You're So Cool

This manga was defenitly a change of pace for me. A pleasent suprise. The first two chapters did nothing for me and I considered dropping it there, but when I got to chapter 3 things did a 360 turn. It's not your typical shoujo manga and it was nice with a new concept. Not the usual princess-prince-lovestory. If you're looking for something that will make you laugh, and if you don't mind slow progressing love, this is defenitly something you should check out! The story had a lot of interesting little twists and the characters are not your typical ones. I like the artwork as well and overall itwas a very enjoyable reading.

I liked this series. The characters were complex but had a certain charm to them. It was nice how there were a few "types" of relationships portrayed in the story, made it more interesting. The plot line moved along nicely with intense situations followed up by some sort of resolvedness to it.

Seriously funny and refreshing shoujo manwha I finished in a day. The first few chapters had me struggling, having thought ''Oh god, its the standard shoujo line with the slightly wacky girl falling in love with the most popular guy'' I stuck it through only for the promise of a plot twist. I've been a shoujo fan long enough to know a heralded 'plot twist' can either make or break a manga/manwha, so was intrigued to see which way the proposed twist would turn... I must say I was incredibly surprised, and felt the manwha seriously picked up from there on out. I think the reason manypeople have commented on how the first few chapters were a struggle before this 'plot twist' is because I don't believe the author was quite comfortable in her story, or she was anticipating the turn more than we were! On the story itself, I called it refreshing earlier. That it most definitely is. Having gone from manga to manga flinging one shoujo cliche after another at me in a dramatic fashion, I can happily say this manwha didn't need to fall down on the crutches of cliches ... whatsoever. There was no major love triangle, no old flames rising up to cause trouble. Thinking back, I'm actually hugely surprised because it seemed like so much happened, and in most shoujos, for stuff to happen you've got to dust off and pull out those familiar cliched arcs to progress from strength to strength. I'm not criticising these cliches, sometimes they are used very well. But the fact that Lee Young-hee could produce a GOOD, entertaining story without using these cliches should be all the more applauded. Moving on to the characters, I think thats where the story did fall down. Having six volumes and no use of cliches, Young-hee could have gone into backstory's. In fact, I'd have been happier if they did. I'm a huge fan of backstories and like to know whats happened to understand a certain character. We were giving a fair amount about Seung Ha but that is a given for most mangas, we do find out about the main male character. I'd have personally liked to have found out more about the two side characters with their own running story - Jae and Hyun Ho. Especially Jae who I felt Young-hee attempted to scratch the surface of his path with but couldn't find a sharp enough tool to dig right down. This being said, I have to admit the humour was second-to-none. The refreshing way this manwha is approached and the story line itself means that you already have a huge possibility of humour running the whole way through this story, and the author definitely exploited that to good use. Finally, the art. I'm a huge fan of manwha art, I find it a tad more realistic than manga. Look no further than 'Teen Spirit' to understand why I've said that. The art in this was nothing hugely special, but I definitely felt at home with it. Often we can be presented with unfamiliar characters in the next panel due to the way they've been drawn. Young-hee kept the continuity and so I'm happy with that. To sum up what I've said, I recommend you to read this manwha at all costs. Short and sweet - the way I tend to like it - with good humour, this is a definite front runner for good quality shoujo manwhas. I'm off to go find some more by this author.

I read this manga when I first got into manga's and so on. I picked it randomly because the name sounded amusing and the art looked nice. I feel in love! This is one my top mangas. It's kind of a shoujo plot line but there are differences. You think he'll play nice guy but not Seung Ha slaps you in the face showing how he really is. Anyone one who loves comedy/romance should give it a try!
