He controls South Korea's most glamorous industries and its dirtiest money.
Lee Jae-hyun, the youngest “financial director” in Seoul's underworld.
On the surface, he's the CEO of up-and-coming film and television company Aether Media, producing glitzy music videos with millions of views for top-tier K-pop stars. Behind the scenes, he runs a vast money-laundering empire spanning smuggling, arms dealing, and cryptocurrency.
This deadly game, where intelligence battles brute force and rules are overturned by other rules, has finally reached the edge of a cliff.
Can he pull off one last clean-up beneath the spotlight of the Korean Wave?
Or will he ultimately discover that everything he so carefully built is nothing more than another, more glamorous prison?
A game that began with money will end with power, betrayal, and redemption as its final stakes.
It's alright, it imitates the interplay of light and shadow on a chicken skewers, but it's a bit of a left-brain conflict—on one hand, it complains about having Kim Sae-ron as a concubine, but on the other hand, it still gets eaten... Be decisive when taking a girl in; don't drag things out.
"A Generous Gift of Crabs" is super good! These days, most K-pop novels focus on BLACKPINK, Girls' Generation, Big Bang, or XO; novels about fifth or sixth generation groups are extremely rare. Harem themes are great, aren't they? After all, reading novels involves imagination 🥰 It's just that there are only 100 chapters so far, not enough! 😢 It's chapter 72, I misread it.
Yes, the male lead is quite eccentric, the plot is well-structured, and he indirectly saves Kim Sae-ron and New Jeans (most likely). The ending is quite good; keep it up! It has a bit of the feel of Ji Da's novel, about a gangster going straight and starting a business.
Write faster, I'll finish reading this morning.
It looks appealing so far, and I look forward to the author continuing to write better and better books.
Well written Korean entertainment
This is really well written! He's the most comfortable male lead I've read in Korean entertainment in recent years. Keep it up, and update faster!
Yes, it's possible. I just hope I won't let Lin down.
I'd give Kim Sae-ron's novel a five-star rating, but I'd like to ask if anyone has read the whole novel and what they think of it?
It's going well so far. Any similar recommendations? Most Korean entertainment novels are quite fantastical and idyllic; I'd like to read something more realistic. 😂
