    Basically, it's just about 7 novels from Korea with Destructive Power to the point that they were called "7 Forbbiden", because reading them will drive people.....well, no word to describe whatever lasting damage you will get after finish reading them.
    Invisible Dragon is one of them.
    And then there is an Unnamed 8 "Forbidden" being "The works of Kim Won Ho: Just the fact that it was written by this man makes the novel a forbidden text.". The guy became a "Forbidden" himself, instead of just being known for his works.

    No they are just really bad novels. The kind that make you feel stupider after reading.

    They are the best novels that someone can read on the internet. Many people can't handle the greatness achieved by those novels and break down before being able to finish them
    I advise a steady, calm and patient mind backed up by a lot of novels read before giving those marvelous novels a try.
