ALL NAMES, ORGANIZATIONS, AND INCIDENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTIONAL

[birds chirping]

Han Tae-sul! Come out and play!

Han Tae-sul! Let's play!

Han Tae-sul!

Han Tae-sul!

-[Sigma] Come out and play! -[Tae-sul] What's going on?

The Control Bureau.

They've joined forces and they're not hiding it.

-[scoffs] -[cell phone buzzing]

Seo Won-ju?

You remember me now?

How disappointing. I never once forgotten you.

Oh, well, I'm sorry about that.

But you weren't exactly memorable back in school.

[Sigma] I thought you'd, at least, have a vague memory of me.

We were quite close then.

Were we?

That's not really how I remember things.

Didn't you just follow me around all the time?

[clicks tongue]

Well, that's all in the past now, so don't be so hurt about it.

It's been a while.

We've got a lot of catching up to do, don't we?

You prick, you should have come here alone.

-[radio beeps] -[Hyun-seung] Fire a warning shot.

-[gunshot] -[both gasps]

[murmurs]

-Snipers. Keep your head down. -Oh, shit.

-Do we move in now? -No, no, no, I'll go in alone.

[Hyun-seung] Okay. The snipers will cover you.

-[sighs] What's the plan again? -You go inside and talk to them.

And then, when they're cornered, we'll take care of them.

Okay.

[breathes in]

So where are you?

Hey, where are you?

[cell phone beeps]

[footsteps crunching]

[snickers]

He hung up.

[chuckles]

HONESTY, DILIGENCE, SERVICE

Tae-sul.

♪ Where, oh, where are you hiding? ♪

♪ Are you here? ♪

Here I come.

I'm coming to get you!

When I catch you, you're dead!

I sound scary.

Hope you're hiding.

[pants] Hey, we're not…

-We're not getting caught today, are we? -I'm not sure.

-What? -I mean, if we find Seo Won-ju

and get rid of him, we'll win.

Okay, but, what if, what if he knows we're coming, what then?

That's possible.

-Let's get out of here first. -Okay, okay.

[suspenseful music playing]

[gun clicks]

-[gunshot] -[pot shatters]

-[gunshot] -[exclaims]

Ah, that jerk!

[Hyun-seung] Targets spotted in Class 1-3.

Coming!

[snickers]

How come it took you all this time to remember him?

I can't remember every kid I went to school with.

Oh, right, you were anti-social.

-Damn it. -[Sigma] Han Tae-sul.

[footsteps approaching]

Boo!

Watch out!

-[gunfire] -[glass shattering]

ARCHIVE ROOM

[thuds]

[clattering]

-[thuds] -Come on.

-[Seo-hae grunts] -[thuds]

[both panting]

[exclaims]

Tae-sul!

You haven't changed one bit.

[chuckles]

When you consider someone a loser or an idiot,

you wipe the person from your memory, so you won't waste your brain capacity.

To you, everyone else looks like an extra in a movie.

Teacher One, Two, Three. [footsteps crunching on glass shards]

Student One, Two, Three.

But you know what?

There might be somebody among them that actually matters.

Someone you're meant to be with.

Or someone evil

who will destroy the world.

That's why

it's important that we never mistreat anyone.

That's what I think.

-[footsteps approaching] -[guns click]

Sir, what should we do?

We'll just stick to the plan.

-This is insane. -Why did we come in here?

This was the only place where we could hide.

Everything else is blocked off.

-[Seo-hae] You went to this school! -[Tae-sul] I transferred schools a lot.

-[stutters] I barely remember this place. -[Seo-hae sighs]

This isn't good.

I don't know how we're gonna get out of this.

[pants]

Okay, Seo-hae, calm down.

-[whispers] Calm down. -They'll catch us if we wait.

[ominous music playing]

-Are you ready? -No.

What?

They can't kill you,

so they won't shoot right away.

I'll go out first and…

[whispers] You'll go out first, and then what?

What's wrong?

That's weird.

What is?

Why aren't they coming in?

They could just barge in, but they're waiting.

I wonder why.

You're right.

[gasps]

Maybe…

Last time…

We went out there.

That's why they're waiting.

They're expecting us to repeat what we did.

