Last week.

(Season 3's long-awaited final escape)

"Moved to this place on 30th June, 1950."

I think this is a bunker. It's even marked on the map.

(The Pig of Steel found a decisive clue)

(They have to find the passcode to the iron door)

(They acquire a necklace with the same symbol as the door)

These are country calling codes.

(They opened the safe based on the codes in the diary)

- This is 'p.' / - The one that looks like a TV.

The crown.

(The iron door is open)

(Behind the iron door is a...)

(Time machine)

(Using the direction of the irises in the portraits,)

(the time machine opens)

It's good to see you, time machine.

(Random journey through time: START!)

I'm scared.

(That is how they ended up in)

(Gyeongseong)

We arrived way back in time.

(Dropped in the middle of Gyeongseong)

(Captured as soon as they arrived)

(What were their crimes?)

You're members of Youth Independence Association, right?

(Independence movement?)

(Tied up)

(A mysterious person watches from afar)

Sir.

He would like to meet you at his house.

(Sugwang)

You're aware that the Chief of Police has placed

members of the Youth Independence Association

on the most wanted list due to the attempted murder case?

(A deal is struck after receiving a bribe)

I'll trust you and take my leave.

My Lord. Please look at this.

(Sugwang sees the necklace from the bunker)

Please pass this letter

to the female owner of Hanabi.

(Meanwhile, a mysterious man appears)

That heap of scrap metal

started sparkling then it suddenly disappeared.

Yes. I saw that, too.

Somebody might've known that we would be here at this time.

Let's read that. Someone attempted to murder the police chief.

We might have to help him.

What's important is that we have to find him.

Hanabi is right here.

Hello.

(Let them help you and you should help them, too)

(I wish to know if they are dependable)

Sugwang did send you here.

Yes.

I'm Yeo Woong, president of the Youth Independence Association.

Nice to meet you.

He didn't mean lady owner. It's the Owner Yeo,

(They met an independence activist)

Last week, there was an assassination attempt on the Chief of Police.

We wanted to assassinate him

and deliver the Declaration of Independence.

But our strategy failed

and my brother, who pretended to be a student, was captured.

I believe he is being tortured somewhere.

We have an important revolt taking place tomorrow.

However, my brother and I's identities have been revealed.

So, I have no choice but to hide myself here.

I hope that you can do something

on our behalf instead.

So, will you help me?

Yes.

(A favour from the independence activist)

(What is the escapers fate?)

(The places and individuals)

(in this show are fictional)

Yes. If we have the capacity to help you, we'll do it.

Divide yourselves into two groups of 3.

One group shall go to the pawnshop

and the other shall go to the hotel.

It will be better

if the 3 of you in suits go to the hotel.

You'll be able to recognise the pawnshop, won't you?

Yes, we'll go the pawnshop.

Here you go.

- Pawnshop. / - What is this?

I have written your instructions in these envelopes.

I trust you will take the appropriate precautions

as this is a confidential matter.

We don't have much time left.

This man will take you where you must go.

Where will you go?

No, he has to remain in hiding.

So he can't go anywhere.

Jongmin, we have to do this on his behalf.

That's why we're going... to the hotel and pawnshop.

Are you okay?

(Embarrassing himself while scolding Jongmin)

That looked painful.

Please be careful.

Hurting myself physically is not a big deal.

I will do anything for my country.

- I wish you well. / - Thank you.

I feel a sense of duty.

Let's really do our best.

(Trust me, bro)

- Let's go down. / - Okay.

(Their guide takes the lead)

Please stay strong.

Thank you.

(Uplifting final good-byes)

- Let's do our best. / - Let's!

(They part after encouraging one another)

We'll divide ourselves into Team Hotel and Team Pawnshop.

Yes.

We have to check the letters, too.

Be quiet.

(Shush)

Let's head outside.

(Alert)

Do come again.

"Do come again"?

(A confusing farewell)

(Doli, Sooni, Cheoli: All Koreans)

"Do come again"?

(Time to start their secret mission)

Pawnshop.

- Pawnshop, Donghyun. / - We'll go to the hotel.

The building over there is the hotel.

Those going to the hotel can go that way.

Where is the pawnshop?

Please follow me to the pawnshop.

- See you later, Jongmin. / - Do your best.

Show us your patriotism and push through to the end.

Where do we meet after?

Shouldn't we sort that?

We can't decide a specific location right now.

Let's just go for it.

(As usual, they will go with the flow)

(Team Pawnshop: Hodong, Donghyun, Byungjae)

(Team Hotel: Jongmin, Shindong, P.O)

(The start of Operation: Revolution)

It's the hotel.

Is this an old hotel?

Glory Hotel.

Do people stay here?

We should read the letter.

Let's read it. Where should we read this?

Should we read it, or enter first?

- We should read it first. / - Let's read it over here?

We can read it there, too.

(After a little confusion)

- Shall we read it here? / - Let's do that.

(They check their mission)

Please read it.

"We have planted a spy at the Governor-General's office.

Find them on the first floor of the hotel

and retrieve their bag.

When you ask, 'What do you do for a headache?'

The one who answers 'clover' is our spy."

When we say, 'What do you do for a headache?'

They say 'clover.'

"If you reply 'cosmos flower' to that person,

you will be given a bag."

We have to say 'cosmos flower' upon hearing 'clover.'

If I'm that person... Ask me that question.

What do you do for a headache?

Clover.

Cosmos flower.

Please take this. That's the process.

Thank you.

We just have to get the bag, don't we?

Our task is easy.

Can we keep asking random people?

Maybe only those who might have a bag?

(Knock Knock)

Hello.

(Entering with smiles on their faces)

(Hotel)

(This is what awaits them when they enter)

(A high-class western interior)

(There's a cosy cafe inside, too)

(Oh~)

Hello.

(Non-stop awe)

How may I help you?

- Sorry? / - How may I help you?

When you have a headache...

Pardon?

(He asks the secret question upon entry)

- It's okay. / - You can have a seat inside.

I guess there's more space inside.

(Those guys are peculiar)

There's a lot of people.

(Full of people)

Let's have a seat?

Okay.

(Is there a spy among them?)

Shall we ask them the question?

It feels like it's that person.

He looks quite suspicious.

(A common character in movies)

(Super suspicious person)

Shall we ask him now?

Just slide up, naturally...

