### Summary
Based exclusively on reader reactions to the newly released chapter, the "Killing Stalking" manhwa unexpectedly resurfaced with an update in 2025, causing widespread shock and disbelief among readers who considered the series concluded. Comments express profound surprise ("Killing Stalking update was not in my 2025 bingo card," "Am I seeing things? Killing Stalking update in 2025???") and describe the notification as a "jumpscare." The update is identified as a "Special Episode" or "New Year's Special," leading to confusion about its nature and content, with readers questioning if it's a side story or new content ("Will be back? Is it a side story?"). The unexpected return evokes strong, conflicted nostalgia, with many readers acknowledging the story's traumatic impact ("this traumatising manhwa," "throwback to smth I don't wanna read again") while also expressing a desire to reread it. The uploader specifically notes replacing a poorly translated fan version with the official Lezhin release of this special chapter. The overwhelming sentiment is astonishment at the series' return long after its perceived ending.
