00:00This is the story of a man named Park Kang, a famous actor who was on the rise.
00:04Park Kang at that time was reaching the peak of his career to the point his mother can buy
00:07anything anywhere she wanted in the world. He achieved both wealth and his career making him
00:12boastful about his fortune. Kang lives in a luxury apartment, a really expensive one.
00:17Everywhere he goes he is always accompanied by his manager named Jo Yoon. Back then Jo Yoon was
00:22also an actor but because he didn't get a good role he finally decided to quit acting and then
00:27became Kang's manager to make a living. He was in charge of managing Kang's affairs and schedule.
00:32One night Kang attended an event for filmmakers where he was awarded as the best male actor.
00:37On the stage Kang gave a speech saying he didn't expect to be able to be at this point since he
00:42started his career as an actor knowing he started barely having anything and came from a remote place.
00:47In a different place a girl named Seo Yeon watched Park Kang receive an award on TV.
00:52Seo Yeon was Kang's ex when he was poor. She just came back from New York to open his
00:56art exhibition in Seoul. That night on Christmas Eve December 24th Jo Yoon was about to go home to
01:03spend time with his family but Kang asked him to stay and accompany him to a bar the same bar where
01:07he used to drink a lot before becoming a famous actor. There they chatted while remembering their
01:12past. Jo Yoon and Kang had actually auditioned together for a role back in the day until they
01:17entered the final round. Unexpectedly the fortune goddess was on Kang's side as he managed to win the
01:22audition and became a famous actor while Jo Yoon stopped acting and then became Kang's manager.
01:28Jo Yoon remembered that if only Kang didn't pass the audition he might have had a family together
01:32with Seo Yeon and lived happily. Upon hearing that Kang remembered how he used to dump Seo Yeon
01:37in this bar 10 years ago so they split up Kang pursues his acting career while Seo Yeon goes to New York
01:43to deepen his art knowledge. When they left the bar Kang still wanted Jo Yoon to accompany him to drink at
01:48another bar but because it was Christmas Eve Jo Yoon wanted to be with his family and home so he told
01:53Kang to take a taxi and go home alone. When in the taxi Kang who was drunk chatted with the driver.
02:00This driver felt lucky to have such a famous actor as his passenger on Christmas Eve.
02:04The driver assumed that Kang must be living his dream and that he must be happy for having
02:08everything a man could ask for but Kang replied that the driver didn't know what he felt. The driver then
02:13replied that being rich and famous was not a guarantee for happiness and feeling content in this
02:18world. Suddenly, as if the driver knew what was in Kang's heart, he asked a question that doesn't make
02:23sense. He asked what will Kang do if he was given a chance to change the past. The driver even knew that
02:28Kang was thinking of changing the past when he broke up with Seo Yeon and said that he could help to turn
02:33that thought into reality. The next morning Kang woke up on the wooden floor of Amane's house. He was utterly
02:39confused to find himself somewhere he didn't know and to see the sight of two kids in front of him
02:43calling him father. He even got more shocked to see a figure he knew so well. The long lost love of
02:49his life, Seo Yeon is his wife. Kang was explained that he was in his own house and the two children
02:54were his children. Seo Yeon also thought that Kang had not yet sobered up from his drunkenness because
02:58he drank too much last night. Kang still had not processed what happened to him that morning.
03:03He tried to contact Jo Yoon but he couldn't be contacted. Kang decided to go back to his apartment.
03:08He casually went inside and confused the security guard because he was not recognized as one of the
03:12residents. Kang casually went up to the top floor and tried the combination to open the door lock
03:17but somehow it didn't work. He was surprised to see someone open the door to his apartment.
03:22He thought that a thief had broken into his apartment. He then broke into it and made a
03:27ruckus so the security guards had to secure him. The atmosphere became chaotic because the owner of
03:31the apartment thought that Kang was his wife's lover. Kang tried to explain that he is a famous actor
03:36even though no one knew him. Shortly after, Kang ended up at the police station. He was angry and
03:41confused. The police explained that the apartment was not his as written in the database. Kang was left
03:47in shock to find everything he had lost in just a single night. Kang was even more embarrassed when
03:52Seo Yeon came to pick him up. Seo Yeon said that she was Kang's wife but Kang said that she was not his
03:56wife. Of course Seo Yeon was angry and thought that Kang was asking for a divorce. The police calmed her
04:01down and said that Kang seemed a bit confused because he had claimed to be an actor. The two of them
04:06then went home. Kang was still wondering if it was true that he married Seo Yeon. Irritated with his
04:11husband asking about their relationship again and again, Seo Yeon once again gave Kang a slap to wake
04:16him up. At that moment, Kang saw a taxi passing by. He then remembered the incident that night. After
04:22drinking with Jo Yeon, he took a taxi and talked to the driver and after that, he ended up there.
