Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint (Vol. 1)

Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint Vol. 1 launches readers into a unique apocalyptic survival story where the line between fiction and reality collapses. Kim Dokja, a seemingly average office worker and the sole reader of the webnovel Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse, suddenly finds himself inside the story’s brutal world after its mysterious conclusion.

Armed with knowledge no one else possesses, Dokja must use every detail he remembers from the novel to navigate deadly trials, form strategic alliances, and defy the narrative’s expectations—all while trying to stay alive in a world that’s collapsing into chaos.

Adapted from the acclaimed Korean webnovel by Sing N Song and illustrated with intense energy by Sleepy-C and UMI, this first volume sets the stage for a thrilling meta-narrative full of danger, wit, and destiny.

Main Themes of the Book

• Survival and Strategy: Success in this world depends not on brute strength, but on intellect, planning, and manipulation of the narrative.
• The Power of Knowledge: Dokja’s deep understanding of the novel is both a weapon and a burden as he rewrites fate itself.
• Fate vs. Free Will: The protagonist struggles with predestined storylines while carving out his own role beyond the original plot.
• Isolation and Identity: As the only person aware of the story’s true events, Dokja faces loneliness and existential dilemmas.
• Game-Like Reality: The story blends RPG-style mechanics with real-life consequences, heightening tension and unpredictability.
