Episode 12

A few minutes later, Yunshang came with the priest.We briefly thought he was there to apologize to the parishioners, but that was not the case!His mental state is no longer normal and he cannot remember the mistakes he committed.He ascended the altar and began to address the group as he would a normal Sunday service.He then went off on a tangent, asking why things were happening the way they were, and asking Mr. Choi to beef up security in the town because it was getting too noisy.Everyone was shocked, but they still treated him politely.Sung Jae and Yun Sang hurriedly sent him home.

As the day of the asteroid impact approaches, villagers support each other.They had little food and medicine, and most wore thick clothing to avoid catching colds.They cope with feelings of helplessness in different ways.Jung-soon and Soo-dong tried to starve themselves to death, but later changed their minds.On good days, villagers would gather to play football as a diversion.

Jinseo and his father take Ha-yul in and help her hide from her father.Young-ji joins Sister Chae-hwan and Ming-yu in volunteering whenever needed.She meets Hyun Jae occasionally and they seem to like each other.Too bad the asteroid won't let their budding love blossom!

Soon, there were only 20 days left.The deputy mayor reminded people to stay indoors as child trafficking is rampant.The criminals, led by Officer Kim, are no longer hiding and carry out their business in broad daylight.To get on the last ship, they had to bring their children.

Unfortunately, Renya resigned from the army and said goodbye.She finally confided all her painful feelings to her mother, and they ended up not reconciling, but breaking up amicably.In Ah also said goodbye to Se Kyung and gave Yun Sang a loaded pistol.The weapon was to protect Se Kyung because In Ah knew she would be in trouble.Renya feels it's time to stop taking responsibility for everyone and do something for herself.She said goodbye and drove out of town.

She was one of the many who left, along with other villagers such as Meiling, Daehan, Ji-eun and her husband who also left the town.Time continued to pass and by the tenth day most streets and houses were empty.

The government continues to develop qualifications for entry into safe zones.Only Hai Can and Yu Can are qualified to go, and Guixiang is worried about whether she did the right thing and sends them away.Fighting back her grief, she packs the children's luggage with So-min, trying to convince them that this is the best choice.Shijing was also hesitant, but she still convinced Guixiang that the two children would have a better chance in the safe zone.

Jin-soo, Ha-yul, and So-min are hiding together, trying not to go out, while Officer Kim is looking for children to take away for the final shipment.He even shamelessly texted Xia Lu, asking her to bring her two friends and promising to treat them well.The kids try to hide this information from Se Kyung, but she’s already one step ahead of them.

Se-kyung teams up with Otoki to spy on Officer Kim and his men.Se Kyung realizes that she must step forward to save the children that Officer Kim took away.She slowly planned her attack, but it was likely a suicide mission.

She quietly collected information and prepared, but Yun Shang secretly monitored her.Before going on a suicide mission, Se-kyung goes to visit Mrs. Kim.The two women talked about different issues, and even though Mrs. Kim was sick, she listened to Se-kyung.Se-kyung admits that she sometimes thinks about what would have happened if something else had happened and feels like their choices have led them (humanity) to this point.

On the other hand, Yoon-sang talks to Sung-jae and he says that he feels at peace knowing that he will be with Se-kyung until the end.At this point, Yoon Sang knows the ending may not be an asteroid impact.

With only ten days left before leaving, Se-kyung attacks the gang before they leave.She took the pistol and bullets that In Ah gave to Yun Sang and headed to the port.At this point, we return to Yoon-sang’s nightmare, where he’s trying to chase her in the forest.A huge hole separates them, and Se-kyung slowly walks away.This could symbolize the darkness Yoon Sang has to venture into in order to be with her.Eventually, Yun Sang decides to chase her.He also made some Molotov cocktails and headed to the port.

As she drove toward what might be her end, she said goodbye to everything and everyone.Looking back, she realizes she missed out on a lot.Her farewell has a utopian feel to it.She imagined her lover in a perfect world, smiling and waving goodbye to her.

When she boarded the ship, she saw the criminals happily burning money and having parties.She shot and killed two people.Officer Kim drew his gun and they stood, briefly looking at each other.

The camera cuts to Yun Sang riding his bike as hard as he can, crying.He finally reached the ship, and the sound of a gunshot pierced the sky.We don’t know if Se Kyung killed Officer Kim, but the asteroid will hit the earth in 10 days!
