LAHEE (Princess of Nakrang)
SUYANG HALL JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG l was waiting for Puku...
to call me again.
JAMYUNG (Puku) l called Boruk.
PRlNCE HODONG
He was circling the palace, looking foryou.
lt's the message Boruk brought.
l, KlNG DAEMUSHlN, ORDER YOU TO DESTROYJAMYUNGGO.
Read it to me.
Since l can't read, you read it to me.
Father... has taken ill since he saw Jamyunggo.
Since l'm still his son, he sent the message.
Do you want...
Nakrang that badly?
You set the whole thing up with King Daemushin to
deceive the people of Nakrang?
You were going to deceive your bride on the night
of your wedding, and tearJamyunggo?
l'll take this to the king.
No.
You tried to kill me twice.
You turned me overto Wang Hol, and when l sought asylum...
Don't let anyone else do it.
Kill me with your own hands.
You and l...
This was already predicted.
l won't run from it.
What are you doing here at this hour?
WANG HOL You should be in your wedding chamber.
l'm looking for my husband, who should be in the chamber.
ls that sword...
for Hodong orthe priestess?
She calls herself the priestess of Nakrang and deceives people.
And she lured my husband out on our wedding night.
l'll kill that lowly tramp.
Then you cannot go in.
Why not?
Because the priestess is my sisterJamyung?
Then why are you looking foryour sister
with a sword in your hand?
Because she's my sister! Because she's Jamyung!
l can't forgive her even if it means killing my sister.
Do you have to have everyone love and admire you?
Do you have to have everything?
Can't you love him from a distance?
Why has Nakrang become so important to you?
Why must you love the crown princess who loathes you?
Answer me.
lt kills me to be kept in dark from you.
Answer me!
Because she's my sister.
What did you say?
Because she's my sister.
Because l'm Jamyung, the first queen's daughter.
Because my father is the King of Nakrang.
You are...
King Choi Li's daughter?
Do you now understand why l can't live as your Puku?
You're my sister-in-law?
This is...
This is a bunch of bull!
Why must the priestess yield everything to you?
Why is it herfault that Hodong loves her?
Uncle!
Uncle...
By any chance...
You... Jamyung...
Do you...?
She's wretched.
That wretched tramp is lucky.
The priestess once said this to Prince Hodong.
She weighed Prince Hodong on the scale in her heart,
and he was as heavy as a mountain.
He weighs heavierthan the king, the queen,
and all the people of Nakrang,
but it's herfate that she can't choose him.
Please understand her pain and go back to your chamber.
The prince and you...
Maybe we're just poor souls, including myself,
but we can't be in greater pain than Princess Jamyung.
Please go back.
Yes, l want Nakrang
because l want to become the King of Goguryeo,
but also because l want to have you back.
Your reality is Princess Lahee. lt can't be me.
Puku.
Your Puku no longer exists. l'm Jamyung of Nakrang.
Yes, Jamyung.
You're a princess of Nakrang. Lahee's sister.
That's another reason why Goguryeo can't befriend Nakrang.
Unless l destroy Nakrang, l cannot have you.
l promised to forgive Jamyung three times.
This is the last time.
There will be no next time.
lf she hurts my pride again, she will die.
MO YANGHAE
KlNG DAEMUSHlN'S CHAMBER GUKNAE PALACE, GOGURYEO Did Hodong tearJamyunggo?
CHU BAL SO There was no such report from our spy in Jinyang Palace.
KlNG DAEMUSHlN
HWAEJUNGGWAN JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG l'll go to Guknae Palace.
No, l think Chulsang should go. No one will know him.
Yes.
This is my message to the king.
l must go to Goguryeo to conquer Nakrang.
Ask him to summon the crown princess and me
to Guknae Palace.
Yes, Your Highness.
Don't return and and wait for me in Guknae Palace.
Yes, sir.
CHULSANG But how can l cross the border?
The sun is already up.
You're a lazy bride.
Wake up. We should offer our morning greetings.
Lahee.
l'm not a person who can share.
Just as there is one of me,
there is only one crown princess of Nakrang,
and there is only one of you.
l can't share any of them with Puku.
l went to the shrine because...
Don't!
l won't believe you so don't say anything.
l'll drive myself crazy trying to figure out if
you're lying to me or not!
l realized there is something that lasts longerthan love.
lt's the habit of love, memories of love...
l don't want to hurt you, but...
Those habits, those memories...
lt might take a long time for me to lose them.
Lahee, you're my first woman and my wife.
l'll wait foryou outside.
Get ready.
Don't ever hurt my pride again.
lt just makes me hate Puku more, not you.
Good morning, Your Majesty.
CHOl Ll'S OFFlCE JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG
My son-in-law is looking very handsome.
Father.
CHOl Ll l must've embarrassed you.
MO HASO Don't tease them.
Did you have a nice dream?
l had a restful night, thanks to you.
WANG JA-SlL Now that you're wed,
you must shape up and go back to your duties.
You're right, Your Majesty.
And l have something to tell you on the subject, Father.
What is it?
Sit down. Let's sit down and talk.
You too.
Your Majesty, the priestess is here.
l need to talk to you about Jamyunggo, Your Majesty.
Why don't you sit down?
We need to increase the number of soldiers guarding Jamyunggo.
Why? ls someone trying to destroy Jamyunggo?
You cannot speak in the prince's presence?
Goguryeo has suffered great losses in Mukbang and Eunpo,
and the King of Goguryeo has seen Jamyunggo himself.
He'll try anything to destroy Jamyunggo.
General, increase the number of guards,
and protect Jamyunggo with your life.
Yes, Your Majesty.
And no one else will be allowed to enterthe temple
besides the king, the great general and myself.
Please declare that anyone who enters the temple
will be killed on the spot.
Only the king, the great general and the priestess?
You mean, l, the Crown Princess of Nakrang,
and the prince can't enter either?
You'll kill us?
Forgive me, but yes.
Neitherthe crown princess northe prince can enter.
Father, the priestess has gone too far.
How dare she put us below the great general?
The priestess is the guardian of Jamyunggo.
Her will is the will of Dangun.
You said you have something to tell me?
Yes.
The great general has stationed my troops from Jolbon
in four borders.
l want to inspect them to see
if they're getting along with the Nakrang troops.
Will you go in person?
No, since Chulsang is their leader, l'll send him to Mukbang.
SOUTH GATE, GUKNAE PALACE Stop!
SOUTH GATE, GUKNAE PALACE
Get him!
Let me go.
WU NARU
YANGDEOK
SONG MAESEOLSU'S CHAMBER GUKNAE PALACE, GOGURYEO He's Chulsang, a captain from Jolbon.
So why did would he return when only death waits for him?
lt's not as if he had a good life in Goguryeo.
He must've missed Goguryeo after being away.
SONG MAESEOLSU lt can't be that simple.
Find out what's going on.
The king summoned him to question him himself.
That's why l need you to go find out.
But no one is allowed except the minister and Hadeok.
