The researcher used Sigmund Freud's theory in the literary psychology approach. The qualitative descriptive method was used in this research. Data were collected using reading and note-taking techniques and used triangulation to ensure data validity. Data analysis used data reduction, data display, and conclusion.  The data found were classified based on the Id, Ego, and Superego personality structures. The results found that (1) Keiko's personalities as the main character consists of id, ego, and superego.
