Then...

who's the one that really did it,

and framed Park Sun-woo?

FEBRUARY, 2000

The CEO of Inju Cement, Jang Sung-chul.

His son, Jang Tae-jin?

Yes.

He's the one.

I don't think Sun-woo's coming today.

You should go. I have a guest.

OK.

So she's the one Park Sun-woo's tutoring?

What?

Yeah.

You think you got what it takes?

College isn't for everybody.

Park Sun-woo really has a knack\Nfor wasting his time.

You really studying?

Doing nothing weird?

Who the hell do you think you are?

Anyone can get good grades\Nwith that much tutoring.

What?

Sun-woo gets no tutoring\Nbut still gets good grades.

Sun-woo will always be better than you.

Because you're nothing\Nwithout your rich dad.

What am I gonna do?

Inju Cement CEO's son, Jang Tae-jin.

It was him?

Yes.

Jang Tae-jin.

It was him.

That was it.

That was all you had to say.

And you just...

let my brother go to jail?

Hae-young, stop.

You know what happened to my brother?

The real criminal's still out there\Nenjoying his freaking life,

and my brother, who was just a kid,

died even though he didn't do anything.

Sun-woo...

Sun-woo's dead?

Yeah.

He killed himself.

Fifteen years ago.

It can't be.

No.

That can't be true.

After a while...

I pulled myself together\Nand went to visit Sun-woo.

Hye-seung.

I really meant what I said then.

It's not your fault.

I know there are people\Nwho made you do what you did.

So...

forget everything and start over.

It's OK.

I'm going to start over too.

I'm never going to quit on my life.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

That was the last time I saw him.

He didn't sound like\Nhe would commit suicide.

He was smiling when he was talking to me.

He gave me courage to go on.

I tried to move on.

Telling myself it's all behind me.

I kept on living my life like that.

At least you got to live yours.

But not my brother.

Right after he got out,

he cut his wrist with his own hand.

It can't be.

It's not too late.

Help us prove his innocence.

We need your statement to do that.

No, I can't.

I have a husband and a daughter.

I already lost a family,

and I can't afford to lose one again.

It's not your fault.

-You're the victim.\N-Back then...

you know what hurt me the most?

People pointing the finger at me\Neven though it wasn't my fault.

Calling me a slut or a whore.

Fifteen years have passed,\Nand it's still the same.

-I can't go through it again.\N-Then what about my brother?

-Hae-young--\N-Ms. Kang.

-Ms. Kang!\N-I'm sorry.

That's enough!

The statute of limitation\Nhas already expired.

Even with her statement...

there's nothing we can do.

You know who Jang Tae-jin is?

His father owns Inju Cement\Nand his uncle is a congressman.

He still lives like a king in Inju.

While my brother died\Nwhen he was a teenage boy.

He got framed and died in misery.

But the guy who really did it...

What is this?

What kind of bullshit is this?

Hae-young!

FEBRUARY 15TH, 2000

Hey, what the hell?

Hey, nice ride.

Looks like you really got on the fast lane

after you wrapped up the Inju case, huh?

What are you doing here, "Chief"?

Heard you've been quite busy\Npainting a target on my back.

You've got friends\Nin the Internal Affairs too?

You'd piled up quite amount of dirty cash.

So I tipped the Internal Affairs off.

Your friends upstairs\Nwon't be able to get you out of this one.

-Watch your mouth!\N-I'm not done yet.

I'm sure you know Jang Tae-jin.

Inju Cement CEO's son\Nand congressman Jang's nephew.

He's the perp of the Inju case.

We already got the perp.\NIt was Park Sun-woo, remember?

Right.

That's what everyone said.

The whole town kept their mouth shut,\Njust like you said they would.

But there's one person\Nwho can tell the truth.

It's you, Kim Bum-joo.

I'm going to make you spill\Nevery single dirty shit you did.

Including this Inju case.

Alright.

Let's see who bites the dust first.

This is Detective Kim,\NSeoul Police Department.

