1
00:01:41,851 --> 00:01:47,857
THE EAST PALACE
2
00:01:50,318 --> 00:01:51,236
Crown Prince.
3
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,494
That spirit… That spirit took my son!
4
00:02:00,870 --> 00:02:03,873
Your Majesty!
5
00:02:04,833 --> 00:02:06,334
Silence.
6
00:02:09,921 --> 00:02:11,881
Where is His Majesty?
7
00:02:18,221 --> 00:02:20,974
His Highness the Crown Prince
went out alone at dawn?
8
00:02:21,057 --> 00:02:23,643
This will lead to greater chaos.
9
00:02:23,726 --> 00:02:26,813
The court must not be the first
to be shaken.
10
00:02:26,896 --> 00:02:27,939
Chief Royal Secretary.
11
00:02:28,439 --> 00:02:29,691
Yes, Your Majesty.
12
00:02:31,818 --> 00:02:34,737
Proceed with the funeral rites at once.
13
00:02:35,822 --> 00:02:36,739
Yes, Your Majesty.
14
00:02:42,871 --> 00:02:44,164
Your Majesty.
15
00:02:45,456 --> 00:02:48,334
An incident has befallen the Crown Prince.
16
00:02:49,460 --> 00:02:51,004
Are you aware of it?
17
00:02:51,671 --> 00:02:52,797
I have heard.
18
00:02:57,886 --> 00:03:01,389
And yet, how can you remain
so unperturbed?
19
00:03:01,472 --> 00:03:02,807
You may all withdraw.
20
00:03:02,891 --> 00:03:05,435
-Yes, Your Majesty.
-Yes, Your Majesty.
21
00:03:09,105 --> 00:03:11,482
The Crown Princes are dying
one after another.
22
00:03:11,566 --> 00:03:15,820
By that pond spirit, Jangpyeong,
Yunpyeong, and the current Crown Prince--
23
00:03:15,904 --> 00:03:17,488
That is enough.
24
00:03:18,031 --> 00:03:19,991
There is no such thing as spirits.
25
00:03:20,491 --> 00:03:24,204
How could there be spirits
in our Neo-Confucian royal house?
26
00:03:24,287 --> 00:03:25,622
Have you forgotten already?
27
00:03:25,705 --> 00:03:29,459
Thirty years ago, the Crown Princes died
one after another, just as they do now!
28
00:03:29,542 --> 00:03:32,754
Yes. Thirty years have already passed.
29
00:03:32,837 --> 00:03:35,006
But this is not the same as it was then.
30
00:03:35,506 --> 00:03:39,385
My first and second sons died of illness.
31
00:03:40,136 --> 00:03:41,679
And the third Crown Prince,
32
00:03:42,180 --> 00:03:44,766
being deeply tormented in mind,
33
00:03:45,683 --> 00:03:47,769
chose to take his own life.
34
00:03:48,353 --> 00:03:55,151
Such things as spirits do not exist.
Speak no more of them.
35
00:03:58,029 --> 00:04:02,533
Such talk would do Your Majesty no good,
would it, Mother?
36
00:04:04,202 --> 00:04:07,038
If that is truly how you see it,
Your Majesty…
37
00:04:09,499 --> 00:04:11,793
then just as you always have,
38
00:04:13,002 --> 00:04:15,171
stay as you are and take no action.
39
00:04:16,047 --> 00:04:19,342
I shall see to the safety
of the princes myself.
40
00:04:19,425 --> 00:04:22,887
I shall also find a way
to ward off the spirit!
41
00:04:31,020 --> 00:04:35,400
His Highness the Crown Prince!
42
00:04:36,192 --> 00:04:38,861
Come back to us!
43
00:04:39,696 --> 00:04:42,532
Come back!
44
00:04:43,825 --> 00:04:46,911
Come back!
45
00:04:48,454 --> 00:04:51,708
Alas.
46
00:04:52,208 --> 00:04:55,628
Alas.
47
00:04:56,170 --> 00:04:59,257
Alas.
48
00:05:00,133 --> 00:05:03,845
Alas.
49
00:05:03,928 --> 00:05:06,973
Alas.
50
00:05:19,861 --> 00:05:23,156
Alas.
51
00:05:23,656 --> 00:05:27,452
Alas.
52
00:05:27,535 --> 00:05:29,245
Alas.
53
00:05:29,329 --> 00:05:30,830
Stop the wailing!
54
00:05:36,044 --> 00:05:37,128
Do you all truly believe
55
00:05:37,211 --> 00:05:41,466
that spirits could kill
the sons of the King?
56
00:05:42,884 --> 00:05:47,638
That the late King and I
lost our sons to spirits?
57
00:05:48,389 --> 00:05:50,892
And that the King fears spirits?
