Bossam - Steal the Fate

Bring out the criminal.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Bring out the criminal!

That is right.

I am the grandson of Kim Je Nam, Kim Dae Seok.

Begin the questioning.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Episode 12

Are you Jeong Gap Nam, born in the year of the blue dragon, living in South Hanseong?

I am.

You have confessed receiving a request from the deceased bookstore owner, Jo Man Su,

and making the drawings for a banned book called the "Story of Wun Yeong" for him.

- Do you acknowledge that?
- I do.

Have you seen this ledger before?

I have. It is the bookstore's accounting book.

Are you certain of this?

I am certain because this ledger was verified for every payment received from selling a book.

Is this the only ledger?

To my knowledge,

there is one other ledger.

Do you say this knowing what would happen to you if you lie?

Yes, I am well aware.

Your Majesty, this is something I had not seen nor heard

while conducting the investigation and interrogation of the deceased bookstore owner.

I am certain there was only one accounting book.

It is a certitude this man is lying. Please discipline him with severe punishment.

That is not true, Your Majesty.

The accounting book is here.

Officials from the Office of Royal Decrees skilled in penmanship have verified it.

The handwriting of the two books are exactly the same.

Bring me the ledgers.

Even in my eyes, it is certain that these two ledgers have been written by the same person.

- Read it.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

Lady Jo, daughter-in-law of the Minister of Justice Han Chan Nam.

Lady Park, wife of the Second Minister of Defense Park Jeong Gil.

Lady Jeong, wife of the Censor-General, Yun In.

Minister of Finance Park Hong Do himself.

What happened? This is different from what we talked about.

Your Excellency!

Everyone is gathered in the meeting chamber.

Let us go there for now.

I will follow you in an instant, so go there before me.

Yes, Your Excellency.

All of this is that rascal Dae Yeop's schemes.

Lower your voice.

I will go to the meeting chamber and calm them down.

- You go home first. Once there—
- I will start by looking for Dae Yeop.

Make haste.

Do you resent me?

Are you truly Kim Je Nam's grandson, Kim Dae Seok?

I am.

Why do you think you are here?

It must be because I am of use.

You rascal. Who do you think you are addressing?

What use do you think you have?

Are you not intending to make me your sword?

You are an interesting fellow.

How can you become my sword?

Wouldn't you be a sword incapable of cutting down even one leaf?

The sword hasn't been annealed yet.

Is that so?

Then, what would anneal that sword?

Please restore my name.

I will become a sword that can cut even through a heart's worries.

How is Hwa In doing?

Let me ask you one more time.

How are you getting along with Hwa In?

Good. If you want to properly temper that sword,

I'm going to open a special exam period next month, so pass the military service exam then.

I will hear your answer afterward. Take him out.

- What about Dae Yeop?
- It seems he made plans to disappear.

He even took a few garments and valuables with him.

It seems all this had been carefully planned out.

I cannot seem to understand.

Why would Dae Yeop do that kind of thing?

Could he have discovered the secret about himself?

Our aunt could have told him.

Send someone to Sangwon Temple and bring back your aunt.

Yes, Father.

Find a way to kill that rascal.

If we cannot find Dae Yeop, we must at least kill Kim Je Nam's grandson.

If you get caught, commit suicide immediately.

The one who opens his mouth will see his entire family killed as well.

Retreat!

Yi I Cheom was getting anxious.

We do not know what else he might attempt again, so be thoroughly prepared.

- Yes, Your Majesty.
- Your Majesty, Court Lady Kim is at the door.

Let her enter.

- What is it?
- The Captain of the Left Police Bureau wrote and left a suicide note and hung himself.

He committed suicide after leaving a suicide note saying everything was his wrongdoing?

Yes. It seems they are blaming everything on him.

Yi I Cheom is really flailing in desperation.

How would you like to react?

Tell Kim Ja Jeom to mobilize the Western faction and the Confucian scholars.

If we lose this opportunity, we do not know when another will come.

We need to put Yi I Cheom and the Greater Northern faction in their place.

We need to show the Confucian scholars that we, the Western faction, are still alive.

Put your strength together. Do you understand?

Let us all pour our strength out!

Understood!

Let's do it!

There are endless petitions to strip the chief of the left police of his rank and send him into exile.

He overstepped his boundaries too much with this incident.

I didn't bring this up in order to preserve your dignity...

But this ledger contains your wife's name too.

The people in charge of this investigation are disappointing.

I've left cats in charge of fish.

