In the 1980s, Gong Ji-chul ( Jang Ki-yong ) was a lone wolf who defies his evil father and an elite medical student in the present.

In the 1980s, Jung Ha-eun ( Jin Se-yeon ) was the owner of a used bookstore "Old Future". Unfortunately, she has suffered congenital cardiomyopathy and could die at any moment. In the present-day, she is forensic medical examiner working in NFS who uncovers the skeletal remains of the nameless, and restores their stories to them.

In the 1980s, Cha Hyung-bin ( Lee Soo-hyuk ) was a detective who loves only one person and in the present is a prosecutor who believes in a "criminal gene".

Notes [ edit ]

  1. ^ a b In order to circumvent Korean laws that prevent commercial breaks in the middle of an episode, what would previously have been aired as single 70 minute episodes are now being repackaged as two 35 minute episodes, with two episodes being shown each night with a commercial break between the two.
