1
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,207
(Episode 1)
2
00:02:02,337 --> 00:02:05,898
Sir! Sir!
3
00:02:08,343 --> 00:02:10,072
Lt. General...
4
00:02:10,246 --> 00:02:11,611
What is it?
5
00:02:11,947 --> 00:02:17,146
The King ordered you & a royal minister
to bestow poison upon the deposed queen
6
00:02:17,186 --> 00:02:23,091
What? How could this be...
7
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,189
Why has this order fallen on me?
8
00:02:28,230 --> 00:02:31,961
I don't know, but the Minister of
Royal Guards has ordered...
9
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,468
that you do this immediately
10
00:02:39,741 --> 00:02:42,073
13th year of King Sungjong's Rule
(1482) August
11
00:02:44,179 --> 00:02:49,583
Minister, it's been over 3 years
since the queen was deposed
12
00:02:49,618 --> 00:02:57,753
Isn't poison for walking out
of her residence an excessive order?
13
00:02:58,694 --> 00:03:01,060
She's the mother of the Crown Prince
14
00:03:03,398 --> 00:03:05,798
If he takes the throne...
15
00:03:06,668 --> 00:03:10,832
Don't worry about it
Nothing bad will happen
16
00:03:16,512 --> 00:03:18,377
Would you like a sip?
17
00:03:19,948 --> 00:03:22,678
How are you going
to watch it sober?
18
00:03:44,273 --> 00:03:47,674
Are you OK? How is he?
19
00:03:47,709 --> 00:03:50,007
I think he hurt his ankle
20
00:03:52,447 --> 00:03:56,747
I'm so sorry
All of sudden, the horse...
21
00:03:59,321 --> 00:04:02,449
Even the horse doesn't want to
go to the deposed queen's house
22
00:04:02,491 --> 00:04:06,188
Why else would a horse
jump like a mad man?
23
00:04:06,695 --> 00:04:09,459
Did you drink wine?
24
00:04:11,166 --> 00:04:15,227
How dare you be so insolent while
carrying out the King's order?
25
00:04:15,704 --> 00:04:17,797
I deserve to die, sir
26
00:04:20,943 --> 00:04:22,706
Can you move?
27
00:04:22,744 --> 00:04:24,268
Yes
28
00:04:30,686 --> 00:04:34,383
I'll carry out the order
even if I need help
29
00:04:34,423 --> 00:04:38,257
It's OK
What can you do in that condition?
30
00:04:38,293 --> 00:04:42,889
Wretch! You'll pay for
your crime later
31
00:04:42,931 --> 00:04:46,833
Due to the circumstances
get him to a doctor quickly!
32
00:04:46,868 --> 00:04:48,529
Yes, sir!
33
00:05:13,161 --> 00:05:15,459
Deposed Queen Yoon is
wicked and dangerous by nature
34
00:05:15,497 --> 00:05:20,958
and she's done many perverse things
In the past, while in the court
35
00:05:21,003 --> 00:05:27,772
her atrocities grew worse,
but I was indecisive about her
36
00:05:27,809 --> 00:05:31,176
because she was the mother
of the Crown Prince
37
00:05:31,213 --> 00:05:38,016
And it has caused the nation
to crumble beyond remedy
38
00:05:38,787 --> 00:05:46,091
I order her to drink poison
on August 16 at her house
39
00:05:53,301 --> 00:05:55,462
I shall see the King
40
00:05:57,706 --> 00:06:02,643
If he tells me to, I shall drink it
Bring the King
41
00:06:03,211 --> 00:06:06,578
The criminal must be silent
This is the King's command
42
00:06:06,615 --> 00:06:11,416
It can't be. He's not a king
who'd kill his son's mother
43
00:06:11,453 --> 00:06:16,254
because she ran out on bare feet
to see her son
44
00:06:16,291 --> 00:06:20,591
This is clearly a plot to
do harm to the royal line
45
00:06:20,629 --> 00:06:27,501
Shut up. How dare you speak
such blasphemous words!
46
00:06:27,536 --> 00:06:30,801
Give her the poison
47
00:06:32,174 --> 00:06:36,543
Stop! I'm the mother
of the Crown Prince
48
00:06:36,578 --> 00:06:41,379
If you still insist on killing me
then bring the Prince here!
49
00:06:42,250 --> 00:06:44,741
Captain, make her drink
the poison now
50
00:06:46,421 --> 00:06:48,616
Do it now!
51
00:06:49,057 --> 00:06:52,788
Stay away!
How dare you approach me!
52
00:06:53,795 --> 00:06:59,165
You'll disobey the King's command?
Make her drink it now!
