The prince bowed to the emperor of China.

SAMGYEGUGODU, Bowing to the emperor 9 times

The generals who accompanied with him returned angry

without the prince.

Did Hodong really bowed to the emperor of China?

Heaven's on your side.

Life is exciting because you don't know

what future holds foryou.

You will scare the baby in your womb.

What about Father?

l've placed the soldiers in and outside the palace.

SONG OKGU Although, he's alone not guarded,

Hodong is good, a great fighter.

l will handle him.

Don't be impertinent. You can win Hodong.

SONG GANG/Eldest son of Song Okgu of Biryuna tribe Song Maeseolsu's eldest brother l won't ruin it. lmpertinence.

Of course! lt doesn't matter

what Hodong did in China.

What's important is the result.

We must kill Hodong this time.

Whetheryou use poison, knife, or bear hands,

l will give ten boxes of gold to the one who kills Hodong.

lf he comes back alive, he'll mean trouble to Biryuna Tribe.

Son, we must kill him.

My Majesty!

You need plenty of rest.

You should take a nap since you had lunch.

Who told you to mess with Hodong?

Pretend you didn't hear us.

l will deal with Hodong myself.

This is our last chance.

Muhyul is angry because Hodong made a fool of himself.

Prepare a horse. l will Hodong myself.

Maeseolsu!

No one interferes my fight with Hodong.

My Majesty!

A daughter who disobeys should be punished.

How dare you lay your hand on queen of Goguryeo.

Do you think the Biryuna tribe exist foryou.

You exist forthe tribe. Realize who you are.

Father!

This is not a war between you and Hodong.

lt's the war of 40 thousand Biryuna tribe and 50 thousand Gyeru tribe,

and Song Wok and Muhyul.

Sir... How could you treat her in such a way...

Do you think my father couldn't become a King

KlNG CHUMO/Jumong, founder of Goguryeo because he was not betterthan King Chumo!

KlNG CHUMO/Jumong, founder of Goguryeo Do you think l couldn't become a King because Muhyul's betterthan me!

Do l even have to kneel before Hodong!

GUKNAE PALACE KlNG DAEMUSHlN'S OFFlCE GOGURYEO Hodong has kneeled before Yoo Soo like a girl,

and saved your life.

EUL DUJl Minister of right of National Administration l have been a burden to the Prince, so l can't make excuses...

But Prince Hodong's decision was not wrong.

KlNG DAEMUSHlN

KlNG DAEMUSHlN Hey, listen to my word...

lf Hodong was just an official,

l could have let this go for him

beating his head on the ground and returning.

But he is a Prince.

CHU BALSO/Envoy for southern district lt is my wrong for not being able to serve him better.

l'm Goguryeo, and so is Hodong.

lt's a shame for Goguryeo to kneel before Han.

lt can become a ritual.

Sana tribe is turning their back.

WU NARU/Head of National Administration Hodong's Uncle Not only Sana tribe.

All the warrior of the central, South, East, West, and North

are turning their backs as well.

How could a pitiful Prince...

General, how dare you speak of the Prince such way.

What shall l call him then.

How could a Prince lead an army and Goguryeo

when all the soldiers are neglecting him.

- Your Majesty... - What is it?

Get out of the way! l must see the King!

l said not to let anyone in.

You mustn't do this...

Your majesty!

Go to your chamber.

SONG SUJlRYUN King Daemushin's second Queen But is politics only that matters?

What about your life.

Please save me... your majesty.

She said she will kill me no matter what...

This is war.

Awar between Muhyul and and me who

couldn't become king despite my ability.

Awar between Hodong and my nephew.

My Majesty, please calm down.

Since you've decided to go, fulfill your purpose.

My Majesty! l will.

lf the war ends, l will ask you for the forgiveness for my sin.

You won't taint your hands with Hodong's blood.

So if Muhyul decides to punish,

it'll be me, not you.

Thank you.

You are tainting blood on your hands...

Make sure to bring Hodong's head.

SlMBEON/Today's Shimyang, China

SULSl/between 7:30 PM- 8:30 PM

l found an open guest house.

Welcome.

Better guest houses seemed to have closed.

lt's not bad here.

Mix three eggs with alcohol and feed our horses.

Yes, sir.

Where are you going, Prince?

Remember.

Awarrior should always be on guard.

No one knows what's going to happen,

so we have to know an escape route.

