[This is a fictional story based on actual historical figures and events]
Send In Yub over here.
What if I don't want to?
She'll die if she's by your side. Send her to me.
Come over here.
Let us go.
He's the son of the man who was going to kill you.
He got hurt while trying to save me.
I want to take him to a safe place, at least.
It's okay. I can go alone.
This will be the last time. Just this once. Let me do this.
Son!
What happened? Final Episode
Where and how did you get hurt?
What happened? Why is my mother still here?
She refuses to go on the boat.
She wanted to see for herself that her family is safe.
She wouldn't take one step.
You shouldn't blame her. I chose not to go.
I'm fine, Mother.
What are you talking about?
You're bleeding so much. And your face is so pale.
What happened to my father?
The King's men probably went to our house.
He's been arrested.
But, he has a plan prepared for the family.
If you follow the plan, you'll be able to leave the city safely.
Thank you.
What is it with you?
What kind of person are you?
This is all happened because of you.
You ruined my son!
- Mother. - Am I wrong?
I cannot do anything about my husband, who has been taken by this nation.
But it is In Yub who made you this way!
Nobody in our family has any right to say anything to In Yub.
We ruined In Yub's household...
and put In Yub in her current situation.
If anyone from our family harms a hair on her head...
I will die.
Is everything over now?
I congratulate you.
I hear you finally received the royal seal.
All thanks to your hard work.
Bringing my father to me.
Now that I've inherited the royal seal, the royal family is stable.
All of this is your achievement.
Also, I should thank you for raising my son to be a great man.
I wonder if he would've turned out as well if I had raised him myself.
His compassion and maturity will be of great value to the future of Joseon.
Are you saying the Prince will be given important tasks?
Even though you admit Moo Myung has great potential
you'll forever be untrusting of him and plagued with suspicions.
He once had his sword pointed at you.
Many nights, you'll wake up from the nightmares of that day.
You will forever feel insecure and uneasy.
Wondering what your son's true intentions are.
Thinking 'will he come attacking his father again?'.
Remember this, Your Majesty.
Although I may disappear, Man Wol's motive will continue to exist.
Since you will be gone, you won't be able to confirm the final outcome.
Neither will your son, who will soon be arrested.
At least you won't be lonely on your long journey.
Your Majesty! Your Majesty!
You grace is immeasurable, Your Majesty.
I couldn't complain even if you decided to dismember me.
But you mercifully decided to exile me instead.
When I come back, I will dedicate the rest of my life to serving you.
My life, and everything I have, all belong to you.
Don't worry about that.
You...
will never step on Han Yang's land again.
Your Majesty... Your Majesty!
Your Majesty...
I will always think of you, wherever I am!
Your Majesty!
There will be a day you will ask for me!
Your Majesty!
Hey, is anyone there?
Let me see the Defense Minister!
Is there anyone there?
That's enough, Mother. You'll pass out at this rate.
Look here!
Gosh, so noisy!
Did you say it's noisy?
Sister-in-law, who were you saying that to?
I mean, Father-in-law is also locked away.
How can we see him?
I'm just saying, stop wasting your strength.
And I'm so hungry.
Is nobody there? Call the Defense Minister now!
Shut your mouth! You annoying woman.
Defense Minister or whoever, how can I bring him when he's being exiled?
Did you say exiled?
Is that true? Where is he being sent?
If you have the strength to yell, preserve it.
You'll be walking to Pyung Yang.
Did you say Pyung Yang?
You'll go as maids or courtesans.
In... including me? Are you saying I will go too?
I am a married woman. Me as a courtesan...
It is inappropriate, no?
Are you Lady Kang?
Yes, yes! I am from the Kang family.
Hey, open the door here.
No! Go back inside.
I'm from the Kang family.
Your parents are here for you.
What is this? Only my sister-in-law gets to go?
If one marries into a traitor family unknowingly, divorce is granted.
You are the ones who told me about it.
