In the Bride of the Water God, we meet a TRAGIC woman named Soah, why is she so sad?

It's her wedding day.

Her husband?

The terrifyingly ugly, cruel, bad-tempered water god.

And so, dressed in her wedding day best; she is put on a boat and pushed out to sea only to be swallowed up by the water. She awakes in unknown foreign territory and the first person she sees is an old geezer who says he'll show her the way to the water god.

Children: YAY! The end!

No children, it's only the beginning

*Creepy horror movie sound effects*

The story was supposed to be a happy-ending-ed oneshot, that would have scored the most ratings the Manhwa could get. You see, the story does not have enough substance even for two chapters but the author has prolonged the ending by, as of now, over 100 chapters.

How? You may ask, considering I just said it didn’t have a plot worth two chapters.

The author uses the AWE-some skill of driving readers up the wall by using a never-ending cycle of sadness, betrayal and all things sinister and melancholic.
Seriously, the sun don’t shine wherever the writer is living.

All you can see and imagine is vacillation and tears. And over 50 chapters of crying, misunderstandings and generally getting nowhere except in a depressed stupor; it’s not really a very recommendable read, if you know what I mean…

The first chapter’s art was inspiring, beautiful, very similar to the art in the beginning of Goong (Manhwa) but then--

OH! But then…

*Goes on depressingly*

Continuing in the footsteps of Goong, it all goes wrong. WRONG!

Wrong!

WRONG!!

The art goes downhill so fast it all looks the same!
-By the way, that’s a pun [maniacal bad-pun laughter]

No proportion, no realism; the characters are privileged of having huge jelly eyes infesting their faces (the usual) with the added (now this is unusual even in bad stories) flying tears; I know, it sounds awesome.

Considering that we, as sane people, do not like being depressed; the story generally spreads it like it was love. I’d recommend you see a psychiatrist before I’d recommend reading this Manhwa.
