I love that it starts as a man who serves people makgeolli in a sleepy middle-of-nowhere town but ends as the stifling of revolution. I loved that erratic swing in graph. And it has as beautiful sense of romance in that we as readers don't know a lot of background facts but it's as if you've carved a tiny piece of a universe out of your head and placed it before us. I didn't even care that the grammar was off in some places, it did nothing to disrupt the flow of the fic (so in case you were worried about it, 걱정하지마라~)

Additionally, I love that nothing is intense about JongYu's relationship. They aren't suddenly romancing each other and its not like some kind of "fatal attraction" like in hormonal fics (I hate those) Its simple, it runs its course the way it has to, naturally, in a very unforced manner. It doesn't take precedence over the fact that they live in a tough situation and people are watching them, possibly 24/7 (Im going to guess that being homosexuals is just fuel added to the fire in their case?) It doesn't run in the background, either, as if it's just a fact worth mentioning to the reader like, "hey, btw, they're together". You've achieved a lovely balance between both issues throughout the entire story.

Finally, and I've been waiting a long time to say this, your Minjung is to die for. She really is a goddess and its sad that nobody writes her but she could very well be the leader of this revolution and I would willingly follow her anywhere. Whoever you are, thank you so much for this amazing story. Please continue to write like this, for yourself and against the usual grain. You're brilliant.

Queen, may I kiss you for your wonderfully constructed comment? Critic? It made me smile again (well also frown because how can I not worry about the damn grammar how can I not worry when this is something I need to work on?)
Yet still, still thank you always thank you haha look at my reply but you know I appreciate it so so much, don't you?

Minjung is a goddess yes. Paha, revolution though...I need a mirror to roll eyes at my silly existence.
