Episode 11

Chicken!

It's good to see you!

By the way, Kang Chi, why do you want to become human?

I want to go back to my family.

Family?

What family?

Tae Seo and Chung Jo. And all the members of the Hundred Year Inn.

My dream is to live together with them happily like we did before.

What if they no longer want you? Then, what will you do?

Just like you have changed, what if they've also changed?

And if they no longer think of you as their family...

Then, what will you do?

You'll still want to become human?

What did you just say?

I told you I changed my mind.

Send Chung Jo to my room tonight.

Tonight will be her first night.

Then, I will return when the sun sets.

I'm begging you, Kang Chi.

Please save Chung Jo.

Tae Seo.

Please rescue Chung Jo, Kang Chi.

Stand up, and talk. Why are you kneeling in front of me?

Please!

Go wherever, Kang Chi.

- Tae Seo. - Before I harm you!

Take Chung Jo, and go far away.

Live happily together.

As her brother, I give the two of you my blessing.

Please, the two of you...

run away somewhere far, and live together.

Please.

It's not true, right?

Tell me it's not true.

Tell me this isn't happening.

Tell me I heard wrong.

Chung Jo.

Otherwise, I'll die.

I'll kill myself.

What do you think you're doing?

It's not enough that I became his object of mockery and ridicule?

Now, you want me to spend the night with him?

You think I can keep my sanity like that? I'd rather kill myself.

Rather than live in shame, I would...

Think straight.

Even if a gisaeng like you dies, nobody in this world will care.

Don't be deluded.

There are many people in this world who die more tragic deaths.

There are plenty who are in more desperate situations than you.

I'll tell you again.

You'll never be able to change anything by dying. So...

stop thinking about a meaningless death.

Worry about how you will stay alive until the end. Do you understand?

Clean this up.

Teacher!

Teacher?

That will be it for today.

So...

you're leaving?

As Young Master Tae Seo requested...

are you really planning to run away with Lady Chung Jo?

Even if I ask her to go, she'll say no.

And, she doesn't even know about what has happened to me.

I don't even know where to start explaining.

Even if I explain, I'm not sure of how she will react.

What is there to be unsure of?

She may think there's nothing wrong.

Whether you're half human or not. She may not care about your outer appearance.

No matter how your eyes and face change. You're still Choi Kang Chi inside.

She may not care. She may be okay with that.

You think that could be?

If she likes you... If her feelings are sincere...

It's possible for girls.

What do you know about girls?

Hey.

I'm a girl, too.

I mean...

you and Chung Jo grew up in very different environments.

Chung Jo was raised in a protective environment, she may get shocked.

Hey!

Despite how one was raised, all women in love are the same.

You don't know anything.

What? Love?

You know about love?

Of course, I do.

How would you know? You've been in love?

What do you think I am? Of course...

Not... yet.

You can only know about love if you've experienced it? You get a feel for it...

- You can assume... - How can you know it by assuming?

You've never had a sleepless night because your heart flutters so much.

You've never experienced your worries melting away just by looking at that person smile.

You've never experienced your heart breaking at hearing that person sigh.

Without those experiences, don't talk about love.

Do you understand?

Fine. Good for you.

You must be proud to have experienced so much.

Don't worry. I won't leave without a goodbye.

If I go away with Chung Jo... If I decide to do that...

I will let you know before anyone else.

Anyway, when will Sir Dam ever grow up to experience some real dating?

- Hey, you better move that hand. - And if I don't?

You're hitting me again.

Hey!

Sir Dam. Sir Dam!

You think you can get me? - Let go.

From your perspective, what are your thoughts?

About who?

Kang Chi?

I don't know.

The fact that you wagered a bet with him must mean that you find him appealing.

Then, why do you dislike him?

What reason do you have?

Twenty years ago...

I killed his father.

You're afraid that if Kang Chi finds out, he'll seek revenge on you?

Or...

is there another worry I don't know about?