(Sliding over)

(Nervous)

I think there's something over there.

(Getting closer, with P.O's help)

(He naturally joins them)

Hello.

What do you do for a headache?

No. Ask the man.

(Uncomfortable)

(Correcting for a new target)

What do you do for a headache?

(Jongmin attempts again)

You have a headache, you say?

You have a headache, you say?

What do you do for a headache?

You have a headache, you say?

You have a headache, you say?

(Folding his newspaper and revealing his face)

Hold on. Please have a seat.

It's a good thing that we met.

(Excited to see a familiar face)

I'm the best neurosurgeon in Gyeongseong.

My name is Jo Songhwa.

Okay.

I was shocked.

It was the director.

Director Matthew Jo.

Can you please read this?

(The doctor who diagnosed Jongmin's dyslexia)

You're very ill.

Nobody can read this.

Demon, demon!

Leave that man's body this instant!

(They cover their mouths)

- Can I look at your eyes? / - Yes.

(Looking closely)

(Irises moving as if possessed)

Please look downwards.

Good.

Please read this.

(Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers)

(A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked)

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers...

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers...

A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper fickled... fickled...

What do you mean by 'fickled'?

That's your problem. You're ill.

(Getting a feeling of déjà vu...)

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.

A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked.

You're good.

Farewell, then.

(He's leaving just like that...?)

(Once again leaving only emotional scars behind)

What's up with that doctor?

- It's him. / - Yes. Director Jo.

The psychiatric hospital.

Yes. That's right. Jo something.

Matthew Jo! Matthew Jo's Psychiatric Hospital.

Yeah, he did that to me back then, too.

- Really? Exactly the same thing? / - Please come in.

(Is someone here?)

(Suddenly, policemen enter the hotel)

This is delicious.

Why are they here?

(High alert)

(Thankfully, they just pass by them)

Why are they here?

I think they're on a patrol.

(Patrolling for Youth Independence Association members)

(Pawnshop Team enters a narrow alley)

You can head over to that building over there.

(Their destination is at the end of the stone stairs)

Thank you.

Please protect Yeo Woong until the end.

Please.

(Continuously asking for favours)

Long live Korea.

(Moving cautiously to avoid being caught)

(Running)

(Loudest dashing in the world)

(Making a raucous looking around)

(Locating the pawnshop owner)

Wait. We have to read the letter.

(Opening)

"Give the enclosed certificate to the pawnshop owner

and retrieve the item."

"The pawnshop owner is not to be trusted."

"Be careful."

It says the pawnshop owner isn't trustworthy.

We have to exchange this certificate for a secret document.

"Bailor: Hanabi."

I understand now.

Okay.

But we shouldn't trust the owner.

(The key is to act natural)

We have to pretend to trust him.

(Striding with all manner of pre-tense)

(Trained knocking skills from Let's Eat (one of Hodong's shows))

Excuse me.

Who are you?

We're here to give you something.

Come in.

(A more spirited answer than expected)

(Pawnshop)

(Expensive jewellery and fancy wedding boxes)

(A financial institution for all your wants and needs)

(Entering modestly)

(Closing the door is good manners)

Who are you?

We have something to give to you.

(Cautiously entering the pawnshop)

(Looking around)

We have a letter with us.

We're here to give you a certificate.

Please give it to me.

Just one moment.

(Almost included their instructions)

(Pretending to be calm)

This...

(Inspecting the certificate)

(Heart pounding)

(This is how they look when nervous)

This item is located deep in the warehouse.

I have to look for it.

- Please wait here. / - Okay.

How long will it take?

Just a moment should do.

Please wait a moment.

Okay.

(Earnest request to wait)

Isn't he going to report us?

(What?)

(Hmph!)

(Running away after being intimidated)

I think he's going to report us.

Wait.

Hurry up, Byungjae.

Anything we can look for?

(Investigating as soon as the owner leaves)

I think he's going to report us.

(Hurriedly looking around)

We can't trust him, anyway.

(But they can't open any of the boxes)

- Shall we ask him? / - Yes.

He's alone right now.

What do you do for a headache?

- Sorry? / - What do you do for a headache?

(Barking up the wrong tree)

No.

I'm sorry.

Let's ask him.

(P.O goes for it)

(This is not a freeze frame)

I'm sorry.

(Covering his mouth)

(There's nowhere to hide so he rests on Shindong's shoulder)

What about them?

They're carrying 1 bag each.

(Target zone change)

(They confidently approach them)

(Even cheesier attempt)

(Suddenly very silent)

(Moist eyes)

They gave us a dirty look.

But they have bags.

(P.O approaches the final table)

What do you do for a headache?

(Asking as if he's the male lead)

Enjoy your coffee.

(Leaving as if he played a cameo)

(Covering his mouth)

How do you open this?

(Rustling)

I think this is it.

"Deposit of 10 cents on May 25th." This must be it.

Secret document. Passcode.

Shouldn't we take this?

I think we have to find the document?

(Confused)

But he said it was in the warehouse.

He went to find that item.

- Shall we take a look at this? / - Yes.

(A fruitless effort)

(Looking)

Oh?

- What is it? / - There's just an envelope here.

(Where is the secret document?)

You checked this, didn't you?

(Suddenly, policemen appear)

(With their weapons ready)

Here they are.

(Here comes the Lieutenant)

It's them.

Hide it.

(On alert)

Here you go.

(What paper did the owner give the Lieutenant?)

Is this what they're here for?

Yes, that's right, Lieutenant.

(The document the escapers are looking for)

(Surrounded on all sides)

"Declaration of Independence."

"We declare that Joseon is an independent country

'and that the people of Joseon owns the land of this country."

The Declaration of Independence.

We wanted to murder the Police Chief

and deliver the Declaration of Independence.

However, our plan failed.

My brother, disguised as a student, was caught.

We have an important revolt scheduled for tomorrow.

When the Lieutenant read the Declaration of Independence,

I thought that today must be that day.

The secret document is that document.

The Declaration of Independence.

When I think about it again,

I felt very embarrassed at that moment.

We arrived on that historical day.

This is the declaration?

This is the declaration?

This is the declaration?!

Search them thoroughly.

(Leaving no stone unturned)

(A ruthless search)

Tie them up.

(The instructions hidden in his belt is found)

Tie them up right now.

Where are you taking us?

