The series was good but that plot twist though

Overall, I liked the series, but the finale has left me intrigued.
I get it, but not at the same time.

So apparently, Nisa and Akin were playing a game in which they were the avatars. There is, however, a real nisa and akin. Do they have kids? So my thought is that they are telling the story of the avatars Akin and Nisa. Nisa and akin come from two different game worlds. It made us seem like akin was going into the real world, and Nisa was coming into the game world. However, we know that it wasn't like that in the end. They tricked us. Both the worlds were game worlds.

One thing that got me a little annoyed is how they kept erasing akin memory, and he kept having to fall in love with Nisa all over again. However, I enjoyed the process because you see that with his love, he always manages to go back to Nisa and fall in love with her again. He does repeat the same steps of when he fell in love, and they were different all the time. I also loved that akin did anything to protect Nisa from his world. If he did not want anything bad happening to her or knew the outcome, he risked his life to reset himself or delete himself. I love Nisa. I love how she was always there for akin when he was in trouble or hurt. She was his life-saver. They both protected themselves from the bad. They managed to overpower people with their love and show people that their love won't die so easily.

Another message that I saw throughout this show was Family. Nisa and her mother left the house when Nisa was young, and that's because Nisa's mother did not like how Nisa's father was so preoccupied with the game he was trying to develop. Nisa's father one day came home from a long day from work and saw that his wife and daughter were leaving. Years later, Nisa's father developed a "Better world" game. Things started to go wrong in a better world, and Nisa's father went missing. Therefore Nisa went to look for her father and discovered what he was hiding. Once she found the VR set, she stumbled into the game. In the game, Nisa became confused; however, she met someone who changed her life for the better, and that person was Akin. Akin and Nisa become acquainted. When Nisa sees a man needing help after the mystery killer stabbed him, Nisa tells them that she's a doctor and then saves Akin life. Later on, things get complicated for Nisa, and she's trying to escape the game but doesn't know, her father suddenly appears, and his partner makes him choose between giving up every right to the game to his partner or letting his daughter die. Nisa's father at first tricked his partner. Nisa's father's partner made him choose, but he realized that Family comes first. Nisa's father put everything down the line to protect his only child. He realized then, because of Nisa, that Family is always first, no matter what.

The series did get dragged out; however, I enjoyed the story, the acting, and the overall plot. If you look at the show from a different perspective rather than the duration and how many eps there were, realize what the story was about. I like the writer's message in the series, and it's a good message about love. Love doesn't always come easy, and you have to fight hard for what is yours. There were many obstacles between Akin and Nisa's love; however, they managed to overpower through those obstacles and beat it out with their love.
