“See You In My 19th Life” Viewers Are Convinced They Have Discovered Mysterious Character’s True Identity

Netizens have developed a theory about a character in tvN‘s new K-Drama See You in My 19th Life. 

“See You in My 19th Life” poster

See You in My 19th Life airs every Saturday and Sunday and is distributed internationally via Netflix. It is adapted from the Webtoon of the same name, focusing on a woman, Ji Eum (Shin Hye Sun), who reunites with her childhood love, Seo Ha (Ahn Bo Hyun), from her past life.

Ban Ji-eum, who can remember all her past lives, sets out to reconnect with a lost love from her 18th life, which was cut tragically short.

So far, it’s been a pretty good adaptation, but readers of the Webtoon have noticed differences and changes between the original story and the K-Drama. For one thing, there seems to be a new character.

While the mysterious Min Gi (Lee Chae Min) is a character from the Webtoon, Han Na (Lee Han Na) is not. Yet, in the K-Drama, they know each other.

"does juwon knows getting involved with her past lives could make things complicated?"

mingi: i don't think she knows. that's why she's being like that

Viewers believe Han Na is reincarnated and can remember past lives like the main character. In the recent episode, the two run into each other, and she not only calls Ji Eum by the name she was known by in her 18th life but tells her that she grew up well.

This moment alone could make one suspicious that this character is Seo Ha’s mother (Lee Bo Young), who passed away when he was a kid. She had been close enough with Ji Eum and had even encouraged her to watch over Seo Ha.

That’s not all, though. Like Seo Ha’s mother, who had run the hotel where he now works, Han Na put in fresh flowers in the lobby, and they appeared to be the same ones his mom had liked.

Additionally, there is a scene where Han Na does something just like Seo Ha. Earlier in the series, he puts his finger on a portrait of his stepmother who took over his mother’s hotel, saying, “Out.” Later, Han Na also puts her finger on the portrait.

As she walked by, she recognized Seo Ha’s uncle. If the theory is correct, it would be her brother.

Based on these few moments so far, viewers are convinced that Han Na is Seo Ha’s late mother reincarnated.

“Juwon-ah, you grew up so well.”

OMG is Hanna really the reincarnation of Seoha's mom or???#SeeYouInMy19thLife #SeeYouInMy19thLifeEp5 pic.twitter.com/eJpW7cAoX1

i don't really remember the webtoon, but it seems like this girl is the reincarnation of seoha's mom. She changed the flowers in the lobby, recognized jieum as juwon, and always roaming around the hotel.

she's watching seoha in this life too ????#SeeYouInMy19thLifeEp5 pic.twitter.com/8PJysChK1P

What do you think about this theory, considering it’s different from the Webtoon?
