Failing to find confirmation that Mui and Habaek are the same being, Soah becomes more confused and despondent about her place in the heavens with her water god husband. Habaek, fearing his mother’s hatred against humans, seeks to protect Soah sends her back to her family.
Unfortunately Soah was too young to understand and Habaek too far removed from humans to think about the fact that the villagers expected Soah to die when she “married” him in exchange for him making it rain. They a...more

This is why I prefer to wait until a series has run its course to read it. It is torture to have to wait for the next volume, especially since they all end on a cliffhanger.
I both want the series to continue, and want the angst to be resolved at the same time.
The artwork is beautiful, and I really like the color illustrations. The story is written well.
I would definately recommend this series.

the manhwa with art so beautiful you can see it from the moon. (not mine, i'm quoting). and also a desperately romantic storyline that i simultaneously want to be extended forever and resolved immediately, and also funny bits. and korean [correction: chinese, by people with extremely korean-sounding names, this is not my area of expertise] poetry, some of which makes my soul shiver. AND ALSO one of my favourite tropes, the man who gets bigger at night, er, a character who alternates child and ad...more

A turn in the plot and things only get more and more complicated. Sometimes I'm just lost because of the order. There is no real set timeline. Lots of guessing. But its all worth it to read such pretty art
Saoh will remember for sure!
Haebeck just have faith in her!

Gettin' kind of dull. It's worth reading for the art alone, however.

Beautiful illustrations, but the translation is a bit tricky to read.

It's been a really long time since the second volume of Bride of the Water God came out, and in the mean time I've found that my interest has waned. Somehow this volume seemed inferior to the first two--the plot didn't really make much sense to me at all, and while some of the art was absolutely beautiful, a lot of it seemed sort of half-assed. I'll probably still pick up the next one whenever it comes out though.
Unlike the first two volumes, most of happenings around the third one focused on the supporting characters' feelings. I didn't say it's not bad but it isn't good for me either. This volume lacked the emotions that I wanted to see: like Nakbin's, Murah's, etc.
If you're a devoted fan to the Soah and Huye/Habaek pairing then you'll be disappointed and expect too much on the incoming chapters.

[see main review under vol. 1:]
This volume was a nice look at Soah's life prior to sacrifice and all of that but it was a little bit wishy washy for me. I still rather enjoyed it - and I very much liked the addition of her human love interest to keep things nice and angsty.
Maybe it's because I've been away from the series for a little bit, but I found this one utterly inscrutable. The constant flashbacks and erratic shifts in narration left me thoroughly confused. However, the art was spectacular, once again.
Gorgeous art, love the melodrama, the story is finally moving.
