Kim Yeong-su.

Im Sol!

Sol!

THE POLICE ARRIVED AT THE SCENE…

I HEARD HER SCREAM AND CALLED THE POLICE…

THE ITEMS BELONGED TO IM SOL

MAY 10TH, 2009 12 - 1 A.M. 34-1 NURI-DONG, BUKDAEMUN-GU

WITNESS STATEMENT NAME: RYU SUN-JAE

The future changed.

Sol!

Sun-jae, what are we going to do?

What's on your mind?

What?

It's nothing.

Where are they? Are they buying out the snack bar?

Gosh, we're going to be late. Sorry.

The train is coming. Let's go.

Let's go.

Okay.

MAY 6TH, WEDNESDAY 2:00 P.M.

Wanna listen to some music?

Sol.

Sol?

Did you fall asleep?

Where am I?

What's wrong?

Why am I here with you?

Sol. What's wrong?

No.

Have you…

gone back?

Let go of me.

- Sol. - Don't follow me!

I'm a bit confused.

I'm going to leave. Excuse me.

I'll change my future on my own.

So Sun-jae,

please don't come to me this time.

A FEW DAYS AGO

What's this?

Darn it, no good again.

The prize money was ten billion won.

Ten billion won?

Yeah.

1106TH LOTTERY WINNING NUMBERS

- Do you have a memo pad? - Here.

These numbers will change your life.

They're my gift to you.

What's this?

I got these numbers from a really good fortune teller.

Are these lottery numbers or what?

How good of a fortune teller?

Just be patient and keep trying.

Don't give up after a couple of times. Keep playing until you win.

Got that?

Yeah, got it.

Hyeon-ju, I've done everything I can for you.

- Happy birthday. - Thanks.

- Let's go. - Okay.

There are better amusement parks than this one.

Why this one?

When my dad was alive,

we used to come here on my birthdays.

I've always wanted to come back.

You should have told me.

It's exactly the same.

Does it still exist in the future?

I think so.

Let's come again then.

We can come back here

when we meet again in the future.

Okay.

I hope we'll be able to come back too.

Come on.

Hey!

Don't eat the whole…

I hate you.

Sol!

SKULL KINGDOM

It's scarier than I thought it would be.

Really?

Just stay right behind me.

- Come on. - Okay.

This isn't scary at all.

Are you scared?

No, this isn't scary at--

See, these really aren't scary.

A figure, a skeleton…

and this…

Sun-jae.

Are you okay?

Hey, where are you going?

Why isn't he here yet?

- Sol! - I…

Excuse me.

Oh my gosh.

- Is that what you were buying? - Yeah.

I ran my butt off.

Can't have a birthday without a cake.

- Happy birthday. - You have to sing the song too.

Ryu Sun-jae is about to sing live right in my face.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday, dear Sol

Happy birthday to you

Thanks.

Check your right pocket.

When did you put it here? What is it?

Open it.

Why aren't you saying anything?

Do you not like it?

It's not that.

It's so pretty.

It's so pretty that I don't know what to say.

Good.

Can I try it on right now?

Let me help you.

Why is this so hard?

They make it look so easy on dramas.

- Should I do it? - I almost got it.

There.

Oh my goodness.

I'll give you lovebirds an extra ride.

Have a good time.

Please continue. Go on.

Another round on the house!

He totally got the wrong idea, didn't he?

This is so embarrassing.

So pretty.

It really is pretty.

Thank you.

I should be thanking you.

For being born.

For coming back in time for me.

And for letting me hold on to you.

Thank you.

Sun-jae.

You don't know this yet,

but the same person who saved me

made me want to live again too.

It was you.

Do I really do that?

So…

I want to thank you more.

Wait.

Is that all I get?

What?

He said to have a good time.

Since he already got the wrong idea…

You thanked me for being born,

and now want something in return?

You're ridiculous.

I kind of am.

If tomorrow comes and I…

I mean,

even if I end up going back today,

don't be too sad.

Don't cry, okay?

Oh, hello.

Hello.

How are you, folks?

I'm Detective Kim Won-cheol

from Gangmuk Police Station.

What?

What can we do for you, Detective?

We can't just take your word that an escapee will come here

and be on the stakeout all day.

Are you a psychic?

I wouldn't believe me either.

What should I do?

MOM

Hey, Mom.

Come back to Seoul right now.

What?

