‘Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint’ Is Attacking the Most Well-Written Female Characters Through Its Live-Action Adaptation

Lee Jihye is an important character who grows along with Dokja in the series. Her sense of justice, courage, and pride are all embodied in her combat style. Using a sword to defend herself, even when she seemed like a weak and naive child, Jihye grew to be one of the strongest survivors and a proud member of Kim Dokja’s Company.
The live adaptation decided to just replace her sword with a gun without any proper basis. This isn’t just an aesthetic change as it fundamentally alters her character, fighting style, and relationships.
