Nine: Nine Times Time Travel (Nine: Nine Time Travels / Nain: Ahob beonui Shiganyeohaeng / 나인: 아홉 번의 시간여행)

Are you cold?

You want to go to the hospital?

Hang on a bit.

I only have fever medicine at home.

Is there...

Min Young.

Min Young.

Min Young! Are you okay?

Min Young!

What are you doing?

Let's change and go to the ER.

No.

I'm not going. I'm going to stay here.

By the way...

It was at the ER that we had first met wasn't it?

- Wasn't it? - It was.

It was?

Long live everyone! Bang!

- What took you so long? - They found something. It's this room?

What's this terrible noise?

The new recruits are so funny.

Go in!

Min Young!

- What happened? - She fainted.

She's knocked out.

You came late and you beat up our new beautiful recruit!

I beat her up?

She's bleeding. She's completely knocked out.

Shouldn't we take her to the hospital?

- Park Sun Woo! You take her! - Me?

I just got here.

It was so fun until you came in. You ruined it! Get her to the hospital right now.

Bye.

Are you finally awake?

- Who are you? - Who am I?

- I'm your senior at work. - My senior?

I have never seen you.

Of course not! Because you were knocked out as soon as you saw me.

What's your name?

It's Joo Min Young.

Okay, Joo Min Young. It seems that you got the job while I was away for a trip.

You listen carefully. Do you know what type of people I hate the most?

People who can't control themselves when they are drunk. People like you.

You pulled my hair on our way here.

You threw up 3 times on my clothes.

You kept making fun of the taxi driver because he was bald.

You kept crying about getting a piggy-back-ride, and I hurt my back while carrying you.

You made the entire ER a mess.

You told everyone here that you're a reporter for CBM. You embarrassed us.

You're the worst.

Joo Min Young. I got you now.

Your work life isn't going to be fun now. You can look forward to it.

Okay.

What do you mean okay? Is that the best answer you could think of?

Are you that slow? How did you make it in here?

I'm sorry.

You're really good at talking. I like men who can talk well.

- What? - You're really glamorous.

Do you have a girlfriend?

I don't.

What an idiot. How did you get the job?

You called me an idiot didn't you?

Because you were an idiot.

I can remember everything.

Every word that you said.

It's really strange.

I don't know what this is.

But I miss it a lot.

I...

Are you awake?

How do you feel?

I remembered something else.

My step-father. He's a lawyer in Boston.

Is that right?

I think so, although I've never met him.

How?

I already have a father. What about my father?

Which one is the real one?

It was my mistake.

I made it that way.

I'm sorry.

What are you talking about? I don't know what you're saying.

You want to leave?

Leave where?

Where no one can find us.

If you ask me to live with you far away, I would gladly do it.

If you say that it's okay that we stay as family, I will just be a good uncle to you.

If you want to see me sometimes without anyone knowing...

I'm okay with that too.

I will do anything you like.

So which is it?

Let's take the meds again.

You need to fill up your stomach first. Wait here for a bit.

Did you get it?

Did I get it? Get what?

What I sent you.

- Have some snacks first. - Hey.

- What is this? - Oh that.

The police sent it last week.

I left it here because it belonged to you.

- It's mine? - They took all the evidence remember?

They sent it back because the investigation is over.

They had my stuff at the hospital?

- This is mine? - It's not yours?

It had your fingerprints on it.

The only evidence that didn't burn at the scene.

I have never seen it, but it has my fingerprints on it.

It has my fingerprints on it. But it's not mine. That means that it's yours right?

I will keep it well for 20 years.

But why aren't you coming to see me? If you were me, you would keep your word.

What is this? A movie scene? Why do you look so serious?

What's wrong? You got in trouble again?

Min Young is missing.

What?

I couldn't reach her for 24 hours.

I should tell the Chief right? What should I tell him?

What do you mean you couldn't reach her? Is she just ignoring your call?

Her phone is turned off.

I told Sun Woo. But I don't think he found her. He didn't call me back yet.

It's Sun Woo.

- Hello? - Hey.

- Can you come to my place? - Why?

- Min Young is sick. - Did he find her?

- Is Suh Joon next to you? - Huh?

Say that you don't know. Tell no one that Min Young is here.

- Okay. - What is it?

It's not about Min Young?

Huh? Where are you going?

Oh you're here. She's in my room. She just fell asleep.

She only had one meal. She has tenderness in her muscle.

You spent the night with her?

What happened? You said the best thing was to make her forget.

She remembers everything. Her memories get clearer as time passes.

It won't even take a few days for her to realize everything.

If I had turned my back on her, the only place she could go was the hospital.

I can't let that happen. It's all my fault.

She dwells on the past. When she wakes up, you should talk to her.

You're the only one I can count on. Thanks.

Where are you going?

I'm going to see Jung Woo.

Why are you going to see your brother? What are you going to do?

- There is no other way. - Then what are you going to do?

I thought that I should throw everything away and leave the country.

- What? - Once the rumor spreads, it's over.

The worst scandal in the world. We're reporters. We're not going to make it here.

You call that a plan? Throw away your family and work, and leave?

You think that will make you happy?

Probably not.

I know it's not the best way. But there is no other way.

- But still... - I said I thought of it.

- Until the incense sticks came back to me. - What?

This damn thing came back to me.

On its own. With such perfect timing.

Can you believe it?

It's me. Let me give you this shot. You're exhausted.

Where is Sun Woo?

Sun Woo?

Sun Woo...

He had to go somewhere for something urgent.

I'm going to be here, so don't worry.

You also knew Dr. Han?

That Uncle Sun Woo is not my uncle.

Yes, I knew.

That's good.

At least I'm not crazy.

Then why did you introduce a guy to me?

When you knew?

That's because...

I can't get married.

I shouldn't.

I'm already married. How can I get married again?

- Hello? - Are you going to use the incense again?

You were the one who threw it away in the fire saying that it was cursed.

There are times I need the curse.

Fool! It's the devil's work!

That's why it's back in your hands after you threw it away 20 years ago.

That incense is tempting you again.

It's not the first time you fell for the temptation and ruined your life.

Even your life span was shortened after burning one. Aren't you afraid of what will happen next?

I am afraid.

- I'm afraid to death. - Then don't use it.

Let's find a different way.

Perhaps Min Young can take care of herself once she gets her health back.

She won't be like that forever.

Do you know what I'm most afraid of?

I entered the God's realm to change things.

There have been changes to others' wills when I didn't change anything.

Min Young got her memories back when I didn't even want her to. The past me sent me the incense sticks.

He is tirelessly sending me messages.

He's asking me to come back. What if this is only the beginning?

What if other people start having their own wills?

I don't know what they are going to do or what will happen.

I'm not God. I can't predict or control what will happen.

I thought first that it was I who found the incense sticks and chose to use them.

Now I start believing that the incense sticks have found me and they have chosen me.

What does that mean?

I think the incense sticks came to me because there is something else for me to do.

So I decided to believe this:

It's given me the chance to bring things back to its course.

I don't know what will happen. It may betray us again.