04:27When he arrived home, Seo Yeon scolded him again for talking about nonsense. Kang then got to know his
04:32daughter, Rohi. He told her that he had lost his memory. He couldn't remember his life with them.
04:38At that time, Seo Yeon said that he was going to go see his friends after his art class so he told
04:42Kang to look after the kids. Of course, Kang didn't want to and told Seo Yeon to hire a babysitter instead.
04:48Listening to that, Seo Yeon thought that Kang was still drunk. Moreover, the rent for the house was
04:53not paid yet so Seo Yeon told Kang to stop drinking and help her to pay the bills. Kang still wanted to
04:58find answers about yesterday's taxi driver so Kang took the children with him to find the answer.
05:03He then went to the taxi company to ask about the taxi he took on Christmas Eve but sadly, after telling
05:08the staff there the characteristic of the taxi, the staff there told him that there was no taxi that
05:13resembles that characteristic. To get information about his new life, Kang asked some things to his
05:18twin children. Rohi said that Kang was an actor but he was not famous. Rohi then showed Kang who was on a TV
05:24show. Kang was surprised to see himself playing a cameo role there. At night, Seo Yeon told Kang to
05:30tell her about what happened this morning when he interrupted someone's apartment. Kang then explained
05:34that he actually come from a different world after taking a strange taxi last night. The life he had
05:39with Seo Yeon was a life he didn't choose and the taxi driver gave it to Kang so that Kang ended up like
05:44now. Seo Yeon clearly thought that what Kang said what nothing but nonsense. When Kang was about to
05:50seek. He didn't feel comfortable sleeping with Seo Yeon after what happened to him and her in his
05:54reality. After sleeping all alone all the time he now ended up sleeping with the one he used to love.
06:00His day with his new family, the family he never thought he would have finally started. He had to
06:04sleep together, eat together, deal with his twin children, and had to be a father figure and a husband
06:09at home. Kang didn't have an emotional connection with the twins and he still couldn't adapt to his new
06:14life. It's a repetitive and boring life for him. One night, Seo Yeon reminded Kang that he
06:20had a shooting schedule with Mystic TV for a movie. Mystic TV was a TV channel with low ratings and bad
06:25movies. Even though he performed well and his family was proud of him, he still thought that the
06:29channel was trash. At that time, his friend Woo-hee called him and asked him to help promote her
06:34theatrical performance. It turned out that apart from being on TV, Kang in this life was also making
06:39money through theater shows. When they finally met Kang asked Woo-hee why he couldn't contact Jo Yoon.
06:45What he said that Jo Yoon was currently down to promote his brand new movie, after it was
06:49proven, it turned out that Jo Yoon, who was his manager in his reality, was a famous actor in
06:54this reality. Kang just realized that his career was swapped with Jo Yoon. One day, Kang tried to go
07:00to the agency office where Jo Yoon worked by breaking through. He went upstairs and finally managed to
07:05meet Jo Yoon, who still recognizes him. He then invited Kang to eat together. From the talk, Kang got
07:10information that Jo Yoon could become an actor because Kang withdrew during the final audition for the sake of
07:15chasing So Yoon to the airport. That's why Jo Yoon appeared and became an actor in this reality.
07:20After having lunch with Jo Yoon, Kang then went to catch up with So Yoon in her gallery.
07:25From Jo Yoon's words, Kang knew that he deliberately missed the chance to audition for the sake of chasing
07:29So Yoon. Different from the reality, he came from where Kang instead decided to break up with So Yoon to
07:35pursue his career. Since then, his treatment of So Yoon had changed. Kang asked what would have
07:40happened if So Yoon went to New York 10 years ago, but So Yoon said that she preferred her current
07:44life with Kang and their twins. Short story, one night, Woo Hee and Kang held their theatrical
07:49performance. Jo Yoon, who was present that night, fell asleep because he was sleepy watching the show.
