[Episode 5]

- Did you find out? - Have you ever heard of Gong Jae Myung?

He's the head of a merchant group with about 100 thugs under him.

By protecting the non-chartered merchants in Samgae Dock and the 7-Banner Market

he made money, and now it seems he's set his sights on the chartered merchants as well.

What?

That kind of low-life, never seen or heard of,has struck my nerve?

Head merchant,

Until when are you going to continue to feed off the rents from the non-chartered merchants (Yoon Tae Won)

to sustain our company?

Now it's time to face Jung Nan Jung head on,

and fight.

Gong Jae Myung

Hey punk, you've picked the wrong person.

I'm not someone with a lot of guts.

Who is Jung Nan Jung.

She is the concubine of this nation's most powerful man, Yoon Won Hyung.

Though she may be called a concubine, her power overshadows even that of

Yoon Won Hyung himself.

Does it make sense to face off with someone like that?

Even if I just continue to

live like this, making small gains and living on a small scale, I don't have any regrets.

It's not so for me.

To become the best, I came to serve under you, Head Merchant.

I planned this incident, not

to hijack some expensive items from Ming,

but to make an official declaration of war against Jung Nan Jung.

Wow this kid, really...

You're making my head hurt huh.

Head Merchant! There's been word from Jung Nan Jung's side.

What did it say? It expressed a desire to meet with you, Head Merchant.

What's going on?

Did she already find out that we were the ones who swooped in on the illegal trafficking site?

- I purposely leaked our identity. - What?

In order for you to meet Jung Nan Jung and make a real deal,

and to conduct real business,

I purposely leaked the information.

Hey... You...!

Geez, I have a horrid feeling about this.

What if I don't die at a proper old age?

There's nothing to be squeamish about.

You are now at the same level as Jung Nan Jung.

You're now in the big leagues.

Punk. Look at the way you talk.

- Ok Nyeo! - Yes

You need to go to Seosoroo

For what?

Constable Sire, requested that you get some mourning clothes.

Ugh. Every time he's got the night shift he drinks like that.

I should just tell on him to the prison warden sire.

Greetings, Company Head.

I believe I'm supposed to be dealing with someone else.

I will be the one to meet with you.

I am head merchant, Min Dong Joo

I'm Gong Jae Myung

and this fellow is my subordinate.

I'm Yoon Tae Won.

I'll get straight to the point.

With what kind of guts did you have to break up our transaction?

If I had known that Jung Nan Jung was your protectorate, then

would I have done something so foolish?

It's something I did without knowing.

Now that you know,

would you return the items that you've hijacked?

As for that, I have a different opinion.

For something that's already come into my hands,

I can't just simply return it to you for nothing.

What did you say? Are you saying you want to fight us?

Well, if it must be.

I have no intentions of avoiding it.

Fine. Since we are also at fault for pathetically losing them,

we will do business with you for the items that came from Ming.

I will pay an appropriate price for them.

If Head Merchant were to do that,

we will do business with you anytime.

Before that, let me offer you a proposal.

Speak.

Become a subordinate under Madame Jung Nan Jung.

Rather than living off the rent you receive from the non-chartered merchants,

I'll let you lead a company of your own under much more favorable conditions.

Join us. There won't be any reason to regret your decision.

Though it is an offer that's hard to refuse,

I have a terrible personality

that is ill-suited for working under someone else.

I'd rather live as the head of a sardine than be the tail of a dragon.

Are you confident enough not to regret your decision?

Naturally I'm quite the fool and so ignorant

that I tend to have regrets.

Is that so?

Hey

How was I back there?

You did well, sir.

Punk, you shook up someone who wants to live long and quietly,

so if it doesn't work out It's all on you.

Jung Nan Jung, my arse.

Hey, what's that?

What is it?

Since the men were running after a woman,

they might try to rape her.

Punk, you are too foolishly kind.

Don't get yourself all involved in some unnecessary business. Let them be.

Did you say your name was Ok Nyeo?

Can you remember who I am? (Gang Sun Ho)

Sir! You were someone that I met at the Police Bureau.

