Goodreads: Bride of the Water God Volume 2
Habaek, the mysterious Water God, is cursed to live his days in the form of a little boy-while he turns back to his true adult self at night. His new human bride, Soah, thinks that she's been married to a child and has no idea that the attractive "Mui" is actually the adult Habaek. Surrounded by a cast of colorful elemental gods and their servants, Soah is tempted by flirtations from both "Mui" and the rascal Huye. When Tae-eul-jin-in spills Habaek's surprising secret, Soah audaciously plots to uncover the truth for herself. She has to be careful, though, so she doesn't anger the moody gods-including her powerful, new husband!
Review:
The story panel isn't as bad as the first volume, but it's still a bit hard to follow. The story itself is still stuck in the "gimmick" phase, where I feel like nothing truly original is coming out. Just stuff you could find in any other shoujo story.
Now this is the point where I'm assuming everyone has at least read the first volume! So the water god has two forms a child and a man. Yeah, that's not really my cup of tea. Especially since there's the potential for Soah to not realize this for many-many-many volumes. Thankfully it looks like that won't be the case, so if that was an issue it's coming to an end. (Edit yeah, it took her a while. Mostly due to denial.)
The story is progressing and I think it could really turn into a beautiful romance. The love triangle seems really pointless right now. The hidden past behind the water god's first wife seems like an interesting backstory. So it looks like I'm plowing on ahead!
Sexual Content: Nothing note worthy.
2/5- Average/disappointing, library check-out
