Both have authors in manga/manhua stories coming alive in one way or another. W the main lead jumps into the manhua.
It wasn't until the end of the movie Character that it hit me how similar it is to the drama series Strangers From Hell. In both the movie and the drama our main leads are a crime writers. Both of them gets gaslighted by the killer/s, convincing them that they are the same as the killer which gives them more and more mental destress as the story progresses. The movie and the drama both have this scenario that the two (the lead and the killer) become one, which causes the lead character to go insane. In both shows the story ends with a shot of the lead character in a hospital bed after the gruesome finale.