53
00:07:00,702 --> 00:07:02,260
Hold her
54
00:07:02,304 --> 00:07:06,240
Stop! How dare you!
55
00:07:09,277 --> 00:07:16,843
Don't touch me. I was the Queen
of this nation. I'll drink it myself
56
00:07:17,853 --> 00:07:20,117
I'll drink it myself
57
00:07:27,329 --> 00:07:37,398
Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
58
00:07:38,740 --> 00:07:46,875
Crown Prince! Do ascend the throne
and wreak my vengeance
59
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:20,978
Mother... please tell the Crown Prince
of their atrocity
60
00:08:22,984 --> 00:08:32,188
You wretches, you shall pay for this
61
00:08:38,500 --> 00:08:45,064
Your Majesty
62
00:09:23,044 --> 00:09:25,842
Crown Prince Yoong
(Later called Yeonsan-Kun)
63
00:09:27,415 --> 00:09:28,746
Your Majesty
64
00:09:28,783 --> 00:09:31,547
Are the court ladies coming this way?
65
00:09:32,354 --> 00:09:34,379
Yes, they are
66
00:09:34,422 --> 00:09:36,652
Don't tell them you saw me
67
00:09:36,691 --> 00:09:38,454
Yes, Your Majesty
68
00:09:39,895 --> 00:09:48,963
Your Majesty, where are you?
We give up, Your Majesty!
69
00:09:49,004 --> 00:09:54,704
Please come out, Your Majesty!
70
00:10:17,699 --> 00:10:27,006
You wretches, you shall pay for this
71
00:11:00,375 --> 00:11:02,138
Stop!
72
00:11:10,251 --> 00:11:13,220
Your Majesty!
73
00:11:15,490 --> 00:11:19,426
Stop! I'm the mother
of the Crown Prince!
74
00:11:19,461 --> 00:11:24,023
Bring the Prince to me!
Your Majesty!
75
00:11:25,533 --> 00:11:28,525
How dare you!
76
00:12:00,368 --> 00:12:02,461
Are you awake now?
77
00:12:04,606 --> 00:12:07,268
Drink all of it
78
00:12:30,698 --> 00:12:35,897
I must've gone unconscious
after falling down from a mountain
79
00:12:36,071 --> 00:12:42,704
Your arm's hurt. You should be fine
after a few days of rest
80
00:12:44,412 --> 00:12:46,676
Thank you
81
00:12:50,618 --> 00:12:59,686
Sir, I have to be on my way,
so please tell me the way out
82
00:13:04,199 --> 00:13:05,860
Sir
83
00:13:07,068 --> 00:13:10,367
You don't seem to be the kind
to harm someone else
84
00:13:10,405 --> 00:13:14,364
but why do you have
a storm of blood in your hands?
85
00:13:14,409 --> 00:13:19,847
Excuse me? What do you mean, sir?
86
00:13:22,917 --> 00:13:26,318
Your fate, what a pity...
87
00:13:26,721 --> 00:13:29,815
What do you mean, sir?
88
00:13:31,659 --> 00:13:38,861
Please explain to me
Why do you pity my fate?
89
00:13:40,869 --> 00:13:46,637
Three women are holding your fate
90
00:13:49,244 --> 00:13:54,944
Even though you killed the first woman
you will not die
91
00:13:56,084 --> 00:14:02,182
The second will die because of you
even though you save her
92
00:14:03,992 --> 00:14:11,262
And the third will kill you
but she will save many lives
93
00:14:26,981 --> 00:14:33,250
Sir, what shall I do? What can I do
to free myself from this fate?
94
00:14:33,788 --> 00:14:37,019
The best thing is not to meet them
95
00:14:37,192 --> 00:14:41,686
How? How can I not meet
the first woman?
96
00:14:42,730 --> 00:14:45,756
Haven't you already met her?
97
00:14:47,202 --> 00:14:50,330
That's why it's a pity...
98
00:14:52,907 --> 00:15:01,007
And the second... no...
I will die because of the third woman?
99
00:15:01,416 --> 00:15:07,286
Then how can I not meet
the third woman?
100
00:15:07,822 --> 00:15:10,689
Don't meet the second woman
101
00:15:10,725 --> 00:15:14,525
Then how can I not meet
the second woman?
102
00:15:16,164 --> 00:15:18,394
Please tell me, sir
103
00:15:35,350 --> 00:15:38,808
What do these mean, sir?
104
00:15:43,124 --> 00:15:53,932
Sir! Please wait, sir!
105
00:16:02,443 --> 00:16:04,104
What could they mean?
