Killing Stalking... I was wondering why MAL hadn't added you to the database being this one of the most popular Manhwas at the time of its publication but well things that only MAL will know, first English is not my strong point, there will be mistakes if you don't come to me privately saying “You have mistakes here, here, there” insert image of genius meme .jpg, I'm human, I learn English alone by my own means obviously I'm going to make mistakes so don't come to fill your stupid messages with that, second there will be Spoilers, third in the conclusion there will be 2 points of view, as I saw 2 years ago, the moment of its peak (2017) until this year (2019) so let's start.

History 10/10

The story begins with Bum, a shy boy who falls in love with Sangwoo, a popular boy in all areas, social, work, etc... But this boy, to whom Bum has a strong attraction to him (and obsession by the way) hides something he would never have imagined... Serial killer. With that simple Sipnosis it can call your attention or not but you dive into this one and you won't be able to stop, it leaves you spicy with the following episode, when I started reading it I went for the chapter 31 or 32 and I read everything in 1 single night. We don't deny that it's a common story but it has that thing that not everyone has in which is to keep the reader glued. That's what every author wants with his creations, right?

Art 8/10

Something that I like more manwhas than mangas is that they have color and more pages, in the manga in a page they center many emotions and moments things that confuse us a lot, in the Manwha each emotion and moment has its own page, That explains why the manwhas have more than 100 pages, it can be read in the western way from left to right but something I don't like is the detail of the drawing, they are not very detailed, I explain myself, there were pages that at first sight you couldn't identify what it was, if it was an avocado, a teapot, etc. EYES! For God's sake! the author was very weak with the 3 damned hiatuses that god gave us during all this publication and even so you can see many times the drawing very weak and on the eyes sometimes she didn't draw them well, she had one drawn and the other half but most of the times she didn't draw it, but coming out of that horror, emphasize the sex scene and well one or another very detailed rape, when you saw "the passion" and murder scenes also detailed and raw but for the mere fact that you could not identify things and eyes I do not give his 10 with 8 is a lot.

Characters 10/10
Here I will talk about 3 things, About Bum, Sangwoo and the super toxic relationship of Bum and Sangwoo, I will only talk about the characteristics of the characters, their defects etc. Mrs. I want to focus very little on the relationship of these 2 guys.

Boom
As I said he is a shy boy, in love with Sangwoo because of his charms but something I didn't say was that bum was abused in the militia and by his uncle, sexually, physically, psychologically abused by this gentleman, that's why his shyness, his clumsiness because of the traumas generated by his life and also a dependence on Sangwoo. There's even a break because this is more to be discussed in the relationship with him.

Sangwoo
A very popular boy among the girls and with the boys (Example Bum) and that his life seems to be a wonder but no, it is not like that, he was also physically and psychologically abused by his father, since he beat him and his mother, that is to say, domestic violence which generates a trauma but this does not stay here, his mother, his mother also abused him not only psychologically but sexually. Up to here he left.

Now I'll talk about your toxic relationship
Bum generates a very horrible dependency on Sangwoo and vice versa. The moment Bum enters Sangwoo's house without his consent, she realizes that something strange is happening, goes down to the basement and sees a dead body, there at that moment Sangwoo hits him and holds him hostage, Bum tries to escape but doesn't have the courage to think that she "loves him" in short, Poor Bum suffers from Stockholm Syndrome, Sangwoo takes out all his frustration from the traumas of childhood on poor Bum until he rapes him, Sangwoo has sex with girls while Bum sees all that (Sangwoo is aware of this), gets him involved in murder, the moment Bum can be free from Sangwoo is stupid! He doesn't take advantage of it and becomes Sangwoo's accomplice. Sangwoo is a cunning person. In order to get out of the police, Sangwoo kisses Bum and says he's her partner and the fool continues this charade. “But what's wrong with Valentina?" Then this officer hits Sangwoo because he knows that he is involved in the murder of the girls and their parents (Yes, this boy killed his parents, well not his father, it was the mother, but he killed the mother, I hope you understood me) and then the poor officer is suspended just because the asshole Sangwoo says that he hit him because he is homophobic.

Sangwoo is a pest, his mother has caused him irreversible trauma, I don't say "Oh poor man". Everything he does to Bum s something unforgivable, he breaks her legs for her mere madness, she dresses him as a woman, so she can remember her mother, what madness, she rapes him! With a dildo until the poor man bleeds, she has sex with other people so Bum can see through her closet. Bum did not justify it with his mental problems, he has low self-esteem and the worst thing is that he has Stockholm syndrome, at the time they were talking about his end (I mean the death of the two of them, I don't shadow their "relationship") they made a pact that in summary would be "You die and I die" which happened absolutely, Sangwoo died and soon after Bum because of his madness and not accept that Sangwoo left this world died too, as they did in their deal

Enjoyment 10/10

I enjoyed every second, every minute of it (except for the 3 damn hiatuses of months of the author) this Manwha gave me a good time, when the author was in hiatus I read it again and I never got bored, so what I can say, outside the fanservide I enjoyed it quite a lot. For more enjoyment reading it from a cell phone in your room in the dark listening to your good music.

Overall 9/10

A Manwha that I would say perfectly retracts people with an unstable mentality, which have been repressed either by the traumas that have happened to the protagonists of this story, curiously the abuses suffered by our protagonists are the main in the world for a mental instability if not treated in time and what happens when these 2 people come together ... They bring nothing good. That's how I see it now.

The way I saw it in 2017.
A Romantic Manwha about 2 misunderstood people who do their best every day.

In general 2 different points of view (2017 I didn't make it so long because I got lazy xD) and last thing... For some users at what point is this said to be a romantic Manhwa? Where on Myanimlist does it say that? Not even the author herself says that.

Thanks for reading this super long review I hope you liked it, have a nice day.
