Ha Yoon Kyung shows unrestrained childlike emotion when she realizes she has reconnected with her late older sister, drawing viewers into the scene. The on-screen chemistry between her and Shin Hye Sun is clearly evident as Shin Hye Sun steps into the role of an older sister and brings the wisdom and maturity of someone who has lived 18 other lives to her character’s serious moments.
The grand reveal was given the moment it deserved. It didn’t feel rushed, and it had the emotional complexity one might expect when faced with what seems to be an impossible situation.

Character Kang Min Ki (portrayed by Lee Chae Min) may not be the bad guy, which netizens had previously suspected. The show created an uneasy atmosphere whenever his character was present, using dark lighting, ominous music, and ambiguous behavior to leave viewers constantly guessing his intentions until now.
The name of the mystery woman who interacts with Kang Min Ki was finally revealed as Han Na (portrayed by Lee Han Na), and additional clues were given which seem to allude to her being Moon Seo Ha’s deceased mother reincarnated, deepening the show’s storyline and Ban Ji Eum’s one-of-a-kind connection with Moon Seo Ha.

Until now, it had seemed that Kang Min Ki played a hand in the illness of Yoon Ju Won’s niece, Kim Ae Kyung (portrayed by Cha Chung Hwa).
This also turned into a plot twist when it was revealed that Ban Ji Eum’s confession of her identity to figures in her past life would eventually lead to complications, and it’s suggested that Ban Ji Eum revealing her true identity to Kim Ae Kyung caused her illness.

This reveal threatens to complicate Ban Ji Eum and Moon Seo Ha’s already delicate friendship and their possible progression into a romantic connection if Ban Ji Eum cannot reveal herself as his late childhood love.

While that had been alluded to, it may have been more surprising that Moon Seo Ha was the intended target in the accident, and his father’s personal driver, who drove the vehicle during the accident, also died.
The driver is revealed to be Ha Do Yoon (portrayed by Ahn Dong Goo) and Ha Do Jin’s father.
