Trivia / Veritas

• Development Hell: The only thing keeping this series from being really marked as finished or cancelled is Yoon Joon-sik's willingness to write the 2nd Part of Veritas, but everything including the valuable artist Kim Dong-hoon are against his wishes. The series in its final chapters was going through an unpleasant decline in popularity, Booking Magazine's editorial from the publisher Haksan demanded Yoon Joon-sik rush the story because the series was given its forced date to be finished with already; that said, both men gave their best and fast-paced many events in the final volumes to at least try a decent closure, and yet Veritas still ended with open threads for the planned Part 2. Nowadays, Kim Dong-hoon is focused on drawing other series and Haksan doesn't seem interested in picking Veritas up again, only Yoon Joon-sik expressed his wishes to continue and thanks the readers in notes contained in the final volume for the series.
• Executive Meddling: Fans thinking the series suddenly went through some unexpected fast-paced events and twists in its final chapters are not entirely mistaken, Yoon Joon-sik does mention in the 10th Volume about being concerned and insecure about the editorial decision to shoehorn all plot progression that he previously planned to explain in more detail and in a more moderate pacing given that Veritas would go beyond the 10th Volume mark; the series was declining in popularity and Haksan decided that either they would progress with Veritas as fast as possible or it would eventually meet its cancellation.
