Final Episode

- Dong Yi...
- Dong Yi.

Father, Older Brother...

- Hurry, sir!
- My shoes! Where are my shoes!

We're not going to be able to see
Her Highness because of you!

I have to wear shoes, don't I?

Young-Dal!
How could this happen!

How could Her Highness leave the Palace?

I don't know!
I'm going without you.

Follow me if you want.

Young-Dal, wait for me!

Careful!
You've scratched it!

Do it properly!
Slowly!

It's still not too late.
Try and change her mind!

Change her mind?
Who? Me?

- My Lady!
- I've given up long ago!

What's wrong with Her Highness?

Why does she want to leave
the nice Palace?

I know! All she has to do now is
enjoy her entitlements.

But just try one more time.

Even His Majesty can't change her mind.

My Lady!

- Her Majesty is here.
- What?

Where is Consort Sook?

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty.

Please reconsider this, Consort Sook.

It will be difficult living outside the Palace.

How can you adjust
after living here all this time?

Your Majesty, don't you know
that I was lowborn...

...and grew up in a slave village?

- Consort Sook!
- Yihyun Palace is over-sufficient for me.

I will come back often
to pay my respects,

So please don't worry.

Is it because of me?

Are you doing this
for me and Prince Yeon Ing?

- If that's the case, then...
- Your Majesty, that isn't it.

I've been dreaming of this
for a long time.

I've wanted to leave the Palace.

What?

No.
I will never permit that.

- I will never let you leave!
- Your Majesty...

Your Majesty, the reason I came
to the Palace was to live.

The Palace was the only place
I could hide in...

...after I lost my father and brother.

And here I met you.

I received overflowing love from you.

- And gained a precious child.
- Then why do you want to leave?

I'm here, and so is Prince Yeon Ing.
So why?

It's because I want to live again,
Your Majesty.

Just like I entered the Palace to prove
my father and brother's innocence,

Now I want to leave it
to help the people...

...who are going through the same thing.

I want Prince Yeon Ing to know that
his mother is helping the lowborn people.

Please understand.

I want to leave the Palace...

To help the powerless and the weak,
just like my father and my brother.

I want to do this so that...

Prince Yeon Ing won't forget them
when he becomes King.

How cruel of you to use those words...

To stop me from preventing you
from leaving, Dong Yi.

You're a cruel woman.

I don't want to live in the Palace
without you.

I'm going with you.

Yihyun Palace isn't far.

If you miss me,
you can come visit me anytime.

And I'll come back often
to see you too.

You're lying!

You just said that my real mother
was now the Queen.

- You're abandoning me!
- No, Geum, that's not true.

I am still your mother now,

And will continue to me
even when I'm dead.

You know how much I love you, right?

- Mother...
- Yes, so stop crying.

Never forget the promise we made.

You must serve Her Majesty
with all your heart.

You must place her before me
in your heart, my child.

Your Highness!

Your Royal Highness.

Please don't worry
about Prince Yeon Ing.

I will take good care of him.

- Your Highness...
- He is my beloved brother.

I will make sure he never gets hurt.

I never said this to you before,
but thank you, Your Highness.

I will never forget everything
you have done for me.

Thank you, Your Highness.
Thank you so much.

I've gotten my way, Your Majesty.

But I hope you understand
why I'm doing this.

I hope you know that
I haven't left you.

Dong Yi!

Your Majesty!

I'm glad you still think of me.

- Are you laughing?
- Your Majesty?

You laughed?
You can laugh?

What's wrong, Your Majesty?

Look at how happy you are.
I have a fire burning in me.

Look at how you're grinning
from ear to ear.

Your Majesty, I...

I meant to hold my temper,
but this is too much.

Are you so happy to leave the Palace?
You're so happy when I'm so sad?

What am I to you anyway?

Am I nothing to you?

Your Majesty, how can you ask me
who you are to me?

You're everything to me.

You didn't know that?

- No, I... I...
- I was smiling because I was happy.

I was so happy that you are here.

It's not like last time
when I couldn't see you.

That's why I smiled.
Because I can see you anytime.

So stop being angry with me.

