In the 10-minute-plus highlight, the shocking moment unfolds as Soo-ho (played by Kim Dong-jun) — the ex-boyfriend thought to be dead — returns in front of Seol-ah (Park Min-young) as Jun-beom (played by Kim Jung-hyun) after undergoing facial reconstruction. 

Viewers reacted with comments like "The acting feels so real that it's getting scary" and "This is truly insane acting," as Kim Jung-hyun’s chilling performance goes viral.
