WEBVTT

00:00:57.930 --> 00:00:59.100
Royal Guard.

00:01:00.540 --> 00:01:02.840
- Yes, Your Majesty.
- Are you fond...

00:01:05.240 --> 00:01:08.310
of a woman's heart?

00:01:09.440 --> 00:01:11.980
- Pardon?
- Forget it.

00:01:13.880 --> 00:01:15.020
Your Majesty.

00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:17.450
A woman's heart.

00:01:21.220 --> 00:01:22.760
I am an expert at that.

00:01:23.490 --> 00:01:26.230
What do you want to know?
Please ask away.

00:01:27.100 --> 00:01:28.200
Well...

00:01:29.430 --> 00:01:30.700
A way to...

00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:34.340
be liked by a woman.

00:01:35.540 --> 00:01:39.540
Or how to...

00:01:45.210 --> 00:01:46.310
Nevermind.

00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:50.790
Your Majesty.

00:01:51.220 --> 00:01:54.490
I got married not too long ago.

00:01:55.860 --> 00:01:58.060
I followed around my wife
day and night...

00:01:58.360 --> 00:02:00.460
and asked her to marry me,

00:02:00.460 --> 00:02:02.160
but she would not give me an answer.

00:02:02.800 --> 00:02:07.440
If she did not like the idea of it,
she should have just said so.

00:02:07.440 --> 00:02:08.570
You are right.

00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:11.470
- So?
- At first,

00:02:11.740 --> 00:02:14.280
I thought looking cool
was the top priority.

00:02:14.640 --> 00:02:16.810
So in front of my wife,
I drew my sword...

00:02:16.810 --> 00:02:18.780
My apologies, Your Majesty.

00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:20.750
I drew my sword, wielded it,

00:02:20.750 --> 00:02:24.490
and also hit the bull's eye with arrows.

00:02:26.450 --> 00:02:30.730
But she got scared and ran away from me.

00:02:31.130 --> 00:02:33.660
Why would she? So what did you do?

00:02:33.760 --> 00:02:36.760
One day, I hurt my hand...

00:02:37.170 --> 00:02:39.770
- while training the soldiers.
- Yes, you did.

00:02:39.930 --> 00:02:42.700
I could not dare show
such ugly sight to my wife,

00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:45.870
so I started avoiding her.

00:02:46.010 --> 00:02:47.210
But suddenly,

00:02:47.540 --> 00:02:50.950
and I tell you suddenly,
she started showing interest in me.

00:02:51.980 --> 00:02:53.450
Once, she came up to me and asked,

00:02:54.420 --> 00:02:55.920
"Have you eaten yet?"

00:02:56.920 --> 00:03:01.390
I replied, "I have not
because of my hand."

00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:04.490
And so she started feeding me gukbap.

00:03:05.860 --> 00:03:09.300
And another time, she asked,
"Did you wash your face?"

00:03:10.530 --> 00:03:11.900
"My hand..."

00:03:12.530 --> 00:03:16.140
"Because of my hand, I could not,"
is what I told her.

00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:19.510
"Goodness, look how dirty you are,"

00:03:19.510 --> 00:03:22.940
is what she said as she
washed my face for me.

00:03:27.380 --> 00:03:28.980
Gosh.

00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:31.750
Do you get it, Your Majesty?

00:03:35.190 --> 00:03:37.690
What on earth...

00:03:37.690 --> 00:03:38.790
Your Majesty.

00:03:39.260 --> 00:03:43.300
In front of a woman,
you must pretend to be weak...

00:03:43.830 --> 00:03:45.230
and vulnerable.

00:03:45.670 --> 00:03:49.900
Stimulate her sympathy...

00:03:50.640 --> 00:03:53.010
and she will act kindly to you.

00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:55.240
Wait.

00:03:56.980 --> 00:03:58.750
- Pretend to be weak?
- Yes.

00:04:00.620 --> 00:04:03.080
- And vulnerable?
- Yes, Your Majesty.

00:04:04.550 --> 00:04:05.950
Is that true?

00:04:06.150 --> 00:04:08.060
I will put my life on it.

00:04:08.720 --> 00:04:10.630
- Pretend to be weak?
- Yes.

00:04:11.460 --> 00:04:12.630
And...

00:04:14.700 --> 00:04:15.900
Royal Guard.

00:04:22.940 --> 00:04:25.470
- They are rebels.
- Catch them alive.

00:04:26.270 --> 00:04:27.410
Understood, Your Majesty.

00:04:54.740 --> 00:04:55.840
Attack!

00:05:34.280 --> 00:05:35.710
(Episode 13)

00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:38.910
We had a mishap in the palace.

00:05:40.410 --> 00:05:43.880
The rebels attempted
to harm His Majesty.

00:05:44.050 --> 00:05:45.190
- A mishap?
- Rebels?

00:05:45.190 --> 00:05:47.490
Is His Majesty safe?

00:05:47.960 --> 00:05:50.660
Fortunately, he was saved from disaster.

00:05:53.090 --> 00:05:54.860
There is a search order.

00:05:55.200 --> 00:05:57.700
The rebels have not
escaped from the palace yet.

00:05:58.100 --> 00:06:01.000
Search the area in pairs.

00:06:01.100 --> 00:06:02.770
- Yes, my lady.
- Yes, my lady.

00:06:03.940 --> 00:06:05.610
Let us go together.

00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:07.340
Hurry up.

00:06:28.060 --> 00:06:30.100
The mishap that occurred today...

00:06:30.430 --> 00:06:32.730
has nothing to do with you, right?

00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:35.700
Why do you ask such an obvious question?

00:06:36.270 --> 00:06:40.440
If you do not trust me,
I will be disappointed.

00:06:45.850 --> 00:06:48.250
Did you hear that?

00:06:48.880 --> 00:06:52.190
What? I did not hear anything.

00:06:53.820 --> 00:06:56.520
Something moved over there.

00:06:58.460 --> 00:06:59.560
We should go back.

00:07:00.490 --> 00:07:02.000
We should take a look.

00:07:03.400 --> 00:07:04.600
Stop it.

00:07:11.940 --> 00:07:13.810
What if there really is a rebel?

00:07:13.810 --> 00:07:15.380
It is only the two of us.

00:07:16.080 --> 00:07:18.580
- We are searching for rebels...
- Hey.

00:07:18.850 --> 00:07:20.250
We are not soldiers.

00:07:20.250 --> 00:07:22.180
We should only pretend to find them.

00:07:22.350 --> 00:07:24.090
Or are you asking for death?

00:07:30.020 --> 00:07:31.230
See that?

00:07:31.660 --> 00:07:34.660
There is nothing here. We should go.

00:08:10.630 --> 00:08:11.870
Royal Guard.

00:08:13.630 --> 00:08:14.640
Yes, sir.

