I've heard someone say kim dokja's ■■ parallels his name first introduced in the novel. I cant remember who anymore, or what exactly they wrote, but I do have some ideas of my own:

"Kim Dokja": an only child "Kim Dokja": a reader. His ■■ consists of two: Eternity and Epilogue.

Eternity, where he gets to be a lonely child in a subway. He is forever on this subway, forever strong; independent; self sufficient. He is the 'only child'.

And on this subway, he gets to spectate and see what every reader longs to see at the end of a beloved story: the characters live happily after years of tragedy, settling down as they maintain their found family dynamics for the rest of their lives. He is the 'reader'.

Epilogue, where this time, instead of watching the characters leave him to his own cold world, he goes on towards this new ending with them. He is no longer the 'reader', but instead a 'character' in the story with all the people he has ever loved. He has a new family now, one with his two lovely mothers, a dependable older brother to lean on (swk), not to mention the entirety of kim com & the other occasional constellations there to fill up their big house with chatter and laughter and warmth. He is definitely no longer an 'only child'.

To become 49% percent is to become someone who is neither a reader, nor an only child. To become 49% is to no longer be "Kim Dokja".

A writer and her reader <3

Ty to @/princess-of-purple-prose for writing the alt text!

I am very very proud of this artwork and couldn’t help but share :’) hopefully I’ll start posting more art on here

Are you any different?

Bonus:

everyone is waiting for you kim dokja!

if youve ever left long rambling tags on any of my posts i love you by the way

its built into their character, who they are as people. they are made of love. for kim dokja to not have split into 49/51, he would have to Not Be kim dokja. for yoo joonghyuk to give up on kdj, gain closure and move on with his life easily, he would have to Not Be yoo joonghyuk. its not mentioned in the screenshot, but han sooyoung is the same. for hsy to not have written twsa, to not have written orv; she would have to someone, anyone other than han sooyoung. as herself she will always have this stubborn kindness in her heart. her monstrous huge heart!!! capable of giving all of the world's love and more!!!!!

thinking about this

they both tried so hard. kim dokja would never sacrifice himself again, but he did. yoo joonghyuk would never regress again, but he did. something something orpheus will always look back for eurydice...
