Solution and Explanation

  1. "I wish" followed by a past reference always calls for the past perfect form to express regret about something already over.
  2. Testing "I wish I know" or "I wish I will know" against this pattern shows they describe the present or future, not a past regret, so they are wrong.
  3. Only "I wish I had known" fits the fixed past-regret pattern used for this kind of sentence.

Correct answer: I had known.
