Killing Stalking; dead doves and pretty boys

Discussion in 'Fan Town' started by rje, Jan 7, 2017.

    Title temporary until someone can think of one more clever.
    I decided to make a fan thread for Killing Stalking because I really like it and I wanted to discuss stuff and share cool fanworks and whatnot and spitefully enjoy the latest Problematic Thing so join me, won't you.

    Pls note this is about a horror manwha (Korean comic) that is filled with murder, stalking, abuse (physical and sexual), torture, gore and all kinds of fucked up shit! Proceed with caution.

    -----
    cool things:
    Link to the paid site for the comic; support the artist!

    Link to tumblr user sableaire explaining differences in translation and giving more insight into the dialogue in Korean

    Currently looking for that link to the paid site that was posted to put in OP for ppls.

    @jashindamnit
    omgg those are so pretty!
    This is a fun art piece I found last night, I thought all the books and stuff around the room was a fun tongue-in-cheek addition

    Okay well I'm only like 10 panels in but as of yet Yoonbum seems pretty sympathetic even if he is pretty awful with the stalking, I at the very least feel sympathy for him.

    Oh, oh christ, poor Yoonbum.

    Okay I am 200% uncomfortable with the tumblr fandom's stance that Yoonbum is hard to root for or had this coming, dude blatantly needs help and while stalking is bad, those are some fucking awful circumstances.

    I found an interesting post too about the differences in translation btwn the Korean and English that gives additional insight into some scenes, I'll put it up when I find it.

    I'm not necessarily rooting for anyone in this comic, but Yoonbum very much needs help, yes.

    The art and layout is fantastic!! I can def see why they won an award(s?) for it

    So like, Yoonbum seems to have gotten in legal trouble before due to his stalking, does that not come with a mental health evaluation? Because like, he clearly has a pattern of doing it.

    ....I have to be honest, I found the comic sort of....predictable and a bit boring thus far
    it's not horrible, but it's also not something I really love either
    but I'm gonna keep reading it because spite