(Helplessly dragged away)

(What will happen to the three of them?)

(What sound is that...?)

(The phone starts ringing in the hotel)

(Approaching without hesitation)

Please find Mr. Cosmos for me.

- Yes. / - There's a message.

Mr. Cosmos?

"When you ask, 'What do you do for a headache?'

The one who answers 'clover' is our spy."

"If you reply 'cosmos flower' to that person,

you will be given a bag."

We have to say 'cosmos flower' upon hearing 'clover.'

(A signpost for 'Mr. Cosmos' appears)

There's a message for Mr. Cosmos.

(Seems like she's summoning the escapers)

Yes, that's us.

- Are you Mr. Cosmos? / - Yes, I am.

Let me guide you.

This way, please.

Please answer the phone.

What is your name?

My name is Cosmos.

Just wait for a moment.

- That's us, right? / - Yes, it is.

(That's a message for us, right...?)

This is a message from Mr. Clover.

(The receptionist reveals a note)

"I had to leave as it was getting late.

I left it at the place where the tiger and dragon meet."

(A message from the spy who had to leave earlier)

There's a tiger here?

The place where the tiger meets the dragon.

(That's where the bag is!)

(Searching begins)

There's something over there.

Over there.

Underneath. Is that a folding screen?

(A closet decorated with a folding screen and some bowls)

Here it is.

Tiger and...

(A tiger and dragon on the screen)

It's where the tiger meets the dragon.

(But the cabinet is locked)

Wait. This is how it is normally.

Are we supposed to fold this?

Fold it?

(Fold the screen so the tiger meets the dragon...?)

It doesn't work?

Did he put something here?

It looks like something fits here.

- Right? / - Yes.

Something like a cup.

What about this cup?

(Good)

Tiger.

- Does it fit? / - Yes, it does.

The dragon is right here.

(They put tiny cups in front of the tiger and dragon)

(Silent...)

Are the cups supposed to be full? With coffee?

(Are the cups too light...?)

There are some coffee beans.

(The find coffee beans that will add weight to the cups)

(A second attempt after adding beans)

(Silent)

The place where the tiger and dragon meet.

This isn't right?

(They look around the hall too)

The place where the tiger and dragon meet.

Dragon?

This is a dragon.

I think this will fit perfectly.

(Exact same shape as the hole)

Let's put this in for now.

Put it in the middle.

This is where the tiger and dragon meet.

Let's put this here.

(Click)

Does it stick?

Okay.

It's a magnet.

(When you don't know where you are~?)

(Try everything)

(What happened?)

The coffee here is delicious, isn't it?

This hotel's coffee is quite famous.

That's how the tiger and dragon meet.

- They met. / - There was only one.

(The meeting between the tiger and the dragon)

(Our teamwork is great)

(Hotel Team found the bag!)

I enjoyed my drink.

Goodbye.

I pray for your success.

As expected, the coffee in hotels are...

Of course, it's the best.

(Leaving while awkwardly chatting)

That was amazing.

(A little time to be proud of themselves)

(Meanwhile, the other 3 are locked up by Japanese soldiers)

Hurry up, get in!

(The 3 of them are pushed inside)

(The door is locked with a bolt)

Byungjae, somebody is unconscious over there.

(Temporary Detention Center)

I think that's Yeo Woong's brother.

He was tortured.

(A heap of school clothes)

My brother who was disguised as a student was captured.

I think he is currently being tortured somewhere.

Wait. Can't we untie this by ourselves?

(They untie their hands first)

(They look around after taking a deep breath)

(Sombre)

Since his face is covered, I think he has passed away.

Shouldn't we check first?

Shall I uncover it?

Yes. That'll make him feel more comfortable.

(Carefully removing the reed blind)

(A man that has been through a lot of suffering)

He must have left a message for us.

(Find the thing that he tried to protect with his last breath)

(They check the uniform)

Yeo Ho.

(Yeo Ho, Yeo Woong's brother)

There's a letter in his hat.

(Taking out the letter hidden deep in the hat)

(What is written on the letter?)

(The hotel team return to the store after retrieving the bag)

(Greeting energetically)

Did you find the item?

Yes, we did.

Please give it to me.

We should look at it together.

I'll give this to President Yeo.

What about us?

- Please wait for a moment. / - Okay.

Please wait over here.

Okay.

- Let's eat some peanuts. / - Shall we have a snack?

Peanuts.

(President Yeo comes down immediately)

- Magnificent job. / - Thank you.

(Standing right after they sat down)

We did it.

Please have a seat.

(Sitting down immediately after standing up)

Shall we check what's in here?

Yes.

We searched for the spy...

He has the key.

(Yeo Woong opens the bag using his key)

(What is in the bag...?)

Thank you.

This is the item that we've been waiting for.

(The item the association waited longingly for)

(A wooden block of the Korean flag)

In order to prepare for tomorrow's uprising,

we have been waiting so long for this block.

(In order to make the Korean flag)

(They needed the wood block)

(Yeo Woong heads somewhere with the block)

That's a secret door.

Be quiet.

(The rhythm of Korean cheering, e.g: at the Olympics)

(The door is open)

(Before them, is revealed...)

(Secret Room)

(As there was no easy way to create it)

(there was no official Korean flag for the March 1st movement)

We have good news.

Our flag's wooden block has arrived safely.

Please come here.

Hello.

I almost teared up there.

We entered the door silently to go to a secret room.

The room was filled with people who were clearly students.

How did they manage

to start the March 1st Movement back then?

There were only a few young men and women.

But they made and distributed so many Korean flags.

That thought was so touching.

When I think about it, they were much younger than us

when they organised this movement. They were all students.

I think that's incredible.

Could I have done that at a young age

as a middle or high school student?

I don't think I could have.

I feel proud, and sorry, and grateful to my country.

Let's make the Korean flag.

You paint it...

(For their independence)

(The only weapon in a non-violent movement)

(Our flag)

(Tomorrow... students, farmers, women, and workers)

(will shake the earth with their energetic cheers)

What do you think of this?

It's pretty.

This is all thanks to you.

Please start working right away.

Understood.

Let's take our leave.

Fighting. Stay strong.

Good luck.

Fighting. Take care.

(Their hearts are heavy as they step out)

Your friends who went to the pawnshop have yet to return.

Please have a seat while you wait for them.

Those guys are slow.

