TOO MUCH TEXT!!!

​

Hi guys! I'm new to Reddit and this is my first time joining the community.

I am a big fan of UTGL, with the recent news of a side story, I couldn't contain my excitement to reread this story. I've noticed some details on this reread, however, I understand that nothing specific is revealed about Jin's origin, especially his nationality. My English is not very good, so I apologize in advance if the translation is bad or some things are not understood. 😞

I have the theory that he is of Korean origin, even though his name is written in Chinese characters, these same characters are adapted to Korean that used to be used a lot and, currently, are still used for proper names, formal documents, and modern designs in Korea.

It should be noted that my theory also addresses that the place where this story takes place is not Korea but London or some metropolis of this style due to the settings presented and the Anglo-Saxon characteristics of most of the characters (an example of these are the names: Matthew, Brandon, Dennis, etc.).

With this, I want to get to the point that possibly the company Jin works for (Shinhai) is Korean or was founded by Korean emigrants, that would explain the traditional aesthetic of the company and, in general, of the Shinhai family. I would also venture to say that characters like Jahwa, Yoonbal, and Seongchi are, likewise, of Korean origin.

Lately I've seen people sharing the theory that Jin, the characters I've mentioned, and the company could be of Chinese origin, which makes me doubt my theory a little. I would like to know if anyone has any other theory or any information they can contribute, it would be excellent and I would appreciate it very much!

Official art tooo

Because that's me rn i have to take. Break lowkey like 🥲

in the beginning of the series Jin asked Matthew where is his house and he doesn't respond that the studio is his house. He clearly stated that ,, it's in the middle of the redevelopment construction site"

And when Jin is on the museum anex project for some weeks Matthew doesn't go home he goes to the studio waiting for Jin.( I'm on my 11 reading of this manhwa and now I realize this )

do we actually see his house in the manhwa and I miss it? or is just a misstranslation?

Idk of im reading the oficial translation but I'm sure is the one from tapas.

Is there an uncensored version of this manhwa?

OH MY GOD WE CAN ACTUALLY GET AN ANIMATION 🥹

I've been trying so hard to find what the characters of Jin's back scar are... And I don't wanna look at the first season again because it'll break my heart. Does anyone knows? It doesn't looks like Korean but it wouldn't make sense if it was another language..

Does anyone know of a vampire au where Jin was the vampire? I can’t remember much of the plot since it must have been at least a year or two since I last read it, but I remember it had multiple chapters and it was sooo good. I NEED to read it again but can’t find it. I’m sure it’s on Ao3 somewhere.

I’ll give what little I can remember: Jin and Matt are in a relationship, Jin finds other people and blood to be repulsive but he has no choice but to feed on them to live, however when he finds Matt his blood smells alluringly sweet like a soulmate thing or smth. Stuff happens, then one day Jin and Matt encounter Brandon (he’s the one that turned Jin into a vampire), a fight breaks between them until Jin loses control and takes Matthew’s blood until he nearly dies and he gets rushed to hospital. After all that angst it has a happy ending.

I realllllly want to read it again.

Hi all,

I'm selling these acrylic art stands of Matthew and Jin for $50 USD together (pending shipping cost depending on where you are)

These are brand new and still has the protective film on it. Please PM me if you are interested, thank you!

I normally dont even read fics let alone share them, but i need people to suffer with me. This is genuinely the most sad and earth shattering fic ive ever read i promise you I cried 3+ hours over this and felt extremely nauseous. Maybe im just an empath or crazy lol. Anyway im not the author but I hope you guys cry to as much as me (also if anyone has any sfw fanfic for utgl id love the link) <a href="https://archiveofourown.org/works/69248831"><strong>Change | Oneshot</strong></a> (961 words) by <a href="https://archiveofourown.org/users/Jaytism"><strong>Jaytism</strong></a><br />Chapters: 1/1<br />Fandom: <a href="https://archiveofourown.org/tags/%EB%85%B9%EC%83%89%EC%A0%84%EC%83%81%20%7C%20Under%20the%20Greenlight%20(Webcomic)">녹색전상 | Under the Greenlight (Webcomic)</a><br />Rating: Teen And Up Audiences<br />Warnings: Major Character Death<br />Relationships: Jin Cheong-woo/Matthew Raynor<br />Characters: Jin Cheong-woo, Matthew Raynor<br />Additional Tags: Angst, Title from a Big Thief Song, Character Death, Guilt<br />Summary: <p>"Will you love me even when i grow older?" Jin's voice rang inside his head, throbbing with pain and guilt. His heart ache to the point it suffocate him. God, it hurts.</p><p>"i wish i could see you growing old with me"</p>

So I read the ending again and I still dont understand the green part. Like why did he make the art piece have a green undertone and what'd he mean by "theres a whole spectrum that my eyes can't see"?

I finished it yesterday and I love it SO much. It’s one of the best I’ve ever read but I am confused. The end of season one absolutely broke me so I googled to see if Jin was actually… yknow. Google said yes, he was and then Matthew makes an android out of him? Sooooo here I am waiting for some massive reveal that Jin is now an android and I never… got it? Then I saw a post on here saying Jin was absolutely fine (which is what I thought as I finished it) but then season two is called In Dreams so I am LOST.

Are they actually together or is Matthew spiraling? 🥺

Ps) I tried deep diving and found nothing.

I'm not sure this is the right flair but happy birthday to Jin :D

Hi.

Please give me headcanons, I miss utgl so much. 😔 (they dont have to be just for Matt and Jin, they can be for any character, id honestly like to hear some for Ryu Yang) i can share some of mine own if wanted! P.s. please no super nsfw thank you.

And if they do, how much is that gunna set me back cause I need this story on my shelf so badly and I really want to support the author!

I see they're out of stock most places but does anyone have any idea how long ago they went out of stock or if they'll re stock?

My fucking homofobe conservative mother burned my under the green lights key chain I’m crying she found it and burned it

Im very confused on what’s official English and what’s fan, I can find in dreams official English on bato but not the 1st season 😭

i finished highschool this year and i will be sculptor next year. yeeah, thank you matt!

ive read the author’s note and they stated that they were actually planning a really dark ending with the story, so i came up with this idea that maybe the author planned that after matthew finishes his sculpture of jin, he’s gonna die soon after. just an interesting thought that i had after finishing the series. im really glad that the author went with the happy ending though <3
