ALL CHARACTERS, LOCATIONS, ORGANIZATIONS, AND INCIDENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

Hey.

Where are you going?

Darn, it is so hard to make a living nowadays.

Come with me.

What happened now? Did you cause trouble again?

I need you to hurry and place the needles.

The needles? What?

Where did you run off to?

Hurry. We are about to lose her.

Place a needle between her eyebrows.

You are all talk.

Shut it if you are not going to do it yourself.

Who is she?

She is this family's daughter-in-law. Please help her.

Will my lady be all right?

-Go and get the madam. -What?

She and I need to talk about this lady's treatment.

We need to discuss which medicine to use,

and how much she can afford for the treatment.

Yes, sir.

She is the woman you rescued from the lake, is she not?

The one who ran away.

How is my daughter-in-law?

She will live.

But we must use some medicine to make sure the injury does not worsen.

Oh my goodness, Eun-woo.

Do you want to follow your dead husband so badly?

You must move on from the dead.

Forget about my medicine.

Just do your best with her treatment.

I will pay handsomely.

Of course, we will use only the best herbs to brew a tonic for the lady.

All right, please make sure that she recovers.

Yes, madam.

-Bring what has been prepared. -Yes, madam.

How kind of her.

The madam gave you this to eat back at the infirmary.

And what is this?

It is a side dish made with ramps.

Please try some, for it is this household's specialty.

Ramps?

Hold it steady.

It might leak.

What a great day.

Stop being nosy about other people's business.

You cannot even take care of yourself.

What do you mean?

What I am saying is, you need to stop looking so glum.

All you have as a physician is your pretty face.

You cannot go around patients looking so depressed.

I do not treat patients with my face.

You are an idiot who cannot place needles.

So you might as well use your face.

What?

Want to try placing one?

Just listen to what the patients have to say.

Try to cheer up those who are furious too.

That will be your duty from now on.

Hey, you idiot.

You just thought that I am a rambling alcoholic,

did you not?

You think nothing will be of use since you cannot use your needles, right?

Just wait and see.

A patient's life might depend on you doing as I say.

How nice.

A rope does not have to be up in the sky.

A rope does not always have to be above everybody else.

I can hold that for you.

What are you doing? This is mine.

What?

No, I am not trying to steal it.

I am just trying to help, all right?

You know, I am really great at doing the laundry.

-You wild boar. -What?

Go away before I tell Poong about what you did.

Poong? What do you mean?

Who is Poong?

You do not know who Poong is?

He is so handsome.

Poong!

-Welcome back. -Hey there.

Poong!

Poong, you must be exhausted.

Poong? You were referring to him?

Yes, he is Poong.

What has gotten into him now?

My dad probably cussed him out again.

Dad, were you born with a rag in your mouth?

Why are you always cursing at people?

How uncivilized of you.

I am also disappointed in you.

Stop it with the nonsense, all of you.

Just focus on preparing lunch.

When will Nam-hae be coming back?

At this rate, we will starve to death before she comes.

Goodness gracious.

You will probably save a lot of people,

so please live, all right?

Did you do this on purpose?

How dare you make a scene while the physicians were here?

Do you want everybody to think that I am bullying a poor widow?

No, madam. That is not true.

Take her away and give her a good beating,

and lock Eun-woo in the storehouse.

Remove all sharp objects so she cannot do anything stupid.

No, madam.

My lady will die if you lock her in there again.

Forgive me, madam.

What are you waiting for?

Yes, madam.

No, madam! No!

I will go to the storehouse. Please spare her.

Eun-woo.

It all depends on how well you do.

If you keep doing this,

then people will say that you are being too harsh to Eun-woo.

Who on earth would say that?

Just ask anybody.

My daughter-in-law who made me lose my son

is embarrassing the entire family too.

Even if I told her to kill herself, it would not be enough.

Mother, you still have me.

I am simply disappointed

that you failed the exam yet again.

I am sorry, Mother. I should have done better.

Please do not say that.

It is not that easy to become a government official.

I am sorry for what you went through because of me.

Not at all. You are locked in here too.

Is she going to check if I emptied the plates again?

Yes, my lady.

