SCENES INVOLVING ANIMALS WERE

CREATED WITH PROPS AND VISUAL EFFECTS

Will you be my friend again?

Your Highness.

There wasn't a single moment

when I wasn't your friend.

I'm planning to make
that miracle every day.

I will have a friend,
I will trust that friend

and I will protect him.

I'll see you at
the training grounds later.

Archery practice was getting boring

since I haven't someone to compete with.

Yes, Your Highness.

EPISODE 10

Are you happy that
you have a friend again?

You seem happy.

You've been smiling all the way back.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Will you be my friend too?

Do you think a man
and a woman can't be friends?

No.

It's just that this hatred is starting
to fill me up again.

When you kicked me out, I was so sad.

Did you feel good after kicking me out?

That's why I apologized.

I'm sorry.

That's it?

That was too short and simple.

I want you to say it again,

but more longer and detailed this time.

I need you.

I want you to stay with me.

Just tell me that.

I missed you, Jae-yi.

Why are you not saying anything?

What about you?

You probably didn't even think about me
while staying at Manyeondang.

Why are you speechless?

Without you by my side,

the East Palace felt emptier than ever.

Is it that hard for you to apologize?

I apologized in my thoughts.

You also talked to yourself,

so just tried thinking to myself.

-No way.
-How dare you.

You eavesdropped
when I was talking to myself.

So it's only fair if you tell me

what you were thinking.

I was thinking about something
you should never know.

Come on. Are you serious?

Isn't better than swearing at a chair?

You even kicked it.

You were imagining that
I'm the chair. right?

-That's that
-"That's that"?

This is foul play.

Enough. Go and get some rest.

No, Your Highness. How could I?

I'll escort you to the East Palace.

It's getting late.

Go and get some rest.

You may be dressed as a man,

but I haven't forgotten that
you're a woman.

Oh, if you go back,

late-night snacks will be waiting for you.

If I miss lunchtime,
no one will get me lunch.

He never once asked me
if I had dinner.

I'm not the irrational person
you may think I am.

I asked Tae-gang to prepare it beforehand.
Go on inside and eat.

Your Highness.

Aren't you hungry?

We've been walking together
for miles.

Wow!

Japchae and beef tartare!

I haven't seen you guys in a while.

Cookies made in the palace are
as sweet as honey. It's so sweet.

My apologies, Your Highness.

That was so rude of me.

Oh.

Have some. It's really good.

It's out of this world.

You're still awake?

His Highness has changed.

I felt that way too.

I had no idea

you prepared fireworks for my wedding.

Didn't you say that

throwing too big of a big party goes

against the integrity of a scholar?

With the fireworks,
people would gather from everywhere

and the whole village
would've been boisterous.

You are my only son.

People gathering around,

laughing, and eating together

at my son's wedding isn't

too big of a party.

I think it's time we clean up in here.

It's been in here for too long.

I will have the niter sent to Gaeseong
through the Weapons Bureau.

She's dead.

Do not concern yourself anymore

with finding a dead person.

It's meaningless.

Once the Crown Princess is chosen,

I will look for a new spouse for you,

so keep that in mind.

The future of our family depends on it,
so we can't keep postponing it.

I found you, Jang Ga-ram.

But he's a man.

How come you're calling him Jang Ga-ram?
She seems much thinner in the picture.

A lot of girls dress up as men
to avoid the choesoeryeong.

I'm sure it's her.

Should we go get her now?

Gosh.

What if the bounty hunters come for me?

Gosh, I am anxious every day.

No, whether I live or die,

it'll be for Lady Jae-yi.

I wonder why she left Gaeseong.

Why do we have to know why she left?

Min Jae-yi might be alive.

She came all the way to Hanyang
dressed up as a man

to probably meet her owner, Min Jae-yi.

Oh, you're going to catch Jae-yi
and turn them both over?

Where should we turn them over
to get our money's worth.

We should turn them over
to Section Chief Han.

That little brat has stained

the reputation of the noble...

You still have a lot to learn.

Do you have another plan in mind?

I'm thinking about turning them over
to Lord Cho.

Where would
Lord Cho use them?

Didn't you hear that Lord Cho is

buying information
from all over the country?

He'll pay us more than Section Chief Han

since he's one of the state councilors.

So that's what happened.

The Crown Prince himself proved
Lord Han's innocence

to save his friend and his family.

Well, he will become a wise king.

Gosh, he's nosy.

Will you be okay, My Lord?

You really think I started all this
without a backup plan?

