Oh my! What am I going to do?

A TIME CALLED YOU

Is it really you, Yeon-jun?

I missed you.

I missed you so much, Yeon-jun.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry for arguing with you back then.

I knew how you were feeling…

Where have you been all this time? I've been waiting for you.

Hey, what's gotten into you, Kwon Min-ju?

Hey, you're here.

Why are you calling me Kwon Min-ju?

Are you okay, Min-ju?

I've been worried about you.

Why do you keep calling me Min-ju? Huh?

Hello.

…mourn the passing of our brother in Christ, Andrew Koo Yeon-jun.

Then you should greet me back too. I'm your friend as well.

Who sent this?

-Happy birthday to you -Happy birthday to you

Are you okay, Min-ju?

Jung In-gyu?

That's right. It's me, In-gyu.

How about me?

Do you recognize me?

You're…

I'm Nam Si-heon. You really don't remember me?

Nam Si-heon.

What's today's date?

June 15th.

2023?

What are you on about? It's 1998, of course.

1998?

She must've hurt her head badly in the accident.

Kwon Min-ju.

What's the last thing you remember?

Do you remember how it happened?

I can remember you two celebrating my birthday with me in front of the shop.

-That's right. -Yeah.

No, wait.

Yeon-jun.

It was the first birthday I spent without him.

What?

No. That's not right either!

Oh, right. Do-hun.

I left home to find my mom, who had disappeared with Do-hun.

But a car suddenly came my way really fast.

I was so startled that I couldn't dodge it.

Yes, that's right. That's how the accident happened!

Where are Mom and Do-hun now, then?

Hey, what's wrong?

Where's my mom right now?

Your mother? She said she was gonna drop by your house.

Her daughter was lying unconscious in the hospital, yet she still went home?

It's obviously because of Do-hun, that brat!

Do you guys have money for a taxi?

Mom, answer the phone!

I was busy in the kitchen. Did you have to call for me?

How can you play games when your sister's in the hospital?

Why, I should just burn your game console!

Try it. I'll run away.

You're such a spoiled little brat.

Why aren't you at the hospital?

I just dropped by to cook Do-hun's dinner.

I told you I'd cook him dinner.

Hurry back to the hospital. What if something happens to Min-ju?

Is Min-ju really not doing that well?

Your sister is…

Min-ju. When did you wake up?

And how did you get home?

Wow.

I mean, don't you think this is a bit much?

Mom, did you come back home to cook Do-hun's dinner?

You know that he doesn't even know how to set the table when he's by himself.

Then let him starve!

It won't kill him to skip a meal!

Mom, aren't you even worried about your daughter lying in the hospital?

Also, how could you abandon me and run away from home?

When did I abandon you?

So, why was the house such a mess? Why were you and Do-hun gone?

Oh, that? Do-hun did all that,

and I went after him because I thought he stole money and ran away from home.

You're so loud. I can't concentrate on the game.

Ouch!

Hey, what's up with you?

"Hey"?

Who do you think you are? Are you my older brother or something?

You keep acting up, thinking Mom's on your side.

Keep it up, and I'll beat you like a drum!

Mom, it's all your fault that he's a little brat like this!

It's because you are always so lenient with him.

But you always tell me to be understanding!

I mean, seriously. Am I really your daughter? Am I?

-Oh, goodness! -Min-ju!

It's understandable that you're angry, but you shouldn't be here right now.

He's right. Let's go to the hospital.

I will go myself.

Yeon-jun, please take me to the hospital.

Me? I told you. I'm Nam Si-heon.

I don't care what your name is. Just take me to the hospital!

Let's go.

Hey, Kwon Min-ju!

-Goodness! -Min-ju!

Now look this way.

Can you tell me your name and your age?

I'm Han Jun-hee.

Oh.

Kwon Min-ju?

I think my name is Kwon Min-ju.

How about your age?

I'm 36 years…

No, I mean, I'm 18.

I'm 18 years old.

Do you remember how you ended up in the hospital?

Yes, I remember. I was in a car accident, right?

Are you sure it was a car accident?

Yes.

Doctor, is her condition that bad?

Her wounds aren't as serious as I thought.

Her confusion could stem from the shock of the accident,

but we'll keep her here for a few days and observe her.

-Okay. -Okay.

Thank you so much.

Why are you boys still here?

Oh, now that we know she's all right, we'll get going.

We'll get going, then.

Min-ju, the police will be visiting later to ask you a few questions.

But why?

You weren't hurt because you were hit by a car.

You were found lying unconscious on the road with your head bleeding.

