1694, the 20th year of King SukJong's of Joseon reign.

5 years ago, Queen In Hyeon was dethroned under the reign of King Suk Jong.

Those who were against this matter were tortured.

Royal Noble Consort Hui, Jang Ok Jung was crowned Queen.

However, 5 years later,

due to the severe increase in strength of the Jang Clan and South party, who wield too much power,

King Suk Jong has another change of heart.

The West party planned the reinstatement of Queen In Hyeon in secrecy.

The King's change of heart was noted by the Right Deputy Prime Minister, Min Am.

A conspiracy was then planned for the assassination of Queen In Hyeon.

-=1694, the 20th year of King Suk Jong's of Joseon reign.=-

-=Queen In Hyeon=-

The thought of having a destiny with you again,

has never once left my mind.

I want to capture Min Am for his heinous crimes, but it is not an easy task.

Please understand my frustrated heart.

Your Majesty,

my sins cannot be forgiven.

Being allowed to live is a sign of your benevolence.

Just as the green tea branches freely falls...

As regards to the person who asks this, i can only shed tears of deep gratitude.

Omo! (Omo - Oh my)

Who's out there?

Is it the fourth month?

However, there is no way to repay this benevolence.

My sins, how can I ever repay them?

Please let there no longer be time to call for bloodshed because of me as the queen. Transmitting into a strong nation.

Are you alright?

Forgive my disrespectful act, Your majesty.

-=Right Deputy Prime Minister, Min Am=-

Your Excellency, I'm coming in.

How was it?

That... something unexpected happened.

Something unexpected?

-=Jang Ok Jeong, Royal Noble Consort Jang, Queen at that time.=-

Did you say it failed? How? -=Jang Ok Jeong, Royal Noble Consort Jang, Queen at that time.=-

How?

-= Ok Dang Gwan, Office of Special Advisors Reference=-

The office of Special Advisors said, -= Manager of the Jade Hall, Office of Special Advisors Reference =-

the crowds were rushing to the gates. -= Manager of the Jade Hall, Office of Special Advisors Reference =-

How does he know?

It is said that the letter was stolen from Lord Min Am.

What?

Something big has happened, Your Majesty.

If this were to be relayed to His Majesty...

How can one not do one's best with something like this?

It is best to call His Excellency for a dicussion first.

Have you lost your mind?

Did I call you in order to become a fellow traitor by tomorrow?

Where is my brother now?

Tell him to come, immediately.

Why did you come during this late hour?

The atmosphere at the palace was unusual as I have been observing.

Today's incident is related to Lord Min Am.

Please do not relate this incident with the palace.

How can you utter such words?

What is this?

This is the secret order to assasinate Your Majesty, handwritten by Min Am.

They have already known that I have stolen this letter.

They will not let go of this matter easily.

There's no time to waste before they make a move.

I must enter the palace and relay this to His Majesty.

Appeal to the court for the dethronement of the Queen.

Dethronement of the Queen? This is beyond belief!

How dare you talk about the dethronement of the Queen?

This is not my intention but His Majesty's intention.

Furthermore it is also the desire of ten thousands of people.

Please do not worry.

We will always protect Your Majesty until the end.

Everyone must pay special attention to every action.

Yes, My Lord.

Protect Her Majesty with our lives.

Because it is our duty.

Do not worry.

Let's go!

What are you doing?

- This is disappointing. - It was good, really.

Forgive me, My Lord.

I will prepare something new immediately.

My Lord.

Very well. Go ahead, play.

My Lord, what has happened?

I came here because I wanted to see you.

Did you get hurt?

No.

Exactly, that blood is...

Look after this for a moment.

What is this?

A letter that can cause an uproar in the court.

There are too many wolves craving for my blood.

Afraid that it would be snatched before His majesty could see it,

thus why I am here.

I will send people to get it in a few days. Please protect it.

Exactly what is in planning?

Once you've done something, it must be revised too right?

I've waited for a long time.

My Lord.

Please carry this with you.

What is that?

It's a talisman from the temple.

It will protect you.

I do not give my life for spells of that incompetent fellow.

