Story 9/10
High school protagonist Jin has been raised by a serial killer, who forces him to partake in gratuitous acts of violence. The implications of this are enormous, and as Jin struggles to find his identity, he falls in love and his world changes. His moral struggles are a prevalent theme in the webtoon, and reading an adolescent deal with serial killers, bullies, and murderers whilst growing up is a sight to behold. The number of plot twists and insane situations are what kept me interested, though as a complete story there leaves a lot to be desired.
Art 7/10
The artwork in this webtoon has a simple, clean style, but nothing special or amazing. Nonetheless, it does the job, and many panels do convey the horror of the events that unfold. However, a lot of it is comical and over-exaggerated.
Character 7/10
The characters in this story both make and break it. The author is certainly a master in developing characters and making the reader empathise with them, but sometimes it is hard to suspend disbelief for some of the events that unfold. This is to say that, in a real life scenario, it is entirely inaccurate and unfeasible for the events to occur in such a way - and as such, the characters' reactions. I would describe this webtoon as seinen content with shounen protagonists, a lot of which is carried by the shock value.
Overall 9/10
Regardless, this was an enjoyable binge-read and I do recommend it to those who enjoy murder thrillers/horror. It does not leave a lasting impact, but it does provide many heated and exciting moments which carry the story well.
