Drum roll, please. Ta-da!

The Amur adonis buds
have finally sprouted.

Today marks a major milestone as life
returns to the surface of this red planet.

Well, it's not exactly on the surface.

Breaking news.

With preparations underway

to select astronauts
for the Fourth Mars Expedition,

NASA has shared
some dramatic news from Mars.

Twenty-five years ago,
a quake on Mars caused the collapse

of an underground,
manned research facility.

The second Mars mission
failed to bring the crew home.

This not only devastated
the families of those lost,

but also people around the world
who had prayed for their safe return.

The belongings of the late Son Ji-young,

the first Korean astronaut
to be selected for a Mars expedition,

were among the artifacts recovered.

Seoul Station Square,
and its surrounding area,

is a low-altitude drone flight zone.

Air taxi drivers are advised
to be cautious of drone collisions…

You scared me!

-How are you?
-How am I?

My dreams have been crushed, so…

Let me see your face.

Turn on your video.

Here you go,
a face full of crushed dreams.

Wow, is this a junkyard or your home?

When did you get time to collect all this?

It's all my parents' stuff.
I need to clear it out when I get time.

Oh, come on!

-Don't go through me.
-Scanning.

-Stop messing around.
-Target. Managing mode.

Get out of here.

Hey!

Scanning target.

LOST IN STARLIGHT

MARS EXPEDITION TEAM'S BELONGINGS
RECOVERED AFTER 25 YEARS

MODERN ELECTRONICS REPAIRS

I'm sorry. Are you okay?

Are you hurt?

Hey, what's taking you so long?

My goodness. I told you.

Oh, come on.

I'm fine. You can go.

Wait…

This…

Is this the Crozley All-in-One 2023 model?

I could fix it for you.

Here's my card. Please stop by.

-I'll fix it for you.
-Keep going.

I'm sorry!

Hey…

All right. This one goes to room 402.

-Okay, and that one?
-The drone will take it. See you later.

I'll head up, then.

Soo-jung's favorite random game!

Which game? Game…

I just put it here. Where did it go?

I swear, I left it right… Here it is!

Good grief. What a day.

Let's see.

I brought this in a month ago,
and you're just looking at it now?

-Jay said he took care of everything.
-Come on.

What would you do without Jay?

-You wouldn't have anyone to blame.
-Shush, I can't focus.

Excuse me.

Is there a young man who works here?

-A young man?
-Yes.

Oh, you mean Jay.

Hey, Jay.

-You're here.
-Well, look at you.

-Who's this?
-Your girlfriend?

-Gosh.
-Come on, ma'am.

She's just a customer.

-My goodness.
-Oh, to be young again…

-Cut it out.
-Must be nice being young.

-Shall I load them into the car?
-I'll do it. You help the customer.

-Sure.
-Good work, Jay.

Please come again, Ms. Oh.

Come this way.

-This way.
-Okay.

Glad you managed to find your way here.

Sorry for rushing off earlier.

-Come on up.
-Okay.

SEWOON PLAZA

The circuit board is completely destroyed.

Yes, thanks to you.

It was probably broken before it fell.

Anyway, can you fix it?

I'll start looking for the parts.

It might be retro,
but it was affordable then.

Finding the parts shouldn't be too hard.

Write your details down.

Then I can contact you when it's ready.

Let me.

Like this.

JOO NAN-YOUNG

Your name, on paper?

Wow. You don't find guys
like that anymore.

Great. Now that he's got your number,
why not date him and clear your head?

Drop it.

How's everything at the lab?
And the leadership meetings?

Your psychological evaluation scores
barely made the cut.

Things could change
if you make a real breakthrough.

A real breakthrough?

I hear the detector has noise issues.

If you fix it, maybe you can come back.

Do we need to boost it from 270 to 300?

Looks like the team
has been struggling without you.

Fine.

I should be ready at all times.

You never know
when a miracle might strike.

DR. JOO DEMOTED TO BACKUP FOR MARS

Call if you get anything
in this condition.

-Okay.
-All right. I'll get going.

-Take care.
-So boring…

-I'm sitting farthest from the teacher.
-Hey, you said you practiced a lot!

Have you given up music for good?

At this rate, you'll end up like me.

