In the summer of 2015, the promise of youth who said, 'Let's meet again in 10 years,' was unexpectedly thwarted.
KBS2's documentary Three Days met young people enjoying a train trip to Tomorrow in its 2015 broadcast and captured a scene at the last filming location, the old Andong Station, where two female university students and the production team made a promise with a pinky swear, saying, 'Let's meet again here on Aug. 15, 2025.'
Thus, as 10 years have passed this year, the production team prepared a special edition, 'About Time,' and more than 200 citizens and broadcasting officials who had been waiting for this day gathered at the old Andong Station square.
However, around 7:37 a.m. on the 15th, a message appeared in the YouTube live broadcast chat saying, 'I will set off explosives in the old Andong Station square,' and the site was instantly enveloped in tension. The Gyeongbuk Provincial Police Agency urgently deployed officers from nearby precincts, the Andong Police Station's initial response team, and the police special forces to control the square and begin searching.
Due to the unexpected bomb threat, the long-awaited reunion was aborted just before it could take place. On social media and online communities, feelings of disappointment emerged with comments such as, 'I waited 10 years, and it's so frustrating,' 'Safety comes first, but it's really regrettable,' and 'I hope it can take place once again.'
Amid the abrupt end of the emotional re-creation brought about by a special promise, attention is focused on whether KBS will be able to push for the reunion scene again.
Meanwhile, a police official stated, 'No explosives have been found so far, but we are continuing the search as a precaution,' adding, 'We are tracking the commenter, including the possibility of false reports.'