00:08:14.640 --> 00:08:16.100
Arrest the criminals.

00:08:17.100 --> 00:08:18.270
Yes, sir.

00:08:35.620 --> 00:08:36.760
Arrest them.

00:08:37.690 --> 00:08:38.790
Yes, sir.

00:08:55.580 --> 00:08:57.240
How dare you try to harm the King...

00:08:58.280 --> 00:09:00.650
as a court maid of the King's Palace.

00:09:04.590 --> 00:09:06.650
- Drag her.
- Yes.

00:09:07.420 --> 00:09:08.590
Drag her.

00:09:30.180 --> 00:09:33.380
Are you going to be okay?

00:09:33.810 --> 00:09:34.920
What do you mean?

00:09:35.020 --> 00:09:37.350
You lied about your background.

00:09:38.520 --> 00:09:41.560
Why does it say you are
the daughter of Queen Hong's butler?

00:09:41.860 --> 00:09:44.290
Your father was a military officer.

00:09:52.630 --> 00:09:55.270
My father passed away in 1762.

00:09:56.600 --> 00:09:59.340
Was he the Crown Prince's guard?

00:10:00.170 --> 00:10:02.410
Did he serve the late Crown Prince?

00:10:04.110 --> 00:10:06.610
The day the Crown Prince was
locked away in the rice chest,

00:10:06.810 --> 00:10:09.250
all of the late Crown Prince's
guards died.

00:10:11.350 --> 00:10:13.820
They suffered disgrace for treason...

00:10:13.820 --> 00:10:16.560
by leading the criminal
to the wrong path.

00:10:17.790 --> 00:10:19.990
My mother could not bear it.

00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:23.330
She soon followed my father.

00:10:24.500 --> 00:10:26.470
Is it okay to tell me?

00:10:26.570 --> 00:10:28.600
What if I tell the head court lady?

00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:30.800
Then you might lose your life.

00:10:30.800 --> 00:10:33.170
I doubt that.

00:10:33.170 --> 00:10:34.840
I know you.

00:10:36.480 --> 00:10:38.910
- Do you?
- Of course.

00:10:39.250 --> 00:10:41.150
You are Wol Hye who
used to play on the swings...

00:10:41.150 --> 00:10:43.150
and fly a kite with me
when we were young.

00:10:46.150 --> 00:10:48.160
We were worry free back then.

00:10:49.220 --> 00:10:50.390
I miss those days.

00:10:53.630 --> 00:10:56.230
Do you not want to go back to that time?

00:11:04.670 --> 00:11:07.610
Sounds good. I have made up my mind.

00:11:09.410 --> 00:11:10.580
On what?

00:11:13.250 --> 00:11:16.480
I may not be able to go back
to the time when I was innocent,

00:11:17.320 --> 00:11:20.920
but I will protect you and that memory.

00:11:48.650 --> 00:11:50.180
Wait here.

00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:12.970
Duk Im.

00:12:13.940 --> 00:12:15.210
Duk Im.

00:12:36.900 --> 00:12:38.870
Are you here to be interrogated?

00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:42.840
You look fine.

00:12:43.470 --> 00:12:47.510
I can tell that you are
loved by His Majesty.

00:12:48.610 --> 00:12:49.840
Wol Hye.

00:12:50.580 --> 00:12:52.880
Can you pull my hair back?

00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:55.650
I cannot see well.

00:13:13.230 --> 00:13:14.500
It is better.

00:13:15.470 --> 00:13:18.170
They treated me so roughly.

00:13:19.010 --> 00:13:22.610
You have committed a crime.
You deserve it.

00:13:25.450 --> 00:13:26.780
Were there rebels...

00:13:27.880 --> 00:13:29.920
in the bushes?

00:13:32.050 --> 00:13:35.320
Why did you save me?

00:13:38.030 --> 00:13:40.130
I just wanted to.

00:13:42.930 --> 00:13:47.000
What? Am I not allowed
to do something on my own?

00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:52.110
Am I not allowed to rescue
the girl who lived next door...

00:13:53.310 --> 00:13:55.210
when I was young?

00:13:57.710 --> 00:14:01.820
You are just an ordinary girl,

00:14:02.780 --> 00:14:04.890
but for some reason,
I can never hate you.

00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:07.590
Some people are like that.

00:14:09.890 --> 00:14:12.290
The person everyone likes...

00:14:13.630 --> 00:14:15.800
and wants to keep by their side.

00:14:19.630 --> 00:14:21.400
Outside the palace,

00:14:22.370 --> 00:14:24.510
that would benefit you,

00:14:25.640 --> 00:14:27.140
but in the palace...

00:14:29.240 --> 00:14:30.480
Well...

00:14:33.010 --> 00:14:34.680
Would that benefit you?

00:14:40.820 --> 00:14:43.720
The more people want you,

00:14:46.490 --> 00:14:49.700
the more harmful it will be for you.

00:15:53.590 --> 00:15:54.730
Goodbye.

00:16:25.430 --> 00:16:26.690
Where is the taste testing court lady?

00:16:27.490 --> 00:16:30.230
I heard she is being questioned
by the Royal Secretary.

00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:37.470
What matters is that I am safe.

00:16:38.640 --> 00:16:41.810
You do not have to be upset
because of those rebels.

00:16:45.950 --> 00:16:49.280
Your face reminds me
of a dog at a funeral.

00:16:50.720 --> 00:16:52.620
How can you put it so harshly?

00:16:53.150 --> 00:16:54.920
That was mean, Your Majesty.

00:16:55.890 --> 00:16:59.030
Good. I would rather see you angry.

00:16:59.530 --> 00:17:01.600
It is better than seeing
you with a long face.

00:17:07.800 --> 00:17:09.400
Shall we make a bet?

00:17:10.170 --> 00:17:11.270
Pardon?

00:17:12.710 --> 00:17:16.610
The loser has to
grant the winner a wish.

00:17:19.450 --> 00:17:21.150
By wish,

00:17:22.120 --> 00:17:24.420
are you fine with any?

00:17:26.990 --> 00:17:28.190
Do you want to do it?

00:17:29.220 --> 00:17:30.390
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:17:33.760 --> 00:17:35.930
So it seems you have a wish
you want me to fulfill.

00:17:36.560 --> 00:17:40.130
Actually, my friend was
a court maid at the King's Palace,

00:17:40.270 --> 00:17:43.070
but she was dismissed
when the previous king passed away.

00:17:44.140 --> 00:17:46.210
If I win the bet,

00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:49.240
I want her back in the palace.

00:17:50.310 --> 00:17:53.110
- Is that all right?
- Yes.

00:17:54.820 --> 00:17:56.680
I see you are already happy.

00:17:57.120 --> 00:17:59.190
But there is no guarantee you will win.

00:17:59.790 --> 00:18:03.020
What will you wish if you win,
Your Majesty?