58
00:05:51,893 --> 00:05:55,229
What officials or subjects
would ever follow such a king?
59
00:05:55,313 --> 00:05:57,857
-Your Majesty.
-Your Majesty.
60
00:05:58,358 --> 00:06:01,444
Mere spirits cannot lay a hand
on the royal bloodline.
61
00:06:02,153 --> 00:06:06,074
No one can threaten the royal authority…
62
00:06:11,329 --> 00:06:13,247
be it human or spirit.
63
00:06:30,807 --> 00:06:32,725
Do you truly believe
64
00:06:33,226 --> 00:06:35,353
the spirits can be subdued by that man?
65
00:06:35,937 --> 00:06:38,731
He is the most renowned shaman
in the capital.
66
00:07:44,380 --> 00:07:48,593
I will eradicate the royal bloodline.
67
00:08:09,405 --> 00:08:11,657
Your Majesty, Prince Yeongan is…
68
00:08:20,374 --> 00:08:22,543
What is the matter now, Prince Yeongan?
69
00:08:23,044 --> 00:08:23,920
Prince Yeongan!
70
00:08:24,420 --> 00:08:25,713
What has happened?
71
00:08:26,214 --> 00:08:29,550
Prince Yeongan has suddenly gone
into a convulsion.
72
00:08:31,385 --> 00:08:34,055
Prince Yeongan.
73
00:08:37,225 --> 00:08:38,184
Prince Yeongan…
74
00:08:42,605 --> 00:08:44,190
Did you see?
75
00:08:44,273 --> 00:08:45,858
Did you?
76
00:08:46,859 --> 00:08:49,529
I will take this one as well.
77
00:08:51,989 --> 00:08:56,160
Prince Yeongan! No! Please, no!
78
00:08:56,244 --> 00:08:57,370
Please stop!
79
00:09:04,877 --> 00:09:07,755
Please save Prince Yeongan, Your Majesty.
80
00:09:07,838 --> 00:09:11,467
I will wipe out every last seed
of the East Palace!
81
00:09:17,515 --> 00:09:20,017
What occurred 30 years ago
82
00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:23,020
is repeating itself within the palace.
83
00:09:23,563 --> 00:09:25,940
Therefore, I need youto come with me this time
84
00:09:26,691 --> 00:09:28,859
and bring this matter to an end.
85
00:09:30,486 --> 00:09:35,241
This humble monk is old and frail
and can no longer shoulder such a task.
86
00:09:35,741 --> 00:09:38,869
However, there is someone else
who may serve in my stead.
87
00:09:39,745 --> 00:09:40,830
Who is it?
88
00:09:40,913 --> 00:09:43,207
A boy named Gu-cheon.
89
00:09:45,793 --> 00:09:48,462
His mother was a shaman.
90
00:09:48,546 --> 00:09:50,256
When she conceived a child,
91
00:09:50,339 --> 00:09:53,342
the deity she served grew angered
and laid a curse upon her.
92
00:09:55,094 --> 00:10:00,099
In her agony, she threw herselfinto the river with her child.
93
00:10:01,976 --> 00:10:05,271
Yet the mother, a shaman, died,
94
00:10:05,771 --> 00:10:08,149
and the child survived.
95
00:10:09,066 --> 00:10:11,360
The child had been underwaterfor over 15 minutes
96
00:10:11,444 --> 00:10:14,322
and should not have survived.
97
00:10:15,281 --> 00:10:17,408
Perhaps because he diedand came back to life,
98
00:10:17,908 --> 00:10:21,495
he has seen spirits ever since.
99
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,126
Gu-cheon.
100
00:10:28,544 --> 00:10:30,171
You little rascal, get up.
101
00:10:30,671 --> 00:10:32,089
Get up.
102
00:10:32,173 --> 00:10:34,175
Get up at once!
103
00:10:34,258 --> 00:10:37,470
Come now, get up!
104
00:10:41,015 --> 00:10:43,559
Have you gone senile
105
00:10:43,643 --> 00:10:45,811
in this temple of Buddha
and the Mountain God?
106
00:10:46,312 --> 00:10:50,107
Why do you keep sleeping hereinstead of your perfectly good room?
107
00:10:50,191 --> 00:10:53,903
Things come out at night and torment me,
so I sleep here.
108
00:10:54,403 --> 00:10:56,280
For heaven's sake.
109
00:10:57,323 --> 00:10:58,324
Gu-cheon,
110
00:10:58,824 --> 00:11:01,118
someone of high standing
has come to see you.
111
00:11:01,202 --> 00:11:04,288
-Come with me at once.
-No. What would you have me do?
112
00:11:04,372 --> 00:11:06,624
Do not sleep the day away
and earn your keep.
