Where it came from
A Day Before Us is an original net animation series produced by the South Korean studio LICO, a subsidiary of Naver Webtoon. Launched in 2018, the series was designed to explore the nuances of romance and interpersonal relationships through a soft, minimalist aesthetic that emphasizes emotional subtlety over complex narrative arcs. Its production was driven by a desire to bring the visual style of web-based graphic storytelling to life, utilizing a clean, pastel-heavy color palette and character designs that prioritize relatable, grounded expressions to resonate with younger digital audiences.
The series gained significant attention for its non-verbal storytelling approach, often relying on evocative musical scores rather than extensive dialogue to convey the blossoming feelings between its lead characters. Critics and viewers generally received the series as a refreshing, tranquil departure from the high-energy typical of mainstream animation. By focusing on the quiet, everyday moments of romantic tension, LICO established a distinct brand identity that bridges the gap between traditional animation and the aesthetic sensibilities of modern Korean manhwa.