W-What is this place? What's going on?

I had to tell you something in secret,

so I stepped out of line. Please understand.

I have a couple of things to ask of you.

I heard you were born in Jeonokseo (a prison, at the time)

That is so.

Could you tell me how that happened?

I don't know much.

My mother was a prisoner.

I only heard that she died giving birth to me.

That's all.

What I say from this point on

must remain a secret that you carry to your grave.

A secret that must not be revealed to anyone.

Would you be able to keep it?

Though I'm not sure what you're talking about,

I'm not sure why I have to keep that secret.

If you don't

your life will be in danger.

Please go ahead. I will keep the secret.

Though I look like the Police Bureau Supervisor,

in reality, I hold a different identity.

I hide my identity, and partake in bigger things for the sake of the nation,

at times going overseas to Ming or other countries.

What the nation commands

must be accomplished, even if you must risk your own life.

He's an secret intelligence agent.

They call us secret intelligence agents.

I think you're more than capable of becoming a secret intelligence agent.

How about it? Are you willing to be one?

It's such a sudden an offer that

I don't know how to answer.

I know it's hard to decide right now, on the spot.

I will give you four days time to mull it over.

As I said before, you cannot seek advice, regarding my proposal, from anyone.

Only you, yourself must decide.

Take her away.

In four days time, I will go to the Jeonokseo.

Poisoning?

Yes, Your Highness. He even loudly proclaimed he had proof.

It's been decades since the king started his rule...

But, why is he bringing this up suddenly?

People under Daeyoon, that we were unaware of, must have (Daeyoon: leader of political faction under Joongjong's second wife, Queen Janggyeong's family)

sent a letter of complaint to Ming dynasty's royal family.

Are you there, Lady Kim?

Yes, Your Highness.

Put in a word to Gi Choon Soo and tell him to hurry to the palace now. (Queen Munjeong)

Yes, Your Highness.

Just tell them what I said.

Understood.

Are you sleeping?

What brings you here at this late hour?

I couldn't sleep.

Have you still been unable to let go of your regrets?

No, it's not like that.

If you have something that you're concerned about, you can share it with me.

Well... I have something to ask you.

What kind of person becomes a secret intelligence agent?

Why are you asking? Are you planning on becoming a secret intelligence agent?

Oh no... It's not like that.

I'm... just curious.

There weren't any solid pre-requisites per se.

If you were a prisoner about to be beheaded, without siblings or parents,

or someone with exceptional talent, you could be chosen.

I'm sure it won't happen, but even if you get an opportunity to choose,

you must not take it. It's a brutal job where you won't know when you'll die.

But you told me in the past that you enjoyed your work as secret intelligence agent.

You're right. There was a time like that.

When I was young I was proud that I worked for the country.

But... Gradually, from a certain point, I began to receive orders I thought were wrong.

I began to feel I was being used for political means and started to become disillusioned.

My time as a secret intelligence agent was, in my life,

the most brilliant period but also the most painful.

For me... That I might live my entire life as Damo at the Jeonokseo

makes me feel so suffocated.

Why out of all places did my mother collapse in front of the Jeonokseo.

Why was I born in the Jeonokseo, so that even my name became Ok Nyeo(prison girl).

The thought of spending my entire life taking care of the prisoners made me feel shabby and pathetic.

That's true. Your talent is too good to be wasted living as a Jeonokseo Damo.

Someone is coming this way. Hurry and hide.

I am Lieutenant General of the Royal Protectorate, Gi Choon Soo.

What brings you here?

I have something to tell you.

What if you were released from Jeonokseo and returned to work as a secret intelligence agent?

If you complete your mission. All of your crimes will be pardoned

and you can live out the rest of your life in peace.

What is my assignment?

It's an assassination.

Who do you want me to assassinate?

That... I can't tell you.

A long time ago, I was ordered to assassinate my teacher.

I refused that mission and as a consequence was labeled a traitor,

and have been rotting away for 20 years in this underground prison.

