It's going to be a overwhelming manhwa, a story about a mom and his son. The bond between them will give you another level of experience. I really wanted to share a manhwa which is not only about romance but also about the bonds with parents.

The name of the Manhwa is "Mom, I'm Sorry" you will find out why the name is like that when I start elaborating the story.

In the beginning of the story we see a son who's name is Henry, he is at the hospital. He found at that his mother is going to die soon, she has been suffering from illness over 20 years but she kept it hidden from her son.

She was taking painkillers and she was suffering alone. When Henry found out the situation of his mom, he regretted everything he did in the past.

He did not spend the times well with his mother. All he did was play games and hang out with his friend. If his mother asked him to do anything for her, he would get mad.

Henry even kept asking for things from his mother and she tried her best to provide for her son but he never appreciated his mother.

His mother left his dad when he was a kid because he was not a good human being. She has been raising her son alone and suffering from illness for years.

Henry was feeling devasted and crying so hard, at that time a man came to him with a deal of lifespan. That man offered him to give his lifespan of 44 years to his mother.

Henry wanted to know about his own lifespan first but the man disagreed to share and still Henry decided to give his lifespan to his mother so she can be cured and live again.

When Henry signed the contract that man disappeared and Henry's mother came out of the washroom looking very Young as she was in her twenties.

Henry found that his mother is going to live from her early twenties and on the other hand Henry can be dead anytime as he doesn't know when.

He tries his best to give his mother the best life which she never had. He also got her admitted to a college and guys already started hitting on Henry's Mother.

Henry decided to find the perfect man for his mother and leave this world peacefully....

Will Henry be successful in his mission? Did the lifespan of Henry really get shorter or there's something more?

I really like the stories which includes parents. We often neglect our parents and sometimes misbehave even without realizing. This manhwa will give you a reality check. The story ellabrotes everything perfect about how mothers always sacrifice for their children.

In the story the son regrets his action and decided to make his mother's new life better and make her dreams come true which she left long ago. He does not only repent but also a huge character development seen in him. He is not selfish at all he really wanted to see his mother without someone else if she's happy.

As his lifespan is short he does not want his mother to live alone in pain which she already went through for 20 years. The son gives his best, and that makes the story interesting. We see how son also started to begin acting like a parent, where he can finally realize how hard it is to be a parent.

I genuinely like the bond between son and mother, it's very emotional to see them spend time together wishing each other well. Henry has changed himself, and I think if he really dies in the manhwa then I won't be able to take it. Because thing started to get good and I want to see all of them alive and to see how Henry's mother's life get better.

The artstyle is good not below average, it's fine as the way it is. Not too fancy or not too simple, it's between. The face expressions are really good, it's hella funnier when the characters are making faces. I had a good laugh, there's a good amount of comedy in it. Nothing felt forced everything looked genuine and logical.

I like each and every character, they add some depth to the story and makes it go forward. I also like the male lead and hopefully he won't turn out to be a bad person. I just want to see Henry and his mom being happy, I don't want any of them to be dead because I got too connected with the characters.

If you're looking for a mother-son bond and some extra spices then this is the manhwa for you. I highly recommend every age group to read this manhwa it's amazingly-written. The plot is different so it's going to win your heart very soon.

There are 102 chapters, the good news is that it's completed. Until chapter 8 you can read the others for free. After that you have to pay with coins or you can watch ads which will allow you to read the story easily. I prefer to read from webtoon because it's super easy no ads nothing, you can read it legally and peacefully.
