Rooftop Prince
Princess.
Are you out there Princess?
Is anyone out there?
Hey there.
Is no one out there?
Hey there!
Can't you hear me?
Is no one out there?
What is it?
Your Highness...
Tell me.
I'm asking what's going on?
Your Highness, Crown Prince...
Tell me!
What's the problem?
Princess.
Princess...
Let go!
Let me go!
Where do you think you're laying down at? Princess!
Princess... Let go!
Princess!
Prince.
Yes, father.
All the advisors are suggesting that you pick your future Crown Princess and get married.
So...what kind of a girl would you like to have as your wife?
I would like to have a woman who's beautiful as my wife.
What?
Your Highness.
I beg your pardon...but do you mean that you just need the girl to be beautiful?
I think that she has to be beautiful for me to want to see her every day.
Father.
What would be the use if every day is a lonely life after becoming the Crown Prince?
What?
A lonely life?
Sis, Sis! Hwa Yong!
Boo Yong.
What is it for you to be so worked up about?
Hwa Yong. The whole town is a buzz right now.
At last, there is an order to pick an eligible seat for the Crown Princess.
Really?
They're searching for the Crown Princess?
That's right.
Do you know why our household is loud right now?
They say father will become the Crown Prince's father in law.
That rumor has already spread, and people are sending their gifts already.
If father is to become the Crown Prince's father-in-law...
Doesn't that mean either you or I will become the Crown Princess?
Who do you think is going to become the Crown Princess?
Come on now.
Don't you think that it would of course be you?
My sister becoming the Princess... just the thought of it alone makes me happy.
Thanks to you, I guess I'll be able to take a tour of the palace.
Boo Yong.
If I become the Crown Princess,
I'm going to call you to the palace every day,
and feed you delicious food, and dress you in fine clothes.
I wonder what the Crown Prince looks like?
You two probably have heard it already and know about it.
There will be a request for a meeting with one of you for the seat of The Crown Princess.
Until you are called to the palace,
you have to be careful about even how you drink a sip of water.
And be careful even about the steps that you take.
Becoming a Crown Princess,
means that the fate of our household is at stake. Please remember that.
As for the entry of the eligible girl....
know that I will be sending the younger daughter, Boo Yong.
Husband... did you just say, the younger daughter?
That's right.
Our little daughter, Boo Yong will be sent as the one to meet the Crown Prince.
Father.
Hwa Yong, you listen well.
Yes, Father.
You're going to have to help your sister for her entry.
Do you understand?
Yes, Father.
Park Ha.
Oh my...you must be Park Ha.
Park Ha. You need to say hello.
Hello.
You're...Se Na?
Yes.
Mom.
Order me that ice cream too.
Okay, okay.
Excuse me.
Um...Park Ha.
We're all...going to be living together now.
This is Se-Na. You can call her older sister.
Did I or did I not tell you to take good care of her while Mom and Dad were at work?
It's a relief the house didn't get caught on fire.
Why were you trying to make ramen by yourself when you're so little?
If you touch that stove again, you're going to be in big trouble!
I told you to take good care of her.
Is this your sister?
Open the bag.
What did my sister do?
I told you to open the bag!
I don't want to! Why?
-Why you little... -I told you, I don't want to!
-Stand still. -I said, you can't.
Hey.
What is all this?
I asked what all this is?!
I don't know, Se Na. I don't know.
Did you steal all this?
Are you a thief?
-Tell me! Are you a thief?! -I don't know. I'm not...
-Why did you steal this? -I don't know...
You brat... are you going to steal again, or not?
Why are you stealing?
I'll go and get you some milk. You just wait here.
Se Na!
Se Na! Se Na! Se Na!
Se Na!
Se Na! Look over here! Se Na!
Se Na! Over here! Look over here!
Over here! Se Na!
Se Na!!!
Se Na! Look over here!
No...try that outfit on her.
And try those other shoes on her.
As for the ribbon...which ribbon do you think will be better, Hwa Yong?
A ribbon...
I think this one will be good, Mother.
No.
Let's see here...
That's right, Hwa Yong.
You know that ribbon you got as a gift last fall from the Song's?
I think that will match very well.
Hwa Yong, hurry up and get that ribbon.
