SPOILERS

This is a spoiler for the ending because it’s seriously crazy so if you aren’t interested don’t look








I’ll try to explain this the best I can but the devil is basically the story operator, think of omniscient readers viewpoint and the readers(us) are similar to the constellations, if you haven’t read orv for context the story operator is pretty much the guide for the readers in the real world and the guide profits off the story and how us the readers enjoy the story so in order to create the best story that the readers will enjoy the devil pushes the “characters” to follow the original storyline, The devils original goal was to make the perfect that fits the criteria but because chaerin and everyone else gained a will and a soul the devil was no longer able to manipulate them and so once the devil confessed to Chaerin and the others the trust that they’re actually living in a webcomic that people in the real world are enjoying and reading, after knowing this now that all the “characters” gained a soul and will they were now able to die again and use their new knowledge of this situation to their advantage, so once they die again now that they remember everything, they use what they know to gain the readers on their side, the readers(us) want a happy ending so the readers end up turning on the devil and causes the devil to falter chaerin(hauisu) then returns to her original body in the real world(this is the part where it gets trippy) because once she wakes up the author included actual real life photos of a real person waking up in a hospital and proceeding with their life as a human, not a character, from here we didn’t see any of the characters and we weren’t really told what happened to them but it is showed toward the end in a youtube video that someone is listening to the song Jinyeon wrote and shared with chaerin which hints that the novel characters were living in the real world, but that’s all we got as of now. I really wanted to see a reunion for all the characters but i don’t think we will get any side stories


Anyways the ending was so fucking insane i found the symbolism in this so interesting and one thing i really liked is how the author conveyed that all though everyone is a main character in their life(chaerin in this case) in order to grow as a person and get through life you have to get to know the “side characters” in life because you may be your own main character, but so is everyone else, everyone has their own things to offer and their own soul and will, and it is showed through the characters that even though you won’t get along with everyone, they still helped you become who you are now, those who you’re willing to stand by and understand will do the same for you, you can’t go through life alone no matter how hard you try, once chaerin put in an effort to understand that the side characters aren’t just characters and people with their own perspectives it caused her to form connections and bonds with others which healed her when things were tough, she wasn’t alone anymore, she had people who were going to stand by her just as she did. I enjoyed the ending because it showed that now that the original “characters” had their own will and soul they were given a place in the real world, because they weren’t seen as simply just extras without faces, they proved themselves which in turn gave them a chance to prove they aren’t just extras, they are the main character in their world. This comes to show that you can just judge someone you don’t know because just like you, everyone has their own complex story and personality, everyone lived their own life and saw the world in a different perspective. The manhwa is seriously a masterpiece that is criminally underrated.
