You back, Mom?

She's not here. Not even today.

We're all doomed!

- We don't have to worry… - Hae-chan, it's okay.

…about asteroid collisions anymore.

Aw.

Scientists have worked hard to discover several ways

to alter where an asteroid goes.

One of the main ways is to create a direct collision

that will send the asteroid down another path.

And now, this particular asteroid is called Didymos.

It has a small moon that circles around it.

-"Didymoon." Have you heard of it? - Yeah!

Yeah, so, know what I got here?

I don't know!

Yeah, it's a probe. How have you never heard of that?

So what, know-it-all?

Three years ago, so in 2022,

this probe went into space for ten months and flew,

then crashed into Didymoon.

That's one way you can change the orbit of an asteroid.

And, you'll remember, I'm sure,

a small shift can make it miss the Earth.

Hae-chan, that makes you feel better, doesn't it?

The asteroid's coming!

It's gonna kill us all!

Isn't that just great!

Great! Just our luck!

Great!

"My older brother is blowing up a big balloon."

"Stop blowing. It looks like it's going to pop."

-We're all gonna die! -

-"I have butterflies." - Hear that? Wow!

Great!

Hey! We're gonna die! How fucking perfect!

201 DAYS UNTIL ASTEROID COLLISION

CHEONDONG MIDDLE SCHOOL

Se-kyung, what are you doing? You already broke your record today.

Look at that.

Take a break and play with us, huh?

You're training too hard!

You should sit down.

She's not in the mood to play ball or coach anyone.

You know she's itching to be somewhere else.

VACANT

Hello there. I'll be back, Yun-sang.

Attention, please. This is Sejong International Airport.

We are currently experiencing delays for the flights to safety zone countries.

We kindly request that passengers wait

while paying attention to the announcement.

Everyone, this way.

-Hi, excuse me. -Yeah?

I have a son who's leaving today with his family.

-I'm worried. -Uh-huh.

I've heard that there aren't actually any supplies in the bunkers

and that the evacuees will be abandoned.

That's never gonna happen, sir. It's all fake news, okay?

Hey! Yeah. All of this is under the international treaty, okay?

I wouldn't worry about it.

-Are you going to Nigeria? -Not us. My son's the one leaving.

Okay, then leave. You really shouldn't be out here.

Come on, let's find them.

… Sejong International Airport…

Ah, there they are.

Jae-won! Over here! Jae-won!

South Korea! South Korea!

Mom, here! Mom, right here!

Ah!

-Please, you didn't have to come. -Oh, you're here.

We've been looking for you everywhere.

Oh, thank goodness.

They said we can't bring these on board.

How are you supposed to live without deonjang and gochujang?

-You can't bring any of these? -It's the rule.

What about this, then? You have to bring this with you.

No, no, no, really.

-Su-dong, you'll need this more here. -We're fine over here.

-It'll be harder overseas. -You should be the one to have them.

Take these. You gotta make sure you all eat well.

Our position has changed, I need to tell you. We're refugees now.

And it's gonna be okay.

- I asked about the rumors. -There is nothing we can do now.

They're false, okay?

Don't listen to any of that. And it's all just a bunch of nonsense.

They'll be fine, so let's send them off with a smile.

It'll all be okay.

-We promise to come get you. - All right. It's okay.

- We'll come back for you. - Don't worry about us.

We're happy just knowing you'll be safe. Don't worry.

Ha-yul.

Be careful with your parents, okay? I hope you'll make some friends too.

Jin-seo, don't cry.

You're gonna do well, okay?

It's good that things are a lot calmer now.

It'll make your trip less chaotic.

The people in line aren't angry.

They actually look kind again.

Yeah, it was pretty scary for a while there.

Yeah, things are calmer now.

So we should leave, don't you think?

-Just a minute. - Hmm?

Are you positive I won't die if I leave?

It's important that I know.

Mm-hmm.

Ha-yul. Hurry up. Let's go. Come on. Hurry.

-Let's go already! - Uh…

This way.

- Oh… - Ms. Jin!

- Oh. - Ha-yul!

So-min.

-Um… - What is this?

You're giving me a love letter?

Read it when you're alone, okay?

Uh…

Ha-yul! It's time, come on.

Hey, hey. Take care, okay?

Come on, let's go!

May we have your attention, please.

It is important to remain calm…

You're okay. Come here. It's okay.

Please have a safe trip.

Mmm.

It's okay.

Due to the delay in the repair of communication facilities

that were destroyed during the asteroid crisis,

inconveniences are expected to continue.

To minimize the disruption caused by the suspension of public transportation,

city hall is operating a free shuttle bus to Seoul four times a day.

Distribution of emergency supplies that were previously unavailable

will resume today…

- This way, sir. -

Watch your step.

- Oh, you're here, Ms. Jin. - Morning.