I don't want to be exploited again by those who disgraced my good name.

I will... refuse that proposal.

How did it go?

He refused.

You've worked hard. You may go now.

- Did you get it? - I mean... Where are you going to use pig skin?

I'll do good with it, so you just sit tight (Jun Woo Chi)

and enjoy the benefits.

It's really fresh!

Here, here Gods of Heaven and Earth, please bestow on us your energies

Bestow your energies, as number six.

Bestow your energies.

It is number six.

Give us your energies as number six.

I pray to you. I pray to you.

Just once.

Give us all your energies as number six.

Here, here, here. We're going to wager money from now on. So now all of you place your bets. Place them.

Wage them. Wage them. Don't look around and just wager.

Now. All of you have placed your bets right?

Yes!

Here, here.

Hey! You punks here, really.

Hey! You! Jun Woo Chi!

Oh, Treasurer Ji, join us for a round.

- What you did you say, punk? - Aigoo aigoo.

- These punks! - I'll

place my bets with Number six.

We're coming out of the water now.

There, there, there!

Go!

Number six! Number six! Number six!

Coming coming straight here! Six! Six! Six!

Six! Six! Six!

Six! Six! Six!

Here number six!

Hey! Number six! Number six! Number six!

Coming!!!

Number six!

Pay your money here. Money.

Here, here, here. One, two...

Hurry and collect it.

Ok Nyeo! Why don't you come and play too?

Secretary Ji, why is Ok Nyeo acting like that? She seems strange lately.

After failing the Police Bureau Damo exam, she lost all her energy.

I'll win some money and buy her some meat. One more round!

One more round!

One more round. We're going to pick...

Number six.

People like us are called secret intelligence agents.

I feel that you are sufficiently talented and qualified to become a secret intelligence agent.

How about it? Do you want to try it?

I'm sure this won't happen but...

Even if you get an opportunity you must never choose it.

It's a brutal job where you don't know when you'll die.

No matter how hard you look, your not going to find the palace maids from crown prince's quarters.

- They're all dead. - Dead?

Yeah! At first I looked into the court ladies, but they said they died.

Next I looked into the palace maids, but every single person I looked into, they said they were dead.

Even though they are not old enough to die, all are dead.

My Lady!

Becoming secret intelligence agent, rather than a police bureau damo,

could be a faster way of solving the mystery of mother's death.

Come have a look at some hanbok accessories.

Now that I'm in the capital,

I see that the market at Songdo was no different than the non-chartered markets in the alleyways.

They even say that in the blink of an eye, your nose can be cut off. So stay alert! (Lee So Jung)

Yes ma'am.

Have your pick.

Are you still up to that?

It can't be helped! I need to make a living.

Then come work under me.

You know, my character isn't suited for working under someone. I apologize.

That. Go give it back.

- Is it someone you know? - No.

Then why?

She's pretty!

If I were to put this precious thing back, what would I eat?

If you, Hyung, disrupt my business in this way, it puts me in quite the bind.

Hurry, yeah? Give it back.

- What's wrong? - My money pouch is missing.

What! Please look more carefully.

It's gone.

Really in a blink of an eye they did cut off your nose!

Miss, I think you dropped this.

Miss, how much was in here?

You're accusing me as a thief?

Not at all. Thank you.

- I'm the one who found it for you. - Thank you.

- I could've taken it, you know! - Thank you.

This is too bad. I can't just let it be.

You're staring at her totally dumbfounded.

- Who is she? - I brought her from Songdo. (Hwang Gyo Ha)

I spent a lot of money to bring her here. What do you think?

So why did you want to see me?

Oh. Bring your head merchant to Sosoroo tonight.

Why?

There's someone who wants to meet him.

Who is that?

A translator called Lee Jeong Gook.

Why does he want to meet my head merchant?

I'm not sure about that either.

He is big customer for us at Sosoroo, so you have to bring him.

He is here.

I'm Lee Jeong Gook.

I'm Gong Jae Myung

For what reason did you want to see me?

It wasn't I who wanted to meet you, but him.

