Episode 4

Who are you?

Move out of the way!

Just because you tell me to move, doesn't mean I have to move.

You're being rude.

Call Hong Sul Joo immediately!

Hong Sul Joo?

Just because you're dressed fancy, did you lose your mind?

Hey Lady! When I'm talking nicely, hurry up and get lost!

W-Who are you?

Hey. You're being rude.

Aigoo!

T-That person!

Ah wait...

I think there was a bit of a misunderstanding!

These bastards are disturbing the sleeping tiger!

Aigo! Aish!

Aish!

Huh? This bastard...

What the heck! How dare you get in...

Oh you're that lady.

Where is the teacher?

He's over there.

Go! Go!

Wow! This place is huge.

Yup, it has to be at least this big to have a good match.

Right?

-Do you know each other? -No I do not.

What do you mean you don't? We've now met, so now we know each other.

Anyhow, you look like a fair lady, but why does your hand look so rough?

I'm sorry, teacher.

It's dangerous for a lady to be walking around alone, right?

So this person is your Tujeon teacher, right? (Traditional Korean Card Game)

Why is a young lady like you not getting married and just playing Tujeon?

And also, with Tujeon, you need to learn it from a skilled player, like me.

But this guy seems to be quite old, and has a bit of a weird gleam in his eye.

Watch.

Well... Well this is s-supposed to change so...

Do you want a drink?

Of course I would!

If you don't have any more business left with us, then you should...

Business? Of course I still have some business left with you folks.

I've marked this lady to be my wife from today onwards.

You little!

Other people may not know it, but I know from just one glance.

That you are going to be my wife.

Do you really want to d-die?!

Now now.

Sit down. He's just at the prime time of his youth.

Forgive me.

Thanks to you, I had an enjoyable time.

Follow me.

If my wife is leaving, then I will have to go as well!

Ouch! That's hot!

Hey you immature kid, acting like an adult already. Do you really want to get married that badly?

Then

you can start by paying the bills first.

I think we have a misunderstanding. Those people will pay the bills.

Those dishes were your wife's.

And the dishes here, you ate them.

Is this enough?

As a commemoration of me meeting my wife today, it's on me,

so take this and don't be too grateful.

Hey kid, by looking at your attire, you'll get a memorial service before your wedding ceremony.

But don't be too upset, I'll at least take care of your expenses for you to go to the afterlife.

Here.

The thing that moves this world is

not the King nor the high ranking officials, but golds.

Just

money.

From today onwards, you take care of the this, Dam Seo.

Yes, Teacher.

Aish!

This bastard. As he eats a lot, he must have a long life line.

While seeing you off to the afterlife, I might just die before you out of my impatience.

It seems you've appeared again when we were having so much fun, My Lord.

Stand him up.

So, you're a gambler going around all of Joseon Peninsula, right?

Why don't you take a guess? Is it the front side or the back side?

-It's the front side. -Are you confident?

I'll even bet my hand that it's the front side.

You're willing to bet your hand over 1 nyang?

If not, I'll be your servant.

This kid... hm...

What is your name?

My name?

W-What's so important with names, anyway?

-It's G-gae Ttong. -What? Gae Ttong?

Is that even a name for a person?

Just send him off.

Okay.

-Thanks. -Wait.

The one who knows the importance of 1 nyang is a true gambler.

Anyways, you're this Gae Ttong's wife.

So don't have any other thoughts.

Hong Sul Joo.

Yes, my Lord.

Do you think that this gambling den is still yours?

What should I say...

It's kind of... puzzling... to answer.

It's obviously yours.

Prince Yeoning (Later King Yeongjo)

This alcohol, the alcohol has run out.

What are you doing, not getting more alcohol?

Did you swallow the brazier?

It seems like your mouth is about to spout flames.

What?

What? What are you going to do just by glaring?

Why this...

You pay.

What?

Sorry.

Hey, put in money and get money. One nyang will turn into two,

and 10 nyangs will turn into 20.

Here, here!

Okay! Not there!

Here. If you get this right, I'll give you double.

If you get this wrong, you lose everything.

Choose one.

I don't think it's that one.

It's only daytime and you're already drunk.

Don't meddle in. Originally, the gamble has to be followed by a person's luck and spirit.

I have a good luck and a high spirit.

