“Exciting. Funny. With some horror, but bright and charming,” this is how young writer and artist, Edd Lai, describes his work and the comics he’s been publishing for 6 months. His stories instantly catch readers who find his work while they’re in search of something different. In his illustrations, terror mixes with humor, and its main ingredient is a surprising ending, a completely unexpected plot twist. Writing is currently the way Lai makes a living. He has written some novels and scripts that were published in his native Taiwan, as well as 3 series of long-running comics for a Korean company.
In an exclusive interview for Bright Side, Lai commented that his main fount of inspiration is human complexity. He likes exploring the differences in people’s lives and discussing how each person’s point of view is based on what they believe to be true and in how they ignore other’s perspectives. We want to show you a selection of 11 of his comics so you can explore the work of this young artist and his peculiar world vision.

Woman Finds Love After Walking the Streets With a “Looking-for-a-Husband” Sign
In a city known for its bustling streets and diverse population, one woman’s quest for love has captured the attention of many. Karolina Geits, a 29-year-old model living in New York, decided to take matters into her own hands after becoming frustrated with the world of online dating. She took to the streets, armed with a sign that read “Looking for a husband,” in the hopes of finding a genuine connection.
She is looking for a real connection.
Karolina Geits, a 29-year-old beauty influencer, took to TikTok to share her story, which has since gone viral. In a video, Geits is seen strutting around downtown Manhattan with her sign, trusting that a dream lover will miraculously appear.
Geits’ unconventional approach sparked plenty of conversation and even led to a potential match. “I decided to make a sign that says ’Looking for a husband’ and walk around the city to see if that would work,” she said. As she strolled through the streets, her 5-foot-9 frame and striking presence caught the attention of many passersby.
She got tired of noncommittal men on dating apps.
After two years of being single, Geits had had enough of noncommittal men on dating apps. Instead of giving up hope, she decided to take matters into her own hands and create a cardboard billboard with her intention. She then hit the streets of New York City, hoping to make an in-person connection with her soulmate.
She might have met the one.
As Karolina wandered the streets of New York City with her cardboard sign she didn’t have to wait long for a suitor. A gentleman approached Geits, curious about her sign and her quest for love. The two struck up a conversation, and Geits was immediately drawn to his kindness and sense of humor.
“I exchanged numbers with one of the guys in the video — we’ve been talking for the past few days,” she shared. “We’re just getting to know each other,” she said. “It’s still new, but we’ll see where things go.”
Another beauty is following the same stratgy.
Like Karolina Geits, Yael Friedman Naimark has emerged as a woman unafraid to take a bold and unique approach to finding her soulmate. Going beyond the traditional method of looking for love in the streets, she chose to wear a wedding dress as a symbol of her readiness to say “I do” to the right person. While the outcome of her unconventional approach is still unknown, our hearts are filled with optimism, eagerly anticipating the moment when Yael discovers the deep love and pure happiness she deserves.