(Hotel Team: Mission accomplished)

- It feels like... / - We're the aces.

(At that time)

(A group of people are heading to the store)

(They enter while being welcomed)

(Who are they?)

Please don't be flustered.

They are friends, also fighting for independence.

Hello.

Please introduce yourselves.

We come to help with the movement.

Thank you.

(More people are coming in)

Nice to see you.

There's a lot of people coming.

(There are so many of them that the store becomes packed)

"Declaration of Independence."

"We declare that Joseon is an independent country

and that the people of Joseon own the land of this country.

We'd like the whole world to know of these facts.

All humans are equal

and we will always aim to give our descendants

the rights to own land for our people to live on."

"This declaration is the continuation

of our history which began 5,000 years ago

and the devotion of 20 million people of Joseon.

We hope that our people will continue to improve themselves

and keep pace with the big changes in the world

that mankind is making by following their conscience."

"This is the will of the Heavens and the global trend.

This is the product of providing rights

for humanity to be able to live together.

Nothing in this world can stop us gaining our independence."

"Date: 1st of March, 4252 years after the establishment of Joseon.

Representatives of the Joseon people: 33.'

Earlier, they mentioned the Year of Gimi.

I wondered why it sounded familiar to me.

When the March 1st Movement took place,

it was on the 1st of March 1919, which is also the Year of Gimi.

In order to make this declaration and announce it,

many people went through all sorts of hardships.

When we were searching for this declaration earlier,

we were captured by those Japanese people.

He hid the Declaration of Independence in his hat

so that we could get a hold of it.

(Unwavering in the face of merciless torture)

We have to make sure to deliver this.

You should keep it safe.

Yes. I'll hold on to this.

I think he risked his life to protect this.

(The will of independence in exchange for life)

Since we have the Declaration of Independence now,

we can pass this to Yeo Woong.

(Now to return to Hanabi)

How are we going to escape from this place?

(How do we get out of here)

Isn't there a way for us to leave this place?

The door is locked from outside, isn't it?

(A bar seals the door tight from the outside)

(He thought of something?)

We can fit the chopsticks through the gap.

(Use chopsticks)

(to lift the bar?)

We can just use chopsticks.

(He puts the chopsticks through the gap)

I think I can lift the bar.

(One chopstick)

(appears from between the gap)

(Struggling)

I got it.

(All they have to do is leave)

(Coughing)

(Suddenly a weak cough comes from Yeo Ho)

He isn't dead.

He's alive.

Excuse me.

Are you conscious?

Thank god he's still alive.

- I think he's very weak. / - He was tortured badly.

Shall we carry him?

Let's dress him up and cover his face with his hat

and take him to a safe place.

To Yeo Woong? Okay.

If you don't mind, please let us...

(They carefully prop him up)

Are you able to put on your clothes?

We have to cover him up.

I'll put the hat on you.

(His scars are covered by the clothes and hat)

(The larger two support him on both sides)

We can carry him like this.

- Make sure it's not too obvious. / - We have to be natural.

(Cautiously opening the door)

The door is open.

(Exiting the temporary detention centre)

Where should we head to?

Are we supposed to go to Hanabi?

(Their destination is Hanabi)

Please be careful.

Do we go to Hanabi?

Stone stairs.

People are staring at us weirdly.

We have to move quickly.

(Acting natural)

We have to look natural.

(Firstly block their view)

I can't believe a student decided to drink so much.

- This is exhausting. / - My goodness.

What caused him to resort to day drinking?

I wonder.

He reeks of alcohol.

He can't even handle a drink.

We may as well have another round.

Yes. Let's drink more here.

(Trying to justify their entrance)

((Due to their acting?) Thankfully arriving without any trouble)

(On guard until the end)

Yeo Woong.

(An unexpected party arrives)

(Everybody rushes over)

Sir.

What?

Sir!

What happened?

Oh my god, are you okay?

He said that his brother was disguised as a student.

I thought you were dead.

Thank you so much for saving him.

- It's our pleasure. / - Take him upstairs.

(Yeo Ho is in a serious condition)

He was unconscious.

(Looking around)

(Making sure that they weren't followed)

We found this in his hat.

(Delivering the Declaration of Independence)

Please look at this.

This is the Declaration of Independence.

(Despite being imprisoned and tortured)

Thank you.

I will never forget your kindness.

(He protected it with his life)

(Declaration of Independence)

You did something great.

Let's give them a big round of applause.

(Massive applause for their help)

You're so cool!

(Not sure what to do)

Since you have helped us,

it's our turn to help you, isn't it?

(Nervous)

He will bring you to the person

who can help you.

- You did a great job today. / - Not at all.

(Right as their comradeship is blooming)

(... What about us?)

Thank you very much.

(During the thankful hugs with the Pawnshop Team)

- Thank you. / - Thank you very much.

(Alienated)

Please go forward.

Yes. Us, too.

You were over there?

We found the Korean flag.

(Advancing to main stage proudly)

The three of them retrieved the Korean flag wooden block.

(Applauding again so they won't be upset)

(Clapping)

(Tearing up)

Thank you.

(He shakes hands with the Hotel Team)

We shall do this

together.

Yes.

Until the East Sea's waves are dry, and Mt. Baekdu is worn away

(The Korean national anthem)

may God protect and preserve our country.

Rose of Sharon, a thousand miles of range and river land;

Guarded by her people, ever may Korea stand.

(For their boundless independence)

(2 million people protested for 2 months after March 1st, 1919)

(Injured: 15,961) (Dead: 7,509)

(We do not know most of their names)

(The ones who turned the wheels of history)

(And gave us a better life)

It ignites something in me.

It was a moment that touched my heart.

The atmosphere was getting heated

and it made me tear up.

They must've endured so much danger and suffering.

That's what I kept thinking about.

I wondered if I could have done it, if it was my reality.

A lot of people sacrificed themselves for this cause

in order to let us live in this beautiful world today.

Rather than merely being touched,

I was embarrassed at myself, for not knowing our history better.

(It's time for the escapers to depart)

Farewell.

Now, let's depart.

Thank you!

Please stay safe.

(The independence activists warmly bid them farewell)

Long live Korea!

Long live Korea!

I feel weird.

We can't let our guards down yet.

- Meeting people of the past. / - We can't relax yet.

We went there earlier... Was his name Yeo Ho?

