What I wanted to tell you is…
I like you.
I like you a lot.

A TIME CALLED YOU
Min-ju.
Hey, In-gyu.
If you're looking into the photos, I'll come.
It's dangerous for you to go alone.
Okay.
-Hello. -Welcome.
Have you ever seen
a male high school student taking photos around here?
-Photos? -Well…
Photos like these.
No, I haven't seen anyone.
He's asking if you've seen a student taking photos.
I haven't.
-How about you? -I don't know anything.
We haven't seen anyone.
Okay, thank you.
Please take a good look.
These weren't printed here.
HAPPINESS PHOTO STUDIO
In-gyu.
Si-heon not telling you about moving away
wasn't because he didn't think of you as a friend
but because he considered you a very close friend.
He said he didn't want to see you sad
during the little time you guys have left.
I just happened to find out while talking about something--
I don't want to talk about Si-heon.
I don't want you to make excuses for him either.
I understand. I won't talk about it, then.
Min-ju.
If…
you still like Si-heon,
you can go out with him.
-What? -You guys don't have much time left.
So if you two like each other,
you and Si-heon should spend time together
instead of spending time with me to be nice to me.
I've never spent time with you just to be nice to you.
You are a good friend to me. And Si-heon…
Both you and Si-heon are good friends.
Sure, it's true that I used to like Si-heon before.
Not sure why Kwon Min-ju…
I mean, I'm not sure why I told Si-heon I liked him,
causing a situation like this--
Stop talking to me like that.
I'm not Si-heon.
Don't talk to me like you're no longer the Kwon Min-ju I used to know.
You may have been different from others in the past, but I liked you that way.
I liked you, Kwon Min-ju, for who you were.
But you're acting like this now to become someone that Si-heon likes.
You are you.
In-gyu.
There's something I need to tell both you and Nam Si-heon.
What do you wanna tell us?
Nam Si-heon, come have a seat.
I told you about my dream, didn't I?
The one where I was Han Jun-hee instead of Kwon Min-ju.
I remember that.
That wasn't a dream. It was all real.
I'm Han Jun-hee.
I'm not Kwon Min-ju, but Han Jun-hee from 2023.
I'm not pretending my personality has changed for Si-heon.
And, Nam Si-heon, you don't like me right now
because I'm not Kwon Min-ju.
So there's no reason for you two to be fighting because of me.
Okay? Got it?
Oh, right.
Here's proof I'm not Kwon Min-ju. Take a look at this.
Min-ju's handwriting in the earlier pages and mine in the later pages.
Can you tell the difference?
The handwriting is actually different.
So you're saying that you came to 1998 from 2023.
How's that possible?
Right after the first anniversary of my boyfriend's death,
someone sent me a cassette player and tape.
I fell asleep listening to it, and when I woke up, I was here.
So what you're saying is
that you fell asleep listening to music, and when you woke up, it was 1998.
And you woke up in the body of Kwon Min-ju, a total stranger.
That's right.
Do you understand what I'm saying?
I do.
Actually, I…
knew everything already.
You're not the only one who went through it.
To be honest…
I am not Nam Si-heon.
I was sent by them
from a very distant future.
By who?
Who sent you?
Skynet.
What? Who?
I'm the Terminator sent by Skynet to kill John Connor.
Hey, you weren't sent to kill John Connor.
You were sent to kill his mother, Sarah Connor.
Hey, same difference.
They were trying to kill Sarah Connor to prevent the birth of John Connor.
I guess they all boil down to the same thing.
-Exactly. -Hey!
Come on! That's not what's important here!
Kwon Min-ju.
What you said is even stranger than a sci-fi film.
Listening to music, then waking up in 1998 in someone else's body?
I know it sounds absurd.
It's the truth, whether you guys believe it or not.
And if the attacker isn't caught quickly, Kwon Min-ju will be murdered soon.
Murdered?
What do you mean? Why would you be murdered?
I heard in 2023 that someone would murder Kwon Min-ju
on October 13, 1998.
So if we don't catch the attacker quickly, Kwon Min-ju will be killed,
or the me trapped inside her body will be killed.
Something will happen that cannot be undone.
Fine. It's up to you guys whether you believe me or not.
It's not my problem if you regret it when Min-ju dies.
Hey, Kwon Min-ju.
I think I know what you're talking about.
Do you really get what I'm saying?
Yeah, I'm telling you, I get it.