Thank you for letting me know
what happened.

Then I should get going, My Lord.

Did we receive any news?

What news?

-You really don't know?
-I don't.

About that letter that says
"Song, Ga, Myeol."

Watch your mouth.

If we heard any news,
it would be about that.

They didn't contact us
because it's a village matter.

Someone might have recognized him
even with the mask on.

I heard you went
to the Office of Shamanism.

Why did you cause a ruckus?

If the plum tree catching on fire
has something to do with the shaman

then it has something to do with you.

How much do you know?

What if someone hears you?

What would I know? I just do as I'm told.

If you do as you're told,

we can go back home, right?

What if we don't go back?

Should we just keep living under
fake names and a fake hometown?

I have to get my name back.

Let's just go back to Naeahn Village...

Stop talking nonsense

and pack some stuff
to send to Naeahn Village.

The monk will be here soon.

Is the plum tree that caught on fire
has nothing to do with Lord Han,

then are the thieves
of Byeokcheon really up to something?

Gosh, how did you know I like to drink?

You truly are very generous.

I feel so good.

You were pretty cool today.

When you got all serious
in Section Chief Han's shed,

it made me feel all good.

Are you thinking about Seong-on?

No.

I was just reminded of the candles I saw
in his shed.

Once you find out the truth,
you will be able to clear your name

and light the candles.

Section Chief Han is such a great person.

It took my father so long to choose him
as my husband.

But I just liked him without knowing

he was such a good person.

-What do you mean by that?
-Getting married was never my choice.

Think about it.

Marriage is a promise between families,

so liking him would be better

than hating him.

But didn't you say you fell for Seong-on
and that it was love at first sight?

I never had the time to fall for him.

We only met once when we were little kids.

I just decided to like him.

You should do the same

since you're going to get married soon.

You don't have to tell me what to do.

Then, are you planning to hate
the Crown Princess?

I'll do whatever I want.

You can't just plan to like

or hate someone.

Oh dear. This is bad.

I feel bad for the Crown Princess.

Women who are about to get married
are sitting on pins and needles.

I can't believe she has to get married
to such a cold man.

This is a big problem.

She has to get married
without even seeing the man

she'll have to spend
the rest of her life with him.

This is just nonsense.

If you become the king,

please change the law.

Make a new law that says you have to

get to know someone before you
marry them. Isn't that nice?

You have to date them for at least a year
and hold hands before getting married.

-And smell each other.
-Smell?

And have your first kiss.

That way you'll be able to know
if you have chemistry

and you need to know that
to share a bed...

Stop saying such hideous things.

How can that happen unless the world ends?

I think that will happen very soon.

Strange.

I feel bad for Seong-on.

He's going to go through so much.

Getting married to someone else...

Please just be alive.

I will find you.

I want Seong-on to know about you.

Before it's too late.

Would it be safer if you go to him

and leave the rest to me?

Clearing my name comes first.

If I do find out who killed my family,

I will never forgive him.

Our family name ceases to exist.

Will catch the murderer with my own hands
and make sure he pays for what he's done.

Even if I have the time afterward,

I will not get married
to Section Chief Han.

I think I'll be much happier living
as a eunuch.

Gosh.

I wonder what's inside your head that
makes you think of such ridiculous things.

But you were the one who told me,

"Go ahead."

Go ahead and do it.

I give you my permission.

You were the first person

who told me that.

So I was able to do

whatever I wanted.

It was different before I met you.

Please give this to Young Master Min.

Thanks to him,
my father was able to clear his name

and come back home.

Oh, I can't accept this.

Take it. Give it to your father.
He just got out of prison.

No, we are fine.

Please let us repay you somehow.

Please take this.

I was always hidden

behind my brother's name.

But I feel like I'm useful now.

I have a man's name even though it's fake.

Sun-dol, what do you think?

I also think these murders are serial.

With that name,

I was able to give my opinion
in front of people.

I saved two lives

and I was happy that I could see

a smiling family

Sometimes I think about

that baby we saved.

I wonder what kind of life
the baby you named Myeong-rae

would live in this world

Because you gave me permission

and told me to do want

I saved someone's life,

and saved a family from destruction

even though I was framed for something
I didn't do.

It was possible
because you were there with me.

I was able to do it
because you were there with me as well.

And even if I get married,

all I'll be doing is

sewing Section Chief Han's socks.

I can't believe I have to stay

in the kitchen
just because I'm a girl.

And if he ever decides
to get another wife...

You know very well that I have a temper.

