TalHae convinces JeongGyeonBi to kill SooRo and finally gets permission to do so.
Meanwhile, Priestess reveals to JeongGyeonBi that SooRo is her son.
Just as the truth about SooRo's birth was about to be revealed, SooRo, who went to rescue AhHyo...
Episode 17
Soo...SooRo... it's me...
It's me, TalHae.
About that... the reason I put you on that boat was...
I was trying to make sure that you live.
SooRo...
SooRo!
Let's talk later.
Listen to me. You were mistaken.
Mistake?
You're saying that I'm mistaken?
What am I mistaken...
sure...
Let me hear what you have to say.
That time...
If I didn't do something about it that day,
I was sure that you would've been dead.
That was the best I could've done for you.
You know that. I'm pretty sure you understand me.
SooRo... SooRo... SooRo... wait!
Wait, SooRo.
Yes...
I'm sorry... that day, I made the wrong judgement.
I'm sorry.
Ask people around HaeBanCheon.
Your mother... if it wasn't for me, she would've been in big trouble.
Hey... people know it all.
If you can't believe what I'm saying, then ask those people.
For your mother, I did all the duty that you were supposed to do as a son...
Think about what I've done to you.
Okay...
Okay SooRo... you made a good decision.
You're forgiving me, right?
I'm TalHae!
TalHae
You're the only son to the doctor.
I don't want to give her pain of losing her son.
Go...
Thank you.
SooRo...
We should meet again... ehh?
You bastard...
You must be thinking you're all that.
That was your limit.
If you drew the sword, then you should have slit my throat.
I will make you regret this for your life.
You wouldn't know...
You wouldn't know even if you wake up from being dead.
I, who grew up poor...
you wouldn't know how much effort I made just to live like other people.
I was so jealous of you, who was the son of the forge master.
You, who already had something, that I desperately tried to acquire to death...
SooRo...
Have you ever imagined how I would feel?
Aigoo, TalHae.
What's wrong?
Did something happen?
No, mother. It's nothing.
By any chance, did something happen with Lady Cheongoon?
No, you don't have to worry about it.
Your mother wouldn't be worried when her grown-up son is crying?
Just tell me what's wrong.
I met SooRo.
Why would you look like this, meeting SooRo?
I feel so ashamed of my situation.
What do you mean ashamed?
I couldn't give you everything, but at least we're living well.
Master SooRo is no different.
What are you talking about?
How can the son of the forge master and me not be different?
It's the difference of heaven and earth.
He himself doesn't know who his real mother is, like you.
What? What do you mean he doesn't know who the real mother is?
Tha... that is...
Mother, please tell me.
What do you mean SooRo doesn't know who his real mother is? What about forge master's wife?
No, no, it's nothing. It's all just a past.
What do you have to hide from me anyway?
If SooRo's real mother isn't forge master's wife, then who is it?
I made a big mistake.
What do you mean you made a mistake?
Subtitles brought to you by the Kim SooRo Fan Subbing Team.
What?
Ho...How can that happen?
I was suffering from that, trying to keep it secret.
It seems like I have to beg for an apology and tell him the truth.
Mother...
Mother, we have no choice.
Keep it covered up, please.
What if Master SooRo gets hurt from it?
You don't need to worry about that.
Whatever happens to him, he'd be safe under ShinGuiGwan.
If Lady Cheongoon thinks of SooRo in a vengeful way...
How could I stand watching that?
Then, what would happen to the forge master's wife?
If she knows that she's not his real mother,
would ShinGuiGwan let go of her, knowing that she's useless?
It'll be a disaster, mother.
What should I do about this?
Wow, how long has it been?!!
Another one... ahhh.
Does it taste that good?
Of course it is.
I would have no wish if we can always eat together.
Mister! We're back!
Who is this!
Wow, how long has it been?!!
Welcome, welcome.
Yes... I was expecting it... is it a son or daughter?
Aigoo, aigoo, you look so cute.
It's a son.
How is he? Doesn't he resemble his father?
Hey hey... you must be happy.
Heh, what are you...
Aigoo, if you're jealous, then why don't you do something now?
Aigoo, what are you talking about?
Oh, oh,The princess...
So... you came together?
She was trying to look for master SooRo...
He owes her a lot from NeukDo island.
Why don't you come in?
So... you came looking for SooRo?
Yes.
Then, with our SooRo...?
So... what is she with SooRo?
Uhm..
What are you saying? Just let it out!
Umm... that is...
they're in this and that kind of relationship.
Ohh...
But what do we do...
SooRo won't show up since he's too worried about his mother.
Where could I find him?
What brings you here?
I came to know more about SooRo.
SooRo?
I heard that he left to find his mother. Everyone is worried.
Is SooRo doing good?
I don't know. It's been a while since the last time I saw him.
If you excuse me...
