A Whirlwind Campus Affair

by Uiyoung

Rumor has it that Baram Oh had an affair with her married art school professor. It’s been four years since that debacle, and now she’s back at campus to try and enjoy her college life. But she’s not the only thing who’s returned: there’s rumors of a water ghost roaming the halls, and it just might be following her around.

this was soo fun to read!!!! the humor hits, and the characters are decently developed! and the premise and content touch on topics that i haven't seen many other webtoons handle well. i do think that baram is a bit of a strange character, and if the author had handled her any less carefully, baram would be a cookie-cutter pollyanna trope -- but the author did so well! we see her gain and sustain meaningful friendships, express difficult emotions, overcome adversity, and stay true to herself and her values.

i think the conclusion of her love triangle situation was also lovely. after reading many other webtoons where i wonder how male leads can cross a woman's clear boundaries without being criticized / held accountable by either audience or author, this webtoon offered a refreshing take!!! i love baram oh (the main character), and i admire this webtoon's author for how much work this story must have taken...! congratulations on its completion and publication :")

would recommend this to friends who want to read a generally light-hearted webtoon that explores more complex themes (mental health, adultery?!!)!

It's a really fun read. I loved the sense of humour and the detailed panels.
I usually read books with heavy plots so this was a nice change.
I would recommend it to the people who would like turn off their brain and simply enjoy a fun, wholesome, funny story.

All the characters had something unique about them. They had their own reasons for their actions and they all grow and changed for the better as the story progresses.So basically what I wanna say is that it's a good, laidback story was likeable characters. Would recommend.

goddd this handled such complex topics in a way that webtoons usually don't touch or stumble through. every character really shined, especially baram. also it was really funny and the art was great. i definitely think the first half was stronger than the second, but there was still a lot to love. deffo one of my favs of all time.

You can’t fail with oil painting, as long as you don’t give up. If you just give it time to let the paint dry, and paint over mistakes you can fix any painting.

This is probably one of the funniest comics I've ever read. Which is wild, considering the setup is so dark. I'll probably reread it just for that fact- and I'm definitely reading more by this author.
Like everything from the writing to the art to the characters was 🤌 the Bob Ross satanic summoning circle will live in my head rent free forever. And the sparkling coffee shop owner who poisons all his customers with his terrible cooking, but they keep coming back because he's so good-looking - probably my favorite character. The flamboyantly dressed grumpy cat is probably favorite character number two. I can't wait to read more of this author's stuff, or to reread this comic in Spanish.

This is one of the most beautiful webcomics I have ever read. The characters are all so well written. The story is the perfect blend of humor and depth. It was so good I’m not even mad that Baram didn’t end up with my favorite of the romantic options.

I liked it but it ended kind of abruptly for my taste!

[Yasmin · Rating 4 out of 5]

The ending was really satisfying and I really loved the outfit of the female lead. I still don't know how the blonde guy was able to keep the coffee shop open even without clients tho.

Bizarre Adventure Baram is amazing. But really, she's such a positive force of nature even after going through all that trauma 😭

I wasn't rooting for SY in the beginning, but I loved seeing how their relationship unfolded! So cute and natural and healthy. They're both golden retrievers in love.

Edited on the 8th April 2024 -

I finished this webtoon and I really like Baram's positive attitude. She's a good person and the ending was cute.

Original review is under this line:

The webtoon is still ongoing as of writing this review and I read up to episode 79.

I like Baram and I think she's a strong character. Even after all the hardships she faced, she never gave up and she was always positive. Her character development is A+ and she learned to stand up for herself while still maintaining her boundaries. I also liked the friendships she forged over time, especially with her girl friends because they believe in her and support her.

As for the love interest, I have to admit that I'm not too interested in that part. Although there are 3 handsome guys around her, it's quite clear which one of them is supposed to be the ML so I'm not surprised with how the romance is developing in the story.
