Homework of the Mind

I dont' know how to say this other than I cried a lot reading. I binged this in one seating (not too bad since there were only 80 chapters!). As I read, I kept telling the author how much I love them and thanked them for making this webtoon (in my mind, ofc). There's a strange deep melancholic undertone to this story. The characters all felt real. A lot of emotional depth. I just wished we could have explored their back stories a bit more. I want to to know ALL their stories. It's very much a character-driven piece. There are obvious plot holes and loose threads but since the focus was on the characters and the human condition, I can brush that aside. It's not easy to write a convincing and touching story about people, after all.
