I'm a big fan of "shonen ai" and don't usually pay much mind to manga vs. manhwa puritainism (Japanese comics are better than Korean) - but... with this title, I have to say I can see their point.
Something must have been lost in translation, cuz this jumps around a lot, characters say weird things suddenly and scenes shift abruptly in the middle of a page. And the art is inconsistant (which can always make up for a bad story-imo).
This is from the same publisher that put out "Boy Princess" which is much better.
It's rated 16+ for "sexual content" - but it's kind of like "Fake" in that everything is mostly dream sequence and 90% "edited for tv" type shots. It's a "conflicted about attraction to boys" storyline - so there is barely any kissing, and nothing is resolved at the end. But I'm not bothering with volume 2. Bleck.
But, maybe it's just me.
