Lovely Runner

Each character has a distinctive personality, and the plot is driven by each character's choices, making this manhwa relatable and dramatic. There are some, but not many, fantasy elements, mostly there to bring the main characters together and to show the theme that where there's a will, there's a way. If you're interested in reading about love that stays strong despite difficulties, this is a good comic for that.

The side and main characters are handsome, but not in a weird way, with some comedy and drama in the clothes the characters choose or wear coincidentally. The art works with the story and creates a storyline that is both visual and textual. Also, this comic avoids the issues of same face syndrome with the unique characteristics and personalities of the cast.

If I were to give a more specific rating, I'd give this comic 4.8 stars. Some of the fantasy elements are stereotypical, or go unexplained, but this is a very minor issue because the plot flows smoothly with real life elements like food, drinking, and dating as an adult.

Now, the idol elements--The MC isn't an obsessive fan and she has a refreshing personality. The idols themselves are like a cohesive friend group, without any entertainment related villains (yet). There aren't any sugar daddies or mommies as far as I can tell, and music is a big thing that shows character emotion and drives the plot. 

The plot also has a distinctive timeline. One detail that gives the sense of time passing is in the technology the characters use. Time is an important factor, especially early in the plot.

The romance isn't forced (although there are some quirky/comedic moments) like in some books or comics where they'll force amnesiacs to fall in love immediately.

This is a solid story. I can't wait to continue reading it.
