Features: Bestselling 1 million copies in Korea! Immersive warmth – youthful charm!!! Like the wind, like the clouds, like open wings. Drunkenly lost in the gentle embrace of colorful characters and lines, and the refreshing youth that washes over you. Dugua's comics don't feature glossy, stylish hairdos, swaying beautiful accessories, or even the scent of high-end perfume. Yet, she embodies the charming youth of her twenties, harbors longing for those she passes by, and deeply cherishes her family. That's why Dugua's comics are called "authentic." Dugua's comics capture the ordinary moments missed in life, like a gentle rain nourishing a dry heart. Though fleeting, they leave a lasting impression. The work seems to express the author's reflections on life during her growth process—neither overly naive nor overly seasoned, perfectly aligning with her age and accurately conveying the thoughts of that generation. It's the kind of thing only shared over drinks with the neighborhood big brother, the past I unknowingly missed, the stories only the big brother would entrust to me. Amidst the wave of humorous and lighthearted cartoons, there are comics like Dugua's that let us pause and reflect on life. That's Dugua Comics. Though it lacks sharp, punchy dialogue, it clearly implies something, allowing us to resonate with the author even from within the " " (quote marks).
