When Iho goes to pick up the art supplies from the previous artist’s room, he finds an ominous note tucked between paint tubes: “Do not finish the portrait.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen he actually meets Madam Song, he finds her to be startlingly young and beautiful, yet she asks him to paint her as though she were eighty. What could it all mean? Listening to her seemingly unrelated stories about a spate of unsolved murders in Shanghai that happened long before Iho was born does little to allay his confusion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn a slowly unfolding revelation, each panel drenched in more dread than the last, Iho learns that no artist has ever left Madam Song’s hotel alive. He starts to suspect the horrifying truth of what she is, and what, exactly, she might be capable of. . . .\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eVolume 1 collects episodes 1-20 of the Webtoon comic \u003ci\u003eDelusion\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHongjacga\u003c\/b\u003e started out as an animator, creating the original artwork for the film \u003ci\u003eMy Beautiful Girl, Mari\u003c\/i\u003e.