I can either choose to be punished, or sever ties with my cheating husband.
Was it Pyung Yang?
If I end up going there for a trip, I'll come by and say hello.
Let's go now. Hurry.
That...
vicious wench.
Oh, Yoon Ok...
- Stop crying please... - What do we do?
My life is cursed!
You should leave now.
You've done as much as you can.
Your wound is not healing. I don't think I can do much.
- Maybe it's better to get a physician. - I said you should go.
I'll go after I see you getting on the boat.
You pity me, right?
I don't need your pity.
I also know Moo Myung is hovering nearby.
He's getting on my nerves too. Just go.
I know that... this is the last time.
Even if you stay alive, we'll never get to see each other again.
I wanted to show you just a little bit more before I go.
After I became a maid, all I did was get angry at you.
I feel you only got to see my bad side since then.
It would hurt me in the future to think back.
Even if it's just a few last days with you
I wanted to create memories that I can reminisce on.
Thank you.
For not disregarding me...
in your last memories.
I hope you leave the city safely.
Wherever you are, be healthy.
Any more than this is dangerous. This is it.
Thank you. For giving Eun Ki time.
If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have forgiven him.
I know it was a difficult decision for you.
I received a tip that traitor Kim Eun Ki is here.
Where is he hiding?
Search the house, inside and out.
- And block all roads. - Yes, sir!
Run directly to the docks.
Our man will be waiting with a boat.
Thank you.
Mother, I'm fine. Let's go.
I think it's better to split up.
Since they are searching for a mother and a son
we'll be spotted more easily if we are together.
We can't split up. You're not even in good shape.
We can meet at the docks.
I'll run out now.
You should go straight to the docks.
No, we shouldn't. Let's go together.
I'm a terrible son who only brought you hardships.
I don't want to be the one bringing danger to you now.
There's no meaning to my life if I survive alone.
My son... I need my son.
I won't die.
Trust me, and do as I ask.
I will see you at the docks.
Son... Son!
Son!
Son, you can't! Son!
Son...
There he is!
Catch him... Get him!
Here, take a sip.
Hold on.
What is this?
When I was in Ham Heung...
I got this from King Taejo.
Since the King pardoned our family...
your household was not reinstated.
No matter how things unfolded...
I wanted to make sure your status as noblewoman can be restored.
So, I had put in a special request to King Taejo.
The State Councilor was framed and died unjustly.
You know this well.
Yes, he should be exonerated.
And his daughter, who suffered significantly, should be reinstated.
As a precaution, perhaps you can issue an official appointment letter...
What do you think?
An appointment letter?
With you as the King, support has been growing.
But, nobody can guarantee the outcome.
For people who suffered injustice
I ask that you leave a token of consideration.
So even if we fail, let us at least save In Yub?
With all due respect, I ask you.
A man should have a pure heart like that. Yes!
Okay, okay, I will. I will gladly write one up.
Hey! Bring me a brush!
This confirms that your father is not a traitor...
and that he was appointed by King Taejo for a secret task.
It's King Taejo's official appointment letter.
I'm sure the King will accept it.
Eun Ki...
I have a favor to ask you, In Yub.
This isn't going to work.
I don't think you can go to the docks. I'll bring a physician.
Promise me one thing.
In our next lives...
let's never break up...
and stay together forever.
Let's be born into ordinary families...
so we don't get intertwined in a mess like we did in this life.
And live our lives, caring for each other.
I'm sorry for hurting you.
No, that's not true. No...
I... I wanted to...
I only wanted to give you love.
I am sorry...
I am sorry, In Yub...
No, no... Eun Ki.
Eun...
Eun Ki...
No.
You reported to the authorities about Kim Eun Ki.
But I hear all they got was his corpse?
When he came to the courtesan house, he was already wounded beyond recovery.
You were under Kim Chi Kwon's wing before you came to the palace.
Did you betray him, or are you working on another plan?
What woman in Joseon would choose something else over you?
