Yes! I agree with your theory! I think that too!!!
I think where people are getting confused, is that what we are seeing here, is the 9 year old Real world coming back, which is when the otherworldly Seonwoo went back to his own world. So now we are seeing the real world seonwoo, as is he is starting on chapter 1.
So the question is, since the otherworldly seonwoo was back in his world at 1-60, where is he now? Since there is no world to return too, since he returned in ch 1. Does that mean he really does then??

I just been using my delulu mind
Game jehee + game seonwoo
And real world jehee + real world seonwoo
I also re-read chap 1&2
• Game seonwoo migrated when playing on his pc as an adult, and we got that he migrated and found out when he woke-up, help jehee and was confuse with the system
• saw a picture of seonwoo with dark circles
Chapter 61
• He is not surprised with the system, like he already knew about it
• Studies hard, and build the happy management causing him dark circles ┗( T﹏T )┛
I agree! I just skimmed ch 1, and from what I'm gathering "game" mc is who we were following all along. And he probably forgot or thought he was dreaming of being from another universe because he went to "earth" at 9. Based on what his parents says after reuniting on earth, he said he wanted to be a hunter (real job from his real world that the "game" mc told "earth" parents). So, it would make sense for people to not believe him or think of it as an active imagination. And as the "game" mc grows up in "earth", he probably agrees that it was his imagination.
He played what I'm assuming is the same game we see 9 year old "earth" mc playing in ch 61. So I guess, whenever one plays the game, they switch?
"Earth" mc played it first at 9 y.o., and "game" mc played it at 29 y.o..
"Both went on with their lives in the opposite universe, and only the "Earth" mc knows his og home. I'm hoping they dive deeper into this!
This is my interpretation of the story so far:
I think the Seonwoo we follow in Chapter 1 is the Hunter-world Seonwoo, while the Seonwoo shown in Chapter 61 is the original Earth Seonwoo.
This is based on the following clues:
In Chapter 1, Seonwoo already has:
•a Hunter ID,
•the Happiness Management Clinic,
•an apartment,
•and an established life in the hunter world.
This suggests that someone had already been living there before the protagonist became aware of it.
In Chapter 61, we learn that the original Earth Seonwoo was transported into the game world when he was 9 years old. He spent 20 years there, eventually built the Happiness Management Clinic, and lived a quiet life.
My theory of the timeline
•Earth Seonwoo (age 9) is transported into the game world.
•He grows up there for 20 years, creates the Happiness Management Clinic, and becomes the Seonwoo of that world.
•After those 20 years, he returns to his original world.
•At the same time, the Hunter-world Seonwoo is sent to the game world.
•Because of the sudden transfer, the Hunter-world Seonwoo loses or confuses his memories and believes the game world was only a fictional game he played.
•This Hunter-world Seonwoo is the one we follow in Chapter 1, which explains why he already has an apartment, a Hunter ID, and a clinic, but doesn't recognize them.
•The Earth Seonwoo's perspective is what we see in Chapter 61, revealing what really happened 20 years earlier.
Conclusion
Based on this interpretation:
Chapter 1-60 follows the Hunter-world Seonwoo.
Chapter 61 follows the original Earth Seonwoo.
This theory also explains why the Seonwoo in Chapter 1 doesn't know Lee Jehee personally—because while the Earth Seonwoo was living quietly in the game world, the Hunter-world Seonwoo was living his own separate life until the two worlds became connected.
We are seeing the perspective of the other seonwoo, so the one we see in Chapter 1-60 is still alive, after all jehee turn back time. (=・ω・=)