I'd be living the dream
if I ended up like you.

Jeez, you're crazy.

DR. JOO NAN-YOUNG

I didn't know she was famous.

What are you staring at?

She's cool.

Do we have the noise test results?

I'm heading out now.

Look. It's working. This is great!

-Oh!
-Oh no!

This is Nan-young.
I'm reporting on my progress.

I've been upgrading the Life Form Detector
since coming home.

The research is going smoothly.

If we achieve 300 resolution
prior to launch,

please consider allowing me to join
the Mars expedition to manage the system.

Good news.

I found a way. Are you free tomorrow?

Oh man…

I guess this doesn't fit.
Sorry you came all this way for nothing.

Not at all. Thanks for trying.

Give it to me already.

I don't want to bother you anymore,
and it's not even that important.

-It's not mine anyway!
-Come on.

It's written right here in big letters.

"Nan-young's."

Is it really not yours?

It isn't.

It was my mom's.

Then,

we definitely need to fix it.

Hey, sir, I appreciate the effort.

It's more than enough.

It's Jay, not "sir."

What?

My name.

It's Jay.

All right, Mr. Jay.

-Thanks for your hard work.
-Right?

I did work pretty hard.

On that note, aren't you hungry?

Wow.

Why doesn't it taste this good
when I make it?

Food tastes best
when someone else cooks it.

You think so?

Maybe good company makes it taste better.

When did we start being so forward?

I was talking to myself.

No disrespect.

This is on me.

-As you said, you worked hard, sir.
-Come on.

Enough with the "sir." It's Jay.

Let's be on a first name basis.

We'll see each other
at least three more times.

Agreed?

Then…

Do it on the third occasion.

Call me.

Oh my gosh. It's so cold.

Nan-young.

Well…

The thing is…

This is our third time
seeing each other, right?

Can I…

call you by your name now?

What?

I'm so out of breath.

-Let's go.
-Here.

-How'd you know I didn't have an umbrella?
-I noticed earlier.

So I ran as fast as I could.

This model was released right after yours,

but the specs and design
are almost identical.

This really wasn't easy to find.

Luckily, I happened to know someone,
so I got it for next to nothing.

It looks the same at first glance.

Would that be okay?

-Does it play music?
-Of course!

Want to hear it?

Hold on.

You're using a rare record player
as a Bluetooth speaker?

-How modern of you.
-Shush.

I love this song.

I found it on the cloud a few years ago.

It sounds like a demo. It's unfinished.

I used to play this song so much
while I studied

that my roommate ended up moving out.

Isn't that funny?

-That's a nice surprise.
-What?

Do you know this song?

That's amazing!

I've never met anyone who knew it.

Yeah, that really is… amazing.

I deleted it right away.

I never imagined
anyone would listen to it.

What?

Is this your song?

Did you sing it?

You're lying.

-Jay doesn't lie.
-Oh my…

Come on.

We don't have any customers,
and the part-timer's slacking off.

-What are you…
-Why is this here?

Oh, my guitar!

Excuse me.

Why did he take a nap here again?

To be honest,

I still haven't finished it.

Is that okay?

Yes.

I lose myself to fun

In nameless cities
Drifting to the unknown

Sleeping somewhere in between

For someone like me
Life is sometimes just hard to foresee

Holding my breath
I'll step through concrete mountains

I'll overcome it all
And wipe the dust off my face

Are you telling me
the song really is yours?

Are you a solo artist?
Or are you in a band? Do you perform live?

-You have lots of questions.
-I've been dying to know.

I couldn't find anything about you.
No albums, no socials.

But the song is just amazing. I mean…

I'm honored.

"Honored"?

SPACE EXPLORATION

DR. JOO'S DREAM TO BLOOM FLOWERS ON MARS

MARS EXPEDITION INTERVIEW
AIRS AT THIS TIME TOMORROW

Let's see.

The potassium and phosphate levels…

Oh no. How can they be this high?

How did everyone allow it to get this bad?

Jeez…

Let me think…

Where did all the seedlings
from the germination room go?

Dad, it's me.

So this is…

Yesterday, the Life Form Detector
that you've been developing

was unveiled on social media

by the Korea
National Aerospace Administration.

