That's what I thought too, it makes more sense that minchan is a fragment of seoho reincarnated in that body that happens to be the same as seoho than they being 2 completely different people. I mean they have 2 completely different personalities but bihwan often saw something of seoho in minchan
There’s also still the plot point with the Goddess of Births to take place (they said they knew a way to see a soul’s past lives). If Minchan really does have nilch to do with Seoho’s soul, that’d turn out moot right?
Totally forgot about that but yes!
If the plot takes the road of minchan and seoho being two completely different people it would be more angsty I guess but it's more coherent for minchan to be his own person but with some of seoho traits from part of his soul
I don't know if Minchan is someone who just looks like Seoho and that that guy wants to use his body is a vessel to reincarnate Seoho (while erasing Minchan's soul) or if Minchan is already a result of some fragments of Seoho being placed in that body in the beginning by that guy, replacing then the original owner from the start (since Binhan found him by smelling Seoho soul in him). It could also be that coincidentally Minchan is a person who born from a fragment of Seoho that found a way to reincarnate and also happened to have the same appearance and the guy wants to put the other fragments inside and awake the soul as Seoho, not a reincarnation.