Mother, that's Hwa Yong's ribbon.
What we have here is more than enough.
No, Crown Princess.
The Crown Prince wants his Princess to be very beautiful.
You have to look beautiful.
Hwa Yong.
Hwa Yong, I'm coming in.
Okay. Come in.
Hwa Yong, let's have some dried persimmons.
I heard that the outfit you're going to wear has been chosen.
I'm doing this because I wanted to iron it for you with my own hands.
Thank you, Hwa Yong.
Earlier today...you were upset because of the ribbon, right?
It's not like that. I'm fine.
Hwa Yong...
Tomorrow is the day for you to be admitted, right?
I guess the day is here already.
Hwa Yong...
There aren't many days left now until we have to part ways.
I'm so sad, I don't know what to do.
Just like we talked about before, I'll call you over to the Palace every day.
Let's eat delicious things together, and share all the good things together.
Hwa Yong, let's eat some of this dried persimmons while we talk.
No, you eat it first.
-No, you eat it first. -I told you to eat it first!
What did you say?
How could something like this have happened?
Just what have you been doing?
The scar on our little daughter's face is going to remain there forever.
What are we going to do about this, husband?
What do we do?
Be quiet!
Bring me the entry box.
We need to enter our older daughter, Hwa Yong instead.
Even the butterfly was fooled.
How outstanding our Crown Princess's embroidery skills must be,
for the butterfly to think that it's a real flower.
It looks like the butterfly is really going to come to life and fly away.
There's no way to stop this exquisiteness.
Mok-Dan-Hom-Lo-Jin-Ju- Gwa.
If a flower drinks in the pearly dew,
Mi-In-Jul-Deuk-Chan-Jun-Gwa.
The bride picks the flower and pass by the window.
Princess.
You have to give me a reply.
Han-Soo-Mun-Dal-Lam Hwa-Gwa-Cham-Mo-Gam.
With a slight smile on the face, she asks her husband.
Is the flower pretty, or am I more pretty?
Is that my sister-in-law's response?
Dan-Lam-Go-Sang-He, Kang-Do-Hwa-Ji Ho.
As the groom jokes with the pearl,
he replies the flower is prettier than you.
Mi-In-to-Hwa-Seul, Dop-Hwa-Ha-Ji Do.
The bride got annoyed with the reply that the flower was prettier,
so she stomps the flower with her foot.
Hwa-Ya-Seu-Nop-Chuk.
If the flower is prettier than me,
Geum-So-Hwa Dong-Sook.
you can sleep with the flower tonight.
How can you who's not even a scholar know all these phrases?
I beg your pardon, Your Highness.
I must not know my place.
Please forgive me.
It's a joke, a joke.
I enjoy teasing you.
Your Highness.
I'm curious to see which flowers have bloomed.
Oh, is that right?
Lead the way to the garden.
Your highness.
-That flower over there... -Boo Yong.
I've come up with another riddle.
You definitely won't be able to solve it so easily this time.
If you bring me an answer within two days, I'm going to give you a big reward.
You understand, Boo Yong?
Yes, Your Highness.
What dies even when it's living, and lives even when it's dead?
Dies even when it's living, and lives even when it's dead...
Do you think you know what the riddle is?
I don't think I know.
I doubt you'll know.
You don't know.
Listen to what I have to say.
Make sure no one talks about the Princess.
Without even a single point of doubt, protect the Princess.
Yes, Your Highness.
Both of you, listen to me closely.
From now on,
They are by the temple the Princess was found dead at last night.
Not a single person can trespass it. So warn and alert everyone.
-Yes, Your Highness! -Yes, Your Highness!
No one can touch even a single glass or a cup within the walls of this palace.
So send out the alert.
-Yes, Your Highness. -Yes, Your Highness.
How dare they.
Within this country's Royal Palace, someone took the Crown Princess' life...
I will without a doubt...
find the criminal that murdered the Crown Princess. And then...
I'm going to tear that person's body to bits and pieces.
And in case there was someone who helped that criminal!
I'm going to cut out that person's life.
Tomatoes and oranges for sale!
Hey! Thieves!
Stop right there!
Or I'm going to kick your ass!
You're dead.
Oh my God!
Oh no!
I'm so sorry!
