hey guys! it's me, the actual author.

i just wanted to thank you all for helping and inspiring me through this amazing journey while continuing to read. i'm sad to say that this is over, but i'm happy to know that all of the hard work i put into it isn't being overlooked. it means so much to me as someone who has a passion for writing, and has had that passion since she learned how to spell and read and write.

i hope you had as much fun reading this as i had writing it.

also: i hope you didn't think of this as me saying "this member is better than others!" or "i hate this member so i'm going to make do bad things/not give him a major role!" that is not at all what was i saying with this story. 

i wanted one of the messages of this story to be "treat all members equally", while still making the story fun to enjoy and fun to write. (i also write too much, so to sort of step out of my comfort zone, this was born! turns out i actually really like writing horror,,)

while playing doki doki literature club, i felt like monika's character (seokjin) was left out through most of it, and it reminded me of this group that i happen to stan. i didn't make seokjin portray that character because i hate him, but because although he gets a lot of appreciation, he is the one of the more underrated bts members. i didn't make jimin and hoseok play characters that didn't even originally exist in the game and barely have in chapters in this because i dislike them, but because i felt they wouldn't portray the main characters in the way i wanted. 

i understand that a lot of this was left without explanation. i didn't want to throw you guys a bunch of cryptic messages without telling you what meant, but i didn't want to spoil anything or make anything less horrific because i explained it right after.

so, now that your mind has settled, i'll explain a bit more things that might have left you confused.

if you are interested in knowing the answers to the following, comment on them: 

✓ = already explained

✓ - the special poems (who wrote them—in my opinion, what some of them mean) 

✓ - how exactly this was "reader interactive" if the outcomes were mostly going to be the same / how to get the "good ending" / the meaning behind the end credit pictures and why some of them are glitched

✓ - jeongguk's back story✓

✓ - meanings behind ACTUAL poems (explaining metaphors, decoding ones that are impossible to read)

✓ - meaning behind seokjin's piano

thank you for reading.

stay safe, stay healthy, stay alive.

i love you all~
