All the while, the teaser offers a glimpse into the budding romance surrounding an enthralling love triangle as well as some mystery.
Jun hee (played by Jeon Yeo-been), who lost the love of her life named Yeon-jun (portrayed by Ahn Hyo-seop), travels back to 1998 and encounters an 18-year-old boy called Si-hun (also played by Ahn Hyo-seop) with an uncanny resemblance to Yeon-jun and his friend, In-Gyu (Kang Hoon). When she travels to 1998, she also becomes an 18-year-old teenager called Min-joo, who has a completely different personality. As she unravels the secrets behind her journey, she realizes that fate has a lot more in store for her.