Something is going on.
lt's as if a venomous snake is waiting to strike me.
Yangdeok, why am l so nervous?
You're a soldier from Nakrang?
My father was Ta Seungchu, who served Prince Haemyung
in Jolbon, and l'm Chulsang, who serves Prince Hodong.
Ta Seungchu, he's the warrior who killed himself
when my brother died.
Yes, l knew yourfather well.
You're most gracious, Your Majesty.
Why did Hodong send you?
He wants to come back
to Goguryeo so that he may attack Nakrang.
He requests that you summon the prince and
his wife to Guknae Palace.
Along with Lahee?
EUL DUJl
Brother, you have to be strong.
You're still too young to be ill.
CHOl Ll'S OFFlCE JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG The King of Goguryeo is seriously ill.
He has been bedridden for days, and shows no sign of recovery.
He was a mighty warrior.
Why did he get sick so suddenly?
lt's said that he's taken ill since
his invincible army was massacred in Mukbang.
Shouldn't the prince and the crown princess pay him a visit?
Although they've drifted apart, he's still the prince's father.
l'm afraid the people will chide the prince and
the crown princess if they don't visit him before the king dies.
l disagree.
Why?
The crown princess had been held hostage in Goguryeo palace.
And the prince's life will be in danger in Goguryeo.
We can't send them to our enemy state.
The second queen is right.
We'll send an envoy with ginseng, bear gallbladders,
and pearls instead.
Did you know that Chulsang returned to Goguryeo?
Chulsang only served me forthree years.
l'm not too surprised that
he betrayed me and went back to Goguryeo.
Do you think it's that simple to disobey one's master?
Well... l guess l'm not a virtuous master.
What good was making him a captain when you held him
captive in the palace without any underlings?
He probably couldn't stand the mistreatment here.
l...
don't think l can last much longer.
Your Majesty, you shouldn't be so weak.
Your Majesty, even this old man is still holding strong.
l know.
l hope you'll die before l do.
But we can't die in the order we were born...
SONG OKGU
Forgive me for saying this,
but if you sense yourtime is coming to an end,
there are things you must settle forthe sake of Goguryeo.
Chief. What are you saying?
That's why l begged for forgiveness first.
But you must do what needs to be done before your passing.
And what is that?
DAESUCHON King Daemushin's grave The king's grave is already built in Daesuchon.
And the funeral ritual has been prepared as well.
Chief.
But the most important thing is to name your successor.
lf you leave Goguryeo in such a state,
it'll be thrown into confusion.
You must name Prince Haeaewu crown prince and
strengthen the kingdom.
You make me laugh.
Thank you for arranging my funeral.
You're most gracious, Your Majesty.
l want to send a letterto Choi Li.
Eul Duji and Chu Balso will go to Nakrang as envoys.
You'll send envoys to Nakrang?
Before l die...
l want to see Hodong forthe last time.
Why would he summon Hodong all of a sudden?
Does he want to make Hodong crown prince?
He said he wishes to see him one last time before he dies.
Father.
Hodong turned his back on Goguryeo.
The five tribes won't support him.
Muhyul has gotten weak on his deathbed.
Let's just watch and see.
l must concentrate on training.
We must attack Goguryeo the day Father passes and
Haeaewu becomes king.
The day you cross the Eunpo border with Nakrang troops,
l'll be there next to you.
l appreciate the thought.
Your Highness, you must go to the king's chamber now.
What is it?
DO SUGl Envoys have arrived from Guknae Palace.
The King of Goguryeo is on his deathbed.
l have taken ill since l saw
Sim Bu / Heart Nakrang's Jamyunggo last winter.
l took the pearl powderyou sent me,
but my illness has taken its toll, and my life is like that
of an icicle on a spring day.
l am ready to go to my grave and join my ancestors, but...
l have one regret.
l have let go of all obsessions
HAEAEWU and worldly emotions,
but l can't sever my attachment to my son.
King of Nakrang, please take pity on the father
who barely holds on to his last breath
in the hope of seeing his son, and allow me to see my son
Hodong and my daughter-in-law before l die.
That is the end of the letter.
He told me to inform you that he most regrets
holding Princess Nakrang hostage in the past,
and that he promises the prince and the crown princess's safety.
What do you think, Prince?
l do wish to pay my last respects to the King of Goguryeo,
who brought me into this world,
but l'll abide by your decision.
Haeaewu will become king when the current king passes.
Haeaewu has only just started walking.
Goguryeo will be thrown into confusion.
l'll go to Guknae Palace and spy on the current situation.
Then why don't you leave the crown princess here
and go by yourself?
l can't do that, Mother.
l can guarantee his safety only when l go with him.
He'll be in danger if he goes alone.
SUYOUNG HALL, JlNYANG PALACE
-We'll leave now. -We're ready to leave.
Deliver my letterto the King of Goguryeo.
Yes, Father.
You must be careful.
Yes.
Prince, we have to eventually see our
parents off someday.
lt'll be more painful to bid farewell as you had hard
feelings toward yourfather, but stay strong.
You should be grateful forthis chance to reconcile with him.
Yes, Mother.
Don't try to kill such kind people with your own hands.
A man has his priorities.
To me, the important people are you and my father.
Don't demand anything else of me.
EUNPO GATE, NAKRANG
l'll see you off here.
Thank you.
Thank you, General.
GUKNAE PALACE, GOGURYEO
lsn't that Prince Hodong?
SUYANG HALL Hodong's old chamber
Nothing has changed since l left forJolbon.
They kept the forsaken prince's chamber so clean...
They must've cleaned it for our visit.
Or maybe it's a sign that Father hasn't forgotten me.
The king is waiting foryou.
All right.
Father.
Father, your daughter-in-law Lahee offers her greetings.
Welcome, Your Highnesses.
You are...
You came.
Father...
l heard you were gravely ill.
l feel much better now that l see my beautiful daughter-in-law.
Welcome.
Father, l've finally come back.
Welcome back.
Do you know why l asked you to come?
l'm trying to comprehend the reason.
l'll show you the answer. Let's go.
l'll show my daughter-in-law the greatness of Goguryeo.
There's something l must do first.
TAECHU lt's the list of Nakrang spies in the palace.
Your Majesty, l, Chulsang, will seek them out and behead them.
He was on his deathbed until this morning!
Did you call for me, Your Majesty?
Where did the king go?
He's gone to Winaam with Prince Hodong and his wife.
He'll camp out tonight, and inspect the land and
the troops of Goguryeo from Paesu to the Majasu River.
Send a messengerto the Biryuna tribe and summon my father.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Forgive me, Your Majesty,
but no one is to leave your chamber.
Officer, did you deceive me with the king and Hodong?
All this time?
l'll go myself.
l can't kill my innocent servants.