You're doing this on purpose to get Jung In-gyu and me to reconcile.
I agree.
I mean, I literally told you about every single thing.
What am I supposed to do now if you don't believe me?
Whatever. I give up.
Hey, Kwon Min-ju. Tell us more.
We haven't reconciled yet.
Min-ju.
That really hits the spot.
What do you think?
Knowing her personality,
she was obviously making it up so things wouldn't be awkward between us.
You said you agreed, didn't you?
That's probably it, right?
But
the expression on her face when she told us the story back there,
it didn't look like she was making something up.
She actually looked serious.
And she has changed a lot.
We've both been thinking it was strange.
Her personality has changed, and so has the way she talks.
Even the way she smiles.
On top of that, her eyes
are now different.
The way she looks at me,
somehow…
Just saying they've changed.
Do you think there's any truth to her story?
Well, assuming Min-ju was telling the truth,
then it would explain why she's no longer the Min-ju we used to know.
And it would also explain why she doesn't give me butterflies
as much as she used to.
What did you say?
I don't feel the same way about Min-ju anymore,
so I wasn't really angry when you told me you liked her.
Hey, so you aren't mad at me?
No.
You should've told me.
I felt really guilty toward you after what happened.
That's not the problem right now.
You're leaving soon. What's the point in liking her?
Well, now that you brought it up,
me not telling you I'm moving away
wasn't because I didn't think of you as a friend…
Well…
Well, I mean…
Anyway, I'm sorry I didn't tell you.
So I--
If you're gonna apologize, forget it.
What are you doing? Are you copying me?
Hey, that's my move.
Says who?
-Hey, are you done eating? -Hey!
You're done, right?
Is all this really necessary?
Kwon Min-ju is the one who made me like this.
I thought when I sent the photos, she'd be scared and behave,
but it didn't faze her at all.
Even so, I think she'll be really hurt if everyone sees these pictures.
We must go this far so she gets the message
and stops hanging out with Nam Si-heon.
What? You guys don't want to do this?
-No-- -If that's the case, just go.
No. Let's put them up.
-No one's here, right? Close it. -Let's go.
-Seriously. -Let's go.
-It's scary. -Honestly.
Hey, wait a second.
I must be nervous. My stomach hurts.
-Let me go to the bathroom. -Make it quick.
I'm just a bit scared. Will someone come with me?
I'll go with you. I needed to go too.
Wait here. Be right back.
-We'll be right back. -Honestly.
-Why didn't you go earlier? -I didn't need to.
Huh? What the heck?
What? Did she go?
She must've gotten pissed and left.
Byeon Da-hyeon is really hot-headed.
Hey, it's not like this is the first time.
Let's just go.
We can make it up to her tomorrow.
All right. Let's go.
-Gosh, it's scary. -Tell me about it.
Why did Byeon Da-hyeon want to come to school so late?
Feels like a ghost will appear.
Don't even talk about it. It might really appear.
Byeon Da-hyeon, you're here early.
Are you sleeping?
Hey.
What's going on?
-Isn't that blood? -What is it?
Did someone in our class die?
Su-jin, what is it? Did something happen?
Byeon Da-hyeon is dead.
What?
But the way she was found was a bit strange, so they're saying
it could be a murder.
Apparently, Hye-mi was the first person to find Byeon Da-hyeon.
She must've been really shocked. What should we do?
Can you tell me what Da-hyeon looked like when you first saw her?
I came into the classroom,
and Da-hyeon was lying face down.
At first, I thought she was sleeping, so I called her.
But she didn't respond, so I looked…
and there was a pool of blood under her chair.
I see.
Do you remember seeing anyone on your way to the classroom?
Or seeing anyone coming out of your classroom?
I don't think I saw anyone.
I left home early this morning,
so I thought I was the first one to get to school.
-Sir. -Yes?
If the culprit stuck around until then and watched me,
doesn't that mean I'm also in danger now?
-No. -Sir.
It's okay. You'll be fine. Calm down.
What do I do now?
-I'm scared. -Calm down.
Let's stop here.
Oh my God.
Is she crying now?
Don't cry.
-Let's go, Ji-hui. -Oh no.
Let's get out of here.
I'm telling you I'm right.
Kwon Min-ju killed Da-hyeon.
You saw how the photos we put up were all gone.
Who else would've taken them down besides Kwon Min-ju?
Kwon Min-ju must've been pissed after seeing the photos
and killed Da-hyeon.
