Main Hook says "That realm was fake. You're fake."

Wish Hook says "I'm very real."

Writers say "They were created by a wish, but now they are real."

No further clarification. I think the characters outside the Wish Realm view it as fake (or are at least skeptical about its realness) because it's only existed for a short amount of time and was created by a wish, but that the Wish Realm characters view it as real because to them it is real. That's understandable (sort of, as they literally were running around with a second Regina), but the writers should have been more clear or at least discussed it in interviews this season.
