Transmigrating In The Ruined Family

VineFine
Kang Jo-hoon is a broke, jobless Korean man with a degree in politics and economics—and a lot of bitterness. After rage-posting a sarcastic review on a low-rated fantasy novel called The Demon King’s Tea Time, he wakes up inside its crumbling world. Now stuck in a ruined kingdom with no powers, no allies, and a "family" that’s barely surviving, Jo-hoon or rather, Kairon, must use his brain instead of brawn to stay alive. His “father” is a former noble stripped of status, his “sister” is too kind for this world, oh and let's not talk about the "mother" and the once-great capital is now a ghost town haunted by debt, monsters, and betrayal. Armed with only his modern knowledge, sharp tongue, and twisted sense of humor, Jo-hoon takes on the impossible: rebuild the fallen house, outwit nobles and demons, and maybe—just maybe—turn this tragic fantasy into his own empire. A bad story can always be rewritten.
