Mari!
The city was flooded and everyone had evacuated...
Only Mari was left alone in her house...
I was trying to rescue her.
I have a question.
When you woke up, how did you feel?
Very sad...
I am sure you were very disturbed...
No. When I woke up,
I couldn't remember Mari's face.
I called out her name, yet I couldn't remember her face.
I couldn't believe it. I had forgotten her face.
You seem busy.
Your phone has been ringing consistently.
Is everything okay?
No. Things are a little complicated in my life these days.
Do you like elephants?
When I was a kid,
my mom took me and my friends to the Chang-Kyung Zoo.
It was sunny and
there were lots of people.
So mom said,
if we got separated,
we were to meet by the grand elephant.
Well as we wandered about, eating our cotton candy,
it came to be that it was just me and my 2 friends.
We were lost in the crowd of people.
So we went searching for the elephant.
But when we finally got to the elephant corral...
The corral was huge!
And there were so many people we could barely see the elephant.
On top of that, the elephant would not stay still.
The beast kept wondering around.
So we followed the elephant,
pushing through the crowd...
I thought all we had to do was find the elephant...
We were lost in a flood of people,
the elephant kept sauntering around,
my mom could not be seen anywhere...
It was really scary.
That was the first time in my life
when I was really scared.
Is that how you feel now?
Scared?
Yes.
The 2 friends who went searching for the elephant with me...
I really like them both. But now I feel like
I am searching for them.
Hyun-woo, have no fear.
Unhealthy person has to be humble.
Unhealthy person might be humble,
but he doesn't have to cower.
Hyun-woo, you have so much
more than you think.
And you are a meaningful individual to someone out there.
Do you live here... here at the hospital?
Yes. Not only I live here,
but I'm pretty much locked up here.
You should take a break once in a while...
Your work is important,
but you should take time off once in a while.
What I mean is...
Didn't you come with your friend today?
No... I came by myself.
Thank you for the elephant story.
Sure...
I don't think I've ever seen a real elephant.
Really?
Let's grab a drink sometime. And we'll go see some elephants.
What?
Put your hands underneath your behind...
and take a deep breath...
We are done today.
I'm so sorry.
No.
It's not anyone's fault when emotions are involved...
I've noticed that you have a beautifully thin wrist.
I think this belongs to you. Please take it.
It'll put my mind at peace.
Stop by at 5, I'll be home.
A patient left a message asking you
- to pick up your car. - Car? What car?
She said that you would know what she meant.
The car.
Yes, of course, thank you.
Stop by at 5, I'll be home.
Hyun-woo!
- Actually I wanted to... - I kept calling...
- Go ahead. - No, you first.
So what's up?
I... I've been thinking about a career change.
So I will probably move to...
This is where you've been hiding? You're here too!
Hyun-woo had something to tell me...
No, no... It's nothing...
What were you saying?
Did you see Mr. Jhung? I think he's over there.
One second.
What is going on?
- A mustache... - You took a cab here right?
You told me not to bring my car...
Did you get a new car?
Could you use that car for awhile?
That car?
I'll explain everything later. Just take it.
I never imagined my life would get this fucked up.
What a pleasant surprise!
Didn't know you were stopping by.
Jin-hyuck.
I love him. We're going to leave together.
We're going to reclaim the time we've lost.
Reclaim the time you've lost?
Is that from some TV mini series?
Reclaim the time you've lost...
Even in this situation, you are as cliché as ever.
What about Minsuk?
Your beloved wealthy doctor husband?
Don't you see how we live?!
Isn't this what you wanted?
Enough money, social status, a smart man with humor?
When you were getting married, you never mentioned Jin-hyuck.
Because Jin-hyuck had no money back then?
Back then there was no Jin-hyuck!
Jin-hyuck wasn't even in the country!
And even without Jin-hyuck, this marriage was over.
I no longer know the person I live with.
It's been like that for ages.
He can fix his patients but never fix himself.
By exploiting people's vanity he became vanity itself.
It seems like he has no soul.
He disgusts me.
So he made some money in a world where vanity is the norm!
Then what about you?
If Minsuk's family money and social status
got you to marry,
then why do you think he married you?
You really don't know...
You are the true vanity of Minsuk.
Your innate talent for social climbing
and gold-digging...
You...
You are the ultimate vanity of Minsuk!
Minsuk's family still has more money.
A whole lot more than Jin-hyuck.
Choose wisely.
What are you trying to tell me?
Hey.
He may seem like trash to you,
but he's still my friend.
He's far from perfect!
But he is trying and struggling to get better!
Then what about me?
Where were you?
when he was drunk and mingled with all sorts of women?
You know what I found in our study today?
Crumpled tissue hardened with his sperm.
Me? I'm not even worth that tissue in a glass!
What did you do?
When our unstable marriage was falling apart?!
When I was desperately trying to hold it together?
Where were you? So, he is your friend?
I'm your sister! Your blood sister!
Sometimes when I see you with him,
I can't believe that we are blood related.
I... I'm sorry.
I... have nothing to say.
Still, if you are going to leave Minsuk, tell him yourself.
Don't just walk away.