I feel overwhelmed, Your Majesty.

If I am to appease the Westerners...

It seems that at the very least I will have to strip him from his title and banish him.

How do you think I should handle this matter?

If I am to appease the Westerners, I will need quite a big fish...

Among the requests of the Westerners...

They wish for everyone involved in the incident with Grand Prince Yeongchang to have their titles restored.

When I think about it, most of them had already been either killed or pardoned anyway...

I don't think there would be any serious repercussions.

What do you think?

- But Your Majesty...
- In return...

As you've constantly insisted, I won't release the Western Faction from confinement.

I don't have time...

Make your decision promptly.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Step forth, Chief Officer of the Left Police.

As the Chief Officer of the Left Police...

You were unable to manage your position and threw the country into chaos.

Do you acknowledge your own mistakes?

Yes, Your Majesty.

The left police chief officer Yi Won Yeop...

will be demoted by one rank, to answer for the mismanagement of his position.

However... the misstep is not serious enough to justify dismissing you from office.

So I will not discharge you for this.

Your grace is immeasurable.

And... the country's Confucian scholars are protesting with a sit-in.

I heard that this might even take place in the Royal Academy's residencies as well.

So... I think I will issue a massive pardon in order to pacify them.

Restore the ranks of everyone involved in Kim Je Nam's case during the ousting of Prince Yeongchang!

- Your grace is immeasurable!
- Your grace is immeasurable!

You and your household's titles have been restored.

Congratulations.

The Westerners are waiting outside, straining their necks to see and congratulate you.

Hurry and go.

No. I will leave through the back exit.

Even until yesterday, I had no place to call home in any faction...

and suddenly I'm a Westerner now.

I'm sorry.

What do you plan to do now?

The person who told my father your identity... was Kim Ja Jeom.

Why do you look at me like that?

I'm just so thankful. That's why.

I only did what was expected of me.

Don't worry about it.

Then where will you be going?

I must see my family first.

Yi Muk Ji Sin

Lift your head.

Yi Muk Ji Sin

A politician's word is worth a thousand coins.

You said such men should never lie,

and Your Majesty also promised me that you would do the same.

Do you believe that I held deceit in my lips?

I will tell you what "Yi Muk Ji Sin" means.

I will open a special examination period next month, so you are to pass the military service exam.

If you truly support Hwa In and me, prove it.

Pass the exam,

and be my sword and shield at my side.

Can you do that?

Yes.

Additionally, you are to report every little thing your father does to me.

Father!

Congratulations.

Thank you.

We gave Hyeong-nim Man Su a proper burial.

I'm sorry, Hyeong-nim.

Not at all. What's important is that you returned safely.

Wow... so are you a nobleman now?

And our Cha Dol is going to be a young master too!

Cha Dol, you can't pretend to ignore me just because you're a young master now, all right?

Don't worry.

All right, all right.

But, wait...

This is such a happy day, but why do you look like that? Your expression is so dark.

Hey... Huh?

You're the same!

Has something happened behind my back?

W-wait Your Highness—

Hey Ba Wu, what are you doing?

Her highness is telling you to follow her!

What are you talking about? When did she—?

Ba Wu! The princess is waiting!

Hey, hey. Cha Dol. You can wait with me.

Court Lady Jo, let's prepare a festive table for them.

On a happy day like this, we might not be able to do anything extravagant.

But a humble serving of liquor perhaps?

Fine. They say even annoying affection is still affection.

A single farewell drink should be—

What are you doing in front of the child?

Cha Dol! Let's go!

Hey, wait—

She liked it too!

But wait... a farewell drink? Fare— Hey, Court Lady Jo!

Isn't it cold?

It is fine.

Since your status has changed...

I suppose I can't talk down to you like this.

Just do as you always have.

There are rules for things like this.

I cannot do that, my lord.

You know I know nothing about rules or etiquette.

Moreover...

You suddenly sound like a stranger to me. I don't want it.

Since we can't see each other like this anyway ...

or talk with each other for much longer—!

So what is your name?

You must have a childhood name, right?

It is Su Gyeong, my lord.

"Su" from "water", and "Gyeong" from "mirror".

Su Gyeong...

Yi Su Gyeong.

It's such a beautiful name.

But why the sudden interest in my name?

I don't want to remember you as the princess.

I'm sorry.

About what?

For going out first into the sun alone.

I won't leave you in the shade for long.

Our temporary time apart...

is something we agreed was best for each other.

