Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.Waking up, Kim Hajin finds himself in a familiar world but an unfamiliar body.
A world he created himself and a story he wrote, yet never finished.
He had become his novel’s extra, a filler character with no importance to the story.
The only clue to escaping is to stay close to the main storyline.
However, he soon finds out the world isn’t exactly identical to his creation.

- MC is interesting, good natured and kinda dense, while trying to scheme around knowing what's going on, resulting in people thinking he's way more amazing than he really is. The idea to make him a side character makes the whole thing actually attractive.
- Secondary characters are all developed, as you follow what they think and understand their reasoning. I think that's really the best part of this novel.
- The world is interesting, even if the focus on Korea being the greatest powerful country is kinda too much IMO. A balanced setting would have made things more enjoyable.
- The secondary romances are cute, with the MC not seeing people being attracted to him.
Con-
- Antagonists are not entire clowns - Other than low ranked Djins with not much to show, the rest of the antagonists are well fleshed out - Bell, Jin Sahyuk etc do get their chance to shine and grow.
Things I didn't like:-
- The importance of characters are hyped by nothing much is given to us - For example, the author wasted time to explain the members of the Chameleon Troupe, but other than Jain and Cheok JunGyeong and Boss, the rest are not even given any screen time and are just relegated to being extras. What about Droon? What about Khalifa? What about the seat of Indigo??
- Let's not talk about the ending -
Spoiler
[collapse]
Anyway, it was evident that the author rushed the last 1/2 of the story, which is a shame.
Overall, I find many novels with male protags tend to not explore much about the MC's emotions. Maybe I just like reading about a main character emotions, idk, but if the author was going to write about the MC's loneliness, moral dilemma, romance, etc, he should certainly have showed this to us by talking more about MC's feelings, especially how he felt when he hung around with his friends, his comrades etc, to make us more sympathetic and to increase the depth of MC's personality. I don't mind that MC became OP around chapters 200+ because at that point in time he already lived for quite a while in the story and I could see that he really worked hard and strove for his goals. Lastly, I'm begging authors who can't write romance to please just not input romance into their stories anymore and if they really have to, make it a bromance at most.it was just so badly done that I'm appalled. Why would the author use some memory loss plot device? Wouldn't it make a better ending if Kim Suho and Kim Hajin had a talk about the whole author main character thing and reinforced their friendship? What happened with Cheok JunGyeong and Rumi? Why did he suddenly have a thing with Jin Seyeon? I'm also not convinced of the reason that Hajin gave to be relegated to be a side character (logically speaking, if the co-author had not given him mercy and returned some of his possessions he wouldn't have anything - not money, not power) in a lower dimension. I'm also confused as to whether he would end up going back to his original dimension after dying of old age, because I assumed that he would end up permanently as a lower-dimension soul based on what the co-author said, but MC later on said that he would only be missing from the original dimension for about 100 days.
1-The author is very nationalistic, classifying inferiorly to other countries like Korea the number 1, I in my case I do not complain about this, but it causes a lot of trouble.
2-The cube academy is the "TOP 1" but always infiltrates enemies constantly, which these enemies are faced against the protagonists, they are defeated, the academy does an investigation they do not find anything or give results, the enemy infiltrates again, they confront the protagonists, and the process repeats itself. If the academy "TOP 1" suffers from these problems always, which will be from the lower academies? The security of this is crap? A hole in the plot.
3-On the other hand has many chances, as enemies always infiltrate and meet the protagonists the rest is counted alone.
4-Almost all the relationships of the characters are misinterpreted, and are unnecessarily elongated causing fillers and unnecessary dialogues. I lost the interest since chapter 100, try to give it a try and get to 123 but likewise, the cliche process repeats itself. For now I will continue reading to see how it goes, but I am about to discard the novel.