He came with the Ming envoy and is

the chief eunuch.

Jae Myung!

Don't you recognize me?

I'm Oh Ja Hyun!

Young Master!

Yes, Jae Myung!

Is it really you? Young Master...

I would've never thought you were still alive...

Jae Myung!

Young Master...

Miss Songdo!

Who are you?

Me? Ask any one of the gisaengs in Sosoroo

who is the most handsome thug in the capital and what is his name.

Then you'll know my name straight away.

I was looking forward to life in the capital.

If you're the most handsome, I'm disappointed.

In Songdo, there are so many men who rate similarly in appearance to you, that they're overflowing.

What? Overflowing?

Head Merchant, how did you get to know a Ming envoy?

If I were to say, it would be a long story.

He was the young master I used to serve when I was young.

If he's a Joseon person, how did he become the Chief Eunuch of Ming?

Long ago during the time of Kim-Myo-Sa-Hwa, during those bloody times. (1519 the purging of Jo Gwang Jo, et. al. along with emerging Confucian Scholars by their political enemies)

Young Master's father was cornered as a traitor, and died.

Young Master himself was about to be sold as a government slave.

After fleeing to Ming,

he rose through the ranks to the position of the Chief Eunuch.

With the sole motivation of revenge,

he gave up becoming a man, to be successful.

At that time... While attempting to help the young master escape,

my mother and father lost their lives.

Then, that elder coming to see you

was to meet the man that saved his life.

Savior my foot. I was young and didn't do anything to help him.

- This is a chance given from the heavens. - What are you talking about?

The golden opportunity to be able to face Jung Nan Jung.

This fellow is a subordinate that I keep under me.

He says there is something he must tell you

I go by Yoon Tae Won.

So, what is it that you wanted to tell me?

When Chief Eunuch elder returns to Ming,

allow our company accompany you

and trade with Ming.

If so, that would be a tremendous help to the Head Merchant.

Would that be possible?

Yes, although according to Joseon law, trading with Ming (Lee Jeong Gook)

is tightly restricted.

But if Head Eunuch is determined,

it's possible.

If I can repay some of my debt to you by at least doing that,

I'll do that.

Thank you.

Thank you, Young Master.

Police Bureau

Work hard!

Hello...

What? Why did she come again? Geez...

Sir!

Sir, hello.

I want to see a beautiful talented girl like you become Damo but... (Yang Dong Gu)

I don't have power to make that happen.

No matter what you do, it can't be helped.

I didn't come to meet you.

Then why did you come?

Oh, there he is. Sir!

Why are you here? I told you that I was going to see you at Jeonokseo.

Because there was no need to wait three more days.

I'll... do it.

Since there are too many people here. First let's get out of here.

What should I do now?

Do I have to quite my job at Jeonokseo?

Just as I am the supervisor at the Police Bureau,

keep working as a Jeonokseo Damo.

If there is a job you need to do

I will take care of setting up an identity.

I am going to tell you again,

for a secret intelligence agent, from the moment his or her identity is revealed,

there is no need or reason for them to exist.

Always watch what you say.

Yes sir.

From now on you will receive training to become a secret intelligence agent.

The training can be life threatening.

Many people were unable to endure and failed.

You can quit if you're not confident.

No, I'll do it.

Take her with you.

Follow me.

Yes sir.

Tae Won will be the head of the company this time.

Do Chi will assist Tae Won in setting up the company.

I mean... Y-Yes.

Here. It's the money that you need to buy goods.

It's 5,000 nyang.

- 5,000 nyang?! - 5,000 nyang?!

Yes... It's everything I have.

Everything I saved up working myself to the bone as a thug and small time seller for the past 20 years.

In other words, regarding this transaction,

I put my past and my whole life on the line.

Do you get what I'm saying?

Yes sir. I will be try my best so there won't be any mistake.

Go on and get prepared.

Yes sir.

- Hyungnim, aren't you being too much? - About what?

This important work that you put your life up for.

How can you not discuss a single word with me and make a decision by yourself?