Do you think we'll meet real Martians
during this expedition?

Our main goal
is finding traces of microbes

or organic matter
released through respiration.

Wow, that's amazing, Dr. Joo.

With this detector,

we might even meet
microbial aliens on Mars.

Yes, perhaps.

I know this might be a sensitive topic…

The astronaut who passed away
during the Mars mission, Son Ji-young,

was your mother, Dr. Joo.

Our viewers might remember her.

What made you decide
to become an astronaut and go to Mars?

Yes, well…

Actually, I don't remember much
about my mother…

MOM'S ON MARS
MOM ISN'T ON MARS

-Dr. Joo?
-Ah… yes.

I apologize.

I know this might be a sensitive topic…

The astronaut who passed away
during the Mars mission, Son Ji-young,

was your mother, Dr. Joo.

Our viewers might remember her.

What made you decide
to become an astronaut and go to Mars?

RECORD PLAYER: IT'S RAINING…

LET'S GET SOME OF THIS

-I'm stuffed.
-Tell me about it.

When you're feeling down,
nothing hits the spot like good food.

Right? When you're feeling down…

You can always talk to me, you know?

-What?
-Or not.

Then can I just ask you something?

Sure.

Why did you first get into music?

Whoa, well…

No special reason.

I was mostly raised by my grandpa
in the countryside.

He used to take me to the public baths,
and he'd scrub me with his rough hands.

I guess that really upset me as a kid.

Whenever I went to the bathhouse,
I always cried for my mom.

Grandpa taught me how to sing
to keep me quiet.

He promised to buy me a Coke

if I sang without crying,

and I fell for it.

Little Jay must've been cute.

I had my moments.

Grown-up Jay's even better.
Quite handsome too.

Hilarious.

Stay here. I'll get some more.

I'll come too.
You might get kidnapped for being cute.

Come on now.

How's grown-up Jay doing?

Well,

I guess…

I'm waiting for the desire to sing
to find its way back to me.

There, it found you.

As a child, I used to stargaze
with my dad every night.

I always wondered what was up there.

He'd go on and on about Mars.

I was practically brainwashed.

Your dad turned you into a Mars geek.

You could say that.

I guess I wanted to be someone special.

An astronaut who goes to Mars,
representing mankind.

That's special.

-Nan-young.
-Yes?

You are special.

Whether you go to space or not.

-That's your thing, isn't it?
-What is?

All that sweet talk.

Just so you know, it's a lost cause.

Because I'll be flying off
into space someday.

You're not leaving…

right away, are you?

It's still a no.

Not a chance.
I can't make any commitments.

Get it together, Joo Nan-young.

Commitment?

-Don't get any closer.
-What?

-Let's keep our distance.
-Distance?

Yes.

Stay there!

-Hey, keep it down!
-Come on. Put this back on.

Is this your bedroom?

-Sorry about that!
-Sorry!

Let's go.

Gosh.

I'm exhausted.

Are you okay? My goodness.

Oh no.

I'm sorry.

So sorry.

Here, let me see.

This isn't good.

What isn't?

You've already done this much?

I'm almost there.
There's one thing I can't figure out.

Put layer AB first and add BC…

Gosh. Then it's too thick,
and there's not enough space.

I need to finish this before the launch
so someone can take it with them.

Right, Rosa?

Wait. Who's going to take it?

Me?

Joo Nan-young.

As they say in Korean,
you've got one thick natjjak.

-Where'd you learn that?
-You pick up Korean fast at the clubs.

Plus, dating a Korean
helps you really master the language.

Rosa.

-Too bad you can't date on Mars.
-How are things with that artist?

JAY

Hello? So you're Nan-young's boyfriend?
How much do you like her?

Cut it out, Rosa!

Hello? Hi, Jay.

Right now? Outside?

LET'S CELEBRATE! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARS GEEK

Let me see…

What did I say?

My dad's a Mars geek.

Nice hideout.

This is like
the Earth Defense Force's secret base.

He's broadcasting to Mars right now.

He believes someone
with the same birthday as me is on Mars.

To your mother, perhaps?

-How did you know?
-Sorry.

If your girlfriend is famous, her birthday
and family history are all online.

