Sir. Your Majesty's spirits
have recovered!

Has it, indeed?

Yes, I am returning from
greeting Highness and Majesty.

I am delighted to hear that.
What a relief!

Your Majesty,
your decoction is here.

Can I get up now
and go about now?

Be strict with your regimen
and you'll fully recover.

Then no more illness
will haunt you.

You've done a great job.

Forgive my doubt, even
for a while, over your loyalty.

Your Majesty.

Doctor Yoo's wholehearted
acupuncture

worked like a charm
for your illness.

Please commend him
for his contribution.

I was about to give him
a grave punishment

for his lack of duty
toward the Prince.

But your earnest request
made me pardon his sin.

From now on,
do not neglect your duty.

I am blessed by your gracious
favor, Your Majesty.

Blessed by your gracious favor.

Sir.

Sir. Please forgive me.

Doctor Yoo.

I have caused you much pain.

Please forgive my wrongs.

Please don't.

When His Majesty asked me for
your whereabouts during the flight,

I even slandered you and
said that you might have fled,

and deserted your duty
to attend to His Majesty.

Let bygones be bygones.

Not only that, but
in the royal hospital...

Stop it.

I, as well, in the past...

I might have caused all this
knowing all your resentments.

I caused you to be estranged
from your master, Father.

And I was in the way
of your advancement.

It's human nature that you
felt mistreated because of me.

Sir...

More saddening is how
we keep consuming each other...

By being caught up
with such strong emotions.

Your remarkable talent
has been blocked by such hatred.

It is more frustrating that
your talent is not aptly used.

Sir.

Sir.

Sir! Sir!

What business here?

Pyungyang castle has fallen
to the invaders.

What! Then, what became
of my Hong Choon!

Aren't your family
still inside the castle?

What did I say?

I said it's was just a matter
of time before the castle fell.

We have to cross Amnok River
and seek refuge in Ming.

Has the cat got your tongue?

Who am I speaking to?

Here comes His Majesty!

Please be seated.

What has become of Prince?
Is he still alive?

Forgive our incompetence,
we're unable to confirm it.

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty, it is
painful to say this.

But Sirs Lim and Sunhwa,
who fled to Hamgyung...

have been captured
by the invaders.

- Your Majesty!
- Your Majesty!

If Pyungyang Castle was taken,
Weeju is far from safe.

Please be advised that
we must cross Amnok River.

I don't even know
what became of the Prince.

The Prince's life is at the hands
of these barbarous invaders.

I cannot and will not leave!

Your Majesty!

Hong Choon!

Ohgun!

- Madam.
- Madam.

Have you been well?

Ohgun, Ohgun...

You suffered long enough,
Chaeryung.

Prince.

Prince.

How can we face you,
after such a big loss?

Please chastise us, Prince.

How is my father now?

His Majesty had recovered, but

he went bedridden again,
upon hearing the news about

Prince and Sir Lim.

I must see my father.

- Sir.
- Sir.

You did a great job.

Do you know what
became of my family?

Nothing's left for us to say.

Then?

As the castle surrendered,
we were ordered to retreat.

So I tried to look
for your families.

But it was like
an infernal hell back there...

Couldn't find them.

Sir.

Yes, Prince.

Doctor Hur.

Ming finally decided to back us up
with its forces.

Currently, the backup forces
from Ming, led by General Lee,

have arrived near the castle
and preparing to recapture it.

That explains why the invaders
were slow to go up north.

It should've taken them
only three days to reach here.

There is more.

The loyal troops across the nation
are winning against them.

Furthermore, the naval forces
of General Lee Sunsin crushed

those invaders and blocked
their land supply route.

At this speed, we will
completely repel.

So did you hear anything
about your family?

I asked people around,
but nobody seems to know.

The Royal Physician, over
there , is my friend.

So please let me see him.

How dare you come in here!

- Please, sir...
- Yangtae!

Ohgun!

- Sir.
- Ohgun!

- Yangtae!
- Joon!

You are all alive and well.
What about my mother and Gyum?

They are all safe and sound.
Don't you worry.

Where are they?

They are in Yongchun.

- Yongchun?
- Yes.

They escaped and headed to
Weeju to see you.

But your mother insisted
to go back to Yongchun.

She said Weeju is the place
every refugee will gather.

And you are busy
attending to His Majesty...

So she said we should not
cause any trouble.

Yangtae, you go and tell them.

The backup forces from Weeju
are on their way.

And the local troops are
winning against the invaders.

So we should be going back
to Seoul before long.

Is that true?

Yes, it is. Go tell
them what I said.

I will request for
a furlough to visit Yongchun.

Yes, Joon.

What business?