00:18:03.220 --> 00:18:06.190
The question I asked you before.

00:18:07.330 --> 00:18:08.900
Give me your answer to it.

00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:14.740
Instead, you can make a bet...

00:18:16.200 --> 00:18:18.470
on anything you want.

00:18:24.010 --> 00:18:25.210
What do you say?

00:18:48.740 --> 00:18:50.070
Stone skipping.

00:18:50.070 --> 00:18:52.670
It is a small game
the people enjoy playing.

00:18:53.640 --> 00:18:54.940
I know what it is.

00:18:55.140 --> 00:18:57.210
Have you played it before?

00:18:58.610 --> 00:18:59.880
A couple of times...

00:19:00.750 --> 00:19:02.150
when I was little.

00:19:04.020 --> 00:19:06.720
I chose your rock for you.

00:19:09.120 --> 00:19:10.260
Maid.

00:19:10.860 --> 00:19:12.530
That stone will not do.

00:19:16.200 --> 00:19:17.960
When skipping stones,

00:19:18.330 --> 00:19:21.070
a flat stone like this is better.

00:19:21.800 --> 00:19:25.270
Your Majesty, let me demonstrate.

00:19:25.310 --> 00:19:26.470
Look.

00:19:35.580 --> 00:19:36.980
Did you see that?

00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:42.290
- I have, so step back.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

00:19:52.770 --> 00:19:54.900
I will consider
the first try as practice,

00:19:55.240 --> 00:19:56.500
so try skipping one.

00:20:16.890 --> 00:20:17.990
Go.

00:20:28.840 --> 00:20:31.940
Let us both take three turns
to decide the winner.

00:20:32.870 --> 00:20:33.910
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:20:33.910 --> 00:20:36.340
- Royal Guard, go find my stones.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

00:20:43.620 --> 00:20:44.920
What are you doing?

00:20:45.790 --> 00:20:47.090
Go find your stones.

00:20:55.730 --> 00:20:58.430
This is His Majesty's.

00:21:03.300 --> 00:21:04.700
This one!

00:21:06.610 --> 00:21:07.740
Come on.

00:21:12.810 --> 00:21:14.610
I have collected the best stones.

00:21:21.560 --> 00:21:23.520
Please start.

00:21:24.460 --> 00:21:25.730
You go first.

00:21:35.570 --> 00:21:37.100
I won!

00:21:58.060 --> 00:21:59.290
I won this time.

00:22:03.730 --> 00:22:07.700
Is the court maid you are
asking for Kim Bok Yeon?

00:22:08.470 --> 00:22:10.140
How did you know?

00:22:18.710 --> 00:22:21.080
I have occasionally
seen you together with her.

00:22:22.380 --> 00:22:24.480
You were always laughing,

00:22:26.350 --> 00:22:27.550
and I always felt...

00:22:29.690 --> 00:22:31.990
as if what belongs to me
was being taken away.

00:22:38.630 --> 00:22:40.330
Are your friends...

00:22:42.040 --> 00:22:44.040
more important than me?

00:23:13.900 --> 00:23:17.300
You won the bet,
so I will keep our promise.

00:23:21.980 --> 00:23:23.110
Your Majesty.

00:23:44.660 --> 00:23:46.930
- Bok Yeon!
- Bok Yeon!

00:23:46.930 --> 00:23:48.130
Guys!

00:23:50.070 --> 00:23:51.340
- Have you been well?
- No.

00:23:53.210 --> 00:23:54.910
Why are you crying?

00:23:56.610 --> 00:23:58.980
- I even came wearing this.
- You really did.

00:23:58.980 --> 00:24:00.780
- It is the one we bought you.
- It is.

00:24:00.780 --> 00:24:02.580
- It is pretty.
- It suits you.

00:24:02.580 --> 00:24:03.950
I put on all of them.

00:24:04.380 --> 00:24:05.620
Bok Yeon!

00:24:05.620 --> 00:24:08.520
Goodness.

00:24:09.420 --> 00:24:11.690
We missed you.

00:24:14.980 --> 00:24:18.050
Your Majesty, with your grace,

00:24:18.050 --> 00:24:20.170
I was able to reunite with my friend.

00:24:22.290 --> 00:24:24.380
I am sincerely grateful, Your Majesty.

00:24:27.890 --> 00:24:29.380
You seem very happy.

00:24:29.990 --> 00:24:31.120
I am.

00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:35.360
Just grind the ink stick.

00:24:58.020 --> 00:24:59.180
Your Majesty.

00:24:59.960 --> 00:25:03.180
Have you found who is behind the rebels?

00:25:06.830 --> 00:25:08.220
I am glad to hear that.

00:25:08.670 --> 00:25:11.660
I hope you eradicate and
punish the source of evil.

00:25:14.170 --> 00:25:17.100
Then I have to kill them all.

00:25:22.010 --> 00:25:24.670
Do you think I should kill them?

00:25:26.350 --> 00:25:29.090
You cannot forgive evil
who try to harm...

00:25:29.090 --> 00:25:30.180
Your Majesty.

00:25:30.650 --> 00:25:33.280
The royal secretary wishes to see you.

00:25:34.560 --> 00:25:35.780
Bring him in.

00:25:36.390 --> 00:25:37.580
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:25:48.410 --> 00:25:51.260
I said I will decide at
the Royal Office tomorrow.

00:25:58.080 --> 00:26:00.040
It is not something to postpone.

00:26:00.280 --> 00:26:01.980
I am ready to beg you
face down all day long...

00:26:02.250 --> 00:26:05.010
if you do not grant royal sanction.

00:26:06.820 --> 00:26:08.620
You are aware...

00:26:09.330 --> 00:26:11.280
that there is no way out.

00:26:13.560 --> 00:26:15.000
You must kill Prince Eunjeon.

00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:17.090
(Prince Sado's child of a concubine,
Jeongjo's stepbrother)

00:26:23.570 --> 00:26:25.400
I do not need tea. You may leave.

00:26:25.410 --> 00:26:26.830
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:27:03.010 --> 00:27:05.910
Duk Im. Is everything okay?

00:27:06.580 --> 00:27:09.680
Bok Yeon is back. Are you not happy?

00:27:10.450 --> 00:27:11.540
I am happy.

00:27:15.490 --> 00:27:18.250
But I am also scared.

00:27:21.360 --> 00:27:22.520
I...

00:27:24.100 --> 00:27:25.960
made a mistake today.

00:27:26.470 --> 00:27:27.690
A mistake?

00:27:28.840 --> 00:27:31.800
I was excited to see Bok Yeon
after a long time.

00:27:34.110 --> 00:27:36.470
I wanted to show off...

00:27:37.280 --> 00:27:39.870
that I am grateful of his grace...

00:27:40.080 --> 00:27:42.080
and that I am worried about his safety.

00:27:42.950 --> 00:27:46.610
So I told him to kill all the rebels.