106
00:16:04,145 --> 00:16:07,740
This is "geum," which means rash
107
00:16:07,782 --> 00:16:10,649
This is "soon," meaning meek
108
00:16:10,685 --> 00:16:14,587
This is "ho," meaning good
109
00:16:14,622 --> 00:16:23,394
Refer to women? A rash woman,
a meek woman, and a good woman
110
00:16:23,431 --> 00:16:27,197
Do you have any ideas?
111
00:16:28,436 --> 00:16:29,733
No
112
00:16:30,638 --> 00:16:36,338
People have used compound words
to tell secrets since ancient times
113
00:16:36,377 --> 00:16:38,368
What do you mean by compound words?
114
00:16:38,413 --> 00:16:41,905
Don't you know? When King Taejo
founded this kingdom
115
00:16:41,949 --> 00:16:46,943
people talked of "mok-ja-deuk-guk"
(tree, son, gain, kingdom)
116
00:16:46,988 --> 00:16:53,484
Here "mok"(tree) and "ja"(son)
Combined to form "Yi"
117
00:16:53,528 --> 00:16:56,725
It meant a person whose last name
is Yi would gain the kingdom
118
00:16:56,764 --> 00:17:00,825
If they are elements,
what would the compound meaning be?
119
00:17:00,868 --> 00:17:07,068
"Geum" is a compound of "yeo"(woman)
And "geum"(now, today)
120
00:17:07,108 --> 00:17:12,205
It could mean "woman you met today"
When did you get these?
121
00:17:13,948 --> 00:17:16,348
I received them yesterday
122
00:17:16,484 --> 00:17:21,820
Woman you met yesterday
Is there any woman you met yesterday?
123
00:17:28,096 --> 00:17:32,260
Seeing your face,
I guess you did meet a woman
124
00:17:32,300 --> 00:17:35,827
Then the rest should be
deciphered as elements too
125
00:17:35,870 --> 00:17:40,830
The second woman has to do with
"cheon"(creek) and "hyeol"(head)
126
00:17:41,209 --> 00:17:46,647
And the third is related to
"yeo"(woman) and "ja"(son, child)
127
00:17:53,621 --> 00:17:57,921
So I will die
because of the deposed queen?
128
00:17:58,726 --> 00:18:04,323
And who are those two
other women I will be meeting?
129
00:18:27,655 --> 00:18:30,920
2 nd year of Yeonsan-Kun's Rule
(1496) July
130
00:18:31,225 --> 00:18:37,755
Sir! Please wait!
131
00:18:43,938 --> 00:18:46,372
It must be that stupid
spiritual master again
132
00:18:46,908 --> 00:18:52,073
It's been 14 years already
Anyway did you really meet him?
133
00:18:58,886 --> 00:19:02,117
Are you sure that old guy
gave you those characters?
134
00:19:04,292 --> 00:19:08,729
Even if that's true, you're 40
and you still haven't gotten married
135
00:19:08,763 --> 00:19:13,166
because of that old man
Do you even look at girls?
136
00:19:14,502 --> 00:19:18,063
And how could you think of
quitting your job?
137
00:19:22,009 --> 00:19:26,002
I think it's all in your own mind
138
00:19:26,047 --> 00:19:30,006
You're just feeling guilty
because the ruler has changed
139
00:19:39,360 --> 00:19:41,988
You're not even listening to me
You said you're quitting
140
00:19:42,029 --> 00:19:47,399
So how will you make a living
from now on?
141
00:19:51,939 --> 00:19:53,702
I'm leaving here
142
00:19:53,741 --> 00:19:56,073
What? When?
143
00:19:56,944 --> 00:20:00,880
Today's my last day of work
I'll leave tomorrow morning
144
00:20:01,015 --> 00:20:03,142
What a fool you are!
145
00:20:04,218 --> 00:20:07,381
I can't forget those eyes
146
00:20:09,891 --> 00:20:13,691
The eyes of the deposed Queen
looking at me
147
00:20:16,797 --> 00:20:19,823
Yeah, same here
148
00:20:21,302 --> 00:20:26,171
Did you hear how cruelly
His Majesty killed the deer
149
00:20:26,207 --> 00:20:30,769
that former King Sungjong
loved so dearly?
150
00:20:32,580 --> 00:20:37,040
I know that he killed
his own childhood teacher
151
00:20:37,084 --> 00:20:41,783
Think what he might be capable of
if he finds out about his mother
152
00:20:41,822 --> 00:20:45,121
Just imagine what might happen
153
00:21:24,565 --> 00:21:28,296
Madam, did you call for me?