Perhaps she does not truly despise you,

since she gives you food so that you do not starve.

Eun-woo.

Please drink this so you can live.

You need to eat well if you want to get better.

I do not have anything to eat.

I am sick of eating tree bark now.

Do not starve for a month if you are sick.

Why did you not tell me about it? Is your mouth for decoration?

Were you going to tell me after dying?

Hey, granny. Give Choong-sam some more pearl barley.

I cannot even pay for the treatment.

Are you not used to this by now? I am done talking. Go.

Come over here.

Let us go.

-Please treat me. -Sir.

-Please help me. -Mr. Gye.

Please take a look…

Young Master.

So…

You might want to step outside for a little bit.

Mr. Gye says that he will extend your contract and call the officers.

He is kicking up such a fuss.

In Hanyang, you went crazy whenever you saw a patient.

You always caused a scene by placing your needles

wherever you wanted, like on a woman's chest.

So why are you being so stubborn about not treating any patients?

-My head hurts! -Please, sir.

What do you think you are doing?

Put me down.

What are you…

Your pulse feels fine. Try eating some warm food--

Dad, you might want to see this.

INTERNAL INJURY, WOMEN

EXTERNAL INJURY, CHILDREN

Sir, please help me.

-Let me feel your pulse. -Thank you.

May I take a look?

Next.

I have a stomachache.

MALE, 62 YEARS OLD…

This is so convenient.

He was being so stupid, going back and forth like that.

What? Stupid?

That is what Ip-boon said.

-It is easier to package the medicine now. -Jang-goon, you little…

You know, you have been insulting me for a while now.

I mean, come on. Physicians from Hanyang are just better.

He is handsome and skilled too.

His skin is practically glowing.

Hey, you idiot.

How are the patients supposed to read the Chinese characters?

Stop being so pretentious.

Dad, stop yelling at Mr. Yoo.

We can just do this.

EXTERNAL INJURY

INTERNAL INJURY

EXTERNAL INJURY

Ip-boon, you have great drawing skills.

She cannot be useless at everything she does.

INTERNAL INJURY

My back.

This is a medical record with every patient's symptoms and treatments.

It will be easier if we know a patient's medical history beforehand.

FEMALE, 62 YEARS OLD

And this is how much I made by working today.

It will not take me that long to make ten nyangs.

You need to factor in your living costs as well.

You know how much that one eats, right?

Then I shall add the patient visit fee from today.

Yes, you can do that all you want.

You will never make up for how much he eats.

The barbarians are invading!

The barbarians are invading!

The barbarians are invading!

The barbarians are invading!

Darn it.

Granny!

Granny!

The barbarians are invading!

The barbarians are invading!

The barbarians. They are invading!

The barbarians are invading. The barbarians…

The barbarians…

The barbarians are…

You could hurt yourself.

The barbarians are…

-She has lost it. -My goodness.

Poong.

Hurry. You need to run.

The barbarians will come and catch you.

The barbarians returned to their homeland in the year of the red cow.

No.

Evil always comes back.

I am scared.

Right, let us go back and take a look at your hand.

Poong.

Your hands.

That was exhausting.

Come on, get on my back.

-No. -What?

I am going with Poong.

My goodness.

Please get on my back.

I told you not to go anywhere.

I told you I will poke you with a huge needle if you did that again.

She has dementia. Do not threaten her.

Then why not run from barbarians with her every night?

That man is a prick.

Let me see your hand.

Poong, can you use a needle on me?

I can no longer

use my needles.

Why not? You are a physician.

Come on, put a needle right here.

You want me to place a needle there?

Does it hurt there?

Yes, it hurts right here.

It does not seem to be heart pain.

HEART PAIN: MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

I just feel bad, Poong.

What do you feel bad about?

I feel bad

because I came back

alive, my son.

The lady from Sari-gol did not finish this because it was too bitter.

It would be a waste to throw it away.

That was brewed with poria cocos, right?

It is for people like Granny who speak of strange things.

You put a lot of ginseng in there as well.

But the tonic given to the Sari-gol lady was made from orange peels.

Stop jumping to conclusions.

You are too dumb to tell

what kind of tonic this is by what it smells like.