[sighs]

Seo-hae.

Uh, I think this is a good time to

do something I've been wanting to do.

[sighs]

-It's not the right time for-- -[Tae-sul shushes]

[whispers] Just a moment.

Stay still for just a moment.

[scraping]

[Tae-sul] 2020, October…

28th.

[inhales]

The current time is…

-15:50. -What are you doing?

Fifty… Okay.

Uh, Stephen Hawking was a famous scientist.

He discovered something called "Hawking radiation."

Black holes are…

Uh, never mind.

Anyway, he believed that time travel was truly possible.

So then, he decided to throw a secret party to prove it.

He wrote out invitations

and then sent them everywhere he possibly could.

And he actually threw the party at that exact time.

Because he truly believed that time travelers from the future

would see those invitations and attend the party,

if a time machine existed.

Someone in the future might see this and come to your rescue?

-Mm-hmm. -[metal clanks]

[scoffs]

Why are they still in there?

[guns click]

[knocks]

Excuse me. Hello?

[scraping]

HAN TAE-SUL

GANG SEO-HAE

[suspenseful music playing]

HELP US

[Tae-Sul grunts]

"October 28th, 2020, 15:50.

Han Tae-sul and Gang Seo-hae are trapped in here and in danger.

Please help us."

Okay, done.

Continue. Then what?

[hums]

[gunshot echoes from a distance]

-What was that? -Hey, what's going on?

-[man 1] We're trying to find out-- -[gunshot]

[radio signal wavers]

[groans] What's going on?

[shushes]

-[gunshot] -[grunts]

[man 2] Our snipers are-- We're under attack!

-[gunfire] -[glass shattering]

It isn't safe, we have to go.

-[gunshot] -[explosion]

Guess it worked.

-What? -It worked.

[rattling]

[gun clicks]

[suspenseful music playing]

It changed. Who's here?

-[radio crackles] -[man] Sir.

Sir!

[suspenseful music playing]

Who-- Who's this?

[man] Come to the east exit. I'll bring the car around.

What? That's my car.

[pants]

Get in.

Bong-seon?

[wheezes]

-Bong-seon. -Sir.

It's you.

[sighs]

[Tae-sul] What happened to you?

[Bong-seon wheezes]

Bong-seon!

-[Tae-sul whimpers] -[Bong-seon wheezes]

[groans]

-Bong-seon, are you okay? -Yes.

[breathes in deeply, sighs]

It's electricity?

It's an oil lamp. They get smuggled into the country.

[metal clattering]

Why are you helping us?

The war.

How are you gonna stop it?

That day at PEXCO, why did you save Tae-sul?

I did?

You told him to get down before the shot was fired.

I was shot and fell into a coma.

Been pretty pissed about that.

So come clean or be on your way.

Come on.

I found a letter.

It said I should go to Busan because Tae-sul would be shot there.

That the past and the future would keep on repeating itself,

and that I must stop the war this time.

Who sent you that?

Someone you can trust?

I asked you, who sent the letter?

I did.

I found it in my grave.

-Where? -Mapo Hospital.

Near the Hangang Bridge, by the army camp.

We good now?

Why did the war break out?

[sighs]

This time I'll make sure it won't.

"This time"?

[wind blowing]

[gun clatters, clicks]

[engine revving]

[metal squeaking]

[sighs]

Don't know about the countryside,

but the cities are under Sigma's control.

Those thugs that were after you also work for Sigma.

[guns clattering]

Little punks won't let you get on the uploader.

What do we do?

If you follow Subway Line 5 to Achasan, you'll find a bunker underground.

Inside, there is a passage to the uploader, I'll show you.

Why are you sharing this?

[rustling]

Because she saved my boss.

-You're not going with us? -No.

-Why not? -Because I died there.

I failed Tae-sul. Going back would be useless.

But still.

Those punks will follow you.

But I'll stall them, so move quickly.

[footsteps crunching on grass]

[exhales deeply]

JONGNO 3(SAM)-GA

[suspenseful music playing]

[water droplets echoing]

[Dong-gi sighs]

[somber music playing]

Everyone came down here when the war started.

Subway stations

were used as emergency shelters.

