This is so deep (⊙…⊙ ) Since the character dohyuk is based on the mc’s depression, the “dohyuk” who kidnapped the mc is basically the personification of his depression The fact that he’s constantly second guessing his attempts at escape (and lack thereof) mirrors how a person with depression might feel—being trapped by something while also unable to navigate their emotions. The redhair represents the people in his life who try and reach out to help him but are subsequently rejected because of the severity of mc’s depression—in other words, he’s feeling withdrawn from the people in his life because depression (dohyuk) has basically taken over. Theres also this motif of upside-down panels, mainly when “dohyuk” speaks, but idk what it means,,,maybe it has something to do with the original misery, but i havent read the book or watched the movie ╮(￣▽￣)╭ Anyway i cant believe we’re getting such a deep and meaningful story in a climate where stories like jinx are considered the golden standard ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