But he's a nice boy? You shouldn't worry...

We are in Yodong and there are a lot of Hsianpei tzu warriors.

They have the habit of stealing...

lt's just like Goguryeo.

King Dongmyungsung built the country...

and l'm opening a trade with Han in order prevent such events.

- The dinners almost ready. - Yes.

l want to wash first. My head itches from the dust.

Bring some hot water.

Leave it there. lt's not heated yet.

- Thank you. - Yes, yes, sir.

Puku. You should eat. Why are you so busy?

Oh, l was brushing the Prince's horse.

- Sir. - Thank you.

Puku.

Great.

What is it filled with?

l've only took one bite.

GUCHU/LEEK Korean leek... cabbage, and a bit of meat.

Let me have a bite.

- l will serve the dinner. - This is better...

l want to stay like this for a bit more.

Then l'll bring you a new one.

ljust want a bite.

lt's bitter...

l have a bad sense of taste.

Now we've left Nakyang.

And yourfamily must have too...

Since we've got away from them,

you can leave.

l will pay my debt before l leave.

Puku, when did the bitterness of you life began?

Mom and dad.

They must be from Nakrang.

Yes.

Do you know theirfaces?

No.

lt won't be easy to find them...

What happened?

When l was a baby...

my brother and l...

were put on a boat.

Prince?

He fell asleep when he started the conversation...

lt will get cold if the water cools down.

You have to kill Jamyung.

WANG JASlL'S CHAMBER JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG

WANG JASlL'S CHAMBER JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG She doesn't even know who she is.

WANG JA-SlL Mo Haso sent Donggobi to Dongmo.

lt will be a matter of time.

WANG HOL So what do you to hearfrom me.

Don't worry sister. l will kill Jamyung.

ls that what you want?

Yes.

She's the daughter of the queen. lt's not a life of some fly.

Because she's not a fly, she mustn't live.

Sister!

Whether she knows or not of her identity.

She is the princess of Nakrang.

And she's serving the Goguryeo?

A princess mustn't live like that.

lt's betterfor herto die.

Hol!

Hol! Stop right there. Hol! Hol!

MO HASO

Hol!

Hol!

Do you know how she's living?

Do l have to know that?

While our princess is decorating herself with all sorts of things,

she is being stepped on by Hodong.

That's her luck.

ls it my fault that she was born to wrong mother?

l wanted to bring her because l feel sorry for her.

l wanted tell the queen that her daughter is alive.

Hol!

She was pretty just like the queen.

l would feel less sorry for her is she becomes the Queen of Goguryeo.

You are a general of Nakrang.

Hodong's trying to take over Nakrang by marrying Lahee.

Do you think he will leave her alone when he finds out who she is?

That's why l'm in such pain.

Because it might destroy Nakrang

when it has just started to build its foundation.

Second queen...

Your Majesty.

What are you doing here?

l wanted to ask a question to the general.

And l heard that you went to see the second queen...

What is it that you wanted to ask him?

Let's go to my chamber.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Since you are here let's go to my chamber.

ls it true that Goguryeo tried to harm the princess?

l think Bijik must have misunderstood.

Really?

Before Bijik left,

he told me to find out whether Hodong is a man

who can make our princess happy,

but it seemed to me that he could make no one happy.

What made you think that way?

Hodong can't even look after himself.

Who could he take care of?

Well. You can take care of sand love someone,

only when you can look afteryourself.

May l leave now? My wife must be waiting for me...

Oh, l kept you fortoo long.

Queen...

Your wife must be waiting foryou. Leave now.

l owe you so much for my sister-in-law,

but there's no way l can pay you back.

Why are you bringing that up now?

Please forgive me...

My Majesty...

Something's wrong with the general.

About what?

At the garden.

Why did you raise your voice at him?

Because of Mo Yanghae.

l told him to leave her but he won't listen.

He needs to have a son...

l'm worried how long he will be with the old Mo Yanghae.

l wasn't trying to listen but l heard it very clearly.

That the general is worried that Nakrang will fall.

lt's not what you think.

You know Mo Yanghae's temper right?

Didn't she shoot a fire arrow to me,

and tried to burn down the Wanggeom temple?

Jasil.

We have served our husband for almost 30 years.

Has it been already that long?

You've lied to me many times.

When did l lied to you?

l'm not smart as you, but l'm not a fool...

l knew that you were lying to me.

