Episode 20
I have done everything that you've asked of me to do.
I've managed to leave all of my entourage behind,
and came here alone by myself.
The owner of the seoyeopdo... Where is that female?!
Pri... Princess...
Cheonmyeong?! How did you know about this place?!
Mother...
Deokman?!
I'm sorry for disobeying your order, but...
I must know!
Your Highness, the owner of that seoyeopdo... is...
Deokman!
Deokman.
No... I must know...
who I am...
who my parents are... Really.
This is your mother.
Mother.
Deokman is...
a female.
A female!
A female! A daughter!
Mother's daughter!
She is my younger sister!
The one who had to be thrown out as soon as she was born... she is my younger sister!
She is my twin sibling!
Princess? Why are you... doing this?
I know you're mad at me, but still...
This is a bit... too much.
Is it true?
This child is...
a female and...
this child is...
your twin sibling. Is that true?!
Yes, Mother.
It is true.
I said I was sorry, Princess...
I said I was sorry!
She is the one who has the seoyeopdo,
and the one who submitted the appeals report.
She is the one who grew up believing
that her mother is His Majesty's palace maid, Sohwa.
And she is the one who almost died at the hands of Chilsuk, who was sent by Mishil.
It's this child!
It's Deokman!
Really...
Are you really...
Are you...?
Your Highness, I am not.
I'm just a low class Nangdo.
The princess is just being treacherous towards me.
She is just trying to teach me a lesson.
I get the point, Princess!
I am going... I'll go!
I'm going to mount Joognak!
Deokman!
So your name was Deokman...
I wasn't even able to properly give her a name...
as I sent her away... and so the name of my daughter was Deokman.
No, it is not.
It's probably not me.
It's not me!
Hold on to her! Please, bring her back!
I must look at her face again!
I must hold hands with her!
I now see the princess in a different light.
How can she resort to such methods in order to teach someone a lesson?!
All she had to do is ask me nicely to follow her orders.
So, what is all this about?!
Are you one to follow orders just because someone asks you nicely?
Even so... She shouldn't be doing it like this, right?
Although, I didn't tell you, but...
I told the princess about everything.
The princess...
knows why I came to Gyerim, why I wanted to meet with Munno.
And why I had to pretend to be a male,
in order to remain as a Nangdo.
She knows everything.
Being chased all the way here, right after I lost my mother.
So, how can she scare me like that with those nonsensical words?!
I'm sorry.
You're sorry?
I can fathom what you're feeling right now, but...
At the moment, I haven't got the slightest clue, as to what I should do.
So, I am sorry for not knowing what to do.
Also...
all these matters that seem asinine...
are all true, so I am sorry for that.
You are... the Princess' younger sister.
How did you find out?
When I first met Deokman, she was looking for Munno.
She said this man named Chilsuk suddenly followed them all the way to the desert,
and tried to kill her mother.
Even then... I didn't realize.
Even after noticing the same birthmark behind both of our ears...
I still didn't realize.
Birthmark?
She has a birthmark? A birthmark?
Please bring her back.
Please go and bring her back! Please go!
Please give Deokman a break.
This is such a mind-blowing news.
This news has to be far more mind-blowing to Deokman than you and I both.
I will meet and talk to her first.
Mother, please wait. Just wait a bit longer.
I have...
never sat down in a crouched position like that before.
I was taught that it wasn't proper for a princess to be like that.
- Therefore, now you mustn't... - What is the reason?
The reason why I was abandoned.
What is the reason why my parents had to abandon me,
and why Mishil was looking for me?
Shilla has a very old prophecy.
When a King has twins,
it will dry up the seeds from all Seonggeol* men.
*sacred bone
And that, when a King has twins,
all male heirs to the throne will disappear.
Therefore... As soon as we were born...
Mishil was planning to use this fact
to dethrone our mother, the Queen,
so she could become the queen herself.
His Majesty had to hide this fact.
That's why you...
Then, I guess nothing has changed since.
After seeing the appeals report that I submitted...
His Majesty tried to have me killed.
That is...
I came here for nothing.
If only I had gone to Rome with Cartan ahjussi at that time, then...
I could have lived a carefree life.
Deokman!
What do you think you're doing?!
Let go of me.
I said, let go of me!
Put that down!
I do n't want to! So, please just let go of me!
What?! Wh... What...?
Deokman?
Hey, what's wrong?!
Let go of me.
I told you to put that down!!
Deokman, just put that down first.
All of you, leave us.
There's no need! I'm the one who is leaving!
I told all of you to leave!!
I told you that I was leaving!
I was told that I shouldn't be here!
I survived through the sandstorm...
and after coming here, I even managed to survive the war.