Sir Dam.

Hey! Sir Dam.

Master, did you call for me?

Gon.

I will be leaving here for a bit.

I'll return by tomorrow. While I'm gone, please take care of everything.

Chung Jo, you have a guest.

My Lady.

Gob Dan!

- My Lady! - Gob Dan!

You must have gone through so much heartache alone.

How have you been?

Did you hear about Tae Seo?

What about Mother? Is she doing well?

You didn't hear yet?

Lady Yoon passed away.

Still, I think the Young Master is safe.

I haven't heard that the police have arrested him.

My Lady.

I hear you're from the Hundred Year Inn.

Who sent you here?

What do you mean who? It was our new Lord.

What's that?

Lord Jo sent it for Lady Chung Jo.

What are you doing?

Why are you opening that without her permission?

Oh my... Even Wol San has never gotten such fine gifts.

How can Lord Jo do this?

She's spending the night with the man who killed her father.

She has to accept at least that.

Let's go.

My Lady, what does she mean? Spending the night with the new Lord?

Oh my...

What? The new Lord and our Lady?

What's this all about?

So, tell me. Where's Kang Chi?

Where is he?

I will go tell Kang Chi, myself.

- Make sure nobody traces your footsteps. - Of course.

What should I do with those rats?

Let them be.

Those rats don't even realize what they're doing.

Go quietly, and station our men around Choon Hwa Gwan.

Tonight, Kang Chi will go there on his own to die.

What did you just say?

Spend the night?

Who and who?

Lady Chung Jo and Jo Gwan Woong, that guy.

And it's tonight.

There's no time.

The sun is about to set.

Hold on, Kang Chi.

I don't feel good about this.

I think Jo Gwan Woong's setting up a trap by using Lady Chung Jo.

What do you mean? You think I'm bait?

No matter where I am, I'm always on Kang Chi's side.

Jo Gwan Woong may be using that fact.

- Even if it is a trap, I have to go. - Kang Chi!

Chung Jo will be waiting. I have to go.

Then, let's go together.

If it really is a trap, the two of us will be better.

- No. - No.

Thanks for worrying about me, but I can't accept your help this time.

The Master isn't even around. You'll have to stay here.

You heard? You'll have to stay here.

Don't get in trouble from Master by trying to help me.

- You should just stay here. Okay? - Listen to Choi Kang Chi.

Have you two formed an alliance?

Since when were the two of you in such agreement?

Even if I'm not here, you can watch the place.

- Lady Yeo Wool. - Sir Dam.

And just in case I'm right and this is a trap...

it'll be hard for you to escape with Lady Chung Jo on your own.

- Even if it is hard, I'll take care of it. - I have better martial arts skills than you.

I'll be your aid, not your burden.

So, let's go together without any more complaints.

- But, my Lady. - I'm going with Kang Chi. That's it!

But...

We don't have to let Young Master Tae Seo know?

For now, don't say anything.

It'll be better for Tae Seo to not know.

Bring me the information on Master Dam's school and the silver.

If you don't, your sister will pay for it.

What happened?

Your eyes seem unsettled.

Fear and anger make things distorted.

Don't let those distortions affect your decision-making, Tae Seo.

Let's go.

Head Maid.

Put away the lights.

We won't take any guests in tonight.

Tell the girls, and make sure that no lights shine out.

- And Jang Sae. - Yes, Head Mistress.

You should lay out the straw mat in front of the main entrance.

Why the straw mat?

I don't know...

What's going on?

Why is the Choon Hwa Gwan so dark and quiet?

What's with this absurd sight?

I'm sorry.

We will not be accepting guests into Choon Hwa Gwan tonight.

I already told you that I would be spending the night here.

Are you telling me you'll disobey my order?

Twenty years ago, I lost two young lives because I didn't disobey your words.

Do you remember?

Although we may be gisaengs, we still have regulations and principles.