I'm calling about the document\NI sent over.

Where have you been all day?

-Nowhere.\N-Come on, tell me.

You don't have time to sit down.\NWe have to go.

Captain's sending us\Nto Yeonwoo-dong for a stakeout.

But that's not my area.

Hey.

You're a cop, aren't you?

Isn't doing stakeouts part of your job?

He's right, that's our job.

Let's go.

Go with her. We're short-handed.

Fine.

Thank you.

Don't we already have a team out there?

-Soo-hyun's worried.\N-About Jae-han?

He's been acting weird since Inju.

Doesn't laugh, doesn't talk...

We should keep him in the fields\Nso he wouldn't get any ideas.

What's he been up to these days?

He looks really worn out.

What kind of bullshit is this?

After everything I've put up with?

Just let it go.

We still have a chance.

We can't do anything about the present,

But we can still change the past.

If we get him in the past,

we might be able to save my brother\Nand Detective Lee.

Park Hae-young!

The past can still be changed.

There might be a way then.

If we get him in the past,

we might be able to save my brother\Nand Detective Lee.

Come on...

Please...

Detective Lee Jae-han.

Detective Lee.

Detective Lee Jae-han.

Detective Lee Jae-han, please come in!

Lee Jae-han?

Detective Lee!

Hey!

Hey!

Detective, can you hear me? Detective--

Did you find him?

You're supposed to keep watching,\Nnot doze off with me.

Sorry, Detective.\NThe walkie came on all of a sudden so...

-What walkie?\N-That old one of yours.

I swear I heard it come on.\NWith lights and all.

You must've been hearing things.

Stop saying nonsense and check that way.

Wait.

How...

How is this...

WELCOME TO INJU CITY

Damn it, I flopped again.

-Don't push me, man.\N-That case in 1999.

You knew Jang Tae-jin\Ndid it all along, right?

You knew my brother was framed,

but you just watched and did nothing.

Am I wrong?

So?

So what?

That was 17 years ago.

What are you guys even trying pull?

"Guys"?

Someone else came to see you?

That old cop.

Was his name Ahn Chi-soo?

They teach you mind-reading\Nin the academy these days?

What did he say?

What did he say?

He asked me...

to testify that Sun-woo had the muffler.

What?

I heard you told Park Sun-woo\Nabout the red muffler.

The evidence to prove\Nthat Jang Tae-jin's guilty.

What about it?

And Park Sun-woo got the muffler from you.

Where are you going with this?

It doesn't matter, does it?\NThe case is long overdue.

What are you bothering me for?

This isn't about that case.

I'm not here for the Inju case.

You mean he was onto something else?

That's all he said.Then he left.

Do you know where he was headed?

INJU POLICE DEPARTMENT

INVESTIGATION SUPPORT TEAM

This is the case file Cpt. Ahn\Nrequested a few days ago.

PARK SUN-WOO DEATH CASE REPORT

Excuse me.

Are you sure he requested this case file?

Not the Inju rape case file?

Yes, positive.

Ahn Chi-soo requested Park Sun-woo\Ndeath case file before he died.

Park Hae-young's brother's suicide case\Nfrom 15 years ago.

Remember that walkie\Nhe always carried around?

You put that yellow smiley sticker, right?

Did you guys happen to retrieve a walkie?

It has a yellow smiley sticker on it.

This is Jae-han's walkie.

That's strange.

I swear I heard it come on.

Hey.

Why are you touching my stuff?

Are you sure this is broken?

Does this look not broken to you?

Then why do you always\Ncarry it around with you?

What?

I heard that's your lucky charm.\NWhy is that?

Because it's none of your business.\NStop being so nosy.

Hi, I'm Cha Soo-hyun, Mobile Squad.

You investigated the rape case\Nfrom two days ago, right?

Yes.

It turned out that the boyfriend did it.

It has nothing to do\Nwith the Yeonwoo-dong case.

-Alright, thank you.\N-Hey.

If you're in the Mobile Squad,\Nyou must know Lee Jae-han?