Since you met me, you're right about being lucky.

What is he saying?

Okay.

Open these two first.

Why? Should I open it for you?

Since these two are empty, I should be right.

Why? Is that not right?

Then, open it.

It's double.

Thank you.

It seems like all you have is your body.

You should conserve even one nyang.

Are the rumors true? Does he act like a hooligan?

Yes. In the daytime, he's already drunk, gambles, and even gets into fights.

But, his wise eyes were still the same.

It seems like I will have to confirm it with my own two eyes.

Grandpa, what are you doing, not sleeping?

Aishi, really.

Why do I keep hallucinating?

Relax your shoulders. Here, straight.

Become my wife.

Would you become my wife?

Were you following me?

Am I a dog? Why would I follow you?

That hand.

The calluses on the palm of your left hand and on the thumb and index finger of your right hand

I can tell you enjoy the archery.

And you're a young lady in the blooming age.

Then, what are you? Except an archery teacher.

Stop bothering me.

Gosh, couldn't I at least know your name?

This flower...

Next time, I will slice your neck.

Why is she pretty even when she's angry?

Oh my! It's my first time seeing you.

A palanquin bearer.

Come here. I will make you feel good today.

Well I... I don't have much m-money...

Oh come on! We all know palanquin workers get a lot of money.

Don't be like that and just come here.

Orabeoni, why are you so irritable?

Did something bad happen?

Irritable?

Let's just drink!

Sit down. I said sit.

Why are you so embarrassed?

Oh my! Look at his arms!

He must have really carried some palanquin before.

Oh my! Look at his thighs!

You are touching my leg so casually.

In order to express my gratitude for your attendance here at the Wol Hyang Restaurant,

we have prepared a special performance, so

please enjoy.

Tonight, Prince Yeoning will go to the Wol Hyang Restaurant, so

remember his face well.

Prince Yeoning. The King's child.

My enemy.

What are you up to?! Huh?! Nice seeing you again!

- You again? -Who are you staring so intently at, huh?!

Do you want me to pull out your eyeballs?

Is that woman even your lover?

What?

Of course she is! She's my lover!

She's going to be my wife, so mind your own business!

And don't appear in front of me again!

What will you do if I don't do that?

Since my girl's beauty is astounding,

it seems the two of you have lost your rationality.

If you really want my girl, then let's do it this way.

The person with the lowest number will win.

And the person that wins will win my girl.

Good. But,

a win without losing anything, is not a win at all.

Fine. I won't state this twice.

What about stripping our clothes off? Even the underwear.

Fine. A man will not go back upon his words.

Bring it on.

Have I not told you this before? I'm a gambler.

A gambler you say?

We definitely said that the person with the lowest number will win.

- Because there's nothing, I win then.-What is this?

- What kind of bullshit is this?! - There was only one rule.

Didn't you say the person with the lowest number will win?

You wouldn't go back on your words, now would you?

Strip. Your underwear as well.

Ah, this is something you couldn't see even if you paid for it.

But you should have just drank. You should not have started to bet people on the line.

Isn't this against the Nation's law?

Your Highness, Prince Yeoning.

It's you again?

Ah, do you know who I am?

You dig around about me behind my back like a rat,

so how could I not possibly know you?

Lee In Jwa?

Ah, was there another fate like this? (What a coincidence)

Because of a single rat that has been digging around the gambling den recently,

I also, have been getting severe headaches in trying to find it.

Your Highness, what should we do now?

While Your Highness was gambling away,

it so happened that the Chief of Investigation

was present here as well.

Please forgive my interruption.

If you're done drinking, come out now!

Yes sir!

Move!

You will dare arrest me?

For what reason would I arrest you, Your Highness?

But, for these people, who have broken the Nation's law,

will not be able to escape their punishment.

No matter how strict the Nation's law is,

I was just enjoying myself a bit, so

I'm sure you can overlook this incident just once.

If I had not seen it with my own eyes, I might have.

But I'm deeply sorry, Your Majesty.

WAIT!

L-Look here. This lady has done nothing wrong.

-Done nothing wrong? -Yes, sir.

I was the one who made the bet, and

I am the one who made a ruckus by taking my clothes off.

So how could you say that that lady has committed any wrongs?

You're being rude!

