One thing that I really liked about this drama is how the story unfolds. After thinking for sometime I can say that the story wasn't predictable. I thought there would be a happy ending indicating an end to all the sufferings the characters had faced but then the ending wasn't happy, I'd say that the drama ended at a happy moment. The characters in the comic are still controlled by the writer and don't have their free will. It's just that the drama ended when dan oh met haru, to kinda depict a happy ending feeling. But considering how the writer erases insignificant extra characters danoh and haru could be erased anytime and might not even end up in the next comic. Baek Kyung and Do hwa were my favorites. The ending was realistic cause from the start we were inclined to think that because of fate and destiny they would be able to break free from there character but in the end they couldn't they were just able to make tiny changes and enjoy life in the shadow. It made us hope that characters would escape the comic world but that didn't happen there're still stuck there used as mere puppets. Overall it was really tragic if you put a deeper thought to it. But then what if this was a lie all along, we were shown that Haru suddenly becomes aware of himself in the trumpet creeper, and also he is the only character that is able to change the stage there's no definite answer as to why he can do that stuff. I feel he has an extra advantage after disappearing for a couple of times he magically appears again. How? Is that really destiny? I have a theory that he wasn't in fact character from the comic infact he was a real human who entered the comic by mistake or intentionally. Why are only some characters becoming self aware? Why did Baek kyung become self aware after being told about the shadow and stage several times cause nam ju and other characters were also told that they were mere characters in a comic but that wasn't enough to make them self aware? I feel that the characters who actually became self aware of themselves were infact humans. After that comic ended many weren't in the new comic, maybe they were transferred back to the real world. But dan oh and Haru stayed cause they loved each other and wanted to meet and do romantic stuff. Atleast that's what I believe.
