    If you're interested, you can check this out. Don't be fooled by the literary title; it's actually a gangster novel, or even a Tibetan one, though that's not entirely accurate—it's more like a gangster story wrapped in a shell. The story is quite slow. The main point is... How should I put it? I've given each character some contradictory psychological states. In plain terms, this book has a lot of psychological descriptions, focusing on internal conflict. For example, even when killing someone, they hesitate for a long time, thinking, "If I kill him, if I beat him up, what will happen to his family?" And the protagonist might not be decisive enough to kill; even if they fight, they'll offer compensation. Even if the other person has murderous intent, it's still because the book has a theme: "Is change really growth?" If we become like them, doing similar things, wouldn't that prove that those who caused us pain were right?

    My first novel, a fantasy time-travel story (slow burn). Before, when reading novels, I thought writing a novel was just about throwing together some ridiculous settings and a few silly, pretentious plot points, plus some rare treasures, powerful weapons, and beautiful girls for the male lead. I was tired of those traditional fantasy tropes, so when I decided to write my own, I didn't bother with those clichéd, silly, and face-slapping plots. But actually writing it took me over a month just to create the setting, world-building, and character development. Then there was the drafting and revising of the plot, and it wasn't until last month that I finally published it. I think almost every writer who struggles with low ratings but still perseveres understands the struggle. Although the ratings are still average, I think it's like that saying on Tomato Authors' Recommendation period: a thousand people, a thousand faces—a thousand people see a thousand Hamlets. Maybe I just haven't met the right author for my novel yet. The early episodes are more slice-of-life, so I hope readers won't leave too quickly. The pace will pick up as the plot develops, but there won't be any boring scenes. If this novel has fortunately caught your attention, please feel free to click to urge for updates, add it to your bookshelf, and leave a review. Thank you for your support!

    Both romantic storylines take place during the school years, with the main storyline being a romance between an older woman and a younger man (though not psychologically), and the flashback storyline focusing on characters of the same age. The female lead is unpretentious, independent, strong, and a bit quirky, while the male lead speaks plainly and honestly. Both male leads have a strong sense of possessiveness but aren't greasy. There are many foreshadowing and details in the early stages, which all fit together later on, giving it a feel of a Korean drama script.