Right, Yeo Woong's brother.

The first time we saw him, we thought he was dead.

He was covered with a mat.

We thought he passed away.

But then, he coughed as we were about to leave.

We covered his face in order to come here.

He hid the Declaration of Independence in his hat.

We were just going to take it and leave.

We thought he passed away as he was covered.

But he coughed as we were about to leave.

- That's a relief. / - Where is it?

I will now guide you to meet

the one who will help you. Please follow me.

You have blood on you.

What is that?

(Confused)

We have bounties!

You are on the wanted list.

Who is this?

(The escapers wanted posters)

The reward for me is $50.

We're all $50.

- Who is that? / - Is that me?

Obviously.

They drew Hodong's nose to make him look like a bad person.

Jongmin.

That's me?

They drew Jongmin so haphazardly.

I don't think that's me.

You can tell it's Donghyun by the jaw.

(Messy hair and large eyes)

(His face looks sunken as if he has been starved for a long time)

(Western hair, a ruffian's facial hair)

(Petite figure)

(Big eyes and a small nose)

(The best looking one)

People will be able to identify us.

There's a description of us too.

We all look like old men.

We're independence activists now...

We have to be extremely cautious.

Okay.

(The total reward to capture them: $300)

- Byungjae. / - Yes.

Just now, we brought back the wooden block

to make the Korean flag.

They'll use those flags for tomorrow's revolt.

(Covering his recognisable facial hair)

It's February.

March in the Year of Gimi... It's 1 March.

(They believe the date is the 28th of February 1919)

(While trying to guess the date)

(Policemen approach them from afar)

1919.

Wait.

It's the police. Let's go the opposite way.

- Where? / - This way.

Over here!

(Running aimlessly)

Get on the tram, now!

Get on this?

(Obediently boarding the tram)

What is happening?

Please hide yourselves.

(Packed tightly, total value: $300)

(Approaching quickly)

(A slightly less obscured $50)

(The distance is closing)

The policemen!

(Trembling)

We passed them.

(Crisis safely avoided)

We have arrived.

Where are we going?

(Stopped in front of a western suit shop)

(The activist goes to the alley next to the shop)

Hurry up.

Please enter before the policemen get here.

(Keeping watch)

I wish you all the best.

Thank you.

- Hello. / - Who are you?

(Rapidly entering from the side door)

(Their helpers welcome them)

You saw the reward to catch us, didn't you?

It's us.

What are you saying?

I thought he might know us.

Of course they know us.

- We're on the wanted list. / - Yes.

We will be tortured if we get captured.

We're independence activists.

(They head to the 2nd floor...)

Welcome.

(Suit Store: 2nd Floor)

(Amidst the sombre atmosphere)

(There are people praying...)

(And someone's portrait enshrined on the wall)

(Also Sugwang)

Sir!

Please sit here.

(Sugwang who saved them earlier)

(What is he doing here?)

(A familiar symbol is hung everywhere)

(And a necklace of the same shape)

Do you know the meaning of this necklace?

Please look at this.

- Why? / - Where did you find this?

This? Before we travelled through time,

we found this in a safe.

Someone who passed away had this necklace.

(What does this necklace mean?)

We are the Iron Room Association.

Iron Room Association?

We protect the room that is made of iron.

A room made of iron?

This association has existed for more than 1,000 years.

Our ancestors from long ago

met someone from the future who rode the iron room.

His name was Kim Taeim.

(Kim Taeim?)

That's how our organisation began.

(They are shocked to hear a familiar name)

My name is Dr. Kim Taeim.

I am leaving a record

about the time machine which I have developed.

He was travelling through time

and provided a lot of help to the people of Joseon.

(I see!)

When we didn't have food to eat due to the drought,

he taught us a new method of farming.

Even when we faced an unfamiliar disease,

he taught us how it could be treated.

(Divine knowledge to those from the past)

That's only a fraction of what he taught us.

He did some great things.

Iron Room.

That must be the time machine.

I think this is an association of people that trust Dr. Kim,

who work to protect the time machine.

He also told our ancestors

to wait for a group of people who will travel from the future.

That's us.

For more than 1,000 years,

we waited for those who will travel here from the future.

- For more than a millennium? / - They waited for us?

There is something that we have to give

to those travellers.

Where is it?

(With one glance from Sugwang)

(Chilbok presents a crate)

(A square chest)

I think it's fuel.

(Stopping)

There's something...

that I must confirm with you.

(Confirm?)

On July 11th, 1989...

who qualified to compete in the Baekdu category?

Back then, we wrote a letter!

(Shocked)

On July 11th, 1989...

Kang Hodong defeats Lee Mangi

and becomes the Baekdu champion.

That would be Kang Hodong.

That's me.

(It's you?)

In that case, what is his nickname (positive)?

(Nickname?)

Piglet?

What?

Piglet?

(Doesn't know what the term means)

You have a nickname?

I don't have a nickname.

He told our ancestors

that you wrote down your nickname.

We did?

The Baekdu champion from the 11th of July 1989...

My nickname from that time...

- Brat? / - Brat.

Kang Hodong the Brat?

Is it Kang Hodong the Brat?

We're wrong? What did we write?

Didn't we write, "Don't pretend to be a know-it-all"?

Kang Hodong the know-it-all?

What did we write?

I think we wrote, "Kang Hodong, the something."

He qualified to compete in the Baekdu category.

Kang Hodong, the rookie.

I was a rookie at that point.

I think we wrote, "Kang Hodong, the something."

Rookie!

Rookie?

Rookie.

(Rookie is the right answer)

You're definitely the people we've been waiting for.

(Succeeded in obtaining the chest)

(The rookie feels at ease)

(The wooden crate is opened)

What is it? Is it fuel?

(The items that Dr. Kim left for them...)

(2 sealed letters)

(And an empty fuel canister?)

(There's no fuel)

There's no fuel?

Sir.

(Flustered at the empty container)

Give it to me.

Is he going to fill it?

Fill this canister.

- Thank goodness. / - He left it empty just in case.

(Chilbok goes to fill the empty bottle)

What is this?

(A neatly tied silk note)

What is this?

It's from Dr. Kim, isn't it?

This is the letter we wrote!

This is amazing.

It's the letter! The one Byungjae wrote.

(Familiar, poor handwriting)

(Preserved in it's original state)

He kept it here?