00:27:47.190 --> 00:27:48.420
What is wrong about that?

00:27:49.290 --> 00:27:51.550
That sounds about right.

00:27:53.760 --> 00:27:57.120
Prince Eunjeon was one of the rebels.

00:27:59.070 --> 00:28:01.490
His Majesty has to kill his brother.

00:28:02.340 --> 00:28:03.630
I recommended His Majesty...

00:28:03.910 --> 00:28:06.900
to hurry up and kill his brother.

00:28:09.310 --> 00:28:10.470
Duk Im.

00:28:11.350 --> 00:28:13.570
You did not know.

00:28:14.780 --> 00:28:16.480
I must be careful of what I say...

00:28:17.520 --> 00:28:19.810
in front of His Majesty.

00:28:22.090 --> 00:28:24.420
Sometimes it is suffocating.

00:29:13.810 --> 00:29:15.670
Criminal Hong Jung Yeo shall come out...

00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:17.640
and receive the royal command.

00:29:35.000 --> 00:29:36.160
I have been...

00:29:37.230 --> 00:29:39.730
hearing a lot about you lately.

00:29:41.770 --> 00:29:44.200
There is nothing you cannot do...

00:29:44.870 --> 00:29:49.480
with the King's support.

00:29:49.480 --> 00:29:51.800
Things have changed.

00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:54.410
What about you, sir?

00:29:55.890 --> 00:29:57.910
Do you regret what you have done?

00:29:59.390 --> 00:30:00.610
Of course,

00:30:01.760 --> 00:30:03.120
I do.

00:30:05.730 --> 00:30:08.320
When the King was a Crown Prince,

00:30:08.500 --> 00:30:11.090
I should have killed him.

00:30:13.340 --> 00:30:15.200
Even if I had to brawl...

00:30:16.470 --> 00:30:20.200
and gnaw him off like a dog,

00:30:21.740 --> 00:30:24.600
I should have killed him.

00:30:25.350 --> 00:30:27.670
I ended up like this...

00:30:28.520 --> 00:30:33.010
by planning for the future
and by trying to be smart.

00:30:39.560 --> 00:30:40.650
What?

00:30:42.100 --> 00:30:46.130
Do you not think
you would end up like me?

00:30:47.140 --> 00:30:48.930
Do you think your power...

00:30:49.970 --> 00:30:53.170
will last forever?

00:31:04.790 --> 00:31:06.080
I know...

00:31:07.290 --> 00:31:10.650
I was only able to come this far
with His Majesty's support.

00:31:11.260 --> 00:31:13.820
Perhaps one day his support might end.

00:31:16.970 --> 00:31:18.560
However, do not worry.

00:31:19.800 --> 00:31:21.260
I am getting prepared...

00:31:22.640 --> 00:31:24.930
just in case.

00:31:26.340 --> 00:31:27.500
Yes.

00:31:29.110 --> 00:31:31.200
I will watch...

00:31:32.650 --> 00:31:34.970
if it goes as you planned
in the underworld.

00:31:36.320 --> 00:31:38.410
But in my opinion,

00:31:39.760 --> 00:31:41.880
we will...

00:31:42.790 --> 00:31:45.750
meet sooner than you think.

00:31:48.330 --> 00:31:50.660
Look, Duk Ro. I mean,

00:31:51.940 --> 00:31:53.930
Hong Guk Young.

00:31:55.970 --> 00:31:57.900
The King is...

00:31:58.980 --> 00:32:02.670
scarier than you think.

00:32:03.510 --> 00:32:04.800
I know...

00:32:06.280 --> 00:32:08.610
His Majesty better than you do.

00:32:10.390 --> 00:32:15.650
There are things
you only see from the distance.

00:32:16.590 --> 00:32:18.450
Goodbye now.

00:32:26.500 --> 00:32:29.460
I am here to watch my relative...

00:32:29.840 --> 00:32:31.460
leaving.

00:32:34.980 --> 00:32:36.670
I will leave now.

00:33:31.800 --> 00:33:35.060
Your son died in the place of exile.

00:33:35.970 --> 00:33:38.700
I thought I should tell you myself.

00:33:39.180 --> 00:33:40.900
So I asked you to come.

00:33:42.580 --> 00:33:43.940
Did you...

00:33:45.210 --> 00:33:46.910
kill him?

00:33:47.250 --> 00:33:48.340
Yes.

00:33:49.350 --> 00:33:51.010
I killed him.

00:33:52.620 --> 00:33:56.920
I killed your son in your place.

00:33:59.300 --> 00:34:02.460
Your son saved you.
You should be grateful for it.

00:34:04.930 --> 00:34:06.630
You may leave now.

00:34:18.850 --> 00:34:20.440
You must...

00:34:21.080 --> 00:34:24.310
show respect to His Majesty
before you leave.

00:34:35.500 --> 00:34:37.790
My son had sacrificed
himself to save me,

00:34:39.100 --> 00:34:41.230
so I will not discard my life lightly.

00:35:24.910 --> 00:35:26.470
Your Majesty!

00:35:26.880 --> 00:35:28.610
Be careful please!

00:35:28.980 --> 00:35:30.050
Your Majesty!

00:35:30.050 --> 00:35:32.480
His Majesty is greatly drunk.

00:35:32.760 --> 00:35:34.260
No... I am not...

00:35:34.260 --> 00:35:36.090
Yes, sure you are not.

00:35:36.090 --> 00:35:37.720
- Your Majesty!
- Oh my!

00:35:37.730 --> 00:35:38.880
My...

00:35:39.260 --> 00:35:41.220
I will call a physician.

00:35:45.570 --> 00:35:46.660
Your Majesty.

00:35:49.100 --> 00:35:51.330
Gosh.

00:35:52.640 --> 00:35:56.040
Gosh...

00:36:00.180 --> 00:36:01.670
Is it not Duk Im?

00:36:03.920 --> 00:36:06.110
You work hard until late.

00:36:11.630 --> 00:36:14.120
Lady Seo, you also work late. Thank you.

00:36:18.830 --> 00:36:19.960
I will...

00:36:21.970 --> 00:36:23.100
Let me...

00:36:26.680 --> 00:36:29.100
Thank you.

00:36:30.810 --> 00:36:32.280
- Royal Guard.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

00:36:32.280 --> 00:36:34.510
You worked hard today too.

00:36:35.120 --> 00:36:36.540
Thank you, Your Majesty.

00:36:36.720 --> 00:36:39.980
I will give a...

00:36:41.620 --> 00:36:43.780
present for you all.

00:36:43.930 --> 00:36:46.350
Thank you, Your Majesty.

00:36:46.730 --> 00:36:48.650
Yes, let's see...

00:36:50.430 --> 00:36:53.300
Let me see...

00:36:53.300 --> 00:36:54.460
Your Majesty!