I crave a word with you.

What is it?

Do you know what this is?

It is the news of victory
from all over the nation.

The Ming's backup force has
recovered Pyungyang Castle.

And continues to defeat
the invaders in Hwanghaedo.

Not to mention the loyal troops
led by Kwak and Cho.

General Gwon Yul's government
troops won at Haengju Castle on a hill.

General Lee Sunsin's naval forces
are on a winning battle streak,

in Okpo, Hansanpo and Dangpo.

It is all thanks to
the virtue of Your Majesty.

No, it isn't. I feel so humble.

So what business here?

You tell His Majesty.

When I was on my escape
with the medical books...

I saw hundreds of people
dying miserably in this war.

Most of them died not
because of guns and swords,

but because of endemics
and diseases from the battles.

So I thought that new medical
books must be compiled.

So, that the people didn't
die in vain...

So as to offer solace to
their unvindicated souls...

For those who weren't
even given medical care ...

I know many medical books,
from our ancestors, are in use.

And those from China are a guide
for many medical officers.

But I realized there is no
medical book for regular people.

Now you have recovered and
return to the palace.

If you bestow your order on me, then
I'll begin compiling a new medical book

led by the Royal Physician and
other medical officers.

Please do consider my suggestion,
Your Majesty.

I once had the same thought.

Do publish a medical book
that remains for generations.

I agree with Your Grace.

Han Yang

We've finished classifying
the medical books.

From the historical archives at
Eui Bang Go and Chun Won Ok Chaek...

To nearly the
200 Chinese medical books.

We will start editing
the medical book based on this.

There is something
I would like to ask.

For your standard,
in the course of compilation...

You said it can be classified into
internal and external,

various diseases, decoction,
acupuncture and moxibustion.

To me, that standard
alone is unfamiliar.

I, as well. I've never seen
such standards in other books.

All is well with the types of
disease and how to cure them.

Why did you divide them
into internal and external?

The reason I set up like that...

It is to cover minds, spirits,
bodies, shapes and organs...

As well as head, face,
limbs, veins...

muscles, pulses,
bones and fleshes.

So, as to discuss ways
to preserve one's own body.

This medical book we compile...

Is not a mere mention
of diseases and cure.

We must organize and
systemize the entire medication.

There are countless numbers
of medical books in the world,

But the medical arts
have become more vague,

Clumsy doctors fail to realize
the deep principle of the whole,

And they operate in their own way
or stick to the old ways.

It is a grave matter,
since it cost people's lives,

That's the top priority
in compiling our medical book.

While we refer to
as many books as possible,

we must still set a clear standard.

Even more important is the
research on our medicinal herbs.

I believe that the herbs
grown on this soil

are the most appropriate
for our body.

Also, the effort to disseminate
such fact is insufficient.

Consequently, there have been
countless of innocent people,

dying as quality local herbs are
right in front of their eyes.

Even the ordinary people
who can't afford to visit doctors

must be provided
with easy solutions.

That is another important task
we must undertake,

I heard you stayed up
for 3 consecutive nights.

I fear that you might harm
your own health.

There is much more to do
than I expected.

It'll take years just
to classify the references.

If I edit out the contents
of each book...

and summarize the inquiry
results on the herbs.

It will take even more years.

And, that is why you
must look after yourself.

I feel increasingly impatient
thinking we started too late.

I believe it just may be
the most crucial task

that I undertake as the
medical officer.

I am determined
to produce a medical book

that is well organized enough
for people to understand it.

It was the earnest aspiration
of my master and the great Priest.

And it has become
my passionate dream.

A decade from now...
Or, even if it takes more longer,

I will complete this task.

I remember a time
when I learned from the master.

Your eyes were sparkling
with such passion.

I brought the wrong type of water
and was scolded by him.

So he left the pharmacy
in early dawn,

And asked me what water
should be used for herbs.

When I heard there are 33 types,

I was startled.

What you have taught me
still remains in my heart.

Doctor Hur.

I should be away now.

Isn't she a nurse
from the Queen's Palace?

She is.

What business here, then?

I need to have a word with you.

Editing a medical book is,
I suppose, for subordinates.

Not for the Royal Physician.

Delegation is crucial
if you aspire to be a leader.

Why did you ask me to be here?

Tomorrow, His Majesty will order
you to look after Prince Sung.

You will probably know
when you see him in person.

But I was told his condition
is too grave to survive.

That's why I needed to see you.

Concerns mount over
his arbitrariness in the court.

In case he recovers
with your medication...

It may backfire on you and
you might get yourself in trouble.

How absurd is that!

The Royal Physician post
is not only about medication.

It's also about politics
to look over the situation.

Do you see what I mean?

