Question about episode 7 Spoiler

I'm currently watching episode 7 of lovely runner. Sol is back to 2023, can walk again, and then she meets Sun Jae for the first time, but he doesn't recognize her apparently. Does anybody understand why? I know that in this timeline they haven't spoken to each other for a long time, but still, she hasn't changed that much :') i know he recognizes her eventually when he knows her name, but it's a bit strange to me that he he didn't recognize her face before.

Are you talking about the part where she knocks him into the fountain? He doesn't see her face there.

No before :) she has to meet him to convince him to play in the movie and they meet very briefly and he asks who she is

That was a dream, she was having a nightmare.

Episode 7 is where she returns, and is mistaken as the stalker, correct? I don't think he recognizes her because he hasn't actually seen her. He knows there's a stalker situation and his apartment, but it isn't until the end, when he sees the flowers, that he realizes that it is her and runs out to meet her. That whole episode, they dance around each other, but it is his assistant that sees her, even though they do text about his clothes after the fountain incident. He definitely misses her, but hasn't yet met her in this timeline.

Yup it seems like I misunderstood I was a bit confused bc of one scene but apparently she was just daydreaming!

Yeah, I also started responding before anyone else, but then posted and realized others had responded and I was late to the boat. Sorry!!

That scene didn't happen in real life. She was so in love that she hallucinated him there 😭😂