Yeah, it's for Mom.

He's been doing this for over 20 years,

not accepting that Mom is gone.

This is how I celebrate my birthday
every year.

I'll join you from now on.

We just started broadcasting.

-It's a small setup but it works well.
-May I take a look?

Of course. Do you want to see more?

-My goodness.
-Gosh, I'm sorry.

You're better at breaking things
than fixing them.

Call yourself a "Destruction Expert."

My goodness.
It's badly damaged on this side.

I really hope
these signals can reach Mars.

Radio waves can go anywhere.
They just need someone to receive them.

Once we fix the base antenna,
we can make calls.

With a 20-minute delay, of course.

-Nan-young, the thing is…
-Yes?

If you actually go to Mars,

how will I contact you?

Should I go buy some walkie-talkies?

Walkie-talkies?

Right…

I wonder if I'll actually be able
to go to space.

Let's go right now.

To space.

Hey, look at this one.

-This one?
-It's so cute.

It's coming out.

-Wow, that looks delicious.
-Seriously.

-This is my first observatory visit.
-It's been a while.

-Which constellation is that?
-I'm not sure.

Jay, that's Mars.

-Where? Which one?
-There.

It's not that far.

I told you. It's really close.

-But it takes six months?
-In space, six months isn't that long.

Wow.

That's really close.

As it's so close,
you'll be back really soon.

Right, Mommy?

Lie!

It was a lie!

You said you'd be back soon.

But it was a lie!

Mom.

I miss you.

Let's call Mom.

I miss her.

Don't leave.

I love you too.

Mom.

Mom!

Liar.

Nan-young, do you want rice or toast--

What's wrong?

Why are you crying?

It's nothing.

A stupid dream.

After a nightmare…

let the sunshine work its magic.

What's this igloo?

So, you're into gardening?

This isn't just gardening.

-Scanning.
-Who's our little friend?

It's an ultra-high-density detector
that tracks microbes in real-time.

This masterpiece is the culmination
of my scientific knowledge.

I have no idea what that is,
but it sounds incredible.

That's because it is.

Yeah, it really is.

These are Amur adonis.

They're the first to bloom
in the snow each year.

These flowers naturally generate heat,
allowing them to bloom,

but these samples
have maximized their self-heating ability.

I'm going to plant a flower garden
on Mars with them.

These two will be the parents
who protect the little ones.

Docking now.

They must feel safe. The beam projector
and igloo are protecting them.

Managing mode.

Were you listening at all?

Dr. Joo, I have a lot more to learn.

Today's research topic

is Jay's self-heating ability
to protect Joo Nan-young!

Get away from me!

I guess I was about five.

I made a paper astronaut like this.

Even then, you were all about space.

In the end,
it managed to reach space before me.

How?

Mom took it with her.

Since I couldn't go with her,
she took it instead of me.

With such innocence,

I spent ages collecting gum wrappers
to make the astronaut shiny.

That's amazing.

Do you remember all that
from your childhood?

Isn't it strange?

Sometimes I can't even picture Mom's face.

The gum wrappers

were C and D.

The scotch tape was B.

The popsicle stick was A.

Use A as the sole material!

What do you mean?

What's wrong?

Put layer A on its own,

then place B between C and D.

Eureka!

-Scanning.
-Some details still require fine-tuning.

Scanning target.

But the sensitivity and speed
are already perfect as they are.

Good job. It turned out great.

But why are there microbes
in the clean room?

Get the person in charge.

I'll have another of the same.

And you?

-Another Coke?
-Mm-hmm.

I just made a groundbreaking discovery.
Let me treat you!

A Coke is fine.

They must be performing.

That's nice.

Jay.

Hey.

Why are you ignoring my messages?

-We have no reason to keep in touch.
-Fine.

Keep running away, then.

Plenty of people
still want to hear your music.

My music?

That wasn't my music, was it?

-You just want--
-This concert…

-Jay.
-Panda Sound is coming.

It's the label you always dreamed about.

-Sorry. Let's go.
-Okay.

Come to Rolling Burn at 8:00 on Saturday.

You should come too.
Jay is amazing when he performs.

She's an old bandmate.

We're not close anymore.

Sorry if that was awkward.

