But love doesn’t come easy as timing falls short for her and her newfound love. On top of that, two other men in her life add to the troubles within her heart.

“It Rains on Precious Days” softly depicts the complications of navigating love as adults.

Amid the Changing Seasons

“Amid the Changing Seasons” focuses on multiple characters and their love stories in an anthology-like narrative. From falling in love with a married man to keeping strong in a high school relationship, this webtoon explores the different sides of love as the daily lives of these ordinary people unknowingly intertwine.

Another great webtoon by creators RYO and YABOMI, but this one portrays the various types of love experienced by people from different backgrounds. Even though the storylines can get heavy, the creators keep it light with elegant prose and soft-colored illustrations without losing any realistic or relatable factors.

Who this is for:

• People who like the Studio Ghibli art style.
• Readers who want a realistic portrayal of romance and relationships

Misfortune targets Jisu a lot. Having lost her parents in an accident when she was only a child, she loses her only other family member when her grandmother dies. Left as an orphan, Hyesuk, a past student of Jisu’s grandmother, comes to her rescue by providing emotional and financial support. Feeling immense gratitude, Jisu does her best to return the favor, which includes getting along with their indifferent son, Hajin. However, pretty soon Jisu is faced with unexpected feelings she isn’t sure she should have.

“To My First Love” is a cute webtoon that just recently finished. There’s a fresh feeling of youth to the story as it centers on the ups and downs of an innocent first love that began between teenagers. It’s your conventional boy meets girl story, but one that will get you in your feels nonetheless.

A Heartfelt Andante

By Na Yoonhee

Genre: Drama

Episodes: 56, Ongoing

Da-ul was diagnosed with a heart disease when he was only 12 years old. After spending years in the hospital, his fate seemed grim with no donor. That was until the day the death of famous pianist Yuwon saves him. With a second chance at life, Da-ul vowed not to take the new heart for granted and to live his life to the fullest. But upon learning years later of a secret connected to Yuwon’s heart, a guilty Da-ul takes it upon himself to help Yeonjo, Yuwon’s grieving fiancé. But what will Da-ul do when his guilt turns into something else?

“A Heartfelt Andante” is a melancholic tale about life, love, loss, and those stuck between them. By the first episode, a sick and young Da-ul will immediately strike a chord. Creator Na Yoonhee is best known for their other drama webtoon “Whale Star: The Gyeongseong Mermaid,”  which became a tear-jerking sensation. So, I recommend getting some tissues ready for this one too. You’ll breeze right through this series without a daily pass.

Who this is for:

• People who enjoy K-Drama.
• People who want a therapeutic knife to the heart (metaphorically, of course.)