154
00:21:28,336 --> 00:21:33,672
Yes. The King is asking for
your steamed bear-foot dish again
155
00:21:33,708 --> 00:21:36,734
Lady Choi has rushed to prepare
the ingredients, so go take a look
156
00:21:36,777 --> 00:21:38,005
Yes, ma'am
157
00:22:24,692 --> 00:22:26,455
Is everything ready?
158
00:22:26,494 --> 00:22:27,620
Yes
159
00:22:39,006 --> 00:22:40,303
I'll try again
160
00:22:40,341 --> 00:22:41,831
What did you do wrong?
161
00:22:41,876 --> 00:22:46,540
You still haven't learned the amount
of perilla oil that the King likes?
162
00:22:48,849 --> 00:22:50,248
You make them again
163
00:22:50,284 --> 00:22:51,751
Yes, ma'am
164
00:23:00,828 --> 00:23:06,027
The wind will weaken the aroma
so prepare...
165
00:23:06,067 --> 00:23:09,434
the final ingredients separately
I will do it myself
166
00:23:09,904 --> 00:23:12,566
You can go and wear the garments now
167
00:23:12,673 --> 00:23:13,367
Yes, ma'am
168
00:23:18,646 --> 00:23:21,274
Bring me the garments
Yes, Madam
169
00:23:23,350 --> 00:23:26,183
Madam, I'm your servant Myeong
170
00:23:26,220 --> 00:23:27,448
What is it?
171
00:23:27,488 --> 00:23:29,183
I have something to tell you
172
00:23:29,223 --> 00:23:30,781
Come in
173
00:23:34,895 --> 00:23:36,453
Have a seat
174
00:23:38,999 --> 00:23:40,489
What is it?
175
00:23:42,703 --> 00:23:44,637
I'm asking you what this is about
176
00:23:45,172 --> 00:23:51,304
It's about the food the King ordered
to send to his grandmother
177
00:23:51,879 --> 00:23:56,976
Isn't it a special dish from the
Royal Kitchen for hypertrophy?
178
00:23:57,651 --> 00:24:06,423
Yes, but Lady Choi's adding wolfsbane
root and cnidium officinale with garlic
179
00:24:07,027 --> 00:24:09,894
Isn't wolfsbane root used for
such symptoms?
180
00:24:10,131 --> 00:24:16,798
Yes, but using it raw
causes dizziness
181
00:24:16,837 --> 00:24:22,605
and using raw cnidium officinale
causes hindrance to the flow of energy
182
00:24:22,643 --> 00:24:26,511
thereby causing sickness
And it's not used for hypertrophy
183
00:24:26,714 --> 00:24:31,048
At first, I thought nothing of it
thinking that...
184
00:24:31,085 --> 00:24:35,579
it was good medicine
prescribed by the pharmacists
185
00:24:35,623 --> 00:24:39,150
but I was worried that
her symptoms might get worse
186
00:24:39,326 --> 00:24:41,760
Are you sure about this?
187
00:24:42,229 --> 00:24:43,696
Yes, ma'am
188
00:24:44,165 --> 00:24:45,826
When did this start?
189
00:24:45,866 --> 00:24:47,993
It's been four days now
190
00:24:49,503 --> 00:24:54,770
You mean it started on the day
the King ordered it?
191
00:24:57,344 --> 00:25:00,541
Why have you been
so watchful of Lady Choi?
192
00:25:00,581 --> 00:25:03,175
It was incidental, ma'am
193
00:25:07,054 --> 00:25:10,581
Who else knows about this?
194
00:25:11,358 --> 00:25:13,826
I'm the only one
195
00:25:14,161 --> 00:25:15,788
Are you sure?
196
00:25:16,163 --> 00:25:17,596
Yes
197
00:25:19,266 --> 00:25:25,205
OK. I'll take care of this secretly
so don't tell anyone about this
198
00:25:25,239 --> 00:25:27,070
Yes, Madam
199
00:25:37,017 --> 00:25:38,985
Baek-Yeong, one moment
200
00:25:39,386 --> 00:25:41,616
What is it? I have to get going
201
00:25:41,956 --> 00:25:43,446
I told her about it
202
00:25:43,490 --> 00:25:46,084
Who? The Highest Kitchen Lady?
203
00:25:46,126 --> 00:25:47,559
No, the Taster Lady
204
00:25:47,828 --> 00:25:53,266
Good, I think that's better
What did she say?
205
00:25:53,300 --> 00:25:55,666
She's going to take care of it
206
00:25:55,703 --> 00:26:00,106
She asked me if anyone else knew,
but I didn't tell her about you
207
00:26:00,140 --> 00:26:01,471
Why not?
208
00:26:01,508 --> 00:26:03,135
You never know...
209
00:26:04,445 --> 00:26:06,003
Baek-Yeong!
