THIS DRAMA IS PURELY FICTIONAL AND IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH...
ACTUAL PEOPLE, ORGANIZATIONS, PRODUCTS, OR INCIDENTS.
I was saved after 31 days.
I broke the record of the survivor who lasted the longest...
in the collapse of Sampoong Department Store.
A week has passed.
My dad never came to see me...
while I was in the hospital.
This is a certification from Yujung Constructions to you.
They promised to cover your tuition...
and hire you as soon as you graduate.
- But the compensation... - Teacher.
Why hasn't my dad visited me?
His name wasn't on the casualty list.
Your father passed away.
Before you were rescued,
he thought you had died...
and jumped off a building.
I don't know where you hid it,
but I doubt it's more precious than your remaining daughter.
If you want to save her,
you better get up.
Give it some thought while you're lying there.
Think about who you must side with to save yourself.
EPISODE 15
Hello. Can Mr. Kim talk?
I'm not sure.
I heard there was a pupillary response.
Let's hurry.
I was told that he had regained consciousness.
Do you... Do you think he can hear us?
Mr. Kim, open your eyes.
Do you remember where you put the package?
Say something!
Mr. Im.
Mr. Kim.
Ji Ah is doing well.
If you can hear me, don't worry about anything.
Please hang in there...
so Ji Ah will have a father growing up.
Mr. Kim.
Please move aside. Mr. Kim. Do you hear me?
Please go out. He needs to rest.
Use this phone to reach me from now on.
I did need a way to reach you...
since I could only talk to your future with mine.
Ms. Han, how much have I found out in the future?
Did I find the package?
You did,
but since Mr. Kim Jin Ho was in an accident yesterday,
you probably don't have it in the future anymore.
Since he's bedridden,
he probably couldn't have delivered it to my mom.
You recognize him, don't you?
99 PERCENT MATCH WITH PARK JOO YOUNG'S FINGERPRINTS
How do you know him?
He tried to kill Mr. Kim.
I suspect him of killing my father,
but due to lack of evidence, I couldn't catch him.
Have things changed there? Has it been revealed?
No. I saw him in the alleyway in front of Mr. Kim's yesterday.
But that proves nothing.
Chairman Yu must've hired him.
We need to catch Park Joo Young first.
We need to catch him in order to retrieve the package...
and save you in the future.
Your food's here.
Let me know if you crave any side dishes,
and I'll make them for you.
Thank you.
Eat up if you want to grow as big as me.
- What's wrong? - Hello?
My teeth are already healthy.
What's wrong?
- Were you very startled? - Hi.
Is something wrong?
She seems very shook up.
She heard the phone ring and panicked.
Don't cry, Ji Ah. Don't cry.
It's okay.
Ji Ah, were you very startled?
You'll feel better after some sleep.
When is my dad coming?
Do you miss him?
I also miss my dad a lot.
Where is he?
He's a bit far away.
That's why it'll take a very long time...
for me to reach him.
No. I had thought he was far away,
but it turned out that he was always by my side.
Just as much as you miss him...
No, he'll miss you...
a lot more than you miss him.
I'll stay by your side until you see him again.
So tell me every time you're in pain...
or in fear of something.
Okay?
Promise me.
Let's go to bed.
What if Mr. Kim falls unconscious again?
It'll take some time until he fully recovers.
He's been hanging in there all this time,
so let's wait a bit more.
Until when?
What more can we, from the past, do?
If one thing changes, another misfortune happens.
Ae Ri is...
Mr. Im.
It's not over until it's over.
Let's save Ms. Han.
I'll keep an eye on Mr. Kim's progress.
HYUN CHAE
- Hello? - You should...
come home.
I'll leave.
You should be...
with Da Bin.
KIM SEO JIN
Ms. Han, I'm off to find Kim Jin Ho.
A month has passed,
so he might have regained consciousness.
I'll head to the prosecution once I retrieve the package.
- Hello, Ms. Han? - Did you meet with Mr. Kim Jin Ho?
How is he?
He's still unconscious.
I didn't find the package.
And Seo Do Kyun died.
Was it Chairman Yu again?
- No. - Then who was it?
Why then? How?
Is your wife perhaps involved?
It'll soon be that day.
The day...
I saw my wife with Seo Do Kyun...
after tracking Da Bin's toy.
In your timeline,
I still don't know, do I?
I don't think you do.
How should I tell him? Should I just say it?
No, don't tell him anything.
He'll soon...
find out anyway.
Go, Hyun Chae. Get out of here!