Always striving for something higher...
and choose something better?
I won't deny that.
But...
Since there is no man above you in this nation...
wouldn't this be the last choice I make?
That's more solid than any declaration of loyalty and dedication.
Then... from now, will you live for me?
That's what I hope for.
The Lady safely boarded the boat.
As for Master Eun Ki...
he could not board the boat.
Did he get arrested? Or is he on the run again?
Before he got to the docks, your son...
lost his life.
He was already seriously injured when he left his house with In Yub.
Are you satisfied now?
Your dream, passion, and greed...
did this to Eun Ki.
Moo Myung, a prince, lived surrounded by deceit, and I lost my father.
You, too, probably lost a lot.
After so much loss...
what did you end up gaining?
You grew up as a child of Joseon. You won't understand.
You lived according to your will. You can probably accept the outcomes.
But Eun Ki and I had no choice in our lives.
Who will compensate us?
Who will hear about the injustice we suffered?
If we had reclaimed the throne, everything would've been resolved.
Do you know what Eun Ki's last words were?
He said he wanted to be born into an ordinary family.
You know what kind of person Eun Ki was, right?
He was the most upright, most warm
and generous person.
He was a good son to his parents.
He was fully committed to the one he loved.
He was touted as the best at Sung Kyun Kwan.
You just lost that precious son.
How can you be so unaffected like this?
Let's go back.
He's already received the greatest punishment.
Even if you are in the other world, don't go near Eun Ki.
You, Lord...
do not have the right to be by Eun Ki's side.
Moo Myung.
As the leader of Man Wol, I have one last favor to ask.
Before I die, I would like to get the shrine room taken care of.
Before I get my death sentence, to show my respect to the Koryo royal family
I want to pay my last reverence.
The King will give leniency in this matter.
Put down a straw mat.
Hm... goodness.
Tell him to hurry and receive his poison.
He has had enough time.
Heo Eung Cham's wife and daughter will be sent to Pyung Yang as maids.
Servant Poong Yi will go to General Jung's household.
You're lucky. You get to stay in Han Yang.
Heo Eung Cham's daughter is staying in the city.
Mother.
Change the appointment.
I cannot be separated from my daughter.
Lady.
I completely understand you not wanting to be separated from your daughter.
Consider all the payments you received from my household.
You should not be treating me this way.
You are not a proper person if you can't recognize the favors you've received.
Mother!
Do you think this is my first time dealing with a wench like you?
How dare you! Once Lord Heo is back, you won't be able to survive this!
Lord Heo? You mean that man who was exiled to Jeju Island?
Now that your husband's been exiled
he won't be able to set one foot off that island.
He won't ever see the sun shining again.
You two ought to know that you're quite lucky.
You have a good owner who generously will allow you two to stay together.
Dan Ji and your mother, Dduk Swe, and Gae Ddong...
there is a place that will take you, so you can wait.
What is this? Everyone's grouped off.
Am I the only one that's all alone?
That's fine. I have to live life on my own anyways.
I do not want to enter the palace.
You got Father to give me the royal seal.
You even destroyed Man Wol all the way down to its roots.
Now you say you won't enter the palace. What are you thinking?
Even if I have royal blood...
it does not erase the fact that I have lived a rough life.
Rather than expose my inadequacies and become troublesome for the family...
I'd like to live as I always have, quietly hidden.
Our new nation has not found stability yet.
You should be helping your father in building this nation.
When I acted as a mediator between you and King Taejo, I had a request.
What I want is the freedom to leave.
Is no one else here?
Why are you working alone?
I'm just cleaning my own house.
You're back to being a Miss like before.
So I thought you wouldn't do household chores anymore.
It feels strange not to do anything.
Congratulations on getting your status back.
How does it feel?
It doesn't feel real yet. I still feel like a maid.
It's because you keep working.
Thank you.
What's with the 'thank you'?
If not for you, this day would have never come.