It is the Nation's strict law to punish everyone who participate in this type of gambling!

Then if that's the case, the punishment that that lady will receive,

I will receive it instead.

Do you not even know that even a strong and healthy man can become mamed or even die from getting hit 30 times?

I don't care.

Is that so?

Then I will fulfill your foolish wish.

Take him away.

Why did you not

inform me you were going to do this?

If I had informed you, what difference would it have made?

Because of me, an innocent person is about to receive punishments.

Then that must be that man's fate.

You. Come see me.

Did this event take place because of me?

That was not planned to harm you, Your Highness.

You serve my hyungnim (older brother), so I'm not sure if I can believe that.

I just wanted to see if the rumors that were going around were true.

The rumor that during the day, you're an alcoholic, and during the night, you are a playboy.

And so, you have no interest or ambition in politics.

And? Were you able to confirm it?

It seems it is raining.

Before it becomes a heavy downfall, you should get going.

So, what did you see?

He has the tiger.

And on top of all that, he doesn't just have one tiger, but two.

I was also quite surprised.

I never thought there would be a person who had the same physiognomy as yours, My Lord.

It can't be... You're saying that person has the exact same features as I do?

28!

I'm Gae Ttong! I won't die!

29!

I SAID I'M GAE TTONG!

30!

Aigoo, I thought you abandoned me.

Dam Seo.

Huh?

That's my name.

Ah, Dam Seo? Well this must be fate...

What are you doing?

Aigoo, just take it!

Since I'm healthy, I don't need things like that. Watch.

Are you an idiot?

Why would you carelessly mistreat your body like that?

Did you think someone would give you recognition for doing that?

Well no... I was just...

No matter how hard you try, no one will recognize you.

You will just be a person that will never escape being poor.

You have a sad existence like that.

I!

I just need one person to recognize me.

Just one person. And that is the person who will become my wife.

Hey what happened to your bottom? Did you get beat by a club?

Why this little brat must have caused trouble in Hanyang!

Hey you! Why are you acting like this?

H-Hey G-Gae Ttong!

Gae Ttong!

Father! Why am I Gae Ttong?

Just come out here!

I'm asking you why I am Gae Ttong.

You said I was a noble.

So why?

So why? Out of all the chances in Heaven, why did I come out worse than a beggar?

Just why?!

Crown Prince Yoon (Later Gyeongjong, future King of Joseon)

Bullseye!

How have you been, Your Highness?

I have been well all thanks to you. But for what reason have you come here today?

Today I came to see His Majesty, and I plan to lessen his burden as well.

You want to see His Majesty?

Yes, but for now, Your Highness just needs to shoot some arrows with me.

King.

Sookjong

He is my Baduk teacher.

A Baduk teacher you say...

My name is Lee In Jwa.

Your Majesty. May I dare to ask an audience with you?

You want an audience with me?

Yes, Your Majesty.

I have something for you to consider.

Something to consider?

It seems you really have something you wish to tell me about.

You have no fear.

Your having an audience with the King

and yet you seem to have no fear and seem dignified.

It's almost as if you are becoming the King.

You speak highly of me. How could I ever dream of that?

The previous General of Training, Yi Heui Jin, and the Left Prime Minister Yi Won Jing,

Were your grandparents, right?

What? Did you really think that I would not know that?

Being a baduk teacher is a good disguise. But the truth is, you're planning to hide behind the Crown Prince

and govern everything for yourself, right?

How could I ever possibly do such a thing? You speak too highly of me, Your Majesty.

Do you resent me?

Actually. Do you want to kill me?

Because I am the person who ruined your family.

Me.

Your Majesty, the ones who were blinded by greed, and the ones who were involved in the factional war,

how could you not have taken those measures against those Officials?

I do not resent you.

During the years of Monkey, Snake, and Dog,

That was the result of your great decision for the people of Joseon, Your Majesty.

Raise your head.

You're speaking the truth.

Your eyes tell me it is the truth.

So then what is your reason for using the disguise as a Baduk teacher to see me?

Your Majesty. I'm sure you already know the answer to your question.

What is your reason for being so hesistant?

I am here to tell you

that you should step down from the throne and let the Crown Prince govern.

Let me hear your reasons.

