Episode 18
What is that sound?
Criminal Kim Eun Oh, come out and receive this order.
Well..that was..
What? What's wrong?
Why are you doing this?
Let me go!
What is this?
You bastards!
Get out!
What are all of you?
Are you...
Miryang's Magistrate, Kim Eun Oh?
Who are you?
He's Lord Park Moon Ho, the Provincial Governor of Gyeongsang Province.
Pro... Provincial Governor?
Provincial Governor?
What brought you here, Lord Provincial Governor?
Why did you come here without any notice and make all this ruckus?
Miryang's Magistrate, Kim Eun Oh!
You conspired for a high treason by using your position as the Magistrate,
and planned to rebel, so you're under arrest now.
I will reveal all your crimes, one by one, without missing any!
Take this man immediately!
Yes!
Young Master!
Put this personal slave of Kim Eun Oh in the jail too, as he planned the rebellion together.
Yes!
Rebellion? What are you talking about?
What high treason?
How could Dol Chief do such things as high treason or rebel....?
What should we do?
Shouldn't we report to Lord Choi about this...?
Won't you let me go?!
Let go!
What do you mean, "rebellion"? Is "Rebellion" someone's name, huh?
Let go! Let go!
Young Master, what on earth is this all about?
Rebellion and high treason?
Who set us up?
How can this happen if it's not a setup?
It's Lord Choi's doing.
The story on the letter you sent to me, is that really true?
Of course.
Whenever that Eol Ja bastard (an illegitimate son by a slave woman) opened his mouth, he said everything he did was per the Royal Command. This is obviously comtempt toward His Majesty!
Everything I wrote on that letter is all true without any lie.
You can see that if you investigate the origins of those patrol men right now.
But...
the fact that he's Lord Kim Eung Boo's son is a bit bothering me...
Are you sure if there would be no problem later?
It's even better.
This time, we can make a bundle of those two, and get rid of them at the same time.
Well, that's true that you have a deep grudge against his family.
Since the one who made you resign all position and came to this country side was Lord Kim...
I'm not letting any of them get away.
I'm going to cut them all down!
Welcome.
Sit down.
For what did you ask to see me?
What did the Magistrate's mother want in return for her body?
Why are you curious about that?
How great it would have been that she gave her body in return?
Where in this world can you find something more precious than oneself?
Are you curious about that?
The Magistrate's mother wanted revenge against Lord Choi.
But why is that old man still well?
The Magistrate's mother did not want to kill Lord Choi.
Then... what did she want?
She wanted him to spend his life kneeling at her feet.
and being in agony because of its submission and indignity.
Since Lord Choi already kneeled before me,
I didn't even have to use any other method.
All I needed to do was just go into that woman's body.
There's no way she would give her body for that reason.
If it was you, what would you want for you to give up your body?
Tell me.
What could it be that you want for you to throw yourself away?
Is it revenge?
Toward the person who killed you?
If not, is it to protect the people precious to you here?
Say it.
What would it be for you to throw yourself away?
I...
Lady.
Don't forget... the words I told you before.
Words?
At any moment, that you would not give yourself up for anything that you would want.
Whatever happens you would never give up on yourself,
please promise me that.
Young Master, why on earth are you together with that woman?
Daring b**ch!
She's not as easy as I thought.
When I said to get rid of the Magistrate...
Yes. I will do according to your order.
No.
Leave it for the time being.
Pardon?
My mind changed after I met that child today.
The reason why you couldn't get that girl's heart when I told you to get it....
I now understand.
Well, are you comfortable in this jail?
Since your slave is also in that state, I guess there would be no one who can supply things for you.
Should I get a person for you?
Oh, right!
There's that wench!
That ghost wench.
What?
Old man, what ghost-like things are you saying?
Dol Soe, stay still.
Getting supplies from a ghost in a jail...
I guess that can give you some special feeling too.
But if you go to the after world, what would happen to that wench?
Since she has a body which can't die, you two wouldn't be able to meet in the after world, either.
Oh, right. You're a grandson of Seo Joon Soo.
As long as it's alright with you,
how your maternal grandfather was torn in pieces and died in front of your mother,
I can tell you that in details, too.
Want to listen to it once?
Arrogant bastard. You won't be able to do anything.
Just like how your foolish mother wasn't able to do anything.
LORD CHOI!!!
What happened?
Aigoo!
Arang, where have you been that you're only here now?
What's wrong? Did something happen?
The office has been flipped upside down.
Lord Magistrate is locked in a jail.
What?!
Locked in a jail? Why?
It looks like he would be falsely charged for high treason!
It's nothing like other common charges but high treason, HIGH TREASON!
High treason?
What high treason? Why all of sudden high treason?
So that is, Lord Choi...
Rebellion...? What a bolt out of the blue?
High treason? If it's high treason, they wouldn't even ask any but kill him at once.
How on earth can this happen?
Magistrate!
Arang!
Agassi!
What is all this about?
Agassi!
Dol... Dol Soe!
Bang Wool!
What is all this?
Bang Wool.
We don't know what would happen, so go and stay at the Shaman's house.
Magistrate.
You need to go fast.
If Lord Choi sees you here, we don't know what he could do.
Bang Wool, you too, bring Agassi with you and go.
Okay.
Get out! Get out right away!
