im in the middle of ep 4 rn and im confused and curious as to why iu plays aesoon and then also her first daughter…
I think we’ll explore this more in the future episodes but it could be because; - Seeing IU in both roles may create a stronger emotional connection for the audience. When the daughter reflects on her mother’s past, it’s not just a distant story it’s visually and emotionally intertwined with her own life. This can make moments of realization and heartbreak even more powerful. - could symbolize how the past continues to shape the present. As the daughter grows up, she may come to understand her mother’s hardships, choices, and sacrifices in a more personal way perhaps even seeing herself in her mother’s younger self.