l'll personally go see my father.
Your Majesty, the king left a message foryou,
in case you wished to leave the palace.
ls the Biryuna tribe more important than Haeaewu?
as the daughter of the Biryuna tribe?
Will you live as Haeaewu's mother or
Don't cry.
l want to play with Father. l want to go outside.
l said don't cry!
You'll scare the prince.
lt's a matter of life and death.
lt's either Hodong's life oryour mother's.
Your mother is standing on the edge of a cliff,
and you're throwing a tantrum?
Prince...
GOGURYEO COUNTRYSlDE
What do you think?
lsn't Goguryeo vast?
lsn't it vast and strong?
Why did you bring me here?
You were preoccupied with silly thoughts instead of
taking in the sights.
Yes, Goguryeo is vast and barren.
And the troops look strong and violent.
lf you have shown me everything,
then tell me why you brought me here.
Goguryeo has become a great kingdom in less than
a hundred years since my great grandfather
King Dongmyeongseong founded Goguryeo.
King Yurimyeong
YANGMAEK/ Country situated above Manchuria conquered Yangmaek,
and my father upheld my grandfather's wish,
and annexed Hangin and Dongbuyeo.
And after he succeeded the throne,
he conquered Gaema and Guda.
Why are you telling me this?
Be it Goguryeo or Nakrang,
one must absorb the other to go up against Han.
l'll now attack Nakrang.
And Hodong will lead the attack.
lf you want Hodong to live, and you yourself want to live,
then destroy Jamyunggo.
You're the crown princess of Nakrang.
You must be able to read the state of things.
What l read is your cowardly heart.
l'm not trying to destroy Nakrang. l'm trying to save it.
And what does that supposed to mean?
You'll attack Nakrang in orderto save it?
As you said, Goguryeo is strong but violent.
We're cruel. lf we weren't cruel,
we couldn't have become such a strong kingdom.
So you'll cruelly attack Nakrang?
We didn't make slaves of the people of the
countries that gave in willingly.
Their kings were made nobles of Goguryeo
and allowed to live among their people.
Those who went up against Goguryeo disappeared.
Their kings lost their lives,
and their people were made into slaves.
Lahee.
l sincerely want to save my father-in-law and the queens.
l don't want to make slaves of the people of Nakrang,
who were so happy for our marriage.
SUYOUNG HALL / JlNYANG PALACE lt seems that putting on shows in Goguryeo will be difficult.
They won't allow the show because we told the story of
General Wu Naru running away with his tail between his legs.
But won't Goguryeo be naturally absorbed into Nakrang once
King Daemushin dies and the young prince succeed the throne?
lt is the straw that breaks the camel's back.
We must not let our guard down.
MlCHU But we have the prince.
CHA CHASUNG lt must break your heart,
but he'll protect Nakrang,
since he married the crown princess.
My goodness.
Why is there thunder all of a sudden?
- Princess. - Priestess.
Boss, no matter what l say,
Father and the officials won't believe me.
l told them we must kill Prince Hodong for
the sake of Nakrang, but nobody would believe me.
KlNG DAEMUSHlN'S TENT
Nakrang has Jamyunggo, the mystical drum.
That's why l asked you to tear it.
Goguryeo can't defeat Nakrang so easily.
Then Hodong will die...
and much blood will be shed on both sides.
Father!
You think Jamyunggo
can defeat all of 18,000 soldiers of Goguryeo?
Even if it did, do you think l'd stop there?
l'll put swords in the hands of all 180,000
people of Goguryeo.
Will you kill them all?
What if they all die?
Goguryeo and Nakrang will fall together,
and the empty land will be snatched up by Han.
lf an all-out war breaks out, Nakrang can't defeat Goguryeo.
Goguryeo's army has been strengthened through many wars.
Nakrang...
will be destroyed.
What do you want me to do?
What do you want me to do!
What do you want me to do?
What...
What do you want me to do...
You couldn't abandon Goguryeo,
and live as the prince of Nakrang?
Can't you live as the Queen of Goguryeo for me?
My mother, my father...
l love them just as much as you do.
Nakrang will be our brother country.
l promise you.
My people...
What will you do with them?
The people of Nakrang, the people of Goguryeo,
they are all my people.
Send Wang Hol to the seven southern prefectures when
l send you a message.
You're afraid of the great general?
l want to prevent a needless death.
Want Hol doesn't like me, but l like him.
l will...
tearJamyunggo.
Lahee.
Don't be so happy.
l'm doing it for me, not foryou.
Hodong...
l can't let you die.
You jerk.
WAGGEOM MARKETPLACE NAKRANG
Hail to the crown princess!
- Hail! - Hail!
LEEK ls your business doing well?
LEEK Yes, Your Highness.
Sell me some.
When did you learn to cook like this?
l wanted to cook foryou myself.
You seem troubled.
She must be sad to have left Hodong behind.
But you must praise him.
He wants to take care of his sick father and hold his funeral.
He's a kind man.
Yes, how was the King of Goguryeo?
He is gravely ill...
And how was Goguryeo?
lt's a strong kingdom.
Father.
l love Nakrang.
Yes, l know.
Father, Queen, Mother...
l love you all very much.
What's gotten into her?
She seems very emotional...
Are you pregnant?
No.
Please enjoy.
All right.
Let's try your cooking.
THE BlRYUNA TRlBE
l was so overjoyed to hear of your recovery and
your decision to name Prince Haeaewu crown prince that
l brought my 7000 troops.
l've been waiting forthis day to attack Nakrang.
l'll wash away the insult l suffered in Eunpo.
Have the troops of the Biryuna tribe arrived in Eunpo?
lt'll take some tome,
since we have more infantrymen than horsemen,
GAPSl / Time between 4:30 AM- 5:30 AM but they'll arrive by five in the morning.
GAPSl / Time between 4:30 AM- 5:30 AM The armies of the Yeonna,
Gwanna, Hwanna and Gyeru tribes
will also arrive in Eunpo shortly.
l'll lead the army.
We have a leader.
Hadeok, bring in the general.
Yes, Your Majesty.
l, Hodong, answeryour summons, Your Majesty.
Why... what's the prince doing here?
l have been waiting for this day forthe past 3 years
in Jolbon and Nakrang underthe king's command.
Your Majesty!
You must deceive your own first before you can
deceive the enemy.
Hodong has been carrying out my orders until now,
and he'll lead the attack on Nakrang.
The Biryuna tribe will stay out of it.
l can't put my faith in the king orthe prince.
l'll return the army of the Biryuna tribe!
Halt, Song Okgu!
This is ridiculous.
l'll see if you can conquer Nakrang without
the Biryuna tribe's support.
Eunpo isn't the only battlefield.
When the war drum sounded,
all of Goguryeo became a battlefield.
Awarrior who leaves the battlefield is guilty of treason.
A traitor deserves death!
You!
BORDER OF NAKRANG AND GOGURYEO Soldiers of Goguryeo,
look toward the fertile land of Nakrang beyond those hills.
Do you not want that land?
Your King, Daemushin, desires that land!
We want that land, Your Majesty!
Let us take Nakrang.
We'll take their land, rule over Hwanghae,
and make slaves of the worms of Nakrang!
