Description

Jihoon Hyunwoon, was a music composer of a studio before one day, Gates arrived and brought monsters from other worlds. Unfortunately, he didn't awake any power at all and remain as such even into restabilization era. As he lived in a despondent state as there was no place for someone like him to make a living in a world that has too little need for music.One day, recalling why he stepped into the path of music composing in the first place. He decided to recreate the melody that inspired him to take this path. However, he didn't expect that one song from the long past ago would suddenly carry power as he is immediately dragged into another world. After this transpire of events, Jihoon decided that he will get his life together and build a better future for himself and those aroundNOTE: This isn't a typical power-fantasy where the main character simply getting stronger and that's it. I intend to actually develop and flesh-out the impact of having sudden life changing events can be and how one should try to live with that. So please, if you're dissatisfied, don't just go and drop a bad rating just because it didn't immediately caught your attention or thrown into middle of action.NOTE again: Self-deprecating outlook and view of self as though fiction made real.

    The story switches between Present and Past tense every other sentence, sometimes in the same sentence. Constantly, not just a few times. I also saw a few Present Perfects mixed in (that should all be the same base tense of the story).
    Some mistakes are fine, I'm used to reading volunteer-translations so I'm quite tolerant. But this is something else, this violates the very foundations of the English language and it does so really all the time, it is not mistakes, it is how the entire story has been written.
    Usually grammar alone can only influence a rating, but in this case it is just too extreme, how can someone read this without going crazy? When every sentence triggers ones "this feels very wrong" feeling enjoying a story is too much of a challenge for me, and I'm not a native speaker myself.
    To the Author: You should see my rating as a TODO, not a final one for the story. As it is though it is simply not readable.
    PLEASE fix your tenses, give me a ping when you did and I will revise my rating too. Simple Past is the best standard to use, in which case you would not have any Present Tense whatsoever apart from inside quoted direct speech. If you insist, by all means, you can also choose Present Tense for the story, but then be consistent and decide which one it is going to be.
    Apart from that, if you fix the tense issue it will still have plenty of issues from your apparent unfamiliarity with the language, but those would be "normal" mistakes that one can live with if the story itself is fine.