What does emergency mean?

[Dong-gi] It's like when a disaster hits unexpectedly.

What's a shelter?

Uh…

It's like our bunker.

Oh…

[clattering]

[ominous music playing]

[Dong-gi] They all must have been starving.

It's probably how most of them died.

[water droplets echoing]

What about you?

I had some earlier.

[sighs]

No way.

The level of radiation in the city is too high.

[bottle clatters]

Do you want to hear a story?

Years ago, before you were born,

your mom told me she wanted a kid.

I was against having one.

For real?

I struggled to take care of myself,

so raising a child in this tough world, just…

didn't feel right to me.

But the moment you were born, my whole world changed.

No matter how stressed I am,

the moment I'd hear you call me "dad",

[giggles]

all my fears went away.

[both chuckles]

[breathes deeply]

You taught me how to be happy.

Thanks to you, Seo-hae, I can smile every day.

You've given me such joy,

but I was never able to make you feel the same way.

I'm sorry.

Cops get paid peanuts.

What do you mean by that?

[chuckles]

It means we don't make a lot of money.

Oh… [chuckles]

I was heartbroken.

I couldn't provide you the way that other parents do for their kids.

"What if she takes after me and does poorly in school?"

[both chuckles]

"What if she can't get a job and never fit in?"

"What if she shows up one day with some weirdo and says,

'Hey, Dad, this is my boyfriend.'"

Hey.

I was always worried.

[sighs]

Even though I was always worried then,

I was much happier.

God, it's all my fault.

What do you mean? It's not your fault.

Seo-hae, promise me this one thing.

What?

Han Tae-sul, you must never be with him. Stay away.

[footsteps rustling, approaching]

[Dong-gi] Let's go.

[ominous music playing]

[guns cock]

ACHASAN

He said it's underground.

If we get surrounded there, we're finished.

[sighs]

-[Seo-hae] It's over there. -[metal squeaks]

We should split up.

[gun cocks]

[pants]

[ominous music playing]

[gunfire]

[gun cocks]

Dad!

[rocket whooshes]

-[glass shatters] -[groans]

-Dad, are you all right? -[gunfire]

I'm fine. Just go!

[gunfire continues]

I'll meet you there.

[rocket whooshes]

[Seo-hae grunts]

[ears ringing]

[panting]

-[man yells] -[Seo-hae shrieks]

[gunshot]

[gunfire]

[suspenseful music playing]

[grunts]

[gun clicks]

[groans]

-[both grunting] -[man groans]

[gunfire from a distance]

[metal squeaks]

[panting]

[explosion]

[Seo-hae coughing]

[gunfire]

[gun cocks]

[gunfire]

[man groans]

Clear!

-[thuds] -[sloshes]

[ominous music playing]

[somber music playing]

If it weren't for the war,

we wouldn't live like this.

[metal squeaking]

Go.

I said, go!

Let's go. Come on.

[flames crackling]

[door thuds]

-Is this it? -Not sure.

[water sloshing]

There's water.

[upbeat music playing]

What is this place?

A swimming pool.

Let's get out, we can use that door.

-We don't even have water to drink. -Let it go, come on.

[Sigma] So then I said, "Han Tae-sul!

Is it the girl or the world?"

[chuckles] That idiot just broke down into tears.

[Dong-gi whispers] Seo-hae. Gang Seo-hae!

-Hands up! Hands up! -Hands up!

-I said hands up! -Drop your guns!

-Drop your guns! -Drop them.

-[grunts] -[crowd clamoring]

[suspenseful music playing]

The girl.

-[electricity crackles] -[crowd screaming]

[clatters]

I used to hate crowds and traffic jams,

but in the future,

there are no cars. [coughing]

Bong-seon, are you all right?

[pants] Don't mind me.

I won't be here long.

I wasn't feeling well when I was crossing over.

After I woke up,

I learned the country no longer existed because of the war.

It happened so fast. [inhales deeply]

I harbored a lot of resentment at first.

I'm sorry.

[scoffs]

Later on, I found out

that you fought against Sigma,

and that you also kept me on life support.

[breathes deeply]

So I retraced your steps from your home to your…

office.

And then to…

your school.

That's where I found it.