Tear Jamyunggo and send its piece via Boruk.
JAMYUNGGO TEMPLE
You will betray your country?
Hodong promised me that Goguryeo will treat us as
their brother country if l tearJamyunggo.
That they'll accept us as theirtributary state.
Princess Lahee, l can't let you destroy Nakrang.
Nakrang will eventually fall under Goguryeo.
l'll never let you destroy Jamyunggo.
You think you can stop me?
Part 38
May l speak, Your Majesty?
Go ahead.
Nakrang is a sacred land.
How can we violate the land of Jamyunggo,
the land protected by Dangun Wanggeom?
We have attempted for more than a decade
to conquer Nakrang, but we failed every time.
TA HOTAE, General of Yeonna Tribe Even General Wu Naru lost all of his men the last time.
WU NARU Even General Wu Naru lost all of his men the last time.
Are you afraid of death?
l'm not afraid to die,
but l do not want the wrath of Heaven.
PRlNCE HODONG Heaven has forsaken Nakrang.
The Great King Dongmyeong appeared in my dream last night
and told me to punish Nakrang,
who has angered Heaven and l'll tearJamyunggo as a sign.
l would not dare doubt the prince,
but how can we believe you?
MYOSl / Time between 5:30 AM- 6:30 AM At six o'clock
MYOSl / Time between 5:30 AM- 6:30 AM Boruk will fly back with a proof
that Jamyunggo was destroyed.
LAHEE (Princess of Nakrang) You don't understand how much l want to spare
Nakrang from bloodshed.
l've seen Goguryeo.
Nakrang can never defeat Goguryeo.
JAMYUNG Don't make pathetic excuse.
Trying to save Nakrang's soldiers by tearing
Jamyunggo is an excuse?
Trying to save my parents, trying to spare the people
of Nakrang from becoming Goguryeo's slaves is an excuse?
How can we trust King Daemushin?
Even if l were the King of Goguryeo,
l wouldn't want to be friend Nakrang.
l can't trust him, but l trust Hodong, my husband.
Hodong doesn't love you.
Shut up.
He wouldn't ask such a thing from the woman he loves.
ls that your way of saying he loves you?
lt's his father and Goguryeo that the prince loves the most.
His love for me and guilt toward you can't compare in intensity.
Guilt, pity, passion, rage, fury, even icy coldness...
They're all different forms of love.
KlNG DAEMUSHlN'S CAMP
EUL DUJl Will the crown princess tearJamyunggo?
She will.
Do you have faith in her?
The crown princess will tearJamyunggo
because she loves Nakrang.
Stop that nonsense.
Just make sure your word to our soldiers.
lf the prince hadn't said that,
we couldn't have calmed the soldiers.
Give me 2000 troops from the Gyeruna tribe.
l'll take them with my Jolbon army
and march to Jinyang Palace.
And give up on Jamyunggo?
Then l'll attack Nakrang myself.
Father.
The troops won't follow your order!
l have waited 19 years to conquer Nakrang.
l've waited forthis day
since the day Choi Li went against Liu Xian.
l have finally managed to assemble 18,000 troops
from the five tribes!
We'll never get another opportunity aftertoday.
l exist because Goguryeo exists.
lf you can't keep the promise you made to our soldiers,
you'll pay for it with your life.
lt's not too late.
Turn your sword toward the King of Goguryeo, not Jamyunggo.
Why should l love Nakrang the same way you do?
Don't say you love Nakrang more than l do just because
you built that drum.
lt makes me sick.
You called my mother a hypocrite, but aren't you a hypocrite?
You can say you love Nakrang a thousand times,
but it'll still be a lie.
Just tell me you're doing this for Hodong.
And what's wrong with that?
l have weighed my heart just as you have.
l've weighed it tens of thousands times
on my return from Goguryeo.
My father, my mother, Nakrang, the people of Nakrang...
They're very heavy.
When l weighed Hodong, he was light.
But l want to choose Hodong, who is much lighter.
They are my honest feelings.
lt's past time.
The troops of the Yeonna tribe are getting restless.
You won't get what you want, even if you tearJamyunggo.
We can always make more drums.
Because the Jamyunggo that protects Nakrang is me,
Father and the great general.
Give up.
Nakrang and Goguryeo can never be brother countries.
l trust Hodong.
Look at you and me.
Just as there is hierarchy between siblings,
Nakrang will end up serving Goguryeo.
Can you call that a brother country?
l'll leave your fate to the king.
Jamyung.
You didn't... put poison...
Yes, l did.
Hyup Jook Do / Oleander
Know this.
You are not the only one who loves Nakrang.
l also love Nakrang, and wish to save it even if
means to become a tributary state of Goguryeo.
Did you give way to the army of Goguryeo?
You take care of it.
l'll leave you alone.
l'll die someday, but not here, not today.
Coward.
A son of Daemushin is afraid of death?
That's why people mock you, saying half of you is Buyeo.
l'm different from my uncles.
You say you don't want to walk in Grandfather's footsteps,
but you are exactly like him.
But l won't follow in uncles' footsteps.
l won't die a meaningless death.
lt seems you have pride,
and l can no longer bear it.
l'll do it foryou.
Your Majesty!
No, Your Majesty!
l won't die.
No, l won't die an unfair death by your hands.
You can't do this.
What you're doing is treasonous, Prince.
Accept it forthe sake of Goguryeo.
You must die in order for Goguryeo to live!
Give me an army.
l'll go and conquer Nakrang with my own hands.
l'll die after l hand you the land of Nakrang.
Shut up!
You should've taken the chance when you had it, you fool!
Prince, put down your sword!
There is trouble!
Father.
This is no time for a sword match with your son.
What is it?
Ta Hotae ran away with his troops.
This is the end.
Do you really want Hodong to die?
Can you go on when he dies?
You were nothing but Hodong's woman.
Maybe the poison on the dagger won't kill you,
but the poison on that pin will.
Do you know what you're guilty of?
l had to watch Hodong as he laid eyes on you.
l can neverforgive you for ripping my pride to shreds.
The mystical drum from Heaven was filled with dirty bats?
lt's a piece of Jamyunggo.
Go, Boruk!
We do not want to waste our lives in a losing battle.
l'm warning you.
Turn your horse around and lead your men back to their station.
l am warning you!
Where's the sign you promised us?
Give me proof that Jamyunggo was torn!
Do not stand in my way.
Men of the Yeonna tribe, march full speed to Jolbon!
This is your last warning!
Don't take another step from here.
lf you leave your station without the great general's permission,
and you'll pay for it with your lives.
Crazy idiot, only half of him is Goguryeo.
He should go back to Buyeo, his mother's country.
Jerk.
Ta Hotae!
General!
Are you that afraid of Nakrang?
You're afraid of a mere drum?
l'm not afraid of Jamyunggo.
Men of Goguryeo,
let's give Nakrang's city of Wanggeom to our king!
Our soldiers are afraid of Jamyunggo.
TAECHU Prince, it's Boruk.
Boruk is here.
Boruk even brought you a quail.
Good boy.
Jamyunggo is torn.
Look!
King Dongmyeongseong sent us a sign.
This is a piece of Jamyunggo.
Let us go to Nakrang!
Taechu's troops will follow me and lead the attack!
Princess!
Jamyung.

