1983 Past Life Manga King

I don’t know what it’s like in these days, but as long as you don’t act directly on me, it doesn’t really matter.

However, looking at the faces of the people around him, you can tell how he is treated here.

Manga artist Jeon Sang-gil is the person who scouted him, so I don’t know what he’s like, but most of them are looking at him with disgust.

But even in such an atmosphere, Daebong Lee didn’t seem to care much.

“I was surprised to read the flat-footed striker. It was so much fun because the emotion description and scene composition were so detailed, and the lines were intuitive. It has been studied.”

“Daebong is…, okay, man, stare at me. James is a huge fan of you guys. To be honest, the decisive factor in bringing this friend to this studio was the ‘flat-footed striker’.”

“Oh, I see.”

Park Sang-sik answered with a face that he was impressed.

Anyway, the reason he came here means that he didn’t just come because the story writer’s place was empty.

“Let’s be friends in the future. Us.”

James stretches out his hand and says.

That hand… or should I hold it?

unexpected opportunity (2)

Park Sang-sik and I were busy creating new stories for Kang Yong-cheol’s new comic strip ‘Orion’s Leopard’ and ‘Flat-footed Striker’.

In particular, in the case of a flat-footed striker, unlike Orion’s leopard, it took a lot of time to work because it had to create more than ten basic stories at once.

Of course, it was only me who came up with it in my head and talked about it as a story by comparing it to other works, but for Park Sang-sik, who had to write it down well and create a continuity again, it was of course time-consuming and difficult.

“Take some rest. It will hurt you.”

“OK. to this extent. And it’s so much fun that it’s hard to stop.”

“Are you perverted? Think about your body and work.”

“You have to roll hard when you are young. You won’t be able to do this when you’re old.”

At Park Sang-sik’s words, I put on an absurd expression on my face, and then I thought I could hear the door open outside.

“brother! brother!”

This is Kyunghee

“Ouch loud!”

“I passed. High school entrance exam.”

At that, I jumped up from the floor.

“Oh, right?”

I said it wouldn’t be that difficult, but I was still worried.

Her mother even went to a nearby temple to pray to her Buddha.

Kyung Hee clasps her arms and giggles.

“Ahaha, how are you?”

“Good job.”

“Did you do well?”

Still, it seems that he is proud of himself, so he raises his head up and shows perplexity.

Park Sang-sik, who was working on the story next to him, also applauded and congratulated him.

“congratulations.”

“Thanks.”

“By the way, what about Seon-hee?”

“I just went back to the attic after confirming my acceptance. It seems like you’re only drawing cartoons every day these days.”

On a happy day, I might as well give you some nice tea, but it’s not the Ice Queen Elsa, I want to know why she doesn’t express her emotions like this.

Immediately I went upstairs to the house.

“Why?”

Kyunghee followed me and asked.

“It’s such a good day, but I don’t have to go out and celebrate.”

“Oh really? Where are you?”

“where should we go?”

“hamburger! hamburger!”

“Hey, what kind of hamburger is that? You have to eat properly.”

“hamburger! hamburger!”

It’s not like there’s a ghost who couldn’t eat a burger and died.

Haha, for Kyung Hee, it’s a precious food that can’t be eaten often, so it’s not that I don’t understand.

When I went to a hamburger shop before, I was also surprised that there were more people who said that hamburgers are good for the body than I thought.

Anyway, when you cry out for a hamburger like that, why do you even say that we should eat something else?

“Yeah, I got it.”

She nodded her head with an expression that she couldn’t, and Kyunghee shouted with her arms flashing.

“Long live Korean independence!”

“Hey, don’t overdo it! And suddenly what independence.”

“We were born on this land with the historical mission of national revitalization. Bringing back the shining spirits of our ancestors to this day…”

“What, what? what is that?”

“Oh sorry. even I did not know······. Hehe.”

Kyunghee scratched the back of her head and smiled awkwardly.

By the way, what did Kyunghee just say? What kind of magic spell is it?

He tilts his head and enters the room.

“Hey, Seon-hee. It’s my brother…”

As soon as Kyung-hee opens the attic door and shouts, Seon-hee comes down immediately.

How is the bone marrow?(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

“Hey, it makes me feel a little better on a good day like this. It’s not even a hikikomori, so why are you stuck in a dark place?”

I tilt my head at my words.

“Hikikomori?”

“Ah, what the hell are you just a bum in the corner of the room?”

While I was explaining that, Seon-hee pretended to have something in front of me.

“uh? What is this?”

“Look.”

“Is this… a manga manuscript?”

It was a manga manuscript the size of 8 knuckles.

It seems to be the manuscript paper that I got from Kang Yong-cheol when he helped him in the past.

“I did it for five days.”

“5 days?”

Looking at the cover, there is something unusual about it.

The title says ‘Skyscraper on the Moon’ quite nicely, probably because he designed the letters himself.

It’s a cartoon with no dialogue, but the quality of the pictures is quite high.

Perhaps because of the influence of Akira and Dongmong for a few days, the details of the drawings are not like the Korean cartoons of that time.

The detailed depiction of the moon’s surface and the depiction of mega-buildings are amazing.

If you look at the details of the painting calmly, it is not enviable of the Japanese cartoons of my time. However, the directing part smells like an amateur, probably because there are few cartoons that I have seen and experienced.

In fact, it’s only natural considering that there are very few cartoons out there that will satisfy even my eyes.

A 12-page cartoon with no dialogue at all.

The appearances of the characters appearing are good, but there is no dialogue, and the description is cross-sectional, so there is a sense of ambiguity. Still, if you add the young age of 17 and the fact that he is a beginner, it is clear that he is a really young guy.

“What do you think?”