Your message.

[coughing]

[Bong-seon shudders]

Sir.

Yeah?

Don't fight him.

You won't win.

I saw two graves. I saw your grave and that woman's.

I know.

Run away, sir.

This time, I won't die.

You know, there's no problem that I can't solve.

[scoffs]

[breathes deeply]

[Bong-seon] Sigma knows everything.

What will happen, when it'll happen, and where it'll take place.

-[coughing] -Ah… [murmurs]

-Bong-seon. -[Bong-seon gasps for air]

Do you really wanna win this?

Of course, I do.

Even if you may die?

What is this for?

[rattles]

Use it as a last resort.

Open it when you're out of options.

[breathes deeply]

How beautiful.

[Bong-seon] I wanted to see this again.

[quivering breaths]

Well, sir.

[somber music playing]

[sniffles]

Guess that I'll be on my way.

Bong-seon.

[buzzing]

Bong-seon, wait! Hey!

[Tae-sul gasps]

Bong-seon. Bong-seon.

Bong-seon! [coughs]

[sighs]

Oh, shit.

[whimpers]

-[rattles] -[Tae-sul sobs]

Jae-sun, Mom wants you to bring lots of gochujang and doenjang.

You said the market had that stuff.

[Go-eun] But they're overpriced.

[sighs] All right.

[Go-eun] Did you buy the eyebrow razor yet?

Oh, my bad. Not yet.

[Go-eun] Hey! I told you not to forget that.

They don't sell it here.

What do girls here use to shape their eyebrows?

Also, get me a bunch of lip tints and cushion compacts.

[clicks tongue] Okay.

You're coming, right?

Uh, I'm coming, yeah, of course.

When are you coming?

[Go-eun sighs] Are you staying there because of her?

No, there's another thing I have to take care of.

Hey, bro, you want some advice?

I don't need advice, come on.

I'm a girl, so you should listen. She's not into you.

I didn't ask you.

She's not interested in you, got it?

[Go-eun] You keep hitting on her,

so she doesn't know what to do and feels bad.

That's why she can't flat-out reject you.

You're making her uncomfortable, okay?

Oh, geez, will you just lay off?

[scoffs] Man, you're too blunt.

Stop bending over backward for her, idiot. Just get here as soon as you can.

Something's gonna happen in Korea.

What? How do you know that?

Because U.S. citizens were warned by the embassy to return to the States

because there might be a war.

[lock beeps]

-[door lock clicks] -Mom's here.

Mom's gonna freak out if she sees you.

[Go-eun] Book a flight right away and send me a screenshot.

If you don't, you're so dead.

CALL ENDED

[sighs deeply, murmurs]

[ominous music playing]

[machine whirring]

[thuds]

[crackling]

[woman] What's happening?

[man 1] What happened? Check the program.

-Try to reinstall it. -Can you check this?

-[man 2] Check for a short circuit, okay? -[man 3] Got it.

[panting]

This was working.

Do you know how many eyes we have on this right now?

[thuds]

Mr. Han got rid of all the data, sir, so we can't…

But you guys made this with him, so you can do it again!

[yells] There are 70 of you!

[pants]

Tae-sul did this all on his own.

He designed this all on his own!

When he was 15,

[yelps] with a pencil!

[pants]

What, huh? What!

Hey, if it's so urgent, why don't you do it yourself, then?

Why don't you stop yelling at everyone else and just do it yourself.

-Tae-sul. -Oh, right.

Guess you can't.

[breathing heavily in disbelief]

[suspenseful music playing]

What the hell are you doing here, huh?

-[guard] Sir. -[breathing furiously]

-[ominous music playing] -[sighs sharply]

[gasping, groaning]

[shuddering]

-That was scary. -It was.

[door creaks]

[piano playing]

It's been a while.

I came because you asked me to.

QUANTUM & TIME FAILS HIGH MOLECULAR TRANSPORT EXPERIMENT

Did you drink?

[breathes deeply]

I met Tae-sul for the first time when I was preparing for my postdoc.

I was in the lab one day and overheard some professors talking.

There was a student who was admitted early,

[scoffs]

and he passed his dissertation right after he got in.

You see,

for me, it was eight years.