So that means we're going to be next.
But it's not like we put them up because we wanted to.
Hold on. What are you guys talking about?
What photos?
Hey, Lee. Are you finished over there?
All clear.
Hey, what's going on? Has something happened?
No classes today.
-They told us to go home. -Why?
A Junior girl in Class Three died.
It's so scary.
Class Three? Who in Class Three?
Dunno her name. They said she was killed.
The whole school is in chaos.
Guys, go back. Classes are canceled today.
Go home. You guys in the back too.
Nam Si-heon!
Hey, Jung In-gyu.
Apparently, a girl in our class died.
It's not Min-ju.
It's not Kwon Min-ju?
I saw her come to school earlier.
Then who died?
Byeon Da-hyeon.
What? What do you mean Byeon Da-hyeon?
Nam Si-heon, Jung In-gyu.
Kwon Min-ju, are you okay?
Did you hear about Byeon Da-hyeon?
Yes. Actually, I have something to tell you about that.
But I can't tell you here.
They told everyone to go home anyway.
Let's go to my house.
Okay.
We had it all wrong.
It wasn't my attacker who sent me those photos, but Byeon Da-hyeon.
Why would she take photos of you and send them to you?
She was annoyed to see us getting close,
so she sent me those photos.
To scare me.
How did you find that out?
Ji Yong-seon and Park Ji-hui told me.
But because I didn't get scared,
she secretly took photos of me getting changed for PE.
And last night, they put dozens of those photos up in the classroom.
Well…
I think Byeon Da-hyeon's death has something to do with me.
How so?
When people got to class in the morning, the photos were already gone.
No way Byeon Da-hyeon took them down.
That means someone else came and took down all the photos.
That's right.
So, if we had to guess,
while Byeon Da-hyeon and the others were putting up the photos,
the culprit hid, watched them, and then took them all down.
Then killed Byeon Da-hyeon.
So, could it be that your attacker
and whoever killed Byeon Da-hyeon are the same person?
Actually, that's what I thought too.
But the more you think about it, the less it makes sense.
My attacker almost killed me that day.
But this time, the culprit took down my photos
as if they were taking revenge on my behalf.
Back to square one, then.
We'll only know after the investigation.
Byeon Da-hyeon's case might be completely unconnected to yours.
So don't worry too much.
Are you leaving?
Yeah, there's no need to worry right now.
You must've had a big shock this morning, so get some rest.
-I'll just see In-gyu off. -Okay.
About the culprit killing Byeon Da-hyeon for trying to harm Min-ju
and taking the photos down…
-Maybe this is what they were thinking. -What?
If I were the culprit…
"No one but me can harass or mess with Kwon Min-ju."
"Because she belongs to me forever."
"So it's okay for me to harm her,
but I can never tolerate anyone else messing with her."
Hypothetically.
You scared me.
What crazy person would murder
just because they didn't like others touching what's theirs?
Right? I was just using my imagination.
-I'm off. -Okay, see you.
Nam Si-heon, did you make all these yourself?
Yeah.
You're quite good with your hands. You could pursue it as a career.
-I could? -Yeah, you're better than professionals.
I just do it as a hobby.
Don't be cocky about your good grades.
Learn a skill because you never know what will happen.
In 2023, it'll be difficult to get a job even if you graduate from a university.
It's a tough world to live in.
If you say so, Ms. Han Jun-hee.
What? You're Han Jun-hee, aren't you?
Didn't you think
I was just saying crazy things to get you and In-gyu to reconcile?
At first, I did, but I don't anymore.
Why not?
Your story seems too consistent to be made up.
And unlike before, the look in your eyes is…
What about it?
Never mind. Anyway,
because you keep repeating it, I'm starting to believe you.
And I've become curious
about how Han Jun-hee lived in 2023.
You said that you were successful at work
and had many friends as well, right?
What else?
Why? So, you can tease me about it?
That's not it.
I just want to know more about what the person I like,
Han Jun-hee, is like.
Did you even realize how casually you just told me again
that you liked me?
You're right.
-Hey, let me bring something to drink. -Okay.
-What would you like? -Oh, anything is fine.
Anything.
Han Jun-hee.
You can't continue to have butterflies for Nam Si-heon.
He's even good at drawing.
Yeon-jun.
Did you paint this?
Yeah.
Who is it?
-A friend. -A friend?
What kind of a friend?
Just a friend.
