I used to be that person who saw anime as cartoons and K-drama as women things. K=drama always have a story line of love - A rich guy sees a poor girl and immediately fall in love with her at first sight. Its a good thing though, but it is too good to be true in real life. Welp, this is one of the reason why i don't watch K-drama.
A few weeks ago, I was convinced to watch just one episode of K-drama, and guess what? I totally fell in love with K=drama. I know its awkward cause' this is coming from a guy, but then, I actually love the drama. There is this thing about it that made me like it. I can't really explain what it is though.
This post is not about K-drama's but I wanted to touch a bit about it. This post is an entry for Hive Korean contest. there are many topics we could write on, so, i decided to touch a little about K-drama. However, this post will focus on my favorite Webtoon. You can join the contest here.
Just like how i had a different perspective of K-drama, I use to think that Anime is a cartoon for children but i was totally wrong. My perspective changed when i watched Naruto. its not my favorite though.
With time, I became very addicted to webtoons and anime to the extent that i can hardly focus on another thing when i'm watching an anime. I have watched quite a lot of animes out there, ranging from romance, sports and action, the list knows no bound.
Over time, one anime that became my favorite is solo leveling. I started this solo leveling by reading the Manhua. I read every episode of it. I was even waiting for new episodes to come out so that i will read. Reading it was like watching an anime. It had this really good effect that left a long lasting sweet impression that makes you want to read it always.
Since 2019, i think or so, I began to hope for an anime. I thought there will be no more episodes, but then, my heart broke when i heard that Solo leveling author passed away. It was really sad. Even before solo leveling had an anime, it was already my favorite.
Welp, i became happy again when i started seeing more manhua episodes. What filled my heart with lots of joy was when i saw an announcement for solo leveling anime. I was filled with anticipation. I began to have expectations. I knew the anime will be a killer, and truthfully, it was. The only issue I had was Jinwoo's fight with Beru. It was really good, but I think the animation was not as good as the manhua.
My favorite charater in solo leveling is Sung Jinwoo. I love how the anime started. He started from being a week hunter that found it difficult to handle a goblin and reached the level where even National hunters depended on him for protection. He was Korean's top hunter. That was really impressive.
What makes solo leveling unique is that, unlike isekai anime where the MC gets over powered, Jinwoo started from scratch. He tasted death, pain, suffering, insults and many other negativity but he refused to become a villain. Imagine if Jinwoo was a villain in Solo leveling. I wonder who would take him out.
I could go on and on about what i love in solo leveling, but i guess it will be boring for people that don't watch K-webtoons. I guess i will stop the post here.
Thank you for reading.
