oh god

Hi.. i hope you don’t mind but ahmm.. can you spoil it for me? Also.. is the author if the novel different fr the author of this manhwa? Thank youuu

author of the novel is different from the artist and the management team of the manhwa. usually most novel to manhwa adaptations just adapt the novel to art form. mostly they’ll cut out some content from the novel such as useless monologue and some scenes, but it should mostly be faithful to the novel and keep the same story beats.

from what i know about the manhwa industry the novel writer is usually hands off the manhwa but just approves whenever there’s changes that the manhwa team wants to do that’s different from the novel or if the characters and art matches what the author envisions. when the manhwa says that they’re changing the story, that’s a pretty big deal. so i’m hoping that the artist wanted this to happen, bc ik that the manhwa industry can kinda treat source material and the actual author trash.

anyways idk much spoilers but ik that huimin finds out about the art book and that he had two past lives. his first life was the story of the novel he transmigrated into. it wasn’t just a novel, it was his and ml’s actual life. so what essentially happened in their first life was that huimin and iheon died, and his art book came to life. huimin’s art book was an alternate universe that huimin wished he lived in: which was basically a non-omegaverse world and that he and iheon lived together as friends. now that they died, they reincarnate to the art book’s world. iheon knows that they live in this art book, and he treats huimin well in this life. but he feels selfish and wants to get with huimin, who in this life just treats him as a friend. he wants to get out of the art book, so what he does is make a novel form of their first life so that huimin can read it.

Now that Huimin has read it, this manages iheon and huimin to time travel(or transmigrate, i forgot which) back to the beginning of where huimin is being sold to iheon. huimin keeps his memories from only his second life and not his first. iheon forgets both, but remembers all of it pretty fast after they time travel. right where season 1 ends in the manhwa, iheon is basically trying to prevent huimin from remembering anything because he recognizes that if huimin remembers their first life, he’s going to run away from iheon.

in the novel that is what happens, huimin remembers(? i think, he at least knows what happens from their first life and decides he can’t take iheon back), so there’s a chase arc, and iheon redeems himself, and they get together properly. happy ending.

Ohhhh thank you so much! I learned something new! It kinda sucks that manhwa adaptation treats the novel trash.. and thanks for the spoilers. Btw, I really like how you told the spoilers and how you explain everything. It’s so thorough and easy to read. Cheers!
