On that note, I wouldn't surprise if he's also the antagonist (director of ark) of this story like a different version of himself time traveling (I can think of a reason like maybe he doesn't have power and was adopted by Mr. Hong and Mr. Hong died in front of him like being powerless in that timeline made him mad so he was experimenting shit)
I'm saying this as someone who haven't read the novel and just overthinking stuffs coz this is a GOOD READ
pretty sure he was just making stuff up as the janitor. he was never him, that was his actual older brother. i think it’s just current him and little him that exist, with no additional time travelling versions of himself.
not sure why little mc recognised current mc as his brother, but i just assume that since 1. mc’s real older brother couldn’t show his face a lot so little mc forgot and 2. only mc’s older brother would know little mc’s true name (since woojin isn’t his actual name)
So because he travelled through time, two of him exist and the current him pretended to be the janitor? But clearly we saw that he didn't have the memories of the "janitor" version of him, he was making shit up or I'm reading it wrong
Does that mean there's another version of him that existed way before the time traveling we saw at the first few chapters? I'm thinking there's a few version of him (time traveling) that's why there's a reality where his brother knew that it was him as the janitor (like his other self because he can't be teaching & being the janitor at the same time, it's only possible if there's another version of him time traveling)
OR it's the time travel loophole? that's only reason I can think of.