My master always told me that...

the doctor must see the illness,
not the patient's status.

With all due respect, sir.

I'll do my best in looking
after the patient as the doctor.

I have no knowledge
about forming factions.

To me, the patient comes first.

It is thus more important
to save the life of the patient.

If you ask me what I'd choose;
between patient and authority...

I will always side with the patient,
no matter how much you ask.

Therefore, I will do my part
as the medical officer.

I should be going now.

He has a special relation
with Prince Sung.

It was too much to ask of him.

- Sir.
- What is it?

Prince Sung has
proceeded to the court.

Has he eventually recovered?

He is presented to His Majesty,
along with the physician.

Looking at your complexion ...

I believe I can be
relieved of an anxiety.

It is due to your graciousness,
Your Majesty.

Your recovery is not due to my
graciousness.

It is all on account of
the physician's competence.

I also agree, Your Majesty.

I heard you should
rest for a few more days.

But there was something
I wanted to discuss with you.

The aftermath of the war
is now upon us.

I think I should reward
ths national contributors.

I will leave this up you. Thus,
you must be strict in assessing.

So that every contributor
receives what they deserve.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Especially, Doctor Hur Joon must
be promoted for his patriotism.

Since he cured my illness and
contributed to saving this country.

Sir, something
came up. Sir!

Calm down. What is it?

Say this instantly. What is
it that makes you impatient?

I extend my congratulations, Sir.

Your contribution during war,
looking after His Majesty's

safety has been acknowledge
as a meritorious subject.

And you've been promoted
to prime minister position.

Is that a joke?

Even meritorious lieges, such
as Park and Lee

were only promoted
to the second degree.

He's been promoted to
a prime minister position?

Should I even say more?

Our people were excluded
from the promotions.

Will you just sit there
and do nothing about this?

Should we be doing
something about it now?

Hur Joon must go.

He's the son of a concubine.

If such low ranks
become prime minister,

the officials will not stand
for it.

Probe deeply into
everything about him.

There is no one who has no fault.

Madam!

Madam.

I extend my congratulations,
Minister Madam.

What are you saying?

The Royal Physician's contribution
during the war was acknowledged.

And he's been promoted to
the prime minister position.

The prime minister position?

The prime...

Do you even know
what the prime minister means?

Advanced to the
rank of prime minister ...

Now you're the wife of
the Prime Minister.

Mother.

You worked hard.

Yes, whatever.
You did hard work.

Prime minister position?

It is!

Unyun...
what was the name?

At any rate, it's the rank
of prime minister.

I knew it. I knew Dahee will be
bestowed with something great.

The sky must've given him wings.
He keeps rising higher.

Her current position is
already intimidating.

But a prime minister's wife!

I'm shuddering!

Dahee is not that type of a person,
you know that!

She will always be
the same, no matter what.

I'll say!

Unyun must give up
on Gyum now.

Gyum is the son of the prime
minister,but you're low rank.

I don't care if it's Excellency
or sovereign lord.

I will marry Gyum!

Oh my!
Look what she spits out now.

Watch your tongue!
Somebody might hear you.

No faults and weaknesses?
How could this be?

You useless thing!

Then we should make things up.

To bury someone for good...

There is no better way than
to rely on the ethical faults.

Come to think of it, there is one.

Continue.

He is known to be intimate
with the Nurse Yejin.

For over a decade from
the days at the public hospital...

They have been really close.

Scandal between
the royal doctor and the nurse...

There was one who was
dismissed from the former King.

Just drop a little hint, then
officials will soon enter an appeal.

Sir, sir!

Look here. There you are.

It's been a while.

Here! Take my baggage.

This isn't the time for that.

Doctor Hur is under a barrage
of appeals to impeach him.

Appeal?
What on earth are you saying?

It's so obvious.
They gossip over his birth.

So they want to reject
his advancement.

For that reason, His Majesty had
already refused their opinions once.

So do not worry.

No, it's not about that, sir.

Then what should
the appeal be about?

They insist that Doctor Hur
and the royal nurse have

had a decade old affair...

What?

Let me see you.

Is that true?

Yes, sir.

Think back to the days when
they're were at the public hospital.

Doctor Hur was intimate
with the nurse Yejin.

Then what about
his unprecedented promotion?

It can't be done because of
the officials' appeals.

What are you doing now?

Every time I empty my seat...

You never work and get together.

Busy gossiping around.

I might as well
sit here all day long!

- You!
- Who? Me?

Come hither.

You say to me exactly
what you said before.

I don't understand.

The scandal between
Doctor Hur and the nurse?

Hey!

I'm not asking this out of curiosity.

I'm asking this to tighten
moral standards at the pharmacy.

