I think I know what’s happening so I think Chaeheon is Narye and he knows that but after hearing Seoyo speak about him he realized that he had to “throw him off his scent” so he went and hired someone who could resemble him and told him exactly what to say and regarding the kidnapping I think he knew that Seoyo would try to escape so he probably told them to drive near the location he was at. Also it just makes sense that he paid that to do things because ain’t no way he just shows up after 2 traumatic things happened to him in a row randomly. He wants Seoyo to see him as a good guy but I think his past will catch up to him and slip through the cracks but Seoyo won’t see it until it’s to late.
I'm almost wondering if maybe....and this might not make sense, but-
What if when they are reincarnated, that's soul and body. So MC had his soul and body reincarnated, and that's why he looks just like he did in the past life.
But because of this whole mess, Narye's soul and body were reincarnated differently. So his soul is bound to MC (and came back into MC's life as Chaeheon) but his body was reincarnated into whoever kidnapped him...?
I think it would be much easier for him to have hired an actor though, but given this whole backstory about being locked out of heaven, idk bro. This story is WILD.
Dude that translation was so good if you could please keep translating the other one was so ass and I don’t think the other dude coming back.