-You know him?\N-Of course.

I used to work with him\Nfor a couple of years.

You really don't have to.

You helped me on the case.\NIt's the least I can do.

Anyway...

If you used to work with Detective Lee,

you must know him really well.

Yeah, you can say that.

Then do you know about that walkie?

Walkie? What walkie?

You mean the one he always carries around?

I don't understand why he does.\NIt doesn't even work.

From what I heard,

it has something to do\Nwith his first love.

His first love?

Yeah, somehow she passed away,

and he keeps it around with him\Nsince then.

He's really soft-hearted for a big guy.

He still doesn't go to the movies?

She left movie tickets behind\Nbefore she died.

Man, this is good.

What are you doing for Christmas?

I got free movie tickets.

You can go with a friend if you want to.

I don't watch movies.

What?

I don't watch movies.

That was months ago.

Listen, I'm just doing\Nwhat I'm told to do.

I understand,\Nbut couldn't you have told me earlier?

This is crazy.

Fine, I'll pass it on.\NLet me get back to you.

Alright.

What's wrong?

Remember that document I sent them?\NThey're calling me for it after months.

Hey, hands off. The noodle's mine today.

Give me a break. I got a hangover.

This one's for you, Soo-hyun.

Come on, eat.

What the... Hey!

-Hey!\N-Hey!

What are you doing?\NWhat's wrong with you?

Have you lost your mind?

I'll clean it up.

What's going on?

I really should get a prostate exam.

Maybe you should start riding bikes.

Hey, what?

Is the women's restroom closed\Nor something?

Goddamn it.

Hey!

What happened? Are you OK?

Sorry, sir. I'll put it back in.

Hey, just leave it.

Come on, sit down.

Let me see.

-Looks like it's sprained.\N-I'm fine.

What's going on?

You can't work in the fields like this.

You'd better straighten up.

Are you still not over her?

What?

Your first love.

I heard she passed away.

Sounds like you're alright after all.

Put some ice on it, just in case.

Excuse me.

You worked on this case, right?

Park Sun-woo's suicide in 2000?

And who are you?

I'm Park Sun-woo's brother.

I'm sorry that this is all\Nout of the blue,

but this is important for me.

Didn't you notice anything strange\Nduring the investigation?

Perhaps anything suspicious?

It was just like what it says here.

You were there, weren't you?

I think you know more than I do.

Sun-woo!

Brother, wake up!

Sun-woo!

Brother...

We have no pulse.

Commence CPR.

Excuse me,\Nmy son should be here somewhere.

Hae-young.

Mom, Sun-woo's...

He's what?

Sun-woo.

Sun-woo...

I'm sorry.

The room was clean, no signs of struggle.

Sun-woo!

Sun-woo!

Your son had depression.

It matches his fellow inmates' statements.

We've concluded that it was suicide, but…

if you want...

we can do autopsy.

No.

I don't want to see any more cuts\Non his body.

Park Hae-young.

Dad.

I told you not to come here ever.

But Sun-woo is...

Mom...

I'm not here for the Inju case.

This is the file he requested\Na few days ago.

If you think you can handle the truth,

come and meet me in Inju.

Cpt. Ahn...

What was he after?

OCCURRENCE DATE:\NFEBRUARY 18TH, 2000

VICTIM: PARK SUN-WOO

FEBRUARY 17TH, 2000

INJU JUVENILE PENITENTIARY

-Mom...\N-Just be quiet and let's go.

I thought you might be hungry.

Put the dishes in the sink\Nafter you're done.

I have to go to work.

What about Hae-young?

Where is he?

Don't even think about seeing him again.

Hey, Dong-jin!

I'm not here to pick a fight.

I heard it when I was\Nin the juvenile jail.

I know who did it.

Just stay put.

I'll take care of everything.

Just tell me where it is.

Where what is?

The red muffler.

Where is it?

See you, Father.

What is he doing here?

You know him?

He's here to fix his watch.

You mean this is your father?

Where are my manners?