113
00:11:06,707 --> 00:11:08,167
With that one thing you can do--
114
00:11:08,250 --> 00:11:11,295
I told you I truly do not wish
to do such work.
115
00:11:11,379 --> 00:11:12,672
A Buddhist earning his keep?
116
00:11:12,755 --> 00:11:15,466
-What a shameless monk.
-What? Shameless?
117
00:11:15,549 --> 00:11:19,011
Fine. I have been wanting to quit
this shameless monk life.
118
00:11:24,308 --> 00:11:26,560
You do not look well.
119
00:11:26,644 --> 00:11:28,229
Is something wrong?
120
00:11:29,271 --> 00:11:32,274
Worry about yourself.
You look deathly pale.
121
00:11:32,358 --> 00:11:34,443
-Enough.
-What do you want with me?
122
00:11:34,944 --> 00:11:37,988
I heard you can see spirits
and even drive them out.
123
00:11:38,072 --> 00:11:41,409
Good grief,
you must be telling the entire village.
124
00:11:42,201 --> 00:11:44,578
No wonder anyone and everyone
comes to see me.
125
00:11:44,662 --> 00:11:48,082
-Gu-cheon!
-There is a reason spirits torment people.
126
00:11:48,165 --> 00:11:50,126
It is because they did something foul.
127
00:11:50,209 --> 00:11:52,795
Stop bringing me people
who stink of such foul deeds.
128
00:11:53,671 --> 00:11:55,506
Watch your tongue, you rascal.
129
00:11:58,259 --> 00:12:00,261
He says his child is ill.
130
00:12:00,344 --> 00:12:03,347
Afflicted by a spirit,
he is in grave condition.
131
00:12:04,348 --> 00:12:07,685
What does that have to do with me?
132
00:12:08,644 --> 00:12:10,479
Do not summon me over such trifles.
133
00:12:10,980 --> 00:12:12,606
I am going to get some sleep.
134
00:12:12,690 --> 00:12:13,899
Gu-cheon!
135
00:12:17,319 --> 00:12:18,195
What?
136
00:12:18,779 --> 00:12:21,991
Do you see something in me?
137
00:12:22,074 --> 00:12:23,200
Your right hand.
138
00:12:24,618 --> 00:12:25,828
You cannot use it.
139
00:12:27,288 --> 00:12:28,581
Why is that?
140
00:12:28,664 --> 00:12:30,791
You have a bite mark left by a spirit.
141
00:12:31,292 --> 00:12:33,294
Seeing that the flesh tore away,
142
00:12:33,377 --> 00:12:35,463
a spirit of deep resentment
has clung to you.
143
00:12:36,672 --> 00:12:38,382
If only you had lived better.
144
00:12:38,924 --> 00:12:40,676
Even so, it is none of my concern.
145
00:12:41,177 --> 00:12:42,970
I beg your pardon.
146
00:13:31,435 --> 00:13:33,103
I am at the palace.
147
00:13:39,693 --> 00:13:40,694
King…
148
00:13:43,864 --> 00:13:46,158
-You may all withdraw.
-Yes, Your Majesty.
149
00:13:51,497 --> 00:13:53,624
Do you know where this is?
150
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:56,752
Yes, this is the palace.
151
00:13:57,253 --> 00:13:58,921
It is where Your Majesty resides.
152
00:13:59,547 --> 00:14:04,260
Yes, it is a vast, beautiful,
153
00:14:05,511 --> 00:14:06,971
and opulent residence.
154
00:14:11,767 --> 00:14:15,396
At this pond, the Crown Prince
was bewitched by a spirit and died.
155
00:14:16,063 --> 00:14:19,233
It said, "I will wipe out
every last seed of the East Palace."
156
00:14:19,316 --> 00:14:24,196
Even my one remaining young son
is now on the brink of death. So…
157
00:14:26,115 --> 00:14:27,992
I need you to ward off that spirit.
158
00:14:29,660 --> 00:14:31,579
What is the nature of that spirit?
159
00:14:31,662 --> 00:14:34,081
That is none of your concern.
Can you do it?
160
00:14:34,665 --> 00:14:37,793
Can you find that spirit
and get rid of it?
161
00:15:02,735 --> 00:15:04,695
It is no longer present.
162
00:15:04,778 --> 00:15:06,238
The spirit
163
00:15:07,114 --> 00:15:08,699
has gone elsewhere.
164
00:15:11,118 --> 00:15:13,287
I will have to look
at other places as well.
165
00:15:23,088 --> 00:15:24,131
Wait.
166
00:15:30,054 --> 00:15:31,472
You should stay here.
167
00:15:32,181 --> 00:15:33,599
What do you think you are doing?