I told you I was going back tomorrow.

I heard you were abducted last year!

How did you know?

Detective Kim came by and told us everything.

You were taken by a murderer.

How could you not tell me?

Mom, I…

I don't want to hear it. Just come home now!

That murderer is still out there.

It's too dangerous for you to be outside!

No, wait. I'll come get you.

Wait in a public place with lots of people.

Calm down, okay?

I told you I'm with Sun-jae.

I'll be just fine.

Is he with you right now?

Of course!

And his friend's dad is taking us to the train station tomorrow.

If I suddenly leave, they'll be worried.

Then don't stay alone. Be around a lot of people.

No. Stick close to Sun-jae, okay?

Okay.

I'm sorry I didn't tell you.

I'll explain everything when I get home.

Okay, just be careful.

You should be trying to comfort her.

Don't yell at her.

I'm just so upset.

How traumatized was she to have lost her memory?

And to think that I yelled at her

for acting crazy.

Hello.

Hey, Sun-jae.

- Where's Sol? - Is Sol home?

I thought you were with her.

She said not to worry because you were with her.

She said she was with me?

Yes.

When?

I just talked to her on the phone.

What?

Sol. What's wrong?

Let go of me.

The watch. She still had it.

Why was the watch still here if she went back to the future?

Sun-jae.

If tomorrow comes and I…

I mean,

even if I end up going back today,

don't be too sad.

Where am I?

Why am I here with you?

Was she pretending to have gone back?

The 10th? What happens on that day?

And why here of all places?

Just put some men on stakeout here that day.

Because she's your son's friend? You even went to see her family.

That too,

but I can't help but worry about her.

Like I've known her for a long time.

Hey, rookie.

Yeah.

What? Got it.

- What is it? - Looks like Kim Yeong-su left Seoul.

We got several calls saying they saw him in Busan.

So the Busan PD checked nearby cameras.

They think it's him.

- Busan? - Yes, sir.

Hello?

Hi, Sol.

Detective Kim, I'm really sorry.

But can you come to me right now?

What? Where are you?

You're the only one I can ask for help.

Please, Detective.

I need your help.

The phone is turned off. Please leave a message…

May 10th.

He'll be here.

That's still a few days away.

What was she thinking?

Why did she lie?

Could the future have changed?

IN-HYEOK

- Hey. - Hey.

I don't think Sol got on the train at all.

- What? - My dad called.

He thinks he saw Sol by the docks.

He asked why she hasn't left.

Why didn't you leave?

Why?

You should've left.

You can't be here!

Just pretend you don't see me.

Wherever I am, whatever I do, whatever happens…

please just leave me alone.

She wanted to be there on her own.

It really is pretty.

Thank you.

I should be thanking you.

For being born.

For coming back in time for me.

And for letting me hold on to you.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, Sun-jae.

But you can't be here.

SAMWON FOODS

5:00 a.m.

A wall with a whale painting.

Red bricks.

Just you?

Yes.

I'll eat whatever you serve.

Sure.

MISSED CALLS SUN-JAE, MOM

Sol, where are you?

I met your mother.

Please answer the phone.

Sun-jae.

Please give me a little more time.

It'll all be over soon.

When is Detective Kim coming?

He has to be here before 5:00 a.m.

Hello? Detective Kim?

Yes, we just arrived.

We're right behind you.

We'll keep watch from here.

Thank you for coming.

Of course.

You really believe Kim Yeong-su will come here today?

We should be searching Busan.

His face has been splashed all over the country.

Why would he show up at train stations

where there are cameras everywhere?

So what?

You think he did that to send us on a wild goose chase?

Why?

We'll find out soon enough.

Where did he see Sol?

I think by the seawall?

- I'd like to pay now. - 16,000 won.

MAY 7TH, THURSDAY 5:00 A.M.

It's 5:00 a.m.

It's time.

I'll get off here.

Sol!

Sol!

Sol!

This is the place.

One.

May I check your IDs, please?

Two.

Three, four, five.

Kim Yeong-su!

Detective!

Out of my way.

Detective Kim!

Are you okay?

Damn it.

We got a call about potential danger.

Is everything all right?

What call?

Sol, are you okay?

What happened?

I'm sorry.

The suspect behind the Juyang murders, Kim Yeong-su…

He is about 180 cm tall with a sturdy build

and has almond-shaped eyes with monolids.

- Kim Yeong-su? - Shit.