Yihyun Palace is just behind the Palace.
It's not Qing!

I know that, but the Palace feels
so empty without you in it.

Your Majesty...
Thank you.

You permitted all of this
even though you didn't want to.

You always give me what I ask for.

Don't look at me like that.
I'm still angry with you.

Your Majesty...!

Wait and see.
I won't think of you at all.

I won't even come here when I'm doing
my secret inspections outside the Palace.

- Really?
- Why? You don't think I can?

If you won't,
then I can't change your mind.

But it won't be so easy.

What?

First, you'll miss me
as much as I miss you.

And... and...

You'll think of Yihyun Palace everyday
even if you don't want to.

You might think "That stubborn Poongsan!"
and grind your teeth.

What?
Grind my teeth?

Yes.

I feel so bad just thinking about it,
Your Majesty.

What are you talking about, Dong Yi.
What are you going to do?

Hurry!
Hurry, everyone!

- This is a good place.
- Your Highness!

Lady Bong, this is the place!
This way!

Yes, Your Highness.
This way!

Are these the capital's best laborers?

Yes, Your Highness.
Why have you asked for them?

- Do you want to build a pavilion?
- A pavilion?

This is a perfect place
to admire the autumn scenery.

It's not a pavilion.

It's not?
Then maybe you want to dig a pond?

It's not a pond either, Lady Bong.

Actually, it's going to be
a little noisy around here.

- Noisy?
- Have you brought all your tools?

- Yes, Your Highness.
- Good. Now break down this wall.

Break down the wall...?

Your Highness, break down the what?

Didn't you hear me?
Break down the wall!

Why? What are you planning?

No, Your Highness!
You mustn't do this!

Then we have no choice.
I'll begin first.

Now do what I just did.

Break this down
so anyone can come here.

Break down the wall so that...

Anyone can come to Yihyun Palace
to ask for help.

Let's begin!
Now!

One Year Later...

Father...

Father...

Father...

Stand in line!
Everyone, stand in line!

My Lady, I have an emergency.
My son has been taken by soldiers.

Yes, I know.
But you have to stand in line.

Everyone here has the same problem.

Stand in line!

- My Lady!
- Ae-Jong!

I'm so glad you're here.
Do something about these people.

They don't listen!

You there!
Stand in line!

Back up!
You just got here, so move back!

Stand in line!
Perfectly in line!

Back up and stand in line!

Good!
That's good.

That's great!

My Lady, you look terrible!
How have you fared?

Ae-Jong, you have no idea...

...how many times
I have to scream "stand in line"!

Stand in line?
Doesn't that sound familiar to you?

What? When?

I don't know.
It sounds familiar though.

Stop talking nonsense.
I'm glad you're here. Help me.

But I have to see Consort Sook first.
I have a message for her.

Her Highness doesn't even
have time to eat.

Give me the message
and help me out here.

- Come here.
- My Lady!

So your father has been wrongfully
charged with killing a Finance official?

Yes, Your Highness.
But my father has not done this.

My father can't even kill an insect.

But they've taken him away
to be beheaded.

Your Highness, please save my father.

- Did you say your name is Yeol?
- Yes, Your Highness.

It seems that your father has been
framed for someone else's actions.

- I'll go and find out what happened.
- Really, Your Highness?

Are you really going to help me?

Of course! I used to be
Lady Investigator, you know.

You know what they do, right?

Good.
Now put your trust in me, all right?

Yes, Your Highness.
Thank you!

- I hope everything is all right.
- Me too, My Lord.

- Of course it isn't!
- He's back!

Father, what's going on?

Who is that woman sleeping next to me?

- Ho-Yang!
- Mother, you tell me!

Where is my bride
who looks like Consort Sook?

Who is that woman?

- That is your bride, Ho-Yang.
- What?

Father, she really looks
like Consort Sook, right?

I wouldn't lie to you
on your wedding day.

I almost said "Your Highness!"
when I first saw her.

I can't really tell
because she's covering her face.

Ho-Yang, she looks exactly like her.

Drink up!

Now, my son, have another drink.
Drink up!

Up you go!

Oh no, your cup is empty.
My Lord, you should fill it up.