168
00:15:34,934 --> 00:15:38,312
If those with strong energy are nearby,
the spirit will flee,
169
00:15:38,812 --> 00:15:40,397
so I will go alone and see.
170
00:15:44,318 --> 00:15:45,819
Do not attempt anything foolish.
171
00:16:02,962 --> 00:16:06,006
That crazy, shameless monk
sold me off to the palace.
172
00:16:07,132 --> 00:16:09,385
I cannot. I must not do this.
173
00:16:09,468 --> 00:16:12,388
No, wait!
174
00:16:16,433 --> 00:16:19,728
The Big Dipper lies that way, so this way!
175
00:16:26,652 --> 00:16:27,736
Good grief.
176
00:16:41,792 --> 00:16:45,170
Well… my stomach hurt, so…
177
00:16:49,508 --> 00:16:51,427
No, seriously…
178
00:16:53,220 --> 00:16:55,139
This is unfair!
179
00:16:57,224 --> 00:16:59,518
I did not choose to enter the palace.
180
00:17:00,019 --> 00:17:02,062
However lowborn I may be…
181
00:17:08,861 --> 00:17:10,279
Mark my words.
182
00:17:11,530 --> 00:17:13,574
If you attempt to flee again…
183
00:17:15,743 --> 00:17:18,328
I will sever both your feet.
184
00:17:19,163 --> 00:17:22,291
If you tell others
that you hunt spirits here,
185
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:25,377
I will sever your jaw.
186
00:17:26,003 --> 00:17:29,298
If you fail to capture the spirit
and my son is harmed,
187
00:17:29,798 --> 00:17:32,551
I will sever your head.
188
00:17:34,803 --> 00:17:38,724
They say that once you enter the palace,
you leave only in death.
189
00:17:39,475 --> 00:17:40,809
That is what the palace is.
190
00:17:41,852 --> 00:17:44,271
If you wish to leave the palace alive,
191
00:17:45,022 --> 00:17:47,691
then capture the spirit at once
and get rid of it.
192
00:17:48,609 --> 00:17:51,528
If you do so, I will grant you
whatever you wish.
193
00:17:52,571 --> 00:17:53,697
Do you understand?
194
00:18:00,454 --> 00:18:04,416
From this moment on, by royal command,
you are a feng shui master of the palace.
195
00:18:06,043 --> 00:18:08,629
I will assign you someone
who may be of use.
196
00:18:51,505 --> 00:18:53,048
You are hardly recognizable.
197
00:18:55,050 --> 00:18:56,677
It has been ten years.
198
00:18:57,302 --> 00:19:01,390
Do you know why I summoned you?
199
00:19:01,473 --> 00:19:05,060
You must have needed someone trustworthy
to keep a secret.
200
00:19:07,563 --> 00:19:09,815
To save your dying son,
201
00:19:10,607 --> 00:19:12,943
you summoned your daughter,
who was as good as dead.
202
00:19:15,571 --> 00:19:19,950
I see you still carry
what happened to you as a child.
203
00:19:22,911 --> 00:19:24,163
How could that be?
204
00:19:25,998 --> 00:19:28,000
I am only glad
205
00:19:28,834 --> 00:19:30,544
to be of service to you, Father.
206
00:19:36,633 --> 00:19:39,386
I have brought a spirit-catcherinto the palace.
207
00:19:40,804 --> 00:19:44,433
Be my eyes and ears,and keep watch on him.
208
00:19:46,059 --> 00:19:49,688
Whether to entrust him with the taskor put him to death,
209
00:19:50,689 --> 00:19:52,858
I will decide through you.
210
00:20:01,575 --> 00:20:02,826
Is anyone here?
211
00:20:10,834 --> 00:20:13,754
"Someone who may be of use"?
Who on earth is he assigning to me?
212
00:20:14,254 --> 00:20:16,256
I suppose he will send some fearsome men.
213
00:20:16,340 --> 00:20:18,800
There are fearsome men everywhere.
214
00:20:19,301 --> 00:20:20,802
For heaven's sake.
215
00:20:21,345 --> 00:20:22,638
That shameless monk…
216
00:20:23,388 --> 00:20:24,598
Look here.
217
00:20:26,099 --> 00:20:27,142
Look here!
218
00:20:27,226 --> 00:20:28,602
Damn it.
219
00:20:31,188 --> 00:20:32,397
Who are you?
220
00:20:32,481 --> 00:20:33,941
Why do you not answer?
221
00:20:35,192 --> 00:20:36,818
Why do you open the door without…
222
00:20:39,112 --> 00:20:41,990
His Majesty sent me to assist you.
223
00:20:43,116 --> 00:20:45,953
-What am I to do with someone like you?
-Pardon?
