Super Genius DNA

Hello, this is Limido.

BackI was an undergraduate student, I briefly learned about poetry. At that time, my professor who was a poet once said after watching a science documentary (most likely NGC):

“Science is truly literary.”

As a science major who also loved literature and philosophy, it resonated with me a lot.

From then on, I wanted to write a science fiction novel—a story that retains the unique qualities of science fiction without disrupting the web novel format; a story that is reasonably professional, although it might fall short compared to real scientific educational books and contain some errors for the sake of literary progression. I wanted to write a story that observed and affirmed the various attributes of humanity amidst the cold and rigid image of science.

I thought I could write this novel well, but it turned out to be much more challenging than I expected. For a while, I felt like I was carrying a load beyond my capabilities. While there’s a sense of relief in finally laying it down, the feelings of regret and sadness are much stronger.

I learned a lot from this story. Following Ryu Young-Joon and Rosaline, I not only learned about the realm of fiction but also gained considerable knowledge in my field of study. It was demanding, but it was a rewarding and enjoyable journey. Because I gained so much from it, it was truly satisfying work, at least for me.

I genuinely hope that the journey with Ryu Young-Joon and Rosaline was enjoyable for the readers as well, and I would like to thank everyone who read along until the end from the bottom of my heart.

Special thanks to Mr. Im Hak-Du, who consulted on everything from the initial concept of this novel and deserves the position of second author if this were a research paper. Additionally, I would like to extend my special gratitude to my mother and girlfriend, who reviewed the manuscript’s technical details from a non-expert’s perspective and helped smooth out the story progression.

Lastly, as befitting a science fiction novel, I’d like to conclude this work by showing due respect to the great giant who provided me with an immense amount of inspiration and an endless supply of knowledge, all completely free of charge.

Thank you so much for supporting “Super Genius DNA.”
