Summary: An intro in Korean shoujo
Review: This was one of my first forays into Korean shoujo manhwa and I have to say that I'm very happy that I was introduced to it via INVU. I've had a chance to read up to the 3rd volume, and though I am just as big of a fan of cliffhangers as the next person, each of the three volumes literally had me on the edge of my seat. I'm still waiting on word for the release date for v4. It's common for most shoujo manga have a very soap-opera feel, and INVU is no different. What I enjoyed about this series isn't necessarily the original storyline, but rather, the way that the creator staggered several storylines of each of the characters, giving the readers small glimpses here and there of each of their lives, all the while keeping the continuity intact. From the sheer number of characters to the segues to the "coincidental" situations the characters find themselves in, I wouldn't be surprised if INVU is incarnated as a live-drama sometime in the future. In the world of INVU, everybody knows each other directly or indirectly through a friend, family member or other such degree. Would I recommend this title? Yes, most definitely. The characters are all very engaging and you cannot help but be drawn in to their stories and their dreams. The art is pretty, and I'm rather impressed with the fashion choices the artist Kim Kang Won creates for the characters. It's not as edgy as Paradise Kiss, but it's still good.
