It was interesting in the beginning of the episode to episode 4 or so but then..
I'll be honest about my comment about this drama. However,i do hope if anyone who likes this drama or hated it won't judged my honest comment. Because everyone's tastes and opinions nor interests isn't the same. So I'll just break down to the point. Basically this drama is about a girl named Eun Dan Oh whom realized she live in the world of comic and that her ending was only decided by the writer. She was a life threatening disease and really anxious to knew what will her life ahead of her despite her condition. She was purposedly ended up with Baek Kyung who is a famous guy pretty much all around the school that has this 'Bad Boy' manner and vibe. She was firstly,wants to follow how the storylines when and basically wants to do everything that the writer has planned for her. Which I do strongly agree she's followed. I thought the story will when smooth just like this tell the end,but i was so wrong.When she learned the truth that Baek Kyung doesn't have any romantic feeling towards her(he does but he don't want to admit),instead of facing the fact she has to followed the rules,she was totally against it. She was determined to set her own path,yes. She wants to change the ending. (That's why i stopped watching it cause i hated the fact that she's really stubborn at the same time). I really would finished the entire episodes if she really when with the storylines when but no,she was then meet up with a guy named Ha Ru whom is a none-existent character that made up by Dan Oh. And with all due respect,I am also will be honest that he doesn't really potrays the character well. I'm so sorry but it's the truth,as much as I really love Seok Woo(Ha Ru),but I seemed to having hard time to support his first male leading drama. It would be better if he didn't meddling in the situation,that basically ruined the storylines. He even got himself in a lot of troubles too just so that Dan Oh could change the ending once and for all without thinking the consequences. She was then falling in love with him rather than stick with Baek Kyung and I stopped there,I couldn't bear to watch it any further as I know the fact that I will get nothing but disappointment. I watch a lot of Kdramas but this is by far the worse one(미안..). I was expecting it to be different and purposedly made me satisfied but I'm not. I didn't even know why many peoples shipped them together,I couldn't even feel any chemistry between the two of them. As far I seen,I strongly think Baek Kyung is the best option because that's the way it's supposed to be.
High fiving to anyone who feels the same as me. I don't encouraged anyone to agree with me but I believe honesty in something is far important,I don't think this drama is worth watching if you don't want to watch a female lead with persistent,determined and cringe personality as well to be honest. It might makes you annoyed in some way. I did knew how the ending ends because someone spoiled it in twitter and FB,and it makes me despise this drama even more even of I don't want to. I hope that I won't stumbled in any drama which has the same storylines or etc,because I knew at some point that some new dramas that released somehow copying other dramas scenes and endings as well or much more.

It was going good until the past connection resurfaced
I really enjoyed the beginning 10 episodes until episode 12 happened, something just went wrong there as a story about characters in a comic book started turning into a past connection story. Even thou it was an entirely different comic book story yet writers still some how forced the past connection into the comic book world. I was soo mad here like Wtf !! This overused past connection trope just ruined the uniqueness of the story. And then comes another overused trope “the amnesia”. Haru’s sudden disappearance and then him appearing in the next episode with memory loss was soo cliche and boring. Then him remembering everything by the end of the episode was also cliche. the story became just like any typical kdrama and uniqueness of the plot was lost somewhere and I couldn’t regain my interest hence dropping it .The lead couple didn’t had much spark in my opinion. Something felt off about their pairing. The 2nd leads love triangle was more fun to watch . I was shipping yeo joo da with Do hwa rather than nam ju. But Do hwa giving up on Yeo joo da kinda made me sad. The cast was great but story somewhere lost the charm. There are too many plot holes don’t know if they fill those holes later in the show or not. For example why was haru always at school or they never show his home or family( till where i watched).
Maybe i will continue watching it again someday but don’t feel like watching it just now.

Stuck In A Comic Vortex of Boredom
What would you do, if you found out you were a boring character stuck in a High School comic forever?Well, I'd break out of high school for one thing, as I don't even really exist, so why the heck would I even stay there?
But, the FL decides to play by the rules (I'm not sure why). Is there nothing outside of this high school in this comic book world? I watched this a while ago, so can't remember if she decided to try to break out or not.
Anyway, the ML is so incedibly hot, that it might be worth staying just for him. If the FL wasn't so darn ordinary and had no personality (I want to clarify that you can be innocent and a good person and still have personality), then this interesting story premise might have gone somewhere, but as it is, the High School setting and the blandness of all the characters (sorry, Rowoon, but good looks don't replace personality for me), just ruined any interest I might have had in this drama.
Of all the settings, and of all the characters you could have built this story idea on, these were what the comic creator chose? Wasted opportunity. I do remember the cinematography being very artsy and intriguing, and the washed-out colours went with the colourless setting and characters.

