a chance... please give me a chance
for the first time in my life...
I have questioned what learning is
for the first time in my life..
for the first time in my life, I met someone who has acknowledged my talents
for the first time in my life, I met someone who has taken my side
please let me have these kind of opportunities
please let me throw questions at this world
and have a chance to dream of a new world..
please allow me to do that
fine...
I won't disclose that you're a girl
but this..
is not to save your life
it's because i can't taint the reputation of sungkyunkwan,
and also,
because I can't dishonor His Majesty's Royal Command
Further, I..
do not intend to keep you at Sungkyunkwan
did you say men and women are not different?
yes
do you think that a girl can compete equally with men?
as a girl who can't even properly hold a bow,
you mean you can compete with the guys
and even become the champion?
if I succeed, would you give me a chance?
if you fail,
I'll order that you be expelled right away and punish you for your arrogance
your brother, Kim Yoon Shik, his name will be removed from the scholar register
so the national law will be established by strick application and
you who've deceived the king and disobeyed the establishment,
shall pay with your death
you will regret your arrogance
and repent for daring to test the difference between a man and a woman
within the walls of Sungkyunkwan,
you're not a girl
furthermore,
no one must know that you're a woman
don't ever forget that's the only way to save yourself and your family
I'll keep it in mind
you have to teach me
I must become a champion at DaeSaRae
is there something wrong?
that thing called miracle
I too need that thing called miracle now
if I didn't have fronze shoulders, I'd be like Jumong
I give up. either the Student President or Lee Seun Jun will be the champion anyway
Confucius said this
"Sa Ja Nam Ja Ji Sa"
archery..
is a man's work
men's work
saying that it's men's work is..
Confucius was simple-minded
that's right, that's right
isn't that right, Daemul?
give it up, give up
as a girl who can't even properly hold a bow,
you mean you can compete with the guys and even become the champion?
you who've deceived the king and disobeyed the establishment,
shall pay with your death
stop.that's enough
oh..the bow has snapped
as a man, you're so weak. why?
you can't do it anymore?
you're going to give up on the DaeSaRae?
you can't give up! Kim Yoon Shik
you have to work harder
there's someone whom I want to make admit defeat
in the presence of the King and all the Officials
he who dirties sungkyunkwan with ideas of political harmony that
knows no political parties and family background,
The King
and some guy who's very similar to this king
so you must come up to the final round
using whatever means available
there must not be a happening where my plan fails because of you
ah...
if you want,
I can still continue to teach you like the last time
that's enough, Student President
will you wait for us?
at the final round
what you taught me earlier,
now it's my time to respond
is that right?
if I became a champion at the DaeSaRae,
will that be a sufficient answer?
champion?
he said champion. is he insane?
then,
you apologize
did you call us a ragtag group that knows no political parties and family background?
for mocking me and my family, apologize
and you'd have to acknowledge that I'm a sungkyunkwan scolar
whom The King personally selected
is arrogance an infectious disease among your roommates?
I must cure that illness
I'll wait
at the final round
a champion who can't even pull the bow correctly?!
I acknowledge that..your reckless bravery..
is that of a champion
do you..
do you think I can do it??
who knows
it will be hard
your shoulder is too weak
the arm used to pull the bowstring is also thin and small
your breathing is unstable too
on top of that, your legs is not strong enough to support your body
however...
if you made your mind to go to the ends to win this competition,
won't there be a way?
what are you doing?
let me downl now! hurry up!
the strength to withstand holding on
the strength to pull the string
all of this is a foundation for your arm
without such foundation,
if you attempt to hold the bow..
you'll just continue to be slighted by the bow
I said to put me down. let me down now!
just do it thirty times
then I'll plant you firmly on the ground even if you want to fly away
no, bingsoo!!!! this precious thing, how did you...
