✍️ They don't know I'm from Hwaseong… Paying 5000 extra for the 2nd floor was sure worth it. And so that's the AFC Champions League, the Korean 1st and 2nd division all visited in one week! Whew!

👹🟪 FC Seoul vs FC Anyang
⚔️ 2-1

✍️ First home match of the season, and Anyang being just 2 hours away meant a cracking atmosphere from both sides. And guess what, Lingard scored the opener to win the home side 2-1! He's Seoul's captain and biggest star and he's sure loving it here.

[Groundhopping] Gwangju FC vs Buriram United 2-2

🇰🇷🇹🇭 Gwangju FC vs Buriram United
⚔️ 2-2
🏆 AFC Champions League Elite, league stage matchweek 8
🏟️ Gwangju World Cup Stadium
📍 Gwangju, South Korea
🗓️ 2025-02-18
🕖 19:00
🎟️ 15000 KRW
👥 2688

✍️ Gwangju FC are having the time of their lives now. They finished 3rd right after promotion to the top tier in 2023, qualified for an Asian tourment for the first time in history and had already secured RO16 before this final round match.

Actually I don't follow the K League, this is only the 2nd time I attended a game (the first was FC Seoul vs Ulsan HD last November, seeing the stadium erupt after Lingard's goal felt extra surreal as a Forest fan in Korea 😅) but now I got interested and I'm ready to tick a few more off the list this year.

I think football saved my life (an honest comic about how it feels)

Some feelings that I don't generally show in my art

A four-panel comic in watercolour.  [1st] The artist's avatar(a brick red lindworm) looks out the balcony window with a snowy hill visible outside and thinks 'I hope spring won't come this year'.  [2nd] Same scene viewed from outside the window and closed up. It thinks 'I doubt it will. Everything is dying and it's our fault, we don't deserve flowers'  [3rd] A closeup that only the lindworm's eye is visible. There is a big '!' and a speech bubble that reads 'But… if it never gets warm, when will I start wearing football shirts?' Below is a small drawing of the lindworm wearing a padded jacket and shivering.  [4th] The lindworm wearing a Maribor 24/25 away shirt frolicks on a sunny green and yellow field. There are plants that resemble club crests: a green and red tree on the horizon(Southampton and Forest), a red lily with purple leaves(Fiorentina), a green plant(Fenerbahçe), a red rose(Blackburn), a four-leaf clover(Celtic) and two three-leaf clovers(Fürth/Panathinaikos/Omonia).
