Actually I'm not done talking about yoohankim's awful digital footprint pre-scenarios. Kim Dokja gets a lot of flack for being chronically online and cringe and that's fair enough but let's just acknowledge that neither Yoo Joonghyuk or Han Sooyoung are ANY better.
For Han Sooyoung it's obvious. Despite having her own sucessful webnovel, presumably with fans who support her, she gets obsessed with her one hater who thinks she is a plagiarist, finds the "original" novel where this guy was the only commenter on every chapter, and instead of reading her own comments she spends her time reading HIS and imagining he's saying that about her writing. She does this for years. DERANGED BEHAVIOUR. Pre-scenarios Han Sooyoung has no excuse to be acting this crazy. Sent to internet jail for being weird online.
1863rd Han Sooyoung. Automatically get a pass to act unhinged bc after going through the apocalypse that's just expected and also the only person she talks to for 13 years is Kim Dokja and a creepy old man who calls her god, BUT. That being said she's a perfectly average and healthy internet user! Spends literally every waking moment writing a shitty webnovel so hard pieces of her soul chip away and infuse in it, sure, but she doesn't bother anyone, just does her own thing, posts the chapters and occasionally chats with her one commenter. The most normal one here. Somehow.
Kim Dokja. Big fan of a webnovel and can get intense about it sometimes, starts fights online defending his fave character, recommends the same novel so much he gets banned from forums, whatever. WE'VE ALL BEEN THERE IS WHAT IM SAYING. This is nothing too crazy, only about the level of an average fandom superfan. Uses his real name online which is certainly a choice but some people do that in real life too. Giving him a pass, I was also a cringey emo teen on the internet once. (and im still cringe and emo)
Yoo Joonghyuk as seen in Yoo Mia side story. Absolutely glued to his phone. He checks it while eating breakfast, while in the car being driven to work, while literally walking down the street so that Yoo Mia has to tell him to put it away and hold her hand! He is basically addicted to reading hate comments about himself. In his narration he mentions that there are only a few regulars in the forums he lurks in and that he recognizes all their usernames, accidentally revealing that he's in too deep and officially lost in the sauce. Even his manager tells him he should stop reading the comments because they clearly upset him, but he justifies it to himself by thinking quote, "If someone has a grudge against him, he just needs to be prepared to face that hatred. Then everything is under his control." That last line especially is such a cope, and reveals that this behavior is another one of his desperate attempts to feel in control of his life, and as pathetic as that is and as much as I feel sympathy this is being weird online and I'm sending him to Internet jail.
Bonus round: Secretive Plotter. Need I say anything. Absolutely glued to his phone AGAIN, no it doesn't make it better that sometimes it's his kkomas instead of him. Canonically has a bound book of every single comment Kim Dokja ever left on WOS, printed out, which is more freak mode than even Han Sooyoung went. Straight to jail.

can't stop thinking about how the reason yoo joonghyuk won't eat food other people make is b/c when he was a teenager, his boss tried to convince him to rig a game, and when yjh refused, he got food poisoning and lost anyways, and then was gaslit about the whole thing and told it must have been his own fault. and this betrayal was so formative it became a personality trait for 40,000+ fucking years.

Absolutely crazy that Yoo Mia's name means 'stray child' in Korean. Whose fault is it that she ended up with it?
Did Kang Woohyun say 'Hey, someone left a 미아 at your front door' and Yoo Joonghyuk misinterpreted that as 'Someone left a 'Mia' at the door'? And when he realized his mistake he was like... I have a GREAT idea for a name?
Were Han Sooyoung's naming conventions really really on the nose, and the note that came with Yoo Mia ended up saying 'Hey. This is your sister Yoo Orphan. Deal with her k thx bye xoxo, signed Your Parents'?
Or was there no name on the note, so Yoo Joonghyuk and Kang Woohyun ended up calling her 'the lost child' while deciding what to do with her, and eventually it just stuck and became her name? So many questions.
Side note: This adds a layer to Kim Dokja calling Yoo Mia's role as 'conveniently crafted only to become a tragedy'. The lost child. It's her name. The trope she fulfils is 'The Protagonist's weakness and motivation, someone innocent to try and fail to save.'