Are you Dae Jang-geum?

-I was the top of my class-- -Whatever.

You can throw it out for all I care. Throw it out.

It is the duty of a true nobleman to be frugal and generous.

Therefore, one must wear simple clothing.

Eat.

Mr. Gye is determined to make you work for one more day,

so you cannot make a mistake today.

-What? -Look.

Did you wash your face while reading again?

Just look at this.

Judging by how the water is clean, you did not wash your face well.

Young Master, you really do not have much right now.

Your family is gone and you are poor.

You were fired from the Royal Infirmary and you cannot use needles.

But…

at least you still have your handsome face.

That is you must take good care of it before you lose it too.

Stop it. That is enough.

What? Hey!

I could be using that time to read books.

-Oh, my goodness. -My gosh.

-He is so handsome. -Look at him!

-He looks amazing. -So handsome.

-How is he so good-looking? -Goodness.

My goodness!

-Oh, my gosh! -My heart!

You are feeling pain in your stomach and heart.

How did you know?

It is abdominal discomfort.

Your sides are uncomfortable,

and your throat feels clogged. So you cannot eat well.

Yes, that is right.

Have you been vomiting stomach acid? Or does it hurt?

Well…

I see. It is heartburn.

It must have been hard.

How on earth did you know?

The heartburn has been bothering me so much.

Then,

you will need licorice, not atractylodes.

It will be a bit bitter.

But…

why is your pulse beating so fast?

I do not think it is tachycardia.

TACHYCARDIA: AN ABNORMALLY FAST HEARTBEAT

Are you feeling pain anywhere else?

No, sir.

His face is the perfect medicine.

-You are right. -Hey!

None of the patients who have seen my young master's face have died yet.

-That is not what I-- -He is a perfect physician.

No, that is not what I meant.

His face is just so perfect…

Never mind.

-Wait-- -No, I do not!

What are you talking about? I was going to ask about dinner.

Why are you asking about dinner when you just ate lunch?

-You glutton. -Hey, that is mean.

There is a patient here!

What happened?

My lady…

Something is wrong with her.

She was fine just a moment ago.

What are you waiting for? Bring her in.

What happened?

She was locked in the storehouse, so I went to check on her, and…

She is a noblewoman. Why would she be locked in?

The madam…

Please save poor Lady Eun-woo.

I need mung bean and black bean water.

She will have to drink it for a while, so brew a lot.

All right.

What? You think she was poisoned?

Yes, I think so.

I am not yet sure what kind of poison did this.

First she almost drowned, and now she has been poisoned?

Did she drink or eat anything today?

The white rice porridge that I made,

and the tonic that you prescribed.

There is no way that she was poisoned. She was locked in there the entire time.

Where is Eun-woo?

How dare you take her away?

There she is.

Take her back home immediately.

Yes, madam.

You cannot go in without my young master's permission.

Who are you?

You will hurt yourself.

Do not worry about it.

There is nothing wrong.

She almost drowned, cut herself, and was poisoned.

If she leaves right now, she will die.

Well,

I cannot let a noblewoman

lie in a place like this.

You should be the ones coming to her.

I shall take her home.

She could die if she leaves. I cannot allow you to take her.

Who do you think you are?

He is a physician, of course.

When one is unconscious, you must be careful with the needles.

I must perform moxibustion about a hundred times

between her face and chest for a chance of survival.

That will not be possible at your house.

She is part of my family now.

Even if she dies, she belongs to us.

What are you waiting for? Take her.

Yes, madam.

You evil wench!

My goodness.

Oh, my.

Oh, my.

How dare you touch me with your dirty hands?

Calm down.

You should return to your house for today.

I must find out what happened to Lady Eun-woo.

Do not think that this is over.

I will make sure that you are all punished

for disrespecting a noblewoman.

Let us go to the government officials.

Stop right there!

There are three things that you must never mess with before I die,

but I guess you did not know.

I shall say it one more time, so listen closely.

If you mess with my physicians, my patients, or my family,

then you shall face my wrath.

Do you understand?

If a patient enters Gyesu Infirmary, nobody can take them away

until they have fully recovered.

Not even the King could change my mind.