Hey. The way you avoid the question is suspicious.
-Was she your first love? -Maybe.
Why?
Why is this painting here?
Why?
Hey, Han Jun-hee. I have orange and grape.
Pick one.
Hey, what's up with you?
Han Jun-hee. What's wrong with you?
You were Koo Yeon-jun all along.
From the beginning.
You were Koo Yeon-jun from the very beginning.
What?
Jun-hee!
Hey, Han Jun-hee!
Hey, come on! Wake up!
Hey, I really thought something happened to you.
Are you okay?
Na-eun.
What are you doing here?
I called you so many times, but you didn't answer.
That's why I came.
Hey, what's up with you?
-Hey, where are you going? -Sorry, I'll explain later.
Hey!
What brings you here?
Nam Si-heon is Koo Yeon-jun, right?
Just like how I went into Min-ju's body in 1998,
Yeon-jun also went into Nam Si-heon's body.
Right?
Please tell me.
You know everything already.
Don't you?
I'll answer you.
Jun-hee.
Are you…
Are you Nam Si-heon…
or Koo Yeon-jun?
Who the hell are you?
Jun-hee.
YEAR 2002
Hey, we'll win again, won't we?
-Our national team… -They're amazing.
I'm really proud of them.
Let's go, Korea!
Here you are.
How long are you planning to stay?
For a week. So until next Wednesday.
Okay, I understand.
Please fill out this form.
It wasn't easy to book a hotel room.
The World Cup is taking place, so it'll be the same everywhere else.
You must be returning from overseas.
Yes, I'm studying in the States.
The whole nation is celebrating, so you've come at a good time.

The inmate declined to see you.
He said he has no intention of seeing you in the future,
so you shouldn't come back.
Could you please tell me how I can deposit money into his inmate account?
Yeah, don't worry. I'll be back in time.
Sorry?
I didn't get to see In-gyu.
Yeah.
I'll look after myself, so don't worry.
Take care of yourself too, Mom.
Okay.
I HOPE THIS MUSIC TAKES YOU TO YOUR HAPPIEST MOMENT
Nam Si-heon, put it down!
-Hey, put it down! -Why?
When the lights outside the window
Start dimming one by one
I write a letter to the sky…
Hurry, run! Nam Si-heon!
Let's go!
But I still cannot forget you
So I gather my tears
And send them off to the sky
Though I'm not your love
If you look for me
I'll lower myself to lie next to you
And I'll tell you That because I cannot forget you
I'll just continue to love you
Dear, I'm going to wait
When my letter of tears reaches the sky
Someday, you'll come back
To me
I'll believe it
And gather my tears
Though I'm not your love
If you look for me
I'll lower myself to lie next to you
And I'll tell you That because I cannot forget you
I'll just continue to love you
Dear, I'm going to wait…
-Move. -He was in a car accident.
He's been unconscious the whole way here.
-His vitals? -Seventy over fifty.
One, two.
-Prepare the defibrillator. -Yes, Doctor.
One, two.
Twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen.
Doctor, it's ready.
-Charge to 150 joules. -Okay.
One, two, three, shock.
200 joules.
One, two, three, shock.
Sir.
Sir!
Sir, can you hear me?
Yeon-jun.
Yeon-jun!
Mom! It's Yeon-jun!
Are you okay?
It's Mom. Do you recognize me?
My goodness. I thought you were going to die.
Yeon-jun, you're in the hospital now.
You woke up for the first time in a week.
Do you know how worried we've been?
Who are you?
What's wrong, Yeon-jun?
Don't you know who we are?
Yeon-jun?
Yes, Koo Yeon-jun.
You do remember your name, don't you?
Is it really you, Yeon-jun?
I missed you.
Yeon-jun. Oh dear…
PATIENT NAME: KOO YEON-JUN
What's wrong, Yeon-jun?
Yeon-jun, don't get up.
-Quick, go get the doctor. -Okay.
What…
what year is it now?
It's 2007, of course.
2007?
I was definitely in 2002.
What's wrong, Yeon-jun?
Yeon-jun.
In my dream, I was Han Jun-hee, not Kwon Min-ju.
And you. You weren't Nam Si-heon, but Koo Yeon-jun.
No.
It can't be.
This can't be…
This can't be real.
This year, 2007, marks the tenth year since the IMF crisis in Korea.
Meeting this year's target of 4% in the economic growth rate will mean
that Korea will enter the era of one trillion dollars in GDP.