I shouldn't keep drinking like this.

My bride's waiting for me.

She looks exactly like her.
Her head is shaped liked hers.

I'll turn out the lights, My Lord.

My wife!

My wife, are you awake already?

Yes, My Lord.

Father, Mother!
This wedding is not valid.

I was tricked.

You've already consummated the marriage.

Yes, at least the back of her head
looked her Consort Sook.

That was the best we could do.

No!
This cannot be happening!

I can't just look at the back of her head
everyday for the rest of my life.

At least the back of her head is pretty.

I've lived with your mom even though
both her back and front isn't pretty.

What did you just say?

I mean, there's people like me.
He's just being ungrateful.

What do you mean like you?
What's wrong with me?

I'm as cute as an acorn.
What's wrong with me.

This is preposterous!
This wedding isn't valid.

I want to go back in time.

What?
She's here again?

- Yes, sir.
- She's going to drive me crazy.

The wound looks like
it was from a sharp blade.

Yes, the assailant must have been
skilled with the sword.

But look, doesn't the direction
of the wound look strange?

Your Highness.

- You've come again.
- We meet again, Chief Huh.

The slave Chilbok who was arrested
for the murder is left-handed.

But based on the autopsy reports,

It is obvious that
the assailant was right-handed.

He could have used
his right hand instead.

This cannot be sufficient evidence.

You're right.

But the evidence used to charge Chilbok
doesn't seem to be sufficient either.

A strip of cloth found
in the corpse's hand?

That can always be staged.

Your Highness,
this is the Police Bureau's business.

- A Royal Consort shouldn't interfere...
- Chief Huh.

I am not here as a Royal Consort.
I'm here as Chilbok's lawyer.

This isn't interference, is it?

Your Highness...

I can't do this anymore.

How many times has she been here?

A Consort should sit and
look pretty in the Palace.

Why does she have to come here
and meddle.

That's because she's a lowborn.

That's why all the nobles are mortified.

What should we do?

This incident can't become big.
Go and inform the Finance Minister.

Yes, sir.

That's him, Your Highness.

What did you do to him?
Why is he in that state?

He didn't confess,
so we received orders to torture him.

What?
Torture?

You mean you were going
to torture him...

...until he confessed to a crime
he didn't commit?

That is illegal according to our laws.
Didn't you know that?

- Forgive me, Your Highness!
- Go and fetch the physician!

I will not this go unpunished.

Yes, Your Highness!

Who... are you?

Who are you and
why are you helping me?

Are you Yeol's father, Chilbok?

Yeol? Have you...
have you seen my daughter?

How is she?
Has she been arrested too?

No, Yeol is safe.

So don't worry too much.

You will soon be released
from all of this.

So don't give up hope.

Are you... are you Consort Sook
from Yihyun Palace?

You are!
I've heard about you.

- You really help lowborn like me...
- Don't say that.

Don't you know that
I was a lowborn like you too?

Your Highness!

You must persevere, do you hear me?

Hold in your bellies
and focus on your stance.

Indeed?

They look like they've improved
from last time.

That's because
Lord Suh is teaching them.

Lord Suh is really amazing.

He abandoned his position
in government...

...to help lowborn prepare
for the military exams.

He's exactly like you.

What?

Yes, he was a man who called my father,
a lowborn corpse-handler, his friend.

Your Highness.

Lord Suh!

You look healthier than before.

Yes, like you,
I prefer living outside the Palace.

Now that I'm living amongst the people,
I feel like I'm truly living.

Yes, you must have been a lowborn
in your previous life.

Yes, you may be right!
Blood is meaningless.

Choi Hyo-Won always used to say that
it was the heart that mattered.

Seeing how you've come here,

It looks like you're going to give me
something to do.

- Did you guess?
- Yes.

Seeing your expression,

It looks like we need to gather everyone.

I would love to do that,

But how can I summon
those in the Palace.

- It would cause chaos.
- That's why we should do it in secret.

So will you do it in secret for me?

Yes, of course I will.

- Sir!
- I have to go to Yihyun Palace.

- Make sure security is tight.
- Yes, sir.

But it's so late...

I wonder why?
In any case...