00:36:56.070 --> 00:36:57.070
Your Majesty!

00:36:57.070 --> 00:37:00.000
Let's see... What do we have...

00:37:05.850 --> 00:37:07.410
Here...

00:37:11.850 --> 00:37:14.150
Go make some honey tea.

00:37:14.560 --> 00:37:16.090
Lady Seo.

00:37:16.090 --> 00:37:17.280
To be honest, today...

00:37:19.060 --> 00:37:20.390
Duk Im.

00:37:21.600 --> 00:37:22.990
Where are you going?

00:37:24.200 --> 00:37:26.290
I am giving you a present.

00:37:27.470 --> 00:37:28.860
Sit closely.

00:37:37.010 --> 00:37:38.100
Here.

00:37:39.310 --> 00:37:42.510
I have prepared a present for you all.

00:37:42.720 --> 00:37:45.340
Cherish it as a family treasure.

00:37:46.720 --> 00:37:49.110
Thank you, Your Majesty.

00:37:49.390 --> 00:37:50.480
Here.

00:37:58.470 --> 00:38:02.030
Thin...

00:38:03.270 --> 00:38:06.830
and long...

00:38:09.210 --> 00:38:10.700
- Lady Seo.
- Yes.

00:38:11.080 --> 00:38:13.240
How are my art skills?

00:38:14.180 --> 00:38:17.480
It is the best I have ever seen!

00:38:17.650 --> 00:38:21.010
Even the great artists will cry upon it.

00:38:24.290 --> 00:38:26.050
Among all the masterpieces...

00:38:26.060 --> 00:38:28.150
None is better than this.

00:38:30.930 --> 00:38:32.890
- Is that true?
- Yes, Your Majesty.

00:38:32.900 --> 00:38:35.100
Then this is for Lady Seo.

00:38:35.100 --> 00:38:38.130
Thank you, Your Majesty!

00:38:38.510 --> 00:38:39.600
Now,

00:38:40.940 --> 00:38:42.630
- Royal Guard.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

00:38:42.850 --> 00:38:47.070
Do you not want one as well?

00:38:48.250 --> 00:38:49.910
I surely do, Your Majesty.

00:38:49.920 --> 00:38:54.250
Then I shall draw something...

00:38:55.120 --> 00:38:58.080
that looks exactly like you.

00:38:59.090 --> 00:39:00.290
Here...

00:39:10.610 --> 00:39:11.730
There!

00:39:11.970 --> 00:39:14.700
This is for you.

00:39:18.010 --> 00:39:19.200
What is this, Your Majesty?

00:39:19.210 --> 00:39:23.480
How is it? Does it not
look exactly like you?

00:39:24.550 --> 00:39:25.780
Oh my...

00:39:28.020 --> 00:39:29.650
It looks exactly like me.

00:39:33.830 --> 00:39:34.950
You...

00:39:36.600 --> 00:39:38.260
are quiet today.

00:39:42.700 --> 00:39:47.300
I will draw one for you as well, Duk Im.

00:39:48.380 --> 00:39:49.470
Here...

00:40:02.190 --> 00:40:03.280
There!

00:40:04.560 --> 00:40:06.490
How are my art skills?

00:40:08.200 --> 00:40:11.520
I dare speak truthfully...

00:40:16.640 --> 00:40:19.700
I heard the great artist
of Joseon has great skills,

00:40:20.080 --> 00:40:23.070
but not as much as you, Your Majesty.

00:40:24.580 --> 00:40:25.700
Sure does!

00:40:27.320 --> 00:40:28.450
Is that true?

00:40:28.450 --> 00:40:30.540
- Yes, Your Majesty!
- Yes, Your Majesty!

00:40:32.650 --> 00:40:35.590
Then I shall give this to Duk im.

00:40:35.590 --> 00:40:36.780
Here you go.

00:40:38.160 --> 00:40:41.790
Your Majesty! This makes me envy her.

00:40:42.060 --> 00:40:43.990
Please draw one more for me.

00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:47.860
Your Majesty!
Please do not favor Duk Im!

00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:52.760
In that case, for you two...

00:40:54.380 --> 00:40:57.070
I shall draw just one more.

00:40:57.080 --> 00:40:59.600
- Yes, Your Majesty!
- Yes, Your Majesty!

00:40:59.820 --> 00:41:01.470
I will go make the honey tea.

00:41:01.650 --> 00:41:02.720
Okay.

00:41:02.720 --> 00:41:06.320
I shall draw a picture
that resembles you two.

00:41:06.320 --> 00:41:08.660
Thank you, Your Majesty!

00:41:08.660 --> 00:41:13.520
Here, this is for the Royal Guard.

00:41:16.300 --> 00:41:17.390
Oh my...

00:41:19.600 --> 00:41:22.690
This is surely great!

00:41:23.070 --> 00:41:25.960
Here... Give this to the Head Eunuch.

00:41:26.340 --> 00:41:28.030
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:41:36.690 --> 00:41:40.910
His Majesty has executed
Prince Eunjeon today?

00:41:42.390 --> 00:41:44.480
Among the rebels...

00:41:45.230 --> 00:41:47.490
Prince Eunjeon's name was mentioned.

00:41:49.160 --> 00:41:50.990
Hence, His Majesty had no choice...

00:41:51.970 --> 00:41:53.890
but to allow the execution.

00:41:55.900 --> 00:41:59.700
His Majesty had spent nights
trying not to have...

00:41:59.710 --> 00:42:01.500
his brother killed.

00:42:03.680 --> 00:42:05.740
I wonder how sad he is now.

00:42:28.500 --> 00:42:31.070
Your Majesty, the others...

00:42:31.070 --> 00:42:33.000
I sent them away as I wish to be alone.

00:42:35.110 --> 00:42:37.000
I suspected you gone as well.

00:42:44.120 --> 00:42:45.440
Drink this.

00:43:16.790 --> 00:43:18.480
Are you in pain?

00:43:21.120 --> 00:43:23.110
You should not say that.

00:43:26.800 --> 00:43:29.420
You are the one
who gives me pain the most.

00:43:33.540 --> 00:43:35.290
Why do you avoid me these days?

00:43:38.140 --> 00:43:39.900
You also do not come to the library.

00:43:42.280 --> 00:43:44.870
I am busy these days...

00:43:44.880 --> 00:43:47.270
Are you avoiding being with me alone?

00:43:50.750 --> 00:43:53.910
Are you afraid I might ask
for your answer quickly?

00:44:00.160 --> 00:44:01.520
Recently, I am...

00:44:03.930 --> 00:44:06.290
the same as others.

00:44:07.870 --> 00:44:09.390
What do you mean...

00:44:09.400 --> 00:44:11.760
I fear myself just as others do.

00:44:14.280 --> 00:44:17.270
Are you not afraid of a king
who kills his own brother?

