3	A [[SugarWiki/AwesomeArt lavishly]] illustrated webcomic, ''Nineteen, Twenty-One'' tells the sweet story of two people trying to find themselves as they face some of life's most difficult transitions.

5	A young woman named Yun-lee reawakens from a coma to find her world completely changed, and struggles to come to terms with the time she has lost. Nevertheless she enrolls in university, and meets a cheerful nineteen-year-old, Dong-whi, who shares her uncertainty about the future. Despite all the hardships that face them, the two decide to fly in the face of mediocrity and apathy to save a dwindling group of friends. Who also happen to be cats. Because, to these two, felines are SeriousBusiness.

11	A 2-volume physical version was once published in France under the title ''18-20''[[note]]This is because [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Asian_age_reckoning the Koreans have a different way of counting age that makes them one year "older" than with the Western way.]][[/note]] but is now out of print.
12	----
13	!! This work provides example of:
14	* BirdsOfAFeather: Yun-lee and Dong-whi both really like cats.
15	* CherryBlossom: Just look at the page image.
16	** Even {{lampshade\|Hanging}}d by Dong-whi in Chapter Two.
17	-->'''Dong-whi:''' The cherry blossom season must be near it's end. They're really pouring down, aren't they?
18	* CrazyCatLady: Crazy Cat Couple: What a lot of people consider Yun-lee and Dong-hwi in-universe. Actually, they're just some really kind people who feel sympathetic towards the neighborhood strays.
19	* DeathByNewberyMedal: It is about cats, so...
20	* DoggedNiceGuy: Dong-hwi makes it very clear he's not going to give up on Yun-lee, despite her hesitance.
21	* FloralThemeNaming: Each chapter is named after a flower.
22	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Yun-lee wants the best for the cats but also wants to befriend the residents to prevent arguments.
23	* {{Keet}}: Dong-hwi definitely has the hyperactivity to be one, although is is a bit older than most in this group. [[IncrediblyLamePun He is also not the kind that his kitty friends would be chasing after]].
24	* KickTheDog: The cruelty to the local cats from the residents in the area.
25	* LastMinuteHookup
26	* LimitedWardrobe: Played straight with Dong-hwi, who nearly always wears the same outfit, but averted for Yun-lee.
27	* LuminescentBlush
28	* MeetCute: Yun-lee sees Dong-hwi climbing a wall. [[NotWhatItLooksLike He believes that she has mistaken him for a burgler]] but all she comments on is that he looks like a cat. Then they realise the other is feeding the local cats and bond.
29	* NotWhatItLooksLike: Subverted. See MeetCute (above).
30	* OneHeadTaller: Dong-whi over Yun-lee.
31	* PunnyName: Yun-lee and Dong-whi have an established group of furry friends they feed, and they name them... the Nyaveriks!
32	* SceneryPorn: The whole thing, really. Justified scenery porn because somebody is always cleaning up the area and planting flowers.
33	%% * SealedWithAKiss
34	* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Subverted. Dong-whi asks, after he and Yun-lee got mistaken for a couple, what was wrong with it and admits that he likes her.
35	* SnowMeansLove: [[spoiler:It's snowing when Yun-lee and Dong-whi finally kiss and admit their feelings for each other.]]
36	* UmbrellaOfTogetherness: Teased with. Eventually [[spoiler:Yun-lee gives her umbrella to the cats and runs off with both Dong-whi's coat and his newly bought umbrella.]]