I will definitely get kicked out
because of my jealousy.

Yes, that is certainly plausible.

I like where I am now.

How nice is this?

If I get married,
I wouldn't even be able to have a drink.

So you're saying,
you want to be next to me forever?

Oh?

That's actually a good idea.

You provide a place to sleep and food

and I get monthly paychecks.

Since I know what you're like now

even your scolding sounds friendly.

And if you become the king someday,

I will become the head eunuch.

Says who?

Who says you'll be the head eunuch?
Not just anyone can be the head eunuch.

-Just let me be it.
-What?

Let me be the head eunuch.

Seriously?

Since I am a eunuch,
I won't need to have a beard.

This job is perfect for me.

If I knew there was a way to live

without getting married,

I wouldn't even have thought
of getting married in the first place.

You will become the king and

I'll become the head eunuch.
Isn't it great?

And is it okay with Seong-on

meets another woman, right?

I'd rather be the head eunuch.

Please make me the head eunuch.

Gosh.

All right, fine. If you're not going to
get married and keep working as a eunuch,

I'll make you the head eunuch.

You promised, right?

Yes, I'm going to be the head eunuch!

Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is here.

Your majesty,
Lord Han is here.

Come in.

Your majesty,
Lord Cho is here.

Come in.

Your Majesty,
would you like some rice cakes?

That's enough.

-Your Majesty.
-Enough.

This rice cake is a gift from me,
the head eunuch.

I said that's enough.

I've got news
from the Minister of Personnel.

Mother.

Father. What happened was...

It seems like she liked you very much.

No, no.

So the thing is...

We... Well...

Pack your things and go to Hamjin.

Pardon? Hamjin?

Did something happen to grandmother?

If you go there,
your uncle will find you a place to live.

I got you a government post,
so stay there for six months and...

Father. You are talking to Myeong-jin.

Not your first-born or second-born son,
but your youngest son.

I was kicked out of the academy

and failed the exam,
so how could I work at a government post?

Good going.

If you had just taken the exams,
your father wouldn't have had to

get you that job using his connections.

My friend's son is about to become

the section chief which is
a very prestigious job

and has a bright future ahead of him.
Doesn't that make you feel anything?

Go to Hamjin

and when I call you,
come back to Hanyang

and work at a government post here.

Then I will no longer
get involved in your work life.

No, Father.

Until when are you going to treat
your life like a joke

on the streets?

You have to get married,
carry on the family name

and be responsible for your family.

Once you get a proper job in Hanyang,

you will have to get married right away.

Father, my work at Manyeongdang

is no joke.

Didn't you say a person's life is just
as important as courtesy and customs?

I'm just trying to use my talents

where it's needed for Joseon.

So how can you say what I do is useless?

We won't get through to him by talking.
Why you little...

-Oh gosh.
-Please calm down.

Calm down.

Stop complaining and pack.

Mother, your body has a lot of heat,

but if you keep getting angry like that

your body will get hotter
and you could get sick.

Why you little... Do I have to smack you
for you to come to your senses?

Put that down.

I bought that ten days ago.

Just put that down
and let's use our words.

Yes, that's expensive, Mother.

You must hold back.

Calm down. Good.

They say if you hold back
you'll be able to escape a disaster.

-It's because you keep coddling him.
-Still, you have to hold back.

Well, isn't this a pleasant sight?

Please don't worry

about my marriage or job

and live a loving, happy life together.

Why that little...

Calm down.

Gosh...

That's it. Good.

Gosh...

Hello.

Where have you been so early
in the morning?

-What's all this?
-Fabrics.

You're going to sew all these alone?

I guess there is quite a bit.

Then give me one.

Oh, it's not for me.

My mother is great at sewing.

Is that so?

Shall I ask her for help then?

You won't regret it. She's really good.

-You'll pay her well, right?
-Of course.

Why didn't you keep your promise?

You promised

you would call the wedding off.

Did you not hear what I said?

I'm sorry, My Lady. It's...

Do you

have a crush on me?

No, of course not.

I don't know you well enough to fall
for you.

That doesn't mean you're not beautiful.

-If you don't like me,
-Icicle.

then do you think my future is a joke?

I told you I do not intend to marry you.

Do you know how afraid I am
that people will find out

that I could marry you?

Okay.

I'll let my parents know as soon as I can.

That's a promise.

Goodbye.

How dare you touch me
when you've been touching bodies!

Oh, it's so disgusting!

I hate it. I hate it so much!

My Lady, are you okay?