Only me, Gye Ji-han,

and that young physician right over there

can take in a patient or let them leave.

Do you really want to take this to the government officials?

Madam! It was you!

My goodness.

My goodness.

We should go there right away…

If we go all the way to the government office to argue,

then the entire village will hear about it.

I am so sorry.

The incident with your hair was quite funny.

What should I do?

Should I call Chil-sung from the government office?

Never mind.

I do not want any unwanted rumors from this.

Let us go.

Take care, madam.

Drink the tonic. You will feel better.

At the very least, eat something.

Lady Eun-woo was poisoned.

That means she ingested poison.

I think somebody might have given it to her.

Watch your tongue.

Who would dare to poison her in my house?

May I take a look at the tonic that Lady Eun-woo drank?

Mr. Gye said to give her the medication consistently

so her condition would not worsen.

I gave it to her today as well.

Allow me to take a look then.

Did you not use this pot

to brew the tonic for Lady Eun-woo?

Yes, madam.

And is this bowl the one you used to give her the tonic?

Yes, sir. I did not get to wash it because Lady Eun-woo collapsed.

So some of the tonic should be left in there.

Are you happy now?

Act like a proper physician.

Watch your tongue from now on.

I apologize, madam.

I spent so much money and energy

brewing this tonic for my widowed daughter-in-law,

and now you think I have poisoned her.

How ridiculous.

I think you should go back now.

Please take good care of Eun-woo.

Mother.

The madam is not in a good mood

because the young master failed his exam again.

Please be understanding.

After I gave her an antidote to clear her bloodstream,

her pulse returned to normal.

She has definitely been poisoned, but nobody gave it to her.

What is going on here?

I am sorry.

I am so sorry. I will never do it again.

I am sorry.

It is fine.

It is because Lady Eun-woo is sick, that is all.

Would you mind bringing me a new one?

What are you doing? We are all trying to save you here.

I never asked you to.

Why do you keep trying to save me?

Then why did you save me back on the cliff?

You must remember who I am.

No, I do not.

Goodness, somebody looks unhappy.

What? Did Lady Eun-woo reject you again?

It is cold outside.

Go inside if you are done drinking.

There is a right time for everything.

You think you can solve anything, do you not?

Always blabbering about being from the Royal Infirmary.

Just do not do anything for now.

You must let go of everything to gain anything.

So just wait.

Give her some time, and she will open up about herself.

I meant…

Dad.

Gosh!

Have you been drinking again?

Stop babbling in front of this refined, sober young man and get inside!

What? "Refined"?

This guy? Unbelievable.

I have never seen an idiot like him.

He is the biggest idiot ever, all right?

GYESU INFIRMARY

Eun-woo.

Eun-woo.

Eun-woo.

-Eun-woo. -Eun-woo.

Oh, dear. Eun-woo.

Magistrate Seo, what brings you here?

Is she your daughter?

Yes, she is.

What exactly is wrong with Eun-woo?

A number of things. She drowned--

I just had a bad cold.

Right, Mr. Yoo?

She almost died--

She will have to undergo some careful treatment,

but you do not need to worry, madam.

Do not lie to me. I know it was your mother-in-law.

I am not sending her back there. She is going to stay with me.

What?

Mr. Gye, will you make a house call?

Of course I will. Anything for your daughter.

Mr. Yoo here was in the Royal Infirmary.

He will visit her every three days and treat her.

I will pay you even more than usual.

Please make sure that she gets better.

You must work very hard to make sure that Lady Eun-woo recovers.

Go to the house every morning and treat her.

Eun-woo belongs to another family now.

Can you not see the state she is in? We are not sending her anywhere.

Even a year ago,

you were so anxious to see her get married.

Now she has become a widow.

That evil woman must have been so awful to her.

Still, the law--

Will you finally be satisfied when she gets sick

or collapses again back there?

I will…

go back to my mother-in-law's house.

Wake up.

Mr. Yoo.

Yes.

-Mr. Gye. -Right.

Consume hot food and beverages.

Take care.

That little…

What is he doing there?

Move!

Beom-sik, go up there.

Yes, Mr. Gye.

Granny, where are you going?