Get out of here. Just go!
Run away as fast as you can.
Hyun Chae...
I'll collect my things and leave soon.
In your state?
Just stay.
I LOVE YOU.
WITH YOU, AT SAMWOON PARK
Don't pretend like you know it all.
I'll bet my life...
with someone worthy as I'd like.
Ji Ah, what are you doing still up?
It's late. You should go to bed.
Ji Ah, say that again. What did you just say to me?
I... saw everything.
HAN AE RI
He's not answering.
I'm in your neighborhood and will be there soon.
Ji Ah,
it must've been terrifying for you.
Ji Ah.
Would you be able...
to recognize that guy if you saw him again?
I'm amazed to hear that.
How big was it?
- About this big. - You liar.
Are you Superintendent Park Joo Young?
Who's asking?
We have questions...
regarding a recent attempted murder case.
Will you come with us?
I'm afraid you have the wrong person.
We'd appreciate your cooperation.
Which district station are you boys from?
It'd be better for you to come with us voluntarily.
Lead the way.
You know Mr. Kim Jin Ho, right?
- Who? - The man living at...
330-29 Geonnam-dong.
- Don't you know him? - I'm drawing a blank.
Where were you at 9 p.m. on September 27?
It was after hours, so I was probably home.
Can anyone verify that?
I live alone.
Please just answer me truthfully.
Between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. on September 27,
your cell phone...
was pinged in the vicinity of 330-29 Geonnam-dong.
Is this how you investigate cases?
Then you should question every owner of every cell phone...
that was also in that area.
Don't you agree?
Well, there's a witness.
A witness? Who?
Did this person really see me trying to kill a person?
The witness is here...
and will be identifying you soon.
I see.
Go ahead.
If this turns out to be a bogus claim,
you'll be answering to the trouble you caused.
Ji Ah, is that man the one you saw that night?
It's all right.
He can't see you while you're here,
so take a look at him.
Is he the man you saw?
It seems like your witness failed to identify me,
so how long are you going to keep me here?
Ji Ah, it's all right.
I know this is painful.
You don't have to do this if it hurts too much.
It's him.
What was that, Ji Ah?
It's him.
Are you sure?
Was it that man?
INTERROGATION ROOM
Mr. Park Joo Young. You are under arrest for attempted murder.
Are you all crazy?
You may choose to stay silent.
Everything you say can be and will be used against you.
You have the right to consult an attorney.
Let's go quietly.
Darn it. What's with you all?
Let me go. I said let go!
Okay.
What will happen now?
Will Park Joo Young get locked up in prison?
Mr. Park said he'll share the progress of the investigation.
What about his other crimes?
I hope they could reinvestigate your father's case with this chance.
I don't expect them to do that much.
What's important is that they find out his instigator was...
Chairman Yu.
Both Park Joo Young and Lee Taek Gyu are...
nothing but Chairman Yu's pawns.
Did you talk to me from a month later?
Don't be alarmed and listen up.
Mr. Seo Do Kyun will die in a month.
Why would he die?
Did he have the evidence with him?
Mr. Seo did have it with him,
but it was for another reason that didn't involve Chairman Yu.
So he doesn't know where the evidence is.
What was the other reason?
Come in.
It's the video from the charity concert.
Thank you.
Da Bin, wash up, then come and eat.
Okay.
Wash your hands clean.
Okay.
Da Bin, come here.
Thank you so much.
What do you think? Do you like it?
Go grab a seat. Let's eat.
Mr. Kim.
Mr. Kim, are you all right?
Mr. Park Joo Young, come out.
Come on out.
I'm going to stay silent. I already made myself clear.
We found these in your car.
These shoes have...
the same soles as the footprints found in Mr. Kim Jin Ho's house.
You still have nothing to say?
Mr. Kim came to the police station himself...
and asked me about the accident from 19 years ago.
I can keep Seo Jin under control.
What if he finds that thing Kim Yoo Seok had?
How can he find that when even I couldn't find it?
Don't worry about anything...
and keep doing things as you have.
There's nothing else I worry about as long as I'm under your shadow.
Even if you must quit your job, you can always join my company.
Mr. Park.
Will you continue to be uncooperative?
You can at least answer my question.
Nothing in the Constitution or the Criminal Procedure Code...
says I must cooperate with your investigation,
you jerk.
If you know the law so well,
you know that the evidence can prove your charges.
You're aware that choosing to stay silent...
can be insisted as an attempt to destroy the evidence, right?
Do as you like.
Talk to my attorney if you wish.