How rude!

Did you see his face? Did you?
What in the world have you been doing?

Just my dumb luck.

Gosh, what do I do?

How can I wear such a dirty thing?

Gosh, she's nothing.

I ran into an icicle on my way here.

Was she here visiting you?

Didn't you say

you were going to humiliate her
when you saw her again?

Did you say everything you wanted to?

I couldn't say a single word.

How come?

Why didn't you say anything?

Women are fragile.

No matter how harsh I am,

she's still more fragile than me.

What good would hurting her do?

Is that why you let that icicle say
all those mean things?

You should've humiliated her properly!

Why is an icicle weak?

It's not weak at all!

You seem much more fragile to me!

You're right. Myeong-jin is fragile.

He's like a little worm

that can't even move

after getting pierced by a sharp icicle.

Stop that.

-Gosh...
-Don't cry.

Come on.

Your Majesty. His Highness is here.

Come in.

You're saying Lord Cho got these ledgers
by trailing a eunuch of the East Palace?

He is very impertinent, is he not?

Right after the plum tree incident,

he gathered his family all over the country

and dared to suggest you do a gamseon.

And not only did he have a eunuch followed

and steal the ledger,

but he tried to use it
to get rid of Lord Han.

Father, you cannot let this slide.

Your Majesty.
Lord Cho is here.

Come in.

Your Majesty,
did you get a good night's sleep?

Are you here to ask His Majesty is doing,
Your Highness?

I heard you were brilliant

at Lord Han's place.

-Were you telling His Majesty about that?
-You must've made a mistake

seeing how you're here to see His Majesty

when you're morning meeting
is going to be held soon.

Of course, not.

I guess you forgot
about my years of experience.

Mistake?

I have proof

regarding the plum tree
that caught on fire

so how could I possibly not tell
His Majesty?

Your Majesty.

I was passing by the marketplace

when a palankeen bearer found this bundle.

There were those ledgers in it,

and one of them was from a nearby store.

So I went inside and asked the owner.

He said that someone from the palace

took the ledger

so I had to take a look
because I figured they'd be important.

And you didn't think to ask

who ordered that man
to collect the ledgers?

Were you the one who gave the order
by any chance?

Oh dear.

I had no idea.

But even if I did,

should I have gone to you

or His Majesty in that situation?

Don't you think you disgraced
Lord Han,

who was innocent,
because you got ahead of yourself?

If he was, Royal Inspector's Office
would've proved it as per the law.

I'd like to know
why you interrupted those soldiers

who were under His Majesty's orders.

Did you side with Lord Han

because his son is your friend?

Isn't that a problem then?

Your Highness, you just showed that

the future king is someone

who can't even keep
his private and public life separate.

Lord Cho.

Lord Han
and Section Chief Han were innocent.

Father.

Lord Cho framed Lord Han,
not letting you know what he found.

You must charge him...

Your Majesty, how was your gamseon?

Did you accept that the lightning that
struck the plum tree was the anger of God?

But if it was just a mere trick to curse
the royal family,

I thought, as your loyal subject,

I should find the culprit

to make you feel at ease.

I was being loyal, Your Majesty.

Your Majesty.

I beg you to understand.

What Lord Cho did

was right.

He was acting out of loyalty.

Crown Prince, you can't be involved
in political affairs.

Realize your position
and act with caution.

And since the plum tree wasn't

God's doing,

please go back to your regular meal.

If it isn't Lord Han.

I hope you understand
what happened last night.

These things happen
when you handle state affairs.

How is framing a high-ranking officer

a state affair?

Can you not tell the difference

between loyalty
and your own selfish desires?

If something bad happens to His Majesty,

you risk getting shamed

and if His Majesty is disgraced,
you risk your life

and follow him out of fidelity.
That's what loyalty is.

While His Majesty

even started gamseon,

you tried to use that
let alone show loyalty.

Come on.
How could you say something that harsh?

How could have dared to suspect you?

But as a high-ranking official,

how could I ignore the law?

Regardless of who gives the order,

think of it as a matter of procedure.

And even if something happened to you,

you seem to have nothing to worry about.

Your son is a section chief

and a good friend of His Highness.

I'm just saying you must feel reassured.

I envy you.

The royal secretary's journal
from 10 years ago?

I'm going to find out
what happened 10 years ago

in Byeokcheon.

Don't you already have

the royal secretary's journal memorized?

Not just anyone is allowed
to read the journal.

How could I have memorized it
when I've never seen it before?