If we have the Crown Prince govern, the Norons (one of the two political faction in the Court) will be against that,

but if we don't do that, the Sorons (one of the two political faction faction in the Court) will also not be pleased.

But Your Majesty, it is said that no one is able to stop water with just their barehands,

and therefore, no one can stop a flowing river.

The decision of letting the Crown Prince govern is just like the flow and current of the river. (Meaning it is bound to happen)

So, why are you unnecessarily worrying about this decision?

Unnecessarily worrying?

Is that so? Then it's quite an easy decision then.

But you.

Do you know of a 100 eyed and 1000 eared monster?

Are you talking a monster that rains blood and eats human flesh?

So you do know. Do you perhaps

wish to become that monster?

You speak too highly, Your Majesty.

I just wish to be the Crown Prince's baduk teacher, no more no less.

That is all I want.

Is that so?

Then, that means you will have no interest in politics.

Yes, Your Majesty.

How could a person like me ever wish to participate in politics?

How did it go?

Do you know of a 100 eyed and 1000 eared

monster?

Huh?

Even though I may not have any interest in politics

But I do have interest for that throne.

Just you wait. I will one day definitely

take that throne from you.

For how long are you going to live like that? Everyday, all you do is drink, play with women, play Tujeon, and even fist fight!

As a descendant of the King, are you not embarrassed? How could you be such a hooligan...

Yes! I am a hooligan!

So what if I am a hooligan? So what if I am a playboy?

If I live like this or that, what difference does it make?

Your Majesty should also stop caring for me now!

Your Majesty!

For now, learn to be more respectful and careful. That is the punishment I am giving to you as a mother.

Your Majesty. Was that good enough? Would that do?

You did well. You endured it very well.

Please endure it over and over again. You have to survive this in order to gain benefits.

You must survive, if you wish to inherit the throne.

It seems the once lowly water maid, has gained some power now.

This is all thanks to you, My Lord.

Wait. How were you able to gather that much?

Father! What is all this?

What do you mean "What is this?" That's the money we're going to use to make you a Noble.

N-Noble?

What are you doing, brat? Hurry and take off your clothes!

What are you doing? Hurry up!

H-H-Hot!

If you do this, it will cool down a bit.

Sheesh, making such a big deal out of this.

What are you complaining for? What? Are you embarrassed?

This isn't something to be embarrassed of when it's between father and son!

I said I'll do this by myself.

This brat, even after I've taken care of you for the past 20 years... Hurry and take it off!

Woah! Woah!

Why are you like this?

You're a big kid, but you're such a crybaby.

Aigoo.

Ow! Ow! Ow!

- Come over here! -I told you before to not hit my butt!

- Come here! -I'm going to spray you with water if you come any closer!

I'm going to spray it!

Do I look good?

Here turn around a bit!

My back side? How is it?

Wow! You look nice! Here turn around again!

How is it?

The clothes you have will be wasted with that face.

Aish! What are you saying? Look at this face!

Hey turn around! Turn around!

Father.

If you're a noble, don't you have a noble-like name?

A noble-like name?

Of course there is one. It's in the family registry book.

Family registry book?

What does it matter if they do this or that. They're all going to die anyway.

I don't have a husband. Why do I keep seeing these men so often?

This place is the same as usual.

And you're also the same as usual.

Is this really you, orabeoni? (Older brother)

I don't have a good relationship with orabeoni like this. So what's the matter?

After gaining some money, and sleeping in warm places...

Get to the point.

There is one thing that's been on my mind still.

The Family Registry Book.

Isn't a Noble's family registry book practically money?

No! I said you can't have the family registry book!

Hold still!

No! I said you can't have that!

So what's the point of you coming back now to look for it?

It's for a child. My child.

Wow. For that newborn baby? Well too bad. The family registry book isn't here anymore.

Actually, orabeoni. Do you have 300 nyangs?

If you can pay me that, I have methods on getting it back.

Family Registry Book

Family Registry Book? Is this perhaps the Family Registry Book?

It is the Family Registry Book! The Registry Book!

From now on, your name will be Dae Gil.

Baek Dae Gil!

The 13th generation from Nampo, Baek Dae Gil!

Dae Gil? Baek Dae Gil?

I am no longer Gae Ttong now.

I'm a noble! A noble I say!

I'm a noble now!