210
00:26:06,213 --> 00:26:07,180
I have to get going...
211
00:26:07,214 --> 00:26:10,149
the side dish ingredients
for tonight have been spoiled
212
00:26:10,184 --> 00:26:11,378
Oh, no...
213
00:26:11,418 --> 00:26:13,443
Let's talk later Sure
214
00:26:22,496 --> 00:26:24,088
Excuse me...
215
00:26:24,498 --> 00:26:26,056
What is it this time?
216
00:26:27,935 --> 00:26:29,596
What's this?
217
00:26:29,870 --> 00:26:32,236
It's a face powder from China
218
00:26:32,373 --> 00:26:35,001
I'm only a servant here
If you keep on doing this
219
00:26:35,042 --> 00:26:37,476
I'm going to tell the Head Lady
220
00:26:37,544 --> 00:26:44,450
I have no other intention
but to pay you back in gratitude
221
00:26:44,485 --> 00:26:47,079
Please do receive it
222
00:26:51,558 --> 00:26:56,552
What's this? Isn't this
face powder for Chinese women?
223
00:26:56,597 --> 00:26:59,589
You must be so happy
Myeong, share it with me
224
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:01,064
Sure
225
00:27:01,335 --> 00:27:04,896
Isn't he overdoing it even though
he may be indebted to you?
226
00:27:04,939 --> 00:27:10,275
What does it matter? I wish I had
someone giving me such gifts, too
227
00:27:11,178 --> 00:27:12,770
What are you doing here?
228
00:27:15,115 --> 00:27:18,881
It's almost time for the feast
What are you doing here?
229
00:29:02,523 --> 00:29:03,785
Wait
230
00:29:03,824 --> 00:29:04,813
What is it?
231
00:29:04,858 --> 00:29:06,951
The Highest Kitchen Lady
has called for you
232
00:29:06,994 --> 00:29:08,484
At this time of night?
233
00:29:08,529 --> 00:29:10,394
She has called us as well
234
00:29:17,204 --> 00:29:19,035
She's late
235
00:29:24,545 --> 00:29:25,978
Is it you, Baek-Yeong?
236
00:30:02,049 --> 00:30:03,346
Uncover her
237
00:30:13,427 --> 00:30:15,190
Untie her
238
00:30:21,435 --> 00:30:23,835
Do you acknowledge your crime?
239
00:30:23,871 --> 00:30:25,771
What crime are you talking about?
240
00:30:25,806 --> 00:30:29,469
I will ask you again
Do you acknowledge your crime?
241
00:30:29,510 --> 00:30:32,809
Madam, what is this about?
Please tell me...
242
00:30:32,846 --> 00:30:34,245
why you're treating me this way
243
00:30:34,281 --> 00:30:36,272
How dare you play innocent!
244
00:30:36,316 --> 00:30:37,180
Madam!
245
00:30:37,217 --> 00:30:41,176
What is a court lady?
A court lady is a woman of the King
246
00:30:41,221 --> 00:30:44,918
who must be careful in speech,
conduct, and maintaining dignity
247
00:30:44,958 --> 00:30:48,826
and you must not make eye contact
with any other men
248
00:30:48,862 --> 00:30:51,456
These are the laws
in the Royal Palace
249
00:30:51,498 --> 00:30:55,559
I know that, ma'am and
I've always fulfilled my duties
250
00:30:55,602 --> 00:30:57,729
You've always fulfilled your duties?
251
00:31:01,241 --> 00:31:03,038
Then what are these?
252
00:31:05,479 --> 00:31:07,947
Those... they are...
253
00:31:07,981 --> 00:31:10,779
Do you know the officer
who guards the Manchun Gate?
254
00:31:11,218 --> 00:31:14,585
You were with him
late at night once, right?
255
00:31:15,689 --> 00:31:17,680
Is that true or not?
256
00:31:17,724 --> 00:31:23,094
True, but it's because he collapsed
on the ground with a stomachache
257
00:31:23,130 --> 00:31:25,564
and I gave him first-aid treatment
258
00:31:25,599 --> 00:31:27,794
How did you treat him?
259
00:31:27,834 --> 00:31:32,100
I gave him a cup of hot water
and some medicine
260
00:31:32,139 --> 00:31:36,269
So in gratitude he gave you
this valuable pendant and powder?
261
00:31:36,310 --> 00:31:39,006
And you just accepted them
without much thought?
262
00:31:39,046 --> 00:31:41,173
Madam, that's not how it is...
263
00:31:41,215 --> 00:31:45,982
Witch! How dare you lie to me!
