Synopsis:The next stop in Dokja's journey is Chungmuro, where the scale of the scenario is far greater than anything his group has faced so far. Making matters worse, the whole place is controlled by the predatory Landlord Coalition that makes the thugs in Geumho station look like a joke. Between the various opposing factions and daily monster attacks, the station is one enormous powder keg, and Dokja holds the torch! But while he is preoccupied with this complex chess board, another key player is nowhere to be seen. With Junghyeok's disappearance, Dokja is forced to consider a chilling question--if the main character of this universe dies, what happens to the rest of the world?
Book two of singNsong’sĀ Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint gives Dokja some whole new problems, as he rejoins some of the people he previously helped to save and navigates a new scenario. There’s some really fun stuff, like the whole idea of the Cinema Dungeon, and the way Dokja tries to use his memories to the group’s advantage to take care of them.
I’m curious where his relationship with Junghyeok’s going exactly: he keeps thinking of him as an asshole, but he’s pretty obsessed, after all. I’m guessing people ship that, especially given the assumptions some of Dokja’s companions make about what he said to Junghyeok (which gets censored for them and viewers of the “stream”).
Obviously the challenges will keep growing, but I’m curious when Dokja’s changes to the world start to make it difficult for him to judge what’s coming next. You’d think that would snowball quite quickly…
In any case, looking forward to reading the third volume as soon as it’s out.
Rating: 4/5 (“really liked it”)

I haven’t read book one, but I’ve definitely seen lots of people shipping Dokja and Junghyeok on the internet!

I’ve read enough of the manhwa adaptation now to see exactly why, hehe.