Someone called saying a girl in pink was in danger

and asked us to protect her.

He didn't say anything about a wanted criminal?

No, but it sounded like he knew her though.

No.

Sun-jae.

No.

Sol!

Sol!

Sir!

Please, not again.

No…

Some choices are made

despite knowing how it'll end.

Because they can't help but fall in love.

I like you.

I like you, Sun-jae.

I love you.

I love you, Sol.

Sun-jae!

Sun-jae!

Sun-jae, it's morning.

It's time to wake up.

Wakey-wakey.

Rise and shine.

Hello?

Close your eyes.

If you close them, it's still dark.

- You're up. - No, I'm not up.

It's still nighttime for me.

Oh, come on.

You wished tomorrow wouldn't come.

Tomorrow won't come until you open your eyes.

Should we keep our eyes closed forever?

What will happen then?

This moment will last forever.

You just want to sleep in.

You got me.

Then let's just stay like this a little longer.

Okay.

Sun-jae!

Sun-jae.

Is it still nighttime for you?

FILM: RAINING IPTV, DVD SALES, STREAMING PROFITS

FILM: RUN PRELIMINARY BUDGET

Several seasons passed

since I came back to my time.

It's winter again.

There we go. How yummy.

Let's chew.

We're late! Let's go, Bo-ah.

I don't want to.

I don't want to go to work either, but come on!

Don't go.

Oh, Mal-ja.

- Don't go. - Honey.

- Thanks. - Your jacket and your bag.

- Me too. - Put your jacket on. Let's go!

Me too.

There, there.

Who made you cry?

You hungry?

I lost someone precious

at the cost of changing too much.

But I'm living in the present

like nothing ever happened.

Here, have some coffee.

Thanks.

You're here.

That's the stuff.

But you left before me.

I got stuck in a meeting with Bo-ah's preschool teacher.

She's gotten stubborn since her brother was born.

I'm so worried.

The boss doesn't know I was late, does she?

I told her you had a meeting.

You're the best. Thank you.

I heard she totally rejected your proposal yesterday.

- What did she say? - Well…

She said it was like your coffee.

- What? - That bad?

Yes. She said it was plain bland.

What?

She said she couldn't tell what kind of genre it was.

She also said it lacked the excitement to be a commercial movie

and that no one would pay to watch it unless a top star was in it.

She does have a point.

What are you talking about?

She thinks lattes and cappuccinos are the same.

What does she know about coffee?

She's got terrible taste.

See how she wants to produce crappy scenarios like Hero?

She has lost her touch.

Exactly!

A mermaid and an alien killing zombies and then going off to space?

What a load of…

I mean,

it'll get over ten million people in the theaters for sure.

You know I deeply admire how you take on new challenges.

Excuse me. I must prepare for my meeting.

- Ms. Im. - Yes?

See me in my office.

I need you to go to the set.

What? Did something happen again?

Our male lead, Park Do-jun,

wants us to cut the kissing scene.

We can't leave that out of a romance movie.

That's why I'm asking you to go and talk to him.

The director is livid and wants to replace him.

But without Park Do-jun,

our investors will back out, which means no film.

We can't let that happen.

What's his agency doing?

Why do I always have to go?

His agency fully respects

the actor's opinion.

He's the CEO's nephew.

There's His Majesty.

Hi, Do-jun!

You're more handsome than ever!

You're glowing!

No wonder it was so bright in here!

Hey, it's you again.

I was dying to see you.

He reeks of alcohol.

Have you been drinking?

Wait, is that booze?

Hey.

Do you like whisky?

You can't be drinking on set.

Hey,

isn't your name something like alcohol?

Im…

Scotch?

It's Sol, actually.

I heard you didn't want to do the kissing scene.

Why not?

I'm not filming anything until you take it out.

I can't.

Do-jun.

Remember the title of our film?

It's Would You Like to Kiss?

We can't take out the scene!

It's Would You Like to Kiss?

not We Kissed.

We can't leave a kissing scene out of a romantic movie.

That's like egg salad without eggs.

That'd be ridiculous!

Ever seen a dog in a hotdog?

A shepherd in shepherd's pie?

That's not even…

You know how important the kiss is to convey the characters' emotions.

I saw the storyboard. It'll be epic!

It'll be a masterpiece that'll go down in the history of Korean cinema.

Are you seriously not doing it?

