Seoyeon had already played "Jin Yeonseo" in Hyper Action Star. Of course, back then, the character was named "Yeohwa."

But the current "Yeonseo" was different from "Yeohwa."

Not because the character traits had changed, but because the context had.

"Yeonseo grew up in a laboratory, never having the chance to interact properly with people."

Perhaps because she was a test subject, she had never learned the emotions most people pick up naturally.

That was precisely her current state.

"In a way, she’s similar to me."

When Seoyeon first received the complete script for Mine, that thought struck her.@@novelbin@@

She resembled Yeonseo.

"This time, it’s not my past life—it’s me, now."

It might sound ridiculous, but Seoyeon felt her mental state had regressed compared to her previous life.

No, saying "regressed" was misleading.

It was more like reclaiming her original self.

When she was first born into this world, she was closer to her past self than to "Ju Seoyeon."

A being who mistakenly believed she couldn’t feel emotions.

As she grew and came to understand differently, she became who she was now.

Thus, those who knew Seoyeon’s past often said:

"Seoyeon was so mature and composed as a child."

She was aware of this. It was true.

She had been that way until she gradually learned emotions, up until adolescence.

After going through her teenage years, she became the person she was now. But Seoyeon didn’t particularly miss her old self.

Sure, she might have been composed and mature back then, but she hadn’t truly been an adult.

Even if she sometimes cringed looking back, she liked who she was now—a teenage girl with a vibrant emotional spectrum.

"And young Yeonseo is like who I was before I became myself now."

She was like a younger version of herself, closer to her past life.

A child who didn’t know how to mimic emotions, who didn’t know what expression to wear or how to react based on feelings.