224
00:20:46,036 --> 00:20:49,539
I clearly said to change my room first,
not to send me useless people,
225
00:20:49,623 --> 00:20:50,791
yet he pays no heed.
226
00:20:50,874 --> 00:20:53,085
I have not slept a wink all night.
227
00:20:53,168 --> 00:20:56,380
I am truly at my wits' end!
228
00:20:57,756 --> 00:21:01,260
You lose your temper the moment we meet.
Do you have no manners?
229
00:21:02,386 --> 00:21:06,348
Your quarters were chosen
to avoid prying eyes, so do not complain.
230
00:21:06,431 --> 00:21:07,349
Complain?
231
00:21:08,475 --> 00:21:10,060
Complain? Ridiculous.
232
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:11,645
Look.
233
00:21:13,355 --> 00:21:15,565
Do you know why there is no one here?
234
00:21:16,483 --> 00:21:20,737
People keep dying here
for no reason, do they?
235
00:21:20,821 --> 00:21:25,993
It is because all the Yin energy gathers…
236
00:21:28,287 --> 00:21:30,163
and things like that come to dwell here.
237
00:21:30,747 --> 00:21:31,581
What?
238
00:21:33,917 --> 00:21:34,918
Ominous.
239
00:21:35,419 --> 00:21:38,922
What exactly is here?
240
00:21:42,634 --> 00:21:43,802
Oh dear.
241
00:21:44,970 --> 00:21:48,598
It must be comforting for you,
seeing nothing at all.
242
00:21:49,266 --> 00:21:50,809
I will just go to sleep.
243
00:21:52,227 --> 00:21:56,106
-One cannot expect courtesy from a brute.
-A brute?
244
00:21:56,189 --> 00:21:59,401
In any case, this is our first meeting.
245
00:21:59,484 --> 00:22:00,819
Let us exchange greetings.
246
00:22:02,446 --> 00:22:04,406
I am Saeng-gang, an inspecting court lady.
247
00:22:04,906 --> 00:22:07,492
They say you handle spirits as a shaman.
248
00:22:07,576 --> 00:22:09,661
A shaman? Nonsense.
I do not even serve spirits.
249
00:22:09,745 --> 00:22:11,079
You are no shaman?
250
00:22:11,163 --> 00:22:13,790
-Then how will you hunt the pond spirit?
-None of your concern, so…
251
00:22:17,711 --> 00:22:19,463
Just do as I tell you.
252
00:22:21,965 --> 00:22:26,345
That thing on the ceiling kept me awake,
so I will sleep for now.
253
00:22:30,307 --> 00:22:32,559
-Much to be done.
-What is the matter with you?
254
00:22:33,977 --> 00:22:35,270
Come out!
255
00:22:35,354 --> 00:22:36,772
There is no time to lose.
256
00:22:44,404 --> 00:22:46,740
He must be the feng shui master.
257
00:22:47,324 --> 00:22:49,451
-Where?
-The one who just passed by.
258
00:22:50,786 --> 00:22:52,621
Walk straight.
259
00:22:53,830 --> 00:22:55,999
You are in the palace
as a feng shui master.
260
00:22:56,083 --> 00:22:57,793
Mind your conduct.
261
00:22:58,710 --> 00:23:01,671
I know nothing about feng shui.
262
00:23:02,589 --> 00:23:03,757
Good grief.
263
00:23:09,388 --> 00:23:10,472
You insolent wench.
264
00:23:10,555 --> 00:23:13,850
How dare you raise your head
and look me in the eye.
265
00:23:13,934 --> 00:23:15,477
Have you no manners?
266
00:23:19,398 --> 00:23:22,943
My apologies, ma'am.
I am a court maid from the inspectorate.
267
00:23:23,485 --> 00:23:27,364
By His Majesty's command, I brought
a feng shui master to Prince Yeongan.
268
00:23:30,575 --> 00:23:34,830
Leave. Her Majesty the Queen Dowager
has ordered that no one be admitted today.
269
00:23:38,875 --> 00:23:39,876
Goodness.
270
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,422
After all that talk about manners,
you came away with nothing but a scolding.
271
00:23:43,505 --> 00:23:44,673
Good grief.
272
00:23:47,676 --> 00:23:51,721
Well, have you had a look around?
No sign of the pond spirit in the room?
273
00:23:51,805 --> 00:23:54,683
How would I know?
It is not as if I can see through walls.
274
00:23:54,766 --> 00:23:56,309
Then what exactly can you do?
275
00:23:56,393 --> 00:23:57,352
Please!
276
00:23:57,853 --> 00:24:01,815
Why are you taking the scolding out on me?
For goodness' sake.
277
00:24:01,898 --> 00:24:04,526
You should at least feel some presence.
