Nineteen, Twenty-One
A gorgeously illustrated webcomic that would put the best illustrators to shame, Nineteen, Twenty-One tells the sweet story of two people trying to find themselves as they face some of life's most difficult transitions.
Yun-lee, a girl comes back from coma to find her world completely changed. Meets mysterious young man, Dong-whi, who shares with her a common vision. Despite all the hardships that face them, the two decide to fly in the face of mediocrity and apathy to save a dwindling group of friends. Who also happen to be cats. Because to these two, felines are Serious Business.
Don't be put off by the tag that labels this work as a Romance -- there is something in this story for everyone.
This webcomic is written by "John", illustrated by "Jenna", and can be found at Naver , with an English translation currently being done by Easy Going Scans and hosted on Webtoon Live .