It's my responsibility to teach and maintain them.

So, what are you planning to do against me?

Please take back your request.

What?

If you don't take back your request, Choon Hwa Gwan will never turn the lights on.

If I don't take back my request, what will you do?

Kill me.

If I can't even protect a trainee here...

how would I ever be able to carry on as a head mistress?

Kill me instead, and get what you want.

Before then, I will never let you go through.

You really want to get beheaded?

As a state gisaeng, I'm technically state property.

If you decide to take my life, you would be taking state property.

- You'll have to be responsible for that. - Even if I kill you...

- what kind of high crime would that be? - Then, kill me.

Head Mistress Chun.

Your haughtiness will reach the heavens.

Fine.

I will kill you as you wish.

That's enough.

Thank you.

I will never forget your willingness to protect Chung Jo.

From now on, I'll take care of this, so step back.

It's you again.

Don't you think we are seeing each other a little too often?

You must be begging for an early death.

If you keep coveting what's not yours, you'll bring trouble upon yourself.

- Be careful. - If Chung Jo's not mine, then she's yours?

How can you talk about owning a person?

One's heart is not something you can possess like that.

Deputy Seo.

Don't fight him no matter what.

You're not going there to fight with Jo Gwan Woong.

Don't forget that you're going there to rescue Lady Chung Jo.

Do you understand?

If I don't fight him, what can I do?

- I have a plan. - A plan?

First, run away until you reach the restaurant in town.

- Deputy Seo, what are you waiting for? - Get him!

Follow him!

Don't be scared. I'm Kang Chi's friend.

Get him!

- Stop! - Get him!

That way!

- No, it's that way! - Sir, it's that way!

It's that way!

What should we do?

- Each go your own separate ways! - Yes, sir.

- Jang Sae, lock up all the doors. - Yes, Head Mistress.

- How is Chung Jo? - She's staying in her room.

Oh my... Where did she go?

Head Maid.

Tell Jang Sae to find Chung Jo, first.

Be careful that Wol San and the other girls don't find out.

Yes, I understand.

Why did you run away?

Why?

Are you okay? You're not hurt?

I'm sorry. I'm not used to the mountains.

If we go a little more, Kang Chi will meet us there.

Hang in there.

Choi Kang Chi!

- What happened? - It wasn't Choi Kang Chi.

Mine wasn't Choi Kang Chi, either.

I'm sure Choi Kang Chi planned this with men from Master Dam's school.

Go report this to the police headquarters.

Tell them to arrest the men responsible for this!

Yes, sir.

Who are you waiting for?

Master.

Lady Yeo Wool hasn't come in yet. I'm waiting for her.

Are you concerned? Because of Yeo Wool and Kang Chi?

If you're that concerned, why don't you express yourself more?

I'm just... Lady Yeo Wool's shadow.

I can be concerned, but it's not up to me to decide anything.

You're still young.

Anyway, where did Master Dam go without saying anything?

I thought I would have a guest, so I was waiting outside.

It was you, Dam Pyung Joon.

If we wait here, they'll arrive.

By the way, what is your name?

You don't remember?

I'm Master Dam's daughter, Dam Yeo Wool.

A long time ago, I saw you once at the Hundred Year Inn.

Hi, my name is Yeo Wool.

You're here. Are you all okay?

- Nobody got hurt? - No.

We just ran as you told us to do.

Good.

But, where's Kang Chi? He's not here yet?

I'm just arriving.

- Why are you so late? - You're the last one.

- You left them behind? - Yes.

- And you didn't fight them face on? - No, I didn't.

What about Chung Jo?

Chung Jo!

Are you okay?

You're okay?

No.

I'm not okay at all.

I'm not okay at all, Kang Chi.

It's okay now.

You came to me, so you're okay, now.

Kang Chi.

Chung Jo.

- Chung Jo. - Tae Seo.

You must have gone through a lot of hardship.

You're not hurt? You weren't sick?