I'm Kim Bum-joo.\NJae-han's former teammate.

I had no idea you used to work\Nwith my son.

Let me get you a cup of coffee.

-Just a moment--\N-Father, forget it.

-Come out.\N-Oh, come on.

It's rude to decline\Nyour father's generosity.

Out.

What is this?

You came here all the way from Seoul,\Nyou must have something to say.

Go ahead.

You should take care of him better,

being his only son.

His shop is struggling to stay afloat.

He worked all his life for it,

and he might end up losing it.

Don't you think\Nyou should do something about it?

Someone did his homework.

You do this a lot?

Finding other people's weak spots?

But seeing that you're here,\Nyou seem desperate.

What?

The congressman wouldn't keep\Nthe Internal Affairs away from you?

Don't act like you're better than me.

Do you think I don't know\Nwhat's right and wrong?

But doing the right thing\Ndoesn't change anything.

The world stays the same.

Join me.

Take the chance while you can.

You're still young, Jae-han.

Do it for yourself and your father.

That first time,

that's where all it begins.

Then without even knowing it,\NI would end up like you.

Like an old hound.

Cast out and left out to dry,\Nnothing but an expendable.

I don't want that.

Even if it means\NI'd have to struggle all my life,

I'd rather...

do the right thing.

I really need to talk to him.

I'm afraid Congressman Jang\Ncan't take your call right now.

-Then--\N-Have a nice day.

Hello?

Shit.

What's he doing here? Get him out!

I just need a moment!

Get out of my way!

Congressman Jang.

I'd lay down my life for you,\Nas I always have!

-Please, help me on this.\N-Get him out of here!

I pulled off the Jinyang job for you!

I'm the one who's keeping you\Nin the House.

Japanese beef.

It never disappoints me.

Do you know why it tastes so good?

It's because they keep the breed pure.

They feed them special stuff,

play music to relieve their stress,

and give massages from time to time.

All that...

to freaking cows.

But do you know why they do it?

To slaughter them,

and eat their well-grown meat.

Pretty much the same goes for a hound.

But...

what if the hound has gone mad\Nand became useless?

What do you do?

You either throw him out,

or...

beat him to death.

That's what you do.

What I choose to do...

is up to you.

So stop raving around like a mad dog.

Shouldn't you go see a doctor\Nor something?

This is Lee Jae-han.

Detective, this is Sun-woo.

Sun-woo? Park Sun-woo?

Yes.

I got out today.

Hold on.

Talk to me.

I see.

Is everything OK?

I've been planning on going to Inju.

I have something to tell you, Detective.

What is it?

I've found an evidence\Nfor Hye-seung's case.

Are you sure? What is it?

The red muffler she was wearing that day.

-A muffler?\N-I can't trust anyone else.

I want to hand it to you myself.

OK, I'll be there ASAP.

Stay home and wait for me.

Alright.

-I'm going out of town.\N-What?

-Write it up for me, will you?\N-OK.

We got called to Yeonwoo-dong.

-Everyone's up!\N-Everyone?

-Yeah, everyone!\N-Everybody out!

What's wrong with her?

-Tell Soo-hyun to be careful.\N-Right.

Hey, weren't you going out of town?

Let's go already.

Open them up.

You alright?

Hey, get him up!

Soo-hyun!

You OK?

-Hey!\N-Jae-han...

-You got stabbed!\N-I'm fine.

-See if Soo-hyun's OK.\N-Jae-han.

Are you OK?

Does this look OK to you?

Stop crying. I'm not gonna die.

You don't know that!

I'm gonna joke about this\Nfor the next 30 years.

Wait till I get out of the hospital.

I like you.

What?

I said...

I like you, Jae-han.

It's OK if you like someone else.

I don't care if you never get over\Nyour first love.

Just don't get hurt...

and don't die.

What's gotten into her?

CALLING PARK HAE-YOUNG

They'd gotten samples of semen\Nand saliva from the scene,

but the samples came out as contaminated.

So all they had was suspects'\Nand witnesses' statements.