O-O-On top of that, that Tae Won!

What do you see in him that you put everything on the line?!

Something unexpected happened to me too,

so I didn't have time to tell you. I'm sorry.

But you know, there are those things in life.

You want to give it a try with no questions asked.

This feels exactly like that.

It's an opportunity that can completely change my life.

Hey! What happened to you?

It's just the way you've seen it, Hyung.

Hey, aren't you getting too ahead of yourself?

You picking a fight with Jung Nan Jung last time, too.

I'm feeling anxious.

It might look unstable in your eyes, but I have planned it out meticulously.

Since for a guy like me to have my revenge on a person like Jung Nan Jung,

I know how dangerous and risky it could be.

I'm being careful, so don't worry too much.

Why don't you just tell the Head Merchant everything?

Why you need to have your revenge on Jung Nan Jung?

It's not time yet.

If I am able to be successful with this opportunity,

then I will tell him. So don't give anything away, Hyung.

We have to prepare goods to trade with Ming within the next five days,

so it'll be really busy.

So let's start.

Hey, hey, Tae Won! Wait for me! Hey!

Did you call for me?

Do you know that there is a Ming envoy at the Mohwa Pavilion? (Yoon Won Hyung)

Yes, Your Excellency. I believe he's Oh Jang Hyeon, a person from Joseon.

You place careful surveillance on Oh Jang Hyeon and

you must thoroughly track those who seek to meet him.

Who are the people who would try to meet Oh Jang Hyeon?

They seek to defame His Majesty the King and Her Highness the Queen Dowager, for impure political reasons.

When you find them, you must capture them alive,

and determine their motives. Understand?

Yes, Lord.

Mohwa Pavilion - where Ming envoys are met

If there is anyone who attempts to contact the chief eunuch, they must be captured alive.

Joong Man you take the outer perimeter. Se Jeong, the middle gate.

I will take the main building.

Mohwa Pavilion

Who are you? Identify yourself.

What is it?

It is a letter for His Majesty the Emperor,

regarding why the former emperor Great King Injon

passed away just eight months after beginning his rule, as well as the

the abysmal acts committed by Yoon Won Hyung and Queen Dowager to kill their political opponents.

The entire situation is written in that letter.

Se Jeong.

Sir...

There was an intruder. Se Jeong who oversaw the middle gate was killed.

Stop.

Hurry and tell what the contents of the letter that you delivered to the chief eunuch were.

If you're curious,

ask the Chief Eunuch yourself.

There will be no way you'll hear it from my mouth.

Don't waste time needlessly.

Quickly kill me.

Dying well. You'll certainly be killed.

If I am unable to procure the answer that I seek, right now,

you will have to continue to endure this torturous questioning.

Have you by chance heard of a secret intelligence agent?

I am a secret intelligence agent.

We are experts in torturous questioning.

From now on, you

you will experience for yourself what a terrible existence it is to live and not die.

I can guarantee

that you won't be able to last a day.

I will ask you again.

What are the contents of the letter you delivered to the chief eunuch?

Kill me.

Hurry.

- Continue. - Yes

You pathetic...

I told you that there will be attempts to contact him. You weren't able to block that!

Forgive me, My Lord.

His identity, as well as

what he tried to deliver to the chief eunuch. Have you found that out yet?

Yes.

One of the people who was beheaded due to the the Yangjae Incident, (Yangjae Station Treatise Incident: 1547 Yoon Won Hyung + Co. wrote a false notice to defame themselves and remove political opponents: Yoon Im + Co)

was Yoon Seok Joo. His name is Yoon Seok Ho (These two characters share the same character, meaning they are at the very least from the same clan.)

What was it that he gave to Chief Eunuch?

I regretfully report this, but

the whole secret behind the death of the former king

and the entirety of Yangjae Station Treatise incident.

Your Highness, if the letter given to Oh Jang Hyeon

was to be delivered to the Ming Emperor, wouldn't this be a huge problem?

That must be prevented

No matter the means, we need to stop it.

However the letter is already in Oh Jang Hyeon's possession. How can we prevent it?

