Dogged by pain and misfortune from the very beginning, Shin-Ae decides she wants nothing to do with people nor anything to do with romance. Although content with her unsocial, boring, loveless existence, her lifestyle is challenged after she ruins an unsuspecting strangers' clothes.

This another series I enjoy from the bottom of my heart. The main character Shin-Ae is very relatable and funny. The story is interesting and fun. However, what gets me is the art style. The way the author draws facial expressions and the reactions of the characters is hilarious. You won’t be upset if you start this webtoon. It is currently on pause you could binge read the entire series.
