the friendzone is real....!!!

Ji-hwan: ...There's a butterfly perched on a flower.

Sounds like he was talking about Norae and Seola. Norae is the butterfly and Seola is the flower

ieeheh:

I kinda read it like the butterfly is a symbol for love more than an actual character. It flutters around quickly, never staying in one place for too long, but captivates those who glimpse it.

Ji-hwan recalls his encounter with the preserved butterfly and connects it to his feelings for No-rae. Not that his feelings are dead, but more like he can look back on them in a "museum case" and their beauty is still very much present, but just aren't the same as when they were "alive". (the museum being significant because it is a universal symbol of antiquity)

Under this light, the significance of Ji-hwan saying that "There's a butterfly on a flower" would be that love has decided to present itself on a metaphorical silver plate for Seol-a, and that she should pay attention to it while it's still in front of her, or risk having to see it in a museum case if she waits too long.

Well, that's just my take- what does everyone else think about this?

As always, thanks to halmoni and all those involved with translating/typesetting etc.

The butterfly representing love was one of my interpretations too. But thinking Seola the flower made it more fun lol

Butterfly No-rae is definitely fun to think about. Probably more fun for Seol-a, but... ╮(─▽─)╭

No-rae is straight and she's gonna move to australia with Ji-hwan to find Yu-ji because the real pairing in FF is No-rae/Yu-ji

Thank you halmoni!!

I know this is way in the future, but if you ever prank us by changing all the translated dialogue for Seol-a/No-rae on April Fool's, I'll never forgive you. :C

(At least until you release the real translation lol)

Seola: want me to buy you some gloves?

Seola always sounds like a wealthy guy lavishing young girls with money and gifts. In Norae's case = food food food

HypocriticalLiar, why do you give halmoni the idea :O

it'd be pain in the arse for me if halmoni actually did that lol

i know right. i've never had a friend who'd just up and offer to buy me gloves. i wonder if norae still doesnt get it. seola's so clearly into her now.
take a hint norae!

Thank you thatanon and Halmoni for the great work you put into this FF fandom

Ha! Called it!! Ji-whan is such a bro! And I wonder if No-rae intentionally or unintentionally flirted with Seol-a at the end there. It's like both are starting to drop hints and plant seeds at the same time whether or not they realize it. But now that Seol-a is watching No-rae much more closely, I hope she starts noticing all the freakin blushin No-rae is doing around her! XD....

sdiasjfdiasfufhwhf HNNNGGGG I CAN'T BREATHE djawdjkwfbwf YAZ YAZZZ SEOL-A GO GO GO

NSFW! NSFW! Where was the NSFW warning man!

With how it's progressing, I really hope that Ssamba continues to write them even after they get together. Would be a shame to not explore their relationship since she's doing a pretty great job on the pacing. It feels really natural and not too slow at all even with 45 chapters.

Hope Seola trims those claws once she and No-Rae get together...

Ikr.. Her nails were the first thing I noticed when their hands were shown.

I feel like Seol-a would cut them because of the extensive research she would do on the Internet for "yuri" couples. That would be later though. ;)

After reading the translation, I loved this chapter even more!

I really appreciated Ji-hwan, all-chapter long. He seems so different from earlier chapters. And it looks like Seol-a is following Ji-hwan’s advice, good girl :3

halmoni, I always enjoy your comments! Thank you for allowing us to understand Fluttering Feelings!

And many thanks to thatanon and flutteringfeelingsmanhwa!

On a side note (because, well, I know we are all focused on that hand-holding :P)

hashi:

In the infinite expanse of time between Mondays, I find the time to compile a list of remaining plot material Ssamba has yet to cover (please append if I've missed anything):

1) No-rae's ex
2) What Ji-hwan had to do with Seol-a attending this university (possible 'you owe me something, I'll have No-rae pls k thx hur hur' plot device here)
3) Yu-ji shenanigans (currently being covered)
4) Seol-a's accident (ditto as above)
5) Meetup with Seol-a's family (Seola's other oppas and parents)

It seems like we discovered n.2.

SOOOOOOO CUUUUUUUUUUUUTEEE

First of all: thanks to all involved in the various steps of this new chapter in English! :D
This manhwa is a real pleasure to read ^^

yuzichan

The new chapter 44 of ff felt like a filler chapter where not much happened but it doesn't matter because I still enjoyed it. I hope that there are more yuri Korean manga comes out. Its interesting to see the difference in culture and style in Korean manga then Japanese manga.

Would like to point out that the "filler" chapters in this series are not filler and show the characters interacting with each other and other in normal situations, filling out their personalities, dynamics with others, each other, and even how they dress. It's nice to see them being normal outside of the obvious journey to being a couple. It makes them well rounded. I never understood why most complain about filler when in the majority of other romances, we spend the ENTIRE time reading about the characters worrying about if, "Does X love me, does X love me not?" It's nice seeing them as normal people with lives.

So true!
And chap 44 is a good example of it. I thought it showed nicely how the relationship between Seol-a and No-rae had evolved, their interactions showing they had become pretty close even in everyday activities.
Also, the "fillers" show the characters being persons with their own troubles/joys and not only things revolving around the other character.

That said, chap 45 was very nice too ^^ (to me, this story has a pretty nice tempo)

(PS: please excuse if there are many mistakes, English is not my native language ^^'')

that summer trip series is hilarious! :)

one more comic to the end (I think, there weren't other parts from it :P)

Confused... Was that 1:1 between Ji Hwan and Seol A before (thus flashback) or after the scene with him and No Rae?

Smooth move Seol-A.

Thanks for translation and imgur posting.

Now that someone was also confused about the timeline of this chapter, I admit it was confusing too lol.
Maybe Ssamba forgot to to distinguish the flashbacks scene. She was rushing towards the deadline afterall. Only 2 possibilities:

1. The hug scene was a flashback, it happened before they went to the hot pot. Either Seola or Jihwan was thinking about the hug during the meal.

2. The hug scene was after the hot pot. Seeing Jihwan hugging Norae made Seola remember what he told her during the meal. And teng teng teng, Seola was motivated to be a lil more aggressive.

I'm more on the latter