A passerby saw you and reported it.

But that could've been because I got hit by a car, right?

According to the police, the shape of the wound on your head

suggests that someone hit you from behind with a blunt object.

Hey, Jung In-gyu.

Are you mad at me?

Oh. Kwon Min-ju hugged me back there

because she mistook me for someone else, so--

I'm mad about what happened that day, not today.

-What do you mean? -On Min-ju's birthday.

I saw everything. Min-ju telling you that she liked you.

I'm never going to like you in that way.

Is it because In-gyu likes me?

-Because he's your friend? -It has nothing to do with In-gyu.

I consider you a friend.

I've never thought of you as anything else.

I'm going to pretend I didn't hear what you just said.

So make sure you don't show it in front of In-gyu. Okay?

I'll get going.

I kept thinking about it after Min-ju's injury.

If you hadn't said those things to her that day,

Min-ju wouldn't have gotten hurt.

Are you saying the accident happened because I rejected her?

I don't have any feelings for her. Should I have still accepted her feelings?

You didn't have to be so cruel to her!

If you hadn't hurt her, she would've asked us for help that night.

Hey, Jung In-gyu. Are you actually mad at me right now?

Or are you mad at yourself for pushing Kwon Min-ju on me?

You are right. I have no reason to be angry at you.

Your sister's back from the hospital. Aren't you going to say hi?

Hi.

What is it?

Based on this familiar feeling of annoyance,

you're definitely my little brother, yet something is unfamiliar about you too.

It's so strange.

It's all right. It's fine. It's just an aftereffect of the accident.

They still haven't caught your attacker,

so don't go around alone for the time being.

Okay, Uncle.

Go to your room and rest.

-Why are you going that way? -What?

Your room is upstairs.

I knew that.

I was just testing you to see if you knew.

Why would you test me?

Min-ju.

Why would you-- Mom, is she okay to be home?

Will you just be quiet?

This is definitely not my style.

I've been wearing clothes like this?

LOGARITHMS CHANGE OF BASE FORMULA

It's been a month since the new semester of the new year started.

I've been trying hard to fit in with the other kids,

but I've failed yet again.

Every year, every new semester,

even though I try, I always end up failing to make friends with the other students.

I try talking to them and even pretend to laugh at their jokes.

But in the end, I am always left alone, as if it had already been decided.

Wait, I kept a depressing journal like this?

I mean, how can a journal be this dark and sad?

Every time I see him,

I find myself holding my breath upon seeing his dazzling smile.

I did it.

Let me try it again.

Every time I look at him, almost as if his smile is contagious,

I find myself smiling.

How is it that I can't take my eyes off Nam Si-heon,

even though doing so makes me feel small every time?

Even though I feel more and more miserable the more I like him?

-Yes? -Can you come out for a minute?

The Noksan police are here.

How are you feeling?

I'm feeling much better now.

Do you remember who attacked you on the day of the accident, by any chance?

No.

To be honest, I don't even remember being attacked.

Then, what's the last thing you remember?

Being hit by a car.

Where did it happen?

You know, that big road near the Noksan intersection.

That's quite far from where you were found.

Knee fractures are commonly observed when a car hits a pedestrian.

But your doctor didn't say anything about your knees getting hurt.

Well, my knees were just slightly scratched.

Then it's highly unlikely that this was a car accident.

On top of that, your wound indicates you were hit with a blunt object.

That's really weird.

I have no recollection of getting hit on the head.

If Min-ju's memories don't come back,

does that mean you can't catch the attacker?

Right now, we're investigating the area

and questioning people to find any witnesses or evidence.

Still, it'd be best if Min-ju regained her memory.

Call us at this number if you remember anything, okay?

Okay.

Thank you.

I don't remember making enemies with anyone,

let alone getting into any arguments with anyone.

So, who on earth could've attacked me?

This is frustrating.

What was that noise?

Here. Have a drumstick.

What's with the chicken?

For your strength. You just got out of the hospital. Enjoy.

What made you come all the way here with chicken?

About what I said on your birthday…

Oh, that.

That you would never like me back?

Yes, about that.

Yeah.

I hope you won't avoid me and In-gyu just because I said that.

If you're in any trouble, don't wander off on your own like that day,

and feel free to ask us for help.

I mean, how can I do that after you rejected me like that?

Just because I rejected--

Just because I said those things doesn't mean that we're no longer friends.

We can't even be friends since you rejected me.

This is exactly why friends shouldn't express feelings so easily.

What?

Are you really Kwon Min-ju?

