Baam really dislikes Yu Han Sung. I mean we knew that since he even hates using moves he learned from him, but I wonder if they'll do more into it. It would be interesting if he used some of Yu Han Sung's techniques in front of Yu Han Sung. Baam vs Baam will definitely be interesting to see and I wonder how he'll grow from it.
I think Koon might struggle with the good and evil meter thing. Or Rak will ruin things for them. Also, hoping Hockney gets to play a decent sized role in this arc. But so far the sworn enemies and getting to meet the young 10 family leaders are the most interesting elements set up, although these different stages could be interesting.

Anyway this week...
I think I spoiled this week's contents last week... I think. But we have the exposition on the Stage(s) (TN: Plural markers are optional in Korean ;n
, and the Forbidden Fruit. This is just lore for this particular stage, but I tried to go for maximum polish in a short time.
In webtoons or in manhwas(K for Manga) that deal with fantasy, they succumb to sacrificing their unique color due to the volume of the work often. If you try to worldbuild, you have to put in more content and that means a slower pace of work, so you end up getting yelled at despite the hard work, ㅜㅜ. I've been doing this for a few years now... ^^; Well, I just want to give you guys immersion into this other world. I don't want the pacing to get too loose either... I have to to blend the two ends well, but that's a difficult problem. But it'll get better, I think.
The Stage will have parts that go quickly, as well as parts that go on long. I don't know how many stages will be in the arc, but it will be longer than other arcs. However, each stage isn't going to be too long, so the pace won't be slow. Of course, pace is a subjective thing, so it's difficult to say in advance haha.
And the Forbidden Fruit is literally a forbidden fruit. It's got no particular relationship to the mythos of the Forbidden Fruit (tn: As in the one found in the Bible, presumably).
Moreover... Baam meets his nemesis... Since this arc's theme is "meeting of the past and the present" I think Baam fighting himself has something to do with that I'd imagine.
I recently noticed myself getting heavier, so I'm dieting for my health... But it's really hard. Battle with yourself is always lonesome and bleak (tn: SIU used two diff words in Korean that both translate to "lonely", but has different connotations) I lose to food on a daily basis. Since I work I'm only eating two meals a day... but that's all turning into fat -_-...
I lose, but Baam's still in the fighting so haha. I hope you guys look forward to how Baam and Viole's fight will progress.
