I have since the beginning thought it's the 1st scenario.

I think the use of that pendent was simply to reiterate the point that no matter what Sol does, the most significant events of their lives will sooner or later catch up to them. In other words, they are fated to meet, fated to go through similar beats, and fated to confront that taxi driver. And yeah, Sun Jae's fated to like that revolting piece of jewellery. In this timeline, he bought it for himself. *sigh*

All those worried about Sun Jae losing all the memories created in all the timelines can rest easy. His memories are resurfacing in fragments. He doesn't quite understand, but he soon will.

Basically, Sun Jae's idea of a gift is what an animated girl may luuurvve.

Word. 🤦‍♀️

Priorities! 😝 What I assumed to be a crude engraving turned out to be a series of crystals. *Facepalm* Those crystals made the pendent look uglier. I am all for being thrifty and sentimental but if my partner were to pay for something like that, I would have thrown a fit. Gift me something practical like a water bottle instead. I guess the thought was realistic. Inexperienced guy buying a gift for his girlfriend for the very first time, and girlfriend loves it because it's the thought that counts. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I thought it was cute of him to gift her a pendent, however, the ugly pendent brought me crashing down to reality. It's akin to keeping bits and bobs from your first date, like movie stubs or can rings. ☺ What made me shudder that he paid actual money to buy that revolting pendent. 🤣 Gotta admit, teen Sun Jae is a total mood! 😂

Also, he was at the staircase, that was the last place she expected him to be. It also looks like he is known but not exactly crazy famous.

I usually try watching the original source. :) Anime adaptations are either hit or miss.

You said it! 🤣 Pretty clever writing for a romcom.

Also, the mobile phone itself.

In the preview, when Sun Jae is whining, you can see him lounging on the couch.

Just as Sol integrated herself into Sun Jae's life when she first time travelled to the past, in this final travel, she must have done many things similarly. However, she made sure to keep out of Sun Jae's line of sight, and that honestly is not that difficult to do when she doesn't even exist in his life. Just how OG Sol was oblivious to his existence, with him pining for her from a distance, in this new timeline the tables have turned. Also, In Hyuk and Tae Sung were not even close friends in the OG timeline. They ran in different circles. Perhaps, in this timeline, both of them developed a deeper friendship given Sol's intervention and him not slacking off of school. In Hyuk must have been aware of Tae Sung's female friend. To put things in perspective, Tae Sung had many fangirls in school. In Hyuk may not have paid much attention to any. However, Tae Sung's friendship with In Hyuk endured, so by extension it's likely so did his friendship with Sol. If you remember, despite Tae Sung being in the band, both he and Sun Jae were pretty much unacquainted. Here, many people say Sun Jae fell in love at first sight. However, I disagree. Like any other person, it's hard not to notice attractive people. But the reason why Sun Jae fell so hard for her was not because of how adorable she looked, but her inherent kindness. In my country, while people are usually not rude to delivery persons, yet, they are pretty indifferent. They forget these people must work, whether it's rain or shine. Sol, uncharacteristically, not only put the umbrella over him but also gave him candies that she had with her. Basically she, despite being a ditzy teenager like many people are at that age, acknowledged his existence and discomfort "while doing his job". Which also explains why he was just as lovesick as he was in the original timeline. It also explains that despite the OG Sol being a classic "red flag" through no fault of her own right after the first timeline, he just couldn't get over her. Moreover, Sun Jae had newly shifted opposite to her, had different schedules for most of their high school career. So, even if he had spotted her in passing, I don't think he would have cared to investigate who she was or how she was like. Like his father testified, he was as pure as oxygen!

People, I have a point to make about why Sun Jae being oblivious to Sol's existence is possible despite her being friends with Tae Sung, and seemingly, with In Hyuk.

Amen! 🤗

Aww. Hugs... 🥰

Hugs. The past decade has been especially tough for me. I totally get you. Sending loads of love your way. 🥰

Yes, there is a possibility. Here, many people say he fell in love at first sight. However, I disagree. Like any other person, it's hard not to notice attractive people.

I thought it was cute too, till the ugly pendent brought me crashing down to reality. It's akin to keeping bits and bobs from your first date, like movie stubs or can rings. ☺ What made me shudder that he paid actual money to buy that revolting pendent. 🤣