Now, I've completed my work.

See? I'm leaving now.
See you later.

Perhaps he has an emergency at home.

- My Lady.
- We're late. Let's hurry.

Yes, My Lady.

So this may not be just
a simple murder.

That's right.

The slave Chilbok is accused
of murdering the official...

Because he couldn't pay his slave tax.

But it seems that the official
was an interesting man.

He's very wealthy
for a mere Finance official.

I smell corruption.

Yes, the Finance official handles slave taxes
for the Ministry of Finance.

For a man like this
to amass such great wealth,

He must have been involved in corruption.

- He wouldn't have worked alone either.
- Yes, that is what I suspect too.

The official would have worked together with someone
in the palace or government.

That means one of them
could have murdered him,

And then framed
a powerless lowborn slave.

The downpour has weakened
some of the structure.

Tell the Ministry of Public Works
to work on it.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Assemble the ministers to discuss...

...the welfare program to help
the people who were affected.

Yes, Your Majesty

Isn't this the road to Yihyun Palace?

Didn't you know, Your Majesty?
I thought you came here on purpose.

On purpose?
We just happened to come this way.

How can you say that?

But since we're here,
shall we drop in?

- Dong Yi!
- Your Majesty!

You... you're bleeding!

How is she?

Your Majesty, I'm fine.
Why did you have to summon him?

Be quiet!

She's just a little tired.
There's nothing else wrong with her.

- Really? Is that so?
- I told you! You don't believe me.

I warn you.
Show me blood again and...

Yes, I'll return to the Palace.

You...!

- So what's this about now?
- What?

It must be something important
if you're staying up all night reading.

Your Majesty,
you mustn't do anything.

You're being pestered
by all the petitions...

...regarding me making trouble out
in the capital.

But you're not doing anything wrong.

Yes, but I'm not doing
the proper thing as a Consort.

- So you're aware of that.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

I'm just grateful that...

You're turning a blind eye
to what I'm doing, Your Majesty.

So you have to keep ignoring me.

That's the way I won't be
in more trouble.

But tell me anytime
if you need my help.

What you're doing now is what
I should have done long ago as King.

Yes, Your Majesty, I will do so.

Go and summon
the Chief of the Royal Guard.

Yes, Your Majesty.

What can I help you with?

I'm here with the Office of Investigations.

I need to review the family records
of the new palace maids.

Come this way.

The records are over there.

All right.

We don't have much time.
Search quickly.

Yes, My Lady.

What brings you here, sir?

I've come to review the slave records
for the Royal Guard.

What is Consort Sook doing now?

She's been quiet after she came
to the Police Bureau.

Why is she involved in this?

Please don't worry, My Lord.
She'll never find out the truth.

Have you found the ledger
that the official hid?

We're still searching for it.

If he hadn't gotten dissatisfied
with his share,

This wouldn't gotten so big.

You must find the ledger.

That ledger will ruin not only the nobles,
but the senior ministers.

Yes, My Lord!

The Police Chief met
with the Vice Finance Minister?

Yes, I put in a request to watch
the gisaeng house...

...that the Finance officials frequent.

Gisaengs all work for the Bureau of Music,

So they're in the palm of my hand.

But the Police Chief met
with the Vice Finance Minister?

Is our information going to be of help?

Of course it is!
You're both quite useful!

I'm going to see Her Highness.
Keep working hard!

- Yes, My Lord!
- Good work!

Looks like we did something useful.

We're truly Her Highness' right
and left hands.

Why are you her right hand?

I'm her right hand and you're her left.

You're so small-minded!
Who cares which hand we are?

The right hand's better.

- Oh, I see. It's better for...
- That's right!

- They're over-reported the slaves?
- Yes, Your Highness.

They inflated the number of servants
for the nobles,

Then they demanded double
the slave tax from each slave.

So they took more money
from the slaves...

...and shared it amongst themselves.

That's probably why the Police Chief
and the Vice Finance Minister met too.

Lady Jung also mentioned that...

The Vice Finance Minister was most likely
the culprit behind the corruption.

The murdered official used to work
directly beneath him.