Elaborate as much as you know.

Why do you keep making
absurd remarks here and there?

It's not absurd.

It's spread around the palace.

All around the palace?

What a dirty trick!

I'll find out who started all this!

I'll absolutely find out
the one who made up such a lie!

And will impose leg-screw torture.

Are you Yejin?

Yes, madam.

Follow me.

Majesty, it's the nurse
from the Queen Palace, Yejin.

Send her in.

Be seated.

Head up.

Is the nurse here?

The nurse followed the court lady.

I see. Be gone now.

She went to His Majesty
if she followed the court lady.

For crying out loud.
The scandal further worsens.

Is your name Yejin?

Yes, Your Majesty.

She is the nurse who
entertained the ambassadors

from Ming at Mohwagwan.

She displayed her talent and
settled the crisis at the court.

She accomplished
a remarkable feat.

I remember it as well.

While in the royal flight to Weeju...

You looked after
myself with Doctor Hur.

Do you know why I called you?

No, Your Majesty.
Forgive my ignorance.

I acknowledge Doctor Hur's
contributions during war.

And ordered him to be
promoted to a minister position.

But it is strongly opposed
by the officials at the court.

I have known him
for over a decade now.

So I don't mind
such criticisms over him.

But the current scandal over him...

is too serious to overlook
considering the given evidence.

And that scandal includes you.

Is it true that you have been
intimate with him for years?

What are you waiting for?
Tell His Majesty the truth!

Your Majesty.

My father was a doctor.

He wandered around the country
with a bulk of acupuncture ...

Looking after patients.

But he died of a plague.

So I spent my childhood at the
noted physician Yoo's pharmacy.

When I came to the age of 19...

I met Doctor Hur,
as Doctor Yoo's disciple.

From the days when he wandered
around Mt. Jiri as a herbalist.

To the days when he became janitor
and caretaker at the pharmacy.

He did his best to
become a compassionate doctor...

Sincerely understanding
his patients.

He doesn't even hesitates
to suck the bloody pus...

out of the patient's
scars with his mouth.

He spent years living
with lepers to cure them.

People are totally averse
to be even near them.

I have embraced him
in my heart until today.

I genuinely respect
him and adore him.

But, Your Majesty.

What I feel about him...

is the feeling I am
lucky to be with him ...

under the same sky,
same place.

Doctor Hur wasn't
afraid of death...

for the sake of his love
beyond social position.

His wife also had to suffer
much for her husband ...

All of which, I can't even imagine.

How can I dare to tarnish
their genuine love?

Your Majesty.

I sincerely respect
and adore Doctor Hur.

But it is something that
I must cherish in my heart.

If that is something for
which I must be blamed,

I willingly
take that punishment.

But I don't want him to be
blamed for a blatant scandal.

Please reconsider.

I will go present myself to
His Majesty.

I will speak about this
wrongfulness...

That has unjustly been
imposed upon you.

It means nothing to me...

whether I become a public patriot
or a prime minister, if it is

by sacrificing your honor.

Doctor Hur.

Please don't mind me.

I feel so painful
that I was in your way.

Lady.

Please don't say a word.

I know how you feel.

- Sir.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

Proceed with Doctor Hur's
promotion as planned.

But what about
the official's appeals?

Please do as I say.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Didn't you know?

That Yejin has had
feelings for you

for a long time...

But you lived so peacefully
without any worries.

You're a bad man, you know.

What is it?

Nurse.

There is a phrase
in an old poem.

When I was eight,
I secretly looked into the mirror.

And I drew my eyebrows longer.

When I was 11, I put on
clothes with lotus flower print.

And I like going for
mountain vegetables.

When I was 12,
I learned to play Geomungo.

I didn't let go of its silver box.

When I was 14, I often
hid behind my parents.

Because I felt shy in front of boys.

When I was 15,
I felt sad about the spring.

So I turned my face and cried
holding onto the swing rope.

It is the poem by Lee Sang-eun
from Tang Dynasty.

When I saw someone
in one spring day.

I was saddened
by the spring for no reason.

Whenever I think of him,
I feel pain in the chest.

- Sanghwa.
- Yes.

I think I should leave
the palace now.

Nurse.

I think I have to return
to Samjuk Temple.

I'll spend the rest of my life looking
after patients, serving the great Priest.

Before I leave,
there's a favor I'd like to ask.

You must assist Doctor Hur
with your utmost.

In order to complete the medical
book he's undertaken...

Many years of painstaking
effort will be required.

It'd be best if I stay and help him.

But circumstances will not
allow me to.

Sanghwa, you must
stay by his side.

Even the sounds
of the scops owl are sorrowful.