Is there a way to see the journal?

Aren't you and Secretary Oh
of the Office of Royal Secretariat friends?

His father was kicked out

when expostulated with the protestors
who were gathered in front of Cho's house.

After that, he wandered around the border
before passing away,

so he must have a deep resentment
for the Cho family.

I'm going to find out what happened
in Byeokcheon 10 years ago.

If you tell him that,

he'll know what I mean.

Yes, Your Highness.
I'll go meet Secretary Oh.

ROYAL SECRETARY'S JOURNAL PART A

Secretary Oh is on night duty tomorrow,

so make sure to return the book by then.

Yes, Section Chief Han.

Your Majesty,
since Lord Han has been proven innocent,

we must find out
who set fire to the plum tree.

The shaman talked about the Song family
as she was dying.

How could the shaman disdain

the royal family and the country

if it wasn't
the remnants of the Byeokcheon thieves?

Your Majesty, if there are remnants
of Byeokcheon thieves from 10 years ago,

shouldn't Lord Cho, who failed
to eradicate them in the first place,

be held responsible?

Lord Han.
How could you say such a thing?

Your Majesty, he is disdaining you.
You named Lord Cho

a merit subject after he risked his life

to get rid of those thieves.

Gosh.

"May 15th,
Cho Won-bo of the Ministry of Defense

told the Border Defense Council that

at Byeokcheon of Pyongan Province

a band of thieves gathered
strong young men to start a rebellion

so many villages of Pyongan
were in chaos."

10 YEARS AGO

Please...

Don't kill me.

The leader of the thieves was Song,
the blacksmith of Byeokcheon.

He lead about 40 thieves and invaded

the government office in Byeokcheon

and attacked the soldiers and workers.

They also invaded the Magistrate's Office,
stole the official seal

and took over the government office.

After that, they increased their power

by stealing official crops and weapons

and releasing the prisoners.

They sexually assaulted
every woman they saw

and if they resisted they were slaughtered

without hesitation.

Cho Won-oh, the magistrate,

-Let's go.
-was wrapped in

a straw mat and dumped
far away from Byeokcheon.

Your Majesty.

Set up a general directorate and
reinvestigate that case from 10 years ago.

You must reopen the case.

And if it doesn't match what is written
in the royal secretary's journal,

remove Lord Cho's name
from the merit subject list

and confiscate
the land he got as a reward.

Reopen the case?

Reinvestigating?

Your Majesty,
I am alive and that's the proof.

I still have the scar I got

when Song sliced me in the stomach

with his sickle.

Magistrate Cho Won-oh walked

until he got to Myeongju

and filed an official report
about what happened.

If I didn't survive
after getting sliced by that sickle...

If I didn't walk miles
while bleeding out from my wounds

and file an official report...

Nothing would've stopped them
from invading Hanyang

after invading Byeokcheon
and the surrounding villages.

Gosh.

Your Majesty,
they are the remnants of the thieves

who built their own country.
Reopening the case cannot be done.

Your Majesty, please reopen the case
and right what's wrong.

Your Majesty,
please remember why you made me

in charge of the Office
of Military Affairs 10 years ago.

Minister of Defense.

Go to Byeokcheon

and find out if Cho Won-oh's report is
true or not.

What should do if the report is true,
Your Majesty?

Should I send a messenger to receive
a new order from you,Your Majesty?

If the report is true,
then time is of the essence.

If there are delays,
things could get worse, Your Majesty.

If the report is true,

then you must subjugate them.

Then will you make me in charge of
the Office of Military Affairs?

I will do as you ordered, Your Majesty.

I, Cho Won-bo, the Minister of Defense

will go and subjugate those thieves

that have been wreaking havoc

as per your orders.

SONG

In June,

His Majesty sent Cho Won-bo to Byeokcheon
as a civil governor of Pyongan Province

to find out what's going on

and to subjugate the thieves.

When I got to Byeokcheon,

about three hundred houses
were already on fire.

They had already taken over

five villages near Byeokcheon

and those atrocious thieves

were building a new country.

Subjugate the thieves!

Get every last one of them.

They are thieves
who brought chaos to the country!

Shoot.

Hooray!

Minister of Defense
and civil governor of Pyongan Province

subjugated the thieves

and came back victorious.

It was one month
after the report had been filed.

Song, the leader of the thieves,
was arrested

and hung alive
as per His Majesty's orders

and died after ten days.

"His Majesty rewarded Cho Won-bo,

who subjugated the thieves

by making him his in-law

and recorded him
as a major contributor to disasters.

