However, some fans have mixed reactions to the teaser as it shows the idol wielding a rifle instead of a sword, which differs from the original webtoon character.

"no hate, i love js, but she's portraying lee jihye, right? WHY THE GUN? 😭 JIHYE NEVER HELD A GUN NEITHER IN THE NOVEL NOR MANHWA! 😭 her sponsor is Maritime God of War, and for pete's sake, her personal attributes are scarred sword demon and monarch of the sea. 😭 how come???" commented one netizen.

"A gun? A f***ing gun???? And she's supposed to be Lee Jihye? Lee Jihye with a f***ing gun??????? Are they kidding me? Who's that writing the f***ing script tell him to put the pen down please. This is a catastrophe. Lee Jihye is swordmaster she's supposed to have a SWORD A SWOOORD" added this individual on X.