You must hurry before the Police Chief
and Vice Finance Minister do something, Chun Soo.

Yes, Your Highness.

Is it true that you found the ledger?

Yes, the dead official's brother
lives in Donghak village.

We're sure the ledger is with him.

Then hurry!

First and second regiment will go
to Uh-Yi Village.

Third and fourth regiment will head
for Moon-Seo Village,

...and then convene at Donghak Village.

- You must not lose them!
- Yes, sir!

- Each regiment to your places.
- Yes, sir!

Let's go!
Run!

Chief Cha, are you sure
this is a good idea?

What if this causes a problem for
Her Highness because of the soldiers?

No, that won't happen.
I am working under His Majesty's orders.

What?
His Majesty's orders?

- Where is the ledger?
- I don't know, sir!

Will you confess when your family dies
one by one? Take them!

- No, sir!
- Then tell me where it is!

You're going to kill us all
after I tell you where it is.

Fine, if you want to die,
then so be it.

You're all dead!

If you want to die,
then so be it, Chief Huh.

What?
Did you just say the Royal Guard?

Yes, the Royal Guard was dispatched...

...to arrest the Police Chief
and all those involved.

The Royal Guard?
Then His Majesty...

Yes, it was me!

Your Majesty!

Your Majesty, what is going on?
Why did you...?

Don't be too surprised.
I just wanted to see some action too.

Your Majesty?

So is it my turn now?

This is the corruption that you nobles
have been involved with.

You gathered double and triple
the taxes from the slaves...

...in order to increase your own coffers.

The officials turned a blind eye to this.

How can those of you who filled
your bellies with the suffering of the people...

And those who ignored these happenings
govern this nation for the people?

We are ashamed, Your Majesty!

You must all remember that
when you fail to serve the people,

...you fail to serve the Heavens.

Therefore, all slave taxes shall be halved.

If there is ever a situation in which
these taxes are multiplied or increased,

All those involved shall be punished
under the full extent of the law.

We shall obey, Your Majesty!

- Father!
- Yeol!

- Father!
- My child! Let me see your face!

Yes... yes!

Your Highness!

Thank you, Your Highness!
How will I ever repay you?

Repay me?
I only did what needed to be done.

Your Highness, thank you!

You must take care of your father.
He has been through a lot.

Yes, Your Highness, thank you!

No, don't thank me.

Thank you! Thank you!
Thank you, Your Highness!

Move aside!

What's all this?

Your Highness, do you remember me?

You helped me get treatment
at the Welfare Hospital.

- Yes, how is your leg?
- Yes, it's perfectly fine now!

I can climb twelve mountains now.

So what brings you here today?

I didn't come here for help.
I came here to give you a small present.

A present?

Tomorrow�s your birthday.
There is nothing we can give you.

But we thought we could build you
a small pavilion.

- You mean all of you here?
- Yes, Her Highness helped all of us here.

Yes, Your Highness!

When I asked for help,
they all came.

You...

We'll build you a beautiful pavilion,
Your Highness.

Let's hurry!

Your Highness,
you can't reject this present.

Yes, how can I say no
to such a precious gift?

Do you see, Your Highness?
Today's lesson is right here.

Master...

Don't forget what you see today,
Your Highness.

This is far better teaching
than any book...

...or any wise philosopher's saying.

- Geum!
- Mother!

Why are you here?

Tomorrow is your birthday.

Her Majesty gave me permission
to spend the night here.

- Really?
- Yes, I'm going to talk to you all night.

Yes, let's do that!

Mother, I decided something today.

I'm not going to complain that
I miss you anymore.

I think I understand now
why you decided to come here.

You wanted to show me this, right?
You wanted to show me how to live.

- Geum...
- I won't forget.

I won't forget.
I'll put your teachings in my heart.

Good. Thank you, Geum.

I'm thankful too.
I'm thankful you're my mother.

Mother...

I want this one.

Dong Yi, this doesn't look expensive at all.

Being expensive isn't everything.
I like this one.

- Fine, then choose a few more.
- No, one is enough.

- Here, give me all of these here.
- All of them?

- Yes, sir!
- Why are you doing this, Your Majesty?