Depending your life on a prostitute, don't tell me that is not imcompetence?

What you're saying is right.

Let's go.

Please go.

Stop!

I am Gim Bung Do from the Office of Special Advisors. Open the gate.

It's because you are not wearing the official uniform.

I have received urgent orders to enter, thus why I'm not wearing the official uniform.

Hurry, open the gate.

Put the sword down first.

Open the gate!

I have an urgent letter to relay to His Majesty, please tell him I would like to have an audience with him.

But please keep it confidential.

At this time?

His Majesty has already gone to sleep.

Officer Hong Nae Gwan, it has been reported before.

Just inform His Majesty that I have come and he will understand.

I understand.

However, it is without precedent,

that there will be rumors which is what I'm worry about.

How about going to the Office of Special Advisors hall?

I understand.

Theres even an assasin in the palace, who is it?

~ Looks like I've figured out your heart first. ~

~ From that moment I've met you. ~

~ At this moment feeling a little suspicious, I run to you without knowing. ~

~ Quietly looking into your eyes, ~

~ the whole world seems so beautiful. ~

~ Love comes and everything else becomes like a dream. ~

~ Just like that, I feel like I was born again. ~

~ Love does not waver. ~

~ Just like now, I want to be with you forever. ~

The audition!

The audition for Queen In Hyeon, where is it?

Ah, did you came for the audition?

It's on the 3rd floor.

I've searched everywhere on the 3rd floor but it's not there.

It's at the next building.

It's not this building but on the 3rd floor of the next building.

Take the stairs down 1 floor and pass through the lobby will do.

Hello.

Did you go? Have you reached?

I've arrived, but it's finished.

Why? Has the audition ended?

The audition has ended long ago, I'm too late.

Didn't I say that it would end early, look now...

I clearly said that I would audition at 3.

And I wanted to put in alot of effort, but my heels are ruined.

I have completely given up.

I'm already late for an hour, do you think it's still possible?

What are you saying? It's 3 o'clock now.

What?

I said it's 3 o'clock now, you're not late.

It's 4:05 now.

It's 3:05...

You're wearing my watch aren't you?

Yes.

Don't you know it's faster?

Is it? It really is.

Then how can I just give up like this?

Is a broken heel a problem? Just having it will do.

I'm hanging up first.

Excuse me, just a moment.

Who can I blame, Your Majesty.

I am incompetent,

creating such calamity without knowing.

Turn around and try again.

Yes.

No, the opposite direction.

Let's start over again.

Yes.

Yes. -=Jang Hui Bin=-

-= Jang Hui Bin =-

Her looks,

don't really match the role.

I am incompetent, creating such calamity without knowing.

I have been ignorant not being able to grasp the opportunity.

Please blame it on me.

- Miss Choe Hui Jin? - Yes.

Time was pushed back. 30 minutes later it's your turn.

Okay.

After this ends, come to the backstage.

Yes.

Where is the changing room?

Oh?

What about being late? I still have 30 minutes left.

High heels? I borrowed from others.

It just happens that the staff is one of my fans in this whole world.

I just said that I had to go for an audition and she lend it to me.

Anyways I can't just simply give up. This is what I've learned today.

It feels good today, like I'm going to succeed.

What is this?

=What?=

Omo, omo.

What is that?

Oh what is this?

Over here! Over here!

This is...

That's really...

=What is it? Whats the situation?=

=Hello? Hey, are you listening?=

Put it down. Down, down.

=Quickly put down what?=

I said put it down.

Put it down.

That's right.

Put that down.

Don't, absolutely don't.

Hyeong.

Don't, don't. Don't be like this.

=Don't what? Choe Hui Jin! Did something happened?=

Look at this.

Hyeong!

What?

Hey, theres not much time left. We still have to leave for another schedule.

Hurry and get change.

Completely crazy, that bastard.

Hey, Choe Hui Jin.

Your skirt is turning up.

Is this real or not?

It's been a long while, have you been well?

You've never changed.

Having fun teasing others.

Just now the blinds really won't go down, really.

But the timing is really precised, right?