After overcoming life threatening crisis...
Damn it!
To think that I was in for some glory...
And after coming this far...
I was told that I shouldn't be here!
The things I hate the most in this world is being bothersome and being shameless.
Don't go!
But, if you keep insisting on going, then...
You leave me no choice but to lock you inside.
Don't go!
I come to this place when my mind is utterly confused.
I'm not sure if my methods will work for you,
but stay here for the time being.
Although...
I train here by repeatedly striking at a boulder with my sword, but...
For you, I just want you to clear your mind.
You will have some peace.
There's a small hut down below, so you can sleep there.
I understand, so you can leave now.
I won't run away.
Where in the world did you go last night?
And, why does your face look so clouded?
What do you mean by "clouded"?
Your Majesty?
The princess came to give you her morning greeting.
Tell her to come in.
Did you rest comfortably last night?
I am fine,
but it seems as though the Queen went through something unpleasant.
But, she won't tell a thing.
Perhaps, do you know?
What is it?
What is this thing that made it necessary
for her to use the palanquin in order to venture out of the palace at late night?
Your Majesty, actually...
Actually, Lord Beoksoon had asked to see me briefly.
Your father did?
Yes.
It was in regards to my brother's wedding matters.
And since it is difficult for my father to get around,
he requested me to pay him a brief visit.
Then, why didn't you just tell me?
Lately,
I've been unable read what mood you're in,
so in trying to be cautious, I ended up causing you more concerns.
My apologies.
Your Majesty?
It is time for you to proceed over to the assembly hall.
Understood.
I was certainly thinking that you would have already told his majesty.
A father is different from a mother.
And a father is even more different than a king.
After I had the two of you,
and before I could even catch my breath, his majesty had already made his decision.
Which means...
he already knew that child had to be sent away in order for you and I to live.
Even more so, now...
Weren't you aware?
Aware of what?
Sohwa has returned.
Pardon?! By Sohwa, you mean...
Deokman's Mom?!
Yes, that palace maid.
She has been alive this whole time?!
So, you weren't aware of this fact?
No... So, how could she possibly...?
This is my mom.
Then... that palace maid is...
That palace maid is...
Chilsuk has returned as well.
Chilsuk?!
Soon after Sohwa died while being pursued by Chilsuk in the desert...
In order to find out who she is, Deokman somehow ended up coming all the way here.
So, that's what happened.
Then... it was Chilsuk who was the one who brought back Sohwa!
Fortunately, we were able to hide Sohwa inside the palace, but...
Where is she?! I must meet with her immediately!
You cannot! Not right now!
I'm feeling uneasy about something.
Then, what should we do?
Deokman's inner scar must be very deep.
First and foremost, I have to save my daughter.
Yes. For the time being, until we fully assess the situation,
I'll have Deokman flee to a safe location.
Also, no one must know about Sohwa, especially Deokman, even more so.
Yes...
If she knows, then she is liable to make matters worse.
After observing her,
I don't think she has the capacity to have come up with the appeals report incident.
That seems to be the case.
Then, the all signs point to Mishil as the one responsible for creating this incident.
But, why would Mishil... Something just doesn't add up.
That's him.
Did Hwarangs come here recently to investigate?
Yes, Sir.
I thought it was finished, so why are you coming here again?
What were they able to find out?
Pardon?!
That someone exchanged the ink holder for a penguin's scrotum.
Who?
I don't know exactly, but it may have been a nangdo.
But, why do you ask? They even confiscated the ink holder at that time!
They're probably questioning the merchant at this time.
You're certain...
that Daedeung Eulje suddenly stopped in the middle of examining the nangdos, right?
Yes, Sir.
Without even capturing a suspect?
No, Sir.
After receiving his majesty's summon,
Lord Eulje and Lord Yongchun stopped the examinations from going any further.
General?
Who is he?
This is him...
He's the one who gave the penguin's scrotum in exchange for the ink holder.
He said, Imjong came back to confiscate the ink holder
citing that it was a stolen property.
I want all of you to take him around quietly,
and have him take a look at the faces of every single nangdo.
Yes, Sir!
As you were.
Archeon Rang?
After finishing with your Bo-Staff training,
how about competing against my clan, Cheonryong Ikdo?
Competition?
We can prepare for the Beejae* coming up next month,
*Hwarang competition
but more than that, Bicheon Jido possesses superior skills...
Do you recognize anyone?
- No, not here. - Damn!
Okay.
Ok then, you got it.
Where is Imjong Rang?
He's on duty today over at the assembly hall.
That's right.
Then, where are Yonghwa Hyangdo training at?
