Cats that are over ten years old are usually called 'old cats'.
However, cat owners, or rather, cat caretakers, use slightly different expressions.
The new word 'Myoreusin' is a combination of the character for cat (猫) and the character for elder.
Cartoonist Min Jeong-won, who brought Hong-jo, who was abandoned at the age of five and was looking for a new family, all the way to Daegu to find him, began recording his daily life with Hong-jo in the form of Instagram cartoons when Hong-jo turned ten.
I captured precious memories that would otherwise be lost if not recorded in a drawing.
The first result that contained everything about Hongjo, the 'scholar cat', was the author's first book, "Hongjo Diary", published in December 2017.

This cartoon, which contains in detail the subtle habits, expressions, and even bizarre behaviors of cats, has been consistently loved by cat owners.
The second story, which is a gift to readers who have been eagerly waiting for a sequel, is "Hongjo is a Mysterious God," which is being presented after five years.

The story of Hongjo, a sixteen-year-old girl who became a family member through adoption.

Living with a cat, whose lifespan is shorter than that of a human, means having to accept the inevitable separation that will come one day.
However, older cat owners who have a hard time accepting the breakup embark on the 'Cat College Sending Project'.
I hope my cat will live at least that long, considering that freshmen entering college are in their twenties.

Hongjo's age is now sixteen.
He is very healthy for his age, so he runs around the house at night, is still a huge chatterbox, and lives like a dog-cat who only looks at the author.
However, the signs of aging that sometimes appear cannot be hidden, so the writer's heart, watching them every day, becomes sad, and his desire to hold on to the passing time grows stronger.

So, as you read this book, you will deeply empathize with the joy and security the author felt while living with Hongjo, as well as the sadness and worry that would come when he imagines the moment of separation that could come at any time.
Although it is lightheartedly told in the form of a comic, the content is by no means light, and the reader is captivated by the story of life with the old cat, and is left waiting for the next story.

For example, in the episode "If You See My Thumbnail, You'll Cry" (page 283), the reason why only the right thumbnail is cut short while growing the fingernails long is revealed.
Because I have to give Hongjo medicine every day with these hands.
The author's monologue about how one day, when he doesn't have to give medicine, he will laugh while looking at the different lengths of his nails, but he will also cry a lot, touches the hearts of the readers.
Meanwhile, in the “Donggunyeong Incident” (page 84), the urgent situation in which Hongjo, whose health suddenly deteriorated due to constipation caused by aging, rushed to the hospital is vividly depicted.

However, just because it deals with life with an old cat doesn't mean it's full of only heavy stories.
Rather, the cute and cheerful stories that convey Hongjo's strong charm take up a greater portion.
Cats remain baby-like even as they age, but as they age, they gain a more mature charm and exude a complex charm. You can discover this multifaceted charm of cats in Hongjo's appearance in the cartoon.

Two volumes for the price of one, with 157 massive episodes.

This book contains 157 episodes, which is 2.3 times the number of episodes in "Hongjo Diary", and boasts a thick volume equivalent to two volumes of a regular comic book.
Born from a tuxedo cat father and a Siamese cat mother, Hongjo's chocolate-colored tuxedo coat vividly captures his special charm. This 18-page photo collection will provide a special joy of ownership to fans who love Hongjo.
Additionally, the author expanded the spin-off story "The Duke of Hongjo," which was greatly loved on Instagram for its parody of the basic structure of romance fantasy, into five complete episodes and included them at the end of the book.
There are also 10 pages of unpublished material that can only be read in the single volume.

A book of great buzz that generated over 23 million won in crowdfunding sales before publication.

This book was very well-received, achieving sales of over 23 million won through Tumblbug crowdfunding before its official release.
Additionally, author Kim Gyul-wool, who showed special affection for author Min Jeong-won's previous work, "Hongjo Diary," on YouTube's "Winter Bookstore," wrote a recommendation, vividly conveying Hongjo's loveliness.

Author Min Jeong-won not only documents her life with Hong-jo through comics, but also runs a YouTube channel called 'Myoreusin Hong-jo'.
I want to remember the living, moving Hongjo's appearance and voice for a long time, and I want more people to remember Hongjo.
If there are people who remember and support Hongjo as he lived, Hongjo will live forever in their memories.
That is why the author consistently draws cartoons and videos about Hongjo.