If he'd collapsed with a stomachache
264
00:31:46,019 --> 00:31:50,547
you should've gone to another officer
And even if you did treat him
265
00:31:50,591 --> 00:31:53,321
how could he possibly give you
these precious items
266
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:58,320
and how could you receive them?
267
00:31:59,032 --> 00:32:01,762
Unless you've become
intimate with him
268
00:32:01,802 --> 00:32:02,928
who could explain these?
269
00:32:02,970 --> 00:32:06,838
Madam! That isn't true!
Truly, that isn't so!
270
00:32:06,873 --> 00:32:11,333
Shut up! Tell me what
you saw four days ago
271
00:32:14,448 --> 00:32:18,043
I saw Lady Park and some man...
272
00:32:18,085 --> 00:32:20,918
entering the warehouse
together at night
273
00:32:24,491 --> 00:32:27,858
Madam, never... never...
has such a thing occurred
274
00:32:27,894 --> 00:32:32,422
Isn't that why...
you've spoken ill of Lady Choi?
275
00:32:32,466 --> 00:32:35,458
That isn't true! That isn't true!
276
00:32:35,502 --> 00:32:39,563
If you've disgraced yourself that way
it is only proper for a court lady...
277
00:32:39,606 --> 00:32:43,042
to end her life, and yet
you even tried to frame your friend
278
00:32:43,076 --> 00:32:46,204
You ought to pay for
your sin by death
279
00:33:03,030 --> 00:33:05,123
When you first became court ladies
what did we say
280
00:33:05,165 --> 00:33:07,099
the consequences were
for betraying the King
281
00:33:07,134 --> 00:33:10,297
by approaching a man
or betraying your friend?
282
00:33:10,337 --> 00:33:14,501
Madam, this is unfair!
I'm being falsely accused!
283
00:33:14,541 --> 00:33:16,099
Go ahead!
284
00:33:23,784 --> 00:33:25,251
What are you doing?
285
00:34:04,858 --> 00:34:10,319
Remember this well and
never let such a thing happen again!
286
00:34:16,503 --> 00:34:19,063
Hide the body and go back
287
00:34:49,436 --> 00:34:51,063
Stop crying
288
00:34:51,104 --> 00:34:54,471
But Aunt, did we really
have to go that far...?
289
00:34:54,508 --> 00:35:01,914
How ignorant... a seed surely grows
to blossom and bear fruit
290
00:35:01,948 --> 00:35:05,213
and likewise the seed of fire
certainly blazes up
291
00:35:06,753 --> 00:35:10,814
You can't keep this position
with such a soft heart
292
00:35:12,325 --> 00:35:15,453
Though in private you are my niece
293
00:35:15,495 --> 00:35:18,896
you're the successor to
the Highest Lady of the Royal Kitchen
294
00:35:18,932 --> 00:35:24,529
and that position is the foothold
of our family's prosperity
295
00:35:25,138 --> 00:35:28,164
What do you think was the foundation
of our family's great fortune
296
00:35:28,208 --> 00:35:32,304
when our family is only middle-class?
297
00:35:34,181 --> 00:35:39,517
Our family has produced
5 Highest Kitchen Ladies
298
00:35:39,553 --> 00:35:42,613
serving 6 kings since King Moonjong
299
00:35:43,323 --> 00:35:46,520
What do you think made it
possible in this palace
300
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,825
where no one knows
who will be killed next?
301
00:35:50,831 --> 00:35:53,857
Do you know how our 5th great
grandmother Lady Choi Mal-Hee
302
00:35:53,900 --> 00:35:59,702
had become the Highest Lady
for the first time?
303
00:36:01,908 --> 00:36:06,971
She kept serving pork to King Moonjong
who was suffering from boils
304
00:36:07,481 --> 00:36:12,885
But meat is forbidden for boils
Physicians couldn't have allowed it
305
00:36:12,919 --> 00:36:19,654
Exactly. The physicians were
people of next King Sejo
306
00:36:19,693 --> 00:36:26,929
Lady Choi realized this
and she threw herself...
307
00:36:26,967 --> 00:36:30,994
to the flow of power,
risking her own life
308
00:36:31,037 --> 00:36:37,033
Everyone's lives are
on the line already
309
00:36:37,077 --> 00:36:41,946
Stop being timid
and understand the times
310
00:36:41,982 --> 00:36:47,079
and always learn from us
so that you don't make mistakes
311
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,350
Our family and our lives
depend on this
312
00:37:15,348 --> 00:37:19,250
She asked me if anyone else knew,
but I didn't tell her about you
313
00:37:19,419 --> 00:37:20,443
Why not?
314
00:37:20,487 --> 00:37:22,284
You never know...
315
00:37:29,229 --> 00:37:34,724
Myeong, please... please...