So don't blame yourself over it too much.

Have you heard what will happen going forward?

I heard that all of my confiscated properties would be returned to me.

Does that include your home in Hanyang?

Yes.

That is a relief.

Thank you.

It's all thanks to you.

Given how many times you've saved my life...

it's nothing at all, so please don't concern yourself over it.

When do you plan to leave for Hanyang, my lord?

I'm not sure.

I'm in no hurry, so I was thinking to take my time—

You cannot. You must hurry as quickly as possible.

It's obvious that the left state councillor will be glaring down your back, watching your every move.

Delaying things any longer could result in great troubles for you.

If it's because of me...

please don't fret over it.

When I heard...

the news about the restoration of your title...

I had already put everything aside.

What? We have to spend time apart for the time being?

Then... I can't go with you?

Do some thinking while you live.

If his identity is reinstated, that councillor's eyes will become red and he will be keeping a close watch on Cha Dol's father.

How can her highness the princess go to his house with him?

Ah then... we have to separate?

What did you hear thus far?

Fine. Then, I too will remain with you.

Are you crazy? Why would you stay with us? You should follow them.

Since Ba Wu is a nobleman now, he will live well without me.

But for you and the princess, I must remain.

Live well. You can live well without me, right?

Are you going somewhere?

Since you aren't here, I must watch over the court lady and the princess.

How can the two women live alone in this harsh world?

A man like me must remain steadfast like this.

- Forget it.
- Forget what?

- You don't need to do that.
- Why?

What...?

We probably won't be separated forever, right?

No, this ungrateful man...!

How much hardship did Your Highness face because of him?

- And that dangerous road...!
- Nanny,

I was rather volunteering myself for that.

Since everyone must be careful, we are temporarily staying apart.

So, don't blame that man.

Sister-in-law.

Young Master, I won't forget your grace in saving me.

No, I only did what I must do.

It probably wasn't easy to face your father.

Thank you.

I didn't do it because of you.

It just resulted differently from what I intended.

Although not killing your father is a big resentment of mine,

Since I can't live with debt unpaid...

This is my repayment for saving my family.

This tool which is used to kill people...

I felt it can save someone else.

Goodbye, Your Highness.

When I establish a foundation, I will quickly contact you.

Yes. You stay well too.

Listen well to your father's words. You must also study well and become a successful person.

Yes. You must stay healthy too.

Yes, I will.

They will see each other soon...

How in the world can there be a rule like this? We all suffered and come upon this great day.

How can you still be like a character out of a romance novel?

Don't cry. If we cry, Her Highness will hurt even more.

You are less sensible than Cha Dol...

Our Cha Dol is all grown up. He's all grown up.

Let's see each other again soon.

Then.

Raise your head.

Your eyes are full of resentment.

Yes, you must be resentful.

You must hate your father to the end.

- But, Hwa In...
- Hwa In is dead.

Since you wanted Hwa In dead,

Hwa In is dead as you desired.

I understand how you feel.

But, how could I have wanted my one and only daughter to be dead?

I had to prevent the bloody wind from blowing again at court and save the country.

I had no choice, but to make that decision.

After abandoning you like that, I too shed tears of blood.

But before I was your father, was I not this country's royal leader?

I couldn't, because of my own affections, allow this country to fall into misery again.

I'm not saying this because I am hoping that you will understand.

It's definitely not to gain your forgiveness. I just...

No... Since things have ended safely, that's enough.

- Hwa In...
- I am Su Gyeong.

Since I have become Su Gyeong, I was able to live.

Please understand.

Do you remember why I gave you the childhood name of Su Gyeong?

Since you said that my inborn temperament was like fire.

I heard that you named me so that I would use water as a mirror and control myself.

That's right. I did.

Ever since you were a child, like a boy,

you liked shooting arrows and riding horses more.

Father, I would really like to ride a horse.

When you go hunting, can't you take me?

- Hunting?
- Yes! Take me, Father!

Really? Fine. Then, shall we start with practicing how to ride horses?

Get on. I will leave.

Your Majesty, her highness Royal Consort Yun has arrived.

Tell her to come in! Are you all right, My Lady?

If you run this slow, you will lose all the foxes and rabbits.

- Hurry, hurry!
- All right, I will run faster.

Run, run!

More faster? What?

Faster. Fast.

Your father is going to get hurt. Get off now.

- It's fine. It's fine.
- Run, run!

Aigoo, your father is going to die.

After all, you probably did follow me to a few of my hunts.

