I just happened to come across this manhwa and I was really surprised to see the whole thing was in color. I'm already comfortable with reading yaoi so the shounen ai genre didn't scare me away.

Both the story and the characters were nothing exceptional. Fortunately, they weren't utterly terrible either (most of them at least). So, I'm not gonna say anything about them beyond "they were bearable".

Let's talk about the terrible art:
In Korean manhwa, the artists often take real-life locations and re-draw simplified versions in their works. This author goes beyond that and uses real-life pictures ...

Preliminary (7/12 chp)
This manhwa is great. So far, the pictures are all colored and the art is pretty nice.

Seventeen year old Han Soo-bum is ready to jump off a building to end his life. Or, so thought. A mysterious man is on another building across from him, taking pictures of him just before he is going to jump. Han Soo-bum is annoyed by the pictures and decides to go over to the other building to stop the man from taking pictures of him. As he gets there, people are looking for the mysterious man, Lee Hyuk-soo. Lee Hyuk-soo takes Han Soo-bum as hostage and their journey(more so ...
