Post-Completion Thoughts – Michuri Reboot

Post-Completion Thoughts – Michuri Reboot

Readers, are you all doing well…!!!

Already March…!!!

It’s spring…!!!

The story that began in autumn has already reached its end in spring, I, Michuri, am deeply moved…

This is a side note… but to me, Michuri, last year, ’24, and this year, ’25, feel like time is passing by so fast that I feel like I’m clinging precariously to the roof of a train…!!!

Like barely holding on to a desperately fast train with just the strength of my grip…!!!

Amidst those hectic and mentally draining days…!!!

I hope that my, Michuri’s, story, 『The Manly Man Hides the Villainess』, has been a small and insignificant respite for you readers…!!!

『The Manly Man Hides the Villainess』…!!!

Initially, a new concept and attempt departing from the existing style… in other words, a story that started as a Michuri Reboot…!!!

In many ways, it was supposed to be a reboot of Michuri that was different from previous works…

But as I progressed, it ended up becoming Michuri again…!!!

The bargained sale of Eeng-eengs and Keong-keongs, and nymphs…!!!

Nevertheless, thanks to the great support from the readers, I achieved meaningful results in the contest and seemed to have safely reached the end…!!!

I’m revealing this now… As the story progressed, I, Michuri, regret that it became more serious and darker than I had originally thought…

Originally, Namjin was planned to be a bright friend without a single shadow…

But it turned out that I, Michuri, was full of yearnings for fulfillment and warmth that I didn’t even know I had…!!!

This…was not actually intended by me, Michuri…!!!

But in the end, Namjin became a friend who shouldered and overcame a difficult world…!!!

Perhaps deep down, I, Michuri, was hoping that a problem-solver like Namjin would exist in a world full of sad and difficult things…!!!

Of course, I also think there might have been better ways to develop the story…!!!

Because every time I heard chilling news on the news and the internet, I questioned myself what kind of writing I wanted to do in this world…!!!

I, Michuri, hope that in this difficult world, the readers can comfortably read…!!!

Like a rest area on the road…!!!

A bonfire in the cold…!!!

I want to write something like an eave that can shelter you from the rain for a bit…!!!

So, if I get to write the next one… I want it to be something that lets you look away from the worries and anxieties of this tough world and just laugh freely…!!!

Taking out the dark, serious gas… I want to write a story that’s more comical, lighter, more touching, and full of human warmth… That’s what I’m thinking…!!!

In many ways, the story of my next work, which is being written with great enthusiasm, tentatively titled “The Gods Adore Me Too Much”…!!!

Will be written based on the various regrets I, Michuri, realized while writing this story… Like, the desire to compensate for the way the content becomes heavier and more serious as the story progresses…!!!

This creature called Michuri…

As I felt while writing the story of Yohan from a long-lost, destroyed world…

I just can’t write serious, heavy stories…!!!

But why does it keep turning out that way…

Perhaps it’s because I’m riding on a fast train of years… and old, sick Michuris are popping up everywhere…!!!

Old, sick Michuris are strangely serious…!!!

The fact that there wasn’t a single 19+ scene in this story is also, in many ways, an accident caused by the lack of stamina of these Michuris…!!!

The Michuris who make rice cakes didn’t have enough stamina to pound the mortar…

But…!!!

That can’t be allowed to happen…!!!

After the completion of this story, I, Michuri, will promptly try to increase my stamina by doing both hiking and running…!!!

Carrying the old, sick Michuris on my back and dumping them on the mountaintop…!!!

And bringing in healthy Michuris…!!!

I’m going to practice a Michuri reboot, that’s what I’m saying…!!!

In that sense, all of you readers must always be healthy…!!!

Only when healthy readers stay with me, Michuri, for a long time can I, Michuri, avoid starvation and become rich…!!!

All of you readers should make a lot of money and give me tons of sponsorships…!!!

Anyway, it’s spring…!!!

This year, ’25, it’s actually just beginning…!!!

It’s truly a good time to try and start things…!!!

I, Michuri, will try not to give up and keep challenging myself in many ways this year too…!!!

I hope that ’25 will be a year when you readers can challenge yourselves to do anything you want…!!!

Because failure isn’t the end, but giving up is the real end…!!!

Thank you for watching my challenges so far, and I hope you will continue to watch my future challenges with warm yet critical eyes…!!!

Then, until our next meeting, I’m casting a voodoo spell of lightness on you…!!!

Reader, a voodoo charm to lighten your steps…!!!

Maybe your first step onto a path never walked before will be as light as a feather…!!!