The letter written on the 20th of January, 2020

appeared in front of us again, aged.

I was the one who wrote that letter.

It wasn't a photocopy or re-written.

It's my handwriting!

The original letter was right in front of my eyes.

That was when I got my 1st round of goosebumps.

"To Dr. Kim Taeim.

Hello. I'm sure you're shocked.

We are from the future and

travelled using your time machine from January 20th 2020.

We're leaving you this as we have something to tell you.

On the 3rd of February 1990,

CEO Yang Jiwon will put drugs into your coffee

to get rid of you.

After he leaves, don't drink the coffee in your mug.

P.S.

On the 11th of July, 1989... Kang Hodong the rookie

will defeat Lee Mangi and become the Baekdu champion.

He was told not to act like a know-it-all and ratted on that person."

This letter has aged.

The colour is different.

Please look at that.

What is this?

We carved the words that Dr. Kim has left for you on a stone.

These are copies.

We were afraid that the stone might be lost to time.

We rubbed the text to keep it stored.

Read it.

"This is Dr. Kim Taeim..."

(What message did Dr. Kim leave for them?)

"If you are the people who came from the future

of 20 January 2020,

it means that you have safely escaped my lab."

"In the letter I left you,

I said I would stop researching time.

But that wasn't true."

So he kept researching.

"This might be the ambition of a scientist

who wants to study the relations of past and future, of mankind."

That's possible.

"As you are aware, it was hard to find fuel for the time machine

in the era that I lived in.

Without a sponsor,

I could never travel through time again."

"While worrying about that,

I discovered that our country once had an abundance of this fuel

and it would be easy to find in the past.

As such, I travelled far back in time."

This is amazing.

Our country had an abundance?

What is the fuel?

He said we had a lot.

What can we find easily here, but not in our time?

- It must be that! / - What?

We don't have it anymore. Based on the colour...

This might be wrong, though.

Is this related to fireflies?

We don't have fireflies anymore.

There are loads.

- Really? / - Yeah, whenever we shoot.

I don't have any in my neighbourhood.

For example, it could be the highest quality water.

Right.

It's something related to plankton and stuff...

(Shy)

(They quickly read the next page)

"According to my plans,

there will be people who will be helping you

in your current time."

"I asked them to protect the time machine

until people who come from the future arrive.

They will tell you where the machine is located."

(Okay)

"While I write this letter, I am in a different time period

and my life is at stake for political reasons.

I need your help."

In the time machine, please enter 'Maehok', 'Boramae',

'Russia', and 'Murisu',

and come find me in my time period.

I will be waiting for you."

I think we have to rescue Dr. Kim right now.

Is he captured?

Does that mean he's not here right now?

Right, he isn't.

He's trapped somewhere for political reasons.

- But... / - He's back.

(Chilbok is back after getting the fuel)

It'd be great if we could take a lot of fuel with us.

He said that a long time ago

our country had an abundance of this fuel.

We better go and use the machine, then.

We have to find a way to enter the keywords he gave us.

It would be the same as how we did it last time, no?

We check the syllables that overlap with the lyrics for 'To Heaven.'

(The input device and letter are the same)

It's 'To Heaven.'

Turn on 'Jin' if it is in the letter.

And the syllable 'Shim' if we see that, too.

(They entered the code into the time machine)

- Let's go to the time machine. / - We can solve it there.

Where is the time machine?

When our country is facing a crisis

and whenever this place becomes dangerous,

we move the iron room.

(The mysterious bunker was the final hideout)

(the iron room association moved the time machine to)

- Iron room. / - Time machine.

It is now kept in Iron Room Electronics.

We saw that building earlier.

Iron Room Electronics.

(Seen down-town while drinking cinnamon punch)

(This is the building!)

Take this key and open the door.

Okay, Sugwang. Thank you.

Thank you.

(They are ready to leave)

We will gain our independence soon.

(They show their support before they leave)

Let's bid farewell to Sugwang.

Sir.

We wish you all the best.

(All bowing to their saviour)

(Wishing the best for a safe liberation)

- Please do your best. / - We will gain independence.

(Also bowing to the members of the Iron Room Association)

(Heading out to fulfil their final duty)

(Time remaining)

(Cautiously opening the door)

(On high alert)

(Moving quickly after checking it's safe)

Just walk naturally.

Where are we supposed to go again?

Iron Room Electronics.

That building.

It's that one.

Behind the bone broth restaurant.

Don't walk as if you're being chased. Just walk naturally.

- The weather's great. / - There's nobody here.

There's nobody outside compared to before.

- They're about to go to bed... / - It's so quiet here.

I guess it's their bedtime.

(The street is weirdly silent)

(Doing everything that looks suspicious)

That's the place.

(Arriving at Iron Room Electronics)

We're on the notice board.

Let's go in right now.

(There isn't much time left!)

(Lock found)

- Is this the lock? / - I think so.

It's unlocked.

That's it.

Open it.

(The locked door is open)

It's a puzzle.

(The block for 'Mu' has fallen off)

Did it fall off?

There's the word 'protect' here.

(A slide puzzle of the lyrics from the national anthem)

"Guarded by her people, ever may Korea stand."

Okay.

I'm good at these. Can I do it?

We can start with the top line.

He's fast.

(Quickly sliding)

That's right.

(The top line is done)

"Guarded by her people, ever may Korea stand."

After this, only the bottom is left.

Right, we'll have one blank.

No, there's a lot left. The second half.

Let's start from the top.

How many letters are there?

(There's no way to know the first letter)

- What's the letter that fell? / - It's 'Mu' for 'none.'

- What is that for? / - I wonder.

We have to figure that out.

"Rose of Sharon, a thousand miles..."

Part of "thousand" is here.

(First reciting the national anthem)

Do we start with "Rose of Sharon"?

Let's start with that.

Let's start from "Rose of Sharon."

(Slick)

(All-around security)

- 'Mu' is at the start, with "Rose of Sharon"? / - Hurry up.

(In a rush)

(About to laugh)

(Another slick move)

Hold on. There's 'Mu', right?

Which is 'Gung'?

Isn't it this character?

We can leave this empty, then.

Is this 'Hwa', then?

- It's 'Hwa' for the rose. / - No, for river.

We have to do it again if 1 is wrong.

Yeah, all of those are the correct characters.

Shall we give this a shot first?

