A complete butchering of Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint
This adaptation is a disgrace.
They erased everything that made Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint powerful. Kim Dokja — a quiet, broken soul — is now a bully who hates the book that saved him? Yoo Sangah — one of the strongest female characters — reduced to a passive healer? Misogyny and lazy writing at its worst.
Made-up characters, ignored lore, terrible casting, and not even the hair or height of both the characters was done right. The writers and director clearly never understood (or cared about) the original. This isn’t an adaptation. It’s a complete betrayal.
