episode:3

Back in the real world, Yeon-joo’s father is still missing. Su-bong finds out that Yeon-joo told Kang Chul that he’s only a manhwa character; he decides to end the manhwa, but all the computers in the office won’t work.

In the manhwa world, everyone becomes frozen in time. Kang Chul sees the portal that connects his world and Yeon-joo’s world. After taking a gun from a policeman, he goes through the portal.........

Kang Chul is stunned to see his face in a poster of the manhwa “W” plastered on a bus; he then goes to a bookstore and reads all of the editions of the manhwa.

Later, he goes to see Yeon-joo in her hospital where she’s preparing for an operation.

Distressed that his creator has been trying to kill him, Kang Chul goes to Oh Sung-moo’s office and tears it apart. Later, as Oh Sung-moo goes into his office, Kang Chul confronts him. Oh Sung-moo strikes at him with a box cutter, but Kang Chul disarms him.

Yeon-joo has called Su-bong and warned him that Kang Chul has entered their world. As she rushes to the office in a taxi, she hears on the cellphone her father daring Kang Chul to shoot him.

Despite the medical emergency, the manhwa publisher calls up Yeon-joo and tells her that something strange is going on with the manhwa. As she reads the manhwa on a computer, she gets a letter from Kang Chul saying goodbye.

Kang Chul jumps off from the bridge into the river below.

One month later ... Oh Sung-moo is recuperating at home and has retired from his career. Despite the protests of the angry fans and the worried publisher, Yeon-joo refuses to ask his father to rewrite the manhwa’s ending.

Life goes on as Oh Sung-moo travels to New Zealand for a holiday with his friends, and Yeon-joo meets a blind date set up by her professor.

Despite pressure from Yeon-joo to save Kang Chul from the river, Su-bong can’t draw the frames. Later on, Yeon-joo finds herself back in the prison where Kang Chul visited her.

Kang Chul is saved by a rescue boat, and he reawakens in his own world. But the mysterious killer in his world has entered Yeon-joo’s world.

Yeon-joo remembers that she created the character Kang Chul after watching the 2000 Olympics and that her father created the manhwa “W” based on her concept and drawings....

Inside the police van that’s transporting her, Yeon-joo reveals to Kang Chul that she created him and rescued him from the river. She also pleads with him to get her out of jail legally.

Kang Chul visits the graves of his family, distraught that his parents and siblings are nothing but manhwa characters. After remembering what Oh Sung-moo said about there being no actual killer, Kang Chul decides to give up looking for whoever killed his family. Later, he visits Yeon-joo in jail and berates her for bringing him back to life.

Kang Chul’s bodyguard Do-yoon visits Yeon-joo in jail, bringing along with him a lawyer who explains the legal strategy to get her her out. Yeon-joo agrees reluctantly with the strategy.

Do-yoon meets Kang Chul’s secretary So-hee who asks him to give Kang Chul her resignation letter. To his surprise, he sees So-hee’s hand briefly morph into a manhwa drawing.......
