SECRET HEALER

EPISODE 7

Seo-ri.

Seo-ri.

Until when...

Seo-ri.

Seo-ri!

Seo-ri.

My name is Jun.

Jun Heo.

Jun Heo.

I'm glad you're still alive.

Who is this woman?

There you are, Princess.

Seo-ri.

My dear Crown Prince,

please be patient.

My apologies. We've lost him.

We are searching the vicinity.

Have some of the shamans stay behind and guard the place.

If you find the Princess, bring her to me alive.

Please wait a short while.

I will let you meet your sister.

Who are you?

Is the scholar okay?

Why did you go outside?

What if you were caught?

Forget the herbs. Everything would have been ruined.

Don't you care?

You must never leave the Chungbing Temple.

Do you understand?

I brought him here given the situation,

but who is he?

Do you know him?

No.

I do not.

Is that the truth?

Then why were you with him?

I had something to ask him.

I'll send him away once I hear his answer.

When things calm down,

let's send him right away.

I understand.

The ritual boundary.

Check every tree and every crack you see!

You must find him even if you must drain the water in the valley.

-Understood? -Yes, sir!

Start searching!

Hey.

Are you sure he fell from there?

If he fell from that height

something had to be broken.

But we can't find anything.

Are you certain he is the Red Robe?

Hey.

Who are you?

I'm already annoyed because you messed things up.

How dare you question me about whether he's the Red Robe or not?

Why you... What?

I am the senior officer of the Royal Guard.

Poong-yeon Choi.

The senior...

The Royal Guard?

I see.

I...

I didn't recognize you, my lord.

I am also after the Red Robe.

I see.

Thus,

I questioned whether or not he truly is the Red Robe.

Well, you see

all the evidence on the most recent victim pointed to him.

What could be more definitive?

Right.

I do not think he is here.

So take the soldiers and go downstream.

Yes, my lord.

Oh, gosh.

I almost peed my pants.

Master.

The golden bell is gone.

Pardon?

Only the golden bell is gone.

I guess I'm not dead.

What is this place?

What is all this?

I saw this before.

"Memory potion.

You never forget something

that you see even once."

This?

They're worse than I am.

How could you sell potions? My goodness.

What is this?

"The Book of Curses."

Curses.

Not bad. They look pretty convincing.

What is this? It tastes gross.

I knew it. Gross.

"Before the North Star disappears,

you must light all the candles

and break the curse."

It looks like there should be more.

Is that it?

What does that mean?

It's hot!

Oh, no.

What's going on?

What happened?

What happened?

Water.

-Water. Where is the water? -Water.

Water.

-Water. -Water.

Look,

I'm sorry.

We almost had a huge fire.

Thank goodness there was water.

Thank goodness there was a pond here.

This will work.

With this...

There were so many candles.

We must be careful.

I'm so sorry. What do I do?

Look, I'm sorry about...

You...

have committed a grave sin that cannot be forgiven.

I'm sorry.

What's going on?

Seo-ri.

Let me explain.

-Step aside. -No.

Let me explain first.

What is that smell?

What?

I smell something burning.

This one is burnt.

What are you hiding behind your back?

Well... I...

You are the lady who saved me earlier, aren't you?

Well, I...

I am very grateful.

I am so grateful...

I almost...

Who are you?

Look.

Listen to me.

I... I think...

both of you

are not thinking rationally.

Let's talk.

I saved your life.

Is this how you repay me?

Do you have any idea how important that book was?

Please calm down.

Please calm down.

Let's talk this out, please.

Just know that your foolishness

put somebody's life in grave danger.

Please...

"Potion of invisibility!

Grind up a dog's gall bladder, rice paper pith, and Chinese cinnamon.

And the body will become invisible.

Clairvoyance.

Make a pill out of hemp seeds and Chinese mayapple, and eat it.

And you will gain the ability to see ghosts.

Turn a female into a male.

You can change a girl into a boy.

Love potion.

Fall in love with the person who feeds you the potion."

Who are you?

If you kill me,

the contents of the book...

will...

be lost forever.

I have memorized the entire book.

It is still in my head.