-Tae Yong, you okay? -Are you okay?
By any chance...are you Korean?
Ah, yes.
He's going to be fine.
I'm sorry.
But by the way...over there.
Hey, you brats!
You're stealing again?
Stop right there!
You okay, Tae Yong?
Why are you so late?
It took me two hours to get through the airport.
As if some kind of an accident happened.
Grandma's doing well, right?
As long as you don't upset her.
Hi Mark.
Earlier...the one who hit you...
Miss Apple?
Wait...
Do you know her?
No.
I saw her and thought she was pretty.
Wow...this is the first time I've heard you say a girl is pretty.
-Hey Zoe. -Hi.
You have the day of tomorrow, right?
Do you want to go catch a movie?
Yeah...but I changed my schedule with Barry. So I'm taking the following day off.
-That's too bad. Next time, then. Bye. -Take care. Thanks. Bye.
-Thanks. -Not bad.
-Thanks. -Thank you.
Tae Yong.
I heard that the Miss Apple has the day off the day after tomorrow.
Ask her out on a date.
How did you find that out?
That's why I'm a pro.
You said she was pretty... ask her out on a date.
Hey...she's coming. She's coming.
I've chartered a yacht to go out tomorrow to sketch.
You want to come with?
Yes, yes.
I can hear you better now. I'm sorry. Please go ahead.
Excuse me?
Are you serious?
There's no doubt?
I'm going to Korea. I'm going to Korea!
Did you find your lost father?
Yes, that's right!
I found my father. I just got a call from Korea!
-Oh my God! Oh my God! -Oh my God! Oh my God!
I'm happy!
Tae Yong. Grandma's calling.
Don't answer it. I'll call her back later.
Hey, but you should answer.
I told you not to answer it.
This time...she told me to make sure to bring you back to Seoul.
Just tell Grandma that you couldn't find me.
Your Grandma...
I guess I should call her the Chairman.
I think the chairman has decided to step down from the company now.
Why does she want me back when I don't even know anything?
When it comes to the company, uncle is there...
and she has you too.
The company is your affair, not mine...or father's.
Why are you being like this? We're all family.
I told you I don't want to talk about that.
You and I...
are half cousins.
I only have a 50% right to be your older cousin.
-Tae Moo. -Chairman...is your grandmother.
She's not my grandmother.
I can't call her Grandmother. I have never even called her that.
My father...was discarded by the chairman, and has always been a thorn on the side.
Because my father is the child of her husband's affair.
That's why the company... is your family affair!
Why are you seriously being like this? You're being a bore!
You don't need to say things like that.
If you don't want me to talk about this stuff, get on the plane and take it for 14 hours.
So I don't have to do this kind of an errand!
Stop it, Tae Moo!
Tae Yong! Tae Yong!
Thank you.
What are you doing?
-I'll take a picture. -No, I'll take a picture of you.
Forget it.
Tae Moo.
Did you have a nice trip?
Why are you being like this all of a sudden?
Just...
Stay like this for a bit.
What? Missing?
Mother! What's wrong?
-Wake up! Mother! -Mother.
Have a seat over here.
He's missing?
Our Tae Yong is missing... what does that mean? Missing?
Chairman. It's too early to say he's missing.
You said it with your mouth right now that he's missing, Tae Moon.
Mother, that is...
It's because my son hasn't seen Tae Yong even though he was in New York for five days.
He couldn't reach him, that's why he said that.
That's why he said it would be good to contact the New York Police.
Tae Moo.
Didn't you go to New York after you spoke to Tae Yong?
Yes sir, I did.
But...Tae Yong didn't show up at the place we were going to meet.
The phone was turned off, and he didn't come home.
There weren't any friends who knew about his whereabouts.
What do we do about this?
Nothing bad happened to our Tae Yong, right?
Chairman.
I'll send someone to America.
We have to entrust a specialist with something like this.
Okay. Do that.
Get on it right away!
Yes, Chairman.
Are you Miss Park Ha who came from America?
Yes, that's right.
- Hello. - Hello.
Your DNA test results does prove that he is your father.
Yes.
Where is my father right now?
Well...the thing is...
Even though we did contact you in America,
we still can't contact the parents.
You still can't make contact?
