漫画 (màn huà): 풍자화

When I was in elementary school, after school every day I would go to the little bookstore on the corner, buy a comic with my pocket money, and then sit on the steps by the door reading until it got dark before going home.

This comic book about history tells ancient stories in a funny way; even students who usually hate reading are absorbed in it.

Dad dug out a box of comics he had collected as a child, and as he flipped through them he told me how he saved up a month's breakfast money to buy each new issue.

He liked to draw comics in the margins of his textbooks, turning his teachers and classmates into funny characters, but his teacher found out and punished him by making him draw a blackboard newspaper for the whole class.

The walls of this café are covered with comic artwork by local artists, and customers enjoy it while sipping coffee, often unable to resist taking photos and posting them online.
