La vita di campagna non è certamente facile, e Sung Ho può contare solo su sé stesso. Il primo giorno non è dei migliori e si scontra con Haebom, capo del villaggio e proprietario dell'unico mini market della zona, che lo accusa di essere un ladro. Nonostante il problematico inizio, Sung Ho farà sempre più affidamento su di lui, e questo porterà i due ad avvicinarsi molto.

I really have been wanting to find a manhwa that speaks to me, because so far the ones that have caught my eye have been misses for me -- and I'm so happy to say that this one fit the bill SO perfectly and was a total win!! I had such good hopes for it that I went ahead and blind bought it, and I don't regret it one bit, I'm very satisfied with this purchase!

I thought it was really satisfying that this was a story about two adults (28 and 36 years old) dealing with adult priorities, like raising a child, finding a job, being a community leader, et cetera. It really spoke to me. I also think it's really funny that the 36-year-old love interest thinks our 28-year-old protagonist is way too young, like a baby, because that's actually so real. I don't often see many books (though I mostly read manga) talk about how young your 20s seem to anyone over the age of 30, because a lot of times in books like these characters that are 20s-30s are treated like they're ancient. This just was grounded in realism in ways like that, and I found it so refreshing and lovely.

The story was just great. It's been a while since I've read something that's genuinely made me squeal aloud and kick my feet-- but this book seriously did the trick for me! I thought the growing feelings and partnership that these two display is so wholesome. And it's so fun to have that classic tsundere character doing tsundere things in the character of the love interest. You can tell he's such a good guy despite all of his tsun. I really grew to love all the characters through this volume and already feel itchy for more.

In terms of criticism, my usual criticism for manhwa stands. I think the art needs a bit of work, especially anatomically. This book feels a little bit caught in old-school yaoi stylings, with excessively muscled characters with triangle-shaped torsos and smallish heads. It's not bad -- in fact, it has a certain charm to it, in a way -- but I do find it a tiny bit distracting. One thing I also don't like about manhwa or webtoons in general is the usage of Clip Studio Paint 3D assets, because the mixing of 3D assets and 2D drawings just doesn't look good to me, and I find it incredibly distracting as well, but in a bad way.
However, I know it's difficult to hire a background artist and even more difficult to learn how to draw backgrounds well, so I empathize (as a fellow artist)... but for a product that readers are paying money for, I do wish the usage of assets was less, or at the very least a) traced or b) better incorporated.

On a similar note, the love interest's design doesn't speak to me very strongly. I do think he's adorable, especially when he's chibi or in his funny sea lion form (which always made me grin and giggle), and of course I find him immensely charming as a character, but his bangs and blue eyes... I just don't like them much. I think if I had one thing I would change about this, I would change the way he looks a bit. His forehead-covering bangs paired with how insanely muscular he is just makes for a funny and weird combo for me.

But even with these criticisms in mind, the story was such that the things that bothered me didn't bother me all that much, and I still had a really great time. And it's true what everyone is saying... the baby is so goddamn cute. If you're going to read for anything, read for the baby!!

Edit: Oh, and I also want to note the quality of the physical book. I think another thing that drives me away from print manhwa is that I don't like the feel of heavy, glossy paper. It's heavy to carry around and feels uncomfortable when I'm reading (for no particular reason I think, other than I'm not used to it), and although the colors are quite vibrant, I don't like the look and feel of it for a novel-length-and-sized book like this one.
This print manhwa has a matte finish that I find much more enjoyable, both in the way it feels and the way it looks. As a product, I would recommend this, though I'm always very impressed with Seven Seas book designs and their offerings. That's all!

Este manhwa es super divertido, tierno, sexy, precioso. Lo doy todas las palabras bonitas que existan. Puede llegar a ser predecible en algunas ocasiones pero eso no evitó que me conmoviera en otros momentos, y ni hablar de fangirlear, simplemente no paré de amar todo. Aún no lo termino pero con lo que voy de historia no creo que vaya a degustarme, caí redondita por los 3. Algo que le da muchos puntos a favor es la buena comunicación que hay entre los protagonistas 💚 No puedo decir nada malo de esta historia ✨ se las recomiendo a todos si les gusta este tipo de historia y quieren leer algo tierno, sexy a la vez, que se pasa volando porque atrapa al instante y quieres ser feliz 🥰

Kwon haebeom is my favorite kind of ML. He is grumpy on the outside but amazing. I also love the walrus. it's so cute. This is a slow burn but I like the tenderness and softness from both characters that at the outside seem very macho. Also love their interactions with the baby!!

This is one of my comfort series
Read if you love:
Single dad with no ex drama
Double bi-awakening
Healthy communication
Found family
Slow burn (only a kiss in this volume!)
Low angst with a side of laughs. Honestly, Haebom is so funny

PERFETTO.
Il disegno è splendido e la palette dei colori anche.
La prevalenza del blu e del verde davvero rende la sensazione del sole in una giornata tersa su tutto il volume anche in scene che non si svolgono necessariamente davvero in una giornata di sole
La trama è semplice ed efficace e il volume si concentro sul presentare i tratti fondamentali dell’ambientazione e i tratti determinanti dei personaggi e lo fa benissimo
La storia romantica inizia relativamente lentamente ma è già bellissima e ADORO la centralità della bambina del protagonista e la dolcezza di tutte le interazioni che la coinvolgono soprattutto con l’interesse romantico
100/1000000000

hands down the greenest manhwa I’ve ever laid eyes on—like chlorophyll on steroids. every time I read it, I turn into a walking garden. I feel so floral, I might as well be Sung Ho himself, photosynthesising emotions and blooming with feels