Tae Seo, Mother...

Mother...

I know.

You don't need to say anything.

What do we do now, Tae Seo?

Don't worry.

From now on, I'll take care of you.

What do you want to know?

Everything about Kang Chi.

Everything?

Is it really possible for that kid to become human?

Is it really safe for that kid to be amongst humans?

You must be worried about your daughter.

But, it's impossible to undo fate.

Once a fateful connection has been made, no one can undo that fate.

This is karma.

Help.

Choi Kang Chi.

He's in danger.

This is all because of what I did.

What happened?

Why is Lady Chung Jo at our school?

Gon, I told you to take care of everything here while I was gone.

It was my decision.

I heard that Jo Gwan Woong would spend the night with Lady Chung Jo.

I couldn't just sit back.

So, Choi Kang Chi acted up again? And you helped him again?

Father.

Head Mistress Chun was supposed to help Chung Jo.

She had promised me that. But, why did you create this mess?

All of this is my fault.

I'm the one who asked Kang Chi to rescue Chung Jo.

This all happened because of me. Please punish me.

What will you do now? Jo Gwan Woong is already looking for you.

You've just angered him more without any plans.

I'll leave.

I will leave here with Chung Jo.

- Kang Chi. - That will be best.

That way, everyone will be safe.

If you will allow it, Tae Seo, I'll leave here with Chung Jo.

What do you mean?

I said this has nothing to do with Master Dam's school.

So, if you want to blame someone for this, then take me in.

You must be mistaken. The one I want is Choi Kang Chi, not you.

So, if you want to protect Master Dam's school and your sister...

you must bring me what I want.

That's a fair deal.

Tae Seo, what should I do?

Can I really leave with Chung Jo?

It's my request, Kang Chi.

Okay.

I'm Dam Yeo Wool. A long time ago, we met at the Hundred Year Inn.

Hi, my name is Yeo Wool. Will you give him this?

Hey, Sir Dam. Sir Dam!

Sir Dam!

Look, Sir Dam. Let's talk.

No thanks. I don't want to say anything to you right now.

- Sir Dam. - You said you would tell me, first!

After telling me that, how can you say that you'll leave so suddenly?

Especially in front of everyone, so suddenly?

Master has already endangered himself by keeping Tae Seo here.

How can I ask him to take care of Chung Jo as well?

If you leave, where will you go? You got a place to go to?

I'm sure there's a place for the two of us to hide.

I thought you wanted to become human!

That's why you came here. And you're going to give up like this?

Sir Dam...

This is how weak your resolve was to become human?

Look, Sir Dam.

Let go. I don't want to talk to someone like you.

Yeo Wool!

I'm sorry, Dam Yeo Wool.

I'm sorry for not telling you, first, that I'm leaving.

I'm also sorry for giving up so easily on my decision.

And also...

Thank you.

For taking my side even after knowing all my weaknesses.

The reason I could bear Lord Park's death...

The reason I could win over my uncontrollable situation...

That was all thanks to you.

I will never forget. I...

I won't be able to forget.

How much more will you disappoint me?

How could your powerful guards fail to catch him each time?

I have a plan, so give me one more chance.

- I don't want to hear it! - My Lord, Ma Bong Chool is here.

Let him in.

It's been a long time, my Lord.

Did you say you know Choi Kang Chi the best in all of Yeo Soo?

Of course.

I was the one who found him last time, too.

Then, let me give you that order once more.

This time, you'll not only have to find him. You must find him, and get rid of him.

Then, I'll give you a grand reward.

If you entrust me with the job, I'll return after putting him into his grave.

Thank you for letting me stay here. Please live a healthy, long life.

And, please tell the Admiral I'm sorry for leaving without saying goodbye.

I will never forget all that he has done for me.

Okay, I will do that.

Lady Yeo Wool is practicing her sword skills.

She asked not to be disturbed.