If not for me, you might not have had to go through this at all.
Stop feeling guilty about it already.
I won't ever forget...
how sad I made you feel.
I'll always remember the pain I made you feel.
And I'll make sure to be good to you.
Oh, right. I heard you refused to accept all the servants.
They are your right to own.
You should accept all the assets that were taken from you.
Everything that was yours in the past, they will give it back to you.
Are you going to live all by yourself in this big house?
In Yub!
You found it!
Everyone in this neighborhood knows your place.
Every dog and cow knows it too.
Gae Ddong! Watch your tongue. She's our Miss now.
Oh yeah! That's right.
What Miss? Just treat me as you always have.
How can we do that? We're here to be servants.
Don't say that. I only brought you here so you don't suffer elsewhere.
I didn't bring you here to work you to death.
I was going to replace Sa Wol and be your personal maid.
You? I don't think so.
You'd probably spit in my water and give me meat that was stuck on your butt.
Hey! We only do that to owners that deserve to be treated like that.
Do you think we always do that? We have pride in our work, too.
Oh...
What happened to Lady Yoon and Miss Yoon Ok?
Have you heard any news?
A Councilor? Those untalented scoundrels!
Someone else must have been promoted?
I'm sorry. I made an assumption.
It reminded me of my husband, who'd get sensitive around this time of the year.
Here you go.
I heard that people with no skills would get promoted.
- He would always get so angry. - Isn't that the truth!
The cursed old scoundrel!
I should have known a few days back when he was sucking up to the Minister.
Lord.
Isn't this like having to sweep the floors, but you end up finding coins?
This is a heaven-sent opportunity.
So... how is it lately? How is the housework going?
I do feel it is a waste of my abilities.
- Your abilities? - Yes.
Who am I?
I was the Lady of a household that had hundreds, no thousands, of servants.
With a household this size, I can grow it like the grass grows.
But, I get looked down upon for being a newcomer and I do useless tasks.
Are you looking to be Head Maid?
There's no reason why I wouldn't be able to do it.
Would you like another drink?
Forget the past, and let it all go.
And, just survive.
Whether you have to eat burnt rice or wash dirty diapers, just survive.
Isn't that the only way you'll get revenge or whatever?
Isn't that true?
If the masters wake up, there's no revenge or anything.
Be quiet! Us low-born can't scream carelessly.
Why am I a low-born?
- You are! - I'm a noble!
Are you totally insane?
I'm a noble!
Be quiet.
- Hey. Get me some salt. - Okay.
I confessed my feelings to you last time.
What kind of a man doesn't take the next step?
Next step? What next step?
Look at Dan Ji!
Master Yoon Seo is good at breaking the rules.
What kind of a girl says things like that?
Take this.
As for the next step, it's in your hands.
Father... I'm here.
It's your daughter, In Yub.
Just like you said...
I lived and made it this far.
I didn't die.
I didn't give up.
I endured and endured again... And I made it this far.
But...
No one is by my side.
You're not with me, and neither is Sa Wol.
What do you mean you're alone? Aren't I a person?
Lord, my name is Moo Myung.
I'm a man who has nothing and has no education.
But, my heart for In Yub will be forever steadfast and overflowing.
This person who has been left alone in this world... I will protect her.
Who says you can?
I never said yes to that.
This is a token of affection the King gave to my mother.
This is a precious thing.
You should keep it safe.
My parents' love did not last. I think you and I will be different.
This is how I feel. Please receive it.
I won't bother you. I can give you all the time you need.
Sa Wol said this...
She said that I lived two lives.
When I lived as a noble lady, I loved Eun Ki.
When I lived as a maid, I loved you.
You're no longer a maid.
And Kim Eun Ki is no longer in this world.
You've lived two lives too.
One as an assassin of Man Wol, and the other as a servant.
Now, we both have a third life to live.
So, is it time to make our third choice?
The Prince is refusing to accept his true identity.
Did you know he has not yet entered the palace?