How did those beautiful hands become so rough?

It's my fault.

It's your wicked father's fault. I'm sorry.

I will protect you from now on.

So that no one will ever harm you again,

your father will protect you. Trust me this once.

I'm not saying this to the princess as a king.

I'm saying this to my daughter Su Gyeong as a father.

Will you trust and follow me?

I will make sure that you never shed a tear again.

I pledge putting this country's royal title on the line.

Now that his identity is restored, he wont be killed will he?

I'm worried for Cha Dol.

I'm so anxious that he will get dragged away.

That's a concern too.

Has some of the bitterness in your heart been released?

Surely it can't be easy.

The young master has returned home.

Don't worry too much.

Since he is a hundred times better than his father, he will overcome this.

My father

pledged to send a military unit to the house that we will live in.

If perhaps you don't want it, you don't have to accept...

Then, we can go together.

We don't have to separate, is that right?

Father, I have committed a sin worthy of death.

But there was no other way to retrieve your letter.

If you are going to make an excuse, make it more plausible.

Does it make sense that you lied to both Father and me just to retrieve the letter?

Kim Dae Seok is not a pushover.

I had to deceive him completely in order to get the letter from him—

Still you persist? You lied to father and you deceived me!

It's not just yesterday or today that you have acted against the interests of the family.

How can you blame all of this on the letter?

I can explain it all.

Father, please listen to my words.

Father!

Won Yeop, what on earth are you doing, not dragging him out this instant?

Please get up.

Stop.

Please stand aside. This is not something you should interfere in.

I will go inside for a moment.

Escort her to her quarters.

Let's go.

Do you have the confidence to take responsibility for whatever I say about that child?

What... does that mean?

Don't you know very well what I mean?

If you have the confidence to handle everything that will happen when I open my mouth,

then stop me.

Come inside.

Until your father gives the order,

you must not touch a single hair of this child.

Did something happen while I was gone? I'm talking about our aunt.

What did her words mean?

- Shut your mouth!
- Hyeong-nim...

Didn't I say to shut your mouth?

So, are you saying that if I don't do what you ask, you will die?

If I die, will you even blink an eye?

Rather, isn't that what you want?

Be careful of your words.

Even if your heart is hurt because of Dae Yeop, how can you say such reckless words?

Do you feel any compassion for me?

Has your heart ever hurt because of me, when I'm living like this?

You are my one and only younger sister.

Does that answer your question?

I will believe that it is true.

If you can't forgive Dae Yeop, cut me down here and now.

If I live to escape this room,

the whole world will know about Dae Yeop, that child.

Are you threatening me?

You threatened first, Brother!

If you would only forgive Dae Yeop, I promised to do everything. I'd close my mouth and ears.

I pleaded so desperately with you that I would live in silence as if I had died with that child.

But instead... it was you who asked me if I, therefore, wanted to die.

Do you even realize what that child has done?

Yes! I know.

I know everything regarding that child.

That child is the sole reason that I am alive.

How can I not know?

Then, you should know that this is regarding the safety of our family. And still, you are doing this?

If you want to keep our family alive,

forgive that child.

If I lose that child while I still live...

whether it's your family or secrets,

you ultimately won't be able to guard any of them

So... if you can't forgive that child,

kill me first.

Stand up.

Follow me.

He didn't forgive you or accept you back.

He will have his eye on you even more strictly than before.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Yes.

So go ahead and rest.

I'm sorry.

I only cause you worry. I am ashamed to face you.

Since there is a situation that I can't explain right now,

if you would just wait, I will explain it to you when the time comes.

I know that it's all because of the princess.

This is really the end.

If there is an issue regarding the princess again,

I will personally inform your father that the princess is alive.

- Aunt...
- I can't bear to see you get hurt or ruined again because of the princess. Nay—

It's not because of her. It's me ... I did this to her—

Can't you shut that mouth of yours?

It's not too late to go your own way.

It's the only way that you and the princess will be able to live.

Keep in mind what I said.

What do you mean you can't return the house where Kim Je Nam lived?

There's someone else living there already. It's difficult to demolish the house,

and build a new one just as it once was, Your Majesty.

As it happens, there is a vacant house near me.

I would like to give that house instead.

Would Kim Je Nam's grandson want to live in that house?

He would feel you are openly surveilling him.

I don't think it's fair to say I would be surveilling him.

Then, let's do this. They need a place to live immediately.