Overrated. Teeny-bopper bubblegum comedy
This... is so overrated. At the moment, I couldn't get past ep 10. First, there's the trio of scrawny guys everyone in school seem to fawn over. I didn't believe even once ANYONE would fall for these papier-mache built doofuses. Then there's the wasted potential of Dan Oh. The producers could've taken her cynicism to great comedic heights, but instead she falls into the same tropes she's mocking the "stage" characters over in the first place. People have been saying this show was hilarious - good for them. It wasn't funny for me at all. It was excruciating to watch and I kept holding out to see if it gets better but ultimately decided to just stop. Maybe I'll finish this later but I'll have to watch in small doses.Was this review helpful to you?
From the First Ep, I loOoOOve it!!
I really really like the storyline and the actors, like it's so creative??? Although i'm late to watching this, but it's amazing.Although i've only watched 2 episodes, but I know what i'm talkin' bout'-
So, I had a lot of friends saying this is the one kdrama i'll love, at first I didn't believe them, but I'm already in love!!
The plot, the actors, the acting, chefs kiss!!
I love this series so much because it gives you butterflies, but also laughter!
I actually really am out of words, like who ever wrote this is the one of the best writers ever.
I'd really recommend this so stop reading and go stream!!!
Sincerely, a happy girl :D

Misleading Synopsis + Cringe + Boring as hell + Typical school Kdrama + Failure
I love how the synopsis says she is supposed to be a support character while being totally presented as a main lead. Good job writers.From the beginning of this 1st episode I could foresee anything this drama held for its own future. A total bundle and collection of all possible cliches you can find in any set-in-school romance stories whereas you have this supposedly support..oops, I mean main female lead who is supposed to be the support lead (then who tf is the main lead?) acting like it's the end of the world for her just because a lot of confusing and magical things happen to her EVEN THOUGH SHE IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE SUPPORT CHARACTER XD.
I mean, I only watched 30 minutes of this and saw through every single line...plus the cringe set up for a youthful school romance love triangle or whatever reverse harem.
Everything is stereotypical. "Badass" and "attractive" male students walk up the hallway?! Check -> Have all side characters act like NPCs and drool over them or make way for them while another irrelevant NPC crashes with one of them.
Want to make female lead seem relevant even though she is supposed to be irrelevant since she is a support lead?! CHECK -> Make her have a heart disease plus a one-sided crush with one of the male leads.
Everything just comes back to that damn synopsis. She is a support character that fights over her fate to become a main one? MAKE HER LOOK AND BEHAVE SO or at least make it interesting you buffalos.
Only dull and over-the-top kdrama fans will give this an above average rating. Truly sad.
My judgement for this drama is.......0! I give this a 0/10.

Finalmente terminei este título, após muita enrolação. No começo me empolguei muito com a história, já que se tratava de um universo dentro de uma história em quadrinhos, e devorei os primeiros 10 episódios bem rápido. Porém, assim que as coisas começaram a mudar e Ha Ru foi revelado, sinto que deu uma decaída na qualidade. Era fofo o romance entre ele e Eun Dan Oh, mas a história ficou um pouco perdida neste ponto. Em vários episódios a gente conseguia apenas sentir a insegurança quanto ao que o autor iria fazer em seguida, algumas brigas de triângulo amoroso e nada mais.Então, na reta final, algumas coisas começaram a ficar interessantes. Descobre-se a história do primeiro livro em quadrinhos, e é muito mais empolgante (talvez essa tenha sido a intenção, o autor os colocou em uma história clichê monótona após todo o drama da anterior), há um conflito para descobrir quem matou Eun Dan Oh. Eu adoraria que Yeo Joo Da tivesse se tornado mais corajosa e ido atrás de uma mudança de cenário com Do Hwa, e me decepcionou muito ela apenas aceitar seu destino, embora ela não fosse totalmente indiferente ao personagem que deveria ser seu par romântico. Tinham um bom sub-enredo, mas escolheram mantê-lo como estava, então acabei aceitando eventualmente que não haveria chances para Do Hwa.
É inegável que Baek Gyeong evoluiu demais ao longo do drama, e ele certamente foi meu personagem favorito em questão de desenvolvimento e amadurecimento. A verdade é que este é um dos únicos personagens que a evolução é tão grande quanto a de Ha Ru - em questões de conseguir uma história e uma consciência, e posteriormente melhorar sua personalidade para algo diferente do programado.
Foi um drama muito bom para passar o tempo e morrer com as cenas fofas da Eun Dan Oh com o Ha Ru.

A história do "palco" é uma cópia barata e mal feita de BOF/Hana Yori Dango, é bem bobinha, brega, clichê e sem graça. Não tiveram a dignidade de pelo menos mostrar uma amizade forte como os F4, a relação de "amizade" dos A3 é bem superficial. Se a intenção era fazer uma sátira aos clichês de BOF/HYD não colou, não teve graça.
Quanto aos personagens:
- A protagonista é maravilhosa, não tenho dúvidas, sua interpretação foi muito boa e sua personagem é realmente muito fácil de gostar.
- O Haru parece um robô é bem irritante de assistir como ele se movimenta.
- Amei o Do Hwa, coitadinho (injustiçado).
No final você tem a estranha sensação de ter visto muito sem ter visto nada! Talvez este drama funcione melhor para uma faixa etária de até 17-18 anos. Sinceramente, se você já assistiu a dramas escolares como: When We Where Young, My Youth, Atention, Love!, Sassy, Go Go não perca seu tempo com este drama.

