Novel readers please talk with me. . . . . . . . . I feel like the artist changed the time...

But if Wonjun exposes the video of that bastard, victim’s father would still get killed…fck…what is the point of mixing the timeline…maybe for the better storyline, I guess

Oh you might on to something.
Up until now even the timelines is changed, it’s acceptable because the core story isn’t changed. Well I got slightly irritated about this little detail because it somehow make MC looks like he is slightly irresponsible. seeing manhwa only people start to criticize MC I imagine if I haven’t read novel I would get annoyed too and that’s sad. And about your theory >>

Let’s see how the manhwa will cook. I mean the reason must be heavy enough to change the “white” policeman like mc to “grey”.
But if the father doesn’t died, will they still keep the blackmailing part in his phone?
Because I think that’s the very important part, it’s like the father’s case is MC’s last straw. And I really like this part from the novel.

<< At the same time, he found himself wondering what he really felt.
What if Choi Wonjoon had done it?
Was he going to put him in prison?
Be honest.
When you heard Kim Jichul’s fingers had been cut off, part of you felt satisfied.
When you pressed that pillow over Kim Jichul’s face, you truly wanted to kill him.
Do you really have the right to do nothing but blame Choi Wonjoon…? >>

And he lets ML in his car after this, it’s like he’s open up to him.

If this part was poorly handled in manhwa maybe Yieum would be criticized again.

You’re right…that’s the only moment for MC’s last straw and where ML did something good(though it wasn’t based on the legal law) guess we still need to brace ourselves for what is going to happen to the father…
