What do you think? Will this work?

Nobody really knows, but everyone's skeptical it will work at all. There's been a lot of claims on scientists discovering the next best thing but they're almost always outed as fake. So yeah, I want to believe, but I doubt it.

Yeah, and there is surprisingly little hype from South Korea itself. If it were legit the university and give would be celebrating

I think it's good that there isn't much hype. Until a reputable source actually does replicate the paper, there's not much to celebrate yet. Wouldn't want people to celebrate something that could turn out to be fake.
