Features: What does anarchism in the novel refer to? It is a metaphor that challenges the governmentism and centralization in the novel. This metaphor is undeniably nihilistic at a higher level. This challenge is novel, targeting the novel itself. Choi Su-jik yearns not for the surface-level story world, but for the transformation of the novel. Many writers have long dreamed of transforming the novel and have used various external tools to attempt such transformations, but Choi Su-jik employs a unique method. He does not introduce new props or devices, but instead gradually exposes the flaws within the novel's internal world.