It's okay.

But I kind of want to see…

you on stage.

I looked you up but didn't find anything.

Is there a video or anything?

Choi Di-a!

-Diablo, look over here.
-Cut it out!

Stop! I'm gonna kill you!

What's wrong?

Don't you like it?

It felt a little flat.

I tweaked it
to better suit live performances.

You haven't changed at all.

Is this even my song?

And the chorus…

You can't sing it anyway.

And you won't release it.
Shouldn't someone sing it at least?

Forget it. I don't know why
I even bothered coming.

Good luck without a guitarist.

You begged me so much,
I thought you'd changed.

If you walk out now,

you'll be stuck like this forever.

Today is your last chance

to make up for your mistakes.

You're here.

That's what matters. Let's make it count.

Okay.

We're already at the last song.

You're beautiful!

We've got a returning member here.

-You remember him, right?
-Yes, we do!

Jay on guitar.

Who?

-Oh my!
-Yes, Jay!

On that note…

Here's a song
we've never performed as The Moles.

It's Jay's original song.

"Stay."

-Jay?
-You come in from here.

Isn't that rushed?

I'm feeling it.

-I'll send it to them as is.
-Okay.

-You changed the whole thing.
-The audience and label are waiting.

-Are you crazy?
-I can't sing it.

The show's starting. So what?!

I just can't do this!

No one cares about your little story.

TRASH
JUST A DIARY

He looks amazing! Jay!

Jay, aren't you going to sing anymore?

I don't know. Even if I join them,
Di-a is still the band's singer.

I'm still figuring out
if I want us to be a team.

Okay.

I don't really know much,

but that song…

I liked your version better.

Of course, you were amazing on guitar.

I really hope that one day,

everyone will get to hear your voice,
not just me.

-Can't it just be for you?
-No way.

I want to show you off to everyone.

I made it!

-What is it?
-It's a secret.

Tell me.

Oh my gosh. I'm so happy!

You said you'd never sell it,

yet here you are,
ruining a perfectly good one.

Is life treating you better now?

Yes, it's treating me pretty well.

Oh, please…

JAY

-Congratulations, Dr. Joo.
-Congratulations!

Will the official announcement
air tomorrow, director?

-Yes, at 8 p.m.
-Come on over.

Be careful until then.

-Director, isn't it airing today?
-Oh, it's tonight.

-Dr. Joo.
-I'll treat you.

In two years' time?

-Who'll be here then?
-No, before I leave.

-Congratulations.
-Cheers!

My dear Nan-young must've been very busy.

The records are…

Frank Sinatra…

Chet Baker…

Alice Mae King's "Love the Way."

Her mom liked the classics.

A QR code?

Day 49 on Mars, 9:47 p.m.

The wind's calm and quiet today.

The weather's been nice for days,
so I feel great.

I've got a surprise for you.

Drum roll, please. Ta-da!

The Amur adonis buds
have finally sprouted.

Today marks a major milestone as life
returns to the surface of this red planet.

Well, it's not exactly on the surface.

You have too many cavities.

Make sure you brush those teethies
before bed.

Listen to your dad.

Don't forget to eat your vegetables.

And work hard on your English.

Goodnight, sweetie.

That's her, isn't it?

No way.

DR. JOO NAN-YOUNG SELECTED AS A MEMBER
OF THE FOURTH MARS EXPEDITION TEAM

Why didn't you turn the light on,
and why didn't you call?

Right, I missed your call.

Sorry, I was really busy.

You even… cleaned?

Jay…

When were you going to tell me?

Today.

When did you find out?

A few days ago.

Was it

on the day I performed?

Yeah.

How could you…

Was this your secret?

I'm sorry.

I couldn't help it.

-The embargo was even on family--
-Right, family.

Does your dad know you're going?

He wouldn't know--

Still, you should've said something
in advance.

Jay.

Just be happy for me.

I've come so far just for this.

-You know that.
-Of course I do.

At least I thought I did.

But I had no idea
what you were trying to do.

I was foolish.

I cheered you on like an idiot,
not knowing you were doomed.

Jay.

Do you really have to go?

You could die if you go.

Jay, please don't do this.

Did you go through my stuff?

Does that really matter right now?