Au début je m'attendais à pas grand chose mais je voulais me regarder un drama assez light, type rom—com. Alors au début ça part très bien: des personnages intéressants, une histoire originale, une prise de vue assez intéressante du type narrateur personnage (Eun Dan Oh).Et puis soudain ça retombe: pleins de choses tombent à la trap, le monde créé s'essouffle.
Partie spoiler :
Les ambitions de Eun Dan Oh hop évaporé pour ne vivre qu'à travers une romance.
Haru un personnage qui n'évolue pas et qui ne prend pas plus de profondeur.
Des actions/discussions intéressantes dans les premiers épisodes qui ne sont pas utilisés ensuite.
À pleins d'écart j'aurais aimé des relations plus poussées que les romances.
Ect
Heureusement que l'acteur jouant Baek Kyung était là pour tenir un peu la barque malgré un personnage pas simple à tenir. C'est le seul qui m'a un peu ému.
Du côté de certaines intrigues secondaires ça allait aussi.
Dans l'ensemble un drama en dent de scie, je n'ai pas lu le mawha mais je pense que le principal soucis de cohérence du monde vient de là donc ça aurait mérité d'avoir de meilleures bases malgré une idée originale car même si ça pourrait être associé à W par le thème, le traitement est totalement différent.
Côté OST c'est assez basique rien qui n'a vraiment attiré mon oreille mais rien non plus de trop ennuyant à entendre.
Clairement peu de chances que je le revois. Et si c'est le cas je m'arrêter au ⅞ ème episode.

Bagus di awal
Pendapat awamPada awalnya saya nonton ini karena rating yang bagus dan teman saya yang terus merekomendasikan drama ini, saya sebenarnya suka drama romance namun ini sudah lumayan berlebihan.
Jadi pada awal cerita sangat menarik ketika dan oh mendapati dirinya bukan pada dunia nyata dan hanya menjadi pemeran pendukung. Menariknya adalah ketika dan oh mencoba mencari cara untuk mengubah cerita dirinya sendiri dalam komik, dan membuatnya menjadi gadis yang lebih kuat. Namun setelah haru berhasil membantunya mengubah jalan cerita, episode episode selanjutnya sangat datar. Hanya berisi romansa remaja yang berlebihan, dan oh yang tujuan hidupnya hanya mencintai haru dan bahkan tidak memperdulikan dirinya sendiri. Bahkan ketika dan oh harus dioperasi malah tidak terjadi apa apa, itu sangat tidak logis. Pada awlnya saya tidak suka baek kyung karena sikap kasarnya namun ditengah cerita menjadi mendukungnya. Mungkin untuk fans roowon mereka akan mendukung haru. Namun secara logika endingnya berantakan dan terburu buru.
Bahkan episode 1 jam bisa dijadikan 30 menit karena alur yang tidak jelas dan romance yang berlebihan. Mungkin beberapa orang menganggapnya manis tapi tidak bagi saya. maaf

Sa mga first episodes sobrang nagustuhan ko siya, so I was really expecting a lot from this drama. I got high hopes from this and I was even thinking na deserve niyang mapunta sa top list of fave dramas ko. Why? 'Cause the plot was so unique. I loved the uniqueness of the drama, and I still do naman. Pero sinayang nila ehh. The plot was so unique pero they did not manage to maintain the quality of the drama. Sayang.Pero during the middle part, I got so disappointed na. I should've not expected a lot. I love Dan-O's character pero there were times na nainis ako sa kanya, because of her selfishness and she always depend on Haru. I liked her because of her strong attitude despite having an illness pero there were times na mapapa-ehh ka na lang sa ugali niya. She wanted to change her fate pero puro siya Haru Haru Haru pagdating sa middle up until the end. Also, she helps Juda a lot, pero wala siyang ginagawa about a friend niya na nambubully kay Juda???
About Haru, I really love his character. With Gyeong naman, I liked that there was a development in his character. Pero can't help but to say how harsh he really was.
Though I love the actors so muuuch. I commend them for their great acts. Most especially Jaewook, Rowoon,and Hyeyoon.
Pero here's more disappointing, the ending itself. They wanted to change their fate, hindi ba? Then anong silbi nung story if in the end, parang wala namang nangyari? Yes, they're just in a comic world. Pero hindi ba about changing fate yung drama? How come there were no changes at all? Paano yun, "bye Haru kitakits na lang sa next story ni author labyu see you next story." Ganun? I mean gets ko naman na nasa comic world lang sila pero ang nonsense lang ng mga ginawa nila to change their fates if in the end, di din naman nila naachieve yun.
Tapos akala ko irereveal nila kung sino yung author, pero ayos lang naman din kahit di nila nireveal.
This is just my opinion, we all have different ones. This is what I feel the drama.
