I mean, after reading this, I kinda don't trust mls anymore, who take mcs in their home out of "good faith" or "good will" or "not expecting anything from mc" like imagine reading Sweet Not Sugar after this, without knowing that the ml there is an absolute green flag, I kept on suspecting ml will do something bad/non-con to mc because I've been traumatized by this one.
The rain is pouring bcs Dokkaebi is sad (reminds me of kdrama Goblin) lemme cry with you bb
Also, love how minchan is saying sorry without saying sorry. Can't you guys just kiss and make up?
I think Seoho/Minchan's case might be somehow similar to that of Seth from ENNEAD (also love that they are both redheads).
Seoho might have done something terrible and unforgivable to humanity that this sin of his had resulted in his name being deleted from the register, and for which he suffered the consequences alone. He had to somewhat betray Bihwan (Dokkaebi) in order to get Dokkaebi out of the sight of the other deities and thus be exempted from the punishment. That's why Seoho is the only one being punished, in the form of a curse. With this curse, his reincarnation (Minchan) is getting occasional fevers and the only solution he had back then was to swallow/eat a candy-like soul. Which boils down to one thing - he MUST work hard to kill every single bad spirit he encounters. In doing so, he's indirectly helping to get rid the evil ghosts from this world. It's more like a "clearing" task given to him by the deities as his lifetime punishment. A bit similar to Seth from ENNEAD who is also doing atonement tasks on his journey for his grave sin, guided by his cursed bracelet.
Bihwan (Dokkaebi) might not have been aware of Seoho's sacrifice for him. He mistakenly thought that Seoho had betrayed him in the past, when in fact Seoho did that out of love for Bihwan. He didn't know that Seoho chose to be resented by him rather than have him be punished forever (more like Seoho took all the blame). Also, how did Gwonryeom get his hands on that mirror wherein Dokkaebi was locked up for 1500 yrs? I'm thinking, Dokkaebi and Gwonryeom might have been great enemies in the past life. With his powers, it seems Gwonryeom is some sort of a powerful being. This war mentioned by Seoho might be the one in which Dokkaebi lost to Gwonryeom because Seoho chose to side with Gwonryeom over Dokkaebi.
Gwonryeom might have been interested in Seoho/Minchan (based on subtle hints in Ch 30). Although there's no clear evidence yet, it seems like he's doing something shady (or evil) behind Minchan's back, thinking he's doing it for Minchan's sake. He gives off this obsessive vibe (at least for me) that makes him look like he's indirectly controlling Minchan's life because he's interested in Minchan. Adding Dokkaebi to the mix, I think a love triangle is not impossible, although it will most likely be one-sided from Gwonryeom's POV. Remember Dokkaebi and Gwonryeom once had an ice-cold convo in Ch 14? It just shows that Gwonryeom does not like Dokkaebi hanging around with Minchan.
And how will Minchan regain his past life memories as Seoho? It might have something to do with what Gwonryeom said that his soul was torn into 10 pieces in Ch 4. Once Seoho's soul will be pieced back as a whole, he might regain his past life memories. Though I have a feeling that Gwonryeom intervened with his memories (based on subtle hints in Ch 27 and 30) making it hard for Minchan to regain them.
Again, just thoughts & theory because this manhwa doesn't have a novel.
ps. Please don't ask me for the raw link in the replies. You can sort this topic section by "Popularity" if you wanna know how to request for the link or just check out some more spoilers.
i like your theory! I think the same! We all should blame that king of underworld he's very sus...
To me Minchan/Seoho and Bihwan remembered a lot of dan heng/blade from honkai star rail. I love reincarnation plot like they were a sinner in the past and everything bad happened and the next life they are suffering as a consequence of their actions. I love yearning and doomed yaoi (づ￣ ³￣)づ
heyyy I might have missed the notif but thanks for replying! It's nice to know that I share common theories with someone out there, like you. While I'm not familiar with the Honkai Star Rail, I agree that reincarnation plots like this gets delicious bcs of the yearning (*￣∇￣)ノ
That's a game and the ship is from this game.. yes yes yearning is
guess where minchan got that black umbrella
tell me
I don't wanna spoil the next chapter but there's a hint in the previous chapter if you already read it
owemji i'm excited for the next chapter. my speculation may be quite far from the manhwa's which will be typed below...
i simply thought of was that dummy spirit that turned into a sword once.
Here I thought it was the demon creature that turned into a sword for him I’m probably wrong
exactly
you're not wrong
that spirit reminded me of that small, talkative circle ghost from Angel Buddy
here it is! :)
for L*zh*n's translators/staff, not the author. T*ppyt**n is way better.
sorry I just can't help but compare this with the Dreaming of the Dokkaebi.
in KR raws, there were 2 special episodes that the artists/authors released instead of 2 weeks hiatus because they ran out of manuscript. so it was Ch 19, followed by 2 special episodes, then Ch 20.
but in ENG official translation, T*ppyt**n released Ch 20 right after Ch 19 and didn't translate/release the 2 special episodes from KR raws which means they didn't need to go on "hiatus" unlike in the KR og ones.
while what we have here for LTIT: KR raws hiatus for 1 month - then ENG officials go hiatus for 1 month as well - which doesn't sit right with me. KR raw (Ch 88) is readily available, so what's with the hiatus? again, for L*zh*n's translators/staff, not the author.
sorry for the rant
And the fact that they would get more money if they released the eng chapter at the same time as the KR one just like they did with potn. Most People would directly go buy the chapter officially instead of reading fan translation . They usually do that with their popular manhwas and LTIT is definitely popular
but tappy does this as well. It very evident when it comes to season comebacks bc they usually take super long to return with the next season
right? can't they see it as a good opportunity to finally sync with the KR one? especially now that we're in the last arc towards the end of this manhwa, they should've grabbed this chance to close the gap from the KR one.
yup, I agree with the season hiatus (3-4 or sometimes 6 months, right?) but this 1 month hiatus, from how I understood the author's post on twitter, it's a preparation for the ending (well, we really don't know what's happening in the background if what stuff had the need to be prepared that time) so I interpreted it like sorting out the storyboard to deliver the climax how the author wanted it to be. entirely not related to translating (tho I understand it may take time to work on translating the SFX). maybe L*zh*n just have a lot on their plate atm.
that’s a decision only the creator can make if they would want to (like for example the creator of limited run had a simultaneous release for the last season but she then changed it for the other official chapters to be two episodes behind the Korean chapters).
Yeah it’s really just l*zh*n working at their own pace for the English officials and to maintain the gap they have set between the Korean chapters and English chapters
that's good to know :)
now you just reminded me of limited run (which I went back rereading my fave chap before replying here now lmao)
°˖✧ ╮(￣▽￣)╭✧˖°
I actually find it weird that he's laughing it off like that and acts as if he forgot about his artificial womb when he had been asking for sperm nonstop all this time?? so why are you asking for sperm then? silly airhead
Well he didn't actually wanted to get it in him like that, he wanted a sample for invitro
yeah, I understand that his initial intention was probably as a sample for invitro. But either way, the artificial womb was planted inside his own body. So, however means he got the sperm, the fertilized egg will end up inside him. Say, he got it via invitro, then he should somehow think of a possibility for success, and not just laugh it off as if it is entirely impossible. (Sorry for the scientific reproductive terms it's just that this manhwa is all about scientific stuff and I just had to lol)
(lil bit of spoiler from Ch 26: oh well he said sorry because it has been a year since he planted that thing inside him so he forgot about it)
There is also possibility that mpreg isn't a thing there so he didn't think it will work like that
I get it, it's a world that's very similar irl, so mpreg isn't a thing yet. That's why he started that egg project. If we reread Ch 1, Sunwoo said "he was hoping to get pregnant with the help of that egg". It's just weird that he was hoping before, and now he didn't think it will work like that. Really, unusual situations could bring unexpected reactions.
Where did u read chapter 26?
I get where are you coming from, but at the same time I think it isn't a major plot hole rather it's just depends on the interpretation of the situation
exactly :)

