SIU stands for Slave. In. Utero; it is the pen name of the author of Tower of God (신의 탑). His real name is Lee Jong Hui. He was born on 29th May, 1986.
SIU majored in Art Education in college and later undertook South Korea’s mandatory military service. There he met a sun-im (top) that also liked manhwa so he began to draw altogether manhwa. He drew any character arising out of his mind.
According to him the story "was about a guy who entered the Tower chasing a girl that was everything to him and the Tower examined the boy”. Concluding his military service, he had filled up 10 sketchbooks. The argument over those notebooks served him to create 'Tower of God'.
For more than 6 months, he had raised his work on his at Naver’s Challenge League until Naver contacted him and asked if he wanted to publish Tower of God officially. That’s how Tower of God debuted and won fame in a short time.
SIU regularly posts descriptions of random characters appearing in Tower of God in his blog and the Naver’s Cafe. The extra content acts as expansion material for Tower of God, a great story within Talse Uzer.
He regularly blogs biographies of random characters who feature in ToG or have yet to. It's all part of his extensive worldbuilding scenario: Tower of God is merely a part of his grand Talse Uzer Story. The universe of Talse Uzer is governed by a set of laws and history can never be changed. As such, there is a very finite aspect to Talse Uzer Stories.
“Karanlık hayatıma o girdikten sonra, uzandığım her yerde parıltılı bir gökyüzü oluştu.” Diyor Bam. Her şeyini verdiği kız hakkında konuşurken. Onu bulma uğruna bütün tehlikeleri göze alarak kuleye tırmanmayı seçiyor Bam. İşte işler o zaman karışmaya başlıyor. Çünkü Bam kuleyi tırmanmaya başlarken kendi hakkında bilmediği sırları öğrenecek ve kendini kimsesiz, önemsiz sanırken aslında öyle olmadığını öğrenecek. Bam aslında kim?
“Harika bir çizgi roman. Çizgi roman 2020 yılında internette karşıma çıktı ve okumaya başladım. Baya bir bölüm okudum. Bu nedenle hikayeye çok hâkimim. Çizgi romana D&R da denk geldim ve çok mutlu oldum. Hemen ilk iki çizgi romanını satın aldım ve okudum. Hem sayfa kalitesi çok güzel hem de çizimler harika. Okurken insan keyif alıyor. Aynı şekilde konu bakımından farklı olması da çizgi romanı okurken insanın merakını artırıyor.”
i really enjoyed and for sure i'll watch its anime too.
baam, whose best friend lahel has been lost in a tower, decides to find her no matter what. But the thing he doesnt know is, it is not that easy. Only the ones who have been selected by the tower can enter, but he entered by himself, thats why he is called "irregular."
in this tower, you can obtain anything you want, as long as you pass all the exams. and your rivals are monsters, indeed :D Each floor of the tower has an exam to send people to the next step. in the first floor, even though he is an irregular, the princess of the tower gives baam the "black march" (the powerful sword, which is really popular among other contestans.) But why? he is not strong enough, he is an irregular and doesnt know anything about the tower, why the princess selected him?
All the exams were really nice, making you excited about what will happen. But i must say, (SPOİLER) killing 200 people and finding a group in 5 mins made me remember the squid game, but i guess tower of god was written far before.
Anyway, in the 3th floor baam isnt even allowed to make the exam, its announced that he has made it even before trying it. But why? Who is baam exactly? we'll see in the next books...definitely recommended!
Bam, hayatı boyunca karanlık bir mağara, kirli bir giysi ve ulaşılamayan bir ışıktan başka bir şey görmemiş bir çocuktur. Işığın içinden, Rachel isimli biri ona doğru gelince hayatı değişir. Rachel ile yakın arkadaş olduktan sonra, ondan dış dünya hakkında çeşitli şeyler öğrenir. Ancak Rachel, kuleye tırmanmak için onu terketmesi gerektiğini söyleyince, Bam’ın dünyası başına yıkılır. Ne olursa olsun onun peşinden gitmeye yemin ederek gözünü kuleye diker ve bir mucize gerçekleşir.
Böylece, kule tarafından seçilmeyip kapıları kendi başına açan genç bir çocuk olan Bam’ın yolculuğu başlar.