(bing-soo : sherbet, ice flakes with adzuki beans) no, bingsoo!!!! this precious thing, how did you...
it's from my heart
no matter how precious the ice is
does it compare to how much you sweat, training for the DaeSaRea?
now, Jook eat it up
show His Majesty without any regrets
the lives of the Sungkyunkwan scholars, perspiring for this country
however, has Lee Seun Jun gone somewhere?
since a while ago, he has disappeared with the rascal, Daemul
is that true?
this rascal! he has gone to play without practicing?!
it seems so!
then you're saying that he doesn't know that I've specially prepared this?
however, I know of it!
withdraw!
go!
although it is the arm that shoots the arrow
the power to make the arrow flies come from the lower body
this is the breathing technique to increase your lower abdomen strength
depending on your breathing at the instant you pull the string
you can hit the bullseye or miss it
so it's not something you should ever dismiss..
hold up
if it's breath training you're talking about, I've done it everyday since I was born without stopping
what I need to learn right now is..
how to hold the bow, how to hit the bullseye,
and how to become the champion
you don't know this?
it is as if someone who doesn't even know how to read,
wants to become a government official by writing an essay
shooting an arrow
is done by the bow, you think?
then?
it's the person
shooting arrows without your body being the best it can be..
is useless even if you learn how to hold a bow for a hundred days
you've never
ever said anything wrong before?
it seems I have trained too hard
the last lesson is tension
increasing your grip strength
it seems you plan to participate in DaeSaRea
you made a good decision, Geol Oh
mind your own business
what's with the complement
it's a match I've waited for a long time
it would be unfair not to compete in DaeSaRae because of yor habbit of wandering around
for me
and for your precious roommates
don't make such an effort..
I am not a kind of person who is manipulated by you
you know, you, Moon Jae Shin..
don't know what a head-on victory is
you walk around glaring..
a mere street tug
often times, it must be confusing
taht girl-like, Kim Yoon Shik also..
plans to beat me as a rival and become the champion
you must be busy, trying to practice..
you can't lose against that girly boy
since you are the Sungkyunkwan's student body president
a champion?
Daemul, that punk?
Scholar Kim Yoon Shik!!
honestly, at first I didn't know
though it was an accidental encounter
till now, I've learned more about sorrow than happiness
though i was full of tears,
I will bring you only laughter
I must have finally found my other half
my heart is racing like this
found you, my love
the person I've been searching for
I want to share a heated embrace with you
stay still and close your eyes
so I can kiss you on the lips
I love you, it's you who I love
found you
the person I'll keep by my side
though I had kept my heart closed,
I'll give my heart to you
I must have finally found my other half
my heart is racing like this
found you my love
the person I've been searching for
I want to share a heated embrace with you
stay still and close your eyes
so I can kiss you on the lips
I love you, it's you who I love
found you
the person I'll keep by my side
the person who embrace all the painful wounds on my closed heart
I want to love you more and more
for eternity
found you my love
the person I've been searching for
I want to share a heated embrace with you
stay still and close your eyes
so I can kiss you on the lips
thank you
for coming to my side
he wouldn't have yet hit he bullseye, right?
who? Kim Yoon Shik?
he's improved tremendously
who? Kim Yoon Shik?
there are two days left until the DaeSaRae it would be too much for him to hit bullseye, right?
who? Kim Yoon Shik?
he has a strong foundation
hey! you think I'd lose to that punk Kim Yoon Shik?
to that weakly sissy?
scholar Kim Yoon Shik possesses great talent in archery
it took him 5 days to pull a string
he still has a long way to go to hit the bullseye
but he's bearing it
despite being behind the others,
even so, he didn't give up
what greater talent does a person need besides this?
pathetic guy..
sunbae!
foolish punk
even if I handed a bow and arrow to a calf at Banchon, it would do better than you
sunbae!
for guys, like you, who can't do it after trying and trying...
there's only one solution
what is that?
at times like these, alcohol is medicine
a tightening feeling
you don't know this, do you?
a t..tightening feeling, you said?
in archery, you don't give up till the end, but wait..
until the moment you think you're done
that is called a taste of tightening
a taste of tightening
with this condition of your hand, how are you going to make it till the end?
that's why you keep missing the bullseye
what is it for you?
success or pride?
excuse me?
DaeSaRae
why do you want to become a champion?