316
00:39:04,658 --> 00:39:07,422
Hello! Hey!
317
00:39:38,558 --> 00:39:42,187
Priest! Priest, are you here?
318
00:39:43,763 --> 00:39:45,253
What's wrong?
319
00:39:45,298 --> 00:39:48,790
Priest, she's dying. Please help
320
00:39:48,835 --> 00:39:50,564
Come inside
321
00:40:09,689 --> 00:40:11,281
What is it?
322
00:40:11,324 --> 00:40:13,656
She seems to have taken buja tonic
323
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:18,493
You mean the one used as poison?
Is there any hope?
324
00:40:18,531 --> 00:40:22,023
But seeing how she still
has some life left in her
325
00:40:22,068 --> 00:40:25,162
she must've taken small amounts
or taken some antidote
326
00:40:25,205 --> 00:40:27,070
Then can she survive?
327
00:40:27,107 --> 00:40:30,099
I'll go make the antidote,
so you follow me
328
00:40:30,143 --> 00:40:32,771
It'll take some time
to make the antidote
329
00:40:32,812 --> 00:40:37,408
so boil water with some mung beans
and then have her drink it
330
00:40:37,450 --> 00:40:40,419
It helps to detoxify too
331
00:40:40,453 --> 00:40:41,545
OK
332
00:40:49,429 --> 00:40:54,025
Here are the mung beans
Boil them in water and give it to her
333
00:40:54,067 --> 00:40:59,164
She'll vomit and that's a good sign
so you have to keep feeding her
334
00:40:59,205 --> 00:41:00,934
There's the medicine pot
335
00:41:01,608 --> 00:41:02,597
OK
336
00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:09,237
Drink this
337
00:42:10,944 --> 00:42:12,969
You still have to drink it
338
00:42:27,026 --> 00:42:36,799
Please drink it, so you can live...
339
00:42:44,677 --> 00:42:46,736
Will she be OK?
340
00:42:47,213 --> 00:42:51,877
Though she's grown thin,
I think she's passed the critical point
341
00:42:51,918 --> 00:42:55,513
What did she say was
the reason for taking poison?
342
00:42:55,555 --> 00:43:01,551
I don't know. I only found her
by the stream and brought her here
343
00:43:01,594 --> 00:43:06,725
Anyhow, you have saved her life
344
00:43:07,066 --> 00:43:11,400
What do you mean? Didn't you say
she had already taken an antidote?
345
00:43:11,437 --> 00:43:16,397
Even so, if it weren't for you
she'd be dead by now
346
00:43:16,442 --> 00:43:21,106
You have done a great deed
347
00:43:51,277 --> 00:43:56,613
Anyhow, you have saved her life
348
00:44:22,842 --> 00:44:27,973
"Soon"(Meek), with simple words
of "cheon"(creek) and "hyeol"(head)
349
00:44:28,448 --> 00:44:36,150
She had her head in the creek
Could she be the second woman?
350
00:44:36,189 --> 00:44:42,321
The second will die because of you,
even though you save her
351
00:44:42,562 --> 00:44:48,262
In order not to meet the third woman,
don't meet the second
352
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:25,933
And the second... no...
I will die 'cause of the third woman?
353
00:45:25,972 --> 00:45:30,739
Then how can I not meet
the third woman?
354
00:45:31,310 --> 00:45:34,040
Don't meet the second woman
355
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:38,278
Then how can I not meet
the second woman?
356
00:45:38,317 --> 00:45:40,581
Sir! Sir!
357
00:45:54,434 --> 00:45:58,200
Don't try to stop it
He said that vomiting is a good sign
358
00:46:36,375 --> 00:46:43,008
Myeong... are you alive?
They're plotting to murder you
359
00:46:43,049 --> 00:46:45,517
and I don't know what to do
360
00:46:45,551 --> 00:46:50,955
You said buja tonic
could be detoxified with tonic
361
00:46:50,990 --> 00:46:55,825
made with mung beans
but I don't know if you'll survive
362
00:46:55,862 --> 00:47:02,597
Are you still alive, Myeong?
If you're dead, don't forgive me
363
00:47:02,635 --> 00:47:06,537
but if you're alive, listen to me
I don't know the details
364
00:47:06,572 --> 00:47:12,477
but I don't believe that
you've become intimate with a man
365
00:47:12,512 --> 00:47:17,006
Therefore, you must not
come back to the palace
366
00:47:17,049 --> 00:47:23,477
or be found by them
Run far away. Please do live!
367
00:47:23,523 --> 00:47:30,759
You may punish me for
yielding to their threats
368
00:47:30,796 --> 00:47:34,357
I'm so sorry... Myeong...