At the training facility that's located behind the mountain shelter.
Understood.
Loosen your shoulders, you wretch! Loosen it up! You wretch, what's this?
Hey, listen to your weak yell!
Because you're fat, so how can you yell properly?
Loosen your shoulders, you wretches! I said, loosen it! Hurry! I'm trying!
The princess is looking for Yushin Rang.
He is not here.
Then, how about Nangdo Deokman?
Both of them are together.
Last night, they were really going at it.
Then, can you personally go and explain it to the princess?
Sure, sure. I'll do it.
Keep on training!
Let's go.
Keep on training!
I'm coming too! Me too!
Yushin Rang wasn't there?
No, Ma'am.
I'm not sure exactly what's going on,
but last night, both Yushin Rang and Deokman
was yelling at each other and had a huge fight.
Then, Yushin Rang said he was going to take Deokman to mount Yeoham's training ground.
All that remains is Ihwa Jeongdo and Cheonshi Wondo...
So, he isn't here?
No, Sir.
Isn't that the princess?
What brings the princess here at Nangmun?
Ov... over there... That's him!
Which one? The fat one or the small one?
The small one.
Yushin Rang?
How is she?
It's not such an easy matter to handle and deal with.
You're right. The two sisters have met, but yet,
we haven't been able to call each other unni or donsaeng.
The fact that Deokman is my younger sister...
Is such a great news...
But... Why did this thing turn out this way?
What do you plan on doing?
My mother believes this situation is a lot worse than I had previously thought.
Then... are you just planning on sending Deokman away like this?
As to what Deokman said, will it be better if Deokman was not here in Gyerim?
Once she is at mount Joongak,
I will do whatever that is necessary to figure out a way out of this.
I shall come back tomorrow.
Yushin Rang?
Thank you for staying by my side.
Without you,
how could I possibly have been able to handle all this by myself.
You must...
always stay by my side.
I took a dump, but my stomach still hurts.
Hyung, hurry up and come out!
Why aren't you coming out?
I'll be heading back first.
Archeon Rang?!! Archeon Rang?!!
What's the matter?
One of our nangdo, Jukbang has disappeared.
Please help us! We think he has be kidnapped!
Kidnapped?
Why would he be kidnapped?
We don't know that either.
Why did you bypass Yushin Rang by coming to me?
He's not around at the moment.
But, isn't Jukbang the one that is known for always making excuses first?
He's probably somewhere having fun.
He's definitely not doing that!
How are you so certain?
That is... He disappeared yesterday in the middle of the night, and also...
To be honest... The truth is...
Tell me truth! Are you hiding something?!
Are you going to beat up on me again?
Ask me anything! I will tell you whatever you want to know! So, just ask me!!
Yes, Sir!
Are you referring to the merchant that sold the penguin's scrotum?
Yes, it was definitely that merchant
along with Seokpum Rang, Deokchung Rang, and Bakui Rang,
and together, they had that look of checking out all nangdos.
Why would they look into a matter that has been investigated already?
I beg of you! I beg of you! So please, just ask me!
I'll answer all you questions! So please, I beg of you!
I'm going to ask him some questions.
If he says he doesn't know, he can't remember,
or if he answers late, then behead him on the spot.
Yes, Sir!
You must answer my questions immediately.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
What did you do when you broke into the assembly hall?
What did you say?!
Who would re-open a matter that has already been resolved?
It appears to be the work of Seokpum, Deokchung,
and Bakui from the defense department.
It also appears with certainty that Nangdo Jukbang
of Yonghwa Hyangdo was dragged away at night.
It's Lord Seolwon!
Actually,
Yonghwa Hyangdo's Jukbang and Godo
were the ones who infiltrated the assembly hall.
What?!
So, you're saying that it was the work of Yonghwa Hyangdo?!
Tell me. What was your reason for infiltrating the assembly hall?
It was for Jang... Janggye...
Janggye~Appeals reports that are submitted for the king.
I was supposed to break into the assembly hall
and find the tray of reports that are delivered to his majesty...
So, all I did was put the Janggye on the tray and left afterward.
What was written on there?
I don't know! I swear! I really don't know!
I... I didn't see it! I didn't see it!
Really... I really didn't see it!
What's the matter?
Where is the minister of defense?! It's an urgent matter!
He said the Hwarangs who work for the defense department
had captured a thief who infiltrated the palace.
So, he went there to observe the interrogation.
Where?! It's urgent! Where?!
I don't know! I really don't know!
Why would I lie... knowing the situation that I'm in?!
You wretch!!
This man truly doesn't know.
Then, who is the person who asked you to do this?
Was it the princess?