Jamyung.
Jamyung!
Hurry up.
Please hurry. The princess will die.
Shut that mouth.

You have to hang in there!
MlCHU l'll save you. l'll save your life somehow.
CHA CHASUNG Hurry up. Hurry up!
Princess...
CHOl Ll'S OFFlCE JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
There is big trouble.
What is the fuss?
BUDAL Jamyunggo... Jamyunggo is torn!
CHOl Ll
RYU Jl How could that happen when the security was so tight?
The guards around the temple were poisoned.
What about the priestess?
l couldn't find her anywhere.
MO HASO
Who tore Jamyunggo?
lt must have been Goguryeo spies.
How could they have gotten inside the temple?
Who could have done it?
Your Majesty, it is Do Sugi.
Your Majesty.
What is it?
DO SUGl Your Majesty,
the Goguryeo army has crossed the border.
Bring my armor!
Yes, Your Majesty.
Summon the great general.
A battle with Mokji is very important.
MO YANGHAE Send the troops to Younghojangwon.
Yes, sir. l'll leave now.
WANG JA-SlL Yes, sir. l'll leave now.
Your Majesty.
CHlSO Don't follow me.
Will you do it yourself?
SUNGSlWON Royal physician of Nakrang l'll make medicine.
l can make ointment with whale oil forthe wounded.
llpum brought news of the priestess.
Where is she?
l'll take my leave.
Since Do Sugi went to fetch the great general,
l'll return to Yulguhun and start the preparation.
How is the princess? Where is she?
She's been poisoned and her life is in danger.
DONGGOBl Why wouldn't you ask him who did it?
l'm afraid to ask.
lt was the crown princess.
The crown princess could harm her again
if l took herto the royal physician...
Boss and Michu took her.
LAHEE'S CHAMBER
Did you do it?
Did you tearJamyunggo?
Yes.
Did you kill Jamyung?
Yes...
You asked me once...
How l could love someone to death when
l didn't have anyone l hated to death.
l've heard of women who brought about the fall of a kingdom,
but l've never heard of a crown princess
who brought down her kingdom for a man.
Who knew that'd be my daughter?!
Since when were you so worried about Jamyung?
Jamyung, who threatens your position, is an enemy,
but the priestess who made the mystical drum is your ally.
Were you too blinded by jealousy to see that?
The first queen is coming.
Your Majesty...
Yes. l did it.
l tore Jamyunggo and...
l killed Jamyung too...
Queen, please forgive Lahee. lt's all because of Hodong.
Jumuk's prophecy must've been about Lahee...
She must've been the girl who'll bring the fall of Nakrang.
Watch what you say. Nakrang won't fall!
Put on your armor.
Put on your armor and assist the king!
No.
l'd ratheryou hold me responsible for killing Jamyung
and tell me to kill myself.
Crown Princess.
Did you... have to do that to Jamyung?
Yes...
Lahee.
Lahee...
How could you...
How could you have ruined yourself like this?
l hated Jamyung.
l wanted to kill her.
But...
But l didn't think l'd really kill her.
lf you don't want to put on your armor,
then change your clothes.
lf Nakrang wins, yourfather will kill you,
but if Nakrang loses, the angry mob will kill you.
A crown princess who brings her country down
deserves to be stoned to death.
l can't bearto see that.
There are ships that still leave for China.
Leave with the war refugees and go to Dongmohyun.
Yes, you should.
No...
Lahee.
l can't watch my daughter die.
NeitherJamyung noryou...
l can't watch either of you die before me.
Pack yourthings now.
Let's hurry.
Princess...
Lahee, that vicious witch...
l know she's only her half-sister,
but how could she use such strong poison on her sister?
What are you doing? Pull out the hairpin first.
Be careful. She might lose too much blood.
- Cloth. Bring some cloth. - Here.
Put more pressure on it.
The rumorthat Dangun has forsaken Nakrang and
ENTRANCE TO SOYOGWAN GATE OF JOSEONHYUN torn Jamyunggo has already spread among the troops.
How could Dangun forsake us?
Your Majesty, we can only put ourfaith in
Younghojangwon and the seven southern prefectures.
We must hold the fort at Nubang and Namhan until
the great general comes.
We must do whatever it takes to hold the enemy off at Joseon.
Your Majesty!
SUSUNG GATE / Gate bordering Joseonhyun and Namhanhyun Susung Gate has fallen!
Your Majesty, Joseon Prefecture has fallen to Wu Naru.
Your Majesty, Prince Hodong has conquered Namhan Prefecture.

