But when his closest friend is reunited with her mother and leaves the center, Mori learns for the first time the existence of a mother for every child, and decides to embark on a journey to find his own. But what sort of obstacles wait along the way?

"Home is not a place, its the people."

"On The Way to Meet Mom" is a short, deeply emotional manhwa that gently tugs at your heart with every page. It follows a young boy named Mori, who is in search of his mother.

Mori is just a bundle of joy and cuteness, that you would want to protect always. We embark on a journey with him where the narrative brings up questions about parenthood, how a child views parents and what parents are to them, and also how precious and joy-inducing (pardon my choice of words) a child is to them.

This is the most adorable thing ever. The artwork is gorgeous and very expressive. There are some times where there is minimal dialogue, but the artwork and facial expressions are even better than any dialogue.

This is for sure a “Protect Mori at All Costs!” kind of manhwa. This is a very fluff/feel good story that also has some good, realistic heart wrenching moments. Do not worry, the minimal drama is not forced just for the sake of drama.

Highly recommend if you like a feel good manhwa or a child care manhwa or if you just want a smile on your face.
