Sorry for being dumb, but which world is real? Is this a multiverse scenario and the main arc is earth-616 or something like that?
All world are real but rn they’re living their 3rd lives . The flash backs that is being shown is their past lives I think
I think it like If you take out the happy world then this would be a standard iseksi/ go back in time story like turning. Its technically the same world. So world 1 and world 3 are doing that. Then u got world 2 in between- like going from ur house (works 1) to the grocery store(world 3), but u do by ur favorite ice cream shop first. (World 2)
Imma try to break this down cause I'm confused hopefully people will comment what I'm missing!
World 1: the world as described in the novel silence. Iheon and huimin are childhood friends to enemies to lovers and both die at the end
World 2: a happy world where huimin and iheon become friends in middle school. Huimin has a big family with no trauma. Eventually is brought to world 3
World 3: huimin thinks he's entered the novel silence starting from the auction and using his knowledge of the novel is trying to change what happens so it doesn't follow the story of world 1
From chp 54 we can surmise that iheon had all the memories of world 1 WHILE he was living in the happy world 2. So world 1 happens first in the order of events.
Then they live happy in world 2
Then the story starts off with huimin and iheon in world 3 and huimin thinks he's from world 2 and iheon is just living life with no knowledge of any world.
Eventually Iheon remembers world 2 AND 1 while living in world 3. That's where he starts to trust iheon and hid the sketchbook and ban therapy. He is also trying to change the ending
Huimin still thinks it's world 3 and world 2 is his true world but he is starting to remember world 1 and he might realize that world 1 is his true past.
I think that's right?
