the way
I would absolutely
die
for this man.
he's so badass
he's so cool
he's so fine
he's an antihero and has been soloing the story for a while
he delivers the best lines my GOD
"You're not the only one with a history. Everyone's dealing with their own issues."
"War? This is how we greet each other"
"Well, I'm fucked."
I am.
obsessed.
someone free me of the chokehold Jake Kim has on me 😩

Taejun Pak is one of the best writers ive come to find out.
Unlike JoJo's writer, Taejun doesnt forget old details from a hundred or 200 chapters ago and makes good use of em. Im rereading through chapters 318-324 to see when Steve Hong and Daniel Park meet and but happen to find that old money case Daniel gives to Tom Lee waayyyyy later at the end of Worker's 2nd Affiliate as well.
Somehow he's also managed to copy paste Daniel's surprised face with zoom-ins along with Steve's plain side eye also with zooms. Only difference between these "i look at him, he looks at me" panels are the backgrounds.
And he copy pasted Steve touching Charles Choi's back from ch262 to Daniel's back in ch319. Although his pose and face were the exact same, Steve's surroundings and the panel's background were different.
I dont know how Taejun Pak remembers these old details from dozens of chapters ago or even hundreds, but its a refreshing thing to see instead of moving completely into a new arc and only referencing details from previous ones. No, PTJ uses old details, no throwbacks.

one thing about ptj's writing that always leaves a bad taste in my mouth is sometimes i feel he doesn't completely grasp the issues of abuse and sexual trauma, mostly and majorly for the female characters, but the male characters too.
take for example mira getting sexually assaulted by the cult leader and camp instructor, zoe's transaction with logan, club vivi, vin'mom being raped and killed by the shaman, sujin being abused and preyed upon and sexually assaulted before getting beaten to death by taejin... ALL of this feels so catatonic, almost unnecessary in its cruelty. this is a horrible world no doubt. but whatever he inflicts to his female characters seems to be done purely for the sake of shock value, almost like an indelible grief or hurt or helplessness a MALE character has to overcome in his path to nirvana. it is never shown what the woman feels about her own violation, no impact of it can be seen on her own life before she dies or simply forgets and moves on (kinda telling of the author's attitude towards how victims ought to react...).
then lets talk about the male victims. daniel gets stalked, goo and gun and eli were all minors who trained under a man who unironically touches people's genitals and brags about doing so, olly gets raped, eli gets groomed (i will not argue here about this one), sinu is shown naked often with the woman who brainwashed him. not mentioned in the comic but should be pondered upon is the fact that jake and jiho were in juvenile prison, a place with alarmingly high rates of sex crimes. dg is an idol who deals with invasive fans (sasaengs in real life are legitimately terrifying). seongji and vin were the ritual vessels for a cult. but this aspect of their trauma gets completely brushed under the rug, as if even alluding to it would take away from their strength and uhhh, masculine nature.
much to be thought about his treatment of his own characters...