Isn't that the least a person can do?
Is this why you are still in the country?
What's the problem?
I'm the problem.
Do what you can for now...
Where are you headed, big shot?
Later...
You fucking running away?
I'm all fucked up!
Out of all the women, you had to choose her?
Soo-yeon, she's coming with me. She's my woman.
I saw Minsuk at a church...
Since he lost faith in a friend,
I guess he had to put his faith in God!
Hyun-woo!
Can't you see? What the fuck are we doing?
It's not easy.
But Soo-yeon is the end of my journey.
Don't you understand!
You lost your fucking mind...
What can a person trust, If not another person?
The government?
The prosecutors?
Money?
All we have is each other to trust.
When you can't trust anybody, you end up doubting yourself.
I can't live like that anymore.
I refuse to live like that.
I envy you.
You really found the right one.
Let's grab a drink sometime, and we'll go see some elephants.
You are a meaningful individual to someone out there.
Come and rescue me!
I hear you.
Where is ward 32?
That way...
Would you like some water?
Come with me!
Whether we drink water or wine,
let's get out for some fresh air!
You shouldn't be here at this hour...
Let's talk outside of the hospital. Like normal people.
Can I take your picture?
Dressed like this?
Well... I mean... you look fine to me.
Shall I take it off?
No... There's no need for that.
I'll just take it.
I think we're being followed.
What? By who?!
Let's go faster.
Okay. But where to?
I would like to take a shower first.
A shower... a shower is nice.
Aren't you going to shower?
Shower...
You weren't sleeping?
Sleeping?
I have to return before it gets too late.
The Han...River?
I have a secret.
I don't want to lie to you.
Anything said between a doctor and a patient is
totally confidential.
I want to tell you about myself.
Please do.
I want to know everything, everything about you.
The truth is I'm not from here.
I am a special agent of the Korean interim government
in the year 2088 A.D.
During the Sino-US War which began in 2079,
lethal virus called KSD was spread in Korea.
The KSD paralyzes...
male reproductive capabilities
The scarier fact is that KSD has no known cure.
Listen carefully!
We don't have much time.
The problem is that this virus is
only limited to the Korean race.
That's why the name KSD, the Korean Sterile Disease.
To prevent this natural genocide,
our interim government sacrificed
numerous agents to discover
the 79 year-cycle time-slip spot
and that's how I was sent to 2009.
My mission is simple.
To bring back superior DNA male sperm inside my body.
Tonight, I accomplished my mission
and now I must go back.
Are we there yet?
From 2050's, energy crisis and global warming dried up
the Aral and the Dead Sea.
Polluted subterranean water led to a global shortage of
drinking water. The scarcity of resources
led to the Sino-US War in the Korean Peninsula.
Domestically, rapid decline in birth rate destroyed
the nation's productivity and brought on many socio-economic changes.
With no demand for Korean education,
most Korean elites moved to English or
Chinese speaking countries.
The gap between the rich and the poor becomes more extreme
than you can imagine.
So the hopeless mass becomes obsessed with soccer.
By the way, Korea wins the World Cup in 2042.
Look! Do you see that?! It's full moon tonight!
In a few moments, when the temperature goes below 21.2°C,
I will position myself at the time-slip spot by the river.
Hyun-woo,
thank you.
And I love you.
You thought you weren't an important person.
But that's not true at all.
The future of our people depends on you.
You are our national symbol and you are Abraham.
That's why I'm in 2009. Using the time-slip spot
that can only be used once in 79 years.
We could have changed a lot of our history,
but we decided to come for your sperm.
To save our people from extinction,
You and I are here
But... why me?
Why not?
I don't think
I'm a dominant specimen.
I... I have hereditary baldness,
learning disorder, flatfeet,
I have tons of handicaps. So why me?
You are precious.
The purpose and reason of your existence
is our hope.
Hyun-woo, there are no such thing as a coincidence,
And you and I are no accident.
You don't... believe me?
No. I believe you.
I really do.
But we just met... how can we...
I'm sorry.
Everything I've said tonight is true.
Don't go! Please don't go!!!
Dr. Jang! Dr. Jang!!
Dr. Jang!
Dr. Jang!!
No wait! Dr. Jang.
Please, Dr. Jang!
Dr. Jang!!
Please, Dr. Jang!
Dr. Jang! I want to talk to you!
Dr. Jang!
Dr. Jang...
He is coming with Soo-yeon to see me.
I'm going to kill him.
Kill him, spare him...I don't care.
You know the difference between a whore and a wife?
Whores don't mix bodily fluids. Since it's a transaction.
So I always thought a wife was better than a whore.
But from some point on,
my wife stopped exchanging fluids with me.
Then I finally realized...
In essence, she as a bought deal too.
Did you swallow it?
Did You!
Of course. Because, we weren't a transaction!
What the fuck did you say?
Soo-yeon Choi!!
Say it again!
Motherfucker!
Did you enjoy screwing my wife?
Is it okay... if I kill you?
Yeah.
But that wouldn't change a thing.
Let him be.
It's his routine when he's drunk.
Then the next day he forgets everything.
