Gu Am Heo Joon
[Episode 19]
Snake's beard.
It protects the heart, cools the lungs and calms the nerves.
And it stabilizes the pulse.
We're back.
- Let me see them. - Yes, sir.
What is this?
You all went to pick herbs together, but how come you have so little?
I'm still not familiar with the mountains, so...
Is that the best excuse you can come up with?
I made you an herb collector early. Shouldn't you work twice as hard?
You should quit if you can't do any better.
Why is it so loud here?
What's the problem?
Heo Jun just fooled around up in the mountain.
So he's being scolded by Master Do-ji.
Who picked these herbs?
I did, sir.
If you are picking herbs, you must pick it with care like this.
But it is too little to be of any use.
See how he picked these without hurting even the smallest root?
What is the good in bringing back lots of damaged herbs?
Nothing is more important that devotion.
Did you see the way Master Do-ji glared at Heo Jun?
I was gonna mention that. Something big is gonna go down.
We might be rid of Heo Jun without doing anything.
I don't know how he got on Master Do-ji's bad side,
but there was major hatred in his glare.
That's enough. Heo Jun never did anything to you guys.
Are you being serious?
Taking his side?
Oh, the food's here.
Eat up.
Jeez, this is all we get after working our fingers to the bone?
We're not rabbits here. Where's the meat?
Meat? Don't make me laugh.
What did you do to deserve meat?
I happen to think I'm hilarious!
She plays hard to get. Drives me crazy.
Are you interested in Yu-wol?
I sure am. I've got dibs on her, got it?
Jeez.
Jun.
We're ready to move.
Yeah? I'll ask Mr. Lim if I can take some time off.
Let's go.
Wipe your drool, girl.
You surprised me.
Pull yourself together.
At least I'm not chasing someone I can't have.
You...!
Yang-tae, is it heavy?
I'm fine, Jun.
What do you think, Milady? Do you like the house?
It's great. You've worked hard.
You must be hungry. I'll prepare dinner for you.
I will make the fire in the kitchen.
I'm sorry the house is so shabby.
When my father and I were exiled after he was framed for treason,
we lived in a hut that was about to collapse.
It was so cold inside and we had no fire.
I remember how much I wept.
We have a fence to block the winds and a roof to block the rain.
And I have you beside me. This place is not shabby.
You trust and love me so deeply. I will never disappoint you.
Wait and see, I'll become a doctor and take care of you and mother.
Please don't worry about giving me a comfortable life.
I want you to become a doctor who surpasses Doctor Yu.
No. He is someone I can never surpass.
Don't think that way. Become the best in the country.
That is the only way you can redeem your painful past.
And I'll assist you at all costs as your devoted wife.
What are you thinking?
Regarding what?
Ye-jin is of age to get married.
You consider her your daughter-in-law?
I would nothing more than for her to accept Do-ji.
I understand how you feel, but she can do better.
Where to set my trap?
Hmm.
Taste this.
How is it?
Slightly sweet. Not bad.
Boar feces.
What?
Passed by not too long ago. This is good.
It's a good spot.
The spear is for emergencies. You hunt using these traps.
Open it and hook it here.
Then cover it up. It can catch a boar.
There are a lot of beasts in this area. Tigers show up during the day.
Tigers?
They jump out of nowhere. Stay on your toes.
Let's go.
Come on.
What's that?
What is it?
What happened to it?
Did a tiger do this?
No, not even a seasoned butcher would hack it open like that.
Who did it then?
Nothing can, unless it was a fearsome demon.
Il-seo, let's go down.
Go down? Are you crazy?
I have to find out who did this. I must make it suffer!
Move!
Il-seo, wait for me!
Yang-tae.
Jeez.
Why are you so startled?
You scared me, Jun!
Do you really think a demon did it?
This is no laughing matter.
If you saw it for yourself, you wouldn't laugh.
What is going on?
I have been a hunter for 10 years, but I've never seen anything like it.
It was gutted very skillfully.
Il-seo, look over there.
Huh?
Who's that?
Let's go have a look.
Aw, man.
Hold on, that's where I laid my trap.
He looks like a ghost. Let us just go down.
Will you shut up?
I'm out of here.
Let's go.
Is he some sort of a magician? He is so fast.
Where did he go?
East, west, south, north. He's gone.
He couldn't have gone far. Let us split up.
I'll go up, you go down.
Be careful.
Jeez.
Where the heck did he go?
This way, eh?
Rested enough? Now get out of here.
Who are you?
Why are you gutting animals?
What is it to you?
Are you a doctor?
I saw your books.
I heard that the Classic of Herbal Medicine is extremely rare.
Seeing that you have such a precious book...
Leave!
I want to know why. I won't leave until you tell me.
You want payment for the dead animals?
The beasts of Mt. Jiri don't belong to you.
