I still haven’t read much manhwa. Something tells me that this isn’t typical. It’s a slow, reflective coming of age story, surprisingly frank in how it shows a young girl’s sexual awakening. This certainly won’t be for everyone. The characters are drawn in a very mannered style, the whole thing is quite slow to unfold, and it verges on navel gazing at certain points.
