Not sure if it's stnds to its name.

I started this drama with zero hopes like literally zero. Wasn't interested to watch even when my friends kept suggesting me to watch saying it's good.

So i started watching this in 2022, ofc late to the party. So when I started it was okay the way scenes were going back and forth was confusing and then revealed that it's a comic World and all. The way things were unfolding was going good. I thought maybe i should have watched when my friends suggested me to watch. I judged this drama wrong( my thought).

And then after at episode 13-14( ep 7) i started feeling that, i wasn't wrong for thinking this drama won't be good. The dialogues, scenes became repetitive. Like every line is used multiple times which you get sick to keep listening to them. At first they mocked the cliché and cheesy lines and story and slowly the drama itself became cliche and cheesy. At first the FL was strong and she kept looking for haru to help her change the story.

The things should have been answered like how the story effects and changes if they are trying to change the stage.? And they showed that just because he gets wine spilled on his clothes he will be late to the stage? I mean if the things were go back to normal once the stage starts, why does the wine effect them at all? It was lame.

The romance between Ha ru and Dan Oh felt forced and Unnatural like we don't know why she started liking him and an entire 1.5ep(for 1hr ep) goes in dan oh crying for ha ru. And she keep calling Ha ru ha ru. It's so repetitive that i stated skipping their romance scenes and focus more on the side characters. And also if she was an mere extra why did she had more screen time. Every time she ends up in hospital and the heart aches. She runs and does activities which a heart disease patients aren't allowed to.

The likeable characters (off stage ofc) are sae-mi, do hwa, and sae-mi's boyfriend.

All characters were same till the end except haru got more lines after he got introduced as extra in comic.

The good character growth was of gyeong.

After skipping skipping and skipping and only seeing how the story is going, i finally finished it.

It can depend on what type of dramas you like. More of a cliché type or no. And this drama is so repetitive that at point I thought that i should just skip to last episode to see what happened and finish it but somehow skips and Ff button saved me.

There are so many things unexplained and unanswered.

Not going to re-watch