00:44:18.750 --> 00:44:20.280
Is it uncomfortable to stay beside...

00:44:20.280 --> 00:44:22.970
a man who kills even his own family?

00:44:23.080 --> 00:44:24.740
Why do you say that?

00:44:24.750 --> 00:44:27.280
Then why do you look at me
with such eyes?

00:44:27.660 --> 00:44:30.280
Because you seem
to be in so much pain...

00:44:32.230 --> 00:44:36.290
You seemed to be in pain
ever since you got the throne.

00:44:36.330 --> 00:44:38.690
You don't look comfortable a day.

00:44:39.400 --> 00:44:43.700
I want to do something for you,
but I can not do anything.

00:44:45.140 --> 00:44:49.400
I also feel helpless day by day.

00:44:50.550 --> 00:44:53.610
I wish I was rather a swordsman.

00:44:54.820 --> 00:44:57.480
Then at least I will
be able to protect you.

00:44:58.820 --> 00:45:00.480
Don't make me laugh.

00:45:01.990 --> 00:45:05.680
I have many swordsmen.

00:45:08.000 --> 00:45:09.150
You know well...

00:45:11.030 --> 00:45:15.330
that is not what I want from you.

00:45:25.190 --> 00:45:27.790
Did you say you're
announcing a spouse order?

00:45:27.790 --> 00:45:30.020
There is no good news from you.

00:45:30.160 --> 00:45:34.260
I will be ashamed to see
the late King if this continues.

00:45:35.100 --> 00:45:38.300
I should choose a royal concubine
to continue the royal bloodline.

00:45:38.470 --> 00:45:41.170
That is what I should do.

00:45:42.470 --> 00:45:44.570
I decide...

00:45:44.940 --> 00:45:46.440
who to put next to me.

00:45:47.580 --> 00:45:50.310
Then appoint someone
as a royal concubine.

00:45:51.110 --> 00:45:55.650
Is there a woman in this country
that you can't have?

00:45:57.020 --> 00:46:01.060
There can't be a woman
who refuses your heart.

00:46:01.060 --> 00:46:02.290
Leave...

00:46:03.660 --> 00:46:06.760
my business to me.

00:46:07.600 --> 00:46:09.930
This is not only your business.

00:46:10.230 --> 00:46:14.000
This is my, queen dowager's business.

00:46:16.000 --> 00:46:19.340
It is your business to
accept the woman...

00:46:19.940 --> 00:46:23.210
that I pick for you
as a royal concubine.

00:46:23.210 --> 00:46:24.310
So...

00:46:25.580 --> 00:46:29.180
does it mean that you will choose
without discussing with me?

00:46:30.620 --> 00:46:32.890
Did you discuss with me...

00:46:33.420 --> 00:46:35.990
when you sent my brother to exile?

00:46:38.030 --> 00:46:40.360
When you were just a Crown Prince,

00:46:40.400 --> 00:46:43.030
I have done you a favor.

00:46:43.870 --> 00:46:46.300
But as soon as you got on the throne,

00:46:46.900 --> 00:46:49.270
you quickly forgot about the old days.

00:46:51.510 --> 00:46:53.740
You're the Majesty of this country,

00:46:53.840 --> 00:46:56.340
but Internal Court is my job.

00:46:57.080 --> 00:46:58.450
So do not dare...

00:46:59.380 --> 00:47:00.920
to interfere.

00:47:04.890 --> 00:47:09.790
I will choose a woman
who suits you the best.

00:47:22.970 --> 00:47:25.440
- Head Eunuch.
- Yes, Your Majesty.

00:47:25.440 --> 00:47:27.440
Where is mother?

00:47:29.210 --> 00:47:31.950
Why did you ally with queen dowager?

00:47:35.820 --> 00:47:37.050
When the King...

00:47:38.020 --> 00:47:40.760
tried to kill my siblings and nephews,

00:47:43.620 --> 00:47:46.790
I wished queen dowager to be on my side.

00:47:47.430 --> 00:47:49.800
So I didn't oppose to her spouse order.

00:47:49.800 --> 00:47:51.530
I had no reason to as well.

00:47:53.900 --> 00:47:56.300
The spouse order is just a show.

00:47:57.040 --> 00:48:00.610
The royal concubine is already chosen.

00:48:01.440 --> 00:48:02.880
Who is she?

00:48:06.080 --> 00:48:08.020
Is it Hong Duk Ro is sister?

00:48:08.720 --> 00:48:12.120
Royal Secretary is a loyalist,
so it is good for you.

00:48:12.120 --> 00:48:13.420
That loyalist...

00:48:14.390 --> 00:48:16.990
met my mother without my permission.

00:48:18.160 --> 00:48:22.660
Is that why you made Hong Duk Ro
meet queen dowager?

00:48:25.030 --> 00:48:29.170
Hong Duk Ro is from
the same Hong family as you.

00:48:30.240 --> 00:48:32.340
You must have been happy
to make this happen.

00:48:32.740 --> 00:48:34.310
- Your Majesty.
- Yes.

00:48:35.540 --> 00:48:39.310
Everything went as you wished.

00:48:40.210 --> 00:48:43.280
A daughter of a noble
family is my Queen.

00:48:44.020 --> 00:48:46.690
The new royal concubine
is also from a noble family...

00:48:47.520 --> 00:48:49.890
and from the same Hong family as you.

00:48:51.790 --> 00:48:53.660
Are you satisfied now?

00:48:54.660 --> 00:48:55.800
Your Majesty.

00:48:58.370 --> 00:49:01.200
I know why you're angry.

00:49:02.170 --> 00:49:03.640
You have someone...

00:49:04.410 --> 00:49:06.440
in your heart.

00:49:10.650 --> 00:49:14.880
Do you know who I called
when the Royal Secretary came?

00:49:16.080 --> 00:49:17.420
Sung Duk Im.

00:49:18.620 --> 00:49:20.320
I called her.

00:49:22.420 --> 00:49:24.730
I asked her...

00:49:25.660 --> 00:49:30.130
to support you by your side
as a royal concubine.

00:49:31.070 --> 00:49:33.770
I'm sorry Her Highness Lady Hyegyeong.

00:49:34.600 --> 00:49:37.970
I do not wish to be a royal concubine.

00:49:46.810 --> 00:49:47.980
Did...

00:49:50.150 --> 00:49:53.190
she really say that?

00:49:54.290 --> 00:49:55.420
Your Majesty,

00:49:56.490 --> 00:50:01.160
if you wish, I can force her
to be a royal concubine.

00:50:01.600 --> 00:50:03.700
I like her,

00:50:05.400 --> 00:50:08.740
but you are my son who is
more precious than my life.

00:50:12.940 --> 00:50:15.410
What do you want me to do?

00:50:27.560 --> 00:50:31.530
Your Majesty,
is this the book you're looking for?