You'll do it, won't you?

I know you will.

Take some time to sober up and brush your teeth--

I'm not doing it.

Why not? Why the heck not?

At least tell me why.

I shouldn't tell you.

Okay.

I'll tell you, but only you.

My girlfriend says I can't.

She's the jealous type.

I don't believe this.

- Will you kill yourself if she says so? - I'll pretend to.

I'm a good actor.

If you're going to act, act on set,

not for your girlfriend.

Anyway,

I'm not coming back until you cut the scene out.

Got it?

Later.

No, wait.

Do-jun?

Do-jun!

FILMING WOULD YOU LIKE TO KISS?

We haven't canceled the shoot.

You can't just leave!

- Whatever, I can't hear you. - Do-jun.

The director might be replacing you.

If you act this way…

Listen.

I know you only got the investors on board

because I'm in it.

Do-jun, hear me out.

She's unbelievably rude.

You've been drinking. Are you insane?

Get out of the car! Now!

Park Do-jun, you crazy bastard!

Damn it.

Hey! Are you nuts?

What's wrong with her?

Me?

You're the one who's nuts!

Get out, you punk!

You think you can do whatever you want?

You can't drive while drunk. Especially not with her in the car.

This is attempted murder!

Die if you want to,

but don't take anyone else with you!

What a thug.

You!

That was funny.

Can we watch it again?

- Keep it down! - Oh, well.

So an actor tried to leave the set,

and she tried to stop him?

Yes.

We refuse to settle until we get an apology.

An apology?

Could you be any more shameless?

See, what happened was…

I think you should get that.

- Yes, Ms. Lee. - Hey!

I said to talk to him,

not fight him and end up at the police station!

It's not what you think.

Just apologize.

Don't make things any worse.

What?

But Park Do-jun…

He was with his girlfriend.

Are you trying to start a dating scandal?

Our film could get canceled!

Just apologize and keep it quiet.

Ms. Lee!

What did she say?

I apologize.

It was my fault.

Don't apologize to me.

It's my artist whose feelings were hurt.

Excuse me?

LETTER OF APOLOGY

Was I destined to frequent police stations

and write apologies in my 30s?

Hey, pretty lady.

Hey, you look familiar.

You must be here often.

Will you be quiet?

I'm trying to focus here.

Want a tip on writing letters of apology?

I'm an expert.

Why is a cop behind bars anyway?

Perfect temperature and humidity.

I like it in here.

It's much more comfortable than the lounge.

Yeah, I guess you were meant to be in there.

Finish that up quickly.

You look down. I'll buy you a drink.

As if.

Forget it.

So what's this tip?

Here, write this down.

- Write what? - 911.

Please enjoy, boss.

Hey.

I didn't commit a crime. What's the tofu for?

You need a fresh start.

You've always been too fearless for your own good.

I should've known when you lectured the thugs back then.

You should worry about your own life.

So why were you at the police station?

He tried to drink and drive?

You should've told me earlier.

We would've done a breathalyzer test!

I was going to.

But my boss told me to apologize and keep quiet about it.

I'm not working at a production company

just to clean up messes.

Gosh, that's bitter.

Should I get all the footage from nearby dashcams?

I'll get proof that he drove while drunk and has a girlfriend

and throw the book at him.

That'll only get me fired.

But thanks anyway.

Give it.

I totally mean it.

It's okay.

By the way,

I heard the girl was Chae-ni, the model.

Yeah. What about it?

Is she pretty?

She is, isn't she?

Why is she with a guy like Park Do-jun

when she could be with me?

I should've asked In-hyeok to introduce me to her.

And if he had, you think she'd have gone out with you?

As if.

You still think you're an internet celebrity?

I still got it, don't I?

Those flirty eyes don't work anymore.

That's too bad.

Sun-jae used to be on that ad.

Don't drink so fast. You'll pass out.

If you pass out again, I'm leaving you here.

Come on, I didn't even drink that much.

Days like this, I can't get drunk even if I want to.

Why is the world doing this to me?

What did I ever do?

Gosh, let go.

Will you keep it down?

Park Do-jun, you punk.

I'll teach you a lesson!

That's right, you tell him.

Why did I even mention drinking?

And why are there no cabs around?

What a rough night.

Your scarf came loose.

You asleep?

Honestly, that's for the better.

Sleep.

Jeez.

Hey,

it's snowing.

It'll be hard to get a cab.

