(played by Byun Woo-seok), a moment when he gave up his will to live, and the death of the famous artist 'Ryu Sung-jae' (played by Byun Woo-seok), who kept him alive, led to the death of a desperate fanatic fan, 'Im Seol' (played by Kim Hye-yun). (played by Kim Hae-yun), who is desperate after the death of famous artist Ryu Sung-jae (played by Byun Woo-seok), travels back in time to the year 2008 in order to keep her alive. 　However, it was surrounded by controversy as it reminded the viewer of the late Jung Hyun, who suddenly passed away in 2017.

The background was set in 2008, 15 years before 2023, which clearly shows the historical contrast. 　Regarding the suggestion that the first broadcast date was 8 April, the birthday of the late Jung-hyun, he clarified, "It was decided sequentially according to the organising order of the existing tvN Monday-Tuesday drama block, and we inform you that it is practically impossible to intentionally set the date. Meanwhile, 'Run with Sonje on Your Back' airs every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50pm.", are viewers being too suspicious? ... Impossible connections seen from explanation
