Teenage Love Awakens

The story focuses on Soo-ae, a young teenager who receives a jellypop, a phone that measures how much love each person is destined to receive. What do you do when you discover that your predetermined love quota is "Zero"?

Soo-ae has a boyfriend, Minwoo Kang, and a "sister" named Lime. The three often hang out together, but her boyfriend is inattentive. He frequently goes out without her and gives her only crumbs of his attention. Whenever he shows her a small gesture of kindness (like a strawberry milk carton), she forgives him and accepts everything, sacrificing her pride. She confides in her sister, who is her confidante and the only person she can talk to about her feelings.

Everyone around her sees how poorly her boyfriend treats her, but she doesn’t care. Her classmates mock the situation, except for one boy, EunHyeok Go, who behaves differently—what could that mean?

What do you do when you discover you've been betrayed by the people you care about the most?

Can Love Be Measured?

What can we say about love? No one experiences emotions the same way, and everyone perceives love differently.

This manhwa raises the question: Are we all born equal when it comes to the amount of love we're destined to receive? Can we increase this amount through our actions? What are the criteria that define these values?

Adolescence is a challenging time—it’s a period of budding love, first emotions, social relationships, and betrayals that shape the adults we become. Can the betrayals of those closest to us transform the people we're becoming?

Can the advice and information provided by a phone help and alter the amount of love we’re destined to receive and our actions?

A Typical Romance?

This manhwa belongs to the romance genre, similar to Marry My Husband and True Beauty. The artwork is more mature. Like in the series True Beauty, it tells the love story of a schoolgirl. In True Beauty, the question posed is how, with the help of a makeup tutorial, a change in appearance can turn a girl into the "goddess" of her school and win the "cute" boy she likes. How will he react when he discovers the truth?

Here, the question is how a phone can help understand romantic feelings and estimate how much love others feel for us. Every action can spark a reaction, influencing human relationships and the bonds that form.

This manhwa targets young adults who enjoy romantic stories and are figuring out their place in the cutthroat world of school relationships and how others perceive them.

This series is enjoyable to read. At first, you may wonder where the story is going, but soon you get swept up in the flow of relationships, and you start to question Soo-ae’s future, her relationship with her boyfriend, and her sister. And what does EunHyeok really feel? Will he manage to become part of the heroine’s life?