sorry for not answering your question directly. if we rephrase your question, you're asking for the link to the raws, which I already answered in that topic link above.
Isn’t it coz the project was still in experiment stages & he couldn’t figure out the final thing needed 4 the egg 2 work b4 they stop the project?? Which is y he probs think he couldn’t get pregnant since the project was a failure
That's a valid point
I'm so happy crying ╥﹏╥ the manhwa adaptation is now being picked up and continued by a new artist.
lowkey thinking this official site has been looking for an artist that can draw characters with somehow similar style as to the og artist that's why it took a long time...?
Taeju should have just erased Euihyun's name as guarantor, if he can't forgive the entire debt. Just saying because irl, removing a guarantor is possible, as long as consented by the lender.

how can we add a "horror" tag for this one? I'M SCARED
╥﹏╥
I know it's already tagged with "supernatural" but it's starting to get creepier in the raws and I'm not fond of horror I just stayed because of the beautiful art and unique and interesting plot plus the mc and ml's dynamic but
guys

I think we need to add a "horror" tag for this one please
can u spoil me plss
Ch 22 to 28 - https://www.mangago.zone/home/mangatopic/16188446/
Ch 29 to 31 - spoiler below
(spoiler)
(you sure wanna be spoiled?)
(to others reading this: you wanna be spoiled too?)
(warned ya)
29 - Knowing his personality, Minchan's reaction to the last panel in Ch 28 was expected. And then more storytime about his childhood including a glimpse of when his grandma died.
30 - Dokkaebi was looking into Minchan's memories in this current life when he lost his grandma, including that time when Minchan first met Gwonryeom.
31 - They're on another hunt of evil spirits, this time at the school Minchan last attended before losing his grandma. Things get creepy here, as Minchan hears a song from a distance that Dokkaebi can't hear at all. And there's a shadow of someone following them.
ps. To anyone who plans to leave a reply here requesting for the link, please DM me directly. I won't accept requests in this thread.