I wanted to show them
that I can do it. that they can believe in me
I want to show it to myself
in this world, there needs to be at least one person who believes me
did you learn that from Lee Seun Jun?
you speak well
this, I learned from you
so, you're going to regret it if you don't show up
what?
perhaps you don't have the confidence to win?
if so, then don't worry
because I'll take care of everything
sunbae, you just fulfill the head count
please come to the DaeSaRae
I beg you, sunbae
sunbae
have I ever told you?
thank you
pretty impressive
I'll complain you for transforming Kim Yoon Shik who couldn't even hold a bow into a person
the effort was impressive, but my arrow knows no compassion so what do we do?
it won't go easy on you,
so you have to prepare yourself
I hope that arrow is one that knows how to admit defeat
older brother!
Miss!
oh my! I never dreamt that you'd be here too
why are you here?
at the initiation, Lee Seun Jun clearly said that he didn't go to Bukchon's my house
that's the truth
president, there's no way we could've missed him.. with our eyes wide open
it's possible that someone had helped Lee Seun Jun
but president, Lee Seun Jun is the one that is acting strangely
why did he lie that he didn't solve the riddle?
couldn't he have been soaked in urine?
that you'd visit us, even accompanied by your daughter
I am very honored
today I didn't come as the Minister of War, but as a father
as a father of Sungkyunkwan's Student Body President,
I thought I should stop by once as Sungkyunkwan is busy in preparation for the DaeSaRae
Aigoo, here comes Sungkyunkwan's Student Body President!
ah, you resemble your father as you are big and stong
you came without notice, father
when attacking the enemy camp,
a surprise attack is the best
you have a greater chance of winning
if you don't give them the chance to defend
it's strange..it's strange..it's strange!
if you're hiccuping there's no doubt that there's a woman here
but where exactly can the woman be here
in Sungkyunkwan off limits to women?
ah!
there!
oh!
it was because of that woman wasn't it?
what about that woman?
I'm talking about the initiation
the reason why Lee Seun Jun lied that he didn't go to the Minister of War's
he wanted to protect her from being the talk of the guy
a love letter that doesn't sound too trite, but is still friendly
well...
her beauty is worthy for his willingness to fall in a pool of urine
ahh..
I finally came up with a nickname that's perfect for Lee Seun Jun
Ga Rang
as of today, Lee Seun Jun nickname is
Ga Rang
Ga Rang?
yes
it means the best husband material
to the Minister of War's daughter, Lee Seun Jun is the ideal husband candidate
"Ga Rang" really describes him well
here!
Tteok Gal Bi (meatball made by galbi),Juk Tong Bab (steamed rice in the bamboo tube), even precious uhran (fish eggs)!
the best uhran from YOUNG-AHM city
lady Hyoeun is mean. she not only trampled on a man's pure love
but descriminated by food
aish!
this is the tragedy from the birth
what does Lee Seun Jun have that I don't have except coming from prominent family?
just name it one if you can. then I'll forfeit clearly
you can't do it. how is that possible?
you seem to understand my feeling!
handsome face,profound knowledge,fine physique,great personality
how could I name just one thing?
aish!
I heard you were ill. Are you alright now?
how did you find it out?
well,,that...
I heard it from my older brother!
my brother was so worried. he said I had to come and pay you a visit
I really had no choice
you mean
you're here because of the student body president?
fom now on, it would be better if you don't come here
what?
the national law forbids any women from coming to Sungkyunkwan
if we who were nobly born were easily too violate the national law
how can aristocratic families set a good example for people?
then,
take care
I...
I won't come to Sungkyunkwan again
so, next time..
can you come visit me?
with this much strength, I won't be ashamed of in front the scholars tomorrow right?
your long-sought dream...
you'll fulfill it one by one starting tomorrow, Your Majesty
it's also...
it's also the wish of my lifelong friend who gave up his live for me
are you referring to the former Sungkyunkwan professor, Kim Seung Hun?
was it Kim Yoon Shik?
I don't know how I shall repay all my debt to that child
DaeSaRae is tomorrow
you promised to be the champion
I remember clearly
when you can't even hit the bullseye?
now is not too late
if you're to repent of your sin and give up
I'll spare you and your family's lives
I...
I have finally come to stand in front of the target
until I have shot all the arrows given to me,
I have no thoughts of giving up
did you see that?
I..I did it
then..
did you think you couldn't do it?
you already knew that I can do it?
of course
was there anything that didn't work out when Lee Seun Jun got involved?
