Times (Taimjeu / 타임즈)

A year has passed, but the memories are so vivid.

In a single day, everything changed.

Why would my dad die all of a sudden?

I'm reporter Lee Jin Woo from Times.

I never agreed to an interview.

Hello?

Let's do the interview already.

It's 2020 here.

And you're in 2015.

Hello, I'm Seo Ki Tae.

Mr. Seo will die?

Please save my father, Jin Woo.

As soon as this is over, you'll both live.

Both my father, and you, Jin Woo.

How...

It really has changed.

A hit-and-run?

So you're telling me people will keep trying to kill your dad?

Please follow my father.

To see how the incident was fabricated...

And who fabricated it, right?

Some guy was dressed just like Seo Ki Tae.

Did you lose him?

Ms. Seo. Hello?

What if they changed their plans again?

Han Do Kyung.

Ms. Kim, I... - Why are you trying...

to change the past?

How meaningless.

Don't rely on Jin Woo anymore.

I made it that way.

Who ordered you to kill me?

I'll get you out of here.

It's Team Leader Han Do Kyung of Ma Un Police Station.

The culprit has changed.

Are you certain it's Do Kyung that I know?

The only one who can change the past...

is you, reporter Lee Jin Woo.

What's happening?

What on earth is going on? - What is that?

You were right.

Geun Woo didn't commit suicide.

But he was murdered.

And I've been keeping it from you all this time.

What... What do you mean?

You're making a fool of yourself right now.

That jerk whose life you saved twice.

That jerk...

Dad.

He killed Geun Woo.

The presidential candidate of the Democratic People's Party,

Seo Ki Tae.

Seo Jung In played you.

This isn't right, Jin Woo.

If you help him, Geun Woo would be heartbroken.

All because of what you did.

What's going on? You came all the way here.

I wanted to see you, Dad.

What's wrong? Did something happen?

I just...

wanted to see your face.

Why, this little...

Wait just a moment.

I'll wrap up my meeting and come to you right away.

All right. I'll wait.

Why do you think I wasn't able...

to reinvestigate the case despite all your pleas?

It's because the higher-ups kept blocking it.

The reason they covered it up as a suicide,

the reason they kept blocking attempts to reinvestigate,

they're all Seo Ki Tae.

You really must be in a rush.

Seeing as you you're even trying to pull Geun Woo into this.

What is it?

Did the guys you're taking orders from, tell you to say that?

Did they tell you to say that...

if you fail to kill Seo Ki Tae? - That's not it, you jerk.

Your younger brother was really murdered by...

Stop spouting nonsense! You jerk.

Why can't you come to your senses?

Jin Woo. - Don't say my name.

Who's the one giving you orders?

Just tell me that.

Who made you do that?

Who ordered you to kill Seo Ki Tae?

No one ordered me to do it.

Seo Ki Tae murdered Geun Woo.

That's a fact.

If no one made you do it,

why do you die in two days?

Jung In called me and told me,

that you commit suicide in exactly two days.

I don't know who's behind you,

but you're no different...

from Kim Jin Chul or Jo Kang Shik to people like that.

I'll catch the ones behind this,

so if you change your mind in the next two days, call me.

That way, you can live.

How do I make a phone call?

If you put in a request, you can make one tomorrow.

Who are you trying to call?

How much work do you have that you're always working late?

Is Seo Ki Tae the kind of boss who overworks and underpays?

He's not like that.

Although I don't know everything about him yet.

You're his aide, but you still don't know him after three years?

Jin Woo.

Look over there.

If you look over there,

you can only see the parts that are lit up.

No one knows what's in the unlit parts.

I think people are like that too.

What are you trying to say?

I see, so you're saying there are a lot of shady parts to Seo Ki Tae?

I don't know.

There really isn't anything wrong?

No.

I just had a lot of work these past few days,

and I'd become exhausted,

but now that I've seen your face, I feel fine.

I'm sorry for crying for no reason.

All right. That surprised me.

You never cry.

You must've had a lot of work.

I thought so too,

but in hindsight,

I think it was work that I needed to do.

Before that, I took things for granted,

though now I've realized how precious they are.

Within just a few days,

my daughter seems to have gone through a lot.

Tell me about it.

If you open up about it, maybe you'll feel better.

I can't tell you everything right now,

but I will later.

I also want to introduce you to some people.

I've met some really good people recently.

What kind of people?

They're a bit awkward or clumsy.

What courageous fool ate ox knee soup again?

Who is it?

I hope you end up looking like Park Bo Gum.

You will look like Park Bo Gum.

Who ordered an extra bowl of rice?

Don't look like an old fogey.

Why can't I get a loan?

We're a media company too.

Aren't you in the media industry?

Maybe it's because I met them while going through hard times,

but I've grown fond of them.

I know you'll like them too, once you meet them.

By any chance...

By any chance what?

You're not trying to get your friends jobs, right?

Of course not.

Why would I do that so blatantly?

All right, then it's fine.

Once my term is over,

set a date and introduce me.

I'm sure I'll like people that my daughter likes.

I will.

At that time, let's have a drink of soju,

and I'll tell you everything I couldn't up till now.

Charged with plotting and the attempted murder of Seo Ki Tae,

the Democratic People's Party candidate, Han Do Kyung...

is currently pleading the Fifth regarding his co-conspirators,

and all other details regarding the case.

Is Mr. Han the sole culprit?

Or are there others behind the scenes?

With several questions coming to the fore...

Come in.

It appears he fled the country.

I'm sorry, I should've noticed from the beginning.

It's all due to my inattention.

But I never suspected Secretary Choi would do that.

It might be for the better,

since you found out before entering the Blue House.

That's true.

Still, I believed we would be together for the long haul.

Make sure you're careful, and that word of Secretary Choi...

isn't leaked to the police.

Yes, don't worry.

Did you confirm who spoke to Han Do Kyung last?

According to the police, it's a number that doesn't exist.

It appears to have been erased as soon as the call was completed,

so we're trying to find out through the telecom companies.

The party suspects that Candidate Kim Seong Gu...

is behind his attempt.

There's something strange about this.

And I wonder about Secretary Choi too.

Can you find something out for me?

Could I meet Candidate Seo?

I only need a moment.

I was worried about you anyway, and was planning to call.

Are you hurt anywhere?

I'm fine. I went to the hospital to get checked out.

Are you all right?

I'm fine, thanks to you.

They say you have a relationship with someone who passes you by,

so we must have quite a deep relationship,