(Go with the flow)

"Rose of Sharon, thousand miles..." We just need that part.

"Thousand..."

- Where is 'Ri'? / - Here.

(Assembling the puzzle rapidly)

How are you doing that?

Hwa.

Wait. Is this right?

If it's like this... I went about this the wrong way.

We have to start form here to put 'Mu' at the top.

Why?

That should be the final blank.

Without a blank, this can't move.

What do you mean?

"...ever may Korea stand."

I'll change this one.

- 'Stand' has to be at the end. / - That's right.

What is he talking about?

I'll keep watch...

Ah, seriously...

(Career change into doorkeepers)

(Joining)

We shall keep watch.

(Naturally the puzzle-solvers behind them)

I think back in those days,

they would've lived something like this.

Those days, people would sleep when it gets dark

and wake up at dawn.

You must have lived for a long time.

I'm reminded of my past life.

Let's just move them all.

- Mix everything up. / - Okay.

(Let's start with the bottom line)

(Puzzle ASMR)

- "...ever may Korea stand." / - Right!

"Her people."

(Puzzle Shindong is on fire)

- Okay. / - Done.

Are you done?

We've got 2 lines.

"Guarded by her people."

(Moving to behold this rare sight)

(4 lines are done)

Okay. We're done.

"Rose of Sharon" so "A thousand" has to start here.

- "Thousand" is here. / - Which one is 'Hwa'?

This is 'Hwa.'

"Thousand" has to be here, and this has to be there.

I guess the two 'Hwa' syllables are different?

"Rose of Sharon, a thousand miles of range and river"

This is wrong. Which one is 'Hwa'?

It should be one of these.

There are two 'Hwa' characters!

The word 'Hwa' for 'fancy' in Korean uses a different character.

Right.

I think it's this one.

Doesn't this character look fancy?

(Unsure)

These two are similar, I think this is 'Hwa.'

(Both characters have the same root)

This character has the same root.

- This might be the other one. / - We just have to switch them?

Yes, that's right.

"Rose of Sharon, a thousand miles..."

Right here...

We have to make sure these two are correct.

(Shindong's theory: It's easier to arrange)

(the top and bottom lines at the same time)

These two characters have to be over here.

These are 'Sam' and 'Ryeo'?

I think this is 'Gung' and this is 'Ryeo.'

Let's try to do this.

Let's try and use the phonetics to solve it.

(Their first attempt is according to Byungjae's intuition)

We have to change this again.

- This is 'Gung', isn't it? / - Yes, it is.

"Thousand" that's it!

This one.

Swap them. It has to go to the top.

- You changed it? / - That's 'Hwa' for 'flower.'

(He calmly rearranges the blocks)

Done.

(No, it isn't)

(Sharp eyes)

(Using his bear-like hands)

(And moves without hesitation)

What's the matter?

"Rose of Sharon, a thousand miles..."

(Got everything wrong except for "Thou")

What?

(Resentful)

Hodong wanted to give it a try.

(Breathes heavily)

- We're in trouble. / - You can do this.

We're almost done.

(Again?!)

Hodong, you can't force...

You can't force it!

(Whatever)

(The rookie explodes with anger)

If we don't get it right, we have to move the third line, too.

That's right.

(They can't solve the top two lines)

Only the top two are wrong, aren't they?

- Don't you think so, too? / - Everything else is right.

(The bottom lines are right, while the top ones are wrong)

(Something is weird)

Do we have something we can use to write?

If we can write numbers on these blocks...

(Donghyun immediately goes out)

I think I saw something we can use to write here.

But there's no ink stick.

There's an ink stone. Okay.

(Returning with an ink stone)

Can we use this to write?

- Let me try. / - Just wait a moment.

(Cutting it to make it easier to write with)

- Okay. / - We cut this.

Can you write with this?

I feel like tearing up.

(Trying to write with a corner of ink stone)

You can't write with that, can you?

Yes, he can.

12. It's better now that I can mark it like this.

P.O, please shuffle the blocks again.

Just shuffle them so that I can start again.

(Shuffling)

You'll do it again?

I think I have to start again. We've come this far

but there are 3 that don't match.

I have no clue how and what to change in the sequence.

I think it'll be better if I just start

from the beginning again.

- Okay. / - Shindong.

(Starting with a clean slate)

(Slowly solving the puzzle once again)

You can do it, Shindong. You can.

- 'People.' / - 'Great.'

The 2 characters for 'Dae' have changed.

Why didn't I think of this earlier?

We might be able to solve it if we just exchange these two.

The sequence changes even though the character is the same.

What's the number for those two? Did you write them down?

(Both of them are the same character)

(But if you can interchange these lines...)

(the arrangement of these blocks can change too)

15, 16. These are wrong. We have to put these in, too.

(The ones at the top are brought to the bottom)

- This is amazing. / - I think this is right.

- It feels right? / - Please.

(Arranging the puzzle at Mach speed)

This is the difficult part.

Done. We did it.

Done.

This is the answer we thought of.

- This is it. / - It's done?

We just have to put 'Mu' in.

- Changing the two 'Dae' characters worked? / - Yes.

Let's hold hands.

- I'll put it in. / - Please work.

(Desperately praying as 'Mu' goes in)

(Please open, door)

(It's open)

(Screaming in joy)

(A puzzle that puts them on the verge of tears)

I feel like tearing up.

(Our big and precious Shindong)

(Emotional scene)

Without you...

We wouldn't have escaped.

We had to swap them.

This is amazing.

Raise your hands!

My goodness!

Come here.

Get down here, right now!

Sir...

(Solving the puzzle delayed them so much)

(they ended up meeting the Lieutenant again)

Yeo Woong, the president of the Youth Independence Association.

Where is he?

- You did a lot for us. / - Not at all.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

We've never met him.

We don't know who that is.

No matter how much fuss you make,

Korea will never become an independent country.

You bastards got caught up in your sense of inferiority.

- Geez... how rude. / - And I...

could kill one of you Koreans

and nothing will happen to me.

You'll die like dogs here. Don't you get it?!

Shall I shoot one of you? You think I can't?

Who should I kill first?

Sure, you.

I'm going to count to 3. 1.

2.

Please stop!

Hold on! Hold on!

What happened?

On the count of 3. 1.

2.

Please stop!

Hold on! Hold on!

What happened?

Oh my gosh!

I am Clover.