He was also rewarded
120 gyeols of merit land

and 15 slaves."

Byeokcheon, the source of the uprising,
was burned down

and was named a village of treason

and was ordered to stop any kind of treason
from that point forward.

This is the official report

of the thieves of Byeokcheon and Song.

Your Highness, all the cases are pointing
to Byeokcheon.

-What's going on?

I'm not sure if this related

to the shaman's murder case,

but around then

a woman visited
the Office of Shamanism often.

A woman...

Did you see her face?

No, she was wearing a veil.

Every time the head shaman visited
the prayer site in Gaeseong,

she came to the Office of Shamanism.

A woman?

I'm sure the thieves had a woman
running errands for them.

If there are remnants of thieves left,
we should just kill them all.

Why are they trying to investigate
a case that's already closed?

Are they trying to take away

the merit land they gave to you?

It's can't be one
of the court ladies, right?

How is the Grand Prince?

He couldn't sleep,

so the royal physician brewed him
some medicine.

He just fell asleep.

I told the court ladies
to let me know when he wakes up.

Your Highness,
you must become the Queen Dowager.

Become the royal grandmother
and the Grand Queen Dowager.

Become the most powerful woman

in Joseon.

I will

make sure that happens.

What's wrong, Your Highness?

You were just smiling.

I was?

I guess I couldn't help it.

Look at those carp.

They are just normal carp, aren't they?

They are not just normal carps.

When Her Highness entered
the palace 10 years ago,

His Majesty brought those fishes

so Her Highness won't get lonely.

Back then, the palace was
such a big and lonely place.

I used to come here and cry often.

When His Highness saw me,

he was worried that I was crying
while looking at plain water

so he had a school of fish brought in.

That's why I smiled.

He is so warm-hearted, is he not?

Doesn't that look like a piece of painting?

I can't believe someone
as pretty as her was born into our family.

Plus, when you came back

from Byeokcheon victorious,

your niece caught His Majesty's eyes.

Isn't that peculiar?

Our family must be blessed
with God's fortune.

Uncle, are you trying to make
Myeong-ahn ascend the throne

so you can go over His Majesty's head?

That will never happen.

I'm not sure

if you'll even be alive by then.

By the time that happens,

your funeral would've been held already.

Tell Secretary Oh I'm thankful.

It would be best if you take
a look before you give it back.

Yes, Your Highness.

And you must find
Oh Man-sik of the Office of Taoism.

He has something to do with the shaman.

Bring him to me alive.

I will uproot you
and rip you limb from limb.

Their souls will have nowhere to go to

and will be wandering around forever!

Your Highness, what's wrong?

Light the room.

I can't sleep. It's too scary.

Yes, Your Highness.

We're on our way to see the Grand Prince.

What's all this?

His Highness said that he's scared

and told us to light the room.

It's fine. Please go back.

Bring more lights.

Make the room brighter.

What's wrong?

Did you have a nightmare?

Mother, he...

He sent a snake to kill me.

Song sent a snake.

The leader of the thieves of Byeokcheon

will send a snake to kill me.

Just like how the snake killed the shaman,

he's going to kill me too.

Mother, please call grandfather.

Please ask him to get rid of the ghost

as he did that vicious thief.

I hate snakes and I hate Song. I'm scared.

It's terrifying.

She said the Song family will destroy
our family.

No, that's not true.

That thief will send another snake.

I'm a Lee, so he'll come to kill me.

I told you that's not true.

Why won't you listen to me?

Song

isn't like that.

Mother.

He would

never kill you.

And he is not

the leader of thieves.

I know.

He will never kill you

and he will never send a snake.

It's just a dream.

Do you understand?

How do you know Song, Mother?

Your Highness.

Eunuch Kang
from the Office of Royal Falconry is here.

Come in.

You called, Your Highness?

I wanted to ask you something.

Ask away, Your Highness.

I hear

you're from Byeokcheon.

I called because I wanted to ask you
something about Byeokcheon.

His Highness has summoned

a eunuch from Byeokcheon.

SPECIAL THANKS TO YOON SEOK-HYUN

OUR BLOOMING YOUTH

Rumor has it that His Highness
is summoning

eunuchs and court ladies from Byeokcheon.

Your Highness,
what is it that you want to know?

Isn't it strange?

If that's true...

How dare the future king of Joseon protect

the thieves
who has brought chaos to the country.

What should we do?

Did you really not see?

Your Highness.

Open the door right now!
