A good start to the series. It is actually kind of confusing because there are quite a few characters being introduced but who cares? Everyone's story is engaging and I love it when their lives start to collide. This manga is very prettily drawn and especially the back cover is so gorgeous.

I am interested to see where Ji-Jun and Ah-In go in their relationship. Ji-Jun is hot tempered and belligerent and loves to go after girls while Ah-In is his quiet friend, always there for him and who secretly pines for him.

The protagonist of this series appears to be Hyung-In who is starting to re-evaluate her life after her friend commits suicide. The backstory behind this is especially sad and sadly realistic. One day she meets Kang-Dae Ko and he leaves her with an invitation to come to Exit 3. As the manga nears its end Hyung-In, who has now left school and studies and wants to do something different, decides to go to the place Kang Dae Ko mentioned and she gets there. We are left wondering what exactly Exit 3 is.

I am looking forward to the next volume full of angst and rebellious teenagers.

I'm not exactly sure how I feel about this story. I was kinda of confused while reading it. Hyung-in seems to be the main character in this book. And it goes into her character at school and about a friend she had. She would acknowledge the friend outside of school but not in school. And wouldn't stand up for her. At first it just keeps saying the Friend went away. But if you read the back cover it seems the friend committed suicide. Anyway, Hyung-in meets two other guys in this. The one guy she just bumps into and it goes into his background a bit. Like how one of his friends like's him, and I think he has a thing for this friend's sister. Then she meets another guy that has a dog . I like this character he seems like he tries to make her have fun. But at the same time I don't know much about him. I will have to wait for the second book to see what is really happening and how this story proceeds.
