Having waited to read this for a while I knew it wouldn't disappoint and was nothing less than a can't put down.

The title leads you in, Beautiful Fascination Better Than Love, a question or a statement? Seduction More Beautiful Than Love, for teacher Miss Jung does she let herself be seduced by a student? Is it nothing more that fascination and as a teacher should she over step the student teacher boundary?
A twisting tale which pulls off being light with humour with the over looming dark plot of threads flying everywhere. I found myself coming up with theories and thinking I knew how it was ... all going to end every few pages or so.

Lee Hyeon-Sook has a way of being able to tell a fantastic story not only by words but can draw side glances and looks that need no words just as well as any real life person. With a few character changes in looks after the first volume, the art style is beautiful not breathtaking and detailed but each character is great looking even the usually ugly nerdy brother is beautiful.

A downfall I felt was a few things were left and a few characters could have been developed more. I get the feeling that the author wanted to take the story on a journey but for whatever company problems she was having ended it sooner rather than later. Nevertheless there is still a great story told.

I easily read all 15 chapters each chapter being about 25 pages in one night. Overall left some gasps and sighs and a desire to listen to haunting classical music.

"A bittersweet love with a bittersweet ending" would be the best description for this Manhwa.

The drawings are very beautiful and the story line, as well as the characters have even though of the cliché Teacher x Student, something new and mysterious. What makes this story most appealing is the sudden change in the plot, the characters always choose to do something you wouldn't have expected. Plus it's less about love between a Student and a teacher but it focuses on love itself.

All in all I recommend this Manhwa to read for everyone even though it leaves a bittersweet feeling ;-)

I grabbed this and after reading the reviews, I had high expectations. But these expectations were not met.

The story is cliche - which is not enough to give it a low score. Heck, I love me some cliched romance. But! For me, the story was unintelligble. I could not follow what was going on, why certain actions were being taken, and because the story was so hard to follow, the characters were (and I hate to say this) highly dislikable!

Is the art ok? yes. Did it have the potention to be interesting. Sure! Was it interesting? no. no. and no. To be honest, I ... only made it through two volumes. Given how nothing made sense, there didn't seem much point making it to the end.

Well, everyone with their own opinions but this is from far my favorite manga of all times. Yes, you can call me whatever you want in case you do not like it. I definitely liked the story that Lee Hyeon - Sook has written . I already reread the manhua like fifteen times.

Cannot say everyone will like it ,though. My friend told me she does not like the story. However, I do not think anything is missing from it because I came up with some theories before, until I could understand the message. ( Thought that Lee Hyeon-Sook did not really ... want people to understand what her emotions are when drawing a manhua, but left everyone to make their own- the first impression )

So, I would highly recommend it.

This is my first review so be patient with me.

Story 9 - I give this story a nine because it was simply enjoyable. I started it and finished it all in the same night non stop I didn't get up once it kept me reading. I would have given it a ten but the ending was very disappointing.

Art 10 - The art is manwha has never disappointed me, but there were so many scenes where my breath was stolen at the beauty of the art. I was in awe the whole time.

Character 8 - The characters were all really well drawn personalities fit their looks. ... The teacher was beautiful even her brother who is "nerdy" was beautiful. Character got an 8 because some of the characters could have had more depth of more closure before they disappeared from the story.

Enjoyment 9 - Like I said previously I couldn't stop reading it. The story of student and teacher has been done so many times, but somehow this one seemed different. I was very disappointing and let down with the ending which is why I couldn't give this a 10.

Overall - Due to the two eights and two nines overall I give this story a 9. The only thing I can really say I wished was different was the ending. Other than that I wouldn't change a thing!

I recommend reading this if you like student X teacher, trauma, drama or just plain romance.