278
00:24:12,868 --> 00:24:14,870
His Majesty has sent a feng shui master.
279
00:24:17,539 --> 00:24:19,166
A feng shui master?
280
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:24,004
What on earth is His Majesty thinking?
281
00:24:24,087 --> 00:24:26,840
It is said that he is staying
in the quarters
282
00:24:26,923 --> 00:24:28,884
at the far east end of the East Palace.
283
00:24:29,384 --> 00:24:30,510
What?
284
00:24:31,136 --> 00:24:33,722
Is that not the place long plagued
by unnatural deaths?
285
00:24:34,556 --> 00:24:39,186
Yes, Your Majesty. It was left vacant
after so many sudden deaths at night.
286
00:24:42,522 --> 00:24:43,857
A feng shui master.
287
00:24:44,357 --> 00:24:46,902
What kind of man is he?
288
00:24:51,698 --> 00:24:52,991
Are you all right?
289
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:00,332
Have you lost your mind?
290
00:25:00,415 --> 00:25:03,919
You carry a great deal of Yang energy.
A rare constitution, indeed.
291
00:25:11,927 --> 00:25:14,471
His Majesty's judgment must have clouded
292
00:25:14,971 --> 00:25:17,265
to entrust such a task
to someone like you.
293
00:25:17,766 --> 00:25:20,477
He assigned you to me
because His Majesty does not trust me.
294
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:21,770
I am here
295
00:25:22,270 --> 00:25:25,565
only because he threatened my life.
296
00:25:26,066 --> 00:25:29,319
Damn, that bastard. He locks people up
just because he has some power.
297
00:25:30,487 --> 00:25:32,322
Are you speaking of His Majesty?
298
00:25:32,948 --> 00:25:34,491
-That is high treason!
-What?
299
00:25:34,574 --> 00:25:37,160
I meant Chil-bok
from the temple I lived in.
300
00:25:38,495 --> 00:25:41,039
Heavens. Just my luck.
301
00:25:43,917 --> 00:25:47,212
How long do you intend to keep walking?
302
00:25:47,712 --> 00:25:49,714
Are you out for a stroll?
303
00:25:52,133 --> 00:25:53,552
This will not do.
304
00:25:53,635 --> 00:25:55,804
Let us go to the pond
where the spirit appears.
305
00:25:55,887 --> 00:25:57,264
There is no need.
306
00:25:57,889 --> 00:26:00,475
I got there, and the spirit
had already moved on.
307
00:26:01,017 --> 00:26:04,354
It is not as if spirits are bound
to one place the way gwi-mae are.
308
00:26:05,605 --> 00:26:06,731
Gwi-mae?
309
00:26:07,774 --> 00:26:08,817
What is that?
310
00:26:09,317 --> 00:26:12,279
For goodness' sake. This is so bothersome.
311
00:26:13,738 --> 00:26:16,199
Who would know anything about spirits?
312
00:26:17,158 --> 00:26:21,037
Stop complaining and explain it to me.
I can start learning now.
313
00:26:22,289 --> 00:26:24,040
A gwi-mae
314
00:26:24,541 --> 00:26:27,043
does not come from a human death,
as spirits do.
315
00:26:27,544 --> 00:26:29,504
It forms when sinister forces of nature
316
00:26:29,588 --> 00:26:33,925
or the energy from human ill will
gather in one place.
317
00:26:34,009 --> 00:26:36,386
There was one
on the ceiling of my room earlier
318
00:26:38,054 --> 00:26:39,431
and another one over there.
319
00:26:44,185 --> 00:26:46,813
It has no soul,so it cannot be driven out like a spirit.
320
00:26:46,896 --> 00:26:48,607
It is more troublesome to handle.
321
00:26:49,107 --> 00:26:52,235
They torment peoplewith darkness in their hearts
322
00:26:52,736 --> 00:26:53,987
and bewitch them.
323
00:26:58,908 --> 00:26:59,993
Let us go.
324
00:27:00,076 --> 00:27:02,037
It is best to avoid them.
325
00:27:08,585 --> 00:27:11,504
Then is the pond spirit a gwi-mae as well?
326
00:27:12,005 --> 00:27:14,924
Gwi-mae do not hold grudges
against humans.
327
00:27:15,008 --> 00:27:17,552
-It is most likely a won-gwi.
-A won-gwi?
328
00:27:17,636 --> 00:27:20,096
-What is a won-gwi?
-Good grief.
329
00:27:24,225 --> 00:27:27,937
Among the many kinds of spirits,
common-gwi are souls lingering in regret,
330
00:27:28,021 --> 00:27:30,148
unable to pass on to the afterlife.
331
00:27:30,857 --> 00:27:33,068
They cause no real harm.