You've memorized the entire book.

Do you expect us to believe you?

I don't know what happened,

but I drank that strange potion

and everything in that book came into my head.

Potion?

Don't tell me. It was the memory potion.

If that book

truly is precious to you,

please give me a chance to make penance.

A chance? No way.

Please!

"Before the North Star disappears

you must light all the candles

and break the curse."

How dare you talk about that?

I don't know what that means

but you will lose if I die.

I will give you exactly one day.

If you cannot restore it by tomorrow,

then

I will bring you back to the cliff.

Tomorrow?

Okay, tomorrow!

One day.

Exactly one day.

What?

He disappeared?

I've already told the King that we caught the Red Robe.

What am I supposed to do now?

I have committed a mortal sin.

I don't want to hear it.

Our lives are at stake.

Bring him today.

Whatever happens

you must bring him.

Then we will be guaranteed a good life forever.

Do you understand me?

Yes, my lord.

Mother.

Mother.

What am I to do?

Why do you worry yourself so much

when there is an easy solution?

An easy solution?

The chief inspector gave you the answer.

"Whatever happens you must bring him today."

Isn't that what he said?

It is.

Then bring him.

You are so frustrating.

We searched the foot of the cliff all day

but we couldn't even find Jun's hand.

You are so stupid.

Why should you bother finding him?

If you cannot find him

you make it up.

Mother.

You can sleep here for the night.

Thank you.

The room is nice and cozy.

But you know,

about that woman earlier.

Is her name really Seo-ri?

Why do you ask?

I feel like I know her.

That is impossible.

There is no way you have ever met or seen that girl.

But you know,

are the contents of that book true?

No... I mean...

Don't ask about anything

if you wish to live.

Okay.

He's scary even when he worries.

Write it down here and bring it to me.

You must not get a single word wrong.

Do you understand?

Why aren't you taking it?

Yes, I will.

I know how important it is.

Wait.

You have very cold hands.

A woman's body should be warm.

Why do you cover your face?

Isn't it uncomfortable?

Can't you take it off for a moment?

I would like to thank you for saving me while looking at your face.

Does this belong to you?

I've never seen it before.

Don't you know what this is?

Then why did you have it?

I brought that?

Is that also something I must know?

No.

Never mind.

Hurry up and write.

Wait. But, I...

This way.

Is this him?

Yes. I found him.

What happened to his face?

Well, that is...

When he fell off the cliff

he must have hit his face directly on a rock or something.

His face may have been crushed

but looking at his ears and nose I'm sure that it's him.

Actually, the thing is this man had a big grudge against my family.

I think he did this to destroy my family's honor.

That's why he couldn't die.

My poor Jun.

Don't you agree?

Are you certain?

The body the Police Bureau brought is not the Red Robe.

I definitely wounded the Red Robe on the shoulder

but there was no such wound on the corpse.

Also, his height, frame, and everything differed from what I had seen.

When I heard they had caught that murderer,

I was so happy.

I apologize, Your Majesty.

You may go.

Your capture of the murderer is worthy of high praise.

Hence,

you shall be rewarded for your accomplishments.

You have brought peace by capturing the murderer,

who had been a source of fear among the people.

Chief Constable Ok Heo,

you shall be promoted to a senior officer of the Royal Guard.

The rest of you shall serve him as such.

Thank...

Thank you, Your Majesty!

Furthermore,

the murderer's limbs shall be torn off and hung outside the Palace gates

to bring the people peace.

Make sure that it's a good example

so nobody would dare commit such heinous acts again.

Dead

Jun Heo, an illegitimate son of the Heo family.

You are under arrest for the murder.

He was finally caught.

Your Majesty, why did you do that?

Did I not advise that he was not the Red Robe?

Whether he's real or fake is irrelevant.

The most important thing is to soothe the anger of the people.

-Your Majesty. -Poong-yeon.

The people of the nation have lost faith in the royal family.

If we couldn't catch the Red Robe again,

how would they view me as their king?

What would they say?

But you are deceiving the people.

Deceiving them?

The people do not care whether or not he is the real Red Robe.

They merely need someone to point their fingers at

to spit at, and to throw rocks at.

