Surviving something like this Leaves a Mark.....

Aw man.... what can I say.... i had 4 scenarios in my brain of what the ending will be like:-1) Everyone will die! No Survivors and maybe the Eden Studio will be caught on fire.2) Jung Woo and Mr "Honey" over here are actually swapped in the end and we have been shown the truth all along but the point of view and the identity of our MC has been a lie.3) usually what happens in Horror games The MC survives but with lots of Trauma and tons of therapy and healing to look forward to.4) The least likely scenario, Jong Woo turns and joins hands with Mr "Honey"and what we got is a fitting ending with one last twist which will make us dread the MC and feel bad for him as well and probably curse every single one of them who could have helped him if they just listened to him and the police wasn't so useless (except for Jung Hwa who tried her best with all the disadvantages she had and lack of power/resources). Jung Woo was truly isolated and he was the target to be molded by Moon Jo all along and without the support of his friends and family he truly felt prey to the Gaslighting!

Also Jong Woo killed everyone to survive and not out of bloodlust or without reason....still it leaves such a bad taste and also it feels like in the end, Moon Jo won and succeeded in creating his masterpiece...Ah man.....The acting, the story....
Still...there is something a little disappointing about the ending but not surprising because the genre is Psychological Horror and if it was a genre under which Hunger Games is under then the ending would've been different and whole tone of the story would have been different.

Anyways, I am just gonna picture Jung Woo going to Therapy and overcoming all this in due time. Yep that's what I am gonna picture the ending as!

fckin incredible, the ending truly surpassed my expectations!

just needed to share this gold comment on a streaming site: "so this is how it ends huh.I've been talking about this in the comment section already but I can't help but do so again as now EVERYTHING MAKES SENSE.So, "the metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka really seems to be the key plot element of this series. Until ep 9 I clinged onto thinking that jongwoo was undergoing a metarmorphosis in the sense that he's going crazy living in the Eden dormitory. I guess I just considered Jongwoo as the innocent, "normal" Jongwoo that we got to know int the first eps. I thought that maybe he would break under this horror and in the end die by killing himself. Just like the protagonist of the book, as he died by starving himself as he didn't want to continue living after undergoing his metarmorphosis.Oh how wrong I was.In the end, Jongwoo did break under the pressure, stress and trauma, however, not his "innocent" side one, but the crazy one. Even though we could still see him fighting his metamorphosis (e.g. when Ji-eun was interrogated she had flashbacks of Jongwoo choking himself: that was literally Jongwoo trying to stop his metamorphosis into a serial killer), he ended up killing all of the people in Eden. Thereby, he became thedentist. That's also why the female police officer ended up seeing an halluzination of the dentist in the elevator, because Jongwoo literally became him.Furthermore, the dentist used to call his murders art. He sincerely considered mudering art, and in some way Jongwoo is continuing this too. He's writing a book about what happend in Eden, but as we've seen the novel really does only consist of the word "die". However, by writing this down in the form a novel he is in some sense creating art.All in all, HE BECAME THE DENTIST.that is my main theory to the ending. Of course, there is the possibility that the dentist killed them all. I mean, he did say when he killed the CEO that he's usually not "this sloppy". There is the possibility that because of Jongwoo, because he "likes" or better "cherishes" him so much as his masterpiece, he became sloppy and killed them all in an amateur like manner. It could be, but I highly doubt that.ALL IN ALL, this drama could be considered a modern day version of "the metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka AND I'M ALL IN FOR IT. Literally the best drama, I've ever watched. And also the actors and actresses did such a great job, especially Im Siwan. Considering that it's his first project after his military service once could think that his acting and facial expressions became rusty BUT NOT AT ALL. I bought him off everything: the scared and helpless and innocent guy and the crazy lunatic. He did maginificent at both of them + he did so well at acting out Jongwoo's metamorphosis. Literally a legend. We stan.As for Lee Dong woo. We all know he's also a kdrama legend, but seeing him pulling a 180 from a sweet lawyer in "touch my heart" to THIS. He truly deserves all his fame we also stan.And for the other actors, especially the guy who played the twins. W O W. EVERYONE DID SO WELLI'm just shook y'all gotta go now wow.