Please hurry.

Clover.

Remember Clover?

The code for our mission earlier.

The spy.

"We planted a spy who works in the Governor General's Office."

"The one who replies with 'clover' is our spy."

(After murdering the Lieutenant)

(Clover fades into the night)

(Let's go in for now)

- This villain. / - He was the spy.

What a evil man...

We tried to locate the spy but we couldn't find him.

(The wall is boarded up)

(All of them enter the building)

(He peeks through the crack)

Hyung, I think you have to break this.

It's in there.

Who?

(The time machine!)

I think you have to break this.

- What? / - These boards.

(After taking a deep breath)

(Crash)

- Is it okay to break this? / - Yeah, we have to break it.

(Kicking)

(Or venting his anger)

(Destruction)

(Trying to stop the angry Hodong)

(But Captain Piglet is still thirsty)

(Be careful, Hodong)

(Starting to feel sorry for the wooden boards)

(Venting his anger from the previously unbreakable puzzle)

Okay. We can go in now.

We can go in now.

Who had the paper with the code?

Me!

Where is it?

(Ah...)

We have to take it with us or we'll forget.

(In case they forget the passcode)

(Carefully folding it)

(A total mess)

(It's probably in here)

(Piglet remodels the door, not knowing the situation)

(Why don't you have it?)

(I'm dead)

You tore the wood!

(About to be torn, too)

(Welcome)

Wait.

It was in my clothes.

- What? / - In my clothes.

(What?)

(Trembling)

I remember it!

It's 954125.

Amazing.

954125.

(Byungjae's memory saves a life)

Be careful.

You should get in first.

(They meet the time machine again)

- You're so strong. / - Be careful.

(Entering)

We can just go in.

Let's go. We have to do this again.

We will go, but....

We have to enter 'Maehok', 'Boramae', 'Russia', and 'Murisu'.

(The time machine from the start of season 3)

It's not easy to remember.

(The panel is related to Dr. Kim's letter)

(Kim Jongdoor and the Strong Father worked together)

(to figure out the secret to the time input panel)

(But they don't remember it)

There's another hill to climb.

(The large hill)

"Are you..."

That doesn't fit.

What?

Is it, "To my beloved son"?

It's "To my beloved" somebody.

The first line was, "To my beloved wife."

"Are you okay?"

Yes, that's right.

"How are you... doing"?

That's not right.

"How are you?"

That might be it.

"Are you crying because I'm not there with you?"

(Slowly recalling their memories)

- 'Mae'! / - I think that's it.

Should I flip this?

Definitely.

(Maehok = Seduced, Boramae = Young hawk, Murisu = Irrational number)

'Maehok', 'Boramae', 'Russia', and 'Murisu.'

Each of us has to remember one.

Speak up when your syllable pops up.

- 'Maehok'. / - I choose 'Murisu'.

- I choose 'Russia.' / - 'Boramae.'

- What about the lyrics? / - You can do that.

"To my beloved..."

Who is it?

- Wife. / - "Wife."

"Are you okay?"

"How are you?"

"Are you crying because I'm not there with you?"

(Very nervous)

"Always (Mae-il)."

- 'Mae'.

I have 'Mae'' too.

"My beloved who used to always appear in my..."

- Was it 'dreams'? / - Yes, it is.

Nobody else?

Wait. What was the first line?

"To my beloved wife."

Russi'a'.

What's next?

"My beloved who used to always appear in my dreams."

"I haven't...

Bo! 'Bo'ramae.

been able to see you these days."

It wouldn't be 'Ri' instead of 'Ee' would it?

(Yeah that's incorrect)

'Hok' is here!

"Did something..."

There's 'Mu.'

- From 'Murisu'. / - 'Si' from 'Russia.'

"Did something...

'Ra' from 'Boramae.

happen?"

"You travelled so far...

'Su', from 'Murisu'!

that you can't come back..."

'Ri'!

"To me."

(Found everything x3)

"I pretended to be fine even without you by my side."

(They found another 'Bo'')

(Super anxious)

"Teasing me like this..."

(The song is about to end)

(Restless)

- "The rain..." / - 'Ra'!

(They are now in the final line)

- "If it rains..." / - There's a 'Ri.'

"If it rains..."

(Oh?)

"Behind the clouds..."

I don't think that was the last line.

(This is their current situation)

What was the last line?

"It is going to rain, wouldn't it?"

I don't remember the last line.

"From your beloved, Kim Taeim."

Wouldn't it be something like that?

Ah! "From your beloved husband, Kim Taeim."

Isn't it something like that?

But we haven't found a 'Ru.'

'Ru' from 'Russia.'

(A shy confession during the confusion)

"From your lover, Kim Taeim."

This happened so long ago.

I think it's "From your beloved husband, Kim Taeim."

Shall we double check?

Let's double check it, one by one.

"To my beloved wife."

"Are you crying because I'm not there with you?"

'Ru'!

It's right there.

(They found all syllables)

(As expected of the Korean quiz winner, Donghyun)

I was just focusing on that syllable.

(Thank you, bro)

(Even finding another missed syllable)

"Your...

beloved husband, Kim Taeim."

Okay.

(Final check complete)

Let's go. Shall we?

(Let's leave now)

(Fuel inserted)

We've found at least one of every syllable, right?

Everything's been found.

I got all of them for 'Boramae', 'Maehok' was done too.

He had 'Russia', they had 'Murisu'.

I think we got it right.

Let's press it.

(What is their final destination?)

- Let's go. / - Yeah. Good job, everyone.

Please.

1, 2, 3.

Let's go. We have to leave now.

(If they're wrong, they'll travel to a random time)

We'll travel randomly if we're wrong.

Right?

We have to save Dr. Kim.

Here we go!

My leg!

Next week!

(The special episode we prepared!)

We all picked our favourite episode.

So we have to hide our choices.

He must've picked the Bread Factory!

That's sharp, P.O!

Hope Institute was really good, though~

Hodong, did you pick Demon Prison?

(A parade of stunning presents)

(Making a fuss)

(In addition, the art team's soul-bearing)

(Before & after appearances of the sets)

(And it's time to settle many questions raised by the viewers)

(The truth behind the vent)

(Jo Pilhee PD's identity)

(The briefcase projector's mechanics)

Time machine!

We're riding this. To the future.

How did they move the time machine?

You really burned through money.
