The Guardians of Time (Novelish Production)
시간의 수호자들Summary
(Novelish Production)
In modern-day Seoul, Kim A-rin, a quiet university student, begins to experience strange dreams filled with clocks, shadows, and voices calling her name. When her late grandfather’s old clock suddenly glows and reveals a hidden key engraved with the initials S.P., her life changes forever. Her grandmother, Park Sun-ja, reveals that A-rin’s grandfather, Kim Sung-pil, was once a Guardian of Time — a protector of the world’s temporal balance. Now, time itself has chosen A-rin as the next guardian. Guided by Kang Do-yoon, a mysterious man who appears whenever time freezes, A-rin enters the realm of Chronos Hall, a dimension where every clock represents a different timeline. There, she learns that her grandfather’s former disciple, Seo Ji-hoon, has turned against the Guardians and seeks to stop time completely to rule over eternity. As A-rin uncovers her family’s hidden legacy, she faces the Shadows — dark manifestations of broken timelines — and must decide whether to protect time or rewrite it. Along the way, she discovers that her grandfather’s disappearance was not an accident but part of a greater cosmic design. The story explores the meaning of destiny, memory, and sacrifice as A-rin learns that time is not an enemy to be conquered but a living force to be understood. Every choice, every heartbeat, and every memory shapes the flow of time — and those who guard it must pay the price of eternity.