No, the thing is...
By any chance...does my father not want to meet with me?
I did hear that when the chance to meet comes, they tend to avoid it...
Is that how he is?
I'm sure that's not it.
He even registered you in the missing child database to find you.
I'm sure he would've wanted to see you.
But...
Right now...
What about..right now?
Father...
Where have you been?
You're the resident, you brat.
Where have you been all day?
Do you want to be called a bad child?
I told you there was an urgent matter.
You're that dedicated to work...
but aren't your colleagues even going to come by to pay their respects?
My last name is Hong, and dad's last name is Park.
Why would I want to advertise that at work?
Why would you want to advertise all our family business?
Oh my...someone's going to hear you.
Who is she...to cry like that?
My goodness...
Who is it?
Mom. I said who is that?
You can't recognize her either, right?
That's Park Ha.
It fits you well.
We're not in any situation to be happy about being reunited after 15 years.
For right now, let's take care of the funeral and talk more in detail afterwards.
Yes.
But...
You really don't remember anything?
You were about 9 years old then...
At 9 years old, kids usually know their dad's name and the home address.
How could you not have searched for your dad?
Can you see the scar right here?
They said it was a pretty big scar, but it's gotten a lot smaller now.
They said it was a car accident.
All I remember is being at the hospital for a really long time.
Oh my...so there was an accident.
But where did you get into an accident?
Se Na.
When she went missing, her father and I really thought of so many different things.
But we couldn't find her because she was in a car accident.
Is this the time for you to be talking about that right now?
Right...I think people from the market came to pay their respects.
Hey...take food out to the guests that are arriving.
and organize the shoes, okay?
There's always a shortage of hands because we have no family members.
You really don't remember?
I used to play with you a lot when you were little.
When my mom and your dad would go out to the market to work,
I used to take care of you at home.
I don't remember it at all.
Really?
Okay.
She doesn't even have a good memory.
There's no need, Your Highness.
A murder.
Who would dare murder the Crown Princess within the Palace walls?
Officer Jwa.
If it wasn't murder,
just what other reason would there be that the Crown Princess' body was found drowned to death?
It's murder without a doubt!
For what reason would someone murder the Crown Princess?
There would be no reason for that.
We need to find out that reason.
You know well yourself.
Whenever the Crown Princess can't fall asleep at night,
she would go for a night walk to the pond.
Without a doubt...
She stumbled on something and fell and drowned in the pond.
Please don't allow the Crown Princess
to become the subject of gossip anymore, Your Highness.
Please let this go, Your Highness.
I cannot allow this!
If she took a walk to the pond in the middle of the night,
I'm sure she would've had her attendants with her.
If she fell into the pond, then how was it she wasn't saved?
Chief of Police, Hong Nak Hyun entering.
You may enter.
Your Highness.
The attendant that was with the Crown Princess last night,
we have apprehended her from her hiding place.
Brother-in-law.
What did she say?
Yes, Your Highness.
The Crown Princess couldn't fall asleep last night.
She was looking at the pond while on her walk,
The attendant came back after looking around the scenery for a bit.
But it was after the Crown Princess has already drowned.
This palace attendant was full of fear. She ran away from the palace.
She might as well have killed her.
Your Highness.
I beg your pardon, but the palace attendant... has already died.
How?
How did she die?
She tried to flee when we were bringing her back after capturing her,
and she was slain by the palace capturer.
She's only received the punishment that she deserved, Your Highness.
However,
After speaking to all the Palace officials,
I feel that this will just start trouble and bring a political uprising, Your Highness.
Please do not start any uprising, Your Highness.
Do it.
We are grateful, Your Highness.
Song Man Bo.
22 years old.
Because he was born illegitimately, even though he was brilliant,
he wasn't able to hold an official position.
Since his path has been blocked, he disregarded everything and lived the careless life of a playboy.
Fortune telling, achyranthes, astronomy, geography, mechanics. There's nothing you don't know.
And there's nothing that gets by you.
Is that right?
Although I'm honored...
I'm just a humble citizen.
Last year, you investigated the murder case in Pyongyang of the 3 victims,
and you captured the killer.
Is that right?
There was an incident like that, Your Highness.
There is another murder case.
Woo Yong Sul.