I hate that guy.
How can he be like that?
He doesn't care if he gets fired, as if he has nothing to lose.
Doesn't it seem like someone's behind him?
It'll be game set if Kim Jin Ho wakes up and gives his testimony.
How is he?
His condition gets better, then it gets worse the next second.
Write up a report with what we have and give it to the prosecution.
He didn't say anything I can write down...
Yes, sir.
If one gets locked up, one should get freed.
I have a lot of work to do, but I can't move them forward...
without my hands and feet.
I'll move this forward quickly so it won't cause an inconvenience.
And let me know if you need anything as you work.
Hello?
You didn't forget about our trip, did you?
When was it again?
October 9. Da Bin is really excited, so we have to go.
Make sure you're free on that day.
Listen carefully. On October 9,
Da Bin and Hyun Chae will die in a car accident.
And I'll get chased by the police after that accident.
I can't make it on that day.
I don't think I can go on a trip for a while.
I'm busy. I have to go. We'll talk later.
Honey...
Hello?
I remember everything.
Let's meet right now.
On the day I followed Da Bin's location tracker,
I remembered what I saw there...
and how I blacked out.
You said Seo Do Kyun will die in a month.
For what reason?
And who killed him?
How much do you know about Ms. Kang Hyun Chae?
Do I still need to know more?
It's painful to face the truth,
but there's nothing more miserable than believing a lie as the truth.
I'm ready to face...
anything.
Ms. Kang has...
a biological father that no one knows of.
The situation must've been very dangerous.
Mr. Seo got stabbed trying to save Ms. Kang...
when she was held captive by her father.
I thought we'll see a better future if we changed the past.
Do you regret getting a peek of the future...
after meeting me?
In the past, present, and future,
I never expected to live my life without any pain.
However,
there won't be any hope unless I face the truth.
That's one thing I do know.
Inmate 0204, Lee Taek Gyu. You're free to go.
PART 2 WILL SHORTLY BEGIN.
Hey, where are you?
I've got good connections.
No one can keep me down no matter what they do.
Tell the boys to come out.
Let's grab a drink before my big day.
You'll be released on bail tomorrow.
Get there first as soon as you get released.
GEUMDAL PAY PARKING, 63E4057
This one will be your last job.
PAY PARKING
- Car number 4057. - Okay.
LEE HYEON DO, FLIGHT FROM INCHEON TO MIAMI
LEE HYEON DO
It's okay.
But I don't get it.
Once you get the evidence, it'll be over.
- But it keeps getting worse. - That's enough to...
- Hey. - Here you are, sir.
Mr. Park.
Lee Taek Gyu was released.
What? How?
He got released on bail today.
Who paid for him?
I'm not sure about that.
Let Mr. Kim Seo Jin know.
It took so much work to arrest him.
YUJUNG CONSTRUCTIONS
Mr. Kim.
Leave it and go.
It's the draft of the proposal you mentioned.
- If you give me feedback, I'll... - Leave it and go.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Seo.
How much do you know about Kang Hyun Chae?
- Pardon? - Her dad's business failed,
so her parents went to the U.S.
Her family didn't do so well for a moment,
but she's a music student who always grew up in a rich family.
That's the Kang Hyun Chae I knew.
Why are you suddenly bringing this up?
I'll cut to the chase. You need to leave her.
If you don't, you'll die.
You'll be killed in her place...
by her alcoholic biological father.
Remember what I said.
Break up with her. That's the only way you'll live.
Hello?
I need to talk to you in person. I'll be at the studio apartment.
Talk about what?
Is something going on?
I'll talk to you there.
She was already dead when she was found.
Why did you survive by yourself? Are you really Han Ae Ri?
Put Han Ae Ri on the phone!
Mr. Kim?
It was me who just went in there.
Why did you do that?
- Do what? - Trying to kill Hyun Chae.
What's this nonsense?
You tried to kill her and cover it up as an accident.
You've been looking for Han Ae Ri and her mom behind my back.
Who's giving you these orders?
Chairman Yu Seo Il.
- What? - Hyun Chae provoked him first.
Do you know why Kim Jin Ho is unconscious?
Kang Hyun Chae, Kim Jin Ho,
Kwak Song Ja, and Han Ae Ri will all die if they provoke him.
How did they provoke him?
What's it to you?
Do you want to die as well?
Darn it.
Don't be stupid.
Hyun Chae never cared for you.
She was going to leave without you.
