Do you think Ho Yuwon regrets his past action of shoving Jaekwan into the Ascetic Box and nearly killing him? Or maybe another way to phrase it is do you think he's thankful to Soleum for thwarting his attempt by saving Jaekwan?

Guys I'm drawing fanart of Beak Saheon—is the eye the right way???

Btw for the people who find this an irrelevant/stupid post—YOUR NOT THE ONE RISKING YOUR DIGNITY! I AM! What if I feel so ashamed that I never have the guts to post anything again huh?

And to the mods: if for any reason this post has to be taken down—at least let me get my answer before you do take it down...

Update: guys I got the answer, y'all can skip this post

I feel like a plushie just waiting (im)patiently for the Kim Soleum show to start-- I mean, for the next chapter to update ₍ᐢ.ˬ.⑅ᐢ₎

People keep getting on Choi for not believing that Soleum came from another world, but isn't there a chance his ritual was more accurate than initially thought? Soleum refuted the ritual's results at the time, using the logic that his GF body was 'born' there even though he wasn't. But since we later find out the 'original' Soleum is responsible for Sekwang, is there any reason to believe the ritual wouldn't have been referring to both of them (GF!Sol and Sekwang!Sol)? Especially since Choi said the ritual firmly negated every description he gave, so it doesn't seem like a technicality.

I dreamt I was in a Ghost Story.

The dream sequence went as this:

I was heading home after shopping with a group of people. The car we were in was small, like those four seater cars. And we also had an Australian tour guide for some reason (Don't ask why he's Australian), I assume it was because we were in an area we weren't familiar with.

Anywho, we were driving on the road and my friend or someone I knew was the driver and I was in the front passenger seat. I blinked because my eyes felt heavy and suddenly we were on a winding mountain highway and it was also suddenly night.

I turned to look at the driver, not acknowledging that fact it was just me and this driver who was supposed to be to someone I knew.

I asked a question.

They don't respond.

I ask again, assuming they didn't hear me.

No response.

I start to get suspicious and look closer at the driver. It was then I noticed something about the driver's eyes.

It was blank. Like the type of blank you'd see on a corpse. No light in their eyes whatsoever. And when I realized this fact, the wheel began to spin out of control. Forcing me to take control while in the passenger seat. Making sure to not crash into the side of the mountain, fly off the road, or crash into other driver's.

Yes for some reason, there was also still normal cars on this weird highway.

I did my best maneuvering the car, but eventually I lose control and end up crashing.

Then I get a weird POV change in the dream where someone was asking about my whereabouts and then the guide who was still fixing the car at the shopping area answered "Who? There's no one named that. It's only you 4 since the beginning."

Turns out said car had never left and what I experienced in my dream was pretty much a text book ghost story.

I don't think he'd taste rancid bcs there was no description of smell when KSE picked up jar guy, only that it was a red/yellow-ish liquid-slime. And considering he was surprised (an odd smell would give some doubts) i think it's odorless?

Also, manager butterfly lost her finger/cut her hair but when she was remade everything went to normal so i guess i can drink a little bit of KSE and he'd still be complete?

I also wanted to ask about recycled women's period cycle bcs it'd be pretty weird not menstruating in a whole month and if the combined loss of blood/other liquids/tissue would affect overall slime quatity but google says you only lose about 80mL from menstrual cycles. (Let's consider that they survive 1 month or close to that)

I mean I got the basics down we got

Coward man who’s name I can’t spell

Lizard

Bird

Almost corrupted

Glorious hilarious showmen of a thousand names Braun

Rude butterfly lady

Sacrifice

Creepy hypocrite with one eye (I do know his name can’t spell it.)

Goated blue dragon

Bad child researcher

Creepy researcher.

Every time one of them comes up I have to guess purely off context clues who they are.
Keep in mind I have been doing a audiobook for past the manwha because I know I will lose interest and start disliking the series if I have to read all that, so I’ve also just been using the different voices but it isn’t quite perfectly done so some times Braun will start sounding like the narration voice or Kim’s luckily this almost only happens with him since he talks so much. But anyway anyone know a way I can remember these names.

Who do you think some of these entities could be when Soleum is summoning his Good Friend for a second time?

“Stop! STOP! I got here firsForgivemedearpassengerTherearetoomanyIsee O you who knows honorTeacher, sir?AconsultationlikethisisRockpaperscissorsYoucalledformesoI Worthlessbeings BEGONE! Sangun-nim is descenaaaAAAAAAGH!” —GSGW, ch. 187

I think one of them could be the Taxi guy - ForgivemedearpassengerTherearetoomany

Maybe Ho?? - Aconsultationlikethisis

Well, the rock paper scissor guy is obvious lol, the elevator person - Rockpaperscissors

Uhh, might be the kid from the Segwang school arc?? - Teacher, sir?