I caught the greatest substitute exam taker
and make him a Sungkyunkwan scholars
did you already forget that?
a versatile...bear!
I knew it
Ga Rang my foot!
Wang Seo-bang is perfect for you
I'm proud of you, Kim Yoon Shik
I'm proud
I said that you did great
he hit it!
hit what?
bullseye
Daemul, that punk, succeeded
student president..
he hit the bullseye
pretty impressive
but even so, what does that change?
when I...
have you
yes, of course
Kim Yoon Shit hit the bullseye?
hey Byung Choon
you have confidence right?
about what?!
if we are to lose tomorrow
the president is going to kill you
why would we lose?
Kim Yoon Shik got one hit
I have hit the bullseye more than 99 timesso far!
besides, we still have Geol oh
if Geol Oh doesn't show up, it's over for Kim Yoon Shik too
have you arrived, Your Excellency
it's Hong Byuk Seo! capture him!
that rascal!
immediately go and capture him!
immediately!!
are you alright, Your Excellency?
isn't your post..
to protect my safety?
if you had done your duty as Minister of Justice
that shame Hong Byuk Seo
remaining in the capital..
would likely have no happened..
forgive me, Your Excellency
there he is
chase after him!
he can't go far
catch him
he was injured!
it would be hard for him to pick up speed
we must catch him before he goes to Banchon
yes!
capture him! chase after him!
this is Banchon where Sungkyunkwan lies
no officials are allowed in here!
lets go!
Hong Byeok Seo (Red Messenger) is a
Sungkyunkwan scholar
this country, Joseon, is that of Noron party alone
now the truth of the bloodied Geum Deung Ji Sa will be revealed
you will not sit on the throne but on the rack
which daring bastard is it?
someone naive who believes you can change this world
passion to change the world with a mere arrow
our friend here is a youth
Your Excellency!
furthermore,
writing at this level
show that he is most definitely a Sungkyunkwan scholar
if he is a Sungkyunkwan scholar, that means...
tomorrow at the DaeSaRae,
capure Hong Byeok Seo
the DaeSaRae
is the last chance I am giving you, Minister of War
Hong Byeok Seo has entered into our compound again
make sure not to alert the scholars
according to the police, he was hit by arrow and is bleeding heavily..
is Hong Byeok Seo bleeding?
yesterday was some rats. today is wild cats
scholar Moon Jae Shin..
is he spend the night out again?
Moon Jae Shin
Have his scores minus by 5 points
minus 5 points
I have a question
if scholar Moon Jae Shin doesn't come in by tomorrow morning
what will happen to him then?
the purpose of DaeSaRae is to build a sense of togetherness
so it will not be tolerated, if one person doesn't show up
if Moon Jae Shin doesn't come,
Lee Seun Jun
and Kim Yoon Shik
won't be able to participate in DaeSaRae tomorow
he will come
Moon Jae Shin sunbae will definitely be at the DaeSaRae tomorrow
please wait, teacher
I can not wait!!
am I supposed to just sit quietly and wait??
search all the taverns in Banchon and bring back Moon Jae Shin
if not,
move Lee Seun Jun and Kim Yoon Shik into a different team!
My Loard, that..
hey, you are telling me..
that when Left Prime Minister is personally coming to Sungkyunkwan we should show his son just standing around not participating in
we should show his son just standing around not participating in DaeSaRae?
that's the rule
how can you be so insensitive and have no compassion??
think about it some more
they have been standing under the hot sun practicing for days,
until their thumbs were sore
do you want to see their efforts go down the drain?
what do you think about it?
Professor Jung, what do you think?
isn't there still time before the DaeSaRae starts tomorrow?
until then you should give him time
oh!! how can I...
how about we close our eyes and sleep?
the Geol Oh sunbae that I know
does not fit here in Sungkyunkwan
he doesn't abide by the rules and procedures
however...
