And there’s nothing wrong with it. I’m grateful that a lot of good novels came out of because of that. Thinking that one author “stagnated” a genre of literature is…. foolish? Solo leveling had a more positive impact than a negative one.
1. It introduced a lot of people to webnovels.
2. One of the first successful WN manhwa.
3. Literally the first WN to have an anime adaption. As most webnovels become light novels then go get adapted.
4. The first WN to have a game adaption.
The list goes on and on and do I have to say more? Solo leveling did more to the webnovel community than most did. And I wish a hundred of solo leveling exists so the whole world knows of WN existence.