All the statements matched\Nlike pieces of a puzzle.

But they left out something.

-The red muffler.\N-The red muffler?

A guy I know worked on the case back then.

He said the victim mentioned\Nthe muffler in the initial statement.

She said she was wearing it\Nat the time of the crime,

and left it in the scene.

Did they look into it?

They didn't do\Nany investigations on it at all.

What do you mean?

They left out everything that had to do\Nwith the red muffler.

It's one of the most crucial evidences\Nof the case,

and they just left it out?

I'm starting to think\NPark Hae-young's right.

There's something fishy about this case.

Cpt. Ahn told Hae-young to come\Nto Inju Hospital, right?

Cpt. Ahn said he had something to tell me,

and told me to come to Inju Hospital.

The place where my brother died,

and where Cpt. Ahn got killed\Ntrying to uncover the truth,

Inju Hospital.

The secret he tried to tell me\Nshould be hidden in there.

I have to figure out\Nwhere he went and why.

Park Hae-young.

I know why you've been onto the Inju case.

It's your brother, Park Sun-woo.

The sound of ambulance's siren.

That case is bigger than...

The gurney.

If you find out the truth,

you'll be in danger too.

The elevator.

The paramedics' radio.

He was near the ER.

If you think you can handle the truth,

come and meet me in Inju.

Find more witnesses.

-And don't forget the cameras.\N-Yes, sir.

-Find Park Hae-young.\N-We're on it, sir.

The elevator, the gurney, and the ER.

What is it?

The emergency staircase.

Where did he go from here?

MRI, PHARMACY, ADMIN.,\NBLOOD COLLECTION

"Blood collection."

His blood.

They collected his blood.

Sun-woo cut his wrist and killed himself.

There were no signs of struggle.

But what if...

What if...

BLOOD COLLECTION ROOM

The 15 year-old blood sample\Nwouldn't be there now.

PHARMACY

But...

the sample's test record\Nmight still exist.

The record from 15 years ago.

They would keep it in...

ADMINISTRATION

I'll call you back.

Can I help you?

Good evening.

I'm from Seoul PD.

Have you seen this man?

This man. A few days ago?

I already told the other officers\Neverything.

He came in the other day\Nand asked about a blood sample.

May I ask which one it was?

Sample number 0035Z04.0.

What's the patient's name\Nthat the sample was collected from?

He came into the ER in 2000.

His name was Park Sun-woo, 18 years old.

And the results?

We tested for alcohol and other chemicals.

Results were positive on sedatives.

Did you say...

sedative?

Yes.

Its concentration was 28mg per liter.

Can a person pass out with that much?

I'm not sure.

It depends on if the person\Nhad been on medication,

or had any medical conditions\Nat that time.

But for a normal person...

yes, it's highly possible.

Sun-woo.

Sun-woo...

Park Hae-young.\NWhat do you think you're doing here?

I told you to stay low.

They're already onto you.

One wrong move can cause serious problems.

It wasn't...

It wasn't suicide.

-What?\N-My brother...

He didn't commit suicide.

What are you saying?

Fifteen years ago...

they tested his blood\Nand it came out positive on sedatives.

Someone made it look like\Nhe killed himself...

after drugging him.

That's what Cpt. Ahn was after.

The truth that my brother was murdered.

Who would...

Why?

LEE JAE-HAN\N017-589-3230

Dong-jin told me to give this to you.

He said he's leaving Korea.

And he's not coming back.

He also said that he's sorry.

The muffler.

The murderer was after that.

A muffler?

Cpt. Ahn was trying to prove\Nhe had Hye-seung's muffler.

He asked me to testify\Nthat Sun-woo had the muffler.

The murderer...

He came for the evidence\Nthat can prove what really happened.

It's OK.

I'm going to start over too.

That was the last time I saw him.

I'm never going to quit on my life.

He didn't sound like\Nhe would commit suicide.

He never gave up hope.

Even when the police, his friends,\Nand everyone else gave up on him.

But he didn't.

