Thanks for the recommendation! I haven't seen Someday or One Day yet, but your comment definitely makes me want to check it out.

Maybe I didn't explain my point very clearly. I wasn't trying to say that Kim Jin Won came up with the story or its message. What I meant was that he seems to be consistently drawn to stories that explore similar themes, especially the relationship between fate and personal choice. That's the pattern I was referring to.

I'm curious to see how the original handles those ideas, so thanks again for suggesting it.

Hello my friend. Thank you for your good comment and comprehensive information that you provided us. There is  just a points that you might be interested to know, and is that you shouldn't confuse Nam Jeon with Jung Do-jeon. Nam Jeon was a fictional character in this drama. There was no direct image of Jung Do-jeon shown in the drama. He was only mentioned a few times and only once, from behind, was he shown, and finally after the coup d'état of Lee Bang-won and his attack on the palace, the news of Jung Do-jeon's death was announced among other important casualties of the coup.
