Genius engineer Han Tae-sul's heroic feat and frozen time

The overwhelming technical prowess of a genius engineer shone brightly at the crossroads of life and death. Even amidst a sudden emergency on a flight where air pressure differences prevented even ramen from boiling properly, the world-renowned engineer Han Tae-sul maintained his characteristic logical demeanor. However, the peaceful flight turned into a tragedy instantly upon colliding with an unidentified object. In a desperate moment where the captain lost consciousness and the co-pilot fell into a panic, Han Tae-sul took matters into his own hands and headed to the cockpit.

A 3-minute struggle: reviving the plane with magnets

There were only 3 minutes left before the crash. To save the aircraft, which had fallen into an uncontrollable state due to total power failure, Han Tae-sul mobilized all his engineering knowledge. He chose an extreme yet sophisticated method, using magnets on the panel to induce an electric current. At a moment when everyone thought it was impossible, Han Tae-sul's calculated movements restored the plane's power and ultimately led to a safe landing. This dramatic incident, which saved the lives of 22 passengers, elevated him from a mere engineer to a hero of the era.

However, a cold reality awaited him behind the glamorous title of hero. As soon as Han Tae-sul, who had been declared brain-dead, regained consciousness, he was met with a board of directors aiming for management control. While he, the founder, stood at the threshold of life and death, the board threatened his position and brought the issue of management succession to the surface. Rather than the return of a hero being welcomed, his recovery became the spark for a power struggle.

A brother's final warning and lingering regret

The management dispute is not the only thing plaguing Han Tae-sul. What is eroding his soul is the guilt over the death of his brother, Taesan. On the monumental day of their NASDAQ listing, Taesan rushed to find Han Tae-sul to deliver a cryptic warning: that they were not alone in this world. At the time, Han Tae-sul dismissed his brother's words as drunken nonsense. No one expected it would be their final meeting.

Following Taesan's sudden death, Han Tae-sul's life has been defined by regret. He suffers from extreme mental anguish, to the point of experiencing hallucinations of his brother, and has turned to medication to soothe the pain. "Not a single day has passed without me thinking about that day," he confessed, revealing how precarious the life of this seemingly perfect genius truly is. The bag his brother left behind and his longing for the truth are once again pulling Han Tae-sul into a massive vortex of intrigue.

A mysterious USB: the pursuit of truth resumes

Just as he thought everything was over, the co-pilot from the plane accident sought him out. The co-pilot hurriedly left the scene after delivering testimony regarding the unidentified object and handing over a mysterious USB. With his brother's death, the plane accident, and the pressure from the board all intertwined, this USB is expected to become the decisive clue to unearthing the truth Han Tae-sul has been avoiding.