If you want to reach Neung Gok Hill by tonight, you'll have to hurry.

Yes.

Then, take care.

Let's go.

Still, I wanted to say my last goodbye to you.

Goodbye, Dam Yeo Wool.

He's really gone.

I hope you won't regret your decision.

I'll be going in, first.

If I can stop their fate like this. I want to do that.

How could he make such a rash decision?

Are you out there?

Get the horse ready. I'll have to visit Master Dam's school.

Yes, sir.

- They're heading towards Neung Gok Hill? - Yes.

- Beat them to it, and get them there. - Did you hear?

- You'll have to get them there, so move. - Yes, sir.

Good job. You've helped us a lot.

I let you have Choi Kang Chi as promised, so turn over my sister.

Go with them, and kill Choi Kang Chi with your own hands.

If you do, I'll let you take your sister right on the spot.

Don't forget to get rid of his bracelet, first.

Your sister was sold into a gisaeng house.

Even if it's not Lord Jo, your sister will soon be dirtied by other men.

Even if she runs away with Choi Kang Chi, it won't be much different.

She'll live her life in hiding. And if she gets caught, she'll get executed.

So, make your decision. Will you let your sister live in dirt?

Or, will you hand over Choi Kang Chi?

Keep an eye out for them on the path.

When you see them coming down after doing the job, kill all of them.

Yes, sir.

Where are you going?

My Lady!

I think I'm crazy.

I shouldn't have sent him away like that.

I should have said one last goodbye.

You said it was Neung Gok Hill?

If I follow after them, will I catch up by tonight?

You'll follow them, and do what? He's already got another woman.

I don't want to do anything. I just...

I just want to say goodbye.

I want to bid him farewell. I want to wish him a good life.

I just want to tell him that.

Thank you.

Do you know something?

You haven't said anything since leaving the martial arts school.

I haven't?

I have a lot of thoughts about the upcoming days.

Am I being a burden to you?

What do you mean? A burden?

You're someone I need to protect.

I don't know. It just feels like you've changed.

It seems like you've become someone else. You seem distant.

What is there to be unsure of?

She may think there's nothing wrong.

Whether you're half human or not. She may not care about your outer appearance.

You're still Choi Kang Chi inside.

Actually, Chung Jo...

I have something to tell you.

What is it?

Before that, I want to tell you this.

For you, I will do whatever it takes.

To protect you, I can even give up my life.

- You know, right? - What do you need to tell me?

I...

- I found out who my real parents are. - Real parents?

- Your biological parents? - Yes.

You see, my father...

My father...

Wow, this is picture perfect.

Who's this?

It's Choi Kang Chi!

Ma Bong Chool.

- What brings you here? - What brings me here?

I'm here to follow Lord Jo Gwan Woong's orders to kill you.

I went through a lot bringing the best hunters and captors in the South.

Get him!

Kang Chi!

Kang Chi!

- Chung Jo. - Kang Chi!

Chung Jo!

Tae Seo.

Tae Seo.

I'm here to kill you, Kang Chi.

Tae Seo!

What if they no longer want you? Then, what will you do?

Just like you have changed, what if they've also changed?

And if they no longer think of you as their family...

then, what will you do?

That won't happen.

Tae Seo and Chung Jo will never betray me.

But Kang Chi, humans are much weaker than you think.

Because they are weak, sometimes they become cruel.

Tae Seo.

Why?

Chung Jo is the only family I have left.

To protect that child, I have no other choice.

What?

Forgive me, Kang Chi.

No, Tae Seo.

Don't do this.

Tae Seo!

No!

Please!

No!

Go away. Don't come close.

In order to live, throw away everything that you can.

If you become mine, I, too, will become yours.

Why are you taking care of him?

I think we'll have to plan for a face-off with Jo Gwan Woong.

Why are you so good to me?

I want to do everything for you. That's my desire.

I'm here to see Yeo Wool. Please let me see Yeo Wool.
