Okay. So, Doha knows how to end the game. We know this, because he found that piece of paper that he or Seongchan probably wrote during their past/original memory/tape save, and tears it up so Bada doesn’t find it. He also keeps manipulating the game and other players, so that Bada doesn’t find clues to bring the game towards completion. Bada is an NPC, like the NPC that Seongchan, a player, taught to guard the room with all the tapes and the multi-tape player. Bada is there to help the players along the way so they can complete the game, just like the other NPC. It doesn’t matter if Bada’s memory is wiped and a new save tape is made, Bada always figures out or finds something new to keep progressing the game. I.e. Bada is the key towards completing the game. Here’s what I’m thinking. Seongchan stopped playing all the other players tapes, so he could go off on his own and finish the game by himself. The only thing that he didn’t take into mind was the fact that Bada would possibly start or stop other tapes from playing. I have a feeling that Bada somehow stopped all the other remaining players tapes through his attempts of trying to escape the game (when he would find a tape and then put it in a tape player), then at some point restarted Seongchan’s last play-through and one of Doha’s early/mid-game play-throughs. I have a very bad feeling that Seongchan is hiding a very big secret. Kind of like how, in Wreck-It Ralph, King Candy is actually Turbo from TurboTime that changed the code in Sugar Rush to take over Vanellope’s role as the ruler in the game, and basically erase her/cause a glitch in the game? What if Bada is the true player of the game and has now become an NPC, because the actual NPCs became sentient and switched their “code” with Bada’s? What if Seongchan found out that only one person, the player that completes the game, is the only person that will be able to leave the game? Maybe Doha found this out as well, and, at first, wanted to manipulate Bada into helping him finish the game, but then decided to abandon the idea altogether, due to his growing obsession for Bada. Would that count as some kind of a reverse Stockholm syndrome kind of thing? Idk fam, I’m just here hoping that this isn’t just someone completely random playing the game, and what we are witnessing is their multiple play-throughs/game saves.

Is the black haired guy competing to take everything away from the blonde haired guy/putting up a fight? Not sure what’s happening, but from the looks of it, black haired guy is very skilled and did not seem to be a “nerd” in the past. He got average grades, had a lot of friends, and ended up being just like everyone else towards blonde haired guy. Was he putting on the “nerd” act to attract the MC? Idk why, it just feels too calculated, and I don’t like it. From skimming, I feel like the blonde haired guy is just trying to put on a “cool guy” mask to feel valid enough to stand next to/be with the MC? We see that since they were freshman, MC is highly sought after and there is a lot of hostility from upperclassmen towards blonde haired guy for getting closer to her. We also see that since he was younger, he’s had a hard time making friends. We can say that he’s spoiled and a snob for acting out/not wanting to be friends with people that “aren’t as smart as him,” but deep down, I feel like one of the downsides to being an introvert is that you push everyone away from you even though you want to be thought of/have friends of your own. That’s why, when black haired guy came to/transferred into the blonde haired guy’s school, blonde haired guy thought that he would finally have the chance to make a friend, but since he never built a relationship with anyone before, he reverted back to the same tactics that pushed everyone away to begin with again. I know he’s acting like a jerk sometimes around the MC, but idk, I kinda feel bad/sorry for him.

STRAIGHT TO JAIL

Yah okay, I’m out. Literally pulled this shit out of nowhere, WTF. I hate Raim like hell, but at this point, I was really fucking hoping Dohwa would finally get his chance with Su-ae when Raim randomly popped up again stalking Eunhyeok and whatnot; kinda got me thinking like “wow, the author might actually agree with their readers for once.” What the actual fuck was the whole point of Su-ae being at a turmoil when she sees the news pushing Dohwa and another celeb as a couple then feeling relieved when it wasn’t true??? No point in doing that if she can just immediately go from shoving and pushing off Eunhyeok, to fucking pouncing on him. Pls, for the love of god, give Dohwa a W, FOR ONCE. MY POOR BB BOY. HE DESERVES BETTER

I’m trying to remember. The sister isn’t blood related at all right? Her mom got remarried and the sister came from her stepdad’s previous marriage? Something’s not checking out. Unless her mom didn’t actually want her and was forced into a marriage with her dad that isn’t in the picture and somehow, looking at her, reminds the mom about the relationship she hated? Maybe her grandmother forced her mom into an arranged marriage? Still, that doesn’t just make it okay to take your anger and frustration out on your own child. Bro, idk, but DAMN. The mom is literally treating her like she’s worse than a parasite.

Ayo. Ain’t no way this Heeji bitch really about to ruin everything by telling Taeha’s bro (through his security) about Haesoo. They were literally just starting to come together. This is so fucked. Get this into your thick head. You can’t force someone to like you. Taeha has already done enough for you. He’s paid off, and could possibly still be paying for, hospital bills towards your brother and has stuck by your side as a friend that you can rely on for years. Yeah, you’ve known him for longer, but that doesn’t mean that you have to fuck everything up because you don’t get what you want. Now that I’m thinking about it, you, out of all people, should know about his family situation and how his brother is literal scum. Looks like you’re nothing but a leech like everyone else around him, except, obvi, Haesoo.

Mincheol, fuck off you diskarsting shet. Respectfully.

Mr. Beom Taeha, sir. I know Na Haesoo is endgame, but…please bite my ass too ლ(´ڡ`ლ). I hope that’s not too much to ask…much thanks. UwU

OKAY. NOT TRYING TO MAKE THINGS UP BUT I LEGITIMATELY HOPE THIS ISN’T TRUE. GUWON IS GIVING OFF KENJAKU FROM JJK VIBES. IS SISYPHUS TAKING HOST IN “PYO GUWON’S” BODY? MAYBE THE STITCHES AROUND HIS NECK AREN’T TATOOS??? MAYBE HIS DARK ARMS ARE SIGNS OF HIS BODY DECOMPOSING??! BRUH. SAY IT AIN’T SO.

Is anyone else getting the vibes off of Haeil to sort of match that of Jung from Cheese in the Trap? Like, ever so slightly? I think the author wants us to think that Giju’s ex destroyed her family’s business as payback for basically ruining any chance he had in going into acting with his favorite troupe (we see in a past chapter through a flashback that he was helping out at her family’s restaurant), when in actuality, it could have been Haeil hiring thugs to destroy the restaurant as payback for choosing the freshman over him as well as him knowing the exact amount of damage costs and tying it to the prize money that can be won from the script writing contest. Idk if you guys caught it but Haeil questioned Giju’s going out to see a movie with the freshman as he muttered under his breath about it ending earlier due to her going home but for a different reason than what he had thought. Haeil has a 0.5 star rating for a reason. Even though all the comments seem somewhat positive, I’m willing to believe he manipulated all the girls into thinking he was some kind of Saint, like what he is doing with Giju right now, and then after they finally open themselves up to him and he gets what he wants from them, he’ll immediately dump them and move on. Going back to the Jung comparison, I’m reminded of the scene where he underhandedly encourages a homeless man to go into the library where Seoul is studying to basically terrorize her and it is later blamed on another girl that had a crush on Jung and hated Seoul. I’m basically trying to get at the point where both Jung and Haeil have the power to show the female leads in a positive light/setting or turn things completely upside down for them. They’re both manipulative af.