[Eddy] Do you know what was the best decision I've ever made?

Working with Tae-sul when everyone else was too full of hatred and jealousy.

Believing in him when nobody else would take him…

seriously.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say.

I'm not trying to say anything. I'm just…

[sighs] I'm exhausted.

[sighs]

[clicks tongue]

Come to think of it, you and Tae-sul

almost got married.

[sighs]

I can't handle all this, Seo-jin.

[inhales deeply]

I just can't.

Do you really want to beat Tae-sul?

You asked me what was actually happening the last time that I saw you.

If you want to find out, let me take you somewhere.

Remember this, though,

if you come…

there's no going back.

[crickets chirping]

OCTOBER 28, 2020 AT THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, SNIPERS…

[Bong-seo] Well, sir.

Guess that I'll be on my way.

[Tae-sul] Bong-seon, wait! Hey!

[cell phone buzzing]

GANG DONG-GI

Hello?

[Dong-gi] I did some research into that man, Seo Won-ju.

-He's not even in the system anymore. -I see.

But our information division found out

that he applied for a name change to register a copyright.

Can you tell me what it was?

Seo Gil-bok. Seo Gil-bok.

GANG DONG-GI

[whispers] Seo Gil-bok?

SEOUL GANGBUK POLICE STATION

MOST TRUSTED POLICE FOR SAFEST GANGBUK

[siren wailing]

[police] God, he's here again. He practically lives here.

[ominous music playing]

[detective] The victim said you shouldn't expect any leniency.

STATEMENT SEO GIL-BOK

[detective] So you're an artist. You certainly have a way with words.

Your comments are so catchy.

Hey, think about how stressed out the victim must have been.

You posted malicious comments for seven years.

I've got more than 5,000 pages here, you jerk!

You heard about celebrities committing suicide?

[yells] Comments like these are dangerous!

I'm very sorry.

"I didn't like the way Han Tae-sul had looked at me."

What? Do you two know each other?

-Yeah. -Oh, yeah, yeah.

Even I know who Han Tae-sul is.

Everyone in the country does.

You got mental health issues?

Go see a doctor and get a diagnosis.

It could be considered a mitigating factor.

I'm sorry.

[sighs]

[detective] You've been posting hate comments about him since 2013.

I see you were released with a warning in 2016.

[paper rustles]

Anyway, this time, Han Tae-sul said no leniency whatsoever.

You'll be going to trial.

And possibly jail.

If you don't want that, submit a letter of apology.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Gil-bok] I apologize.

I have been continuously posting malicious comments

about Quantum & Time CEO, Mr. Han Tae-sul,

on the Internet since 2013.

I didn't stop even after I was caught and released with a warning in 2016.

I continued to do it because I couldn't hold back my anger

which was caused by my personal grudge.

I apologize for damaging Mr. Han's reputation

and hurting his feelings.

Mom!

[Gil-bok] I regret my actions.

I was jealous of Mr. Han for becoming so successful,

wealthy, and popular at such a young age.

That's why I posted malicious comments about him.

I regret my petty, childish actions.

I truly apologize.

Unlike Mr. Han, I did poorly in school.

I apologize for my incompetence.

I apologize to the judge,

as well as to my mother.

I should how to fix a falling airplane

and how to make a lot of money like Mr. Han does.

I'm sorry for not having the ability to do those things.

I'm truly sorry.

I'm sorry that I'm…

not as capable as Tae-sul is.

Those eyes…

Don't you dare look at me like that.

I'm sorry for being born in this world.

Things didn't go as planned.

I'll make sure that never happens again.

It's okay. We would have lost them anyway.

I'll always find a way to win, even if the process changes for us.

-Right? -[Hyun-seung faint chuckles]

Is the package supposed to arrive today?

Oh, I've always wanted to do this.

[laughs] It'll be fun, huh! What's the date today?

-29th of October. -Right.

To be honest,

I once believed I can end all of this misery

if I just killed myself.

So I looked up ways to do it.

Turns out hanging yourself is the cheapest.

[Sigma] Funny, right?

Rich people can buy guns or drugs and die so gracefully.

Whereas poor people have to be economical.

I was planning on going through with it.