I am too busy for this.

Go after her since you are not doing anything.

Hey, idiot.

Remember what I said yesterday? Do not do anything for now.

Just wait.

Let her do whatever she wants,

and watch carefully.

Go on, quickly.

Poong.

Poong.

Poong.

A rabbit!

It is a rabbit.

Flowers…

Who are you?

I could ask you the same thing.

What are you doing in front of my house?

Is your name Poong, by any chance?

Is your mother…

She passed away a long time ago.

I am sorry.

This one is a pain reliever.

Wild ginseng. It gives you energy.

No matter which way I look at it,

they all look the same to me.

No! You cannot mix them up!

Hey, do not bully the kid.

Who? Me?

Yes, you are…

Young Master.

Look at how good Jang-goon is at separating these.

Even the physicians at the palace make mistakes while doing this.

Impressive, Jang-goon.

Right?

This is hard for you too, right?

Hey, idiot.

That wild ginseng is much more expensive than the other one.

Do not dare mix them up.

If you do, I will add it to your debt.

He will not shut up about the debt.

Poong!

Poong.

Poong, where were you?

I was meeting my friends.

But your friends must be unhappy with you.

Why would Poong's friends be unhappy with him?

Because I came back alive.

She passed away a long time ago.

I am sorry, Poong.

You must hate me, Poong.

You must be embarrassed by me.

Not at all.

I bet everyone would have preferred if I had not returned.

I bet they would have been happier.

Same thing with your girlfriend.

Make sure your girlfriend does not run away.

Why?

Just why?

Why do you keep trying

to save me?

Why?

I will not let you die,

because I am a physician.

Let me heal you, Lady Eun-woo.

I am not a patient.

Just look at me. I am completely fine.

Do I look like a patient to you?

Then what is the name of my illness?

If you do not even know that, how are you planning on treating me?

Just,

just leave me alone!

Have you forgotten everything that you have said to me?

I do not know what you are talking about.

There are things that you can only see, hear, and feel

when you are alive.

You told me to stay alive,

that I must live.

That is what you said, did you not?

There are things that you can only see, hear,

and feel when you are alive.

Do not break yourself.

You are not someone who breaks people.

You save people, do you not?

Do not break yourself.

You cannot do that to yourself

after saving my life.

I…

I have nowhere to go now.

If I stay with my parents, then the law of this country will kill me.

But if I go to my mother-in-law's, then they will kill me instead.

This was the only place that I could think of.

It is not your fault, my lady.

I promise you

that it is not your fault.

You told me that I will save a lot of people.

Will you give me a chance to save you then?

I will find a reason for you to live.

Grandmother.

Hey.

You are here, Poong.

Please take care of Lady Eun-woo for tonight.

Sure. I am glad you are all right.

You cannot sleep?

Do you want me to ask Poong to place a needle on you?

Do you think that I am in pain too?

Where do you think it hurts?

It hurts right here, does it not?

That is why you need a needle right there.

If that bad woman comes back, I will make her go away.

So I hope you recover.

You are so pretty.

Your husband is so lucky.

Do you know

when I first saw my husband's face?

My son!

I knew nothing about him when I wed him.

The first and last time that I saw his face

was when he was lying in his coffin.

Then…

You have killed your husband.

My son is dead because of you.

There is a reason why they say a bad wife can ruin the entire family.

This is all because of you!

You never once mourned for his loss.

You cold-hearted brat.

You should have died instead.

You should have died instead, you brat!

Eun-woo, it all depends on how well you do.

You can hang yourself or slit your wrists,

but make sure that you die for sure next time.

Maybe I really should have died.

If I am more helpful to my family when I am dead,

then perhaps it will be better if I die.

Like you said,

Would a needle right here make me feel better?

Why is everyone blaming me?

That woman is ill too.

Not here.

In her head.

Looks like I owe you

-Gosh! -only two nyangs now.

Of course, since I am bringing you so many patients nowadays.

No, this is your wage.

Let us see.

Since Man-bok ate much more than anybody else.

You are saying that my debt will just increase as I keep working.

I am supposed to work here forever just because of a few nyangs?

That is basically a slave contract.

