Story

Title (3/5)

So far it does fit and I give credit for choosing a good word for your title which draws people in using a contradiction/irony. However in current standing I am not sure if the word "innocent" is better than "unimpeachable"
 
Foreward/Description (10/10)
 
I really liked it, from the way you put a dictionary definition for your title to the short descriptions for each character and your short and appropriate description. Well done. Perfect. 
 
Appearance (5/5)
 
Very nice. I have the feeling of rebirth which is essential and deep. Good choice of colors. 
 
Plot (9/15)
 
It's honestly too early into the story to determine anything but here are some pointers:
 
-Be careful when you're dealing with laws, prisons etc because different countries have their own types of punishment. I assume this is in Korea so note if a death penalty is a bit too severe for multiple robberies
-Also, I don't think cell mates are allowed to abuse each other without getting caught by the wardens
-This is a personal opinion: I feel that Jageun is instead Victoria's sister who got kidnapped and Victoria's hoobae is actually Lu Han. If I am indeed right, you might want to reconsider how you phrase your words, how you drop hints and overall how to construct your plot because I know you are trying to keep your readers in suspense. (which is a good thing but the suspense isn't strong enough unless you planned for a plot twist but let's skip this discussion or take it private ;-))
-Things to consider: the fact that Victoria has the power to investigate a lot of things; ie she will know most truth. Jaegeun eventually needs to say more about her background.
 
 
Originality (11/15)
 
Definitely interesting with a touch of maturity which is rare for EXO-based stories. Penalizing you here because (I really don't know how old you are really) but it lacks the level of maturity the writing is supposed to achieve to match the plot. Ie; sometimes Jageun doesn't sound/act like a 23 year old who has been through a lot in life. 
 
Language (13/20)
 
Tenses, punctuation and overall phrasing. Here are but a few I picked out:
 
 I heard mom screamed at the police officer 
I heard mom scream at the police officer
 
I was struggling hard to free myself from his clasp but the police officer was strong, strong enough to break a door with one hand. 
I was struggling hard to free myself from his clasp but the police officer was strong; strong enough to break a door with one hand.
 
 I'm alone in this prison cell, I'm scare. 
I'm alone in this prison cell and I'm scared.
 
Flow (5/10)
 
A bit lacking in terms of development for me; ie time in prison and losing of parents is a huge thing I would have liked to have more time spent there in development (of character)
 
Only 5 chapters and these much have happened:
-prison time over
-parents dead
-first love disappeared
-new life found
 
Characterization (5/10)
 
Connecting this to the above comments.
 
Jageun as the lead needs a lot more development. I still don't know anything about her past and how her family was to decide how she is supposed to react now that she found an older sister who cares a lot.
What exactly was she doing when her parents were captured? Studying or? You can't get into a good university if you don't have the basics. Also, note 5 years is a long time, and the psychological damage of prison. 
 
Victoria, noted on efforts on her story to success but why would you randomly take in a stranger as your sister; it has to be something more to Jageun than just "looking like her sister" 
 
Also; what exactly is Lu Han to Jageun; note and develop. 
 
Overall Enjoyment (6/10)
 
It wasn't a bad read at all; I sincerely hope the comments above aid in the future development of this story and feel free to reach out to me =)

Chapter 134: Thank you for taking the time to review my story oohkatsoo. I didn't mind the wait and getting the additional perspective was a good thing in the end. ;)
I have been warned about the too many characters too quickly thing in a previous review and have yet to try and fix that, but duly noted again. haha As for the capitalization issue, I think I was going for that fairly bizarre context (in English anyway) where you capitalize some of the terms when they refer to very specific named creatures (Namjoon's father as a Titan (Perses in his back story) versus titans as a race). Likewise for chimaera though that one was never meant to be capitalized. The only one I really had an issue with in writing was actually Cyclops and that was because my spell checker kept saying the lowercase spelling was wrong. >.> lol
I will certainly consider adding more descriptions or definitions for some of the harder to grasp terms, such as what a titan actually is, in the future. I was much better about doing that in my Norse mythology story to be honest. lol I'm pretty sure the time crunch to finish it before the deadline made me sloppy here.
The game they played was meant to sort of parallel a crude cross between more modern day football (in the US) as evidenced by the in-story name, which is a fairly barbaric sport to begin with, and the gladiator events of ancient Greece and Rome, which were very barbaric events in which the competitors often died. As for the sudden appearance of the monster, I'm not sure I can actually fix that one, or if I want to at the moment. I'll think it over and see what comes of it, but either way, I do appreciate the review all the same.
It's especially nice to confirm what I am able to do well in the story just as much as it's good to be aware of what can be smoothed out more. So again, thank you for the review. I hope my comment might be able to help explain things a bit more in turn but I shall credit you and the shop immediately. ^_^

Chapter 113: Thank you for the review! I didn't expect what you gave me, I was honestly thinking it would be a lot worse. I'll definitely keep in mind what you said about Title and Appearance. I did feel the same about the title being less focused on the main character when you mentioned it, so that's definitely something I'll work on. I might see if I can change the title to a more fitting one (but I'm soooo bad at titles >_<). Thank you again for taking the time to review my story. You don't know how much it means to me that you at least enjoyed it ^_^