Please tell me.
Where is he?
If I see him, I'll tell him for you.
Tell me if you have anything to say.
I have something to discuss with him, so..
Please tell him I'm here.
Very well.
So... did you decide?
Yes.
I've made my decision.
Is that so?
Good job.
Thank you.
Instead, let go of my mother.
What?
Let go of your mother?
If you do that,
I'll do everything you desire.
Are you... underestimating me?
You're the one who wants me.
If the reason my mother's taken hostage is me,
let go of her.
I need both, you, SooRo, and your mother.
You are my son.
I'll take it as you understand and leave.
You're alright, right?
Oh..., captain.
Miss...
I was worried...
I'm glad you're okay.
Everyone's... okay... right?
What happened to your mother?
For now, do what ShinGuiGwan wants you to do.
He took my father's life.
You should think about your mother's life too.
I just can't accept it.
You have to control your feeling.
Even if you stand on ShinGuiGwan's side for now,
your great intention won't get broken.
I believe in you.

Hey, aren't you BeoDeul?
You ran away...?.
No I didn't.
I came to see my brother.
Where's my brother?
Hey, be careful how you address him. It's master CheonGoon.
Brother!
BeoDeul!
How did you get here?
So... is your father doing well?
Yes.
Good. By the way, why did you come this far here?
Did you by any chance run away, not telling your father?
So that's how it is.
Your father will be worried,
so stay here for tonight and leave tomorrow.
BeoDeul.
What's wrong?
Tell me.
I... came to live with my brother!
Why are you meeting that woman?
What do you mean why I'm meeting her?
Who is she that she's around you so often?
Since I could get in trouble by ShinGuiGwan because of my mother,
people in NeukDo got worried and came instead.
Why her, when there could have been others?
Look at me in the eyes.
That woman...
loves you.
AhHyo... please understand.
It's just that I owe her a lot. I have a lot of debts to her.
Then... what am I to you then?
You're... my girl.
Better?
For a while...
I think it'll be hard to meet you.
Why?
I have to be in ShinGuiCheon.
Are you going in to ShinGuiGan's company?
Yes.
You can't do that.
Why?
You're not acting like yourself.
You know who ShinGuiGwan is more than anyone.
It's all for my mother. I have no choice.
Then you can bring out your mother.
I'll help.
I have a plan.
Don't worry.
Welcome, Princess Heo.
How long has it been?
Please take a seat.
Have you been doing well?
I heard about your father.
How painful it must've been.
So, I heard that you have something to tell me. Tell me.
I heard that the proprietor's position for GimHaeGwan is empty.
Right.
Chief Yeom was frightened and left everything before he fled.
But...
I would like to try managing GimHaeGwan.
Your father's not with you, can you do it by yourself?
My experience may not amount to much, but if I apply what my father taught me,
I am confident I can manage as well as Chief Yeom SaChi.
Is that so?
If that's the case, then I have no reason to refuse it.
Is that so? Congratulations.
To manage this GimHaeGwan all by yourself, that's impressive.
I will ask you, AhHyo, this favor of you as well.
Why do you wish to manage GimHaeGwan all of a sudden?
Is this a ploy to not return to NeukDo?
AhHyo.
Then tell me why.
I just don't think that it's a duty as a daughter to leave a place where her father passed away.
By any chance, isn't it because you want to be with SooRo?
I'm disappointed to hear you say that after I've explained it already.
If that's so, then I have nothing else to say.
But, don't be reassured that you are managing GimHaeGwan.
Chief Yeon SaChi is not one to give up so easily.
Because ShinGuiGwan blocked the route, we ran out of supplies for the iron production.
That ShinGuiGan, by far the worst of the worst, struck again?
Isn't there a good solution?
If not striking ShinGuiGwan with an army, there isn't any other good strategy.
Wouldn't ShinGuiGwan be at a disadvantage as well?
Of course.
Neither side would gain anything.
We can't just let it go like this.
May I come up with something, then?
What do you mean come up with something?
Do you have a good strategy?
Please trust me.
I have experience in this kind of thing.
How have you been, Chief?
Thanks to you.
I hear you are well taken care of, by that female feline?
Please be careful what you're saying. What do you mean by "female feline?"
Oh I must've made a mistake.
It's not "female feline", rather it's 100 year old fox...?
Chief, did you come here to make a treaty or fight?
What?!?!
What?!
You rat!
Hey, punk! You almost made me lose all my wealth.
What do you mean Treaty?
I'd be still mad even if I chew you up!
If you were hot tempered in front of ShinGuiGwan, what would he say?
ShinGuiGwan?
It's Grand Duke, you little punk!
Since he fell back to ShinGuiCheon, it's correct to say "ShinGuiGwan".
Alright, fine.
What do you want to say?
I don't even want to see you, so...
