"Everything becomes clear
once the right time comes."
"Time is the father of truth."
(Episode 10)
Professor.
Professor Yoon time travelled,
didn't she?
She'll be in danger
if she doesn't take this.
She'll wake up soon. Stay by her side.
Why are you helping Professor Yoon?
For the same reason you are.
I was with your mother in 1992.
We were going to leave
after our job was done,
but your mother remained here.
Why?
For you.
What do you mean?
She later found out
that she was pregnant.
That's why she stayed,
to give birth to you.
She gave up everything she has
for you.
So,
stay out of trouble
for your mother.
Who are you to say that?
I was her friend.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know your mother died,
or that she had a son.
I'm sorry I couldn't protect you.
But I'll make sure
to catch the suspect.
Don't you speak nonsense.
You're one of the suspects.
You people killed my mother.
If I get arrested,
our staff will come here.
That'll put Professor Yoon in danger.
It's all my fault.
I should've looked
into Park Jin Gyeom more.
Si Young knew everything all along.
No way.
Tae Yi and Si Young were friends.
Si Young said
that she met Tae Yi in 2011.
But Tae Yi died a year before that,
in 2010.
She's surely hiding something.
Hey,
can you give me a break from work
for a few days?
I'm going to look into Si Young more.
What if it's her?
What? You think I might take revenge
on her or something?
What right do I have to do that?
I abandoned Tae Yi alone
when she was pregnant.
Had I wanted to,
I could've easily gone back
to get her.
But I didn't.
I was mad at Tae Yi.
I couldn't forgive her
for running away without a word.
I was so mad about that
that I didn't go back for her.
So, what right do I have
to take revenge?
I left her to raise a child
in an unfamiliar world alone
and let her die.
I don't deserve to take revenge.
I'm just going to find the suspect.
I'm just going to find
who killed Tae Yi,
and hand whoever it is over
to Park Jin Gyeom.
Don't worry about Park Jin Gyeom.
As long as I'm here,
he won't be in danger.
And let me know if you need anything.
If you want to bring him to Alice,
I'll find a way.
Wait,
does Park Jin Gyeom know who you are?
I'll find whoever killed Tae Yi first.
That's the least I can do
before I can bring myself
to tell him who I am.
Detective Park is not dead.
So there's no one to catch.
He's as tough as nails.
He wouldn't die so easily.
I can change everything.
I can change it.
When did you get here?
Where's the professor?
She went out to meet someone.
The person you have reached
Did she say where she was going?
Was it her birthday yesterday?
Don't worry about it.
It's just a coincidence.
At first, when Eun Soo
talked about a time machine,
I thought it was understandable
since she was a kid.
When I met a man
who insisted he was five years old,
I told myself there are
many crazy people in the world.
When a man from a photo from 1992
appeared before me
without having aged at all,
I assumed they just looked alike.
Even when you knew in advance
about the Schrödinger incident,
I tried to tell myself
that you simply found clues first.
But this, I really can't understand.
The woman who looks exactly
like your mother
has the same birthday too.
Don't worry. I'm not asking you.
I know you won't tell me anyway.
I'll find out myself
just what is going on right now.
Everyone thinks Director Seok is dead.
I guess you don't.
Why are you looking
into the director's disappearance?
Will you write an article?
Yes.
So please work with me.
What did you mean
by what you said a few days ago?
That you and I will walk the
Camino de Santiago together next year.
You were annoying me,
so I was just trying to shut you up.
They call them parallel universes.
A world in another dimension
where another version of me exists.
I don't know how our relationship
changes next year,
but I don't think
I will ever take a trip with you.
If you and I took a trip together
notwithstanding that,
that must be another version of me,
and not me.
You went into the future
in another dimension, didn't you?
And you and I who exist there
went to the Camino de Santiago.
Why are you suddenly asking me that?
Is it a reporter's curiosity?
No. I'm asking because of Jin Gyeom.
Have you ever felt
like you've known him from a while ago?
What do you mean?
Didn't he tell you?
That you look like his mother.
Make your point.
Whoever you may be,
whatever you may mean to him,
I wish you'd stay away from him.
I'm saying this
not as the girl who likes him,
but as his friend.
Because I'm so worried about him.
He has never once
been happy in his entire life.
I know he can't feel emotions.
