    SPOILERS - the ML first encounters the FL in Switzerland. His fiancee (they have an arranged  marriage) is visiting him but he's not interested in her and spends most of their time together looking elsewhere and taking pictures of the scenery. While taking pictures, he's distracted when he sees the FL and takes her picture. And then he hears her recording a suicide message and interrupts her to ask her to take his and his fiancee's picture. He continues to think about her while his fiancee is visiting and from time to time thereafter. He does't recognize the FL from their encounter in Switzerland when he meets her again, but quickly takes steps to protect her (and fully falls for her soon after) again.

    The wormhole from the end of the first season sends the ML into the FL's past. He meets a version of the FL who has not met him yet. He still loves her and protects her. They are both sent into the past just like the FL was in the first season, but the ML's presence distorts the timeline. An alternate version of his past self also exists in this timeline. That version of the ML also falls for the FL.

    The leads didn't know each others' names when they were children and through a misunderstanding the ML thought the FL's friend's name was the FL's name so they don't recognize each other when they meet again as adults. Due to certain circumstances, the ML is advised to try and look for the differences between the FL and the girl he knew when he was younger, and it takes a long time for the misunderstanding to be resolved. He falls for her again during that time.

    The ML says that he fell for the FL several times and gives examples, although I personally didn't find them very compelling.