This would put us in the top ten in the world.
But despite becoming an economically developed country,
businesses still face challenges they must overcome.
Based on the doctor's diagnosis,
thankfully, there's nothing wrong with your brain.
He said that your memory loss
is due to the shock of the accident.
I would like to know more…
about the accident.
You…
got into a car accident while going on a trip with your friend.
A friend?
Yes.
Tae-ha was driving the car.
Do you remember?
No.
I was definitely on the bus by myself.
I can't remember at all…
who Tae-ha is…
or why I was in that car.
Where's this friend called Tae-ha now?
Before they could even try anything,
he died at the scene.
If you can't remember, you don't have to force yourself to do so.
What's important is
that you're Koo Yeon-jun, my one and only little brother.
That's all you need to know.
In the process of repeated layoffs and increasing contracted workers…
Koo Yeon-jun.
…people relying on salaries…
Koo Yeon-jun.
…weaken them, resulting in polarization.
Since 2003,
the gap in salary between the top 20 and the bottom 20% has risen
for four consecutive years.
And in 2006, the highest gap was recorded, where the difference was 6.95 times more.
Due to this, there are calls for shifting the focus to welfare
and the distribution of wealth, but some are still arguing
that we need the drivers of growth to develop further
until Korea is firmly established as…
Jung In-gyu!
What's wrong with Min-ju?
I'm asking you why Min-ju is like this.
Hey, Jung In-gyu.
Say something. Why is she like this?
I killed Min-ju.
What are you talking about?
Nam Si-heon.
I killed her.
Yeon-jun, what's wrong?
Did you have a nightmare?
We're home. Let's get out.
Let's go in.
Here you go.
All right. Eat up.
Hospital food wasn't great, was it? You probably haven't eaten properly.
What's wrong? Don't you like it?
What would you like to eat? Shall I cook something else?
No, it's okay.
Why don't you try some ribs? You love them, right?
Here, have this and--
Mom, let him take his time.
NOKSAN BUS TERMINAL
WE WILL CLOSE DOWN THIS SATURDAY THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT
Get closer, you three.
All right. On the count of three.
Three, two, one.
Sir.
You're…
You're Si-heon, right?
How have you been?
But
what are you doing here?
So, what you're saying is that you're actually Si-heon,
but you're inside Koo Yeon-jun's body now?
Yes.
Min-ju's--
I mean, the dead boyfriend Jun-hee talked about.
You must be thinking I'm the crazy one this time, right?
Han Jun-hee
woke up in Kwon Min-ju's body.
And Nam Si-heon
woke up in Koo Yeon-jun's body.
It means that everything Min-ju said back then was true.
Yes.
How have you been since then?
After we lost Min-ju,
the whole family was devastated for quite a while.
My sister just cried all day, every day.
For a while, I couldn't take care of the shop either.
On top of that, the world has changed.
Nobody listens to tapes or CDs anymore.
So,
I decided to close the record shop and open a café in Seoul.
-A café? -Yes.
Actually, it's because of Min-ju--
I mean, it's all because of Han Jun-hee.
Back then, Min-ju told me that I'd become a café owner.
If I want to survive in this competitive industry,
I should learn how to be a barista in advance.
The image of Min-ju sitting over there studying…
is still so vivid to me.
If only I had paid a bit more attention to the things Han Jun-hee said
about what would happen in the future…
I could've prevented such a terrible thing.
Sir.
It wasn't your fault.
Back then, none of us…
were able to believe her.
You're right.
There's no point in regretting it now.
By any chance,
have you heard anything about me
since I was in that car accident in 2002?
I heard you were in the hospital after being in a serious accident.
But I haven't heard anything since then.
What about In-gyu?
What happened to In-gyu?
Oh, In-gyu.
Hey, Kwon Min-ju. Watch it!
-Sorry, it was a mistake. -You did it on purpose.
-It was a mistake! -She said it was a mistake.
A mistake? I was right next to her.
It was definitely on purpose.
Nam Si-heon, if I was going to do it on purpose,
I'd do it like this.
-Like this! -Kwon Min-ju!
-In-gyu! -Get out of my way.
-Hey. -You just made a big mistake.
-Let her off. -I didn't do it on purpose!
-Hey, Kwon Min-ju! -Get her.
Kwon Min-ju, you're dead meat if I catch you.
Hey, Nam Si-heon. Get her quickly.