332
00:27:33,902 --> 00:27:36,863
Won-gwi are the souls of those
who died bearing deep resentment.
333
00:27:36,946 --> 00:27:40,283
They torment the one
who caused their resentment.
334
00:27:40,367 --> 00:27:42,452
As the resentment grows and takes form,
335
00:27:42,535 --> 00:27:45,705
it weighs down the soul
and binds it to the earth,
336
00:27:45,789 --> 00:27:47,165
keeping it from passing on.
337
00:27:51,336 --> 00:27:53,588
Only by getting rid of
that mass of resentment
338
00:27:55,173 --> 00:27:57,884
can the soul bound to the earth
be released to pass on.
339
00:27:58,885 --> 00:28:00,929
And even that will be no easy feat.
340
00:28:03,807 --> 00:28:07,477
The pond spirit…
Prince Yeongan… The pond spirit…
341
00:28:11,481 --> 00:28:14,150
Prince Yeongan
is being tormented by a spirit.
342
00:28:15,318 --> 00:28:18,029
I cannot believe she turned away people
sent by His Majesty.
343
00:28:18,571 --> 00:28:20,990
Does the Queen Dowager
have any sense at all?
344
00:28:21,491 --> 00:28:23,743
Huh? Well, well.
345
00:28:24,369 --> 00:28:27,747
You speak ill of the Queen Dowager?
You said it was treason for me to do so.
346
00:28:31,126 --> 00:28:34,879
More importantly,
why tear up all the perfectly good sheets?
347
00:28:35,547 --> 00:28:36,673
None of your concern.
348
00:28:38,842 --> 00:28:40,635
You seem quite at ease.
349
00:28:40,719 --> 00:28:43,930
We must see Prince Yeongan to banish
the spirit, yet you seem unconcerned.
350
00:28:44,013 --> 00:28:46,474
Of course I am concerned.
351
00:28:46,558 --> 00:28:51,020
If I fail to save the son of His Majesty,
I will be the one to die.
352
00:28:51,104 --> 00:28:52,731
It even leaves me sleepless at night.
353
00:28:53,231 --> 00:28:54,315
What I mean is,
354
00:28:54,399 --> 00:28:57,819
is it not pitiful that the child
is tormented by such a grotesque thing?
355
00:28:57,902 --> 00:29:00,488
I do not even know this child.
Why should it concern me?
356
00:29:02,115 --> 00:29:03,950
How can you think only of yourself?
357
00:29:04,451 --> 00:29:07,912
If you have the time,
look into that pond spirit instead.
358
00:29:07,996 --> 00:29:10,623
Who it was in life
and what grudge it bears.
359
00:29:10,707 --> 00:29:13,293
Only then can I get rid of
the pond spirit.
360
00:29:13,376 --> 00:29:16,087
It will be difficult.
Even if they know, they will not speak.
361
00:29:16,171 --> 00:29:18,673
Then go fetch a peach tree branch.
362
00:29:18,757 --> 00:29:20,049
One that grows eastward.
363
00:29:21,551 --> 00:29:24,804
-What for?
-You never simply say yes.
364
00:29:26,306 --> 00:29:27,599
Fetch it at once.
365
00:29:30,310 --> 00:29:31,144
This man, truly…
366
00:29:33,188 --> 00:29:35,356
Ask again, with proper respect!
367
00:29:36,024 --> 00:29:37,275
Be quick!
368
00:29:37,358 --> 00:29:39,527
Assist me? Nonsense.
She does not know a thing.
369
00:29:42,989 --> 00:29:45,658
Why does it have to be a branch
growing eastward?
370
00:29:53,583 --> 00:29:55,794
Here. This should do, should it not?
371
00:29:57,253 --> 00:29:59,881
I have heard that peach trees
drive away spirits.
372
00:30:00,632 --> 00:30:01,674
Well done.
373
00:30:03,301 --> 00:30:07,388
-How will you ward off spirits with… that?
-Oh, that feels good.
374
00:30:09,724 --> 00:30:11,184
Much better.
375
00:30:17,982 --> 00:30:21,236
-I almost died trying to reach it.
-All this just to scratch your back?
376
00:30:28,326 --> 00:30:30,328
I submit this report to you, Father.
377
00:30:31,079 --> 00:30:33,373
You may set aside your concern
378
00:30:33,456 --> 00:30:36,668
that he might uncover anythingabout the pond spirit
379
00:30:36,751 --> 00:30:40,004
because he is doing nothing at all.
380
00:30:40,588 --> 00:30:43,550
He stays in his room all day,speaking only of sleep.
381
00:30:52,433 --> 00:30:56,271
-Why does this keep happening?
-How many times has this happened?
382
00:30:56,354 --> 00:30:59,023
I know. The rumors of a spirit
in the East Palace seem to be true.