What?
You always have to get everything?
At whatever the fucking cost?
I'm sorry...
You made your point, calm down.
Like you have a say in this?
You did nothing while your 2 friends screwed your sister.
Why? Why her?
- Who are... - She's dead!
Why her?
Why her!
Treat her like trash!
Die!
Pneumothorax.
His lung is punctured.
It's filling up with blood.
He can't live.
Can't live.
Fuck...
Hey, you know where we can get rid of this.
Fuck, why don't you think with me?!!
I guess he's not hungry...
What the fuck!
He's just sniffing and not even taking a bite.
I guess he's not hungry...
What are we going to do? We can't bring it back up.
Fuck, why don't you think with me?
Fuck...
Okay... We're gonna be okay.
Help me.
Listen! He died of a brain concussion.
Then what about Jin-hyuck?
Jin-hyuck?
Let's take care of this first.
Come on! Push!!
Get a hold of yourself!
- What are you doing? - I... I can't do this.
What's the matter with you?
It's just some concussion and bruises!
Fuck!!
It was an accident!!
No... I can't... no way...
Help me out here man, I beg you!
If there's no body then there is no crime!
You think I'm crazy? I'm not crazy!
It's just a fucking nightmare! It'll be over soon!
I don't know...
It's just a fucking dream!
I'm not fucking crazy!
- If you're not crazy, then help! - I'm not fucking crazy!
I...I can't...
Don't worry too much.
If there's no body then there's no crime.
I'm sorry.
We have a missing person and some questions...
Can we come in?
You know who we're looking for?
Where is Peng Bo-hyun?
Peng... who?
Do you still deny knowing her?
She's on trial for fraud and
in confinement for schizophrenia.
Luckily, her doctor recognized this man.
Where is she?
Peng Bo-hyun is a criminal.
JANG Min-jung... It's Dr. Jang...
Dr. Jang?
The doctor's gown!
Who the hell is Dr. Jang?
You see, when she first came to our hospital...
She was out of control...then she was given a doctor's gown
which made her comfortable
When she felt 'equal' with her doctor...
she became more stable...
Dr. Jang Min-jung is probably some resident...
Okay... I understand.
So Mr. Choi, thought she was a doctor?
Damn... she caused problems
at her previous hospital pretending to be a doctor...
She received so much treatment
and knows enough psychology that she could...
- fool you as a real doctor... - That's enough.
Where is she now?
She's in the future...
Where?
She asked me to give her a ride to the airport...
It's a night flight so we can leave after dinner...
Soo-yeon...
Let's start over.
As a family...
It's not healthy for the baby.
How long have you known?
Don't even think about abortion.
We even planned of adopting a child...
It's our baby.
Soo-yeon...
I love you.
The evenings can get pretty chilly over there,
I'll pack some windbreakers for us.
It's our baby...
Our baby.
Didn't have to bring it today...
Want to come in?
No...
How's Soo-yeon?
She's packing.
We're going to Hawaii for a week to get some fresh air.
You guys are unbelievable...
Both of you... are really something...
A second honeymoon?
It's really hard...
for me to believe that she and I are blood-related.
Wait...
Let me take you home!
The unimaginable has happened in the heart of the city.
A dead body was found on top of a city bus,
creating major congestion.
We'll go live to the scene.
When I stepped on the brakes,
a person's arm covered my view.
And there was this bloody body.
According to the police,
the deceased is identified as the manager of an actress
Hyun-woo, take a look! who committed suicide...
Hey! You've got to see this! Everything's okay!
Would you fucking listen?
No one knows!
It's a total accident! Nothing's going to happen to us!
And Jin-hyuck's car was probably stolen.
No one knows! We're fine!
Jin-hyuck...
was that really an accident?
You fucker look at me straight!
Now I see... at last...
Fuck.
You were there with me.
- You're an accomplice. - Yeah.
I know. I helped you kill him.
What?
It's all a lie...
It's all a lie.
How can you fuck me over like this?
Get moving!
Yes, thank you for calling.
How can I help you?
I...
Yes?
Can... I file a... missing person report here?
A person is missing.
Are you family?
No. A friend. Please help.
Name?
Hyun-woo Choi.
The missing person is... Hyun, woo, Choi
No... no.
What?
It's Jin-hyuck.
- Jin-hyuck Sah... - I see... Jin-hyuck Sah.
Do you know his Citizen ID Number?
I think he was born in '76 or '75.
Jin-hyuck Sah...
No such a person.
No one by that name.
There's no Jin-hyuck Sah born in '76 or '75.
That can't be...
Maybe in '74?
There is no one by that name in any year.
And Jin-hyuck Sah is not a common name.
He's an emigrant, maybe an American citizen.
Look, I can't find an American here.
You can register his American name with us...
and go to US embassy...
I don't know his American name...
Don't know any other name...
Sir, you are his friend, right?
Please look him up again...
I can't find him.
Please help...
Please...
Can't help you.
I wanted to see you.

You missed the time-slip spot
that only comes around every 79 years?
What are we going to do?
Where are we?
We should go.
Towards the future.
Searching for the elephant.
