Or maybe, the writers decided never to show the significance of Jae-hee remembering his whole past so that in the last episode they could focus on Sang-hyuk and Baek-ryun only. However, if that’s the move they pulled, it’s a shame that they ended such a wonderful character like Jae-hee without a strong conclusion, just to rush the series’ end.
