5 Stars. This novel is absolutely stunning, so far.

The MC is a character who's been through everything. Beheading, torture, betrayal, starvation, imprisonment, and even more death. And so, his wish in his earlier regressions, slowly morphed into a need for death.

You can also tell he's human. His regressions fizzled out his emotions, and he has his intense PTSD in which you don't see in regression based novels.

The beautiful writing and symbolism is also shown in the author's writing.

This novel could very well be one of the best Korean stories written if it stays true to it's path. <<less
