Many thanks to Yen Press for providing a review copy.

About the Mangaka

Not a lot of info available on Lee Eun, and what is available seems to be conflicting. According to Wikipedia Lee is a film director, though there is no mention of this in the brief biography available at the front of this volume.

Her other manhwa include: Monica, The Eye of the Dragon and The Rebellion of the 36°Cs

About the Mangaka

This time around I was able to find something out about them :)

JiSang Shin and Geo are actually a couple (as in they live together), and they collaborated on the project, with Geo doing the art, and Shin doing the story.

About the Manga

*sigh* what a depressing volume this was.

While it’s true that I wasn’t having high hopes for this volume, I was disappointed at how it played out

About the Creator

I’ve never heard of Jason Kruse before, and rather than copy/pasting the info that I’ve found, I think it’s better to direct you to his site. One thing of note is that World of Quest is going to be made a cartoon series, sadly I doubt we Brits will get to see it anytime soon  :(

About the Comic

About the Mangaka

It’s really frustrating from a reviewers perspective at just how little information there is available, in english, for Korean Manhwa-ga. 

If you have any information on Ha SiHyun , please drop me a message through the Contact Me page.

About the Manga

I was disappointed with this volume, as the main meat of the story was cut short.