SUSPECT'S VEHICLE
48S 3334
SUSPECT'S VEHICLE
32J 7442
NAME: LEE JI YOUNG, NAME: JUNG YU BIN
Ji Ah, what are you looking for?
My friend.
I think I left it at home.
Friend? What friend.
It's my one and only friend.
Do you want me to find it for you?
Really?
- I won't take long. - By yourself?
Someone almost died there, yet you're going there alone?
You're too fearless.
What kind of toy is it?
It must be her favorite toy.
Everyone has something they rely on during hard times.
She needs somewhere to rely on until her father wakes up.
It's just like how I used to call my dad and leave voicemails...
whenever things were tough.
Where's the key?
Ji Ah gave it to me.
- I'll look here first. - Okay.
Why?
Why is Chairman Yu afraid when he has everything?
What does Kim Jin Ho have?
Something no one should watch or listen to.
- Is it not there? - No.
I found it.
Ae Ri. Take a look at this.
KANGAROO STORAGE
It's a receipt from a storage service.
Let's go there.
Over there.
Come in.
- We're here to retrieve something. - Okay.
"September 14".
REPORT ON THE CAUSE OF THE TAEJUNG TOWN COLLAPSE
Are you looking for the documents and a USB?
Yes, that's right.
We'll take them right now.
Someone already took them.
Could you check again, please?
DATE OF RECEIPT: SEPTEMBER 25, 2020
Yes, the owner took them.
When? When did he?
September 25.
That was two days before he was attacked.
They weren't at his house, so where could they be?
SEO DO KYUN
- Could you send them to my phone? - Hello?
Ms. Han, where is...
What?
Seo Do Kyun?
- Where is it? - Where is what?
Where is Kim Jin Ho's package?
I don't have it.
Only he knows where it is.
Let me go.
Where's the package?
I told them that it had been retrieved already.
What are you doing?
Let's talk outside.
Look, Mr. Seo.
You better explain yourself. What are you doing?
I know...
everything.
I remembered them all.
I know Hyun Chae died.
Then...
you must also know that we're not the enemies here.
You'll remember everything in time,
but Ms. Kang put herself in danger.
She was the one who provoked and lied to Chairman Yu...
about having something in her possession.
So...
will she be safe if she gets hold of that package?
No, it's the opposite.
Whoever knows about the package will be targeted by him.
This is all I can tell you.
Let's go.
PLEASE HEAR ME OUT.
Is your biological father an alcoholic?
Is it true that you were adopted by a wealthy family?
I don't understand.
I never told anyone about this.
How did you know?
You need to leave her.
If you don't, you'll die.
You'll be killed in her place...
by her alcoholic biological father.
When did he find you again?
Is he the reason...
why we met again?
When that scumbag came for me once again...
and started threatening me,
I felt like I was on the edge of a cliff.
And every time that happened, you appeared in front of me.
I told you...
that I wanted to reset my life.
I just need you and Da Bin.
Hyun Chae never cared for you.
She was going to leave without you.
So let's get rid of Kim Seo Jin as we planned and get out of here.
What would you do...
if you could foresee the future,
and the ending wasn't what you wanted?
Would you make a different choice?
You're not making any sense.
Is there an issue with what we planned?
Don't you regret your decision?
I don't.
These are what Kim Jin Ho had in his storage locker.
He already took them out, so all I have are these photos.
HAN AE RI
Ms. Han, you did well.
What now?
There's no way to locate the files without Kim Jin Ho's help.
The police contacted me with the news.
Lee Taek Gyu made bail.
What?
Park Joo Young goes to prison and Lee Taek Gyu comes out?
Chairman Yu must have use for him.
Something bad will happen soon.
I think it's time to make the decision.
The old evidence is long gone,
so it's up to us to find new proof.
Ms. Han.
Listen to me carefully.
Hello?
Hello, Mr. Kim.
Are you free to talk?
Yes, I'm good.
I just got off the phone with you from a month from now.
He suggested this and I approved.
Go ahead.
There's no other choice now.
This is the only move we have left.
Please listen carefully to what I have to say.
Tomorrow...
You called, sir?
Where were you this morning?
I asked for you but you weren't in your office.
I was at the police station.
What for?
Recently,
I've been looking into my father's death.
He didn't commit suicide...
but was murdered by someone.
The suspected killer...
- was arrested for another case... - Your father was murdered?
By whom and why?
What do you remember...
about the situation at the time?
What is it that you want to ask?
This is unexpected.
My father died while digging...
into the real cause of the collapse.
Those who wanted to cover it up...
had my father murdered.