Let's get this over with and leave.
It looks to me that you have given up GimHaeGwan completely.
Give up GimHaeGwan...?
Give up GimHaeGwan, why should I give up GimHaeGwan...??!!
Then, do you have some kind of...plan,...Chief...?
If you open up the route, then we'll spread out the iron ore.
Please tell Grand Duke that..
Fine.
I will deliver that message, but, on one condition, GimHaeGwan.
Chief Yeom.
Please thank Grand Duke for the assassins he sent me.
But, also tell him to stop this foolish game.
Don't worry.
But you have to take the responsibility for GimHaeGwan.

Good thinking.
To make me the father of a proud son,
I thank you, honey.
I'd like to do something for you, for the memory of our father and son relationship.
Tell me anything.
I don't have much intention.
By any chance, don't you want to own a forge of your own?
I will build you one.
I knew you'd say that.
I was expecting it.
You have no desire for anything?
I want to build you a larger forge than the one in Nine Nations.
What do you think?
If you build me one, then I will try my best.
Good, good, good decision.
The atmosphere seems really nice around here.
We even have your son here.
So, what happened?
Ah, they must've been desperate.
So they decided to agree within our conditions?
Of course, of course.
Who am I?
As if a cat, I charged at him really ferociously.
Is that so?
The people who fell in despair have grown apart,
and the time that had ruined the reputation of GooYa Nation,
what can we do about it at this point?
Let's not waste our time and get to the point.
How about all of us calm down and get to the Treaty?
You tell us what you want first.
Will you agree to open all the routes to Nine Nations?
For...?
As before, we will supply you with the production from our forge.
Is that it?
I will guarantee your access to GimHae Harbor, also.
What about GimHaeGWAN...?
If that's the case, then fine.
I will withdraw my soldiers.
Wise decision.
Well, if that's the case--
Wait!
GimhaeGwan is my personal asset, so shouldn't you return it?
What do you mean return it?
The owner has been decided already.
What do you mean changed?
GimHaeGwan is a personal asset!
If you want it back that badly, then why don't you return as a citizen of the GooGeup State?
Instead of being stuck in the ShinGuiCheon.
What did you say?
Chief Yeom...
I will retrieve them for you.
Be careful what you're saying.
Well, the Treaty negotiation went well, why are you in such a hurry?
Master CheonGoon, living the rough life in the village, you must have been a dependable guard to your mother.
I'm saying this because I've earned myself a proud son.
Everyone was waiting for you.
Greet them.
Everyone, this is my wife.
And... my son SooRo.
As you know if I talk about SooRo,
isn't he the expert who possess the forgery skill?
I'm thinking about building an enormous forge in ShinguiCheon and giving it to SooRo.
Isn't that what the gift that a father gives to his son looks like?
How could...
How could this possibly happen?
You never expected such thing to happen?
I was a bit worried since when ShinGuiGwan pulled JoBang's wife, but...
How could I have imagined that SooRo would do such a thing like this?
We can't let it go like this.
At this rate...
At this rate, master CheonGoon's throne would become a thing down the stream.
Then what should we do?
We need some special strategy.
Before it gets too complicated...
We need to get rid of SooRo.
SooRo...?
We have no time to hesitate. We need to make the decision quickly.
Mother, ShinGuiGwan and SooRo are blind to the greed and power.
If we go like this, then we are no different than they are.
ShinGuiGwan started this.
You wouldn't want GooYa Nation to be under control by tyrannies like him.
We have no time to discuss about our situation.
ShinGuiGwan who even uses iron to earn GooYa Nation...
Would you just let it slip like this?
We only need to get rid of SooRo.
If we do, then ShinGuiGwan's plan becomes nothing.

How could I even show myself around people?
Mother, don't be so worried.
I'm regretful for not ending this pathetic life.
Mother, what are you talking about?
You can't be weak.
Just to live,
I brought you and your father a shame.
That's not true.
The world will know someday that you sacrificed yourself just for me.
Actions done in order to save you...
I get the feeling it got worse for doing so.
What do you mean?
Didn't you see JeongGyeonBi's eye?
It was so creepy.
Don't worry.
I have a plan.
My son, SooRo!
Mother, you have to be strong.
You cannot think about anything else.
The sign that heaven is on your side,
isn't it showing?
Even if I just sit here,
luck seems to be rolling in by itself.
By the way, I wonder what that feline's expression would be like.
Isn't it obvious? She's probably exremely mad right now.
I disagree.
What? If not, then...?
I think she's laying down, not able to control her anger!
That's even better!
You're working hard.
What are you talking about?
You gave us a job to do. We're the ones to say that.
Well then...
I heard that you are close to SooRo.
Can I ask you for a favor?
Yes, please speak.
Since he's under ShinGuiGwan, he'd hesitate to see me if I call him up, so...
