Introduction to Nikke's popular characters Dororong and Dorothy Dororong is a cute fan-made character based on the Dorothy character in Nikke. Dororong's popularity is so high that it is being exported to various parts of the world beyond Korea. This video will analyze the secret to Dororong's popularity and the original character, Dorothy.

Dorothy is from a politician's family and became a Nikke after the Rapture invasion. She played an active role in the Goddess Squad, acting as the leader. She gained popularity with her elegant appearance and kind tone, but she also shows a contrasting side as the story progresses. Her seemingly manipulative behavior towards the Commander is due to the Negative Arc's origin story.

The Negative Arc refers to the process of a character's corruption, which appears in Dorothy's Over Zone story. She shows unstable behavior, such as not accepting Pina's death and seeing hallucinations. Dorothy is closer to a deuteragonist, a helper, than a villain or antagonist. The deuteragonist plays a role in creating conflict as the protagonist's helper.

Dorothy is a multi-faceted character who feels affection despite being betrayed by humanity. This can be seen in her expressing gratitude to the Commander and promising to meet again. She aims to create a new paradise, Eden, rather than the destruction of the Ark. It is expected that Dorothy will continue to appear and play an active role in future stories.

Dororong started as a dog-ified drawing of Stella Unibell from Soul Game. It gained a cult following with its pathetic yet cute charm. It spread overseas along with Nikke's global success. Its popularity was proven through a Times Square advertisement. The gap moe element acts as a popular factor, and it feels more attractive in contrast to Dorothy's three-dimensional character.