I'm not at all surprised by your claims.
You have no idea how much I've been slandered...
for this incident.
The collapse is what I will be guilty of forever.
You of all people know what I've been living with...
since the accident.
I don't know what you've been told,
but listen to me.
Seo Jin, I don't want to lose you.
What I want to know is the truth.
What I say is the truth,
and the path I take gets written in history.
I'm running out of tolerance for your aberrant behavior.
If you get me, you may leave.
HAN AE RI
You once told me that what you speak is the truth...
and your actions get written in history.
I thought we were done discussing this nonsense.
The package you're after is in my possession.
And what am I after?
The evidence that shows...
how the Taejung Town collapse 19 years ago...
wasn't an accident caused by miscalculation...
but an intended crime on your part...
where you set explosives to go off...
which ended in countless lives lost.
The analysis report of the incident...
and a recording of you confessing to the crime.
Both of those...
are in my possession.
Then show me.
Someone who has served me for so long...
should know the basic rules of a deal.
To begin negotiations,
what you're selling should be verified first.
A girl named Han Ae Ri also claims to have it.
Even your wife came to me...
saying the same thing.
However, none of them were in possession of the package.
I'm sure it's the same with you as well.
And how can it not be...
when such a thing doesn't even exist?
Anyway, I'll take this as your letter of resignation.
Leave if you get me.
HAN AE RI
Yes, Ms. Han.
Do you have it?
Of course. I'll be right there.
What is the meaning of this?
You don't have to say anything, sir.
It's not like...
silence can change what's true anyway.
I will make sure to pay you back...
for whatever debt...
we have between us.
So where is this so-called evidence?
What can you do with it anyway?
TAEJUNG TOWN COLLAPSE ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS REPORT
I will tell you when and where.
There, you will hear my terms.
I'm on my way...
to meet Chairman Yu.
Why did you want to meet at a place like this?
Your eyesight fails with age,
so it was difficult to climb up those stairs.
This is where the celebration for the start of Taejung Project...
will take place.
I see. Is this the place?
Blowing up and demolishing this abandoned building...
is going to be the highlight of that event.
You picked the right building.
On my way up here,
I noticed how lousily this building was constructed.
I wouldn't have built it like this.
You sure are good at what you do.
And whom do you think you should thank for that?
On second thought, you're right.
19 years ago,
when the building collapsed on me,
I was a naive, young boy.
I thought everything on the news was the truth.
But ironically,
Yujung taught me everything I had to learn about constructions.
That's how I knew...
that it was impossible for a building to collapse...
solely due to poor planning and construction.
They say, you should never take in another human being.
- What an ingrate. - Explosive demolition is...
only for abandoned buildings like this that are vacant.
How...
How could you...
deliberately blow up a building...
that was full of people?
Everyone's bound to die.
I just helped them...
not die in vain.
That building may have collapsed that day, but Yujung rose.
Compared to the number of lives lost at Taejung Town that day,
countless more have been able...
to make ends meet thanks to Yujung.
And even more...
have found safety in the houses we've built.
The moment I feed those people...
who accuse me of being immoral...
is when I become their savior.
That's the way of the world.
- I'm asking as a victim... - I'm asking as a victim...
- of the Taejung Town Collapse. - of the Taejung Town Collapse.
Did you intentionally blast...
Taejung Town?
Did you intentionally blast Taejung Town?
Yes, I did.
I blasted Taejung Town.
Then you fabricated the numbers and the documents.
You fabricated the situation.
You blamed the collapse on Banyoung.
You're going to take over Banyoung during this crisis...
to make Yujung greater?
You took over Banyoung.
What's so bad about that?
Why is it a sin...
for the strong to consume the weak and survive?
Give it to me.
Give me back what's mine.
I don't have it.
- What did you say? - I never had it.
And everything you just said...
has been recorded.
This will be enough proof.
You've done the exact same thing your father did.
Then I'll kill you the exact same way as well.
Ms. Han, please take care of it.
KIM SEO JIN
KAIROS
Mr. Kim and I from the future weren't always successful.
Every time the present changed, the future did as well.
I'll repeat everything I'll do a month from now on...
to prevent any major changes.
There can be no variables.
I have one question. How was Hyun Chae after I died?
Lee Taek Gyu was released today.
Isn't that too soon? The situations keep changing.
If he's the only one who knows where it is,
no one will be able to find it if he dies.
Kill Kim Jin Ho.
Everyone will die if we fail to catch Chairman Yu.
Give it to me. Give me back what's mine.