Oh…

But I was still scared.

[Sigma] If I had come across one person,

just one person,

who told me not to do it,

I wouldn't have done it.

[calculator clicks]

[Sigma] In hindsight,

if anyone had tried to talk me out of it that day…

17,500 won.

[plastic rustles]

then maybe the world wouldn't have been destroyed.

[machine beeping]

How's it going?

It's strange.

How so? Everything seems fine.

The downloader is open, but no one has come in the past 48 hours.

[gasps] Maybe the uploader's closed.

Huh, here's one now. Where's it landing?

[beeps]

Over here.

[gasps] Our store.

-What? -[beeps]

[alarm blaring]

What's wrong?

I'm not sure.

[crackling]

What?

-That's it? -Yeah, I guess so.

[machine beeping]

-Wait. Don't open it. -Back off.

[ominous music playing]

If it's came from the future, I own it, kid.

[Mr. Park snickers]

[grunts]

[chuckles]

Gosh!

[both groans]

What, what is that?

Don't you dare look at me like that.

I'm very sorry.

I really am.

I'm truly sorry.

Gil-bok speaking.

[curator] Did you get my message?

Sorry, I've been really busy.

[curator] Your painting was sold.

What?

Which painting?

[curator] It's your self-portrait. That one.

Oh, but, didn't you say that the exhibition is now over?

[curator] Yes, but someone contacted us inquiring about purchasing your painting.

Hello?

Hello?

[sobs]

[curator] Hello?

Are you there?

The buyer is famous. I'm sure you know who he is.

[stutters]

Well, who is it?

[curator] You know the CEO of Quantum & Time, right?

It's Mr. Han Tae-sul.

Hello? Hello?

[sighs]

[knocks]

-[lock clicks] -[door creaks]

Han Tae-sul.

Seo Won-ju, hands up and get on your knees.

What?

[grunts]

-[thuds] -[groans]

Put your hands up, now!

What the hell?

Tae-sul, I'm sorry, Tae-sul!

I was out of my mind when I posted those mean comments about you.

-What's he talking about? -No idea.

Hey, Tae-sul. Tae-sul, Tae-sul, listen to me.

Tae-sul, I heard you bought my painting.

I bought it just to find you.

Let's finish this.

[ominous music playing]

Hey, wait! Just a second!

You might not be a problem now,

but what you're gonna do in the future is a problem.

Tae-sul, this is just a bad joke, right? Right?

I wrote a letter of apology. I'll never do it again. I'm really sorry.

[gun clicks]

What's wrong?

[gasps]

-I saw something. -What did you see?

Something's not right.

[suspenseful music playing]

Seo-hae, I'll do it.

-Tae-sul, please… -Be quiet.

JAAE HOSPITAL INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM

We're at Jaae. This is where you wanted to go?

-There's a meeting today. -What meeting?

Simply put, it's like a,

a gathering of the people who control this country as they wish.

Something like that.

-It's here? -Yeah.

I made it very clear.

I said that if you follow me, there's no going back.

Let's go in.

[steam hisses]

-What are you doing? Come on. -[gate clatters]

[gate thuds]

[all laughing]

That's what I'm saying. Prime Minister Kim!

Stop worrying about what other people think, it shows.

Okay. Yes, sir.

Look, we'll argue a little and reconcile at the end, all right?

They already know the plan, okay?

You know what, I should have taken your job

and made you the Prime Minister instead. [laughs]

Hey, it's the highest position in this country,

that's why you insisted upon taking it.

Yeah, but I'm powerless, I didn't know that.

[both laughing]

[Kim] Twenty-five million.

Thank you.

[men clamoring, laughing]

Isn't that the Prime Minister?

It is.

[Eddy] The Minister of Economy and Finance. The Minister of Land.

Wait, I thought Assemblyman Kim and Assemblyman Hong were on bad terms.

[indistinct chatter, laughs]

You know I can't do that.

[all chattering, laughing]

-Hey, drink up, drink up. -I know!

-Come on, you know me. -That's right.

[clicks tongue]

PACIFIC SAURY

The day the missile hits,

we must make sure no one's looking at the sky.

They'll be so busy fighting with each other

they won't know what killed them all.