He must be killed.

Even if we must kill him. This must be stopped.

Your Highness, Gi Choon Soo, Captain of the Royal Army is here.

- Let him in. - Yes.

What brings you here?

The chief eunuch from Ming, who's staying at Mowha Pavilion, is said to be returning.

What do you mean?

There are still five more days left according to scheduled itinerary.

That what I thought as well, but we just received notice.

Oh, Your Highness. What should we do about this?

You're quite strange too. What's the use of learning business?

I am sick of being cooped up inside and doing embroidery

What did your mother say?

Mother completely gave up on me. She told me to do as I please. (Yoon Shin Hye)

Business is naturally a lowly thing.

They say money is the dirtiest thing in the world.

Since you have to earn that dirty thing, it can't be anything but low and difficult.

Will you bear that?

Whatever Aunt tells me to do, I'll do it all.

Not Aunt, but Head Merchant.

Yes, Head Merchant.

Oh.

Did you buy hemp and ramie?

I couldn't.

Why?

That fellow called Gong Jae Myung

completely bought out every bit of hemp and linen available in the chartered market in anticipation that there will be a huge increase in price.

What? Gong Jae Myung's merchnat is on par with the non-chartered merchants.

What did he say he was going to do with such a large quantity of goods?

I don't know what they are scheming either.

Hey, Tae Won.

I purchased the entire stock of ramie cloth, hemp, and even tiger furs and otter skins.

- There was just one item I wasn't able to buy. - What was it?

Ginseng. There is no way for me to get it.

Ginseng is the most important item that we need to take to Ming. If you're not able to get it

then it'll be hard to make a large sum of money.

Then what can I do? We don't even have much time left.

Are your preparations to go to Ming going well?

Well, so-so.

I need to ask another favor of you.

What is it?

Please let me meet the young lady who you brought from Songdo.

Why?

Did something happen?

It's urgent. I need to find out about something.

Is that so?

You're more pathetic than you look

Me? Why would you say such a thing?

It's difficult if you act rashly like this in order to earn a person's heart.

Do you think I am trying to win your heart?

If that's not so, and we only passed by each other,

then what is the reason you asked to meet me, going as far as asking the Head Courtesan.

I have an urgent matter to attend to. So first, I must ask you a question that needs to be asked.

By any chance, do you know any merchant from Songdo (Joseon Dynasty name for Kaesŏng)that trades large quantities of ginseng?

The wealthiest people in Songdo are primarily ginseng traders. So of course I know them.

That's what I figured. I need to buy ginseng urgently. Would you be able to introduce them to me?

If I put you in contact with them, what can you do for me then?

I will try to win your heart

so that if I need to ask a favor in the future, you won't bother about putting conditions on the request.

How was she?

She's suspiciously good, almost as if she got training someplace else.

I think it will be okay if we give her her qualification mission.

Then forget rest of her training. Just give her the last phase of her training.

Understood, Sir.

It's assassination.

I already declined.

So I have nothing more to say to you. Go back now.

It's the Queen Dowager.

It seems no one can escape from time.

My memories I have of you are of your younger self.

So seeing you like this again...

makes my heart ache.

After I learned that it was Your Highness who kept me alive...

I resented you a lot.

For the past twenty years, I was locked up in this pitiful prison,

and had my miserable life prolonged.

Was the crime I committed towards Your Highness that big of an offense?

The fact that I am alive to this day, is a hellish punishment for me.

Endure it. I couldn't give the order for your execution with my own lips.

I'm sorry.

For what reason are you here today?

My reason was already delivered to you through the Captain of the Royal Guards.

Forgive me, but I cannot do that.

This is a great and important task that the fate of this land depends upon.

Please accept it.

Trading with China?

It's already hard enough for me to do any trading with China, so what trading do they think they can accomplish with them?

I heard that Gong Jae Myung has a long history with the Chinese envoy.

As expected, he wasn't a man who should have been left alone.

If we don't do anything to him right now, he will eventually get in your way.

