"One" is one Manhwa you can't go without.! :D

In case some people don't know, Manhwa is like Manga, but it is Korean comics. I have grown fond of Manhwa, I love their art style, my favorite is Snow Drop(I highly recomend Snow Drop), and there are other Manhwa's that out there like Faeries Landing, Les Bejioux(spelled wrong? Prolly), and Ragnorok. Point is, manga isn't the only thing now, and Manhwa is printed from a left-to-right format, so its not what we call "backwards". Now, you wondering, is "One" unique, worth reading? Well, unique in story, not really: So it goes Jenny You is a famous Pop Princes "Doll", but she is your regular diva with a princess complex. She hates what she's doing, but her mother makes her. The other lead character is Eumpa One, he is new to Daewon High School, and unlike all other guys, is unimpressed by Jenny's beauty. Instead he longs after a rather plain looking girl named "Younjou". Before long though Eumpa begins noticing Jenny, but not for the typical reasons necassarily. Eumpa is also a musical genius, he is actually a genius all around, he is 1/2 Korean, but lived in the U.S. and learned Korean in a month to study there(Yikes!). Now, even though the story isn't all to unique, the characters are great, the art work is great, and I *LOVE* their facial expressions, much the same way I *Love* the expressions in Snow Drop, but the style is much different than that of Snow Drop. And though these characters are the same age as in Snow Drop, they actually "look" their age.! Anyways, I *hope* you'll give "One" a try, its "one" great Manhwa.! Trust me.! God Bless & *enjoy* ~Amy