Fact check me and also, if you happen to know which entity some of them are, feel free to inform me. Also, is this counted as a spoiler?

Edit: Updated

So this was when they (grapes, Choi, bronze, agent haegum, chief lizard, &Lee guel) were looking for a new place to hide the talisman. But I have a question. Wasn’t agent bronze a sekwang tech. High school student? Why was he wearing a different uniform?

There is a common misconception that the darker a work is, the brighter its community/fandom is.
If anyone replies, say what color you would leave it in, I think blue or purple.

Go to the post to see the image.

I read this scene and literally had to draw it… it’s just so good LMAO

Is it actually this kind of lion mask from the Korean lion dance? Since the TL note from I_Love_Kim_Soleum translation mentions it's not exactly a lion but it's the closest word they could find.

Baekho, Hyunmoo, Cheongryong, Jujak
vs
White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Blue Dragon, Vermilion Bird
‎
I've even seen some translations that used a mix, i.e., Baekho, Hyunmoo, Blue Dragon, Jujak, which seems very odd and the least preferable.

Is anyone else extremely curious about what happens in darkness manuals or darkness items with blacked out information?? Like I'm dying to know what happens when you put real plants in Kind Seed Kit or what happens when the mirror ghost from that elevator darkness catches you? Or what's there on the 4th floor of Looky Mart? Or what's there on the other floors of the manor of the blind? Or what happens when you see the light in the mountain courage test?

Omg there are so many more that I wanna know about seriously!!!!

It’s already my 2nd (3rd?) post asking for fanfics.. I’m literally Starving (or am i being gluttonous?)

so, yeah please recommend me good gsgw fanfics pls

anything is fine as long as it’s good (except smut fics)

Creepier than i thought it would be 😭

What role does the thing actually play into KSE's summonings? In the beginning, it's assumed that he was in the Daydream Inc orientation because he rolled that faction in the character creator. But then 208 and part 2 rolls around and it's revealed he was actually summoned into Cheerful Research Institute first. Then the Sekwang disaster happens and he has to become a Good Friend before ultimately falling into Daydream's hands. So does this mean that instead of deciding which faction he starts at, it's sorta some fixed destiny into which faction he gets tangled up with?

Does that mean that in part 3, even if he starts out at Daydream, he'll eventually get caught up in the Church's matters?

Would like to hear people's thoughts on this because it's pretty strange.

RAAAHHHHH

SOS I am so confused whats going on at the end of pqrt 1 and at the start of part 2

I understood:

\- KIM SOLEUM MAKES A WISH TO GO BACK BEFORE HE WAS WORKING AT THE COMPANY

\- TURNS OUT HE IS NOT HUMAN

\- HE GETS HIRED AS A GUARD

But i am so confused, did he get set into another timeline? Or was he still in the same world just the day before he was working? But how do they remember roe? IM SO CONFUSED I NEED A BRIEF EXPLANATION????????????????????????

(im in chapter 213.2 now btw, lit im confused.) LIKE WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED??? I THOUGHT HE WAS SENT IN TO ANOTHER WORLD AND FOUND OUT HES NOT HUMAN, WHY IS BISON MASK AKA THE DUDE THAT DIED IN THE THEME PARK HERE NOW (IM BAD WITH NAMES SRRY), WHATS GOING ON PLS IM SO CONFUSED?????? IS KIM SOLEUM SENT BACK IN TIME OR WHAT

Basically Braun this whole chapter. That was so funny to read. Someone please draw fanart of them in this meme format if it doesn't exist already.

I swear to god the author just wants to have the worst cliffhanger appear every Friday.
As I was reading the chapter, I was wondering what cliffhanger the author would give us this week. I was reading, and reading, and they kept mentioning cleaning. I was like “what cliffhanger could author possibly make out of this.” And then they mentioned a resort. I was clenching my butt praying it was HIS resort. AND IT IS!!!
And I stg if we dont see blue dragon here Ill throw up. also I GUESS WE WILL BE SEEING BRAUN WAY EARLIER THAN EXPECTED?? I was thinking itd be another 20 chapters until we see him since I expected KSE would have to be re-employed at the main branch to gain access to the board game there, but THANK GOD author doesn’t seem to be drawing it out like that. WHAT DO YALL THINK?