Was it Kim Seohyeon?
I'm not going to ask you again.
Who was it?
It was Nangdo... Deokman!
Deokman?!
Yes, Sir.
A mere nangdo couldn't have commanded you to do this.
Who is the master mind?
I really don't know who that is... Really! I really don't know!
You bastard!
Kill him!
Yes, Sir!
Stop!!!
Daedeung? What bring you here to the defense department?
I've heard that you captured the thief responsible for the assembly hall incident.
Yes, the Hwarangs captured and brought him here.
This matter does not fall under the jurisdiction of the defense department.
The assembly hall falls under the jurisdiction of the Naesong.
Naesong~Department in charge of all royal family affairs.
Once caught, you should have reported this fact to me in the first place!
Although, this matter belongs to the Naesong,
but the fact that the assembly hall was infiltrated,
also makes this a national matter, and perhaps, he could have been a spy.
That is also a judgment that should be handed down by Naesong!
How could you disregard the procedures
set forth for each department, and handle this matter in this fashion?!
Hand him over!
As you wish.
Take him.
Yes, Sir!
Daegam Kim Seohyeon?
There are times when I wonder
if you truly belong to the department of defense.
Oh! Hyungnim!
From now on, you must answer all my questions truthfully!
Is it true that you infiltrated into the assembly hall?
Yes, Sir.
Why did you go in there? On whose order?
Deokman... It was done on Deokman's behalf.
So, the one who knows the whereabouts
of the seoyeopdo was not palace maid Sohwa nor Mishil, but it was Nangdo Deokman?
How is that possible?
That's impossible!
There's no way that a mere nangdo could have conjured up such an audacious plan.
That's right. It's with certainty that a master mind is behind this.
The master mind behind this plan must be found out with urgency.
Isn't it obvious!? Deokman is like a subordinate of the princess.
It's not the princess.
It's not the princess...
After all, the reports are delivered to his majesty.
Yes, and without directly talking to his majesty,
the princess has no reason to secretly place an appeals report.
And since Daedeung Eulje personally investigated this matter,
it's not him either.
Although, there is Yushin Rang,
but he is the closest confidant to the princess,
so there's no reason for him to take such a high risk.
Then,
in other words, it means that Deokman acted independently on his own accord...
Deokman had something he needed to directly tell his majesty...
Why?! Why would a mere nangdo do such a thing?!
In any case, it appears that Deokman is deeply intertwined in this matter.
Deokman?
What's on your mind?
Do you feel like blaming someone?
Truthfully...
I'm not thinking about anything...
No, wait...
I don't even know what I should be thinking about.
When I was once a daughter of a mother who appeared to be lacking...
I felt like a smart and a great person.
But ever since I heard about the truth...
My tears just keeps flowing.
After I lost my mom...
I really hadn't shed any tears...
But now...
my tears just keeps flowing.
Something strange happened to me...
It feels like I've disappeared.
I'm going back to the desert.
Deokman?!
Because, in the desert... tears dry up faster.
I should have just stayed in the desert.
But, Deokman?!
We're sisters, so we should be fighting Mishil together, and...
But, I should be nonexistent!
You said, I'm a person who should be nonexistent!
How can a nonexistent person become a sister, and be able to lend any strength?!
For a person who shouldn't exist, becoming nonexistent...
is the right thing to do.
Deokman?! Please, just have trust in me!
I'm very grateful...
in knowing how much effort you put forth just trying to hold on to me.
I will never forget.
Please! Hold on to Deokman!
She won't listen to me at all!
What it took to finally meet with my younger sister!
In addition... at the moment of my birth,
my life was preserved by sacrificing Deokman...
Also, at a village camp and at Yeorae Temple...
I survived because of Deokman's good grace!
No, wait! If it hadn't been for that child...
I would have given up on the idea of fighting against Mishil.
I just can't send her away like this.
I need Deokman... and in the coming future,
I want to pay back Deokman for a lot of things!
But...
we won't be able give Deokman what she wants.
Deokman's identity,
and Deokman's pride... Those are things that we won't be able to return to her.
Deokman is a child with a strong sense of self-pride and self-worth.
And that's why she was so strong.
To Deokman, Gyerim is a place that took all that away from her.
Then, what do you suggest that I do?
What should I do?!
Please, do not try to only understand Deokman!
For my sake...
For my sake, please hold on to Deokman!
I just can't send her away like this!
If you end up losing to Mishil, then come to the desert.
What is Yonghwa Hyangdo to you?!
To you, was Yonghwa Hyangdo just a means for you to find your identity?!
Jukbang, Godo, Daepung, Goksaheun, and the late Shiyeol...
