Gu Am Heo Joon
[Episode 20]
Go back to carrying water, 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!
Why are you outside?
It is very late. Did you eat dinner?
Yes. Master Do-ji must like me a lot.
He had promoted me to the job of collecting herbs.
And today he even bought me food and drinks.
You must be tired. Let us go inside.
Alright. It's getting colder.
Let's go in.
I told you Master Do-ji would teach the punk a lesson.
It makes me feel so satisfied.
He was acting so high and mighty, but look what he got caught with.
He's a worthless punk.
But you must be all careful.
You're the ones who took money from people and the patients.
This thing might get out and who knows what will happen?
Keep your mouth shut.
What?
Wrap it up and gather at the gisaeng house.
What's the occasion?
Master Do-ji is going to treat us to drinks.
We're going to drink with pretty girls tonight.
Think Ae-rang will let me cozy up...
If you're done, let's go.
Let's go and have a good time with gisaeng girls!
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.
Sir! Sir, are you home?
Sir, are you inside?
Sir.
Sir! Sir!
Sir.
My name is Heo Jun. I need to talk to you, sir.
Sir.
Sir!
Sir! Sir!
Please allow me a moment!
I have nothing to say to you. Get lost!
My name is Heo Jun. I would like to learn medicine from you.
Please take me in as your apprentice.
Fool. Just take a look at me.
Do I look like I can teach you? Go away.
Sir! Sir!
Sir!
Did you pick a lot of spring greens?
What vibrant colors. They'll be delicious when cooked.
Do you want some?
No, thanks. You shouldn't be concerned for me.
Eat the greens and stay strong.
Stay strong?
I can't tell you. My husband will be angry I gossiped.
Haman.
I really shouldn't say.
Well, Master Do-ji caught your son accepting bribes from the patients.
He's been demoted from being an herb collector.
Is this true?
Ever see me lie?
Do you know that Jun was accused at the clinic?
Yes.
Did he really take money from patients?
That can never be true.
It must have been a misunderstanding, or he could have been framed.
What did Jun say?
I pretended that I knew nothing about what happened.
How could you not say a word as his wife?
I wanted to give him some space.
He has set a high goal for himself and will encounter many jealous people.
We'd better not raise this matter before him for his own sake.
Oh, dear...
Sir, it's Heo Jun.
Sir, please teach me. Please take me in.
Sir! Sir!
Sir!
Sir, please accept me as your apprentice!
What about your mighty teacher?
I'm a lunatic who goes around cutting beasts open in the mountain.
I don't know anything about medicine. Go away!
You have already taught me something very valuable.
Even to my ignorant eyes, I was able to see what a great doctor you are.
Please take me in.
Crazy fool.
I don't want to talk. Get out of here!
Sir! Sir!
Isn't that...?
What's he doing here?
Don't be so stubborn. It's not going to change anything.
Just get lost!
How dare you come in here?
It's you!
You still look like a crazy old man. I thought you might want a drink.
More like you want some of my meat!
Here you go!
I will be gone for a few days.
Why? Did something happen?
I am going to Jinju. It is the anniversary of my father's death.
Please take us with you.
I can't stand being around patients all day.
Take good care of them while I'm gone.
- Yes, ma'am. - Yes, ma'am.
What is it?
I came to discuss Do-ji's marriage with you.
It's Do-ji.
Yes, come in.
I have been looking for Do-ji's bride.
Lord Kim and his wife want their daughter to marry Do-ji.
Their family is poor now, but they come from a noble background.
And their daughter is sweet and pretty.
I think he should marry the girl as soon as possible.
Mother.
Lord Kim wants to hurry the marriage. What do you think?
Mother, I do not want to get married. Please do not bring up this matter.
You are already old enough to get married.
I have a girl I have loved for a long time.
Who? Who is she?
It is Ye-jin.
What?
Are you out of your mind? Why would you marry someone like her?
No, it can never be.
Mother.
Never bring up this up again.
I will never accept her as my daughter-in-law.
