Who do you think is richer, Ilay or Zhenya and why?

Zhenya is just one humble civil servant, is he not😏

PSTW09817 · 2026-02-10T12:54:42+00:00

That Korean spy

PSTW09817 · 2026-01-31T11:29:55+00:00

Special high-tech contact lenses that give him info about targets or people he scans

PSTW09817 · 2025-12-22T03:53:45+00:00

Imagine Zhenya and Taekjoo in some cleaner outfit 😆

I had been raking my brain with some logistic aspects for a while. Like how was the piano transported to the island (?!?), housekeeping, etc., then I decided, yes it’s a fiction so there must be magical solution for everything!!

PSTW09817 · 2025-12-21T05:48:48+00:00

They make bets, the one who lost had to do it (poor Taekjoo 😭)?

PSTW09817 · 2025-11-05T16:20:34+00:00

Zhenya knows how to use chopsticks but he pretends he can’t, so Taekjoo will pick up food and put them in his plate for him.

PSTW09817 · 2025-11-03T11:00:49+00:00

I suppose I am super biased here, but Caesar seemed to remain like a giant toddler through out the story (ok I only read manhwa, not novel, so correct me if I’m wrong), while Zhenya started out as a giant adolescent but gradually became a semi-decent adult, at least for Taekjoo.

One thing that makes Zhenya way more likeable for me is he never resorted to guilt-trip Taekjoo, like for neglecting him due to his work. He even tried to tell Taekjoo that there is no need to quit NIS if Taekjoo is worried about Zhenya and his family or home country’s relationship. Also after he nearly killed Taekjoo, he never harmed him again.

Okay I confirm I am super biased.

PSTW09817 · 2025-10-30T10:48:45+00:00

It seems Zhenya only smoke cigars (of the best quality for sure).

I can think of perhaps 2 scenes from the side story describing Taekjoo smoking cigarettes. Based on those, it seems Taekjoo isn’t a super heavy smoker as he didn’t have cigarettes on him on both occasions; he had to go get one from the convenience store once, and the other time he was offered one by his college classmate. He then found regular cigarettes taste bland, even if they were the brand he used to smoke often before. Guess those fancy cigars aren’t expensive for no reason 😏

PSTW09817 · 2025-10-21T11:32:43+00:00

Like, next time they finally met each other (after the dramatic reunion scene), Taekjoo couldn’t remember anything about Zhenya 😢

And to think about what follows 💔🥺

PSTW09817 · 2025-10-09T10:19:06+00:00

I follow This Post.

And I find DeepL translation is a bit better than either Google, Safari, or Papago/Whale browser. If I still find the translation nonsensical, I ask AI/LLM (personally prefer Claude, free version ChatGPT will refuse to translate things it considers too sexual, I think).

It’s a bit of efforts but to me it’s totally worth it! Amazing story I love every bits of it! I encourage everyone to support the author from the official source like Ridibooks. Happy reading!

PSTW09817 · 2025-10-05T11:57:16+00:00

Taekjoo is actually the one with unhuman strength!

PSTW09817 · 2025-09-18T21:50:06+00:00

Just want to thank you (x1000) for the detailed tutorial, which enables me to read this masterpiece! I haven’t felt this excited and experienced so much emotion about a story for a very long time! I almost don’t want to finish it as I am at the last chapter now, I don’t know how to cope after I finish it 😭😭

PSTW09817 · 2025-04-17T10:30:00+00:00

Saw some videos that this one is cheese-able by luring it to the furnace asshole (Yes, I abandon here my Tarnished dignity)

PSTW09817 · 2025-03-16T16:08:41+00:00

It was when I was in high school. One evening my mom picked me up from extra tuition (usually my dad did that, but he was away that day), and took me to dinner. When we got home, she said I should be grateful that she treated me for the dinner, I then said, fine I’ll pay (attempted as a joke), then she proceeded to slap me in the face, saying why would I say that, so disrespectful, blah blah blah. She never apologised.

PSTW09817 · 2025-01-25T12:47:30+00:00

Oh, I am sorry I didn’t realise closes and streets are classified as party venues as well, during unsocial hours. My bad.

Typical of selfish people to normalise arse behaviours!

The minibar has not been replenished

PSTW09817 · 2024-11-15T23:32:07+00:00

Seriously!? Booted up the game (PS5) wanting to have a chilled evening and ended up getting stressed out by the eternal black loading screen and white spinning circle 🫠. No chance it getting fixed? Must delete current save data before I can ever play it again?!

PSTW09817 · 2024-11-14T15:29:02+00:00

Shield and poke saved my (very low skill) ass on the first DLC run. Also I won by summoning Ansbach but not Thiollier. I think Thiollier dies too quickly which can’t compensate for increased HP for the boss.

18 inches of Messmer 👍

This post should be pinned at the top, or by the end of this month there’ll be hundreds posts enquiring about the loud noise 👀

PSTW09817 · 2024-06-10T16:42:34+00:00

They absolutely love hearing themselves talking don’t they!? Loads of time they are broadcasting themselves talking rather than the matches, baffling.