The road to Yunam is blocked.
We'll go to Jeodu Harbor.
We must cross the river.

l'll go by myself if l have to.
l'll go with you, General.
General!
You jerk!
Have you lost your mind?
Are you Hodong's spy?
l don't care if we become fish food.
But the general is Nakrang's last hope.
Who else will be there to lead ourtroops and attack Goguryeo?
There is something l couldn't tell you, General.
Joseon Prefecture has fallen.
His Majesty has failed to guard Soyo Gate.
Your Majesty!
Father!
Father...
JEONGWANG GATE, NAKRANG

Your Majesty.
You raised a fine daughter.
Your Majesty...
l beg yourforgiveness...
You've worked so hard to build this kingdom...
l brought you such humiliation by
giving birth to such a daughter...
King Daemushin made me a promise.
BUJUL / Seal of a king He said if we'd only surrender
the royal seal, he'd allow us

Please kill the crown princess.
lf you kill the crown princess and die...
the first queen and l will follow as well...
Your Majesty.
l don't deserve such gracious death.
Lady Mo, sneak out of the palace right now,
and deliver my message to the great general.
Yes, Your Majesty.
The great general is not to take his own life.
This is my last command.
He will survive and save Nakrang.
Nakrang fought 10-year war with Liu Xian and won.
Have faith in our strength and save our people.
l'll obey your command, Your Majesty.
l strip Lahee of her title as crown princess.
Humble accept the people's punishment.
Why won't you believe l was trying to save our people?
But if you can, live as Hodong's wife and
do everything you can to prevent the people of
Nakrang from becoming Goguryeo's slaves.
And help the great general.
l will...