Do you know that it makes him
blame himself and struggle too?
He changed a lot
compared to 10 years ago.
That's why he knows now
just what he did to his mother
before she passed away.
He realized
how tough a life his mother had led
because of him.
But if you stay with him,
he'll keep thinking of his mother.
And he'll put himself in danger
if it's for you.
So I'm sorry,
but I wish you would stay away
from Jin Gyeom now.
Detective Park
has a good friend.
I don't know whether or not
it was a parallel universe,
but we may really be able to go
on the Camino de Santiago together.
I'm sorry too,
but I have to stay with Detective Park.
Because
he needs me right now.
It breaks my heart
that he's reminded
of his mother when he looks at me,
but
I have to do anything and everything
that I can.
(Jang Dong Shik's Murder Suspects)
I went to the orphanage
to find Dr. Jang Dong Shik's wife.
You knew
that Professor Yoon Tae Yi
was Dr. Jang's daughter, didn't you?
Yes.
Why didn't you tell me?
A heads up would've been nice.
She doesn't know yet either,
so I couldn't.
Did you find the woman
who dropped her off at the orphanage?
Was it her mother?
No. Dr. Jang's wife
Professor Yoon's
mother did in fact pass away.
I even checked her grave.
Seeing as the orphanage document
states she was dropped off by her mom,
the woman
must have been impersonating her mom.
Wasn't this man
his only accomplice?
There was a woman
if I remember correctly.
Shouldn't we tell Professor Yoon
about her father's death?
I'll tell her myself
when the time is right.
Did you go somewhere?
I met with a friend.
A good friend.
What is that?
Pork belly.
We said we'd have pork belly
on my birthday, but couldn't.
And some soju.
Why are you eating it burnt?
It's so bad for you.
Here.
I'll feed myself.
Say, "Ah."
I'm fine. You eat it.
Come on. My arm's getting tired.
"Ah."
Thank you.
I'll make you breakfast
starting tomorrow,
so eat before you go.
Detectives don't get to eat on time.
You should at least
have a good breakfast.
That's right.
Take this to the station
and take them there.
It's a probiotic.
You eat out all the time.
It's hard to watch your weight.
Try it.
I ordered yours while ordering mine.
It's good for you, so take some.
Professor.
Did
something happen?
No.
Detective.
Do you have a bucket list
for before you die
Things you want to do
before you get too old?
I haven't really thought about it.
Why do you ask?
I'm just curious.
Everyone has things
they really want to try.
I do not.
Then I'll pick some
from people's bucket lists,
so pick one.
(Travel around the world alone)
"Travel around the world alone."
"Master a foreign language."
"Love passionately."
"Travel all around Korea."
"Read 100 books in a year."
Do you want to do any of them?
Read 100 books in a year.
Except that.
Master a foreign language.
Forget it. Just eat.
To be honest,
there is so much that I haven't done,
that it's difficult to choose just one.
But
Do you not like the necklace?
That's not it.
I'm saving it for a special occasion.
Have you been to an amusement park?
I'm not asking because I want to go.
You know how to laugh.
Why don't you laugh a little?
Isn't this so fun?
Are you feeling happy?
One more ride?
No. Never again.
My gosh.
Thanks.
Excuse me.
Could you take a picture of us?
Sure.
Thank you.
Here we go.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
Why don't we take a picture together?
Do you take pictures too?
I want to keep it as a souvenir.
Sure, let's do it.
Here we go.
Let me have a look.
I'll delete it if it's not good.
What's wrong?
This picture looks terrible.
Do you want to take another one?
No.
Let's not take any pictures from now on.
(Delete 1 photo)
Let's go.
Something happened, right?
Tell me.
What did you see
when you travelled through time?
Do you have to catch the person
who killed your mother?
I know I shouldn't say this,
but can't you just give up?
With time, some people forget
what happened in the past
or just let it go.
Can't you do that?
You can, right?
Will something happen to me?
You must be tired. Let's go home.
While trying to catch
the person who killed your mother,
you'll die.
By any chance, do you know
- who killed my mother?
- What does that matter?
You'll die.
You asked about my bucket list, right?
I've always wanted
only one thing.
Catching the person
who killed my mother.
Tell me who it is.
Detective Park was
after the last page
of "The Book of Prophecy".
He thought
it would help him stop time travel
and find out who killed his mother.