Sol.

I like you.

A lot.

Sol, stop running away from me.

Just like me.

If I die saving you,

I'm okay with that.

I don't care.

You said you missed me.

Well?

What about now?

I like you.

I like you, Sun-jae.

I love you.

I love you, Sol.

I can't get a cab.

Come on. Let's go.

Are you crying?

Stop crying.

Please?

Sun-jae.

What?

I miss you, Sun-jae.

Did you get to work okay?

I don't even remember how I got home.

I heard you carried me home. Thanks.

Then buy me lunch.

Want to eat together?

Aren't cops supposed to be busy?

Next time. I have to clean up my mess today.

I don't feel so good.

I'm firing Park Do-jun.

If the film gets canceled,

it'll be because of Park Do-jun's personal issues,

so we can sue them for damages.

I thought we were going to stay quiet.

I didn't know

that idiot was drinking and driving.

Why did you leave out the most important part?

You told me to keep quiet

before I could say anything.

Did I?

Yes.

Anyway,

I'll take care of it, so that's that.

I should've been looking out for you,

but I made you write an apology instead.

Sorry.

Could you say that again?

I'm sorry.

It's okay. Thanks.

By the way,

the proposal you showed me the other day.

Revise it by tomorrow and send it to me.

You said you didn't like it.

When did I say that?

I read it again,

and if we really hone in on the romance,

it could be something.

You mean…

Let's make a movie with your script.

Are you serious?

Thank you so much!

You know I think highly of you, right?

You should do well by me.

Absolutely.

I will do that.

Is that the budget?

Yes.

What's this?

Did someone tell you I was approving your proposal?

I take it this is a thank you note.

I'll give it a read tonight.

Well?

Don't you have a proposal to revise?

Oh, yes.

I'll do my best. Thank you!

Oh my gosh, congratulations!

I can't believe this day finally came, Hyeon-ju.

I had no idea she cared about me so much

and talked smack about her all night.

What's wrong?

The red envelope.

What? Stay quiet?

You stay quiet.

You know what?

I should just quit this stupid company!

I came to work on films,

not be treated like this!

Super-duper-quick-witted!

You once said that was the perfect way to describe me.

If that's the kind of employee I am,

- how could you do this to me? - Lee Gyeong-ja!

You're so cringe.

For the first time ever,

I'm writing a resignation letter.

I'm going to quit.

- Don't try to stop me, idiots. - I had great dreams when I joined,

but instead of working on films,

I'm only catering to celebrities and their egos.

So I quit.

I quit!

Ms. Lee Gyeong-ja.

Gyeong-ja!

You don't pay me nearly enough

for all this crap!

I'm too old to be writing

apology letters at police stations!

I hope you find someone who's more

super-duper-quick-witted than I am!

If you want me to stay,

you should be focusing on persuading me, Im Sol,

not some punk like Park Do-jun.

Gyeong-ja.

It's been shitty to work with you,

and I hope we never meet again.

Have a good life. Goodbye!

Good riddance!

Super-duper-quick-witted!

Oh no!

What am I going to do?

Bye-bye. You're out of here.

Your proposal just got the green light. Seriously?

Bye-bye.

She said she'd read it later. I still have time.

Hey!

She already left.

Where did she go?

WHITE DRAGON FILM AWARDS FILMMAKERS' NIGHT

THE 45TH WHITE DRAGON FILM AWARDS

What am I going to do after saying hi?

If she asks why I'm here, what do I say?

And how do I get that letter?

Perfect.

Hello.

Cheers!

What the…

Darn it!

What a relief.

I guess she didn't read it yet.

I should go and put this back.

Sun-jae!

Sun-jae!

Sun-jae!

Sun-jae!

Sun-jae!

But how did my watch end up becoming a time machine?

How could I tell you that it all happened

after you died?

It can't be.

Sun-jae.

Maybe we should have never met in the first place.

No, we should have never met.

Sun-jae.

Why are you crying? I didn't do anything.

- The award goes to… - No!

She better hope I never run into her again.

I don't want you in this film, Mr. Ryu.

Why would she hate me?

We're total strangers.

Sol. What's wrong? Are you okay?

Did you get a look at his face?

We meet again.

Don't you think fate has a hand in two lives being so intertwined?

I'd never do anything that fate doesn't want me to do.

Are you saying I have to risk my life

if I want to be in your life?