Hail to Goguryeo!
Hail to King Daemushin!
Hail to Goguryeo!

He's incarcerated in Youngan Hall.
SEONGYEOM HALL, JlNYANG PALACE

May l speak with you privately, Your Majesty?
There will be insurgencies if you rule with such a strong hand.
How will you put down Nakrang's insurgency?
Please accept them as our brother country.
You're a fool of fools.
Your Majesty.
You're the biggest weakling of weaklings.
Father.
What will happen when the 300,000 people of Nakrang
and 180,000 people of Goguryeo become brothers,
wed each other and bear children?
ln 30 years, the people of Nakrang will take Goguryeo.
We'll be Goguryeo in name only.

Answer me, Song Maeseolsu.
His Majesty has conquered Nakrang.
As he should.
He killed my fatherto get there.
lt's only right that he conquer it and give it to Haeaewu.
Your Majesty.
Your daughter Song Maeseolsu promise you.
l'll kill Hodong and avenge your death.
MlANG HALL, JlNYANG PALACE Choi Li will officially surrender.
You should go.

There is no hurry.
Your Majesty...

Mo Haso.
As an ordinary man...
l was happy to have met you.
Dear...
l must see Prince Hodong.
l must see King Daemushin.
Please go back.
lt's my father's last day on earth.
Please let me see him.
The criminal Choi Li has come to offer Nakrang to the king!
Why is he wearing that rope around his neck?
Did they get him just before he hanged himself?
lt means he offers his life to our king.
lt's not the first time you've seen it.
- Father. - No, Princess.
Go away.
Father!
Father.
Let go.
Did the prince of Goguryeo sold his body to my daughter
like a common whore, and got Nakrang in return?
A king is like a prostitute.
He must charm his officials and the people.
The only difference is that he sells his thought
ratherthan his body.
ls that right?
l would have sold my body to a pig to have Nakrang,
but l do apologize.
A criminal who lost his country doesn't deserve to walk.
Crawl!
No, Your Majesty!
The King of Goguryeo is right.
A criminal who lost his country doesn't deserve to stand.
No, Your Majesty!
Minister, move out of the way.
l'll pay with my life the crime of failing you.
Please step over my body, Your Majesty...
What are you doing? Take the corpse away!
Don't bother.
Choi Li, make haste. l'm getting tired of waiting.
Criminal Choi Li, bow to the king!
No!
Father, l beg you as your daughter-in-law.
l don't have a daughter-in-law.
l am your son, Hodong's wife.
What am l, if l'm not your daughter-in-law?
That's enough.
You're the princess of a fallen kingdom,
but you must not stoop any lower.
Prince Hodong promised me.
He said he'd treat Nakrang as Goguryeo's brother state
if l tore Jamyunggo.
Princess, leave.
Hodong...
Please help...
Keep your promise.
You are not to be seen by my son nor me ever again.
Drag away that conniving tramp, who has sold her country,
her people and herfather.

That's what happens when one is overcome with sorrow.
Find Princess Jamyung.
With the princess as our leader, we regain Nakrang.
Your Majesty...
The royal seals of Nakrang.

l'll offer my head as a price for my idiocy.
Jamyung!

WANG JA-SlL
CHOl Ll
Are you regretting it?

We'd have been killed by my brother anyway.
You became king and ruled over Nakrang as you had wished.
You didn't lose anything.
CHlSO
Wait for me.
You say you never want to see me again,
but in our next life.
l'll help you become king again.
The king wished to be beheaded and.

Grown men are sent to work in the mine in Sangmu.
JAMYUNG
They'll be slaves.
WANG HOL Wu Naru is taking our people to Goguryeo.

Please be our crown princess.
With this sword, l'll save Nakrang.
KlNG'S OFFlCE, JlNYANG PALACE, NAKRANG Just as l expected,
people are rebelling against your decision.
lt happens all the time in a fallen kingdom.
We should kill them.
But the number is too great.
CHU BALSO Your Majesty, the prince has a valid point.
We can't station our army in Nakrang forever.
KlNG DAEMUSHlN Let the people of Nakrang
complain and curse to their hearts' content.
EUL DUJl Your Majesty, what do you mean?
lt wasn't Goguryeo that destroyed theirJamyunggo
and ruined Nakrang.
lt was their crown princess.
She was blinded by the prince of the enemy state,
and sold her country.
Spread the news, and give the tramp to her people.
No, Father.

No.
No, Lahee.
Let us go.
EXECUTlON OF LAHEE, WHO BROUGHT DOWN NAKRANG FOR A MAN
Hearye, people of Nakrang.
You blame Goguryeo, but it is not Goguryeo's fault
that Heaven and Dangun have forsaken you.
Your crown princess was blinded by a man and
tore the mystical Jamyunggo, and incurred Heaven's wrath.
Kill her!
Kill the tramp who sold Nakrang to Goguryeo!
Kill her.
We must kill her.
People of Nakrang.
Punish me.
l have brought the fall of our kingdom,
and tore the mystical object.
Curse me all you want, and kill me.
But do not lose hope.
The great general.
and the other princess of Nakrang will save you.
A bunch of bull!
Crown Princess!
Your Majesty!
Queen, get out of the way.
She's an unforgivable criminal.
l deeply apologize for not bringing up my child properly.
She deserves to be stoned to death, but.
Please.
Please forgive her.
lf you can't forgive her.
Hold me responsible as well.
We lost our parents and children.
How is your child precious?
Pay foryour sins with your life!
My child!
Your Majesty!
Go, Donggobi.
Go to llpum.
My life belongs to you, Your Majesty.
l was happy to have served you!
From the day l first saw you in Jinyang Palace,
l have never stopped loving you.
l'm sorry.
l'm sorry, Lahee.
l'm sorry.
Please.
My immature daughter brought the fall of our kingdom,
and she deserves to be stoned to death.
But my intuition also tells me
it's not Lahee's destiny to be stoned to death.
lf Lahee survives please let me take her.
And l also believe you'll grant me my wish, Your Majesty.
You're truly something, Wang Jasil.
You're just as tenacious as the Queen of Goguryeo.
Fine.
l'll grant your wish.
Mom.
My child.