Let them live in the house you described. And I will send funds in addition to guards to protect the house.

Then they can live with assurance, right?

I understand, Sir.

Also ...

I heard you have Kim Je Nam's daughter-in-law and granddaughter.

You will stick your nose in a jar of piss and fall into a bucket of dung.

We will see how well you churls eat and live.

What are you staring at?

Mother! Have decency, please.

Let's go.

Father, is that Grandmother's house?

No, now it is Cha Dol's house.

- It is your and your father's house.
- Wow!

It's great!

Father.

I am Kim Dae Seok.

These people are my household.

Let's go in.

(Rather than saying "family" he literally says these are the mouths I feed.)

Mother! Mother! Brother is here!

What?

Dae Seok! Dae Seok!

Dae Seok. Dae Seok.

♫ Please listen to me for second. ♫

If I died right now, I would have no regret.

♫ Retrace your path and come here. ♫

Let me look at my son's face.

Mother.

This unfilial son finally came to see you. I am sorry.

That's not so. Thank you so much for being alive.

Thank you Buddha and the gods of heaven and earth.

♫ You can't leave and come back again. ♫

Dae Seok.

Mother. Stop now and let go of Brother.

I want to get a proper look at him too.

Brother...

It's been hard for you, hasn't it? I'm sorry.

Not at all. You are the one who suffered so much.

♫ Winter leaves and a new spring is coming. ♫

- Who's this...?
- Oh.

My son Cha Dol.

Cha Dol. You must greet Grandmother and Aunt.

Grandmother, have you been healthy and at peace?

My puppy.

By the way, this is my mom.

♫ The sound of excitement flows. ♫

♫ It is us, living life. ♫

I see.

And the ones over there?

I am a longtime friend who has shared life and death, joy and sorrow with your brother. And this one here is my wi—

I am someone who has been like a sibling to Cha Dol's mother.

Please call me Yeo Ju Dek.

Mother, we shouldn't be doing this in the yard. Let's go in. Receive my bow first.

All right. Come here.

Let's go in.

Excuse me, Lady ... Yeo Ju Dek.

Let's take a look around the house.

It's all right. Take a look.

How did you meet him?

I told you we met by chance.

How old are you? Where are you from?

Are your parents alive? Where is your family?

What are you so curious about? Can we take our time to get to know each other?

It's about bringing a new person into the family. Why don't you step out?

Mother—

I was born in 1606 (byeongoh) in Hanyang, but Jeonju is my hometown.

I became an orphan when I was young, so I don't know about my family, Mother.

You must have had a hard time since you were alone from the time you were a child.

Not at all, Mother.

How could I compare myself to the hardship you and Agasshi have suffered?

Well, let's just say ...

As you can see, our family is not an ordinary family.

Now that you have become a daughter-in-law to this family,

you must be mindful of your behavior.

Do you understand?

Yes. Bearing in mind what you have said,

I will make sure to not bring trouble upon this family.

How-How did it go?

- We've overcome the hurdle safely.
- What a relief.

- Everyone needs to be careful.
- Oh, don't worry.

Starting with what you say.

I knew this would happen.

Let's go prepare dinner.

- What?
- Wait a minute.

Why... sir?

I don't intend to have anyone else in the house from now on.

If I did, undoubtedly Yi I Cheom will try to plant his men here.

Or I suppose he'd try to seduce them with money.

You're right, you're right. Now that you mentioned it, Kim Ja Jeom's servants accepted bribes to spy on him.

So... I know this might be hard work, but if Court Lady Jo would...

Yeo Ju Dek.

I want Hyeong and Yeo Ju Dek to do all the housework.

- But!
- Don't worry!

A long time ago when I was a servant, I worked so hard I was paid twice the annual pay of a farmworker.

Is there anything you have never done before?

Let us go.

What haven't I done?

I never dreamed I could sleep in a goose-down blanket and pillow again!

It still feels like a dream.

Mother, should I have my wedding again?

Please let me have it again!

- I want to wear a wedding coronet, have traditional purity dots painted on my face in a proper wedding hall!
- Ugh.

Her outer appearance has all of the makings of a high-class daughter.

Who? My sister-in-law?

You're right. It's possible she received some lessons from Brother before coming here.

She was exceptionally good at playing a noblewoman.

It doesn't matter. They say a dog's tail will never become a mink's fur.

As I thought. Like mother, like daughter, we think alike.

To be honest... I hated how pretentious she sounded.

- Um.
- Um.

Oh... you speak first.
