It’s not often a manhwa makes me feel such a rollercoaster of emotions, from frustration and anger to hope and joy. Speaking of characters, the ensemble cast is incredibly well-written. Each character, no matter how minor, feels like they have a rich backstory and motivations. One character that really stuck with me, and I can't help but think about how they shaped the story, is the complex figure often referred to as 'the grandfather.'