He found and killed the man who killed his mother and defiled his sister.
He killed 7 men who were protecting that killer all with a single blow with his sword.
For what purpose did you learn your swordsman skills?
To protect the people and this country.
I will soon be the country.
Can you protect me?
Do Chi San.
Even though he entered the palace at a young age as a eunuch,
he was kicked out for being too flirty with the palace ladies.
He knows the happenings of men and women,
so not only does he know of everyone's business.
He's known as the best ginseng in Joseon.
There's nothing he doesn't know when it comes to what's going on in the palace,
or within the private walls of high officials.
What are the rumors going around?
Did the Crown Princess accidentally drown in the pond, or was she murdered?
Did she stumble?
Or is it murder?
Song Mon Bo.
You are officially hired as the Royal Librarian.
Do Chi San.
You are officially hired as the Palace eunuch.
Do Yong Sul.
You are officially hired as the royal body guard to the Crown Prince.
That night...
The Princess and I sat and chat around a drink table.
Today was a really nice day.
There wasn't anything different about that day.
I talked to the Princess about the difficulties of what a being a scholar is like.
Ah, before that, our sister-in-law came in to visit us.
She said she solved the riddle that I have given her.
So she came to see us even though the sun has already set for the evening.
What brings you here in the middle of the night?
Your Highness.
I have solved the riddle.
Ah, really?
What is your answer?
My sister-in-law solved the riddle.
After my sister-in-law had left, I fell asleep after having another drink.
When I opened my eyes in the middle of the night,
the Princess was nowhere to be seen.
Your Highness.
Okay...what happened?
Your Highness.
I'm sorry to say this, but if the Princess has ingested any poison,
she could still haved wakled from her chambers to the pond.
It takes the length of that walk for the poison to spread all over the body.
After she arrives,
she would have fallen into the water since the poison overtakes the body.
Your Highness.
I went on a search to find the person that was responsible for making the poison.
Even though I found the one that have made the poison,
he had already been killed.
The poison he normally deals with is arsenic.
Arsenic, you say?
White poisonous powder.
Your Highness.
It's the dried persimmon.
It's the dried persimmon that was on the drink table that night.
The white powder that's on the dried persimmon,
and the white arsenic powder can't be distinguished apart by the naked eye.
You're saying the poison was sprinkled on the dried persimmon?
Your Highness!
-Your Highness! What is it?
Hurry up and tell me what it is!
What I heard was that she was poisoned.
I heard the Crown Princess didn't just die.
I heard something about her being poisoned.
Your Highness.
There is a witness who saw the Crown Princess that night.
What did you say?
Who is it?
Who is that person?
I have found out where he dwells.
Where is it?
Let's go.
Let's go to where he is immediately!
Are you sure this is the place?
Yes, Your Highness.
He said for sure that this was the place.
Your Highness!
Hey, Park Ha.
Yes, Mother.
Don't you think it's pretty impressive that you have your own store in two years of coming back to Korea?
The store is the size of my fingernail.
I'm going to borrow all the money needed to get the business outfitted.
Oh my...my Se Na borrows money to buy shoes and purses.
Can't you just rest since your arm and leg are broken?
Do you really have to work?
You scared me.
If you came, you should've announced that you were here.
Hey. Have you done anything to help when my arm and leg got broken?
You haven't done a thing, but you keep sticking your nose in.
Se Na. If you're busy, you could've called. I could've taken mother home.
What the heck...then you should've called me.
Hurry up Mom, I'm tired. I'm going to bed as soon as I take you home.
I heard you, you brat.
Park Ha.
Finish cleaning up nicely, and go home to get some rest.
Yes.
Come over here, and help me up!
-Get some rest, Mother. Bye Se Na. -Okay.
Hold it right!
Who are you guys?
What are you doing here?

How are we going to bear living 300 years into our future?
Where is this place? What are we doing here?
You there. If you're all done with work, hurry up and leave.
What are all those lights?
Are you guys crazy?
Don¡¯t you think this place is nicer to live than in Joseon?
You can't come here.
Thank you, your highness.
-Tae Yong. -What? He's alive?
She's going to bring him back home.
Princess!
Its' me, Princess. Princess!
I will be take this rooftop room as my chambers,
