Spring Commemorative Cherry Blossom Edition of 'Mangled Bear' and 'Mangled Hamster'

“Always remember! You are the main character of your own life!”


"Mangled Comics," which was loved by many readers as soon as it was published, has returned with a new cover to welcome spring! "Mangled Comics," a webtoon created by "emoticon character master" Yurang, who began drawing with a relaxed attitude to reduce his fear of imperfection, has gained immense popularity, receiving overwhelming sympathy with comments such as "It's just like my story" and "I want to live like that too," and has amassed approximately 140,000 SNS followers and ranked #1 in Kakao emoticon downloads.

This Cherry Blossom Edition features the two main characters, as well as the charming supporting characters, a squirrel and a rabbit, under the fluttering cherry blossom trees.
How about enjoying the spring spirit with this book that makes you feel like you're going on a spring picnic with your friends?

“In spring, let’s be more exciting, cuter, and ruin ourselves to our heart’s content!”

Because of his crooked lines, the other bears tease him for looking "messy." However, he's a wonderful bear who knows how to shake off his gloomy moods with good friends, delicious food, and cute cats! "Messy Bear" and his friends, who know how to live their daily lives naturally and enjoyably, teach us how to be happy just the way we are.

The 'Mangled Bear' (aka Mangle Bear) who is big in body but has a soft heart and the 'Mangled Hamter' who is small but bold and has a quirky charm have opposite personalities as much as their physical differences, but they boast a perfect chemistry that makes them even more fun to be together.

The sight of these people going about their daily lives cheerfully, shouting, "So what if it's not perfect!" brings a little laughter and warm comfort to us who always live tensely in this bleak reality.
Let's say this to ourselves who live in fierce competition sometimes!

“What fun is there in being perfect?
“Sometimes life has to be messed up~”

Publisher's Review
“It’s crooked and messed up, but I like it the way it is!”

“It’s okay if it’s not perfect!”
These words were actually a cheer for myself.
I am the type of person who pursues perfection excessively.
At some point, the obsession with having everything be perfect was eating away at me.
"Mangled Comics" is a comic I started drawing to overcome my fear of not being fully prepared.
(Omitted) The reality is that you have to be perfect in every field to be recognized as capable.
I hope this will be a comic that people who are tired of such gazes can enjoy with a light smile.
_Wandering Up

A small but exciting everyday story and the fantastic chemistry of cute characters.

'Manglegom' and 'Manglehamter' are excellent at capturing the humorous codes of ordinary daily life.
Moments we often experience with family, friends, and neighbors, yet easily overlook, are depicted in this comic! Adults who hate going to work but immediately start speaking "company language" when they answer the phone; the K-Mom and K-Grandma episodes that make you exclaim, "Are all moms the same?"; and the friendships that become strengths just by being together. You'll find yourself saying, "Me too!" as you read.
The episodes that utilize the characteristics of animal characters such as a bear and a hamster are hilarious and fresh, and will make you burst out laughing.


The cuteness of Manggolgom and Manggolhamter, who say, "Get well soon," is also a must-see! Not only will existing fans of Manggolgom and readers who are encountering the two friends for the first time through a book become ardent fans.
This book contains a total of 84 carefully selected episodes, including previously unpublished full-length works.

“I wish I could laugh without thinking about anything and with a comfortable heart!”

The author said that he started uploading his "Mangled Comics" to social media with the light heart of "I hope people who read the comics can laugh without thinking."
Then one day, I received a message from a follower saying, 'When I'm having a hard time, looking at a broken cartoon makes my day happy.'
After that, I had a new goal: to draw cartoons that could bring small moments of laughter and comfort in a bleak reality, even if they didn't have a grand message.
The story of Manggolgom and Manggolhamter, drawn with crooked lines and looking somewhat awkward, conveys a small but easily forgotten message that we can be happy just the way we are, even if we are not perfect.