It seems you did not know.
What is it that you want to say?
The King insists this is all because of you, Miss.
So... is he planning to come after me, again?
Since you've been married once and do not have parents...
it will be difficult for you to marry again.
He is willing to find you a good husband through royal command.
If so, he believes the Prince will be able to get over his feelings for you.
I understand the King's intentions. However, the choice is mine.
He is the Prince of a nation.
Though, he wasn't raised as a prince
he is not someone you should be setting your sights on, Miss.
Why are you sitting in the dark?
I should... leave, shouldn't I?
Miss.
Because I was able to die protecting you...
do you know how happy that made me?
I'm sure Master Eun Ki felt the same way.
Moo Myung too. Rather than the glory of being a Prince...
he probably prefers being with you.
Everyone acted as such because they wanted to.
Everyone chose the path that brought them joy.
Goodness! What are you doing?
The work has become a part of you, hasn't it?
Let me do it.
Even if we're friends, I can't live here doing nothing.
I'm all done.
I wanted to prepare a meal for Moo Myung.
I wanted to prepare it with my own hands.
When are you having the wedding?
What wedding?
You're going to live together without getting married?
Oh...
I received meals from you many times
during our time in the servant's quarters.
Today feels very different.
I prepared it with a different heart today.
Why don't you eat with me?
No.
This meal is all for you.
Eat.
Thanks for the food.
It tastes good.
The love that Eun Ki gave me and everything you taught me about life...
I am so grateful and thankful for that time in my life.
So I hope you understand why I had to leave like this.
It's not that I don't trust your feelings for me.
And I'm not pretending I didn't notice what you were hoping for.
But leaving like this... is my love for you.
Please understand.
Have you seen In Yub?
She left last night.
She said she'd be going to the temple.
She asked us to watch over the house.
In Yub...
Eun Ki.
Thank you.
For not disregarding me... in your last memories.
[One Year Later]
Even the rumors are not questioned.
Take a look at this.
Look at this one too.
Here, here!
Illustrations of sexual acts better than the real thing!
Just released! The second book to the Mistress Chun Hyang.
Hurry, hurry! Come over here!
Good, good!
When your wife is all of a sudden angry at you...
Welcome!
Take a look at this.
This isn't my first circus.
Even the surplus stock is better than this.
Do you have any idea what this is? Do you know what you're doing?
- You can go! Leave! - Hey! Hey!
You look radiant!
- You must be rolling in the dough. - Why are you here again?
You are going to ruin your family!
Don't you see I won these?
I'm not here to pawn these. I just came to cash these out.
Oh, goodness, Cham!
What is all this mess? You've spilled everywhere.
Oh, did you have fun?
Mom, was I like this when I was little?
I don't know who he takes after, but he's a handful.
Well, you can't hide the bloodline.
My...
Mommy!
Dan Ji!
Your husband is here, Dan Ji.
Husband!
My husband!
- Dan Ji. - Oh my goodness!
Oh my!
- My goodness, this is my son? - Yes.
- What's his name? - It's Cham.
Why didn't you name him Joong?
I'm your dad.
Wow, In Yub gave all this to us?
Where is she, anyways?
I have no idea. It's been a year already.
Moo Myung is searching for her everywhere.
Dan Ji. You've been through so much.
Dan Ji, you don't need to worry about anything from now on.
Here.
Oh, wait.
No, don't be shocked yet. Yes, this.
Wait, what's that over there?
Hold on!
Don't be shocked. They are everywhere.
- It's all yours. - What's all this?
What exactly did you learn from the exile?
No matter how difficult it got, you were a nobleman once.
You can't resort to stealing. Take it back.
What are you thinking?
What theft? It's all my talent.
- Talent? - All hard-earned.
Husband, you earned this?
I'm embarrassed.
This is awkward.
I mean, with this? How...
- Should I give you more? - Wow.
The goat willows are flowering everywhere.
Is it April already?
