Sweet Home (webtoon)
Sweet Home (Korean: 스위트 홈; RR: Seuwiteu Hom) is a South Korean webtoon written by Kim Carnby and illustrated by Hwang Young-chan. First published in Naver Webtoon, the webtoon ran for a total of 140 chapters plus 1 prologue from October 12, 2017, to July 2, 2020. It centers on a suicidal high school boy who, along with a group of fellow apartment residents, tries to survive a "monsterization" apocalypse (goemulhwa) where people turn into monsters that reflect their innermost, most desperate desires.
The webtoon is the second collaborative work by Kim and Hwang, the first being Bastard (2014–2016). As of January 2021, its official English version garnered 2.4 million subscribers and 15.2 million likes. A print version of Sweet Home was released since February 28, 2020 by Wisdom House. It has also been adapted into a Netflix series of the same name released on December 18, 2020. A prequel titled Shotgun Boy, written by Kim and illustrated by Hongpil with Hwang providing editorial supervision, was released in Naver Webtoon starting February 22, 2021.
After his family is tragically killed in a vehicular accident, suicidal 18-year-old Cha Hyun-soo moves into Room 1410 of the Green Home apartment complex. Soon after, he and other residents begin experiencing auditory hallucinations and nosebleeds, and one night, through his video door-phone, he witnesses his female neighbor from Room 1411 transform into a human-eating monster.
Two days later, Hyun-soo learns that society has collapsed as people undergo a "monsterization" apocalypse (goemulhwa), a phenomenon widely discussed online. Downstairs, a group of residents led by Lee Eun-hyuk fend off the first monster attack on the building, but not before one is killed. Many more residents are killed as the attacks continue. Hyun-soo crafts a makeshift spear with a kitchen knife as a spearhead and, following advice from Han Du-sik of Room 1408, uses his phone as a monster detector, where if a call produces a beeping sound, it signals a monster is nearby. He goes to Room 1408, where Du-sik modifies his spear to deliver an electric shock.
Hyun-soo rescues two orphaned siblings, 9-year-old Kim Soo-young and 6-year-old Kim Young-soo, in Room 1210. However, as he attempts to return to Du-sik's apartment, his transformation into a monster momentarily takes hold and another attack separates him from the children. Yoon Ji-soo of Room 1510 and Jung Jae-heon of Room 1506 rescue him. Meanwhile, the children are caught in a battle between two monsters but are saved by Im Myung-sook, a partially 'monsterized' resident. Hyun-soo, Ji-soo, and Jae-heon arrive to help her.
After spending a day in Du-sik's apartment, Hyun-soo, Ji-soo, and Jae-heon decide to join the survivors on the ground floor, leaving the children in Myung-sook and Du-sik's care. During a battle with a monster, Hyun-soo is knocked unconscious. In his mind, his inner monster tempts him with a hallucination where he watches his favorite film, Maria From the Sky. Realizing he is only hallucinating, Hyun-soo rejects the temptation and awakes to find Eun-hyuk and his younger sister, Lee Eun-yoo, by his side.
The residents debate whether to oust Hyun-soo due to his partial monsterization. Eun-hyuk proposes a vote but argues that forcing him out would be tantamount to killing him. The vote results in a tie, causing an elderly man, Kim Seok-hyun, to protest. However, his nose begins to bleed, exposing his own impending monsterization. Later, Eun-hyuk tasks Hyun-soo and Pyeon Sang-wook, , a gangster-like resident, with rescuing the survivors in Room 1408 to utilize Du-sik's technical skills. While they are away, Myung-sook fully succumbs to monsterization; however, her deep longing for her lost child rather transforms her into a passive, fetus-like monster within Du-sik's apartment.
On their way to Du-sik's apartment, Hyun-soo and Sang-wook encounter other survivors: elderly Ahn Gil-seop and his caretaker Park Yoo-ri. The two successfully return to the ground floor with Du-sik, leaving Gil-seop, Yoo-ri and the children in Du-sik's apartment. Du-sik repairs one of the apartment's elevators but it inadvertently leads to the fully monsterized security guard entering the ground floor and attacking the residents, killing many, including Jae-heon. The sight of Jae-heon's corpse causes Hyun-soo's inner monster to temporarily manifest. Upon regaining control, he kills the monsterized security guard. The remaining survivors in Du-sik's apartment use the elevator to join the ground floor survivors.
