Alternative Character Interpretation: In-Universe his fame as Weed and notoriety as Lee Hyun give way to this:.While there are a number of girls crushing on Lee Hyun (even though they are aware he's a money grubbing miser and a scammer), the reason they like him is because despite his bad qualities he's the ultimate family man who's willing to sacrifice anything for his loved ones, knows how to cook, clean, repair appliances and houses, and do all other household chores, and is always ready to help his friends in a pinch. Anti-Hero: Weed walks the thin line between this and being a Pragmatic Hero, as while he's somewhat well meaning, he's also driven by a near infinite greed, and generally only sees being "good" as useful tool to trick people into helping him get more wealth.Thus begins the adventures of Weed, The Legendary Moonlight Sculptor. Undeterred, Weed vows to grind twice as hard, hunting for hours on end, practicing production skills of all types, and do whatever it takes to make even one more gold coin. Unfortunately once again for Weed, his initial plan to get rich by gaining a legendary hidden class soon gets him stuck with the "Moonlight Sculptor" class, as "art" classes are famous for being terrible at gold farming of pretty much all types. While most of his earnings go to Loan Sharks to finally pay off the last of his family's debts, Lee-Hyun realizes he can use online gaming to fund his family's future, and soon jumps into the new virtual reality game known as "Royal Road" to build up the legacy of "Weed" once again. Lee-Hyun's luck begins to turn around however on his 18th birthday, where his decision to auction off his Continent of Magic character in a Real Money Trade and focus on working (now that he can do it legally), sparks a bidding war that concludes at 3,090,000,000 won (about 3,000,000 usd). This dedication to profit was also reflected through his one hobby, an immensely popular game known as "Continent of Magic", where his in-game character "Weed" rose through sheer grinding to become the most well known and feared. Forced to work throughout his childhood and adolescence, he's gone through a rough lifestyle that has made him completely devoted towards making money to take care of his sister and sickly grandmother. Lee-Hyun, the protagonist of the story, is a stingy, greedy, but hardworking young man suffering a life of poverty and debt after the untimely death of his parents. Season Two consists of chapters 53 to 117 adapting up to the 4th chapter of Volume 5, and Season Three consists of chapters 118+ continuing beyond where the previous season left off.
