December 4, 2009Welcome
to the club.
November 6, 2009We finally have member art up in the gallery. And for some chatty stuff, I had a discovery about manhwa. Manhwa colors tend to be bright and colorful compared to manga. Also the pupils and highlights of the eye tend to be really small and try to reflect a real-life eye. I also find more with looser eyes and rounder cheeked SD figures. (Komeangi in Korean).
Maybe in the future I'll post little cultural essays since all of the other Korean clubs seem to be dead and I'm pretty sure in 10 years or so manhwa will have a firm grasp on the American market.

to the club. Yay!
August 25, 2009
and
have joined the club. No club art yet... I think this club needs some tutorials on manhwa. Uhh... I guess Me or another person will have to volunteer.
August 24, 2009Before I could even add myself as a member,
joined the club.
I hope to get more people roped in.
I am your uhh... president, maybe Seonbae ~
KinnoHitsuji. I'm in my late 20's so most of you can call me 언니 (Eonni--For the girls) or 누나 (Noona--for the guys). Playing around. Anyway, I guess a bit of an intro is needed to get the state of affairs going.
1. I'm Korean. I was born in Korea. Jeolla province, in fact (Though I speak Kyeongsamnamdo mal... sometimes) And yes, I can speak perfect English. (I'm Korean American. Explaining my background beyond that is like a Korean melodrama--you don't want to see it.
)
2. I'm a fan of Korean dramas, speak a bit of Korean (not very fluent), have my hands into subbing projects on viikii once in a while, and have a manhwa collection. But I'm poor and Korea town is sooo far. I have most of Goong though. ^_^ (Yul is evil!!! So evil!! Especially in the last volume I have.. 20?)
3. I'm a fan of manga too. This isn't playing favorites! I'm no hater, I just want to give one of the art forms of my country some love.
4. I might post random Korean and Korean lessons.
(You can also add those to the club collection if you'd like too.)
Enough about me, let's give lots of love to manhwa. Manhwa, unlike what many people think is a distinct art form that has its own conventions. From the color use, tho the paneling, to the screen tone use, the way lines are treated, to story lines, to the way its read, to the very culture it comes from--it is its own very unique media capable of a different kind of expression from manga. And like all media it has its fabulous and horrible sides, but I hope that we, as a club, can appreciate the beauty of this art form and love it together.

KinnoHitsuji (If she lags with updates you can go over there, call her esseki-ya and beat her with a stick. Not recommended for people in Korea against Koreans...)
Began: Monday, August 24, 2009 at about 10:20pm Eastern US time due to manhwa club shortage. (i.e. there is none)

[link] is where you can buy it. You probably can't find it because it was liscensed.
You can find out about the manhwaga here: [link]
I hope that helped.
Also note that we welcome fans of manhwa to join as well. Not just people who draw it.

You guys ought to do it, too... >o>

I'm riding the Korean Wave, baby!

Get off my blade.
But that should be a good start. You can see a lot of manhwa influence on Lesser Arcana's work--soft colors and earth tones matched with bright saturated colors. She'd probably be better at tutorials, etc on manhwa than I would 'cause she could draw the pretty pictures.
But I will accept tutorials, Korean culture lessons, etc on manhwa v. manga, etc as long as it doesn't break DA rules about copyright. (fan art examples of manhwa and manga will work... comparing covers, etc with links.) There are tons of differences, just it's not an instant gut reaction for many artists to pick up (Unless you had some jargon training.

Hah, jargon... I guess it would help somewhat.
Yeah, I looked through her work. So, I do kind of see the difference between manga and manhwa... XD;; I think I should try and draw something like it first to really get it.
Well, that's quite alright. XP This manhwa ordeal will probably catch on sooner or later. For now, I can't join this place since I don't even have any manhwa art. X o x;; Grr... I may come back later if you're still here.

I'm guessing another 10 years or when the Manhwa-yeonghwa finally takes off.