The entire nation is shaking in fear because of the Red Robe.

If we say that we have caught the Red Robe

the people will be able to sleep in peace.

What if there is another victim? What will you do then?

I will...

think about it when it happens.

I have always respected you.

However, I cannot follow your orders regarding this matter.

You may be able to pacify the people

but the truth cannot be buried.

Please tell the truth

about what happened.

Poong-yeon.

Your Majesty.

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty.

Your Majesty.

Is anyone out...

Lower your voice.

Your Majesty.

The Queen Dowager has arrived.

Your Majesty.

I heard you finally caught the Red Robe.

How dare you sit up there?

Please do not be mistaken.

He is such a close friend of mine,

so we just wanted to talk comfortably.

Isn't that right?

My apologies, Your Highness.

Come down.

Fine, I shall go to you.

Your Highness,

it is not a big deal.

Your Majesty,

is it really all right with you to share your throne with anyone?

Eunuch Kim.

Yes, Your Highness.

Why did you leave the King alone?

If anything happens to him

you will be the first to be beheaded. Don't you know that?

My apologies, Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Please stop.

It is all my fault.

I was exhausted from handling the government affairs.

That is why I called him here.

So many people demand so much from me.

It's such a headache.

I wanted to chat with my friend

but people in the Palace talk so much that it prevents me from doing so.

Perhaps I should take a trip for a short while.

Yes.

I've been worried because you've been looking ill.

That is a great idea.

Please accompany me and be my guard.

Yes, Your Majesty.

The King's illness must be worsening.

I hope he recovers soon.

Before the North Star disappears

Before the North Star disappears,

you must light all the candles and break the curse.

Is that everything?

Whatever.

Whatever.

That's all I remember.

The Red Robe...

It couldn't be him.

But then again, you never know.

Oh, gosh.

Oh, my.

Step back.

-Here comes the senior officer. -You should bet on this.

-Step aside. -My goodness.

You idiot.

Do it in front of me.

No one is stepping aside.

-Here comes the senior officer! -That's better!

Step aside!

I said to step aside!

You! Go get her!

I thought you looked really familiar, my lord.

How have you been?

I went to jail because of you, you know? And you ask how I have been?

What's your relationship with Jun? Why did you scam me?

Me?

I received money only from you. A hundred nyang.

And why are you brothers trying so hard to kill each other?

Even if he's a murderer, he's still your brother.

How could you rip off his limbs and hang them for all to see

and walk around looking so happy?

What? Look at this shameless girl.

You've completely lost your mind.

Right?

How dare you call that atrocious thing... Don't you see?

I'm a senior officer of the Royal Guard.

How dare you say that atrocious thing is my brother?

And who are you to say that?

You're just a low-class nobody.

-What was that? -"What was that?"

You really have gone crazy.

You're working with Jun, aren't you?

Get over here! Lock her up in jail right now.

She is working with the Red Robe!

-Got it? -Move.

Bat-soe! Don't lose her!

Catch me if you can.

I'm not working with a murderer.

Your Highness, I am coming in.

Is she trustworthy?

Yes, Your Highness.

As promised, we gave her family a land to farm on.

She has been serving the King for years, so he won't suspect her.

Follow the King and monitor his movements discreetly.

Look closely at his body and report his whereabouts.

Yes, Your Highness.

It was my son's place.

Your Majesty,

you must protect it well.

You're adjusting well.

Sure, it's nothing.

I learned how to blend in thanks to my family.

Why are you following me?

Following you?

I was only looking for the bathroom.

The bathroom is over there.

Aren't you going to use the bathroom?

I just wanted to know where it is, for when I need to go.

Did you finish restoring the book?

The thing is...

I was doing my job,

but I couldn't remember some of the pages.

What do you mean?

You took the memory potion. How could you not remember?

I'm sure you read some medical books

and put together some herbs that are good for your memory.

You're lucky I'm smart.

Otherwise, the contents of that book would have been lost forever.

Why are you so arrogant?

Did you forget who destroyed the book?

Anyway,

maybe it's because I'm hungry,

but I feel like I'll remember once I eat.