369
00:48:38,097 --> 00:48:40,065
May I come in?
370
00:48:54,313 --> 00:48:56,076
Please have a seat
371
00:49:05,057 --> 00:49:09,323
There is no other way for me
to repay you for saving my life
372
00:49:09,362 --> 00:49:12,820
Please forgive me for
making a mere curtsy
373
00:49:29,982 --> 00:49:32,951
I have to get going
having only received your grace
374
00:49:33,953 --> 00:49:37,548
It's too early for you to leave
375
00:49:39,859 --> 00:49:43,590
I don't want to allow myself
to be a burden anymore
376
00:49:45,698 --> 00:49:47,757
Where will you go?
377
00:49:52,004 --> 00:49:58,239
You haven't even prepared anything
What will you do?
378
00:49:59,245 --> 00:50:06,242
Don't worry. Thank you again
379
00:50:19,665 --> 00:50:23,123
I'll say bye now
380
00:50:50,896 --> 00:50:56,664
The second will die because of you,
even though you save her
381
00:52:43,709 --> 00:52:45,404
Would you like some porridge?
382
00:52:45,978 --> 00:52:48,242
Thank you, but I have no money
383
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:51,249
It's all right. Go right ahead
384
00:53:02,228 --> 00:53:06,562
I gave her pure rice porridge
as requested, so give me the money
385
00:53:08,267 --> 00:53:10,235
Please set aside a room for her and
386
00:53:10,269 --> 00:53:11,634
get her a new pair of shoes
387
00:53:11,670 --> 00:53:13,934
You're giving me two?
388
00:53:13,973 --> 00:53:16,601
Don't tell her that
I told you to do this
389
00:53:16,642 --> 00:53:18,507
OK
390
00:54:18,437 --> 00:54:21,167
It's hard work
You think you can manage? Yes
391
00:54:21,206 --> 00:54:22,366
OK, then
392
00:54:27,346 --> 00:54:30,713
You look so pretty
When did you come here?
393
00:54:30,749 --> 00:54:32,478
Please stop it
394
00:54:33,052 --> 00:54:36,715
I'm asking you a question
Where are you going? Sit
395
00:54:37,289 --> 00:54:39,280
Pour me a cup!
396
00:54:40,059 --> 00:54:43,290
What are you doing?
Boss is asking for a cup
397
00:54:43,829 --> 00:54:46,923
You look so pretty
398
00:54:47,700 --> 00:54:48,667
Hey
399
00:54:48,701 --> 00:54:49,759
What's this?
400
00:55:07,653 --> 00:55:13,216
You shouldn't do such work
Your hands aren't for such work
401
00:57:18,550 --> 00:57:24,147
Although I have saved you
he said you will die because of me
402
00:57:28,460 --> 00:57:33,295
It's dangerous to stay with me
403
00:57:34,500 --> 00:57:38,493
I already owe you my life
404
00:57:41,807 --> 00:57:47,109
Please do take care of me
by all means
405
00:58:03,195 --> 00:58:09,498
14 years ago, when I was
an officer in the Royal Militia
406
00:58:09,535 --> 00:58:14,472
I was beside the deposed Queen
when she was poisoned
407
00:58:14,506 --> 00:58:21,537
and on the way back home,
I met this spiritual master
408
00:58:23,916 --> 00:58:30,344
He told me there would be 3 women
who would determine my fate
409
00:58:31,223 --> 00:58:37,458
He said despite killing the first woman
I will not die
410
00:58:38,063 --> 00:58:43,865
I would save the second,
but she would die because of me
411
00:58:45,137 --> 00:58:51,406
And he said the third would kill me,
but she would save many people
412
00:58:53,278 --> 00:58:58,375
He gave me the characters
referring to those women
413
00:58:59,318 --> 00:59:02,845
The first was the deposed Queen Yoon
414
00:59:03,922 --> 00:59:12,955
and the second woman is you
He said you would die because of me
415
00:59:14,733 --> 00:59:17,998
Are you still going to follow me?
416
00:59:26,879 --> 00:59:29,814
8 years later, 10th year of
Yeonsan-Kun's Rule (1504) August
417
01:00:01,847 --> 01:00:03,280
Father!
418
01:00:06,551 --> 01:00:08,348
So did you catch it?
419
01:00:12,491 --> 01:00:17,895
Where's Mother? Where is she?
420
01:00:22,467 --> 01:00:23,991
Mother...
421
01:00:24,403 --> 01:00:26,098
Follow me
422
01:00:30,242 --> 01:00:33,678
What are you doing?
Didn't I tell you to follow me?
423
01:00:34,012 --> 01:00:35,809
Mother...
