I Won
The 'implantation process' was... weird.
When Han Jiwon agreed to the strange creature's offer, he hadn't known what to expect, but the creature putting... something inside of him wasn't what he expected.
It inserted some of that strange black tar that made up his body into his brain, and when it did so, things turned strange.
For starters, he was shocked to realize that the corrupt Mana no longer affected him. But more than that, it was the presence within his mind.
The presence of the Abyssal Scrounger.
Moreover, the weight on his mind was heavy. He felt like it was encroaching on his very soul.
In his heart, he knew that if it wanted, it could take control of his body, and there would be nothing he could do about it. And yet, it hadn't.
He could, though, feel what it wanted. It didn't speak, and yet, he felt its intentions loud and clear.
Find Osho.
