SYNOPSIS: While working overtime through several nights, he fell asleep for a short while. When he woke up, he seemed to be possessing the villain of the webnovel he was reading. “Well, how typically cliché… to the point where I’d end up dead if I were to follow the predetermined fate. Darn it.” He need to find a way to survive. The first way to survive as a good-for-nothing villain in the webnovel. “Convince as many people as possible to be on my side.” The second way to survive as a good-for-nothing villain in the webnovel. “Become strong enough to protect myself.” Lastly, the third way to survive as a good-for-nothing villain in the webnovel. “Never become friendly with that proud and insane ‘Returnee Master’.” But what should he do? Even before he possessed the body, the original owner already caused an incident. “Use your money to kill the ‘Returnee Master’ who has yet to regain his power? Are you crazy? Then who will stop the Demon King?” This is the beginning of the modern-day survival + dungeon-raider fantasy story of Choi YuSeong, the possessed villain who wants to live a laid-back lifestyle!

Does anyone know if mc and Kim Do-jin become friends or rivals. There are moments when it feel like they will be friends, but then we get insight of what mc or Kim Do-jin are thinking and its like HOW CAN THESE PEOPLE BE FRIENDS!?!? I honestly love this mc! Hes the perfect mixture of being a coward and brave By the way .... is the mc dads butler the dad to Kim Do-jin. I mean their names are the same Kim Do-jin and Kim Pil-Du
Kim Doo-Jin's dad committed suicide from his huge debt (to mc dad) and his brother died in a car accident while working to support/raise money for their mother's treatment. After Kim Do-jin returned he took over in a form of donation.
Reio-san, if possible can you pls post some additional spoilers like, how Kim Do-Jin and MC became friends later on?
I'm not that far into the series and that part was portrayed in the manhwa's latest chapter only in illustrations
Definitely friends. Or companion to be exact. Btw, maybe I'll come here a few times to ask opinion for the novel's translation. Some may have realized that I used different terms than the manhwa. So I wanna know what you're thinking. Anyway, some nosy comments in a manhwa reading site made me take a peek at the last chapter. Spoiler: ENDING The ending is like a wedding after war party where both Yu Seong and Do Jin wear suits or tux and go together. Do Jin helped Yu Seong wear his suit. That's...
Spoiler It does give BL vibes...whelp, maybe the author is herself (or himself) secretly shipping them. Thanks for contributing to the thread.
https://tapas.io/series/i-woke-up-as-the-villain/info Names are the same but flipped to western equivalents.
Me, final conclusion on this one after seeing chapter 44 of manhua Spoiler Though I won't classify it as BL but let's just say it's Shounen ai(not that Shounen ai is not BL).After all, it does seem the two are shipped together quite a lot.
I like reading the manhwa but i've just reach out to the novelupdate page and saw shounen-ai sub plot. Is the novel really ending with such? im just being honest not a fan of shounen ai tried reading it got bored soon after.
For some reason, every time I click on the NU translations, I get redirected to some other site. Is anyone else experiencing this? I tried using a website blocking software to block the redirect websites but I still get redirected. Is anyone besides Maroon translating this?