I mean, in the past, you would've been so embarrassed

if I had asked you these kinds of questions.

But now…

What about now?

It seems like you're talking about someone.

You're right.

Exactly. Yes, you're right.

That's been driving me nuts.

When I read through my journal

or hear about the things I've said, done, and thought about,

that was clearly me, but it just doesn't feel like that was me.

Koo Yeon-jun, you said that you rejected me, right?

Koo Yeon-jun. That name again.

But I'd never confess feelings like that and get rejected.

When's the right moment?

Only when you've been flirting for a while and are certain you won't get rejected.

No rejections for me.

Let me ask you this.

Who on earth is Koo Yeon-jun?

What?

You've been calling me Koo Yeon-jun since the hospital.

Who is Koo Yeon-jun?

You'll think I'm crazy if I tell you this.

No, it's all right.

I already suspect you're not in your right mind.

Come on, tell me.

We've shared a secret with each other already.

To be honest,

ever since I woke up, it hasn't felt like I'm Kwon Min-ju.

You know that feeling?

You wake up after a long dream,

but the dream seems like reality, and the me now is the one that isn't real.

Then, who are you?

In my dream, I was Han Jun-hee, not Kwon Min-ju.

And you. You weren't Nam Si-heon, but Koo Yeon-jun.

When I was Jun-hee in the dream, unlike Min-ju, I spoke my mind,

and I was really successful at work too.

So tell me more about this Koo Yeon-jun.

I met you…

I mean, Koo Yeon-jun, in college.

IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME

Boo.

Boo!

Never mind.

IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME

In my dream, you treated me

like you'd known me for a long time, from the time we first met.

It was like you knew me better than I did without me having to say a word, you know?

We started living together after we graduated from college.

Neither of us had any money then,

so we lived in a basement studio.

But we were still really happy in that home.

We were engaged to be married,

and I thought I'd live happily ever after with you, Yeon-jun.

But Yeon-jun…

passed away in an accident.

After you were gone,

I lived on without being able to erase a single trace of you.

I knew in my head that you had died…

but my heart couldn't accept it.

I didn't think it was this much.

-Huh? -I didn't know you liked me this much.

What?

You liked me so much that you had all these dreams.

I'm going to go. Bye.

You know I'm right.

I don't even know why I liked you in the first place.

You're joking around when I'm talking to you seriously.

Also, the man I like is Koo Yeon-jun from my dream, not you, Nam Si-heon.

So, please! I beg of you!

Will you please forget what I said to you or that I told you I liked you?

I was the one that said we should pretend it never happened first, okay?

You told me that you liked me, and now you tell me that you don't.

Seriously, what's with you?

I asked you to forget what I said. Why are you so mad?

Oh, you sort of had feelings for me, didn't you?

Hey, why would I…

Oh, this is all a part of your plan, isn't it?

What do you mean?

You were embarrassed I rejected you,

so you made up that dream about Koo Yeon-jun, right?

It's not like that. In my dream, I really was--

Never mind. Forget it.

Hey, Kwon Min-ju!

I understand that you're embarrassed, but you still shouldn't make things up.

It'll become a habit.

Worry about yourself, you jerk!

You were embarrassed I rejected you,

so you made up that dream about Koo Yeon-jun, right?

What a jerk!

I told him because he asked me!

So annoying!

She's changed.

She's changed completely.

She's nothing like Kwon Min-ju.

Is it because she hurt her head?

Is it really you, Yeon-jun?

I missed you so much, Yeon-jun!

Neither of us had any money then,

so we lived in a basement studio.

But we were really happy in that home.

I thought I'd live happily ever after with you, Yeon-jun.

But Yeon-jun passed away in an accident.

Hey!

Wow, how can he sleep through this?

Hey, Kwon Do-hun!

Hey, get up!

Get up!

Do we look alike?

There's definitely a resemblance. But why doesn't it feel like she's my mom?

Why didn't you wake me up? I'm going to be late!

My school's not like yours. They'll kill me if I'm late!

I actually did wake you.

And you're in high school. Do you need someone to wake you up?

Turn off the alarm right away from now on, or I'm going to smash it with a hammer.

Breakfast.

Go get it yourself.

Do you expect your sick sister to serve it for you?

Mom, Min-ju didn't wake me up, and now she wants me to get my own breakfast.

From now on, wake up by yourself.

You can't rely on your sister forever.

Did you sleep well?

I did.

Oh. I made some bean sprout soup for you, Mom.

Don't worry about it. I'll get it myself.

What a great daughter I have. You made soup for my hangover.