Why are you here?

I have work to attend to.

Could it be that you knew of my return and waited for me to see you undress?

Who's waiting for who?

Is it because you're not so popular nowadays that your brain is malfunctioning, Han Dong Min?

It is hard to understand.

Then what were you doing in there?

Were you possibly with someone trying to... in broad daylight...

I came for an audition, why?

I didn't have time and I need a place to change.

I was in a hurry to change and who knows who came.

Every company would want a Hallyu star like you. (Hallyu - the Korean wave)

But a secondhand newbie like me can only keep trying out for auditions.

Is there any other solution?

Ah so you came to audition?

Ah, do you get it now?

Go.

But didn't you come out from the company? Why?

How did you...

Your contact details changed thats why I'm asking.

Why did you find out my contact details?

Because of curiosity.

I'm curious about how you've been living.

Aren't you curious about me?

That requires a certain time to be curious about.

Throughout the whole year, 24 hours in a day, on every channel,

I would see scandals of you with female actresses.

Moreover, the surnames are always different.

What Yun, Song, Sin, Kim or Hwang actress.

Recently, you're quite famous among musicians too. You're quite awesome.

Are you still angry now?

Didn't we broke up peacefully?

Then why are you still angry?

You are right. We broke up peacefully.

You said the opportunity finally came and asked me not to become a burden.

Didn't I agree?

Therefore, in the future pretend that you don't know me.

Why? Aren't you afraid that I'm being a burden?

Dating with star of a different level will anger your fans.

Hallyu star, Han Dong Min.

Good luck with your audition.

Thank you!

Why is he laughing? Bastard.

Miss Choe Hui Jin.

Miss Hui Jin.

Yes.

Forget it, Hui Jin. Han Dong Min is nothing.

If you give up now, you lose.

Please go in.

Please enter.

Stand on the line marked there will do.

Please introduce yourself.

Hello everyone, I'm Choe Hui Jin.

Did you participated in Miss Jeonnam before?

Yes, I've qualified in the 2007 contest finals.

But why didn't you start doing anything? Just photoshoots?

Yes, because I wanted to study acting.

Thats why I've been doing Theatrical studies in order to gain experience.

About acting, have you tried something more well known?

Last year in 'Our Twisted Hero'...

The President is here.

Let me introduce here, Han Dong Min.

Hello.

Aigoo, Mr. Han Dong Min. Thank you for choosing to participate. (Aigoo - oh dear, oh my god)

I will work hard. Nice to meet you.

It's been awhile.

How are you, Director?

Ah, you're selecting my co-partner?

Dong Min, would you like to watch together?

It is good if the person involved is pleased.

Then I will not hesitate.

Of course.

Come, sit here.

This time, Han Dong Min will be acting as Suk Jung.

What?

She must be too happy, that she had to be that loud.

Director, how about this?

The subject is not about a new Jang Bin, but about a new feeling.

Not a feeble Jang Bin but a tough image instead.

Even being unsatisfied, the type that insults the King.

Thats not too bad either.

- Feels like it can attract the youth. - It's a good idea.

Director Yang, you can consider it.

Yes I feel it's very fresh.

That's really...

I'm about to die.

So tired.

Why isn't she here yet?

The audition should have ended already by now.

=This is the sound of your ringtone, hurry and answer your phone.=

Hello.

Eating Ramyeon, too tired. (Ramyeon - Instant korean noodles.)

It would be better if came home to eat.

How was your audition?

I don't know.

What do you mean you don't know.

What? Why?

Didn't you put in alot of effort this time, saying that you had confidence?

What? You met Han Dong Min?

What? You undressed?

He even came in for the audition?

What? He's acting as Suk Jong?

It's over. During my audition, he kept laughing by the side.

Causing me not to have the role, I want to make him...

I've disappointed you again. Sorry, for letting your hopes high.

This punk who makes people's life useless.

Hey, it's good this way.

That punk is Suk Jong. What are you doing there?

Can you film a romance movie looking at his face?

Forget it. Even if it's going to be successful, Don't do it.

What nonsence are you saying? If I'm selected, of course I'll do it.

