A Thousand Cranes by Seokchan Jeong

[reviews_and_ramblings]

 

Craig has been thinking a lot about death lately. Working thirteen-hour shifts to pay off his father’s insurmountable debt, taking care of his little brother in between, exasperated and ready to collapse, Craig can’t help but wonder: would it be easier to end it all? It was just an ordinary day like this when Craig stumbled onto the scene of a bloody murder. Now Craig is on the run, pursued by a criminal organization’s most lethal member: Dean. In the hunt, however, the two soon find themselves chasing anything but death.

My Rate: 8 (tapas.io/series/athousandcranes/info)

Basically A Thousand Cranes has 1 big fault, it's in Black&White. But if you go over that fault, the graphic is quite nice, the love story is romantic, the dark side of the story is there, but it's not overwhelming the romance, and basically both Craig and Dean are perfect in their own persona. I like basically everything of this manhwa, not the least the fact it's not too long, sometime I think some manhwa with more than 100 episode, sometime even 200, are basically diluiting the story; here instead the pace is packed, and the story flows nicely, also their intimacy that even if it happens fast, it doesn't seem happening too soon.