He was going to do everything\Nto clear his name.

And all this time...

I thought...

I thought he killed himself.

Hae-young.

He was murdered.

I can't let that happen again.

I won't.

What you had said before.

Is that what this is?

"We can't change the present..."

"But we can change the past."

Is it?

I need to ask you something.

Where did you get this?

I know what this is better than anyone.

This is Jae-han's walkie.

And why was this in your house?

Hey, Point Five--

I like you.

I said...

I like you, Jae-han.

What?

It's OK if you like someone else.

I don't care if you never get over\Nyour first love.

Just don't get hurt...

and don't die.

Hey.

She's sleeping like a log. Wake up.

Jeez, it's hot in here.

That's not good.

Hold on.

Damn it.

Wait, hold it.

This isn't good.

I really shouldn't have done it.

Come on, hold it in there.

That was a close call.

Answer me.

Where did you get this?

I asked you the other day...

what you'd do if you could talk\Nto someone in the past.

What would you do if you could...

talk to someone in the past?

You said...

I'd ask him to keep\Nthe person I love safe.

You'd ask him to keep\Nthe person you love safe.

So would I.

I want to save my brother.

Even if it'd mess things up.

-What are you talking about?\N-That kidnapping case.

You asked me how I found\NSeo Hyung-joon's body.

Detective Lee Jae-han told me.

He told me if I search\NSeon-il Mental Hospital,

I'd find the body.

Lt. Park.

This is Detective Lee.

I'm at Seon-il Mental Hospital\Nyou'd told me about.

There's a body in the manhole\Nbehind the hospital.

It's the kidnapping suspect\NSeo Hyung-joon's body.

It was Detective Lee.

Detective Lee Jae-han told me from 2000...

through this walkie.

-You're kidding.\N-That's not all.

That Hongwon-dong murder case.

We changed the past.

And when the past changed...

The present changed too.

The person who would've died...

...had survived.

No!

And the person who would've lived\Nhad died.

For that, someone's life...

had fallen apart.

OH KYUNG-TAE\N1958-2005

When we changed the past,

there was always a price to pay.

No!

It can...

mess up everything.

That's why...

I couldn't tell Detective Lee...

that he dies in August 3rd...

when he goes to Seon-il Mental Hospital.

I couldn't tell him.

What?

-What do you mean?\N-In 2000...

right before Detective Lee got killed,

the transmission came.

I think this is going to be\Nmy last transmission.

The past can be changed.

Never give up.

You're crazy.

How can that be...

What?

How...

How is this...

Lt. Park.

Park Sun-woo is not the real perp\Nof the Inju case.

I'm on it so don't worry.

Detective, it's me.\NYou need to save my brother.

What are you talking about?

My brother was framed, just like you said.

And he gets murdered\Nin February 18th, 2000!

February 18th...

I thought he killed himself\Nbut I was wrong.

Someone...

Someone killed him and covered it up!

Did you say February 18th, 2000?

-Are you sure?\N-Yes, I'm sure.

Detective?

Detective, do you read me?

Detective Lee!

What are you doing?

Detective!

What's going on?

Park Hae-young. Answer me.

That man...

Who is he?

I've found the evidence\Nfor Hye-seung's case.

I can't trust anyone else.

I want to hand it to you myself.

Answer me!

The man on the radio.

Who is he?

You already know who it was.

It can't be.

Jae-han is...

He is...

He's dead.

He's still alive...

on the other side of this radio.

I told you I'm not done with you.

Are you hiding something?

You got a warrant?

You're a lot smaller-minded\Nthan I thought.

How did it go?

-We have to find him.\N-And fast.

I can't drag you into this.

The past may already have been changed.

Jae-han?

I can save him. I have to save him.

-I don't care how. Just get it.\N-There's only one way.

I'm going to do it no matter the cost.

Park Hae-young.\NYou're under arrest for murder.

-This can't be happening.\N-That's what happens if you don't quit.

I'm not going to give up on you\Nor Jae-han.

Never.
