Hello, this is SIU.
Although I was working hard to resume posting Tower of God in November, while I working on the chapters for the return, I started experiencing some pain in my right arm, so I went to get it checked out at a hospital. The results at the time weren't serious so I had planned on resuming a few weeks later than planned, but the pain had worsened, so I went to a bigger hospital for a second opinion.
After being tested over the span of a few weeks, it seemed that there is another issue, and received a diagnosis that if I ignore this issue much longer I would not only experience pain and discomfort during work but even in daily life. The doctor's opinion was that in order to avoid such outcome, I would need to not strain myself like before for another half a year to prevent my body from deteriorating beyond repair and to return to normal.
Faced with this scenario, when I heard that I would have to take a break for another half a year, I was faced with a big dilemma. I already had over 10 chapters made for the come back, and I had readers waiting for me to come back, along with a studio to maintain. The thought of giving my work a negative impact if the hiatus went on for much longer also weighed on me. I tried to see if I would be able to come back while still reducing work load somewhat, but the pain persisted, and if I had returned like this but failed to put out a proper work or going back to a hiatus would be a failure in me taking care of myself as a human and rather unwise as an author. As such, after a few weeks of deliberation, I finally decided to extend the hiatus.
It's so hard to do this, but once again I must apologize to all of you who have been waiting so long, and must ask that you wait just a bit longer. It was a difficult struggle for me too because I had to let all these chapters sit and this situation was going to disappoint a lot of you guys, but at the end of the day, time passes faster than you think, so I decided to trust the recommendation once more. However, I am once again so sorry that I cannot give you guys good news especially in times like these, and this is a disappointment for me as well. I will do my best to rest up and recover so I can come back at my best.
Although my drawing arm will still be out of commission for some time, but I will try to bring you guys some joy with some help from others around me in various non-intrusive ways in a positive manner.
I will be back after about 6 months.
As always, stay happy, stay healthy,
Thank you.
PS: I am truly sorry that for the same reasons as above that I was unable to make an accurate announcement in regards to my uncertain bodily condition. I am sorry.
