I wouldn't call the Polar Opposite Cast a cameo because when look at the starting release dates in AniList, the Polar Opposites oneshot was in 2021 and this chapter had to be in 2018-19 (2020 for good measure) when it happened. The author must have known something because its like revealing a pokemon a generation early and with this one, the author may or may not know if Polar Opposites is gonna be green lit in the first place. Im honestly amazed at this one

As far as I understand, this series started in its original webtoon (vertical) format in mid-late 2019 before being serialized as a comic in Jan 2020. Regardless, that's still ~1 year before the oneshot version of The Polar Opposite You And Me in Jan 2021 (which also wasn't colored, so their colors would've had to be known too), so that would definitely be some crazy planning… However, as the “would”s indicate, I think there's a likelier explanation. We are reading the 3rd version of this work. It went webtoon -> comic -> comic volumes. These volumes came much later, in 2023, only after the success of The Polar Opposite You And Me. So isn't it more likely that Agasawa simply added the cameo then? This is checkable, as both previous versions are still buyable, but unless someone does and proves this explanation wrong, I think it is most likely.

Edit: Seems that I was wrong and that my estimates for when this chapter released was way off, with it releasing after The Polar Opposite You And Me oneshot. Well in that case, yeah, still no planning beyond knowing their colors required.

Oh, so it had multiple versions!? That's interesting. I really do think the other versions should be checked out, and the date of this chapter (Chapter 27) on all versions should be checked to see if it was planned or not

What?

Today seems to be the day for big twists. Another manga I was reading also had a chapter drop today with a big twist.

The cameos were only added in the volume releases
Logicked 😎.

Edit:
Oh lol wtf you're right. I think I get it now, it's nothing too deep. Asagawa's oneshot for You And I Are Polar Opposites was published in January 2021, while Ch. 27 of the webtoon came out in May 2021. Correct me if I'm wrong though, this is just what I came up with after 5 minutes of research.
I didn't have the dates that granularly. But makes sense.

But the webtoon on manga-mee also has this frame. Was it redrawn too?

I think we may need more than five minutes to get the answer we really need😅