It'll be like fireworks.

You see them going off, but no one will know who's shooting them.

Pow.

Pow-pow, pow.

I'll make sure everyone has front-row seats on the occasion.

You missed it last time because you were all in jail. [giggles]

So you have to see it this time.

-[laughs] -Right?

Missiles for what?

Does this mean, everything Tae-sul said was true?

[Eddy] Who's that guy?

Sigma.

[scoffs]

Uh, Dr. Kim, I was waiting for you.

[chuckles] I'm sorry I'm late.

-Is everyone here? -Mr. Park isn't here.

He's been fired.

Dr. Kim, I see that you brought a friend.

-And his name is? -His name is Eddy Kim.

Eddy Kim. Eddy Kim, right.

You're the one making the uploader.

[Sigma] I'm honored to meet you.

Give him a round of applause.

[applauding]

[chuckles]

140 JUNGGYESAN, SEOUL GANG SEO-HAE

Do we have to take this to her?

Can't we just tell her to come pick it up?

Because I need to see what's going to happen, you brat.

-[woman on radio] 24 degrees… -[clicks tongue]

So clueless.

[man on radio] With his visit to the U.S. next week fast approaching,

the president called a cabinet meeting

and asked each minister to make sure all government affairs…

Oh, shut the hell up.

Boring.

[clicks tongue] Hey, Bingbing.

Do you want to hear something really interesting?

You know how people say

that everyone that's employed by the government is a thief?

The Prime Minister, his deputy, and all the assemblymen.

Well… [laughs]

It's actually true.

[snickers]

All those guys came from the future, in the first group.

[Mr. Park] We were all behind bars, so we managed to stay healthy.

Those bastards, they were all in jail.

And I gotta tell you, they're all a bunch of ruthless thieves.

[scoffs]

What?

Well, you said they're thieves.

[murmurs] That's right, they all are.

[Sigma] Everyone.

There's something you need to see. Put it on.

[ominous music playing]

[screen beeps]

[panting]

-That's Tae-sul. -[Seo-jin] Stay seated.

[inhales] I warned you about this, there's no going back.

[gulps]

That's me.

[scoffs]

[snickers] I really thought I was gonna die in that moment.

[giggles]

[Sigma] Oh, boy.

[laughs, exhales deeply]

[whimpers] Tae-sul, why are you doing this to me? Why?

Be quiet.

[sobs]

You okay?

-[cell phone buzzing] -[grunts]

[whimpers]

[Sigma] That's enough, Han Tae-sul. All right?

[snickers]

[Sigma] Well, how have you been?

[sinister laughs]

[sighs deeply]

I can't believe how flustered I was back then.

I think you blabbered on about how you found me,

but I don't really remember how you did it.

[Sigma] Why are you so quiet?

Oh, no reason. It's nice to hear your voice.

I'm curious. How did you find where I was staying?

Your art.

I'm the one who bought your painting. That's how I found you.

Oh…

They gave me your address after I offered to make a quite large donation.

Oh…

Look, don't get the wrong idea.

To be honest, I don't like the painting.

-And the reviews were pretty bad. -[snickers]

Han Tae-sul, who are you talking to right now?

Be quiet.

I took your painting and showed it to various art critics I know.

I did this because I was curious about what they would say.

I have the responses saved on my phone. Do you want to hear them?

I'm sure you're curious, too, right?

APPRAISAL

I'll read them one by one.

"Frankly, this isn't very well-executed.

The quality of the canvas and the oil paint is top-notch,

but the brushstrokes look pretty clumsy.

Using high-quality supplies is important, but this artist needs more practice."

You need more practice.

Are you talking about me?

"The colors are too simple.

Most importantly, this painter doesn't know how to use light.

He's not a professional.

He's probably just a guy with an art degree." [scoffs]

[Sigma] Stop. Enough.

"The idea itself isn't bad, he painted with a great sense of detail,

However, it lacks imagination,

so it can't be taken seriously."

Here's another. "I find it kitschy."

-[Tae-sul] Well, that means it's not good. -[Sigma hisses]

"I'm not trying to belittle the painting, but…

this is the type of work you'd find in a hair salon."

"Looks like the painter worked really hard on it."