00:50:37.770 --> 00:50:39.530
The book was just an excuse...

00:50:41.200 --> 00:50:43.100
to call you here.

00:50:47.110 --> 00:50:48.780
I want to ask you something.

00:50:51.950 --> 00:50:54.220
Did my mother call for you?

00:50:58.020 --> 00:51:03.690
Did she ask if you would
be my royal concubine?

00:51:05.330 --> 00:51:08.430
- Yes.
- And you refused?

00:51:09.230 --> 00:51:10.970
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:51:17.440 --> 00:51:19.170
Why do I...

00:51:20.440 --> 00:51:22.440
have to hear this through my mother?

00:51:25.050 --> 00:51:27.010
Whether you said yes or no,

00:51:29.820 --> 00:51:31.550
you should have come and told me.

00:51:35.060 --> 00:51:36.490
Why are you afraid?

00:51:39.130 --> 00:51:40.830
No matter how angry I am,

00:51:42.100 --> 00:51:43.960
what can I do to you?

00:51:51.870 --> 00:51:53.810
What is your reason to
refuse to be a royal concubine?

00:51:55.140 --> 00:51:57.110
Everything I have will disappear.

00:51:57.780 --> 00:51:59.550
I do not understand.

00:52:00.310 --> 00:52:01.750
Say it in a more understandable way.

00:52:02.080 --> 00:52:03.720
If I become your royal concubine,

00:52:03.720 --> 00:52:06.020
I need to give everything to you...

00:52:06.090 --> 00:52:08.020
and I will have nothing.

00:52:11.260 --> 00:52:13.130
All humans are the same.

00:52:13.790 --> 00:52:15.730
If you give everything to someone,

00:52:15.730 --> 00:52:18.070
you will want to receive
everything as well.

00:52:18.630 --> 00:52:22.570
But you are a person
who can not do that.

00:52:24.570 --> 00:52:27.140
To you it is just adding...

00:52:27.140 --> 00:52:29.840
an unimportant woman to your daily life,

00:52:31.010 --> 00:52:33.850
but my whole petty life will change.

00:52:34.320 --> 00:52:36.850
I will not be able to go back
to my old life ever again.

00:52:41.390 --> 00:52:42.660
I am afraid...

00:52:44.160 --> 00:52:45.360
of losing.

00:52:49.760 --> 00:52:53.800
Does it mean that you are
afraid of losing my heart?

00:52:55.140 --> 00:52:56.340
No.

00:52:57.040 --> 00:52:59.940
I am afraid of losing myself.

00:53:07.480 --> 00:53:09.620
I will put this off for a while.

00:53:13.150 --> 00:53:14.790
I said I will put this off.

00:53:16.460 --> 00:53:18.090
I did not say I will forget about it.

00:53:55.800 --> 00:53:57.700
You are going through a lot.

00:53:57.700 --> 00:54:00.230
- Are you doing fine?
- Yes.

00:54:00.970 --> 00:54:02.240
That is good.

00:54:07.580 --> 00:54:09.910
You are here.

00:54:10.510 --> 00:54:13.810
His Excellency.
Have you heard the announcement?

00:54:15.120 --> 00:54:18.990
Queen dowager made an order.

00:54:19.420 --> 00:54:20.620
I know that.

00:54:20.960 --> 00:54:23.060
It is about choosing a royal concubine.

00:54:23.420 --> 00:54:26.690
Do you know the most
promising candidate?

00:54:28.260 --> 00:54:30.230
That is obvious.

00:54:36.000 --> 00:54:37.540
Royal Secretary, welcome.

00:54:37.540 --> 00:54:39.870
You are looking good today.

00:54:52.090 --> 00:54:53.250
Chief State Councilor.

00:54:54.120 --> 00:54:55.320
Hello.

00:55:24.220 --> 00:55:26.290
Choosing a royal concubine
is Internal Court's business...

00:55:26.420 --> 00:55:30.220
so I prohibit the topic
to be spoken here.

00:55:30.830 --> 00:55:33.190
Continuing the bloodline
of Your Majesty...

00:55:33.360 --> 00:55:36.130
is the issue of the safety of
our country and the royal family.

00:55:36.600 --> 00:55:39.930
How can we consider this topic
as the Internal Court's business?

00:55:40.470 --> 00:55:42.670
It is choosing my royal concubine,

00:55:43.240 --> 00:55:45.910
but the authority is with queen dowager.

00:55:47.210 --> 00:55:51.210
Is there any other choice than
accepting queen dowager's choice?

00:55:53.010 --> 00:55:57.180
If you are a loyal servant,
of course you should not interfere.

00:55:59.850 --> 00:56:01.060
Your Majesty,

00:56:14.100 --> 00:56:15.970
I, Shim Hee Won...

00:56:16.640 --> 00:56:20.570
have one question.

00:56:21.210 --> 00:56:22.810
Go ahead.

00:56:23.010 --> 00:56:24.210
I still...

00:56:24.210 --> 00:56:29.250
do not know the big picture of yours.

00:56:30.850 --> 00:56:34.220
You are always in the library...

00:56:34.660 --> 00:56:36.460
and you are close to...

00:56:36.460 --> 00:56:38.590
concubines sons.

00:56:39.660 --> 00:56:41.260
I am sorry,

00:56:41.660 --> 00:56:44.730
but what use are they?

00:56:45.730 --> 00:56:50.900
Your Majesty,
what are your plans for the future?

00:56:57.580 --> 00:57:00.010
There are several things
that I want to remove...

00:57:00.580 --> 00:57:03.480
and three things that I wish to achieve.

00:57:06.990 --> 00:57:08.720
I am not the greatest King.

00:57:09.420 --> 00:57:11.460
Three things seem to be too much.

00:57:12.560 --> 00:57:14.430
I think two are enough.

00:57:20.230 --> 00:57:22.170
Now that I think about it...

00:57:23.170 --> 00:57:25.070
Two things are too much as well.

00:57:26.570 --> 00:57:30.110
Achieving one will be enough.

00:57:33.650 --> 00:57:34.880
It is water control.

00:57:35.850 --> 00:57:37.050
Water control.

00:57:37.520 --> 00:57:41.060
Is it to control water?

00:57:41.960 --> 00:57:43.560
Reducing the damage caused
by flooding and drought...

00:57:43.560 --> 00:57:45.930
by building up all kinds of banks.

00:57:46.430 --> 00:57:50.000
Your Majesty, water control can be...

00:57:50.000 --> 00:57:53.130
done by the Repair and Bank Department.

00:57:54.870 --> 00:57:55.970
No.

00:57:58.610 --> 00:58:00.170
I think...

00:58:00.870 --> 00:58:02.940
there is nothing more important
than water control.

00:58:03.740 --> 00:58:05.910
There is nothing more
urgent than that too.

00:58:06.910 --> 00:58:11.120
So let's discuss water control today.

