Right?? Compared to his first impression, he's surprisingly a softie (=・ω・=) revenge seems like a typical ambition but going off my theory in other comment he may be hunted by the rival, up-and-coming, and/or new-to-Totem house/the girl's family. I'm getting curious about the political state of Totem now haha, and Chris's family's competitors. It's funny that Chris believes Cheongdo knows all about him but let's see how fast Cheongdo can react to the situation if all Chris says is "this is the moment I've been waiting for, let's go!" and Cheongdo's just "???"
That has to be one of my favorite chapters bc it reveals so much of Cheongdo's inner state that he himself doesn't seem aware of most of the time, and will help set up a big impact moment later on. Haha Sylvia was won over (๑•ㅂ•)و✧ Maybe to Cheongdo back then, you're rich as long as you can buy food and a room without worrying about money, lol? Or it just goes to show how much he treasures his friendships that despite being rich enough to buy a better sword, he still honors his friend's wish to use it and continues carrying it around. And I interpreted the upside down challenge to be a challenge between friends that seems common in Korean media, where they would play all sorts of games to, for example, choose who washes the dishes, who sleeps on the floor, who buys sodas for everyone, etc. It seems friends like to play these punishment games, but I bet if Ian heard they wanted snacks he would've proposed buying them for his team anyway ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~ Then Cheongdo would silently pump his fist lol
I rly want to see him deployed for once... earn your title man! (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸 he'd definitely come up with something worse than anything we imagine now, grr
Why didn't I make that connection? ( ̄∇ ̄") Omg it must have been the oper, or someone in his family who's messing w him, or someone else from his past?? Hope we'll get our answer by the time the cult arc ends~
That sounds about right! I'm hoping they'll befriend more allies in SETRU during the interim btwn missions, or maybe one of their seniors will be deployed w them on one

However Cheongdo resists or tries to stop it, the team member that was with them in the past will still end up on the team haha~ But in addition to the threat of a mind reader, I feel like the longer the con, so to speak, the more chance a single slip-up would give him away. Maybe not so much them growing suspicious he's from the future, for example with the guy witnessing Cheongdo kicking the team, he could say something about it out loud or within earshot of the team and they may begin to wonder what Cheongdo knows to possibly cause him to do such a thing, and they may pick up on more stuff in the future. (Sorry if that was a lil unclear ) I believe the truth will come out sometime before the massacre by pressure of other characters!
Hehe the moment Cheongdo realized that they didn't have to get along in the first meeting to team up (≧∀≦) It's interesting how much Ian trusts Cheongdo, too! Although that's part of his personality, he rly grew friendly and attached to Cheongdo from the get-go, maybe we'll find out a particular reason later on?
Yea it's still not clear to me when the bribery and death incident took place (and why would he even need to bribe in the future??). But you know, if he does commit bribery he'll make sure Ian never knows ( ̄∇ ̄") With Cheongdo around, the bribery can be prevented so hope that doesn't cause any cracks
Haha those sound about right >_< Ahh it's so fun to talk about this!! (≧∀≦)

LOLOL I CAN IMAGINE MC EXPRESSIONdw cheongdo is quick witted he will adjust to anything even if its chris scam(≧∀≦) he will quietly follow chris until he discovers what is going on but it will different matter if chris ask cheongdo to solve his problem out of nowhere or talk in his stead. That might be true that’s why he’s still quiet after kairo guy offended him it would make sense if he would be in danger if he where he was is discovered.
Oh that’s reassuring, thank you. They did play a lot of game also they solved big cases and made that awesome advertisement video sretu have to pay them handsomely(๑•ㅂ•)و✧ *chris after seeing cheondo fist : “you like that huh?” and then “No. Not really”
Need to see oper skillლ(´ڡ`ლ) I need cheongdo opinion of his skill.
Right!! let’s wait for the arc ended, anyway did you see the official lastest raw already? What do you think? Did the man resemble cheongdo? Imo both of them have same eyes shape and white pupil!!! The rest of the team and those cult people have black pupil and the gesture are quite similar in a few early panel Σ(っ°Д °;)っ
Oh right I never think of the senior, strong or admirable senior pleasee(๑•ㅂ•)و✧

Omg right the guy on the tree he looks a bit unstable as well. there is possibilities it happened because of that guy but actually half of it is really happening! Just you wait!!(≧∀≦) it’s about cheongdo and that kicking accident arc
Right fortunately we have deadlines so we can expect something big from it ლ(´ڡ`ლ) its interesting some of the future predictions are ahead of time
Wahaha it’s fate he said. He’s the youngest but act like the oldest (≧∀≦) he’s the type who will do everything for his peopleヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~ Cheongdo has a baby face(maybe emotionless is good for smooth healthy skin) they are surprised of his age. He was so small and fragile maybe that’s why. he grw like a fine wine

Yeah no way he'd let his mom solve his problems for him lol~ Despite her carefree and sanguine appearance, she may hold strong feelings toward the other family, especially if they've had brutal power struggles or struggles over resources. I was also thinking along the lines of a messy love tale, like a one-side interest that led to betrayal or the belief of one?