To me, it feels like
you're heading toward death!

What you saw is the worst-case scenario!

That's never going to happen to me!

You think I'm a fool.
You only try to justify yourself!

This is why I couldn't tell you.

Because you're nothing like my dad.

I can't be like your father.

I can't live my life
just staring at the sky,

holding out for someone
who might never come back!

Oh, really? I see.

Then let's end things here.

You…

are so cruel.

NAN-YOUNG'S

Dad, I'm going to Mars.

How could Mom
only think about herself like that?

-By now, she must have reached orbit.
-You did it again. The rain's coming in.

But you know what's even worse?

American Airlines flight 034
from Incheon to Florida…

DELETE JAY'S NUMBER?

I finally understand Mom.

Isn't that funny?

Are you okay?

Did you have a nightmare?

No, I'm good.

You scared me.

Your room stinks.
Let's get some fresh air in here.

The sun's beautiful today.

Come on, just leave me…

Take a look outside. Isn't it nice?

Jay, look at the waves!

Nan-young.

Your boyfriend sucks, right?

You finally figured that out?

I've got no style, no money.

And no patience.
I couldn't even hold back, so I came here.

Good.

I like you for that.

I like you because you suck.

Joo Nan-young, you've got odd taste.

What about you?

Do you wish you hadn't met me?

No.

Not at all.

The best thing I've done in my life

is meeting you.

Liar.

I mean it.

Honestly,

I still can't fully support…

what you're doing.

So please,

just come home safe.

That's all I'm asking.

I'm sorry for being selfish.

Then keep being selfish.

From now on,

until you come back.

Don't do anything dangerous,

and protect yourself first.

Promise me, Nan-young,

that you'll focus on coming back safely.

Okay.

I promise.

Excuse me.

Nan-young, I'm…

trying to move forward, just like you.

For me

and…

for you.

It's finally done!

To my number one fan.

I want you to hear it first.

For this song,

your opinion matters the most.

-It's good!
-I guess the one who wrote it knows best.

-The ending's not bad.
-Di-a, let's book the session.

-For your first album--
-On one condition.

-What?
-What is it?

I'm going to sing it on stage.

My goodness.

IT'S FINALLY DONE!
I WANT YOU TO HEAR IT FIRST.

Jay, it's me.

The signal was better this morning,

so I turned on the communicator excitedly.

Your song finally downloaded.

You've finished it.

My first thought when I heard it…

was how much I miss you.

And how painful your loneliness was

during the times in your life
that I couldn't be a part of.

And that I'm sorry.

I'll be on Mars soon.

Even if we can't reach each other
for a while,

don't forget, Jay.

Out here in space,

there's someone

who's always rooting for you.

Stay strong, Jay.

Detected!

Object found!

Should I go with you?
I don't want to send you alone.

I'll be back before lunch.

By the way,

could you heat up my lunch
while you're at it?

-I'll eat when I get back.
-Okay. Don't be late.

Yes, ma'am.

Are you at it again?

It's early. What now?

-I'm waking you up for rehearsal.
-Don't worry. I'll be on time.

By the way, I found your in-ear monitors.

Jay.

Sing for me. Right here.

The battery's dead.

Target!

Life trace!

Suit, start recording.

Comms are unstable.
Switching to a log-based report.

Biomarkers have been detected
within a 500-meter radius.

I'll do a quick check and return.

-One more monitor here.
-Let's check the drums. Cue!

Di-a, how are the monitors?

All good.

Monitors are good!

Please turn the vocals up a bit.

Turn up the vocals over here!

Jay, focus. That was your cue.

-Sorry.
-This is your last chance.

Sorry. Let's start over.

Let's do another sound check!

The impact from the meteorite
has uncovered an underground lava cave.

Tracing route.

Route found!

Tracing route.

Suit, start recording.

Entering unidentified cave,
the source of the biomarkers.

Radio signal's weak.
Switching to recording…

I wrote that song about a former crush.

-Di-a!
-Di-a!

It's called "Moonlight."

Life trace!

Route found!

Tracing route.

Thank you for coming
to The Moles' showcase.

We've prepared something special
for all you fans here today.

Jay?

Jay!

Jay, it's me,

Nan-young.