You should've gone to Jamyung.

Lahee.
We'll live.
Come with Mom.
Your Majesty, the crown princess has already passed.
My daughter can't die.
How can she die when she hasn't become queen yet?
Lahee won't die as long as l'm alive.
Let's go, Lahee.

Your Majesty.

Please rest in peace.
Princess, why aren't you crying?
lt's alright to cry.
lt's not time to cry.
The seven southern prefectures haven't fallen yet.
Gatherthe troops.
l'll sneak into Goguryeo with Cha Chasung and
find a way to save our people.
1 YEAR AFTER THE FALL OF NAKRANG Prince, my Prince Hodong.
MlCHU Why won't you smile at me, as you used to?
CHA CHASUNG Princess Nakrang,
l hearthat you have a drum with
mystical powers that'll alert you of invaders.
ls that true?
Yes, my prince. lt's the treasure of our country.
We'll be safe from any invaders
as long as we have Jamyunggo.
Lahee, if you truly love me, tearJamyunggo for me.
Prince, my prince.
l'll tearJamyunggo foryou, Prince.
l may become the worst villain,
who betrayed her country and herfather,
but l'll accept it as my fate and tearthe drum.
Princess Jamyung. fell to Princess Lahee's sword.
And the Kingdom of Nakrang vanished without a trace.
Maybe that was the fate of Nakrang.
lt's already been a year under Goguryeo's kind rule.
The people of Nakrang are finally enjoying
true peace and prosperity.
Hail Goguryeo!
Hail to King Daemushin!
Hail to Prince Hodong!
Hail Goguryeo!

- Hail to Prince Hodong! - Hail to Prince Hodong!
Aren't you going to join in?
Go ahead and enjoy yourself.
Close the curtain. The show is over.
SOSO / TAECHU The show is over.
Thus ends the most tragic love story in the history of Goguryeo,
the tale of Prince Hodong and Princess Nakrang.
YEORANG Let's go. How childish.
What do you mean? l enjoyed it.
They made Hodong a foolish seducer.
l'd have them killed right this minute if it weren't
a puppet show, but l can't be outraged at a puppet show.
How crude.
l finally realized something.
Crude shows are much more fun than elegant ones.
Hodong, let's go.
You seem tired. Would you like some tea?
Maybe something to drink. Right, Prince?
l'll have some tea.
-What is it? -What's the matter?
Where are you going? Wait for me.
Don't follow me.
Be careful.
My goodness.
Your Highness.
What brings you to this humble place again?
Did you forget something.
Open it.
l believe l left something down there.
Open it.
You must be joking, Your Highness.
How can l open the ground.
Prince, did you have a drink?
l can't blame you for protecting her,
but l must see Jamyung too.
Princess Jamyung, run away! Prince Hodong is here!
Prince Hodong.
Honey!
Jamyung.
You were alive.
l couldn't die.
Because l had to see you.
Yes, l too.
had to see you.
l wonder if our reasons are same
for our reunion.
Jamyung.
What is it?
Can we still have feelings for each other?
There is only one reason to see you.
Jamyung.
Close the doors.
Here he is.
l knew it.
Boss, send a message to General Wang Hol.
He must save the people of Nakrang whether l live or die.
Why did you bring me here?
Why?
Let me hold you.
You want to hold me?
You brought me here so you could hold me?
Yes, l want to hold you so badly.
Prince Hodong!
l hadn't realized it before l met you.
l want to abandon my desire to become king, and be with her.
That there could be someone who could let me dream that dream.
Don't lie t me.
You don't love me.
l don't?
ls that love?
You killed my father.
Fine, l never liked her.
l neither hated nor liked her, but Lahee was my sister.
You killed my sister and destroyed my country.
You call that love?
l'm a prince.
The Prince of Goguryeo, the eldest son of King Daemushin.
l did my best in my position.
l did my best at loving you and at loving myself.
l did my best.
Draw your sword.
OLD BORDER OF NAKRANG AND GOGURYEO

The prince will be in danger if they bring Wang Hol here.

Good.

Draw your sword, Prince Hodong.
Now!
This sword belongs to my father, King Daemushin.
So?
ls my blood too dirty to soil that sword?
You'll die if l draw this sword.
l knew it.
We waited for each other forthe same reason.
l want to delay, if only for a little longer.
l want to see you alive a little longer.
You smiling, angry, heartbroken, breaking my heart.
l want to feel every one of yourfeelings.
l'd known all along.
How shallow your love is.
You can't call it love if you aren't willing to
sacrifice anything for it.
What about you?
Could you have given up Nakrang for me?
Could you have given up Nakrang and lived as my woman?
At least l...
l didn't give you up forthe throne.
l'm not Lahee.
l envied Lahee, who could follow her heart,
but l'm not Lahee.
Don't you know that sometimes your responsibilities
weigh much heavier than love?
Jamyung.
Don't say anything anymore.
l'll make you draw your sword.

off any feelings l had foryou.
Close your eyes!
Hold me.
l can't die.
You can't kill me.
But l can kill you again and again.

How can l?
Because your desire to become king isn't greater
than my desire to protect my people.
l guess l didn't get rid of all my feelings that day.

Why not?
Just like you.
Maybe l wanted to feel it a little longer.
of you being alive.