Mother, please understand my feelings. Please allow me to marry Ye-jin.
Why are you just listening to all of this?
Say something so Do-ji can understand what I'm saying.
If you feel that way and Ye-jin agrees,
I think you two should get married.
What?
No, that can never happen. She's an orphan.
How can I take her as my daughter-in-law?
I won't permit this marriage. Not as long as I live.
Where is Heo Jun?
He did something shameful, so I demoted him to carrying water.
What did he do?
He took bribes from the patients.
Are you sure about this?
Yes, I saw it with my own eyes.
Let us check on the patients.
What a stubborn fool you are. You may come in.
This is musk, it's as precious as ox bezoar or bear's gall.
It's more expensive than gold.
Do you use rats for medicine?
Yes. This is a male rat.
Its meat, gallbladder, eyes, legs, tails and bones. Everything has its use.
What's that?
That is deer penis.
This is from a dog, cow, wild boar.
And these are penises from badgers. It'll boost your stamina--
How embarrassing...
Milady, what brings you here?
I need to talk to you.
Ma'am?
I didn't know anything about it.
It's my first time hearing it.
So where does he go?
I don't know.
He goes out every night and comes back early in the morning.
I have no idea where he's going. And he won't tell me.
Could it be that he lost his mind after being chewed out by Do-ji?
That's ridiculous.
So he didn't tell Lady Da-hee either?
I want you to find out what he's up to, please.
- Okay. - Okay.
What are the symptoms?
The pit of his stomach is in severe pain. He can't eat or drink.
His neck is stiff. It seems he has "chest congestion."
Tell me about chest congestion.
Symptoms are divided into severe congestion, minor congestion,
congestion with fever, congestion with dry mouth,
congestion with sweat, and congestion with shortness of breath.
There are rules when treating a patient with chest congestion.
You must distinguish between chronic and recent congestion.
In the early stages of congestion, use warm medicine.
But don't use warm medicine for chronic congestion.
If you use ginseng or white atractylodes, the pain will increase.
I'll keep that in mind, Father.
Perform acupuncture.
Yes.
I'm done, sir.
Good job. You can go home.
Yes, sir.
Most guys would give up after all that humiliation.
Doesn't the fellow have any pride?
This is the only path. Where did he go?
Over there.
Yikes!
Jun.
Did you know we were following you?
What are you doing here?
That's what we want to ask you. Why are you roaming the mountains?
I asked you what you were doing here!
Don't give us that attitude. You think we like following you?
Your mother asked us to tail you.
She is worried to death. Where are you going anyway?
You have nothing to worry about. You should just go back.
Jun!
I said, go back!
Let's get out of here. Let's go!
Jun.
Don't worry about me. Go home.
Everyone is born with the skills for healing.
When a thorn is in your finger, you know you must pull it out.
When your body aches, you rub yourself.
When you eat bad food, you vomit.
You must first know the human body.
Do you know that the human body resembles the universe?
The origin of life is the same as the origin of the universe.
That is why a person's head is round. Your feet resemble the ground.
Just as there are four seasons, people have four limbs.
There are five elements, and humans have five organs.
There are six poles in the universe, and humans have six bowels.
There are nine points in the universe, and we have nine body openings.
The day is divided by 12 hours, and we have 12 energy points.
There are 24 seasons, and there are 24 changes in humans.
There are 365 days in a year, and humans have 365 joints.
The mind must be under control to treat disease.
Patients must let go of negative thoughts and leave the body in peace.
If one's mind merges with the universe, one will find peace and health.
Has he split a person's stomach?
No, that's why he splits beasts instead.
I feel bad that I'm so happy while I'm making you suffer.
I've never been happier in my entire life.
Perform acupuncture.
Me?
What can you do?
So many years here, and you can't perform acupuncture?
I found the perfect husband.
Who is it?
But...
Who cares of his flaws? She should be grateful.
I am not interested in marriage.
I saw the doctor suck out bloody pus with his mouth.
I think I finally understand true empathy.