Hehe yup, I believe in Cheongdu's adaptability! (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
LOL
Now that you bring it up, I'm curious how they get paid! I'm guessing the missions are ranked/paid out differently depending on the difficulty and risks, but also they are only assigned missions appropriate for their ranks so that means as level 6s there's a limit to how much money they make. But they also make SETRU out to be a military, maybe it's just me but I cannot imagine anything other than a basic salary unless they really make their way up (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜
I want Cheongdo to see oper in action, too! I feel like one of his reactions is going to be: hmm, so Ian is going to get stronger than that, huh? Lol
Ohh yeah are you talking about the reporter Hamadu? Side by side their eyes do look similar! And I saw one of the Naver comments, someone pointed out that they thought they saw Hamadu's silhouette in the Sylvia flashback with the mom!! I'm excited by the idea that we rly could be seeing his dad rn! It's funny that Cheongdu didn't get any of his colors—his red eyes or dark hair lol
And maybe that means the mom is a reporter too, which would make sense why she is adamant that Ian is good, she probably was tracking their story back then ヾ(☆▽☆) Maybe she knows he's in the cult, and will appear after the arc ends to meet up with him??
Also, I read ch 107 and... I don't have a good feeling about the wager ╥﹏╥ I feel like the cult leader is lulling Cheongdu into a false sense of confidence—not that he isn't good at mahjong, but cult leader will no doubt pull some tricks now that the real wager is on the table... Cheongdu be careful...

LOL yeah I want that guy to reveal himself (≧∀≦) "I saw you kicking them..." Chris: "What? This b*strd..." Cheongdu: "Nope, never did that."
Ian is a good judge of character ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ Yup, he rly is~ I want an Ian in my life lmao
I even forget that he's the oldest as I'm reading ( ̄∇ ̄") lol interesting theory, but why do I get the feeling it's right?

Hope they get paid more than the other team, they’re supposed to defeat monsters only but they defeated bad organization and twice with the recent cult thingy. Extra work extra salary ╥﹏╥
Cheongdo probably thinking he is shrimp between whales fight Righttt Hamaddd bcs of his eyes shape I can’t give up thinking he is cheongdo daddyy traveling with mom
The team went to cult bcs of previous gang job I wonder if they did went in mc past and met hamadu too I hopee soo I want to see mc with his momヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~
Poor baby I need him to meet his whole family
The cult leader definitely a bad news. I once commented don’t judge people by theirs appearance but I can’t say that for this guys. He has pretty eyes tho lmao
Dw our cheongdo is savee he bring his communication devices(づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ

LOLOL I CAN IMAGINE!! Ian in real life sound so great ╥﹏╥ Ian didn’t get kicked so probably he’ll just laugh.
I expect the leader as the villain to reveal cheongdo hatred towards Ian insteadლ(´ڡ`ლ) but well, if he did Ian would be extra careful around mc ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ *I dont mind.
29 is still young their life expectations are 150 years(づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ if it’s in murim terms with 150years they’re all would be heavenly master levelヾ(☆▽☆)
never heard of oper slashed some mountain or his super power so probably not that strong but there is possibility since I think they’re the first generation of stretuლ(´ڡ`ლ)

Hehe it's been a while! I'm at chapter 113 and I feel like there's more to talk about now ^^
You know they deserve the money, but maybe they won't since it's the military T_T
I think it is pretty confirmed that Cheongdo and Hamad are related, and they get along pretty well! I was annoyed since I thought cult leader would say something about his mom but it turned out to be a lie (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸 (Agreed about his eyes tho, that was my first reaction lol~) If Cheongdo can get clued in, following Hamad would be his best course~ And gotta say, Hamad and Cheongdo's mom sound like they'll be cute together (▰˘◡˘▰)
I mean they might've found their way there bc what Kyoju says in ch 113 about framing Ian and the team seems like what happened to them in the original timeline, maybe that's why they're known as violent ppl. At the same time, if there was an article, Cheongdo would've read it and I don't recall him saying he knew anything about the cult. Hmm ( ̄∇ ̄) Or maybe, it is thanks to Hamad that two different stories are reported about the cult incident, and Cheongdo only read one?
And then the team stays with Hamad for a while and that's how Cheongdo's mom meets Ian and the others, which sets the bedrock of their friendship and knowing they're good ppl despite what newspapers begin to say.

But he got slapped lol (≧∀≦) I can imagine a slightly hurt expression on his face asking, why? But I think he'll still be calm and waiting for an explanation.
I'm excited for that, and it's like getting to that point where I am in the story? It's nice to see that tension already, with Ian getting anxious about Cheongdo doing stuff on his own. When he finds out, he'll probably realize how much he doesn't know about Cheongdo. It'll be awkward for a while~
Kyoju is a real shitbag (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸
That's true, they're all pretty much the same age~ only getting stronger fr ヾ(☆▽☆)
I rly rly want to see oper fight to get that assurance he'll actually be a worthy opponent, bc honestly I want him to be powerful and not just corrupt and shady, which is what he's shaping up to be :/ It's just with how he was set up long before, seeing him in the newspaper and going wow this is his fifth (?) year in a row, and his menacing appearance, I definitely want him to split the ocean lol. And then Ian will grow stronger than that and split him (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
Raws ch 94, the reactions after hearing her sad story is so precious spoiler :
- Cheongdo blushing(?), put his head on her lap
- Ian hugged her, she cry a little bit
- later on she hugged chris
*chris asked if she hate him bcs of his green eyes and she said no and proceeded to hugged chris while watching the night sky
Ian try to comfort her after heard her story while cheongdo thinking whether the future article about her are wrong or she is lying. The article said she has worst personality turns out she is a cinnamon roll
