What makes the "Blind" doujinshi uniquely powerful is how it challenges the visual nature of the medium. Doujinshi are, by definition, visual comics. Removing sight from the protagonist forces the artist to become inventive.
Kim Dokja is blind. The group is in a shelter during a monster wave. Yoo Joonghyuk has just returned from a fight, covered in blood.