Don't do it, don't. I hate it.

And how many managers do you have? Hurry and come home. Being a star, how can you still be sitting outside?

I'll order whelks, hurry back home.

Whelk? Cool.

It didn't feel that bad when I borrowed the shoe.

=This is the sound of your ringtone, hurry and answer your phone.=

Hello.

Where are you now?

Who are you?

Have you forgotten the voice of your ex-boyfriend?

You are too much.

I've finished my filming. Where are you?

How did you get this number?

You want to do Queen In Hyeon right?

What did you say?

If you want to, come over to Peyto Lake.

You still remember the place we used to go to right?

I wanted to remind you...

Hello?

He has really gone crazy.

Since he's popular now, he can't differentiate the north, south, east and west.

Try and provoke me once again, I won't stay still.

This... really deserve to die.

Ajussi, ajussi... stop. Stop. (Ajussi - older man, uncle)

Miss, it's dangerous. Why are you?

Are you insane?

Such an important time like this, Han Dong Min you bastard!

=Hello? Hello?=

Hello, director?

=That startled me, why does your voice sounds far away?=

Because I'm at the subway, can't you hear me...

director? I can hear you clearly.

=Are you able to talk now?=

Yes, yes. Please say it, I'm listening.

What, what? Then...

=Let's work together.=

=Miss Hui Jin, we have made our final decision.=

=Lets work together to make this film a success.=

=Hello? Are you listening? Miss Hui Jin?=

- Thank you very much, Director. - =Hello?=

I'll do my best.

Director, thank you very much. I will do my best.

I will become the best Queen In Hyeon.

Thank you very much, Director. Thank you very much, Director.

I can really become the best Queen In Hyeon. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much, Director.

Did you heard any sound?

What sound?

Sounds like something fell down and broke.

Could it be that someone is inside?

Impossible, everyone has left.

Lets make another round and then just go back.

What are you doing?

- My Lord. - My Lord.

Not doing inpections but why are you near the Office of Special Advisors?

It's not like that. It's because we heard a strange noise.

At this hour, who dares to be insolent?

Would you two have other intentions?

No, it's possible that he has heard wrongly.

Go ahead.

- Yes. - Yes.

What happened? Where is Gim Bung Do?

Is he dead?

That...

That fellow, where is he?

That's strange. Where did everyone go to?

Hey brat, it's not there. It's on this side.

This side?

No, the opposite direction. Ah, this rotten brat.

Excuse me, what role are you acting as?

What role are you acting as?

I'm also one of the actors filming this drama, Queen In Hyeon.

I am Queen In Hyeon.

You've not heard yet right? It was just recently decided.

30 minutes ago.

Because it's not publicly announced yet, I'm actually not supposed to tell you.

But I'm really too happy, that I can't hold it in.

Please keep it to yourself alone.

Right, please have some of these. I've bought some snacks.

Do you not like donuts?

Excuse me, are you not an actor for this drama?

Excuse me, are you okay?

Can I ask something?

Sorry?

Do you know whether I'm dead or dreaming?

Sorry?

Are you sincerely asking me because you are curious?

Yes, I'm seriously curious about this.

This is my memory of our first meeting.

Not 3 years or 30 years,

how can I possibly know his situation for the past 300 years?

I answered the question honestly.

Then please don't be angry, since you wanted an answer.

The way I see it, you're not dead neither dreaming.

It's more like you've been drinking too much.

-= Next Episode Preview =-

Not even casted for the supporting role, how did you managed to become the lead actress?

Do you know Gim Bung Do?

In order to capture Gim Bung Do, I must capture you first.

Why are you being like this?

Queen In Hyeon has been captured, What should we do?

Hello, I'm Choe Hui Jin.

So easily becoming a lead actress, you must be proud.

By chance did you get involved after the audition ended?

I thought it was a dream, but it wasn't a dream.

What I have seen is too strange that it's hard to forget.

What kind of person is this guy really?

He must've gone crazy because he wanted to become an actor so badly but he didn't.

Don't come any closer.

Should we start seeing each other again?
