Manhwa Review: Very! Very! Sweet, Vol. 5 Paperback

I've finished "Very Very Sweet Vol. 5" by Ji-Sang Shin and Geo.

Heartbroken and mortified at San-Ne's discovery of her secret affections, Be-Ri launches headfirst into a relationship with Mu-Hyuk. She's still not overly fond of him, at least not in a romantic way, but she's willing to give it a try, if only to forget about San-Ne. But Tsuyoshi isn't pleased about the new arrangement. For one thing, Mu-Hyuk is so overprotective that Tsuyoshi hardly ever gets to hang out with Be-Ri at school. For another, much to his own surprise, Tsuyoshi is unhappy at seeing Be-Ri with another guy. True, they were only "fake dating" for the sake of his grandfather, but now the old man isn't the only one thinking they should give it another go.

My Review:

Be-Ri is extremely mortified that San-Ne knows of her love for him that she starts dating Mu-Hyuk.  She still doesn't have romantic feelings for him but willing to try to forget her feelings for San-Ne.  It's quite obvious she isn't very happy!

Tsuyoshi isn't very happy that Be-Ri is with another guy and especially one that is overprotective like Mu-Hyuk.

4/5

Manhwa Review: Very! Very! Sweet, Vol. 4 Paperback

I've finished "Very Very Sweet Vol. 4" by Ji-Sang Shin and Geo.

Tsuyoshi and Be-Ri's charade has Grandfather convinced, but it's just a bit too convincing for Erica and Mu-Hyuk. Forming a coalition of their own, the pair is determined to prevent Tsuyoshi and Be-Ri from becoming anything more than business partners. Meanwhile, Gyu-Ri and San-Ne are on the rocks as Gyu-Ri's unfaithfulness becomes increasingly apparent. Be-Ri watches their relationship crumble before her eyes, her heart filled with concern for the suffering San-Ne. It could be an opportunity to make her move, but as much as she cares for him, does she really want her true feelings out in the open at a time like this?

My Review:

Gyu-Ri and San-Ne relationship is on the rocks when it becomes quite obvious that she is being unfaithful which forces Be-Ri to finally break down and start crying.  I definitely could feel her pain and anguish (especially with an older sister like Gyu-Ri what a piece of work who treats her like a servant and also the way she also treats San-Ne).

We finally learn the truth about Tsuyoshi's birth and the unfortunate events of what happened.  It's a tragic tale because his grandfather drove his son away and took Tsuyoshi from Ito's older sister which resulted in her killing herself.

4/5