Hold on.

You have to eat well in order to get better.

I'll make bulgogi for dinner tonight. Your favorite.

Bulgogi?

Hey…

I mean… Sis, aren't you going to school?

Your sister is still sick.

The attacker hasn't been caught yet. I'm scared to send her to school.

You still can't remember the attacker, right?

No.

You'll have to be extra careful until they catch that lunatic, okay?

Okay.

Kwon Do-hun, do the dishes before you head out to school.

Who, me?

Did you just tell me to do the dishes right now?

-Mom! -Gosh, I feel sick.

I can make breakfast for myself. You should've slept more, Grandma.

It's all right. At my age, it's hard to sleep in.

You're the one who should sleep more. You must be tired from studying.

Oh, didn't you…

didn't you say you lost that hearing aid?

Did you find it?

No, I couldn't find it. So I'm using the one I used to use long ago.

Right.

Where could you have lost it?

Should I buy you a new one?

I heard that there are new ones that are quite nice.

I'm okay with this one.

Okay.

Come on, eat up.

Now, look.

Two theories, evolutionary and cyclical, are used to explain social change.

In evolutionary theory,

society progresses or develops in one direction…

In my dream, I was Han Jun-hee, not Kwon Min-ju.

And you. You weren't Nam Si-heon, but Koo Yeon-jun.

…rise and fall in an endless series of cycles.

They rise and fall, rise and fall, like this.

Do you understand?

Yes.

KOO YEON-JUN

Now, again. The evolutionary theory is about progression and development,

while the cyclical theory is about rise and fall.

This is important.

It'll be on your next test.

Okay.

Attention! Bow!

Thank you!

Jung In-gyu!

Wait for me. You're going to see Min-ju, right?

I can go by myself.

But you told me to be nice to her.

Besides, her attacker could appear at any moment.

How could I let you go alone?

I have to go with you and protect you, you know?

Let's go.

Hey, about snapping at you the other day…

Can't hear you! If you're gonna apologize, forget it.

Come on.

Who is it?

-Hi. -What the heck?

What are you guys doing here?

How's your head?

My head? It's fine. I have a hard head, you know.

Of course you do.

Why are you here?

The attacker hasn't been caught yet. We'll catch them.

How will we catch the attacker that the police couldn't catch?

There's a way. First, we have to go somewhere.

Where?

The first step in any investigation.

Revisit the scene of the crime first.

Over here.

-Here? -Yeah.

On that day, a cab was coming down from up there.

And I ran after it down here to catch it.

But I couldn't catch the cab. Then a car sped toward me.

I definitely thought that the car had hit me then.

And then?

And then I don't remember what happened next.

Do you remember this place?

You were lying here that morning when you hurt your head.

I was here?

-You don't remember? -No, I don't remember.

This place is quite a distance to walk at your pace

from where you said the car hit you, right?

Then, why were you lying here if you can't even remember coming here?

The attacker must've dragged you here.

-The attacker? -Yeah, that would explain everything.

Min-ju has to remember on her own.

You can't plant false memories in her head.

She can't remember, so I'm coming up with theories.

How are those theories? They're leading questions.

Did you meet anyone you knew that night, by any chance?

You're basically doing what I did.

No, I'm not.

How so?

Hey, wait a minute.

Be quiet so I can gather my thoughts.

That night, you guys threw me a birthday party,

and after that, I went home…

Yeon-jun, In-gyu, you're confusing me even more.

You called me Koo Yeon-jun again. I'm not him!

He's your boyfriend in your dream.

I told you to forget that, didn't I?

What are you talking about? Her boyfriend in her dream?

Well, that's….

I don't think I can remember anything today.

Let's head back now.

Is there something I'm missing?

You should ask Kwon Min-ju yourself.

I didn't understand what she said anyway.

Thanks for the ride. Bye!

What is it?

Do you have something to say?

Well…

Can I ask about the dream Si-heon was talking about earlier?

Oh, that? It really is nothing.

-No need to tell me if it's uncomfortable. -No, it's not that.

So, I had this dream while I was in the hospital.

In that dream, I was this person called Han Jun-hee.

Nam Si-heon was this person called Koo Yeon-jun.

And those two…

were in love with each other in the dream.

It's really weird, isn't it?

I know it sounds really weird,

but the Koo Yeon-jun in my dream felt real.

So that's why Koo Yeon-jun pops up in my mind whenever I see Nam Si-heon.

If it was Koo Yeon-jun you liked so much in your dream…

doesn't that mean it's not Si-heon you like

but actually Koo Yeon-jun?