-That's the only nice thing that was said. -Stop it. I said… [quivers]

If I shoot you now, does the future you disappear?

What's gonna happen to you then, huh?

You can't shoot me, you're not able to do it.

That's why I'm here, alive.

Oh, really?

Come on, let's see what's gonna happen then.

[Sigma] I heard you met your brother.

Let me explain.

If your brother's hiding somewhere in his past,

then his body must be somewhere in the present, don't you think?

[gun cocks]

[Sigma] I'm sure my boys are taking good care of him.

If you spare me,

you can travel back to the past and get your brother.

[whispers] Just like how you got that girl.

What's wrong?

[Sigma] And there's another reason you shouldn't kill me today.

If you shoot me now, that girl will, poof, vanish as well. [chuckles]

You think you can do it?

[Sigma giggles]

[Sigma] What I'm asking is, are you sure you're ready?

Are you ready to part with her and never see her again?

Look, you still have lots of time. You need to say a proper goodbye.

Well,

why don't you kill me the next time I see you, huh?

Think about what you're doing, Tae-sul.

Don't listen to him.

Come on, it's our only chance.

[Sigma] If you shoot me now, you'll be left with nothing.

Everything and everyone you love will vanish.

[sniffs] So today,

just spare me, will you, huh?

What are you doing, huh?

[gun cocks]

[pants]

Seo-hae.

-Let's get out of here. -What?

Let's just go.

[door creaks]

[Mr. Park exclaims] Well, well, well.

[laughs] Look at this.

What are you doing here?

Well…

Unbelievable. This bastard looked sly even when he was young, huh.

[yells] What are you doing here?

What? Oh, to give you this.

Hey, go ahead, Bingbing.

We downloaded it an hour ago.

It came to our store.

Well, you know, I was just gonna ignore it.

But I figured that

-it would be important to you, so… -[squeals]

[Seo-hae pants]

What is it?

[ominous music playing]

What happened?

[Sigma snickers]

[Sigma laughing]

[Seo-hae gasps]

[rustles]

[quivering breaths]

-[gun cocks] -Seo-hae, no. No, Seo-hae.

-Move aside. -[Sigma quivers]

-Seo-hae. -I said move.

-Take it easy. -I said move.

Take it easy, come on.

What did you do to my dad?

What?

[yells] What did you do to my dad?

[Tae-sul] Seo-hae, put the gun down.

-[yelps] Put it down! -What did this bastard say to you?

What exactly did he say to you?

Today is not the day, we'll have another chance, okay?

No. We won't have another chance.

[Mr. Park yells] Hey, hey, you two, listen to me.

This is exactly what he want. You're playing right into his hands!

[groans]

Hey, drop your gun.

-[Seo-hae exhales] -[Tae-sul hisses]

-What are you doing? -[yelps] Put it down!

If that prick dies, I'll never see my family again.

-I don't care. -[yells] Stop it!

Just let me do this, okay?

Do you really think that he won't hurt Tae-san?

This bastard killed my father.

[whimpers]

[Seo-hae sniffles]

[Sigma] See? What did I tell you?

In just a few days from now,

the war will break out and kill 50 million people,

and yet everyone only cares about themselves.

This is why a fair society will never exist here.

-Isn't that right? -You're absolutely right.

-[man] You're absolutely right, sir. -[all applauding]

[Seo-hae quivering breaths]

-[gun clicks] -[Seo-hae whimpers]

Seo-hae, listen to me.

Come on.

Not today.

[Tae-sul] Please.

Seo-hae.

Please.

Was it today?

Come on.

Please, Seo-hae.

[grunts]

[gun cocks]

["Stay (tempus)" by GSoul playing]

[Tae-sul] Seo-hae, where are you?

[Sigma] I didn't do anything.

She made the choice on her own, to leave you.

[Tae-sul] Now, I remember.

I said let go of me!

[Sigma] She will die because of Han Tae-sul.

[Seo-hae] If you go by yourself, you'll die.

[Tae-sul] Everything that happens from now on, is something I planned, so…

Good luck fighting what's coming to you, asshole.

Please don't go.

[Tae-sul] I'm sorry, Seo-hae.
