ROUGH IDEA AS TO WHEN SEASON 4 WILL RETURN?\nA. BEFORE SUMMER IS OVER... HOPEFULLY.\nQ. THE ORIGINAL WEBNOVEL IS STILL IN PRODUCTION. ARE YOU PLANNING TO PRODUCE THE WEBTOON VERSION FOR THE ENTIRETY OF IT?\nA. I NORMALLY THINK OF THE WORST-CASE SCENARIO LIKE BJORN DOES. AS OF NOW, THE BEST I CAN DO IS FOCUS ON MY CURRENT WORKLOAD.\nIN HOW MANY YEARS DO YOU THINK THIS SERIES WILL CONCLUDE?\nA. ONE... TWO... THREE... FOUR... FIVE... I'M SCARED TO KEEP COUNTING.\nQ. WILL THERE BE ANY ONLINE OR OFFLINE EVENTS IN THE FUTURE?\nA. I BELIEVE CNC REVOLUTION WILL BE IN CHARGE OF THOSE.\n\nWE'LL BE BACK SOON.\nN-NOT THAT I MISS YOU OR ANYTHING...\nACTUALLY, I DO.\n[ABOUT ADAPTATION]\nQ. ARE YOU GOING TO EMPHASIZE THE GRIMNESS OF THE SERIES EVEN MORE?\nA. EACH SCENE AND EPISODE HAS DIFFERENT ATMOSPHERE THAT GOES WELL WITH IT, AND WE'LL DO OUR BEST TO DELIVER JUST THAT.\nQ. WHO DO YOU SHIP WITH BJORN?\nA. HONESTLY, EACH PERSON HAS DIFFERENT OPINIONS... DEPENDING ON WHICH EPISODES THEY WORK ON.\nQ. WILL THE ROUND TABLE MEETING CONTINUE IN SEASON 4?\nA. THE ROUND TABLE MEETING WILL BE IN THE FIRST EPISODE OF THE NEW SEASON. THE LION... (SPOILER ALERT)\nYOU MAKE MY TRIPS A LOT BETTERRRR!\nQ. HOW MANY MEMBERS ARE THERE IN TEAM THE JICK? WHAT ARE YOUR ROLES?\nA. 9 PEOPLE. ROLES INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: SCENARIO, STORYBOARD, ART, PRODUCTION, MARKETING, AND ACCOUNTING.\nQ. SO EXACTLY WHAT IS ‘TEAM THE JICK’ IN CHARGE OF?\nA. WE DRAFT THE ADAPTATION SCENARIO AND WORK ON THE STORYBOARD. THE PRODUCER REVIEWS IT AND DELIVERS IT TO THE ART TEAM.\n\nQ. WHY IS YOUR TEAM CALLED ‘TEAM THE JICK?’\nA. THERE IS A FANTASY NOVEL CALLED [GOD’S KNIGHT]. ONE OF THE CHARACTERS WAS CALLED JICK.\nQ. YOU’RE WORKING ON SEVERAL TITLES. HOW DO YOU MEET THE DEADLINES?\nQ. WILL THE STORY AND ART TEAM STAY THE SAME?\nA. THERE DEFINITELY IS A SHORTAGE OF EXPERIENCED WORKERS IN ALL CRITERIA. IF YOU’RE CONFIDENT IN YOUR SKILLS AND LOOKING FOR AN OPPORTUNITY TO SHOWCASE YOUR TALENT, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO APPLY!\nBEHELA! REMEMBER THAT.\n[ABOUT CREATION & DIRECTING]\n. HOW DO YOU COME UP WITH MONSTER DESIGNS?\nQ. HOW HAVE YOU IMPROVED YOUR DIRECTING?\n\nA. IT MAY SOUND CLICHÉ, BUT READING AND WATCHING A LOT HELPS GREATLY.\nQ. WHICH SCENES WERE THE MOST IMPRESSIVE, AND WHICH WERE THE MOST DIFFICULT TO WORK ON?\nA. THE FIRST TIME THE LION MASK USED AIR OF HOSTILITY, ALONGSIDE ALL ROUND TABLE MEETINGS.\nQ. WHEN YOU TOOK ON THE JOB TO PRODUCE THE WEBTOON VERSION OF THE SERIES, WHAT WERE THE THOUGHT THAT CAME TO YOUR MIND AFTER READING THE ORIGINAL NOVEL?\nA. THE ANIMATION PLAYED IN MY HEAD. I WANTED TO DELIVER AT LEAST 25% OF THAT TO THE READERS.\nQ. WHAT ARE SOME REGRETS YOU HAVE ABOUT YOUR WORK?\nA. WE MUST MAKE QUITE A FEW COMPROMISES ALONG THE WAY TO MEET THE WEEKLY DEADLINE. WE HAVE REGRETS ALL THE TIME, SINCE IT ALWAYS FEELS LIKE WE COULD HAVE DONE MORE.\nA. OTHERS HAVE WORKED ON SOME EPISODES, BUT ORM WAS IN CHARGE OF MOST OF IT.\nHE DIRECTED WHEN HE COULDN’T. TOWARDS THE MIDPOINT-END OF THE SEASON, MOCCASIN JOINED THE TEAM AND WORKED ON THE STORYBOARD.\nQ. DO YOU THINK READING THE NOVEL FIRST MAKES IT MORE FUN TO READ THE WEBTOON?\nA. WE ARE CERTAINLY HAVING MORE FUN THAT WAY. BUT ONE OF OUR GOALS IS TO MAKE SURE THOSE WHO HAVEN’T READ THE NOVEL CAN STILL ENJOY OUR WORK.\nTHE\nPLEASE SUBSCRIBE!\n[ABOUT MERCHANDISE & FUTURE PRODUCTIONS]\nQ. WILL THERE BE MERCHANDISE (FIGURES, ART BOOKS, ETC.) OR PRINTED COPIES IN THE FUTURE?\n\nA. PLEASE MAKE INQUIRIES TO THE PRODUCTION COMPANY.\nQ. WILL THERE BE AN ANIMATION?\nA. I HOPE SO! WE'LL DO OUR BEST... AND MAYBE IT WILL HAPPEN.\nQ. CAN YOU TELL US THE GENRE OF THE NEW SERIES YOU'RE WORKING ON?\nA.
