Another day,Korea another Stephen King hint about The Dark Tower.

Over the past week the horror author has been posting regularly about his eight-book series on X (formerly Twitter). King started by sharing fan art of main character Roland Deschain with a comment indicating the Gunslinger's world is still there, and then followed that up over the weekend with a suggestion that the Crimson King — the series' main antagonist — is still alive.
