Nobody is exaggerating when they call this story incredible. Each of the main characters has "no home", which ranges from houselessness, to being stuck in an abusive family, to being an orphan. No Home is about them trying to make something out of what they have (this haunted dorm a mile from their boarding school) but watch out! It's not all sibling-rivalries and slice-of-life tension here. There is genuine bad blood between the two main characters, and they bring out the worst in each other. There's a lot of violence in this.
That said, this is a beautiful and funny work that doesn't go ham on the trauma button for drama but instead thoughtfully explores the consequences of abuse, isolation, and very poor communication. Everyone is frustrating and it's beautiful. I'm obsessed with every character and the way they own their stories, and especially how they don't stick by their resolutions -- sometimes they don't even try (I'm looking at you, Eunyung). It's heartbreaking and funny and so rewarding to watch them go again and again. My favourites are Haejoon and Eunyung; I really like that it takes them the entire story to learn how to talk to each other. Can you trust that the guy who keeps lying is trying to make amends this time? Ok, what about this time? Oh, this time he really did mean it, and you doubted him, and now he's set fire to the building.
The art is perfect -- it's cute and dynamic, and everyone looks really distinct. I love watching the chapter covers change to tell their own story. I loooooved Eunyung's stupid face.
No Home is hilarious and heartwrenching. It's a perfectly crafted story with a lot of respect for all of its characters, but also takes a tongue-in-cheek, "people are stupid and that's funny" approach. Highly recommend everyone reads this!