But precisely because of that,
he was killed.
By the person who killed his mother.
Wait for me.
You can go home.
Detective.
Detective!
Park Jin Gyeom!
Take a look around.
Don't you see the people who love you?
Why do you not care
about the people who worry about you?
Park Jin Gyeom!
- "The Book of Prophecy"?
- I don't know exactly what it is.
But it seems
it'll tell me who I'm after.
I'll look for Mr. Seok Oh Won first.
He had the book for a while.
I'm sure he's already dead.
Otherwise, how could he
disappear into thin air?
If Professor Yoon is right,
he's still alive.
(You brought this upon yourself.)
This was sent the morning before
Tae Yi was killed in 2010.
It's our number, isn't it?
Who was using that number in 2010?
You know, don't you?
Ms. Oh was using it.
But it could have been anyone
in the organization.
This doesn't prove she killed Tae Yi.
I know.
I just need to find out
if it was in 2011 that
she went to Lee Se Hoon.
(Foster Morality
and Live Wholesome Lives)
(Seongsin Inn)
(Director Seok Oh Won)
Hello.
It's Lee Se Hoon. Do you remember me?
Do you want to find out
why your mom was killed?
Protect me,
and I'll tell you everything.
I even know who killed her.
Where are you?
Hello?
It's been located. It's an inn.
(Seongsin Inn)
Lee Se Hoon has been murdered.
Check the CCTV footage.
What are you trying to hide
by killing him?
You got the wrong idea.
I'll explain later.
It's you.
You did it.
No.
I was tracking down the person
who killed your mother.
Your mother and I
Why did you kill my mom?
Check all the surveillance cameras
near the motel.
He got killed right before I got there.
I checked all the cameras,
and all the footage was deleted.
Where's Si Young right now?
There are 15 clients
that we're looking over.
I'll have the final list ready
by next week.
Everyone, get out.
Get out!
Were you the one
who killed Lee Se Hoon?
What are you talking about?
You made all of this happen.
On the day Tae Yi died in 2010,
you texted her.
Tell me what happened on that day.
You think I killed Tae Yi?
Why did you lie, then?
Why did you lie?
When I went to see Lee Se Hoon,
I found out that Tae Yi
had "The Book of Prophecy".
So, I went to see her myself
in an attempt to sort it out myself.
But Tae Yi
never showed it to me.
Yes, I was the one who sent that text.
I thought she deserved to know
that what she was doing is
dangerous and selfish.
So
So, you killed her?
No, I didn't kill her,
though I wished that she died.
Why? Why would you?
Because of you, Min Hyuk.
I was going to tell you
that Tae Yi died and
that Tae Yi from the past is in danger,
but I couldn't.
No, I didn't want to,
knowing that you'd be
so affected like this.
I knew you'd be going crazy,
trying to catch the murderer!
Don't you dare make excuses.
Do you know what the worst part is?
Tae Yi has finally disappeared,
but another Tae Yi is back.
I finally thought
that I was getting closer to you,
but you're only looking
at Yoon Tae Yi again!
This is the footage of Lee Se Hoon
since his release.
It's your choice to believe
what you see or not.
You saw the suspect here yourself?
Yes,
I saw him with my own eyes.
That's weird.
- What is?
- He died about two hours ago.
If he's really the suspect,
then why did he stay here
after killing Lee Se Hoon
two hours after?
He was the suspect.
I was looking for the man
that killed your mother.
There are people outside,
waiting to check on the site.
Yes, tell them to come in
and check the site.
Yes, sir.
- What?
- Nothing.
I'm just thinking back
to when we first met.
You were so handsome.
You had a lot of hair, too.
Do you remember
going to the Namsan Mountain
on our first date?
I don't even remember yesterday.
How could I remember that?
Hey! I told you
not to scratch your neck while eating.
All right.
You know my friend Soo Jin, right?
I know.
Her husband runs a big company.
Her husband has cancer.
Stage-three cancer.
When I heard that,
I realized
that happiness isn't anything grand.
I realized
that living as long as we can,
eating sundae together
is the best happiness I can have.
As long as we can?
Honey,
you're very ambitious.
That means you have to stay healthy.
(Hope Orphanage
Child Profile Name: Yoon Tae Yi)
Why are you asking for that?
When I first came here,
did I bring anything?
