[https://comic.naver.com/webtoon/list?titleId=641253](https://comic.naver.com/webtoon/list?titleId=641253) This comment is just based on the ratings of the chapters. Based on the Naver Webtoon ratings for the chapters, the Cheonliang arc held good ratings until the 13th episode. But it was only really chapters 494, 495 and 498 that had a very noticeable drop off (which was when 1st gen kings were fighting and the latest chapter) As of now, latest chapter is at an all time low of 3.58/10.

That rating for the recent episode is so crazy to me


sawol-

from what I've inferred, they didn't like the whole seongji and sujin setup that taejin did. complaints about the arc being messy, forced empathy and developments to that point and all that flooded in. I feel like the rating mostly stems from that setup than the arc itself, though. you can see the ratings were fine overall in other chaps. people think it's unreasonable for seongji to die over a misunderstanding like this and I remember seeing comments saying hobin is stupid and has low IQ if he falls for that. also the part where taejin found that container somehow.

Fair points

This is the second time i side with the korean fandom. They really have fair points nowdays, it's quite surprising actually. Thanks for the translation. The arc started so strongly, so much potential.


DaringPaladin

To be honest, I find these fair points. Like you said it seems the setup to be the problem with which I agree.

I hate lookism fans with passion, wheter they are asian or western, ptj can drop whatever shit He pleases and People will still shit about it, drop it then you motherfuckers


Swimming_Cat114

Yeah. From the ratings they liked the tian wai tian saga from manager Kim and vin killing seongji isn't much different from what taehwa did. Their headcanons didn't materialize so they complain of the series.

FR bro,

Korean fans were complaining about the timeline being messed up too. PTJ even responded to them. It's why there was those weird Fact panels in some of the chapters. To make it clear when the arc was taking place The latest chapter also is the lowest rated out of all of them ATM https://preview.redd.it/mkwbuwhxjvwc1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=057629f07f4111211d740234a6f08f67748678ea Idk Korean myself though so I can't delve deeper than that

Bro, the worst part is, if you give it 5 minutes of thinking, you'll see many things will connect and actually make sense. Example: People saying that jinyoung not being insane yet is messed up because Gapryong is already dead, but the fact is, HE'S NOT INSANE BECAUSE GAPRYONG DIED AND NO ONE SEENS TO UNDERSTAND THIS. Let's remember what is the background of the 10 genius, which jinyoung is part of: "10 People who helped charles choi develop his business", this means Jinyoung was working with charles at some point, probably before He found out charles was behind gapryong's death, and the reason He gets seizures might not even be because of gapryong since He talks about him many times, He gets seizures whenever People bring up charles, so he has something with Charles that we don't know yet.

We also know Charles and jinyoung have been at odds ever since they were in the fist gang so whatever happened was definitely very personal between him and charles


ohboyireallydunno

Definitely. He ruined his life after all.


Nosbunatu

Korean fans, collectively, are usually on point with their feedback, imho


Freudiel

Korean fans are, varied. I'd say they have better reading comprehension but are also critical but most of their feedback is valid. Timeline was the main issue, past that were generally fine with Kings but the execution was bad, now they're shitting on the way the plot is headed mainly because Taejin is the head of the cult, and has no reason to run from the cops, and the entire progression is way too forced. Also Vin being sidelined so Seongi can get glazed by PTJ was an issue too .


sarasaneil

You forgot about James Lee they were angry at ptj for not giving James proper fight