07:55After that, all of them were treated to dinner by Jo Yoon. Jo Yoon seemed interested in Woo Hee,
08:00who and his other life actually liked each other. Jo Yoon even left his credit cards for them to use to pay
08:06for what they eat as much as they wanted. At Kang's house, he was partying with So Yoon and her friends
08:11with the food he brought from the restaurant earlier. Even though Kang is an actor who is not
08:15well known, he is quite popular among the ladies in the neighborhood. The next day in the morning,
08:20their house was visited by Kang's mother, who in this reality was pretty much different from the
08:24mother in his reality. His mother was fussy, especially after she found out that Kang had resigned from
08:29his current job. After visiting Kang and her grandchildren, Kang then took her to the terminal to go home.
08:34She prayed that her son could get a good role like Jo Yoon and gave him some money. She ordered him
08:39to treat his family and also buy flowers for his father's grave. Her request was immediately carried
08:44out by Kang, but as usual, Kang didn't want to go to his father's grave because it turned out that Kang
08:49had bad memories of his father, so he never wanted to come to his father's grave. At another time,
08:55Kang went for an audition. His acting was actually decent, but because the auditioner knew that Kang was
09:00Jo Yoon's best friend and often hung out with him, they instead told Kang to persuade Jo Yoon to play
09:05in his film. He then met Jo Yoon and told him about it. Jo Yoon was surprised to hear that moreover,
09:10the fact was that he deliberately didn't take the audition because he wanted Kang to get the world to
09:14be able to make money for his family. Jo Yoon understand that Kang couldn't spend his time taking
09:19auditions after auditions, and because Jo Yoon needed someone he trusted to work for him,
09:24he decided to offer Kang a job as his manager. Kang somehow refused the offer because he felt that his
09:29life had completely changed and that he was disappointed with what he had. The next day,
09:34Kang had trouble contacting Seo Yoon. He also found an announcement that she wouldn't mix up classes
09:39anymore at her gallery. Another problem came when he and his twin children were playing at the
09:43playground. That afternoon, Ro, he was asking about the signatures that actors usually give to fans.
09:49Kang then showed her how to sign. When she saw it, Ro, he prayed that one day her father would be able
09:54to sign autographs for other people like famous actors too. Suddenly, Ro Ha had an accident while
10:00playing alone. They immediately rushed him to the hospital. Shortly after Seo Yoon came, it was
10:05discovered that she had worked at a convenience store. Kang became offended because Seo Yoon didn't
10:09tell him and made him look pathetic as the head of the family. Kang then checked his ATM and found out
10:15that he had no money in it. Kang was disappointed with him in that reality because he couldn't do anything
10:20for the past 10 years. Knowing that he had no other choice, he was forced to accept the offer
10:24from Seo Yoon to work as his manager. With his experience seeing Seo Yoon as his manager, he started
10:29his work by preparing agendas, serving Seo Yoon in the shooting area, and even protecting him from the
10:34paparazzi. Kang also didn't hesitate to give advice to Seo Yoon regarding salary requests for his films or
10:40advertisements. Kang uses his 10 years of experience so that Seo Yoon can make even more money.
10:45Sometimes, Kang also helped Seo Yoon to read the script to the point that Kang got carried away
10:50with emotions because he hadn't read his script for a long time. In his reality, he was too lazy to
10:55memorize the script. Seo Yoon took too much time learning the script, making the extras couldn't
11:00stand waiting for him and resigned. In the end, the director decided to offer the role to Kang because
11:05he knew that Kang was an actor. Of course, Kang wanted to do it. Kang did a good job. His action on riding
11:11the horseback even won praise from the director. Instead, Joo Yoon, the main actor, could only ride
11:17a horse with shooting properties. Different from his respective life, this time Kang did his job as an
11:22actor with totality and professionalism. Even his family at home was amazed by his performance. Kang
11:27also starting to enjoy his life as the head of the family. He loves his family more than before. His life
11:32was much better than before. He could eat comfortably and pay bills on time because his income was already
11:37stable. But apparently, this changed him and caught Seo Yoon's attention, especially when Kang took them
11:42to Joo Yoon's apartment, which Joo Yoon lent them to live in. Seo Yoon didn't agree with the plan. She
11:48thought that money had changed Kang completely. Kang wanted to forget and leave their small house where
11:53they started everything, leaving a lot of memories with the twins. She didn't want to lose that by moving
11:58to this apartment. On the other hand, Kang just wanted to give the best for his wife and children but
12:02unfortunately, Kang still thought like him in his previous life. For Seo Yoon, what they had was not
12:08the most important thing. Because of that, they started arguing. At night, Kang, who couldn't sleep,
12:14went to his children's room. He realized that in his current life, luxury was not something that must
12:19be pursued. Kang immediately learned from his mistakes in his past life that despite being far away
12:24from a luxurious life, but this condition makes him happy instead of being rich while living alone
12:29without a family. Days, weeks, and months passed and Kang managed to move on and forget about his
12:33old life. He even managed to finish his role in the drama he played with Joo Yoon impressively.
