Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint was originally published as a webnovel. The novel is on this
divided into 5 volumes, each containing a number of episodes, along with a 5-part
epilogue. Each episode is further divided into around 4–8 chapters.
The novel was exceedingly popular in the Korean webnovel reader community, having
exceeded 26 million views on Munpia by September 2019.[3]
Other Versions
In January 2021, an ebook and physical book release were both announced.[4] The
`rst eight ebook volumes were released in March 2021 on Munpia and later Naver.
Four more were released in September 2021. The last volumes appeared in January
2023.
SingShong have con`rmed that they revised some parts of the novel for the ebook,
but those changes will not be renected in the contents of the original webnovel.[5]
According to the "author's review" featured in the e-book, both versions are equally
"correct" and likened to connicting memories of the same events.
The ebook has been receiving various physical releases. Since 2022, Korean
softcover and hardcover editions are being published. Oacial translations in
simpli`ed Chinese, traditional Chinese, and Thai, are distributed as well.
Side Stories
The side stories are bonus chapters, detailing previously untold events in ORV (e.g.
expanding on Yoo Joonghyuk's backstory). As of May 2023, `ve side stories have
been released: two in the ebook, one in the physical hardcover release and one freely
available on Munpia/Naver[6]. The last side story began on February 15th 2023 and
has been ongoing ever since with roughly four new chapters a week. It appears to be
a direct continuation of ORV and is centered around webnovel author Lee Hakhyun.
Furthermore, ORV characters have made an appearance in the side story of World
After The Fall, one of Sing Shong's other webnovels. None of this content has been
oacially translated in English yet.
Movies
Munpia announced in September 2019 that they had signed a `lm production
contract with Realize Pictures. Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint is to be converted into
`ve feature `lms; the release dates are yet to be announced.[3] Actors Lee Minho and
Ahn Hyoseop were con`rmed to be in talks for the roles of Yoo Joonghyuk and Kim
Dokja respectively.[7]
Webtoon
In February 2020, a day after the end of the webnovel, an ORV webtoon was
announced.[8] It is currently being produced by Redice Studio and published by Naver
Webtoon. An English translation was released August 19th by LINE Webtoon. It is
following the events of the ebook, not the original webnovel.
The webtoon has attained a high level of popularity in Korea as well as abroad; by May
2021, it had accumulated 360 million global views and consistently ranks at the top
of the Wednesday webtoon list in Korea.[9]
Anime
The anime adaptation is based on the web-novel-turned-webtoon Omniscient
Reader’s Viewpoint by sing N song and Sleepy-C (Redice Studio) which ran from 2018
to 2020 via publisher Munpia. The manhwa series is published in English via Ize
Press.[10] The anime was announced in 2024 however, no release dates have been
given.
