(Yoon Se A)

(My Sassy Girl)

You...

Do you recognize me?

Prince Eun Sung.

Ghost Mask is a younger brother of Prince Choo Seong.

I thought you died 10 years ago.

You survived like a rat.

You are a rat, not me.

That was quite a scene...

when you ran away, framing an innocent person.

It was nice meeting you in a while.

Goodbye.

What are you waiting for?

Kill everyone!

Drop your sword if you wish to live.

How dare you...

How dare you attempt to kill me?

Move aside.

I will kill...

anyone who blocks my way.

I said to step aside!

Is it why you killed them?

Whom are you talking about?

Prince Choo Seong?

Min Yoo Hwan? The Queen?

Yes, I killed them. I killed them all.

So what are you going to do?

Even the King himself cannot stop me!

Who says?

What?

How...

Stop.

Drop your sword, Jung Ki Jun.

It is over, Master Jung.

- I said to drop it. - Stop now.

Stop what?

What did I do so wrong?

I did it for the sake of this country.

To protect this country...

which my father's father's father built.

To set it right when you are ruining this nation,

trying to care for those ignorant peasants.

I sacrificed myself...

and volunteered to be the evil.

Did you say those ignorant peasants?

They make up this country.

Not me nor you. They make up Joseon Dynasty.

Everyone here makes up Joseon.

Sure.

This is why we can never...

be on the same side.

Your Highness.

- Move. - Let go.

Lieutenant Kang.

- Move. - Let go.

Are you okay?

What happened?

Master Jung confessed everything and died.

It is all thanks to Master Gyun.

Master Gyun?

What do you mean you will be a bait?

I will wear a Ghost Mask and make him confess.

- It is too dangerous. - That is why I am volunteering.

I want to pay for...

my sins against the King and the Princess.

I want to clear my father and friends' names.

If it were not for him,

we might have been fooled by Master Jung's tricks again.

Where is he now?

He must be with the King.

You are cooler.

You are beautiful.

Jung Ki Jun, Park Soon Jae, and Hwang Gu Sun...

slandered Prince Choo Seong and Lady Han.

They made up the flyers to denounce the Royal Family...

and faked the voice of the subjects.

They committed countless evil deeds.

Thus, the sinners will be deprived from their positions...

and put to death.

Also, all their family members will be demoted...

from their status to slaves.

They will also be deprived...

and be exiled to a remote area far away from the capital.

The weather is so nice.

Hey, I am back!

- Hello. - Look.

Look. What do you think about this drawing?

It looks beautiful.

It is such a nice day for a new start.

Those who needed to leave left, and those who needed to stay stayed.

- You went through a lot. - You too.

Let us display the books.

We need to sort them out in colors.

- This one is famous, so... - Hey.

Se Ho.

Mal Geum.

Goodness.

Mal Geum. I missed you so much.

You smell so nice.

How are you feeling?

I feel much better now.

Thank you.

Thank you for being alive.

Thank you...

for helping us punish Jung Ki Jun.

I thank you for everything...

and I am sorry.

It was something I was supposed to do.

I will discuss you and your brother's reinstatement soon.

Thank you.

Now,

my brother will finally be in peace.

What did you say?

You have not visited there for a while.

It is your promise with the subjects, so you should keep it.

We will accompany you.

Shall we?

What took you so long?

Young Sin, come and put these in.

What are you doing?

Mother.

Hye Myung.

Mother.

Are you...

really my mother?

I am sorry.

I am sorry...

Mother.

It still feels like a dream to me.

Where have you been all these years?

Prince Eun Sung helped me.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Where are you? Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Prince Eun Sung.

My brother asked me to help you.

Your Highness, you need to hurry.

Let us go back now.

Mother.

Keep this with you.

I will not return to the palace.

I do not belong there.

Why do you say so?

The Prince.

Do you not miss him?

It is too late...

to show myself and tell him I am his mother.

That will only hurt and confuse him more.

Mother...

What do you mean?

I do not know what you are talking now.

- Hye Myung. - No.

No, Mother.

Please come with me.

Please take good care of the Prince.

Mother.

The Princess met her mother?

She does not wish to come back.

She must have been hurt a lot.

She is being...

considerate for her son.

Your Highness, you need to hear this.

The Prince went to Jungungjeon.

Prince.

Hye Myung.

Where is Mother?

Did you not say she was ill?

Did you not say it was why she could not see me?

Is she staying outside the palace?

Where is Mother? Tell me, Hye Myung.

I thought about it...

over and over last night.

I think...

I understand how you feel at least vaguely.

Thank you.

Can I...

visit you from time to time like this?

He seems to be a nice person.

Master Gyun, you know.

- Your Highness. - Do not call me like that.

The Princess misses you a lot.

She thinks I am dead anyway.

It will be better for her to think that way in her life.

It all started from my mistake.

Blame me...

and do not forsake the Princess.