Hey, honestly speaking,

you cannot even use your needles.

Nobody else will hire you, the way you are right now.

Jeez.

But not a lot of places will let you treat patients

without using acupuncture,

especially when all you have is your face and words.

No other infirmary will accept an idiot physician like you.

Who knows?

If you stay here, you might become better

like that rope dancer.

Young Master, why do you look so unhappy again?

Did Mr. Gye say something weird to you again?

Just stop eating so much.

Are you eating rice cakes before breakfast?

Why is he taking it out on me?

Rice cake tastes the best before a meal.

Tomorrow is the day!

I am so excited.

What are you talking about?

Tomorrow night, there will be a Women's Market.

I bet there will be delicious food there.

But only women are allowed?

Why do not you eat other things?

Are you addicted to ramps?

Side dishes from a nobleman's family taste the best.

How do you put up with him? He eats like a cow.

Hey, that is perfect!

We will be the only ones here during the Women's Market, right?

Jang-goon, can you teach me how to tell those herbs apart?

I admired you doing that.

It is not that easy to learn.

What?

Moktong and banggi.

Korean angelica and gobon, banha and cheonnamseong.

HERBS THAT LOOK SIMILAR BUT ARE DIFFERENT

There are too many.

Come on. Teach me.

-No, I cannot have them getting mixed up. -I bet you can.

Gomchwi and kingcup, atractylodes and scopolia rhizome.

You might end up killing a patient. They will die.

They cannot get mixed up.

Yes. They cannot get mixed up.

So that is what happened.

You are working so hard by yourself.

You really need someone to help you.

Where is that young physician?

Did he run away already because he got scared?

No, that brat is trying to save a patient too.

Two patients, I guess.

How are you planning on harming Lady Eun-woo this time?

Are we talking about this again?

Are these not ramps?

I sent those to your infirmary some time ago.

Yes, you did.

You planned it out very carefully.

I cannot believe you sent the ramps to Gyesu Infirmary too.

You almost fooled me by giving me that delicious side dish.

Would you like to try this as well?

There was nothing wrong with Lady Eun-woo's tonic.

However, while eating alone in an outhouse,

ramps for her were switched with something else.

This is…

not Alpine broad-leaf allium. It is veratrum oxysepalum.

It looks like Alpine broad-leaf allium, which is used for the side dish.

However, it is a poisonous plant that can kill you.

Look.

In the past, hunters used to put this plant on their arrowheads

to hunt animals.

What a meticulous plan, madam.

What do you want from me?

Since you have not reported me already,

I am guessing you want something.

Let Lady Eun-woo go.

Just consider her a dead woman,

which is what you wanted.

Is that it?

I am guessing that you have grown rather fond of her--

By that,

I mean that I do not want you to even speak of her again.

I have collected the veratrum oxysepalum from her quarters.

I can report you to the government office when I want,

so you better be careful.

Is there a reason

why you are trying to threaten me with these foolish guesses?

What would I gain from killing my daughter-in-law?

You would.

You would gain something.

You are planning on bringing glory to your family.

What?

How would her death bring glory to my family?

If your widowed daughter-in-law kills herself,

you will get a virtuous widow's memorial gate from the government.

Your unworthy son will get a position as a government official. Am I wrong?

That is…

You will get a memorial gate if Lady Eun-woo kills herself.

But if you murder her, then forget about the memorial gate.

Your family will be destroyed.

Is that what you want?

All done.

All right, next.

Who is next?

A person who should not have lived.

Somebody who would have helped everyone by dying.

No, you cannot wear red makeup.

They will call you crazy.

We shall look elegant today.

-Here, say "woo." -"Woo."

You look so pretty, just like a new bride!

You look beautiful.

The girlfriend should go too.

Girlfriend? You are embarrassing me.

Go where? Am I going too?

We are going to look at the flowers. You should come too.

I am fine.

No, you need to come.

You are so thin.

I will get you some wild ginseng next time instead of berries.

Do not do this again. That is all that I have to say.

That physician told me to tell you in person.

Tell my mother to stop visiting me.

To us, she died in the last war.

We are getting by just fine without her.

Poong…

Do not ever

try to visit me again.

Please.

