"An amazing webtoon to warm your heart."

"Like watching an animation." 

Hit the new webtoon; ‘Your Letters’

 

A webtoon full of mysterious and warm feelings; Your Letters. Many of the readers who watched the webtoon said that they seem to like watching animation from Studio Ghibli. It leads you feeling of warmth in your mind with childhood memories and fully filled with stirring emotion.

 

Why I feel like watching a short animation movie? Is it because of the story or the style of the picture?

 

The atmosphere of episode 1 is quite dark. There is a guy who has been bullied at school in Sori’s class. Most of the classmates know the situation of the guy. But they do not care about this. Why? This is because if somebody points it out, the guy may be the next target to be bullied. The air of anxiety covers in the class. Nothing can be done to survive. Even though you know everything, you have to pretend not to see for yourself. There are only perpetrators, victims and bystanders. This is the dark side and reality of the Republic of Korea. Thus, I was not happy.

The classmates, here, wear the same clothes and go to the same school and take classes altogether. But, there are invisible classes like a dominant class and a controlled class. Most people know this fact. They are just trying not to admit it.

The main character, Sori didn't just stand by a friend who is bullied. She carried out the right judgment on her standards. And as a result, Sori became a new target. The reality is more tragic. Because of some words, the target of bullying became Sori, and the previous target left this school. During summer vacation, Sori just decided to come back to the previous place she used to live.

  

She transferred to a new school. However it is difficult to get used to being normal due to the trauma. All around of her seem to put the bad mouths on her. Moreover, to make matters worse, bad memories were overlapped with intense stress. It shows how the memory of the previous school made her being shocked

 

After that, she found a letter on her desk by chance. The content of the letter is like this.

“Hello, welcome to our school. This letter is written to introduce this school to you. Firstly, this is a map of the main building, contained our class, secondly, name cards with faces of classmates.”Math teacher rarely snores..” “During a camp, our class president made a mixtape, containing the teacher's sleep talking.” “our literature teacher and a school nurse are twins. Both of them graduated from this school. A classmate said the school nurse is more strict than the literature teacher, but I think it is opposite.”

“P.S. if you wanna read more letters, you can try to find the second one.”

 

Well, it is a well-organised note, which is for a new guy for this school to get used to this atmosphere. I can tell It is such a secret note. By fiding this letter, the story begins. Sori easily got used to this school, and she was wondering who sent these letters. Then, she got the name, “Jung Hoyeon” who sent these letters. After that, she wanted to know more about him, and she knew “Lee Dongsoon” a friend of Hoyeon. Then she focused more on finding letters. Sori entered the pond, go around every corner of the school, and then accidentally found envelopes and letters hidden by another student, and it was the examination paper, which was leaked

, and the student who hid the examination paper asked Sori to exchange it for the letter. The student who put the paper did not have a good relationship with Dongsoon in general, and Dongsoon, who was anxiously looking for the letter from "Hoyeon," asks for the letter.

  

Because she was struggling to find the next letter, Sori felt depression, and she thought about her attitude and action by herself on the way back home.

 

‘Was it a problem to act something although I do not have such power to manage my situation?’  ‘Does everyone blame me?’ When she arrived, she found a letter on her desk. Sori opened the letter with doubt and found that a classmate, named ‘Kim Jimin’ sent it. She was being bullied at her previous school. And Jimin wrote it “Because you did it to me, I also did it to somebody else. Thank you.”

 

After that ‘Sori’ and ‘Dongsoon’ found all the letters and got a shocking fact.

The fact is ... ... I will not tell you. But, what I can only say is, you won’t regret if you start to see this webtoon.

 

During reading 10 episodes, I was immersed in this work with a great sense of immersion and difficulty in breathing, and the moment I took down all the scrolls in the final 10th episode, my whole body was thrilled from tip to tip. Literally, tears welled up. I felt like my body was out of shape in the aftermath of such a tsunami. I'd like to give a compliment. I want to express my gratitude to the writer for having this kind of work. It seems that the unique and beautiful atmosphere, amazing storytelling to warm my heart, proper pace of the story, and the sensibility of the writer among them were gently melted

. 

I appreciate the writer that I have, and I am excited to see new fantastic work coming up like ‘Your Letters’.