Because it would have only upsetted our husband.

A lie brings another lie.

Why do you keep talking nonsense?

l think you are lying to me.

You must be going through menopausal disorder.

l'm sure with you talking nonsense.

Don't deceit me anymore...

Brother!

l still did not forgive you forJamyung's incident.

l really don't understand what you're talking about.

Even if you are the mother of Lahee,

l won't forgive you.

Don't take my words for granted.

WANGGEOM TEMPLE/YULGUHYUN, NAKRANG The master is back. Greet him.

Welcome home. Master.

l'm so happy that you've returned safely.

l told you to dismiss all the formalities.

DOCHAL/Minister lt's compulsory for us to be polite.

BUDAL/Second general Madam will kill us if we don't.

Father, l'm back after accomplishing the mission.

Well done.

Father! But he.

BU TUNG

Hey! You should greet Madam first.

- Did you bring that? - Yes.

Madam!

Hol!

Sister-in-law. l'm home.

Mo Yanghae!

Are you okay?

MO YANGHAE lt's alright.

Are you hurt!

Oh... This Mo Yanghae is getting old.

Let me.

You must've sprained your ankle.

Ligament on the ankle

Get on my back.

lt's alright.

Get on my back.

l said it's alright!

Then shall l carry you?

Huh! You are much lighter than l thought.

You are mocking me.

- Rest. - Yes, general.

l said l'll do it.

How can you massage your own ankle.

l will call the maids.

Do they know the veinous? l can do it better.

- Does it hurt? - lt's ticklish.

Well. Did anything happen at Taesangwan?

No.

l thought there would be something by yourtalk...

There was nothing.

Except that l missed you.

l'm not lying.

- Didn't you miss me? - No way!

lt was so comfortable without you. l had no one to take care of.

General, may l come in?

Come in.

This.

Ah. l forgot about...

What is that?

The general bought this as Madam's gift.

He bought one more because he lost the other one.

Do you like it?

Do you think l will like it.

You should have bought me a sharp dagger.

That hurts.

CHOl Ll'S OFFlCE JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG

Lahee...

Yes, your majesty.

Call me father as you did before...

Father.

CHOl Ll

l'm worried that this is all too much foryou.

The happiness of women are on marriage...

and you have to sacrifice that because as princess...

LAHEE/Princess of Nakrang

lf there was no Madam Mo Yanghae, l would have given you to the general.

To my uncle?

There's no one who with greater

martial arts, sword skills, and a family.

lf it's Hol, he would have loved you so much.

Marriage by family union is good and bad.

lf l were to marry uncle despite his wife

that's for one reason.

Men of Younghojanwon are

strong in unity.

The marriage will be to strengthen seven southern prefectures.

Do you like Hodong?

You don't... like Hodong?

l cannot live if l'm not a princess.

Don't say that.

lt's hard to be a princess,

but l'm happy to receive the love from the people

that no other woman can have.

CHANHOO/Chanhun's heir Either it's Hodong from Goguryeo, son of Chanhoo, or my uncle...

l will marry the one who will benefit our country the most.

l know what you think now,

so go to bed.

lt must have been a hard time sailing.

Father...

l have a wish as your daughter.

Tell me.

Please forgive mother.

She tried to save my life regarding Jamyung's incident...

and for uncle's incident, she was trying to save you.

You said women's happiness depends on their marriage,

and l want you to apply that to hertoo.

MO HASO'S CHAMBER JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG

Lahee, what are you doing in the middle of the night?

l will stay by your side instead of fathertonight.

l've asked him to go to mother.

Ah! Yes, well done.

Are you sure? Aren't you disappointed?

lt's true that l'm happy for her,

but still l'm jealous since l'm a woman too.

Mustn't l be jealous?

That's why l love you.

l can trust you because you only speak of truth.

Last time you told me that you'll save Jamyung if she and l drown.

Not again. You haven't got over it yet.

Of course l can't get over it.

l will do it.

Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

What is it? ls Donggobi back?

The King! The King!

Your majesty...

Have a good sleep.

Do you still hate me for making the queen Lahee's birth mother?

l cried many nights and hated you a lot.

Yes, l can understand.

You must have hated me for more things...

As time passed, the hatred melted away...

And what's left was my yearning towards you.

Look at me.

Ah...

Let me go.