Now, do you remember?

It's salty.

Anyway,

maybe it's because I'm eating only rice, but I can't remember.

Do you have any meat?

That's enough already.

You know how human beings are.

You need to eat well for your brain to work.

Fine. I guess...

I'll just live here until I remember.

If that's okay with you.

I'm doing this for the book.

Treat me like an important guest.

What?

Are you telling me to run out and get food for that jerk ?

We have no choice. He says he can't remember.

He can't remember?

I'm going to...

Until he finishes rewriting the Book of Curses,

please do whatever he wants.

Wait until he finishes the book.

But anyway,

what will you do once he finishes the Book of Curses?

He knows about this place,

as well as the Book of Curses.

I need something.

Please remember what the book said about the amnesia potion.

Amnesia potion?

What for?

Fine. I'll tell you.

Prepare an old man's beard,

some Waryeon herb...

and False daisy in equal parts.

What's next?

What comes next?

Well...

And...

boil purslane in water

and refine it, and...

Did you forget already?

I know.

Why can't I remember?

Forget it.

-Master Yo-gwang! -Boil down the purslane

and mix it with the herbal tonic.

Happy?

Amnesia potion

Let's give him an amnesia potion.

He knows the contents of the Book of Curses.

Do you plan to just let him go?

I don't know what happened before between you two,

but Seo-ri, focus on what you must do.

The curse must be broken for everyone to live.

We need to go back.

If you give him the potion,

he'll forget everything that happened here.

Amnesia potion

Sure.

He should forget everything.

Here is the meat you wanted so badly.

You really brought it.

I was being nice and brought you some beef.

It should be easy to digest and it will give you energy.

Okay, eat.

Eat. Here.

Doesn't it melt in your mouth?

Yes, well, it tastes good.

What are you wearing?

Change into this.

Well, thank you.

You don't need to do this.

But I want to. Please let me.

-Here. Look at this. -Excuse me.

-This was imported. -Wait. I...

But...

why is the last page missing?

The last page?

Yes.

Have you completed the Book of Curses already?

No, I haven't.

When I read it, it looked like it was missing the last page.

Look. I'll let you know when the Book of Curses is complete.

I'm itching to get out of this strange place, too.

I need to change.

-I'm sorry, but... -Sure.

Eat all of this.

I've seen that shape before.

Do you know this?

Where was it?

Please tell me. It's been driving me crazy.

Let's see. Okay.

I'm sure I saw it. It's starting to come back to me.

-Almost... -Five years ago...

Five years ago. Five years.

I feel like it's coming to me.

This...

Oh, gosh.

This shape...

turns into something strange.

Like this.

No.

I like women.

I like women.

Oh, gosh.

Yeon-hee!

Yeon-hee.

Master.

Your Majesty.

Who are you? Who sent them here?

Was it Prince Soon-hoe?

Or the Queen Dowager?

You must be surrounded by people trying to kill you.

I am here to save your life.

Save my life?

I know what is causing your illness.

You have thorns

piercing through your skin throughout your body, correct?

Who are you?

Let me introduce myself.

I am Hong-joo, the former head shaman of the Hall of Stars.

A head shaman of the Hall of Stars?

If you would trust me,

I shall cast away all your illnesses.

Why you...

Stop playing games,

and tell me what you want.

Thanks to my skills I found out that your disease is worsening.

I am here to heal you.

Please roll up your sleeves.

If you don't find the cause

it will be back in a few days.

If you would trust me,

I will get rid of all the thorns

that are tormenting you.

What do you want?

Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, are you all right?

I'm fine.

I just...

wanted some air so I went for a stroll.

I forgot to tell you and caused you trouble.

Are you really all right?

Yes, I am fine.

The night air is cold.

Let's go back.

Who sent you?

Nobody.

I simply needed to urinate.

The Queen Dowager.

Please don't kill me.

The Queen Dowager.

The Queen has become the Queen Dowager.

Lord Hyun-seo Choi has disappeared.

Search the vicinity right away.

-Yes, ma'am. -Yes, ma'am.

It is you, isn't it?

The Persimmon Girl.