He seems to care a lot for you.

I forgot about everything happened in the past.

So I hope...

you do not suffer from the incident anymore.

I will leave for Jeonju.

It will be uncomfortable for the King and the Princess...

if I continue staying in the capital.

I will order them to prepare for your move.

I am sorry, Father.

Woo, can I talk to you for a second?

Sure, come in.

Is something the matter?

Are you okay?

What?

I mean... If you leave for Jeonju,

you might not be able to see the Princess again.

I wonder if you will be all right.

Cheer up.

It is the dried persimmons I took from you last time.

Why did you not have it?

I am okay. You enjoy it.

Eating sweets is best when you feel down.

Thank you.

Cheer up, Woo.

Dried persimmons are good in treating insomnia.

Have one before you go to sleep.

So I hope...

you do not suffer from the incident anymore.

Master Gyun.

Hello.

Are you here to see the Princess?

No, I just came by for one last time.

What do you mean?

I leave for Jeonju tomorrow.

Please take good care of her.

You should see her in person.

How could I dare see her?

It will be too hard-standing for her...

to see me.

- Master Gyun. - Please...

take good care of her.

I will leave you now.

So you are leaving.

Are you not coming back to the capital at all?

You guys can visit me in Jeonju.

It is just that I feel bad that we will not be able to see...

each other as often as before.

Me too.

Goodness.

Master Gyun.

You cannot leave us.

- Do not go. - Do not leave.

Master Gyun.

Thank you.

- Pardon? - Never mind if you did not hear it.

I am getting tipsy now. Gosh, I feel tipsy.

How could I dare see her?

It will be too hard-standing for her to see me.

Are you inside?

Yes.

It feels strange, right?

Yes.

I did not know my room was this big.

What is the matter, Lieutenant Kang?

I was not sure if it was right to tell you this...

or not.

Lieutenant Kang.

When my mother passed away,

you said this to me.

You need to keep smiling for happy occasions to come.

I want to bring you back your smile.

But...

I doubt...

it is something I can do.

Master Gyun leaves for Jeonju today.

Get off. Hurry off!

- Stop it! - Get off!

We ran so hard.

Do you think it is funny?

Let go!

Let me go!

Now explain to me.

Can you pretend...

not to see me just this once?

Just once.

Master Gyun, come on.

Master Gyun leaves for Jeonju today.

I picked it up on my way.

Are you here for me?

I am just stopping by on my way to somewhere.

You are here for me with these flowers.

Why are you staring at me?

Because you are beautiful.

Do not go.

Do not go, Master Gyun.

Your Highness.

I have not forgiven you yet.

I hate you.

I resent you.

But...

I need you.

I am not happy...

without you.

Stop right there.

Gosh.

Oh, no.

What is going on?

What is wrong?

Oh, no.

My goodness.

- Arrest him. - Yes, master.

Make way.

You sinner.

He deserves punishment.

- Goodness. - He deserves it.

What is the matter?

Someone just stole something from me.

Where was he headed? I shall run after him immediately.

It is you.

You stole...

my heart just now.

- You look so beautiful. - Gosh.

- You look amazing. - Do not say that.

It is deer antlers.

I thought it would be great if your son had them.

You did not have to prepare this.

My son is taking the state exam this time.

No, thanks. My son is healthy enough.

This is the latest edition imported from Japan.

I bought this for you thinking it would look great on you.

Oh, dear.

My goodness.

I do not have any other intentions. Please take it.

I feel uncomfortable whenever I receive gifts.

If you do not like this, shall I prepare something else?

It is not a big deal that my son is becoming the Princess' husband.

Why are you doing this?

It is making me so uncomfortable.

What is wrong with all of you?

If he becomes her husband, he can never be an official.

You are right.

They say...

the Princess has the most influence in Joseon.

They say...

the Prince cares dearly for his sister.

But it is not like she would grant a position just because of my words.

She is not someone who would do that.

I hope you are not mistaken from what I said earlier.

I never thought the Princess' husband is nothing.

It is nothing indeed. He will be only her husband.

He cannot become an official.

My gosh.

When will the wedding be by the way?

I guess it will be soon.

"The ruler must act like a ruler. The subject must act like one."

"The father must act like a father. The child must act like a child."

"The ruler must act like a ruler. The subject must act like one."

"The father must act like a father. The child must act like a child."

This is the teaching of Confucius in ruling over a country.

Become a right king...

and lead a country to be where...

the subjects, parents, and children...

behave accordingly.

Yes, master.

By the way, are you going somewhere?

You say it like it is your last advice.

Today will be your last lesson from me.

Are you going somewhere far away again?

Will I not be able to see you again?

That is not the case.

We will see each other often.

Do you not smell something burning?

See, my heart is burning.

Will you marry me?

It is so cool.

- It is amazing. - Right.

Do you want me to propose like that?

No, I do not think that will work.

Then how about this?

