看漫畫好像是不少人的愛好。近幾年，漫威系列漫畫改編的影視劇也受到追捧。大概是看到了漫畫作品的大好前途，這幾年韓國興起了網(wǎng)絡(luò)漫畫的熱潮，大家拿著手機(jī)就能看。這算不算是與時(shí)俱進(jìn)呢？

Webtoons, also known as webcomics, are Internet-based comic strips available through cellphones. The genre is a growing cultural force in South Korea, supported by an ultrafast Internet and smartphone-crazy populace, and fueled by a small army of young, creative, tech-savvy graphic artists.
網(wǎng)絡(luò)漫畫（webtoon或者webcomics）指在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上發(fā)表、能夠通過手機(jī)閱讀的漫畫作品。這類作品正在韓國形成一股逐漸崛起的文化力量，有超快速的網(wǎng)絡(luò)和智能手機(jī)癡迷族做后盾，再有一小群年輕、有創(chuàng)意、懂技術(shù)的插畫作家搞創(chuàng)作。

Most webtoon serials are published on major Internet portals free of charge and once or twice a week. They cover a wide range of genres, as diverse as romantic comedies and horror.

Their popularity has drawn the attention of the wider entertainment industry, and top-rated webtoons have been successfully adapted into TV dramas, films, online games - even musicals.
