After noticing this, she manages to [[SubvertedTrope subvert]] this: Minhwan sells his J Pharma stocks (which Jiwon predicted to go well) for MW Industry stocks (the firm that would later crash) and the soup Sumin meant to spill on Jiwon’s shirt is spilled on Minhwan's instead.

** The concept does return when Juran Yang starts to experience similar events from Jiwon’s life, such as discovering her husband cheating on her and developing cancer cells in her stomach. Jiwon is able to help Juran before it’s too late, which brings her to the realization that she must replicate other elements from the previous timeline to assure others don’t take on her original fate. She does this by texting Minhwan, pretending to be some other girl, and becoming his “mistress”, like Sumin was in the previous timeline.
