Idol Shopping by Hwang Mi Ri

Idol Shopping, what can I say except that I wouldn't be listing it here I didn't like or loved it. I actually stayed up till 6:00am reading this. How sad is that?
My Review (warning might contain spoilers)
this mangwa is a gender bender, it's about a girl who dress as her twin brother in order to find out why he attempted to commit suicide. She discovers that her brother was turned in to the wang-ta of the school (the target for all the school to bully). Not only does she have to deal with the bulling but she also has to deal with two guys she fought while being "S" the caretaker of the bullies. This mangwah was funny and cute however, I just hated that the plot of the story was so obvious, yet no one observed or concluded the write summary.
I would give this manga a good 3 1/2 stars...




Summary:

'S' is a known as a bully caretaker, who avenges her bullied clients -- for a price, of course.

However, in reality, 'S' is a nerd named Kang Song Ih, with a twin brother named Kang Ah Eul, whom she loves above anything. Ah Eul attends Chungha High School, a famous and expensive school, but over winter break, he attempts to commit suicide. Song Ih, determined to understand why her brother tried to kill himself, attends Chungha High School, pretending to be Ah Eul -- uncovering the reasons why Ah Eul was driven to suicide, including one mysteriously handsome but "bad" guy named Suh Ga Yoon.

Read as you follow her life while staying in an All-Boy's school and living in a dorm -- with a male roommate, who happens to be a famous singer and someone she as "S" had once nearly beat up.

Watch out! Whoever bothers "S"'s brother, prepare to face her!
