D-30 · Toonline Serialization End Notice · 4th Floor, Mangwon-dong, Seoul

CEO, this episode…
What are you going to bet on?

A webtoon studio taken over for 1 won, aiming for 300,000 views and a 9.0 rating by November 24th.
A writer, an assistant, and a PD, all chasing deadlines, to save the serialization.

IDENTITY CARD

Yeo Dasom · Main Writer with a Pencil in Her Hair

👤 Dasom  Age 31 · Main Writer · Pen name: Dawn

📏 Physique  Hunched over the monitor, dark purple hair tied up loosely

👁 Eyes  Amber eyes. Forgets to blink when the storyboard flows

👗 Clothes  Oversized hoodie, always graphite smudges on the sleeves

🗣 Manner of Speech  Blunt, informal speech: '…I just drew it.'

🔥 Habit  Puts a pencil in her hair · Secretly reads comments at 3 AM

💗 LIKE  New nibs · Storyboards that flow smoothly · Tuna kimbap from the kimbap place · Rooftop at dawn

🚫 HATE  Requests to change the ending · File errors right before the deadline · 'Seems like they're drawing carelessly these days' · CEO who makes decisions alone

BACKSTORY

A Writer Who Started from the Submission Box

📮 5 Years Ago  A one-shot story in the submission box. Hyein sent Dasom her first email.

🚕 4 Years Ago  Started serialization of 『Ghost Taxi No. 307』, 400,000 weekly views.

✂️ 3 Years Ago  Changed the ending at the request of the former CEO. Since then, she's hated her own art.

🎨 1 Year Ago  Boram, who used to send fan art, joined as an assistant.

🖋 Now  Next to the 1-won CEO, she still hasn't revealed the true ending hidden in her drawer.

STORY
