A work that will represent Yang Yung-Soon as an artist,

Which of the numerous cartoons and webtoons for the public will be awarded? This question is not only for the artists but also for many readers. Sometimes the judges who need to assess a large number of works are not free from this question. My answer as a Comics/Webtoon critic is it. Of many works, which one is exploring the universal origin of mankind. What works can receive universal empathy, and is the story going for it? I select works that raise this question and those that can answer. That's the main factor that the content of the story has been pursuing for a long time, and that is what the author wants to say through the work and is the subject. Also, the sense of the subject is the point of victory for long storytelling. Thus, , which pays attention to human universal life, will be a representative work in filmography in which Yang Yung-Soon grows as an author from a genius rookie.
