Halfway through this manga I couldn’t help but voice a loud, “Why the heck am I still reading this?”
I’ll tell you why, because it’s more or less entertaining. At least that’s the conclusion I made when ten more chapters went by and I was still reading. Either that or I am definitely a masochist.

“..it’s a misunderstanding…”

Summary (Skip if wanted)
This is the story of a girl, who didn’t cry a river and drown the whole world. Instead Jae Yoo got drunk and confessed to the guy she liked. He rejected her and feeling defeated she started telling her problem to the only thing that will surely not walk away from her, a pole. Somewhere a long that conversation she bangs her head against the pole and knocks herself out. Like all embarrassing scenarios there is always someone watching. In this case it was Ji Hoo, a random guy just passing by. She won’t give up on love just yet and her friend sets her up on a bind date. The boy loves her she doesn’t share his feelings and rejects him. Still having no place to live Jae Yoo wants to live with “hot guys” and is determined to get into a boarding house that is famous for it. And she does and thus her story really begins. How will Jae Yoo deal with living with Ji Hoo, who happens to be the best friend of the boy she rejected, a gang leader, and all his friends?

The Characters:
If I could use one word to describe the main characters it would be, annoying. I’m not kidding. They are immature and constantly hitting each other, fighting and then ignoring the other person. I felt like the author wanted to put depth in them but it didn’t come out that way. There are some that make it worth while like Soo Bin and Eun Jan, the male character that appears towards the end. Just because they add a little something extra to this cliché of a manga. Though they themselves are a cliché, confused yet?
In my opinion, it lacked realism. The way the relationship was portrayed was cold and aloof. Not true for their age. But then again they aren’t experienced in relationships either. The ship could go both ways in this sea.

Jae Yoo was what kept me reading at the beginning just because she contradicted herself. She was brave but pathetic at the same time. She confronted the bullies in a mocking way but she couldn’t tell the guy she liked that she liked him. Not to mention that she is hardheaded as can be, too many hits to the head if you ask me. Her role was a monotony of; get drunk, fall, eat, say things you don’t mean and eat. Not in that order.

Ji Hoo’s character kept steady throughout. He barely shares information but his action speak more of him than any words can. Between him and Jae Yoo I really wanted to set the manga on fire and watch it burn.

The art is nothing impressive. The fighting scenes, though not many are pretty bland. The way the characters are drawn is common. Now, with color like the manga covers, that looks way more impressive. Maybe because of the freely use of color. With most Korean manga I have read, I have the same issue, the eyelashes are blonde sometime. I have no idea why it bothers me so, maybe because it makes the characters look unattractive? Also in this manga whenever they blush or get embarrassed the way that was drawn made me think the manga was dirty. See for yourself.

If you’re wondering why I chose the words, “It’s a misunderstanding,” as my quote. Honestly it’s because the whole story felt like a big misunderstanding and was said by more than three characters throughout.

If they would have gotten the time to explain things instead of just turning their back and walking away maybe it could all have been avoided and I wouldn’t have less IQ points. :D
