The Moon that Rises in the Day

A very underrated and heartbreaking manhwa that never ceases to make me cry whenever I reread it. With supernatural and historical notes, the story keeps you on edge and leaves you wanting more at the end of each chapter. I remember waiting for YEARS until the entire translation was done. With that said, it's a story with an ending that's not for everyone; although, I absolutely loved it (this is coming from someone who can't stand open-ended stories OR sad endings haha). I would love for everyone who picks this manhwa up to love it as much as I do, but it's a little realistic in how it shows that not all relationships in your life are healthy or meant to stay forever. (Also, the art is super gorgeous and conveys people's emotions SO WELL!) Finally, it's a story that leaves us all on a hopeful note that things can get better and that life is beautiful. I wish I could go back and read this for the first time.

It's kinda hard to evaluate this work. However, I dropped it...so it does say something.  The story is based on reincarnation and karma. Our female lead lives in the 21st century and enjoys her life yada yada yada. Her happy life gets a 180 when a neighbor kid dies and his body is possessed by a ghost. Who is this ghost? Her karma. It was interesting at first, I wanted to know how it would unfold but at some point, I stopped. Maybe because it is so draggy. Maybe because it's a tragedy. My romantic self needed a happy ending.   However, if you want to see a modern girl dig into her 'past' self and if you like to watch a poor soul dullingly ache until it vanishes into thin air...welcome.