Drink this and you will marry me.

Was I not so cool just now?

No?

How about this?

Do I want to marry you?

- Gosh, seriously. - Why? What?

- Is it really necessary? - Of course.

You have no idea how women feel.

How you put it is the most important part in a proposal.

You have to choose the right words to impress her.

He does not know anything.

Actually, how you put it does not really matter.

Even if it is not something cool,

even if it does not make sense,

it is fine as long as it is sincere.

- That is it. - She is right.

- I guess I was not sincere. - Mal Geum, good.

That was cool.

Master Gyun.

I should stop walking you...

to your residence from now on.

Why? Is something wrong?

- Yes. - What is it?

I feel so bad...

whenever I have to say goodbye like now.

I want to...

wake up with you,

eat with you,

and laugh with you.

I want to live with you.

Will you...

marry me?

Sorry.

Pardon?

I am sorry,

but I cannot take this right now.

Your Highness.

You want to become a physician?

I have seen a lot of ill subjects while volunteering.

I wondered how I could help them...

and treat their illness.

I came to a conclusion that just volunteering was not the answer.

I do not intend to stop your dream.

- We will get married first... - I plan to go to Qing.

I heard they have more various ways to treat patients.

I can learn about the Western medical practices as well.

Your Highness, there is no need to...

I really want to do this.

You will understand me, right?

I was wondering how to tell you this anyway.

I feel much better now.

Goodness. Stop laughing.

This is so frustrating for me. Is it that funny?

You proposed and got rejected.

Of course, it is funny.

She never lets us down.

That is so cool of her.

This is driving me crazy. It is not like I can stop her from going.

If you cannot stop her,

- you should let her go. - Whose side are you on?

Goodness.

Look at those stars.

They look so pretty, right?

Well... Why are you all outside?

We are talking a walk.

At this hour?

How did it go?

What do you mean?

You proposed to her today.

Did it go well? Shall we set the date?

Gosh, no. I did not.

What do you mean you did not? We saw you buy the rings.

Why? Did she reject your proposal?

Not at all.

You went to propose and came back drunk.

- Gosh, he got dumped. - That is not it.

Mother and Father, I am too tired. I will go in first.

No way. That will not be the case.

Is it right to let her go?

It is not right. What about me if she goes?

Master Doggy.

What should I do?

Do not even think about it.

Master Gyun.

Promise me that you will never lay your eyes on others.

What are you saying so randomly?

I am saying not to lay your eyes on other guys in Qing.

Focus only on your studies and come back.

I will wait for you.

Thank you very much.

Are you not going to promise me?

Yes, I promise.

How can I like another guy when my boyfriend is so handsome?

You will go to the Qing to study medical techniques?

I wish to help sick subjects.

I understand your point,

but I cannot send you off to somewhere far away like Qing.

I will train competent people to help the subjects instead.

I want to do it, Father.

You cannot do it yourself.

You need to get married soon.

Must I get married and raise children...

just because I am a woman?

I do not want to live like that.

Right.

You should not give up on your dream just because you are a woman.

Mother.

Gosh, it is so heavy.

I have a very picky taste.

I am not sure if the food would suit me.

- What is that smile? - Nothing.

Can you speak in their language? I cannot.

Did you just swear at me?

It means "Have you eaten?"

I know you made it up since I do not understand their language.

- No. - Whatever.

- Gosh, just focus on packing. - Okay.

What are all these?

This book will help you the most in learning their language.

This map lists famous restaurants around the area.

- Restaurants? - When I studied abroad there,

I enjoyed going to these restaurants.

I marked the location,

so it would be easy for you to find them.

Thank you for your concern.

The most important thing is left.

This... Can I have it?

I have mine as well.

I took the original drawing and made a copy.

Look at it whenever you miss me.

Make it obvious that you are taken.

Be healthy and safe.

There are many interesting treatments here.

They also have unfamiliar medicinal herbs that do not exist in Joseon.

I plan to talk to Father and import some of them.

There are many guys who like me thanks to my beautiful looks.

But I am focusing only on my studies, so do not worry.

Oh, right. There is also sad news.

I gained weight recently...

because the dumpling restaurant you recommended is so delicious.

So Young Sin keeps teasing me.

This is all your fault.

I hope you are doing all right.

I will go back as a great physician soon. Wait for me.

I miss you.

I miss you too,

Your Highness.

Master Gyun!

Master Gyun!

I am hearing things now.

Master Gyun!

Your Highness.

Master Gyun.

Let us...

get married!

Master Gyun.

Gosh.

You must have eaten a lot of dumplings.

You became heavy.

We met after a long time, and is that all you have to say?

You are dead meat. Come over here.

- Gosh, Your Highness. - Stop right there.

- Goodness, calm down. - You...

Do not be like this again.

You did not miss me, did you?

I missed you.

What are you waiting for?

Gosh, come on!

Me too.