I do not think him as someone
who would be so irresponsible as to turn another's hoursof sweat
hard work and hopes into nothing
that's why..
that's why I even more worried
this is the facial composite of Hong Byuk Seo
remember his face and his movement
if Hong Byuk Seo is a Sungkyunkwan scholar,
the DaeSaRae tomorrow would be our only chance to catch him
yes, Your Excellency..
officials could not enter Sungkyunkwan...
you guys tomorrow, dressed up as guard and secretly check them understand?
yes!
we have to catch him before the King finds him
if the circumstances turn out unfavorably..
you may take care of him on the spot
the Dae Sa Rae event happens once in the blue moon!
from mourners,
to aged grandmothers,
to even the King at the palace
Sungkyunkwan's Dae Sa Rae that will make you watch at the edge of your seat!
three pennies...three pennies!
Sungkyunkwan's Dae Sa Rae live broadcasting for three pennies!
three pennies..
lets go!
is this not a beautiful day for archery?
Minister, I heard that there was an accident overnight
I apologize, Your Majesty
I'm the one to feel apologetic
how poor it would be..
for the Hong Byuk Seo (Red Messenger)
to come to the Left Prime Minister's house
you speak so humbly, Your Majesty
Minister of War
please hurry the business of capturing Hong Byok Seo
I am ashamed to face Left Prime Minister
I...
will give my all to follow your order, Your Majesty
however, today is an exception
what do you mean?
I intend to leave behind all the troubles here
you too...
do that for today
His Majesty is going to arriving soon
if scholar Moon Jae Shin doesn't arrive by then
then Lee Seun Jun and Kim Yoon Shik will be considered disqualified
by default
as by rules,
you two will disqualified in the Dae Sa Rae
I guess it's over for the Dae Sa Rae
you couldn't even capture the heart of your roommate
political harmony...my foot
since Geol Oh isn't coming
it's looks like you guys are disqualified by default
there is
still time before the Dae Sa Rae starts
presenting His Majesty!
Your Majesty..
that you would visit my humble Sungkyunkwan
I'd have no other wishes even if I were to die today
it was your Sungkyunkwan?
until now, I thought it was my Sungkyunkwan
pardon?
Your Majesty!
I am deserving of death
it was a joke, Chancellor
is there not another owner of Sungkyunkwan?
pardon?
who?
now the Dae Sa Rae will begin,
this will be the last roll call
for those that are not in attendance and their roommates
will not able to participate in Dae Sa Rae
Ha In Soo, Im Byung Choon, Kang Moo
yes we are here!
Baek Jae Chul, Kim Jong Min, Lee Jung soo
yes we are here!
Kim Woo Tak, Bae Hae Won, Ahn Do Hyun
yes we are here!
take this!
the first room in the middle
Hong Soo Chul, Lee Jae Shik, Kimm Yoo Juk
yes we are here!
the next is center room 2
search for Hong Byuk Seo secretly
even the soldiers and the guard must not know of it
we mus not let the King get his hands on Hong Byok Suh
if the circumstance is unfavourable,
don't forget to get rid (kill) him without anyone knowing
the second room in the middle, Lee Seun Jun!
yes!
Kim Yoon Shik
Yes
Moon Jae Shin
Moon Jae Shin...
is scholar Moon Jae Shin of the second room in the middle not in attendance?
a rule is a rule
because of scholar Moon Jae Shin's absence, the second room in the middle
the both of you can't participate in Dae Sa Rae
due to Moon Jae Shin absence..
both his roommates, Lee Seun Jun and Kim Yoon Shik
are disqualified
Geol Oh...
what is this...
it seems that you are greatly disappointed
I too am disappointed that you two won't competing
I want to break your political harmony in front of the King
so that the King will no longer dream of...
having illusion of political harmony
my goal is not you guys
but The King...
you'd better no longer talk of political harmony and concord,
those ridiculous wordplay
the one who showed that it was impossible..
were you guys
who said that it was impossible?
Sunbae!
hey, Daemul!
I came to fill in my spot
amazing dispaly shown by the center room 2
Scholar Lee Seun Jun, Kim Yoon Shik, and Moon Jae Shin
however the president's team is showing to be strong opponent and take in the lead
bring me the championship
he is making the audience crazy
Jalgeum Quartet..
Sunbae...
Sunbae..
cheers!!!
you kept your promise
cowardly jerk!
stop being so pathetic! be a man!
take off your clothes..
secretive spot?
this is not a man's desire to see a naked woman
it's just the mentality of a scholar (meaning "wanting to learn the truth")
where are you going?
I have to find him..
