HWAN VILLAGE
THE MAIN HANOK

The main hanok was the original home of Hwan Kwangho, Park Areum, and the first generation of Hwan siblings. Once Jaejoon and Youngae were married, they took over as the primary homeowners. There are multiple gardens and ponds surrounding the hanok, and there's a large, main path that leads to two smaller hanoks on either side. Pull image into new tab to make larger.

JAEJOON & YOUNGAE'S ROOM

The master suite has been Jaejoon and Youngae's bedroom since 1992, when they were married.

SEBIN & WONDAE'S ROOM

This room belonged to Sebin when he was a child. Currently, both Sebin and Wondae will be sharing it for the holidays.

This room belonged to both Youngjae and Jaehyun when they were children. Currently, it's only Jaehyun's room, but he will be sharing it with Youngjae once again for the holidays. Kira's boyfriend, Seungchan will also be sleeping here.

KIRA & SAEMNA'S ROOM

This room belonged to both Kira and Saemna when they were children. Youngjae sometimes stays in this room when he visits the village. Currently, both Kira and Saemna will be sharing it for the holidays.
THE RIGHT HANOK

Located on the right of the main hanok (when facing them), this was built in 1996 by Kwangho, Jaejoon, and Jaebeom. It's primary reason for being built was for Kwangho and Areum to give Jaejoon and his new family some privacy, as well as give Jihye, Jaebeom, and their families more room to stay when they visited. Pull image into new tab to make larger.

Chapter 11: I love that like, half of them immediately bonded over playing Genshin Impact xD hahaha And I was contabilizing how many gamers per branch of the family, and the half-siblings are the ones with more gamers between them lol
Also love how this ties in with tha last chapter, with Seol and Juda looking for Youngjae.
(Btw, with Sebin and Hanjae we have the two types of older brothers: the "don't-even-tell-me-I-don't want-to-know" and the "tell-me-absolutely-everything-it's-my-right-as-the-elder" LOL)

I'm really happy to see you back! I hope summer can also bring you rest!

Chapter 11: welcome back!!
the group chat's as chaotic as i thought it would be, it was so entertaining to read through. i didn't expect so many of the characters to be gamers lol

i also like how it also linked back to what juda and seol witnessed in the previous chapter. i can't wait to see how that will end up being formally addressed. absolutely excited for the next chapter <3

Chapter 11: Ahh, I’m so happy you're back I missed seeing you around ^^
I’m sorry you’ve had a rough time, my DM’s are always open if you ever want to talk. I hope summer brings some good things for you <3

I always love the usage of group chats in stories!

Chapter 11: Omg welcome back!

The way I laughed so hard at the shenanigans in this group chat! Charlotte wanting to leave immediately, you basically nailed her personality. The good thing is that I think these Hwan siblings and cousins will be able to bond over Genshin. On that note, I think it’ll be quite fun to see them co-op in Genshin (and the possible chaos it’ll bring)

Looking forward to what’s coming next!

Chapter 10: Been curious about this story for a while (mainly because one of the characters has Han Sohee as a FC I'm sorry I'm a simp) and so glad I subbed! Your writing got me hooked immediately and I can't wait to make my app for manslaughter

Chapter 10: omg wondae went off!! I love how you expressed their guilt too and trying to mask it with excuses. I am beyond satisfied with how that went down and I know it's just the beginning for those two so I'm looking forward to what else you have in store. but chulsoo??? I did not expect that? right at the family home is so risky too afnajg. and lastly happy new year even though its two weeks in!

Chapter 10: the confrontation!! the amount of gasps i probably made as wondae kept speaking was something else! i expected wondae to have fully blown out on his twin so, i was surprised when he didn't... i guess such a moment will be left for a later time. chuseok barely even started for the family and everything has already become so awkward.

the moment between juda and seol's so sweet especially after the drama that occurred with the moons' side. i adored how you were able to incorporate juda's dislike of the nutcracker. this chapter also made me realise how out of the half-siblings juda has, she probably would be most familiar nowadays with charlotte and christopher since they pretty much live in the same state! i also agree with how if their grandmother had still been alive, she would've not approved of chaerin or wondae's behaviour. the transition from drama to something light-hearted to more drama again was so smooth. i shuddered at the 'technically legal' comment, and wonder what chulsoo is doing with a man much older than him... i wonder if it's something youngjae's aware of, or it would be news completely unfamiliar to him once juda and seol shares such information with what they witnessed. things are getting more and more juicy, i love it <3

happy new year to you too! hope 2024 will be kind to us all <3

Chapter 10: And the first bomb was dropped!! Honestly I don't blame Wondae very much for his outburst. Even if he was in the wrong and went to jail for it, it must have to feel like your family abandoned you. So yeah. :') Making everyone feel guilty was probably some part of Wondae wanted? Because he for sure got that. I can only hope that facing that guilt is the start of a family reconciliation.

Agreeing with Charlotte and Juda that the family is ed up. It's just that Jaebeom's side of the family is ed up in an expected way, while the Moons had the facade of a perfect family, probably, so when thing get ugly, it looks like the fall is uglier. But everyone is human and falible! :p

Also, Chulsoo????? Right under the window???? The girls are way too polite, for going to ask about the situation from Youngjae xD If it was MY brother/cousin getting frisky under my window, I would have opened it and hollered for them to get a room xD But I guess that lack of familiarity make people less thick faced to embarrass family members (the Jaejoon's Hwan siblings probably are the only ones with no qualms about embarrassing a sibling lol)

Chapter 9: I finally caught up with the chapters, it's interesting to see that all of Jaejoon's older kids live far away from home. I wonder if that has to do with his parenting skills, especially since both Sebin and Saemna didn't come back. They're are all a year apart but the difference in treatment is crazy. But overall the family seems more tight knit than I thought, especially the half siblings. This is only the beginning and we got tears and a fight almost broke out. I can't wait for Wondae to make his grand entrance lol.
I was so excited to read this so thank you for not leaving us in the dust with this one. Also the way you write is so easy to follow, even with such a big cast. Looking forward to the next one.