This is the food that will be given to Our Lord, so why do you keep eating from it?

I'm checking for poision, okay?

Excuse me?

You don't know about poison checking?

In the royal palace's food court, there is a poison checker that eats the food first to check for poison.

There seems to be more food that's been prepared for Our Lord than the King's royal food...

So of course I'll need to check it for poison.

Aigoo, look at you talking nonsense again.

But what is this? It's so delicious!

- Chicken penis. - What?

It's the penis of a rooster.

This is so good for giving sexual energy for a man, that Our Lord really loves this food!

You've been coming home late recently, and your skin has a pallor that doesn't look good.

It's because of that damned Chinese envoy who is causing a lot of troublesome problems.

So that's why I have a favor I would like to ask of you.

What is it?

There is a man named Gong Jae Myung, who is a leader of some barbaric men.

And he also leads a small merchant group, and apparently when the Chinese envoy is returning back home,

he is planning to accompany him back home.

He must have a long history with that Chinese envoy.

And so, if he starts to trade with the Chinese, then it will put me in a difficult position.

So, please take care of that man, Gong Jae Myung.

Did you even hear what I asked?

Leave him be.

- Why? - Because those bastards will go bankrupt pretty soon.

Go bankrupt? If he starts trading with the Chinese, then he will gain a lot of profit.

It's because that Chinese envoy and Gong Jae Myung

will die before they even make it back to China.

If the Chinese envoy dies, then what trading can Gong Jae Myung's merchant group even do?

They'll go bankrupt soon, so don't worry about it.

My Lord!

Since your skills are already good enough, it's been decided that giving you further training would be useless.

Now, you will be given the last phase of your training.

Your last phase of your training is, live action battle.

This will be considered your qualification mission, and if you can accomplish that mission...

Then you can become a secret intellegence agent.

What is my qualification mission that I must accomplish?

That's the house of the former Police Bureau Violent Crimes Division Leader, Yoon Tae Gyoo.

We have evidence and proof that Yoon Tae Gyoo is conspiring against the King.

Your mission is to infiltrate Yoon Tae Gyoo's house, and to kill him.

If he truly is conspiring against the King, then shouldn't the Royal Investigation Bureau take care of this matter?

After the present King succeeded the throne, there was a notebook that talked about the citizens who conspired against the King.

If the Royal Investigation Bureau takes charge in another conspiracy case, then this land will fall into chaos.

So it's the higher up's decision to take care of this as secretly as possible.

You don't think you can do it? If you can't, then you can just give up on becoming a secret intellegience agent.

I can do it.

Yoon Tae Gyoo is skilled in martial artist, and also has body guards in his house.

This will not be an easy mission, so prepare yourself well.

Come quickly! It's an assassin! An assassin!

Here. Eat well.

Lee Bong San.

Y-Yes?

Could you call over Captain Gi Cheon Soo from the Royal Guard?

Find out about this wench's identity. Who sent you?

Talk. What is your identity?!

Let's see how long you can endure this.

Start it.

Were you looking for me?

Your proposal. I'll accept it.

You made a wise decision. I'll go and tell the Queen Dowager immediately about this.

Tell me. Hurry and tell me your identity!

She fainted, Sir.

Sir!

You've passed your last part of your training.

Now you... are a secret intellegince agent.

♪ My memories of you. I wonder if I can erase you from them ♪

♪ I hold my breath again and start to cry once more ♪

♪ Whenever I think of you, my heart feels like it stopped beating ♪

The Flower In Prison ~Preview~

This is a matter of business that must never fail.

The only person that I trust is that person.

There is something you must secretly take care of.

Do not forget that this an important duty that His Highness' life depends on.

You've passed the last part of the training. You are now a secret intellegence agent.

What is the thing that I must do?

Hey kiddo! Nice to meet you!

If anything gets tiring and hard along the way, feel free to tell me any time.

Don't get sick or hurt anywhere, okay?

This is a death that we must ignore!

Just why did you choose such a reckless decision?

I know I can do it. I wanted to fulfill my wish.

Who the hell are you?