“············· It is amazing because it is more amazing than I thought.”

However, at my words, Seonhee’s eyebrows twitch slightly.

“Why?”

“It feels good.”

“Then do it properly. It’s not even looking for a hidden smile.”

“·················ogue.”

As I look at Seon-hee’s manuscript, my whole body trembles without realizing it.

He’s a real born comic genius.

Why was such a child born in such an era?

If you have this kind of ability, it will work well in Japan. Currently, Japan is experiencing a boom in comics, and the magazine serialized comics market is growing tremendously.

If you study just a little more with Seon-hee’s sense, it will be enough if you just look at the pictures.

If I help out with the story part and Park Sang-sik, I might pass the newcomer contest hosted by a Japanese magazine.

However, winning the contest is nothing more than passing the first gate of a cartoonist.

After that, they start preparing for the serialization, and the editors in charge help and care for it. However, even if the editor in charge decides that it is okay, if it does not pass through the editorial board meeting, it must be revised or overturned and started over.

The problem is that no one knows how long this process will take.

Thanks to this, the number of cartoonists who only get elected in the rookie contest and disappear is bound to be huge.

But the bigger problem is that this is a process that must be overcome if you are a Japanese, not a Korean.

I don’t know how much bigger gates a Korean must go through to become a Japanese writer at this time.

Of course, if she shows an overwhelming manga, the road will somehow open up, but Seon-hee’s current skills aren’t that great.

If it was 2018, the penalty for Korea would be slightly reduced, so it might be a little better environment, but anyway, it’s 1984.

Ha, the more I think about it, the more my head hurts.

Fortunately, I do speak a little Japanese.

It is because I learned Japanese as an added bonus thanks to being obsessed with Japanese comics since I was young.

However, it’s also true that you don’t know how helpful it will be at this moment.

In fact, for a while, I was also doing some research to go to Japan. Surprisingly, however, it is quite difficult for overseas travel because travel oil painting is not yet in the proper era.

To put it in one line, for those over 50, the tourist deposit is 2 million won.

Even if it’s 2 million won, if you can afford it, 50 years old…

After all, it seems difficult to go abroad at the moment.

I don’t remember the details, but it was said that it became a travel oil painting in the 80s, so I don’t know how many years it will be, but I think we will have no choice but to wait until then.

Maybe there is no age limit or anything like that?

Just thinking about it makes me sigh.

“Whew.”

Kyung-hee, who came up to the attic without knowing why I was sighing, tilted her head and asked.

“Why are you sighing?”

“Nothing.”

“When are you going for the hamburger?”

“Have you been thinking about that all the time?”

“Huh.”

He smiles bashfully and nods his head vigorously.

Can this guy grab one?

Nyaaan.

On the other side of Seon-hee, Baek Seol-gi sticks out his head and weeps.

“uh? Was this guy there too?”

“He wants a hamburger too.”

“What don’t you want to eat? It’s a pig in a cat’s clothing.”

At my words, Seolgi reveals his teeth.

Does this child understand me?

***

click. click.

I have already taken four films of the Gwanghwamun area.

I arrived in Seoul yesterday and have already taken over 20 photos, so I think this should be enough.

Now what needs to be done is almost finished.

The man puts the camera in his bag and pulls the zipper of the jumper he is wearing up to his chin.

“Oh, it’s much colder than Tokyo.”

The language that came out of the man’s mouth was Japanese.

This is the first time he has visited Seoul, Korea.

He is Japanese and his name is Jiro Akagi, and he is an employee of ‘Weekly Shonen Tobu’, a weekly boys’ manga magazine of Miraikan, a medium-sized manga publisher.

He is a young editor who has only been in the company for a little over two years, and has only just removed the label of being a freshman.

He recently became a manga artist for the popular writer Shotaro Takeda.

Tobu, a boy magazine, is full of gags and cheerfulness. Thanks to this, most of the comics serialized are rather light.

However, unlike other manga, Jiro takes on the role of Takeda Shotaro, a manga artist who mainly draws action manga for youth.

This new work is also a cartoon with a realistic background and thrilling action, and the title is ‘Superbike’, the story of outlaws on the road.

However, at the request of a cartoonist teacher that he needs a background in Seoul, Korea, which will appear in a future episode, he came to take a background picture himself.

This is for the scene where the main character riding a superbike races down the highway in downtown Seoul, but it is actually a cartoonish fantasy added to it. However, since he is a cartoonist who pursues reality as much as his drawings, he must always do his best to research materials.

Of course, as an editor in charge, my job is to help cartoonists focus on their work as much as possible, so this is natural. Of course, that was the publisher’s position, and frankly, he was just tired and troubled with everything.

The decisive reason he had no choice but to come to Korea was simply that he could speak Korean. In fact, his mother was Korean, and that’s why he only spoke Korean. To be honest, he wasn’t particularly interested in Korea, but somehow he came to Korea like this.

Still, it was true that Korea had definitely improved a lot from what his mother always told him. Occasionally, if it is the 1988 Olympics, which will be held four years later, the Olympic rings or a tiger, the mascot, can also be seen.

Although it still lags far behind Japan, it was interesting that the city was larger than expected.

“I am hungry.”

By the way, lunch time had passed.

Even if you look around the area, you can’t find a restaurant that stands out in particular.

Even on a chilly day, Japanese ramen is tempting, but it seems difficult to find such a place in Korea.

In the end, I found a fast food and hamburger shop after wandering around.

Anyway, I wanted to know where it was, so I hurried to the store.

When I opened the door and went inside, there were more people than I expected.

The chairs are densely laid out, and people are buzzing there.

It seems difficult to sit and eat.

It seems that I have no choice but to stand around and fill my meals.

And as he went inside to order, something caught his eye.
