It's been a few weeks since I caught up with this manhwa but it is certainly very addictive, I also didn't know it had a MAL page so I'm going to add my thoughts of it here~~~

Story:
The story behind Lookism isn't fully articulated until the high school transfer but I feel that the approach of having a character that is obese being bullied on the lower end of the social spectrum also getting a chance to experience life on the upper echelon of the spectrum makes for an entertaining but educational narrative. The Story follows Danial Park, a bullied high school student living a miserable life serving a powerful bully which then forces him to transfer to another school where life as he knows it changes as he receives the ability to possess a physically superior, visually superior, height superior etc. body while also maintaining his original body. He learns to coexist with both bodies (while one body works and studies in the night at a convenient store, the other attends the newly transferred school) Daniel Park in his superior form supports other individuals who suffer similar to him as much as he can while also transforming the characters in his new school to help with his endeavor of minimizing bullying (or subconsciously so) Reading this series in webtoon form was 'dog god' tier since it was very easy to adapt to, character wise also. (I also enjoyed the JoJo References during the Family Gathering Arc where Daniel Park meets his cousins hehe...) 10/10 -

Art:
The art felt more on the less refined spectrum but the quality of the art is comparable to that of Solo Levelling. The shading, colors and even use of negative space made it easy to flow with the story; thus fuelling by addiction for webtoon style comics. The fighting scenes are my favorite by far and especially with Rohan's god dog facing off with Daniel Park's central crew teaming up together; all the art during that arc were masterpieces. 10/10 -

Character:
This webtoon has mastered the conditioning of character development, it manages the immediate character palette fairly nicely by constantly going back and using each character at least in every chapter and their quirky interaction. Similar to Jin Sung Lee and his 'gf' (forgot her name) when he ends up acting like an obedient dog to her when he intends to act dominant as an example to other characters needing relationship advice. Also, when Daniel Park's original body saves Ha Neul (can't remember her name) from the stalker fan, Ha Neul begins to favor him over his superior form. Overall amazing character development and there are a lot of promising characters. 9/10 -

Enjoyment:
easily 10/10, the author knows how to entertain their readers by not being too serious with content and even adding in other references besides JoJo's (I could only notice JoJo but there were many different random changes in art styles)
