When "-것 같다" is used to show an assumption or guess for the past event, it is used with the ending "-던", showing for event of the past . 어제 철수는 집에 있-었던 것 같아. It seems that 철수 was at home yesterday. 오늘 철수는 집에 있-는 것 같아. It seems that 철수 is at home today. 내일 철수는 집에 있-을 것 같아. it seems likely that 철수 will be at home tomorrow.