- Like what?
- A book,
or even just a piece of paper.
You certainly read a lot,
but you didn't bring a book,
nor any paper.
You said that the person
who asked about my father
also asked
if I brought a book with me.
Yes, even that strange man
asked about some book.
Did you not ask him
what book he's talking about?
Is something going on?
Some buff detective
came in earlier as well.
Some buff detective?
This one?
Yes, that one.
Don't mind him, then.
I'm sure he was here to investigate
the person who asked about my dad.
It was him.
The one who came before
and asked about your biological dad.
Does Yoon Tae Yi
remember her biological father
who passed away in 1992?
You must have seen wrong.
He's a detective captain.
Did I?
Maybe it wasn't him after all.
I'm confused.
I won't take it
unless there's money in here.
Take it back.
I'm sick of this life now, that's why.
No. You were born to be a cop.
And people like us
can't live quietly at home.
Can't I even quit as I want?
I'm not coming in starting next month,
just so you know.
Why are you doing this?
Did something happen?
Nothing happened. I just
I want to sleep peacefully,
eat well,
and receive love from my wife.
That's how I want to live.
(Seoul Nambu Police Station)
Hello.
Remember me?
May we speak for a few minutes?
Thank you.
I'm on duty,
so please make it quick.
How did you end up
getting close to Detective Park?
Why do you want to know that?
Because I heard
you were like family to him.
Didn't Jin Gyeom tell you?
You know
he doesn't talk about things like that.
I heard he lived with you.
I wonder
how someone like him
ended up living with you.
When he was in high school,
he was framed because of me.
I felt bad about that.
- That's very odd.
- What is?
You took care of a 19-year-old boy
with an unusual personality
like your son and brought him home
just because of that?
Please don't get the wrong idea.
I was adopted as well,
so I'm interested in families
that aren't blood-related.
I heard you don't have kids, right?
Why didn't you adopt?
Adoption isn't for everyone.
Then why did you go to Hope Orphanage?
You went there.
I did not.
I assume you're finished, so
- Sorry, sir.
- Sorry, sir.
I've seen it before.
What do you mean?
The scar behind Captain Ko's ear.
I've seen it before. I'm sure of it.
What scar did you see, and where?
I'm not getting you.
I know I've seen it before,
but I can't remember.
Remember the man who asked about me
at the orphanage?
I think
it was Captain Ko.
That can't be.
Even if it was,
it was probably about the case.
It wasn't about the case.
He asked about my father.
I think you should go home
and get some rest.
I'll take you.
It's okay.
I'll sleep at my parents' place tonight.
We found a capsule in his stomach.
It was probably
for some type of poison,
but I'm not sure what.
This is odd.
Remember the guy
whose body disappeared?
That Ju Hae Min, was it?
The Schrödinger killer.
Yes.
He had the same scar.
(Female, Unidentified)
(Unknown organization)
Gosh.
All the surveillance videos
were deleted.
I got the dash cam videos
from all the cars in the area.
We'll have to stay up all night
to watch them all.
I'll do it.
(Seongsin Inn)
Continue.
He visited Lee Se Hoon in 2010,
and I found evidence
of illegal travel between dimensions.
In 2010?
Yes.
It's suspicious that he's in charge
of Tae Yi's case too.
Does that mean he approached
Park Jin Gyeom intentionally?
I think so, but I don't know why.
I don't think we can handle this
on our own anymore.
We need to report to headquarters.
Please
give me a little time.
Things will get more complicated
if headquarters finds out.
Let me resolve it.
I can't give you a lot of time.
Thanks.
- It's hot.
- Hold on.
How is it?
- It's delicious.
- Is it?
Hold on.
My gosh.
What are you doing here so late?
Thank you for preparing
my mother's memorial table.
Sure, but this wasn't necessary.
Of course, I should do it.
You're hurting my feelings.
There's so much in here.
I know you're happy.
If you were going to bring food,
you should've brought hanwoo beef,
not a fruit basket.
Seriously. You need to feed Jin Gyeom
some nutritious foods.
Look how haggard he looks.
If he works you too hard,
tell me, okay?
Stay for dinner.
This is so heavy.
That shows
how unaffectionate you are normally.
Look how giddy she is
about a fruit basket.
Come in. Stay for dinner.
I need to talk to you outside.
