box' listens to the voice of the film more closely through music. (P.S. I hope you read this while listening to the music.)
The bewilderment I felt when I first watched the movie 〈Exit 8〉 comes to mind. As a Digimon fan, I went to the theater that day, as I usually do, listening to Maurice Ravel's timeless masterpiece 'Boléro' (Boléro), which was used in 〈Digimon Adventure〉 (1999-2000).
