Here's a rare treat for you all, the complete Color Trilogy by Dong Hwa Kim in High Quality. This manhwa series is a true hidden gem, no one's ever heard of it because it was the only manhwa translated by the graphic novel publisher First Second in 2009. But it's got gorgeous and unique artwork, and it's a very poetic and memorable coming of age story. Even if you don't particularly care for romance, I'd still recommend giving it a try. Scanned by me and edited by the amazing Kitakevo.
Read from Left to Right.
Summary of Color of Earth from Amazon: "A coming-of-age story set in rural Korea a few generations ago. Ehwa is a beautiful young woman who, over a series of vignettes, learns about her body and how men and women make babies. She suffers the pain of her first unrequited love for the boy monk Chung-Myung (who also suffers from his own forbidden love for her). She also finds herself attracted to Sunoo, a rich son of an orchard owner who studies in the city. While Ehwa discovers her own desires, her widowed mother finds love again with a traveling picture salesman. The story revolves around the close relationship the women share as Ehwa becomes her mother's main ally and confidante. The illustrator uses flowers in many of the vignettes to explain aspects of love or to represent his characters and their relationships. While the book begins when Ehwa is seven and only takes her into her early teen years, the nostalgic tone and slow pacing make the title more likely to appeal to older readers. The artwork is beautiful, particularly in Hwa's depiction of the landscape and the two main characters."