You know what?

When I was young,
I never carried an umbrella with me.

But I never got caught in the rain.

Because Dad always came to meet me.

He was always looking up at the sky,

so he must've developed
a sixth sense for predicting rain.

Maybe I've gotten used to it.

Even now, I still don't carry an umbrella.

But you know what?

-The day you first said my name…
-Nan-young.

That day…

Can I call you by your name now?

…was the first time
I'd shared an umbrella as an adult.

It's also the day I fell for you.

If you're watching this,

it probably means
something unfortunate has happened.

Jay,

the funny thing is,

instead of following the same path,

you might go in another direction
and find an oasis.

That's what you are to me.

You led me onto a path more beautiful
than I could have ever imagined.

It'll be tough,

but, Jay…

I hope you won't stay sad for too long.

Live without regrets and be yourself.

With your own voice.

Live a beautiful life.

Jay was never a singer, was he?

Hey, switch to camera three!

Go for a full shot!

Check mic one!

Don't forget, Jay.

Out here in space,

there's someone…

who's always rooting for you.

I lose myself to fun

In nameless cities…

Drifting to the unknown

Sleeping somewhere in between

For someone like me
Life is sometimes just hard to foresee

Holding my breath
I'll step through concrete mountains

I'll overcome it all
And wipe the dust off my face

Many people are caught within a question

In between zero and one

Is where, they meet their love

Beyond the stars

Have a good ride, bon voyage

Time doesn't matter

We're meant for each other

Although we’re far apart

I’ll always find a way to your heart

-Hey!
-Oh!

-You should've done this sooner!
-Seriously.

Breaking news.

NASA reports that Korean astronaut
Dr. Joo Nan-young,

who left for a Mars expedition
last November, is currently missing.

Communication was lost
due to sudden weather changes,

causing Dr. Joo's current status
to remain uncertain for more than an hour.

Did she take an umbrella?

In a briefing,
after announcing the disappearance,

NASA shared plans…

-No…
-…to monitor for accidents…

-…due to weather anomalies…
-No!

…from Demeter, which still orbits Mars…

Jay.

I'm scared.

I just need a moment.
It's about Mr. Joo's family.

Visiting hours are over.
Please come back. Sir!

Mr. Joo.

May I… borrow this for a moment?

Do you also have…

a message to send up to the stars?

Yes.

Mom!

Mom!

Nan-young!

-Come to Mommy.
-Nan-young.

I wanted

to wrap you up in light.

What's for dinner?

-Well, how about instant noodles?
-Again?

I didn't want you to see

even a trace of the shadows inside me.

Could a nobody like me

dare to want someone as special as you?

I told myself to put an end to it.

But every morning, I'd wake up

and look for traces of you.

You taught me every day

that light and shadows are inseparable.

That without the shadows,

you cannot embrace the light.

Please…

Please…

Waiting indefinitely…

Honestly, sometimes,

it hurts quite a bit.

But if there's anything
as certain as the pain,

it's that I'll never give up on you.

So please,

don't give up on me either.

At the end of this wait,

come back

and save me.

Jay!

I'm sorry

for taking so long.

You're a crybaby.

No, I'm not crying.

Is your nose running, then?

No, stop.

No, Jay.

Don't leave me!

Please stay. I'm begging you, Jay!

Don't go!

Please don't leave me!

Jay, please.

It's so warm.

Mom?

Mom…

I love you.

I made it!

Nan… Nan-young.

Nan-young!

And one more thing…

-Nan-young, where are you?
-I'm alive.

I heard your message.

You sounded different somehow.

You are Jay, right?

It must be a Mars thing.

It feels like a dream.

It's definitely not a dream.

Now that I'm here, I just remembered…

There's

something I never got to tell you.

I love you.

It's time for "This Day in History."

This event not only shook Korea
but the entire world.

What mesmerized the world more than
Dr. Joo Nan-young's miraculous rescue

was her discovery of the Amur adonis
while fighting for her life…

The distance reveals the things
I couldn't see before.

Things I didn't notice before I went away.

But they were always there…

right where I left them.

Under my feet.

Before my eyes.

Inside each of us.

And…

on… this star.

LOST IN STARLIGHT