12:39Kang also had many fans and even the director praised his good performance. So far, the director
12:43also said that Joo Yoon and Kang should switch positions instead because Joo Yoon is more suitable
12:48to be a manager than Kang. Kang also got a special interview session that catapulted his name from
12:53an extra actor to a manager and from a manager to a professional actor. His achievement also made
12:58his family happy, but even so, Kang still worked as a manager for Joo Yoon. When Joo Yoon received the
13:04Best Actor award, he surprisingly thanked Kang for his support because of that he knew that he wouldn't
13:08be able to achieve that if it was not because of him. Joo Yoon also said that Kang was a better actor
13:14than himself. To celebrate the award, Joo Yoon asked Kang to drink at the bar. He told Kang that there
13:19was a role vacancy for the next drama, but the shooting was done overseas for three months. Kang refused the
13:24offer because he didn't want to leave his family for that long. Kang preferred to find another job
13:29instead. At that moment, Joo Yoon finally said that he fell in love with Woo Hee, the tomboyish girl.
13:35He invited seeing Kang living with his family. Joo Yoon even willingly swapped his life with Kang.
13:40When they finished, Woo Hee picked Joo Yoon up while Kang chose to leave in a taxi.
13:44That night was Christmas Eve, just like a year ago when Kang's life switched. When he entered the taxi,
13:49the driver then reminded him that there was only a little time left and Kang would return to his
13:52original life. That word suddenly made him remember his past life, but Kang didn't want to go back and
13:58wanted to stay. Sadly, he couldn't. He had to return to his reality when the time came. Kang was angry
14:04because the driver was going around arranging his life when suddenly, the car was stopped. It was at
14:08that very moment when Kang found out that the driver was his diseased father. His father told him that he
14:13regretted not spending time with Kang because he was too focused on work. That moment became emotional
14:18because, in fact, Kang never talked to his father until the day his father died. Kang then returned
14:23home. He immediately hugged his children tightly. At night, he put them to sleep while staring at
14:28their innocent faces because he knew that by the next morning, he wouldn't be able to meet them
14:32again. After that, Seo Yoon showed Kang's picture with his father when he was just a kid. Their
14:37relationship wasn't special, but the incident in the taxi had changed Kang's view of how valuable the
14:42time with family was. He ended his last day by sleeping with his wife while trying to let go of that sweet
14:47moment he just realized. The next morning, Kang woke up in his luxurious apartment, feeling sad after
14:52all the good life he had was taken away from him. At the same time, Joo Yoon appeared. Kang then asked
14:58about Seo Yeon, who was holding an exhibition in the city. Joo Yoon confirmed and provided information
15:03that today was the last day of the exhibition. Kang was surprised to hear that. He initially thought
15:08that time had gone for a year, but it turned out that in his real life, only one day passed. Before he left,
15:13Kang told Joo Yoon to apply for another audition and that he would pay
15:17for it. Kang went to find the exhibition venue. When he arrived, he panicked because the event was
15:22finished and the staff was packing the paintings in there, but Kang was surprised when he saw a
15:27painting that he recognized. A painting with a picture of the house he lived in in his dream.
15:32Seo Yeon suddenly showed up. She asked why he was there. Without any hesitation, Kang asked how Seo Yeon
15:37come up with that painting. Kang then took Seo Yeon to a place where the same house in Seo Yeon's painting
15:42was seen. Kang eventually realized that even though it was a dream, it was the happiest moment in his
15:47life. Two years pass and Kang finally married Seo Yeon. They also had twin children whom they named
15:54Ro He and Ro Ha, but different from the one he had in his dream, this time, he would go through his life
15:59with Seo Yeon from the beginning.
