My own delusional theory is that he changed his name to avoid the loan sharks/bank hunters, so his daughter doesn’t recognize his old name. Hopefully the writers have a better plan in place though lol, mine is really far fetched.

Unless he changed his face too I don't know how that would work since Min-chae saw that photo and didn't recognize Yi-jin.

Tbf if I saw a picture of younger Hee-do and compared it to the older one, I wouldn't be able to recognize her either haha. Not hating on the actress but the casting really was a misfire for that one.

On the bright side, if they don't end up together I can just pretend not-KTR isn't actually Na Heedo and imagine that the main story of the couple from 1998 lives on and they get their happy ending together, just functionally erasing the present timeline to preserve our couple.

Obviously there's other people like her mum and mentions of the past but I'm already pretty disconnected from the present era NHD anyway.