Why are you doing this to me?

It's your birthday but I can't even
throw you a banquet.

You won't even let me use
the royal funds to buy you a gift.

You just want this cheap trinket?

- I won't do that!
- Even so, you can't buy all of these.

I'm so sorry, but I'll just take this one.

- Yes, Madam...
- Dong Yi!

Your Majesty!

Sometimes I think you don't know
how a man thinks.

A man wants to give everything
to the woman he loves.

And who am I?
I'm the King!

That means I have the best.

And I want to use the best
to give you the best.

But you won't let me
do anything for you.

You've already given me your best.

These rings. You gave me these rings.
I really don't want anything else.

Dong Yi!

So don't be too upset that I didn't
want anything special this year.

This year's harvest wasn't so good.

I don't want to use the royal funds
for my own use.

And there's always next year
and the year after next.

Ten years later and twenty years later,
I'll always be with you.

You can throw me banquets
and shower me with gifts then.

All right.
I'll concede defeat.

Come to think of it,
have I ever won when it came to you?

But you have to keep your promise.

Next year, the year after,
and twenty years later,

Promise me you'll be with me forever.

- Your Majesty...
- Yes, that will be enough for me.

That's the only thing I want from you.

Come here. My Dong Yi...
So pretty in every angle.

Your Majesty, over there!

- That's a person!
- They're kidnapping someone.

- Wait a moment!
- Your Majesty!

Somebody's being kidnapped.

Go to the Police Bureau
and make a report.

Yes, Your Majesty!
Let's go!

Where's Dong Yi?
Dong Yi!

Dong Yi!

- What are you doing?
- Be quiet! They'll hear you.

What are you doing?
Let's go!

Something suspicious is going on inside.

I think this is the smugglers' lair
that I've been searching for.

- What?
- I have to take a look around.

Wait...
The police will be here shortly.

But Your Majesty,
the evidence will disappear.

They'll burn all the evidence.

What are we to do?
Where are the police?

Your Majesty, could...
Could I just once...?

What?

Are you asking me
to climb over the wall?

You can't climb over the wall!
I'll do it, so bend over.

You want me to bend over?
I'm the King!

You didn't know back then,
but how can you ask me to bend over now?

You said that when it came to me,
you're not a King but a man.

You have to make a choice.
Are you a man or are you a King?

Your Majesty!

Fine! I'll bend over!
Get on!

I'm going up!

Dong Yi!

- Your Majesty, higher!
- How...?

You're heavier than before...!

Your Majesty, use your strength!
How can you be so weak?

Four bows to the King and Queen!

Blessings!

A thousand year reign!

King Yeonjo (1694-1776)
Joseon Dynasty's 21st King

I saw Mother last night
in my dream, Uncle.

I was so overjoyed to see her
that I embraced her,

And complained to her loudly
about my fears of being King.

Do you know what she said?

What did she say?

She smiled gently and then told me
to expose my calves.

How could she be the same
even in death?

I'm going to have to be clear-headed
if I don't want to be caned by Mother.

Your Majesty...

Yes, that's what I'm going to do.

For Mother's sake,
I will be a good King.

Your Majesty!
Protect His Majesty!

What are you doing here?

I was looking for caterpillars.
But it's not for money.

You were looking for caterpillars here?

Yes, the village children who live here
catch caterpillars here.

Is that so?
You do this without being paid?

This is Consort Sook's tomb.

She used to work for lowborn like me
when she was alive.

How could I accept money?

My father told me I must never
accept money to clean up.

Yes.

Thank you. You're going to be
a great person when you grow up.

What? I'm just a lowborn.
How could I become a great person?

You can if you have great intentions.

Dong Yi!

Father!

Really?
That nobleman said that to you?

Yes, he told me to have great intentions.

He said a great person is made not
by birthright or position, but by his heart.

A heart with great intentions
will make a great person.

What a nice man for saying that to you.

Father, is that true?

Is the heart more important
than birthright?

If I have great intentions,
then can I become great?

Of course. You can become great
like Consort Sook and His Majesty.

Come, let's hurry.
Let's go see His Majesty's procession.

Yes, Father.

Dong Yi!
