Now I think I get the idea what Squiddy means by “Everything will go wrong”.

The dividing line between the Stage and the Shadow have slowly become more and more unclear. Like, I swear I heard the BLIP sound when Do-Hwa and Ju-Da were running down those stairs but the signature color tone change wasn’t shown as usual. It’s getting harder and harder to distinguish when’s the Stage and when’s the Shadow in some scenes, I really have to pay attention. We’ve witnessed more scenes that transition from Shadow straight into Stage as if those Stages are the consequences of what happened in the Shadow.

Also, so far, I thought that Ha-Ru is being “used” in the Stage by the Writer but now I really doubt whether that was his own doing (interfering). Like the tennis match scene, it was intended to be someone else (a student wearing glasses) who is supposed to play with Kyung. But the manhwa changes that student into Ha-Ru before Mi-Chae’s eye. So, when characters start doing things on their own and the Writer loses control over the story then everything is mixed/messed up, is that “going wrong”? By the way, his conversation with Ha-Ru: “Stop Eun Dan-Oh, that’s the reason for your existence”, makes me shiver. What kind of role Ha-Ru is playing exactly? Or Mi-Chae is just trolling with him?

And I thought I already knew fellow Beanies are clever. In fact, you guys are GENIUS!!!!! I’ve been denying the idea of manhwa characters traveling through a sparkling blackhole from the beginning, I thought it was too fantasy. But Dried Squid reading that flower-covered sageuk-like manhwa is really leading into that direction, well if only that would not turn out to be red-herring.

Too many questions and theories but no answer yet. This show has transformed from lively-bubbly-hilarious to mysterious (and sometimes even dark) so seamlessly.

      I wonder how many of these events are from the Writer’s doing? Did s/he willingly change them or was forced to? Or they just occur as a consequence/chaos because evrything is going “wrong”?

    Self note:
    -The Writer who loses control trying to get back his power……?
    – LOVE it when Dan-Oh ditches Kyung and he gets so confused. Satisfied.
    – But then why did she become so proactive cutting tie with him? It’s clearly not her own doing… she’s surprised and have no control.
    – Do-Hwa’s puppy eyes when handing Dan-Oh strawberry milk is killing me (Dramalord did heard our prayer #JusticeforDanOhandherStrawberryMilk).
    – Do-Hwa touching Ha-Ru’s back is DaeBak!!!

      Don’t know if HaRu enters the tennis court by his own will or not, but he is still restricted to do what has been set for that scene. He can’t move and play very badly. When the Stage is done, he becomes a pretty efficient player (and he knows/is confident that he is).