And that makes me feel like I still have a chance.

Oh, about that, In-gyu--

Let me tell you officially.

I like you.

I've had my eye on you for a long time.

-Hurry up and run! -You hurry up!

We'll lose our seats!

"I'm so sick and tired of being alone."

"I wish somebody would understand me."

"I wish someone would…"

…accept me for who I am instead of treating me like a weirdo!

I wanted to tell you back then…

that I also understand

what it feels like

to be left out and alone.

-Want to grab some burgers later? -Sounds good.

-Burgers, then? -Yes.

-Nam Si-heon! -Let's go.

-What's this? -The science test topics are out.

We need to know the reactions of potassium to lead.

What are you doing? Come on!

Let's go.

He knocked this guy out with a single blow.

Isn't it awesome?

Really? This is so unreal.

Look at this.

Look at him go. Isn't he awesome?

Like, seriously.

He can't be real.

Back then,

I got scared and gave up when I found out that you liked Si-heon.

But I only realized after you got hurt

that what's worse than getting rejected is…

regretting not telling you how I feel.

In-gyu,

I truly appreciate that you like me.

But right now, I--

You don't have to tell me right now.

I just wanted you to know…

that you're a very important

and meaningful person to me.

Take your time with your answer.

The entire time I was listening to In-gyu tell me how he felt,

I was thinking I wasn't the one who should be hearing this.

In-gyu was definitely talking about us,

but it felt like I was hearing him talk about someone else.

That's why I couldn't say anything,

despite knowing how much it hurt him to tell me.

I don't know why I'm thinking such things.

Is this all because of that stupid dream?

Kwon Min-ju!

I still can't remember what happened on the day of the accident,

but everything soon went back to normal.

Now that everything is familiar,

I can't believe I had an accident like that.

Kwon Min-ju!

Hey, Nam Si-heon! Jung In-gyu!

This isn't a comic book store. Go read them at home!

-Uh-huh. Okay. -Uh-huh.

Hey, that's my uncle's. Put it down!

Hey, put it down!

Put it down!

-Why? -Put it down!

Stop fooling around and give that back to Min-ju.

My uncle will kill me if it breaks!

For this? I mean, how much could it be?

Is it expensive?

You little brat.

Do you know how hard that was to come by?

Why did you get a camera if you were just going to let it gather dust?

Why, you little…

You deserved that.

-Yeah, you got what you deserved! -Why are you hitting me?

Serves you right!

I knew you'd get punished.

Right, In-gyu?

Get closer, you three.

All right. On the count of three.

Three, two, one.

We've been spending time together as if we'd been close friends for years.

As time went by,

the dream I had while I was unconscious started fading away.

And the feeling that I am not Kwon Min-ju is going away too.

But what I find difficult to understand

is that, strangely, once in a while, the man from the dream, Koo Yeon-jun,

still comes to mind when I see Nam Si-heon in front of me.

You left me for someone else

But I still cannot forget you

So I gather my tears

And send them off to the sky

Though I'm not your love…

My uncle printed some extra copies while he was at it. This one's yours.

Kwon Min-ju. Her handwriting is awful. It's nothing like how she seems.

And I'll tell you That because I cannot forget you

I'll just continue to love you

Dear, I'm going to wait

When my letter of tears Reaches the sky

Someday, you will come back

To me

Why did you turn it off? I was listening to it.

What do you mean you were listening? You were nodding off.

You should try other songs too.

Stop listening to the same song.

Okay.

Hello.

We're from Noksan Police Station.

Oh, you must be here to investigate Min-ju's case.

Yes. How have you been?

I've been okay, but I still can't remember anything that happened that day.

We're actually here to show you something.

We found this at the crime scene and were wondering if you recognized it.

That's the hearing aid that I always wear.

Without it, I can't hear anything with my right ear.

Was this dropped by the attacker?

Well, we'll need to investigate further to see if it's the attacker's.

Is there anyone you know with a hearing impairment, by any chance?

Help me!

Help me!

Miss?

This is the last stop. You need to get off.

Where are we? Are we in Noksan?

Noksan?

No. We're in Seoul, of course.

Did you say Seoul?

Then, is it 2023 now?

Not 1998?

Yes, this is the year 2023.

You must still be half-asleep. Get off the bus, please.

I was definitely Kwon Min-ju just a moment ago.

So, that was all a dream?

YEON-JUN

9:21 P.M. YEON-JUN, I MISS YOU SO MUCH

YEON-JUN

YEON-JUN DIALING

Hello?