00:58:12.720 --> 00:58:15.690
I would like to hear
your opinion about this.

00:58:18.790 --> 00:58:19.960
I am sorry.

00:58:22.700 --> 00:58:23.860
I have nothing to say.

00:58:33.340 --> 00:58:35.380
Are there any other opinions?

00:59:23.120 --> 00:59:26.190
I was worried that you would not come.

00:59:34.070 --> 00:59:36.140
We are choosing your woman...

00:59:36.470 --> 00:59:38.770
so you should be a part of it.

00:59:45.380 --> 00:59:46.650
It is you.

00:59:47.880 --> 00:59:50.650
- My Queen.
- This is good.

00:59:51.350 --> 00:59:53.320
I felt lonely recently.

00:59:53.620 --> 00:59:56.390
Can you read a book
for me from time to time?

00:59:59.090 --> 01:00:02.730
If you wish, I will choose court maids
who are good at reading...

01:00:03.230 --> 01:00:04.930
and send them to your palace.

01:00:06.500 --> 01:00:08.540
I like this one.

01:00:13.470 --> 01:00:16.340
Since she likes you, go ahead.

01:00:17.980 --> 01:00:19.250
Yes, Your Majesty.

01:00:23.150 --> 01:00:24.320
My King,

01:00:26.550 --> 01:00:29.020
I am feeling dizzy.

01:00:29.320 --> 01:00:32.430
Could you help me walk?

01:00:55.250 --> 01:00:59.520
As a grandmother,
shall I interfere in your business?

01:01:01.920 --> 01:01:04.990
It is not wrong to wish for something.

01:01:06.530 --> 01:01:08.330
Now you are a King.

01:01:10.460 --> 01:01:12.600
You may be greedy.

01:01:13.600 --> 01:01:16.170
If you want anything,
you may force them...

01:01:16.340 --> 01:01:18.310
to give it to you.

01:01:19.970 --> 01:01:23.810
I do not understand what you mean.

01:01:25.350 --> 01:01:28.650
I want you to know...

01:01:29.620 --> 01:01:31.550
that I can help you at any time.

01:01:32.820 --> 01:01:37.460
I only wish to be a good King.

01:01:38.260 --> 01:01:40.960
I do not want to spare my time
on personal matters.

01:01:41.800 --> 01:01:44.300
Then you should try harder.

01:01:46.370 --> 01:01:49.700
I do not see your accomplishments yet.

01:01:50.940 --> 01:01:53.440
You killed your grandfather,

01:01:53.640 --> 01:01:55.980
your aunt's stepson,

01:01:56.880 --> 01:01:58.710
and your own brother.

01:02:06.250 --> 01:02:09.890
I understand that you
have struggled very hard...

01:02:10.390 --> 01:02:12.430
to survive.

01:02:15.130 --> 01:02:16.800
But about your accomplishment?

01:02:17.830 --> 01:02:19.130
I am not sure.

01:02:20.200 --> 01:02:22.740
I do not see any.

01:02:46.460 --> 01:02:48.130
As you all know,

01:02:48.130 --> 01:02:51.930
Queen Wonbin has become
His Majesty's concubine.

01:02:52.470 --> 01:02:56.340
Queen Wonbin has to
learn the royal customs first.

01:02:56.540 --> 01:02:59.010
Court Lady Kwon has left
for Sookchang Palace...

01:02:59.010 --> 01:03:00.640
to teach her.

01:03:01.240 --> 01:03:05.550
While she is gone, the King's palace
must stay safe and sound.

01:03:05.550 --> 01:03:06.710
Do you understand?

01:03:07.510 --> 01:03:09.620
- Yes, my lady.
- Yes, my lady.

01:03:13.450 --> 01:03:16.220
The royal secretary is unbelievable.

01:03:16.890 --> 01:03:19.560
He was on a roll,

01:03:19.960 --> 01:03:21.600
and now he made his sister
a concubine...

01:03:21.600 --> 01:03:23.300
and became the King's relative.

01:03:25.500 --> 01:03:28.200
You always praised Master Hong.

01:03:28.200 --> 01:03:30.070
Do you finally see who he is?

01:03:30.370 --> 01:03:33.270
He is just one greedy and scary man.

01:03:33.910 --> 01:03:37.210
Do not insult my master.

01:03:37.210 --> 01:03:38.850
He is no longer your master.

01:03:39.180 --> 01:03:42.150
He is a royal secretary
with great power.

01:03:43.020 --> 01:03:47.390
Do you know he killed
dozens of people for treason?

01:03:47.920 --> 01:03:51.560
He even arrested innocent court ladies
and tortured them.

01:03:52.130 --> 01:03:53.260
Kyung Hee.

01:03:53.390 --> 01:03:54.900
You should stop.

01:03:57.630 --> 01:04:00.200
Lady Sung?

01:04:03.500 --> 01:04:04.640
Queen Wonbin.

01:04:04.640 --> 01:04:06.710
It is you.

01:04:06.910 --> 01:04:08.780
I have always wished to meet you again.

01:04:11.140 --> 01:04:12.280
Look.

01:04:12.350 --> 01:04:15.980
I kept the perfume pouch you gave me.

01:04:17.150 --> 01:04:20.850
My brother told me
about you from time to time.

01:04:21.660 --> 01:04:23.720
He said you are a nice person,

01:04:24.790 --> 01:04:26.730
and that I can trust you.

01:04:28.260 --> 01:04:29.960
Queen Wonbin.

01:04:30.900 --> 01:04:32.700
Your Highness.

01:04:34.470 --> 01:04:37.340
Your Highness. Where are you?

01:04:48.950 --> 01:04:53.750
His Majesty is going to
Sookchang Palace tonight.

01:04:54.920 --> 01:04:56.060
Yes.

01:04:56.760 --> 01:05:00.630
His Majesty will not come back tonight.

01:05:00.630 --> 01:05:02.630
You do not have to stay like that.

01:05:04.230 --> 01:05:06.700
Here. I have a gift for you.

01:05:08.370 --> 01:05:09.540
What is this?

01:05:09.970 --> 01:05:11.640
I have fresh cotton inside.

01:05:11.640 --> 01:05:14.110
It is very cozy when you hug it.

01:05:14.110 --> 01:05:17.140
You should hug it and
sleep leaning against the wall.

01:05:18.810 --> 01:05:20.610
Thank you, my lady.

01:05:39.100 --> 01:05:43.040
Waiting for His Majesty
all night long here...

01:05:44.000 --> 01:05:47.610
is only my duty.

01:05:48.940 --> 01:05:50.140
So...

01:05:51.910 --> 01:05:54.050
Do not think about anything else.

01:05:56.080 --> 01:05:58.590
I must get used to waiting.

01:06:00.450 --> 01:06:04.720
I am merely a court lady
who serves the King.
