I LOVED THE STORY. Probably bc it wasn't a school romance cus I just feel clichy when it comes to rom-vom lovey dovey school romance stuffs um yeah everyone have own preferences and I prefer how the story went, I seriously mean everything about the story was TOO good expect first the ending dw it was a happy ending but not for me uh I don't want to spoil so
Spoiler!
I wanted the mc to stay back in the novel world not in the real world bc I just feel like there wasn't much chemistry with the real world characters that was there in the novel world and tbh I liked the novel ml better but nah babygirl returned to the real world and honestly that made it a not-so happy ending for me. 

I gave it a four star rating only bc of that but it might not be disappointing for y'all otherwise the story was GOD**** GOOD

Read it.
I recommend slowing down near the end around chapter 60 and up just to take in all the info slowly. trust me it will make the experience much better especially in the last 5 chapters.

do not read spoilers. 
me personally, i love spoilers so i clicked on every single one and got everything spoiled for me. dont do what i did it ruined the whole experience.
if i got to reread one manhwa without knowing anything i would read this. 

ok now. the plot is well thought out and is just amazing. the time setting is amazing, the art, the characters, how they act just everything.

of course everyone would like to see more of the ending but i feel like that would leave us with a different feeling of the manhwa itself so i like how it ended. 

of every manhwa where the mc goes into a story, this was the most best i have ever seen. 
i see it as a story that is for those who are really into books and finding all the different endings and views. the ending feels undone but in my opinion if the mc doesn't get to know what happened in there neither do we.

it made me cry a lot. the disturbing topics, the fear that the mc had each character seemed so complex. i never really knew what they were thinking aside from what the author showed. for example 
Spoiler!
a side character came off as a kind and caring friend that was there for the mc. they helped others and did their work but near the ends he has a sudden change where he kills and shows what he thinks which took a huge turn for who i thought they would be.

IF YOU DIDNT READ THE GOD**** MANHWA YET DONT READ SPOILER EVEN IF U WANNA B SPOILED

many people are pis*** with the ending, i think it was perfect. each character took a sudden turn in who they were meant to be or with what happened. the novel turned to a mess near the end from the interference of the mc. from the start it had its own events it had to follow but with the mc there was none. because most things were "avoided" everything just came crashing down. we never knew the end of the original novel.  some people were saying it took a turn from the start? but it shows that at the start the mc was supposed to be continuously tortured and the everyone was going to be murdered and if you think that its somehow going to end with all sunshines and rainbows then HUHH??!! READ IT FRICKING AGAIN HE WAS MEANT TO BE TORTURED. PEOPLE WERE DYING. NOTHING ABOUT THAT IS "CALM" IT ALL MESSED UP ALONG WITH THE FAMILY WHICH IT MENTIONED IN THE START i sound like im spouting bs rn

All though this story might not be everyones cup of tea it is one of the most complex story i have read.

It shows how the mc's veiw of the world changes and it does, alot

The reason this did not get five stars was the ending. Non of the problems that made his life a he** were vever resolved the bad guys got exactly what they wanted and i am sure several people are not content with who the bottom ended up with as well 

As well as that at the end it never trully explained what happened and where the mc was and why what he expected was so twisted and the truth of what happened before he came there and why he is responsible for the death of some people and what happend to his parents

Other than those things a solid 4/5

VERY VERY CLEVER PLOT!!!!
THE TIME SETTING IS ALSO VERY UNIQUE AS IT ACTUALLY DEPICTS THE EARLY 1900s...

AS IT APPROACHES THE END, A POETICALLY BEAUTIFUL METAPHOR SYMBOLISES THEIR ROMANTIC JOURNEY AND DEVELOPMENT UNDER THE GUISE OF FANTASY.

I DARE SAY THAT THEY DID HAVE A WONDERFUL REALTIME DEVELOPMENT ALBEIT IN THE REALMS OF THEIR CONSCIOUSNESS GIVEN THAT THE MC WAS IN COMA, BUT HIS SOUL/MIND/ESSENCE IS AT WORK AT THE SAME😍❤️

I'll be honest, even though there's so much triggering contexts as well as the storyline kind of being confusing with how the novel has been created. I actually really liked it, even though a bunch of the characters are really easy to dislike and so much happens.

It gets easier to understand it overall, the main character's mindset and how refreshing it was to not only see a mature main character but for them to also lose their sanity making me feel that the character has real feelings to go past that point. 

However it's sort of the ending and the unnecessary characters, the story took a whole turn from the beginning when I expected something very different but that also is a positive aspect of it. The ending as I mentioned, I'm satisifed that it was all just a dream within his coma but upset with the development of Yujin, and it's incomplete how we don't actually get to see what happens nor the details of after Dongha wakes up from his coma.

I like the story from the beginning since it's more like, first love and or puppy love that I am really fond of, but dude, I didn't expect the ending would be that rushed!? Like, you made a good story then ruined it with just like that?! If I would be given a chance to change the ending part, promise, I know we have the same thoughts and imagination...How in he** that after getting out of the book, they are all ready in each others arm with no concrete explanations on how the fuc**** he** they made-up things between them? HOW? please... how...?

The art was pretty. The story was interesting at first, then kind of boring and then the ending was a disaster. No one likes the end, just check the comments...