Dae Gil! He is the 13th generation from Nampo, Baek Dae Gil!

Sook Bin's child?

That Gae Ttong is Baek Man Geum's child?

Yes! He even came back to buy back the Family Registry Book.

Fate is quite a hard thing to predict.

Are you there, Dam Seo?

Tonight, with the death of one man, we will proceed with our plans.

Dam Seo, you personally instigate the plan.

My Lord! Would you accept my drink?

You'll give me a drink?

Oh wait, My Lord!

You kind of look like Gae Ttong. Are perhaps him by any chance?

I'm Baek Dae Gil.

Baek Dae Gil! He's Baek Dae Gil!

My Lord! Which generation are you from Nampo?

The... The...

Actually, I totally forgot it!

You are the 13th generation!

You are the 13th generation from Nampo, Baek Dae Gil!

My Lord! Haha!

-Hey look. -Man, you're so loud today.

It seems our orabeoni will go to the afterlife happy now.

Why are you here at this hour?

I do feel bad to tell you this,

but don't be too upset with me. I'll even bury you at a sunny place.

What kind of nonsense are you spouting?

Well anyway, today is a good day,

so stop dawdling around here and just go home.

I do feel a little bad about this. Oh what should I do?

On a great day like this,

do you really want to feel the fury of Dae Gil's (my) fists?

Dae Gil!

Hey kid, next time, don't interfere.

Since you were the one who drew the blade first,

don't resent me, okay?

Noonim! Aigoo noonim!

Let's leave Hanyang!

There is nothing more for us to do here! Let's go!

You must not kill Baek Dae Gil.

He talks shit. You're telling me to hold it in when I've been attacked? Huh?!

Hey get your weapons ready! I'm going to end this all today!

Which way did they go?

That way! T-That w-way!

Are you alright? Gae Ttong!

Are you okay?

Of course I'm alright. Do you think I'll die like this?

If I die like this, then I am not your son.

That's right. You just need to survive.

Gae Ttong, let's go.

Stop wasting your time talking, and let's move!

Let's go! Let's go!

-Let's go! -There's a boat over there!

Get in the boat!

Push it!

Let's go, let's go!

Shoot them.

But...

Why are you hesitating?

During your time here, did you fall in love with that man?

That's not it.

Anyway, you are this Gae Ttong's bride, so don't think otherwise.

I!

I just need one person who will recognize me.

Just one person-the person who will be my bride.

Teacher, I...

Hurry and row!

I will one day take your child from you.

Gae Ttong...

Gae Ttong? I am Dae Gil. Baek Dae Gil.

Gae Ttong...

How many times do I have to tell you?

What are you doing?

Father, father!

Man Geum!

Father! Father!

How could this happen? What happened?

Orabeoni!

Gae Ttong, from now on, listen to my words carefully.

Why aren't you coming onto the boat?! Get on!

First, get on the boat! Hurry!

-Hurry! -You bastard!

This is the last time, so listen to my words carefully.

No, this isn't the last time! You aren't going to die. I said you aren't going to die!

If you can, don't gamble,

and move away to some faraway countryside,

and don't even think about taking revenge, and just...

and just live your life, okay? Now just go.

-Got it?- NO! I'm going to live with you!

Until I die, I will live with you!

Get on! GET ON!

-Get those bastards! -Orabeoni!

Stop right there!

Elder...

Man Geum!

Stop right there! Right there!

Stop! Catch them!

ELDER!

GO!

Gae Ttong... I mean Dae Gil...

You are my son.

No matter what anyone says, you are my son.

You are Baek Man Geum's son, Dae Gil...

♪ Longing for you even if the tears well up ♪

♪ I will withstand you. Even if my heart fills up more ♪

♪ Because the words which have not yet been said remain ♪

♪ Because I cannot live ♪

Jackpot♪ a time without you ♪

How could you assassinate that man?!

Death is needed to make someone stronger.

Don't look for me.

You little bastard! At least you need to be alive.

Where's the bastard that killed my father?

Are you just itching to die?!

Last night, I heard that our Prince Yeoning has brought in a man that was half dead.

What is the identity of this maiden?

Don't misunderstand this.

Just stop at this point.

I am saying you should just live a normal life.

I will give you a chance. Now shoot.

Shut up! I don't need your petty excuses!