383
00:30:59,107 --> 00:31:00,191
So it seems.
384
00:31:00,275 --> 00:31:02,569
Prince Yeongan cannot take
even rice gruel.
385
00:31:02,652 --> 00:31:05,488
-Exactly. They say he is worse this time.
-Pardon me.
386
00:31:07,282 --> 00:31:09,325
What is going on?
387
00:31:15,832 --> 00:31:17,917
What on earth is happening to him?
388
00:31:20,753 --> 00:31:22,422
-Prince Yeongan!
-What ails him?
389
00:31:22,505 --> 00:31:24,507
Please come to your senses,
Prince Yeongan!
390
00:31:25,216 --> 00:31:28,344
-Do something at once!
-Prince Yeongan.
391
00:31:28,970 --> 00:31:31,598
-Come to your senses.
-Is he truly possessed by a spirit?
392
00:31:32,849 --> 00:31:34,809
What on earth should we do?
393
00:31:41,524 --> 00:31:43,067
Prince Yeongan is gravely ill.
394
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,701
-Already?
-What will you do?
395
00:32:00,835 --> 00:32:02,253
No other choice, then.
396
00:32:11,346 --> 00:32:13,348
What are you going to do with it…
397
00:32:20,521 --> 00:32:23,358
So are you going to Prince Yeongan?
398
00:32:23,441 --> 00:32:25,318
You should stay here. It is not safe.
399
00:32:32,158 --> 00:32:36,204
You never listen, do you?
I told you not to follow.
400
00:32:36,287 --> 00:32:38,081
I said you must go to Prince Yeongan.
401
00:32:38,164 --> 00:32:41,084
That is why I am here.
I am going to Prince Yeongan.
402
00:32:41,167 --> 00:32:42,710
What on earth are you trying to do?
403
00:32:42,794 --> 00:32:46,047
I have no choice
in letting you see me like this,
404
00:32:46,130 --> 00:32:49,884
but you must not tell anyone
what I am about to do.
405
00:32:54,722 --> 00:32:57,141
Why are you putting blood on the branch?
406
00:32:57,225 --> 00:32:59,811
So I may bring it into the other world.
407
00:33:00,311 --> 00:33:01,771
The other world? You mean…
408
00:33:03,272 --> 00:33:04,399
The Realm of Gwi.
409
00:33:06,192 --> 00:33:07,068
The Realm of Gwi…
410
00:33:07,151 --> 00:33:08,778
I may not come out of the water.
411
00:33:10,780 --> 00:33:14,158
-Even then, do not pull me up.
-Are you telling me to let you die?
412
00:33:14,242 --> 00:33:17,328
Yes. That is how I reach the Realm of Gwi.
413
00:33:19,330 --> 00:33:21,165
Oh, right. Since you followed me…
414
00:33:26,629 --> 00:33:30,800
Spirits may be listening.
Come closer so we can speak quietly.
415
00:33:45,356 --> 00:33:49,736
I lack Yang energy, so it would be best
for me to take something of yours.
416
00:33:57,368 --> 00:33:58,453
Well…
417
00:34:01,372 --> 00:34:02,915
You should go now.
418
00:34:04,500 --> 00:34:06,377
Remember what I told you to do.
419
00:34:08,796 --> 00:34:09,881
Look here.
420
00:37:47,348 --> 00:37:48,766
What should we do?
421
00:37:49,267 --> 00:37:51,143
What should we do about this?
422
00:37:52,770 --> 00:37:54,897
-Prince Yeongan!
-Prince Yeongan.
423
00:38:03,656 --> 00:38:05,533
Prince… Prince Yeongan!
424
00:38:22,049 --> 00:38:25,386
"I shall burn your vessel,shrouded in darkness."
425
00:38:59,670 --> 00:39:00,963
-Your Highness!
-Prince Yeongan!
426
00:39:01,047 --> 00:39:03,424
-Lady Jang, summon…
-Please come to your senses!
427
00:39:03,507 --> 00:39:05,426
-Summon the physician!
-Yes, ma'am.
428
00:39:31,369 --> 00:39:34,372
If Prince Yeongan shows
any signs of waking,
429
00:39:34,872 --> 00:39:36,999
let it see your blood.
430
00:39:37,583 --> 00:39:39,168
The window will be brief.
431
00:40:34,098 --> 00:40:35,516
I knew it would not work,
432
00:40:35,599 --> 00:40:37,685
not knowing the nature of that spirit.
433
00:40:57,997 --> 00:40:59,540
He truly is here.
434
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:12,845
Who are you?
435
00:41:14,054 --> 00:41:17,099
What grudge drives you
to kill the royal bloodline?
436
00:44:18,822 --> 00:44:22,117
