That apocalyptic web novel you’ve been following for years? It just became your new reality. The good thing is, you already know all the heroes and villains by heart, so surviving till the very end should be a walk in the park… right?

Adapted from its namesake novel, Omniscient Reader, available in Webtoon, utilises a supernatural plot line, gripping fight graphics and trendy elements such as live game streaming to weave a wonderfully rich fantasy world.

Initially, protagonists Kim Dokja assumes that he has this new universe all figured out, but he soon comes to realise that there are more kinks in the road than he could anticipate.

As his version of events diverge from the novel’s original storyline, he finds himself meeting new characters that he never read about. And the most exciting (yet disconcerting) revelation of all? He turns out to be frenemies with the novel’s original protagonist Yoo Joonghyuk.

What’s fascinating about Omniscient Reader is how Kim uses his insider knowledge to lead his followers out of one difficult situation after another. It’s a story of will and wisdom, and fans of the webtoon will find themselves right at home in Kim’s all-knowing shoes until that first plot twist comes along.
