Publisher's Review
“I love the people of this land, every blade of grass, every handful of dirt.
So, how could I not love Miss Sua?”
* 2020 Today's Cartoon Selection
* Bestseller in the webtoon category immediately after publication
* Naver Webtoon Rating: 9.9! A top-rated romance genre work.
* Limited first edition cover poster, author's handwritten quote, and autographed print included
Ui-hyeon and Hae-su, who failed in the Gunsan Uprising, meet again in Gyeongseong with stories they cannot tell each other.
They join the people who were protecting Whale Star, the Gyeongseong branch of the independence movement group, and seek another opportunity.
As if nothing had happened, they reorganize the suicide squad and wait for orders, when Su-ah, the main character of the story, appears before them.
Having come to Gyeongseong without a voice, a place to go, or a girl, she suffers from wounds that she cannot wash away or confess.
Amidst the members' solemnity, filled with guilt for having committed an unforgivable mistake and regret for not being able to protect them, Su-ah and Ui-hyeon silently ask each other about their well-being, which they had not been able to share for a while.
* Rave comments from readers of the webtoon [Whale Star]
This is the first time I've felt this way... Author, what the heck are you... _hyun****
I live to offer cookies to [Whale Star] on Thursday nights... ㅠㅠ _ilov****
The author really deserves the Nobel Webtoon Award.

It's not a webtoon, it's a work of art.
Sorry for watching it for free, author! ㅠㅠ _lch0****
Each and every cut feels like a scene from a movie… _ruan****
Ranked at the top of the romance genre in Naver Webtoon, [Whale Star] is receiving enthusiastic support from subscribers who are constantly recommending and rating high.
It received rave reviews such as, “A romantic period drama that is not obvious,” “Beautiful drawings that make you want to get wrist insurance,” and “Strong story development with a compelling plot,” making subscribers anticipate a drama adaptation and publication as a book.
Plum [The Little Mermaid] cleverly hid small elements from the original work, giving readers the fun of comparing and finding them for themselves.
Additionally, the author has masterfully assembled the characters' personalities and relationships so that the dark Joseon period during the Japanese colonial period and the fantasy fairy tales of Europe do not seem too far apart.
By avoiding the stereotypical character settings of completely incomprehensible villains and unconditionally obedient people, the immersion was increased, and the three-dimensional character descriptions of the characters that change depending on the environment allowed people to naturally empathize with the flow of the play.
There are also many reviews that say they felt the pleasure of a proactive female narrative with courageous lines and actions.
Above all, considering that this is a work that stands out for its story development and perfection of illustrations, the production of the single volume was carried out with great care, starting from the storyboard, to maximize the pleasure of turning the pages rather than scrolling.
Especially tailored to readers of the webtoon [Whale Star], it includes unreleased episodes that will excite subscribers who fully understand the characters.