Can you deliver a word for me?
How can you be under someone like ShinGuiGwan?
You should know why.
Because of my mother, I had no choice.
You must've been suffering a lot until now.
Come back to the forge.
I thank you for your offer, but I cannot.
Then are you going to be on that pathetic ShinguiGwan's side forever?
Then, is it right if I abandon my mother to be on your side?
My responsibilities... I'll take care of them.
This is where your father's soul exists... I will allow it, so come back.
Since when did you care so much about me and my father?
Besides, this forge does not match with the one I am thinking about..
"Does not match...?" What do you mean by that?
Isn't this forge something that's used to put master Cheongoon on the throne?
If it's not for everyone, I have no desire to work here.
I really don't understand you.
You've completely become ShinGuiGwan's man.
To be honest, I see no difference between you and ShinGuiGwan.
Aren't you both blind to the throne?
I hope you don't regret what you said to me today.
You are beautiful.
But someone who's frail and beautiful,
do you take something that belongs to someone else without permission of the owner?
I think you're mistaken.
Lady CheonGoon bestowed GimHaeGwan to me.
She does not have a right to do that!
Truly, with something that a thief took over,
how can she do as she pleases?
This GimHaeGwan belongs to me, Yeom SaChi, no matter what.
If you want to run this place, then
you should ask me, not JeongGyeonBi.
Wouldn't it be the proper behavior of beautiful people?
It's sounds to me like a falsehood.
If you want the right to own this place, then why don't you reach an agreement with Lady CheonGoon again?
I have no right to do your bidding.
If you excuse me...
Subtitles brought to you by the Kim SooRo Fan Subbing Team @www.Viki.
So you're going to underestimate Chief Yeom...
I think this place would be perfect.
Why would you say that?
Not only it's close to the mine, but it'd be convenient to carry supplies around.
Of course it is.
Congratulations, Grand Duke.
So when can we start the construction?
But, there is one thing missing.
Missing? What is?
We don't have the workers.
Why would you worry about that? People are everywhere.
Not just anyone builds the forge.
I'm saying that we need someone skillful.
Didn't I tell you? SooRo isn't some simple minded person.
ShinGuiCheon is already starting the forge construction.
What?!
Already?
So ShinGuiGwan was not lying?
SooRo that punk is leading the construction.
That little bastard!
YiJinAhShi... what's wrong?
SooRo this punk...
What about him?
He's pulling these skilled workers of the forge one by one.
What?!
This punk...
See? This is just the beginning.
You need to make the decision.
I will think about it.
Dear heaven, what should I do now?
Lady CheonGoon and master CheonGoon have come.
Is the preparation going well?
What are you talking about...?
Didn't I tell you last time?
When would be the perfect day for my son's ceremonial to the throne?
Last time you were like this, you're doing it again. What's your problem?
Just let it out.
I couldnt... get the heaven's message.
What do you mean you didn't get the message bestown by heaven?
Wasn't there prophecy already?
Why are you hesitating like this?
It's not... Master Cheongoon.
What nonsense is this?
It's not YiJinAhShi?
I... only follow Cheongoon's words,
Cheongoon has stated that SooRo is the one born with prophecy.
How unfortunate...
Do you remember priestess HyeRae?
Why are you talking about her all of a sudden?
Didn't ShinGuiGwan kidnap her last time?
He won't leave the CheonGwan Priestess alone.
What should we do?
We can't be defeated, knowing it all.
We have to act out first.
We need to stop her from saying it.
Remember. You guys need to be ready now.
What are you talking about?
I get the feeling that I won't be able to protect CheongMyeonGwan.
What makes you think that?
Since I told the truth to Cheongoon's wife,
Lady CheonGoon will try to deny the Prophecy however she can.
Are you thinking of something?
Since I don't think I can protect this place,
I'm so sorry to CheonGoon,
but, let's go to Mount YeongChook.
YiJinAhShi... what am I seeing right now?
What are you doing?
Go find that High Priestess NaChalNyeo!
Yes ma'am.
Let's go.
Let go of me!
Let go!
You see?
This is the doings of ShinGuiGan and SooRo.
To get in master CheonGoon's way, they even try to remove the Holy Object
You still can't believe me?
I'll take care of it.
This is a trap.
I have to rescue AhHyo.
I can even give my life for it.
AhHyo.
Are you ok?
Aren't you... afraid of heaven?
I don't know what happened between you and ShinGuiGwan while I was gone,
but I hope you tell me the truth.
I did tell the truth.
You just want to deny the fact.
Do you really want to die or something?
For sure,
Cheongoon has said so as well.
What are you doing? Hit her!
Are you really not going to tell the truth?
Say it now! Who's the owner of the GooYa Nation's throne?
Owner of the GooYa Nation is SooRo.
It's SooRo, who was given birth by you!