What's it to you what I do with them?
Take your bag and get out!
Since you know about the book, I suppose you are studying medicine.
You must have a pathetic teacher. Don't go around acting like a doctor.
How dare you to speak of my teacher that way?
I can tell by the way you unearthed all the herbs from their roots.
Some herbs are used for their roots, others like Ephedra for their stems.
Do you want the Ephedra to disappear from this mountain?
You must know what part of the herb is needed before you pick it.
If you don't treat herbs properly, you don't deserve to be a doctor.
Now get out!
Help, Doctor!
That part is off limits!
Where did Yeong-dal go?
He left on Master Do-ji's errand.
That pathetic fool.
What's wrong?
He's been here for quite a while,
But he still can't tell bellflowers from bonnet bellflowers.
That can't be true.
So you think I'm making this up?
I got chewed out for making the tonic with the wrong ingredients.
You know that Yeong-dal can't read.
That's why he can't tell even if the names are written down.
Not unless he eats them.
Don't laugh. You're no better than him.
We know what we're supposed to know.
Oh, yeah? Then what are bellflowers good for?
Bellflowers... uh...
Well?
No idea.
This is ridiculous.
Don't ever tell people that you work in Doctor Yu's clinic.
How about you?
Sir?
It's used for asthma, diabetes, and palsy.
What about bonnet bellflowers?
It strengthens the lungs and kidneys and cures pus and small tumors.
Did you hear that? Pathetic fools...
Darn it.
Screw these bellflowers.
I'm impressed! How did you know all that?
I overheard things when I worked in the patients' quarters.
Overheard things?
Ma'am! Ma'am!
Lady Oh wants you and me to come to her house.
What for?
She needs extra hands at the clinic. She says to bring your daughter-in-law.
I'll be there shortly. Go ahead.
Please hurry.
It will take forever to turn this into a farm.
What are you going to do? Are you coming?
If you're going to talk back to her, don't come.
No, Mother. I'll go with you.
How unexpected.
This isn't a place for a high-nosed noble lady like you.
Don't be arrogant with me again, or I'll kick your husband out.
Why aren't you answering me?
I understand, Milady.
I need you to prepare some food with my maid.
Yes, Milady.
And tell your daughter-in-law to wash the patients' laundry.
Yes, Milady.
The blankets have blood and urine all over them.
Wash them clean.
Yes, Milady.
Well, lead the way.
We must visit Sir Kim in Oshigol to discuss Do-ji's marriage.
Yes, Milady.
Good luck.
What are you waiting for? Get to work.
Yu-wol, bring all the dirty blankets from the patients' quarters!
Yes, ma'am. Come with me.
Out of the way!
Wait your turn.
Will you be quiet over there?
Let me see your number.
Won't get to see the doctor today with that number.
He's barely alive. We can't wait.
There is always a way. Let's talk in private.
Go wait, I'll make sure he's treated today.
Excuse me.
Can we talk?
What's the matter?
Help us get ahead.
We won't be able to see the doctor with this number today.
Help me out.
What's his condition?
He has asthma.
Then it's not urgent. Wait for your turn to come up.
What's this? Are you trying to bribe me?
I can't accept.
Is it too little? That's all I have.
Please...
No. Take this back. This isn't right.
How much more do you want from me?
What's all this commotion?
I can't believe this.
So what if he's a good doctor? He's nothing but a thief!
What do you mean?
If we want to see the doctor sooner, we must pay.
Isn't that as bad as stealing?
What do you mean?
Don't you know that we have to bribe your people to get treated?
Even the children know that.
Did he ask you to bribe him?
No, I didn't.
Then why are you holding money?
You want to become a doctor, yet you take money from poor patients?
You're nothing but an herb picker, yet you are disgracing my father.
Sir...
How can you disgrace me after what I did for you?
No, sir. You have it all wrong!
Shut up!
Do-ji, please hear him out first.
Hear him out? Didn't you see what he did?
Why should I listen to his excuses?
It's partly your fault that he's so arrogant.
There are rules for everything here. But you kept on pampering him.
He's an immature punk. But you gave him books to study.
Go back to carrying wate, and running errands.
Stop studying medicine until I say otherwise.
Don't come anywhere near the patients.
Sir...
If you disobey me, you will be kicked out of the clinic!

I'd quit if I were shamed like that. He has no spite in him.
My name is Heo Jun. I want to learn medicine from you.
I have feelings for someone else.
Who is it?
Ye-jin.
Are you out of your mind?
Why would you marry someone beneath you?
Why are you clinging to me and not your teacher?
Your son was caught accepting bribes and got on Master Do-ji's bad side.
He's not even an herb collector anymore.
Find out what Jun's been up to.
Long time.
I brought liquor with me.
If you want to learn medicine, first know the human body.