Just how much longer will you…

let other people's opinions define who you are?

Are you really going to abandon that hand

that you never could hold onto properly?

"Live as if you have already died."

"Even if they are alive, bury them in your heart."

Those are cowardly words from people

who did not manage to protect this country or its people.

She is still alive.

She is still here.

She is still breathing.

Did you not ever miss her?

Do you not have anything that you wanted to say to her?

Do you have any idea how many people look down on me

because I am the son of a Returning Lady?

I am sorry, Poong.

I will never become a government official now.

Why did you come back?

I wish you had just died instead.

Poong.

If you do not want berries and wild ginseng,

then take this.

I kept this with me

so that I could give it to you on your birthday.

I wanted to give you this because I have never been able

to buy you some new clothes.

And…

I wanted to give this to you when you went to school.

I wanted you to wear these at your coming of age ceremony.

Did you get wed yet, Poong?

I wonder if this will fit.

Did you…

prepare this every year?

Your mother

has never taken that bag off of her back.

How could you…

Every single year…

My baby.

Do not cry.

I am sorry.

It is all my fault, so do not cry.

No.

I knew it was not your fault,

but I was so harsh to you

because I am

such a terrible son.

Mother.

Mother, please forgive me.

No.

I am sorry that I am a Returning Lady.

So do not cry, Poong.

I am sorry, Mother.

You asked me why I keep trying to save you.

I think it is because I can see myself in you.

A year ago,

I thought I could do everything.

But I lost everything overnight

and almost killed myself.

However,

seeing Granny today made me realize something.

I need to stay alive and wait.

If I die now, I will be remembered as a disloyal subject to the king,

as well as a bad son, a bad friend,

and a cowardly physician.

Are you really all right

being remembered as you are right now?

Poong.

I look pretty, right?

Yes. You are prettier than any flower that I have ever seen.

I guess she considers Gyesu Infirmary her home,

son, and family.

Yes. I do not know why she wants to go back there

instead of her son's enormous house.

Poong.

Poong.

Poong.

From now on, I shall go by Poong.

Yoo Se-poong.

Poong.

It is just a name.

I would change my name a hundred times

if it meant that I could help somebody.

Poong.

Are you really not going, Lady Eun-woo?

You can just pack afterward.

Go right back home once you are done looking around.

I can pack by myself.

-Still. -Do as I say.

Hurry up. We are leaving.

Go.

I will be right back.

Are you in there?

Look over there.

Do all women act like that?

We do not all act like that.

Anyway, I do not know if we will be able to find Dan in this crowd.

Right.

If we do not have money, we will not be able to buy anything.

She is not one to forget bringing her money.

Is Lady Eun-woo not going?

She is going to pack.

Could I

borrow your money pouch?

Why?

Let us look for her.

FORTUNE-TELLER

My goodness. Since you are both so pretty,

I will lower the fortune-telling fee just for you.

Which one of you wants to go first?

Oh, dear.

Thank goodness that you are a woman.

If you were a man, you would have lost

both your job and your money this year.

What?

Next year, you will meet the love of your life

and live with him until the day you die.

Your husband will be very handsome.

My lady, you have a great future ahead of you.

My lady, what about this pendant?

It will look good on you.

Here is a hairpin.

This looks great on you.

Let us look at the next one.

It is delicious.

Here, let us try it too.

You want to go on the swing?

I do not really…

No, I want to go on the swing.

I have always wanted to try it.

When will I ever get to try it, if not today?

What are you doing?

You need to push me.

I cannot believe only women were allowed to do something this fun.

You know, you smiled a lot today.

You should smile more.

When you are not smiling, you look like you are angry.

Eun-woo.

Shin-woo.

Find a man named Yoo Se-yeop.

I need you to find somebody for me. Yoo Se-yeop.

He just needs a well-placed needle. How long will this take?

Move aside!

From now on, I am going to treat all of my patients,

even if I have to use every medical text that I know.

I heard that the Nine-Tailed Fox reappeared last night.

Please be careful.

There has been another murder.

Before I got married,

I helped the government office with autopsies.

Then you worked directly with the corpses…

Do you not think there was a motive?

Did you hear that?