Are they nothing to you?!
No, wait! Damn it!
I, Kim Yushin... Your commander!
I... What am I?! Am I nothing to you?!
Answer me now!
Answer me!
That's not true...
For me, they are my most precious friends...
And as for you, Yushin Rang...
You're a precious person to me as well.
Then, I will tell you what I really think...
I hate the fact that you could become a princess...
But instead, just stay as Nangdo Deokman.
The Yonghwa Hyangdo who's always getting scolded...
And I just want you to be my Nangdo Doekman!
I beg of you!
I won't be able to help you find the self that you were originally seeking...
But, from now on, I can help you start forming a new self!
You and I together, let's start forming the new you!
Is that plausible?
As long as I don't lose you...
I will make it happen!
And who knows?! It could happen!
I beg of you with the utmost sincerity!
So, Nangdo Deokman was the one who submitted the appeals report?
Yes, Your Majesty.
But, how?
How can that child know about the seoyeopdo?
The princess is now entering.
Did you call for me?
Princess, I'm the one who asked to see you.
Nangdo Deokman tried to submit an appeals report by sneaking into the assembly hall.
Deokman did?
Do you know anything about this?
No, I don't.
So, you're saying that it wasn't your order.
Then, it means that he just acted independently on his own accord.
Perhaps, another mastermind could be behind this.
Then, wouldn't that be Mishil?
It doesn't appear that way, Your Majesty.
Because Mishil is also investigating this matter as well.
Then, you're telling me that Mishil has connections to that appeals report?
No, Sire.
Also, Sohwa could never have done something like this.
No. She's in no condition to do such a thing.
It's with certainty that it was Nangdo Deokman's doing.
But, for what reason would that child have to do something like that?
If you don't know,
then it's more imperative that we find the mastermind behind this matter.
Your Majesty, if Mishil's side is able to discover something more,
then it will greatly pose a big problem for us.
Then, what do you suggest that we do?
First... We mustn't allow palace maid Sohwa to remain in the palace.
Then, where are we going to send Sohwa?
We must send her outside of Gyerim.
Now, I have done all I could.
After a few days, take off the cloth, and see how you're doing.
When can I take it off?
You must wait at least a week.
I hope Heaven's blessing is with you.
Please allow me to meet with Lady Mishil.
I have something to tell her.
Please wait. I'm sure she has a plan.
By chance... Could His Majesty's side have already done something?
Princess? Nangdo Deokman is...
Go and check outside.
Yes, Ma'am.
Have a seat.
Princess?
I will be leaving.
Deokman?
So, all I have to do is go to mount Joongak, right?
What? Then...
Yes, I will do as you wish.
I was told that Deokman was at a training ground in mount Yeoham, so I sent my vassals,
but he wasn't there.
And also, he hasn't returned to the mountain hideout either.
Since Yushin Rang is nowhere to be found, it just seems very odd.
I'm really thankful that you changed your mind.
And also, I'm really sorry, but you must leave here as soon as possible.
Both His Majesty and Mishil now knows that you were the one
who submitted the appeals report at the assembly hall.
I'm sorry for making you leave as if you were being chased away, but...
Once you've settle down at mount Joongak,
I will then send you a very big present.
It will certainly make you rejoice.
Your nangdo, Deokman is nowhere to be found. Where is he?
He was sent out on a training mission.
Why do you ask?
Deokman seems to be involved in a big matter.
Since this matter has major significance to Shilla...
I'm concerned that harm will come to your precious nangdo.
Now, you must not trust anyone inside the palace.
That is the only way you can save your nangdo.
Only, have trust in me.
Have trust in me and bring Deokman to me immediately.
Go and arrest Deokman.
This matter is for the sake of the royal family and Shilla.
Follow Yushin immediately, and you'll be able to find the whereabouts of Deokman.
Let's go quickly! My horse is right next to the shrine!
Hurry!
He is lying to Yushin Rang in order to catch Deokman,
so I'm having a hard time judging if this order is righteous or not.
All we have to do is follow orders. We do not make judgments.
That is...
Get on quickly!
Yes, Sir.
Yushin Rang?!!

What are you looking for?
All this is for the sake of the royal family!
I'm also doing it for the sake of the royal family!
I'm a mother.
If you're the mother, then?
Who is this person?
How did you find out?
We should have sent Deokman far away on a boat to China.
How could you hand down such an order!
In order to protect the royal family,
I told you that I'm willing to turn any fate upside down!
Did you tell His Majesty about Deokman being the other twin?!
Drag them out!
Jukbang and Godo has disappeared.
Daedeung Euje...
will kill Deokman.
I came to see you.
Can you help me?