The wound is still big.

Please go to the queen.

l see that you still hate me.

How could l serve the king with this scar.

l don't have the right to serve the king...

Do you remember Puku? from the Happy Joy?

Ah, that Puku! Of course l do.

l saw her in Taesangwan.

She must be a grown up lady now. She's still in the troupe?

She was selected as a guard by Prince Hodong

and went to Goguryeo.

Awoman guard.

Does Hodong have affection for her?

Maybe...

l've scattered the flowers at the Dongmohyun Sea.

Thank you.

l've asked forforgiveness to Jamyung...

and l want you to forgive me too.

l'm sorry that l'm taking Jamyung's place.

You mustn't say that.

lt's not yourfault... and not mother's fault...

lt's no one's fault but the era made the situation.

Mother...

l will try to forgive the second queen.

lt is good to be a king.

l was proud to see Nakrang getting prosperous,

and to hear praises from the people.

lt seemed to be my place from the beginning.

The throne of Nakrang belongs to you.

No. lt belonged to Brother Wang Goeng.

You've took the throne from him and gave it to me.

Will you forgive me fortrying to punish you

so that l'll feel less sorry for Wang Goeng?

Let's give everything to Lahee...

and grow old together Mo Haso, me and Wang Jasil.

Let's spend the rest of ourtime together.

Yes. Your majesty.

l told you to sleep in your room...

Madam. Madam.

- Madam. - Madam...

Yes... Ah... Hol bought this for me.

What is it?

So did you find out?

According to Sugi, he went to Goguryeo with Prince Hodong.

- How can that be! - l'm sure about that.

l've asked him beating his head...

And Princess Jamyung was taken as a guard by Hodong.

ls she good in martial arts?

lt's a sticky situation.

How could we go to Goguryeo?

Furthermore we have to go to Guknae Palace...

How can we?

Jamyung...

Your sister Lahee has scattered flowers foryou,

but why do l have the feeling that you are alive Jamyung.

So it's hard to neutralize.

Drink this.

Prince!

lf you blow this...

Boruk will come. My hawk.

Tie this on Boruk's leg.

Prince, the hawk will come, but others will come to kill us.

Go... alone...

You are going to Nakrang to find mom?

Yes. l have to go to Nakrang to find mom and dad.

Go... now.

Prince!

l'm exhausted... Stop talking to me and go.

Puku

Give me the sword.

ls it your mother's deeds?

ls your motherthe one who's trying to kill us?

Yes.

lt's the sound of Hodong calling his hawk.

NAKYANG

lLPUM

MlCHU, CHA CHASUNG

She's really pertinacious.

Yes, she's the most pertinacious woman l've ever seen in my life.

She didn't follow us.

She must have heard that we are performing at Taesangwan.

Hangkai, you should talk to her.

You were in the Happy Joy?

Yes. l've seen you before.

DONGGOBl

l asked herto put me on the boat to Nakrang

during the Dongmo performance.

l'll work as much as the boat fee.

l can't do that...

Why are you going to Nakrang?

Do l have to tell you that?

Ahah... he has grown a lot.

Why are you looking for Happy Joy?

l'm looking for someone. lt's been a long time.

There was a baby girl and a boy who

came drafting to Dongmo on a boat.

The baby girl was stabbed on her chest right?

How do you know that!

A lot of people are looking for her, so it's a famous story.

Do you know her?

She's dead.

Do you mean she died when she was on the boat?

She died during the show at Nakrang.

No! How could that happen...

Hangkai.

- Hangkai! - What's going on!

SO SO There's a problem. You must come now.

Don't you know about the guy who was on the boat?

Why are you looking for him?

l can't tell you that but someone's looking for him.

l'm not sure.

l only know a girl named Myori who died with a wound in her chest.

Then can you tell me why you were trying to go to Nakrang?

To earn money.

What is it!

The prince is in trouble.

- What about Puku? - This is all because of you.

TAECHU/Soldier l left prince to save you. Damn you!

A girl as a guard?

Prince Hodong must have affection for her?

You are... here...

Why?

l don't know...

why l came.

But l'm here as his friend.

Not as slave.

You don't know the happiness of being able to breathe.

Long time ago,

there was a sister named Myori who died for me.

She died because she couldn't breathe,

so l wanted to tell the prince that being able to breathe is happiness.

l...

will take you back to your mother alive.
