Webtoons

I read an article about Korean webtoons taking over the manga world. This is surprising as Japan has be the dominant player in manga. The webtoons are online versions of manga. They are always in color. And they are read vertically so as to make reading on a mobile phone or tablet much easier.

So I checked out a popular webtoon called True Beauty. The main character is a girl who things she is ugly. This leads to her not being popular at school. She learns to use makeup to maximize her look. All of a sudden, she gets friends and starts to gain attention with the boys.

I read through 39 episodes of True Beauty. The graphics were good. Story and character development were on point. Only problem is now I have to wait for new episodes that are only released once a week on Wednesdays.