This is nice.
What are you looking at?
It's all so new to me.
What's so new about it?
All bathhouses are the same.
It's my first time.
Do you not like to wash?
Well I had no reason to come
or anyone to come with.
You dirty punk.
Come to the bathhouse with me
once a week from now on.
I'll do it myself.
I want to do it for you, that's why.
Jin Gyeom.
It'll be hard
being a detective.
If things get hard,
tell me.
Don't worry.
How can I not worry?
They say kids never
tell their parents
how they really feel.
Sure. What's there to life?
You just find someone
to whom you can expose your back,
and fill each other's voids.
You've seen my back now.
- Come here.
- Dad!
Dad!
What?
Hey.
Try calling me Dad.
Fine, forget it.
That hurts.
What did you say?
It hurts.
What is it?
Can you pour me one?
But you don't drink.
I started drinking a little recently.
With Do Yeon?
Anyway, it's good
to drink a little now and then.
Now I'm relieved.
You're getting better and better.
When I first met you,
you were almost not human.
Is this about the Lee Se Hoon case?
Did you find anything?
Jin Gyeom.
I
No.
I haven't found any clues yet.
I think I really am a lot better now.
And I have you to thank for that.
So please
stay by my side like this
for a long time.
Do you have any plans for the weekend?
Why?
Do you remember In Sook's son?
The tall and handsome one.
What? He's not handsome at all.
What about him anyway?
Is he sick or something?
He recently got a promotion.
So? You want me to congratulate him?
You're doing this on purpose, right?
Anyway,
free up some time this weekend.
I can't. I'm busy.
I'm worried you'll get old
without dating anyone.
Don't worry about that.
I have Jin Gyeom.
Can't you find someone more ordinary?
What's so wrong with him?
He's perfect. He's not interested
in girls, so he'll never cheat on me.
Hey, I'm even more worried now.
(Mr. Ko)
Mr. Ko!
You called a chauffeur, right?
Is he your son?
It's so nice to see a father and son
drinking together.
I called her. You're drunk.
Stop with that joke already.
I never know how to respond.
Gosh, you're so boring.
Did something happen? You never drink.
Nothing happened.
Give me the keys.
Get in, Mr. Ko.
I'll give you a ride home.
No. I live close by.
Drive safe.
- Good night.
- I will.
- See you.
- See you.
Anyway, what made you want to drink
with Mr. Ko all of a sudden?
Are you sure nothing happened?
Just because.
I just felt like it.
I'm glad you did.
Mr. Ko must have been very happy.
Hello, sir.
Got it.
What are you doing here?
I'm looking for Yoon Tae Yi.
She's been here, right?
Why are you looking for her?
I need to kill her.
Did you drink a lot?
No.
Then are you up
for another drink with me?
Sure.
Really?
Yes.
Where should we go?
Hello, Sergeant Kim.
I think I've located Mr. Seok.
Okay. I'll be right there.
Moving on.
Lee Se Hoon, who served
29 years in prison for murder,
was found murdered at an inn
right after being released.
By the time
the police arrived at the scene,
he was already dead
after coughing up blood in his room.
The police suspect
that he was poisoned.
Kang Hyun Jin reports.
(Seongsin Inn)
That was him.
The one who came before
and asked about your biological dad.
How did you find him?
Someone reported a rented car
discarded at an abandoned
amusement park in Paju.
And the contract
is in the name of Ju Hae Min.
But Ju Hae Min, who is locked up,
says he never rented a car.
My guess is
that the dead time traveller did.
Anyway,
we found Seok Oh Won's DNA in the car.
Who's at the scene now?
(Jin Gyeom)
The person you have reached
is not available.
(Mr. Ko)
Yes, I just arrived.
I'll take care of Seok Oh Won.
You're here.
Is this the car?
According to residents in the area,
the car was here for a whole week.
This amusement park
has been closed for a long time,
so there isn't much foot traffic
around the area.
Seok Oh Won should be around.
Let's divide and search.
- Let's go.
- Okay.
Since it's a big park,
let's divide and search.
I'll take this side.
You can take that side.
All right.
(Thank you to Announcer Joo Si Eun
for making a special appearance.)
(Alice)
I'm sorry, Jin Gyeom.
This is the only way for me
to save my wife.
Mr. Ko
No!
