will iwol's sister ever remember their past or are there hints of her remembering it? its one of the only things im disappointed about by the ending. even though i know why it ended up that way, i don't think rewriting her past/memories is necessary to enforce her dying wish, if anything, it contradicts it. She wanted Iwol to forget the bad memories and move past her 'death', so it seems she didn't want to be the reason for him being sad - but now that she's actually alive, the fact that their previous bond has been erased from her memories is too cruel. He would have to acknowledge that every time they meet, and I get the feeling that's not what she wanted from her wish.
In the side stories, Iwol's sister still doesn't remember her past life but their interactions are the same as before regression and Iwol basically becomes his true unhinged self towards her—he keeps on sending her stuff much to her dismay, and even forces her to enroll in weekend classes and stuff. She finds him the weirdest person she's met even if he doesn't look like it.
Considering that they are close with each other now, I think it's okay even if she doesn't remember her first life at all...
Aww that’s so good, thanks for replying! Not gonna lie, it took me a while to swallow the bitter pill that she won’t remember. Like I know things are OK as it is but I’m feeling greedy and want Iwol to be even more happy. I do feel bad that his sister went through terrible times so maybe it’s better that she doesn’t remember, but like Joowoo said, he wouldn’t give up good memories just because of a few bad ones.
I started reading the novel because I heard they didn’t add the future seeing item which turned me away from the story a bit. Anyway the novel story is a lot smoother (just finished the main story and there were no forced spicy scenes) and the Gaia system made a lot more sense. Unfortunately, I think knowing the future and not understanding the Gaia skills properly will lessen the impact of the upcoming plot twists. It seems like the BL quota is overshadowing the amazing plot here.
Finally finished the side stories and… (spoiler alert btw)

There were less spicy scenes in the novel than I thought? The future seeing item gave the implication that they do it a lot after getting together but the reality is that they’re super slow burn. I can’t believe they didn’t end up doing it until 2 years later lmaoooo. I thought the R rated side story would be full of spicy scenes and I was just met with more plot, not that I didn’t welcome it haha.
I’m so sad it ended, honestly I thought the side stories could continue on forever as a couple travelling space adventure story and I would eat it all up. But it would stray from the main plot of the story so I guess it’s goodbye :(
Yeah same.
I don't like the force added smut. It messes with the flow and made me dislike a few things like him being so focused on the dream he can't listen to Seo talk about the literal most traumatic moments of his life. It ruins the characters a little...
Like, there's so many smut BLs out there, let me have the plot focused slow burn ffs. Jump scaring readers with smut when it's currently supposed to be angsty is so weird.
I hope the manhwa of Hunter's gonna lay low at least stays faithful completely and doesn't do something unnecessary like this.
I liked the Hwarang idol battle part but I can understand why they skimmed it since it didn’t add anything to the story.
I think the most important thing that was missing was the TeSTAR vs Onyx (TeSTAR’s main rival for the rookie award) bow and arrow version of paintball.The aim was to ‘look like they’re trying hard but not win first place so they aren’t taking attention away from other groups’.
It’s another subtly psycho Chungwoo moment taken away from us #-.-) (Moondae: he looked like a platinum player slaughtering all the bronze players). In the end he had to stop Chungwoo from going crazy LOL
The other one was during the bird variety show when he said he’d rather shoot the birds (with a bow) than with a camera.
I’ve already posted this before but thought I would do it again. It’s an epub compilation of all 644 translated chapters with the best non-MTL versions I could find (the final few chapters 629-644 are MTL because there is no human translation version out there but I’ve fixed it as much as I could so it should make sense to an extent).

I had a friend request me for my list so I thought I'd post it here too.
Firstly DoD actually released official instrumentals versions for It's Me (Idol Inc.'s theme song) and Magical Boy which can be found on soundcloud and its also been covered by some youtubers. Tbh, the only other sources of DoD songs without AI assistance I know of are the youtube channels Catch Your STAR and Camellia. If anyone knows any other channels, let me know pls
Something I also like to do is listen to 'voice castings' on youtube which is basically when channels match TeSTAR's songs with an already existing kpop song with a similar concept to imagine what the song + their voices would sound like. Even if the video is monetised (which it usually isn't), the profit still goes to the original artist. I discovered a lot of kpop songs this way, so I do recommend this as an alternative for those who don't want to support AI generated music.
Broooo wtf is this chapter is so cute but is this actually the official translation? Wdym ‘I got caught up watching skirts’ that could totally be misinterpreted
I’m pretty sure it’s a parody for Shorts but why skirts??? Lmfao what the hell
And ‘once u get addicted there’s no going back’ geez it makes them sound like creeps
I couldn’t wait for the rest so I read the novel from the beginning. It’s insanely cute
The only problem was that even though I read from the beginning again, it didn’t feel like I was reading it the second time bc of all the parts they skipped
Novel Jeongwon feels cuter and sneakier and they explained the games showing how much (internal) planning and effort he really put in to get his way. Cha Hyeon also feels a lot more sassier but in a funny way. Honestly it was just so addictive bc the chemistry between Jeongwon and Haewoon is amazing and such a rare find-unfortunately a lot of it was skipped over. I really highly recommend the novel~~
Hey guys I compiled all 644 chapters into an epub + cleaned the text. I'm not sure if the link will show up here, but if not, send a DM and I'll reply (feel free to send a DM if there are any other issues): https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/lhpkmdqhs67p5wata1kfg/dod-allchapters-cleaned.epub?rlkey=m5r2seoeygsy8mw4kjjz1qx7t&st=gat60l6n&dl=0