- Go! Get out! - Magistrate!
What in the world! What is this about?
How come the Magistrate is a rebel?
This is obviously a set-up, set-up!
Are we just going to stand here and watch?
Let' go there all together. At least, we should file some complaints!
This person wants trouble.
If guys like us go there as a group and say something about this,
then Lord Magistrate will be really cornered to be the leader of rebels.
Huh?
Don't make too much noise, and let's see how the things are going on.
Let's do that.
High treason?
Yes.
The Magistrate is put in a jail,
and today, the first interrogation will start.
I think...
Lord Choi made all these things up.
Then, what happened to the Magistrate's people?
Yes, his personal slave is locked with him as well, and...
Y... Young Master.
Move! Move!
Bring in the criminals.
Bring in the criminals!
Listen, Miryang's Magistrate, Kim Eun Oh.
You're accused for gathering commoners, Seo Ja (illegitimate son), Eol Ja (illegitimate son by a slave woman),
and lowly people, organizing a rebel party,
and conspiring high treason.
Therefore, in this interrogation,
you're temporarily dismissed from your position,
and I will interrogate and judge your crimes
so that all your crimes can be revealed clearly.
Because of the groundless false accusation,
you locked innocent people in jails
and charge high treason falsely? Is this country's law that much shabby?
What did you say? Groundless?
Then, about pulling out the laborers from the Royal villa construction site
and disguising them in patrol men for your private organization,
do you admit it?
I have never done that!
You filled most patrol positions with lowclass people,
Regardless of the person's identity.
What about the time you said you would give them positions in the government office?
This is an act to slacken the discipline of this country
and deceive the courtesy of the Royal Family and the Court..
Do you admit all your intention about those?
I can't acknowledge that!
Then your slave, Dol Soe...
did you or did you not give him a position in the Magistrate's office?
Y... Young Master.
Disregarding status,
That you made him a government official like you please.
Didn't you know that what you did is against the rules of this country and is equivalent to high treason?
What words can't you say?
I heard.
I heard that you are Minister's Kim Eung Do's eolja son.
For a Governor like me to come all the way to Miryang importunately like this,
to punish someone worthless like you is not my true intention.
As your Governor,
We have to show the citizens an example!
It will not lack anything.
Admit your criminal act immediately!
If you do so, I will at least spare your life.
What should we do about the Magistrate?
What are they saying that I can't understand. Hey you old man!
Agassi!
It will be trouble if you meddle into this.
Agassi, just think about the Magistrate.
To inform a criminal act that I haven't commited.
I have absolutely no thought of!
Whether you lock me in a cell or hang me up.
Do as you please!
What did you say?
If I really have committed a crime, I won't avoid it...
And receive the punishment.
Are you telling me you will hold out?
You foolish brats!
Watch and see what happens if you try to break the laws.
You have to know what kind of man he really is.
Let go!
You foolish people,
you got deceived by a Magistrate who is bewitched by a ghost.
You can't even distinguish poop from stew and just laugh.
What? Ghost?
What is he talking about? Did he just say ghost?
Yes.
I will take off his cunning mask.
This wench over here is not a human.
Hu... human. ..
Lord Choi, what are you talking about?
She's not human?
Old man, what nonsense are you talking about?
The evidence that this wench is a ghost, I will let you see.
Lord Choi!
NO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Look carefully, from now on.
This wench doesn't die no matter how much you kill her.
What?
DON'T LAY A HAND ON HER!
This bastard must have been desperate.
Who is lying and who is telling the truth,
We would know before our eyes.
WAIT!!!
I acknowledge... all of my crimes.
Let's set on end to this!
Stop it!
I'm telling you this wench is a ghost!
I said, stop it!

What on earth is this? It's like getting hit by a bolt!
That's what I want to say. Once we chose our line, how come he got locked in?
Moreover, even Dol Chief who is the closest subordinate to Magistrate!
We shouldn't have changed our line!
I wish Lord Choi accepts my loyalty again...
What are you talking about?
In times like this, we should get our acts together.
Using this opportunity, let us try saving the Magistrate.
How?
Should we wear masks and go to the jail to take Magistrate out?
Masks?
If you really want to be locked in a jail like that, you do by yourself!
Ah... I think some plan might come up or not...
What should we do?
In this case, we need something to carry at our back..
Back...?
Something to carry at our back...
It's not like tortoise-shell...
Kim... Kim...
Lord Kim Eun Bo?
That's right!
Why didn't I think about that!
We don't have much time.
Of course!
Let's send a messenger to him immediately.
Right.
That's right.
Who is it?
Agassi.
I can't figure out because I'm ignorant.
Dol Soe, that guy, wearing the official's uniform..
Is it that wrong?
I have never thought of that ever since.
Why would people have high and low classes...?
I don't really know.
Just like this everyone is the same under the sky being shined on by the moon.
I don't know either.
People, who should've lived, became wandering ghosts.
Lord Choi, who should've been dead earlier and become a demon, is alive like that.
Everything must have a reason, right?
Maybe, (Jade Emperor) threw the wrongful world to us from the first place,
and tell us, both humans and ghosts, to change it as much as we can.
You've worked hard.
Ever since the day you came to Miryang, there was never a day that was peaceful.
I think I would be finally able to read some books.
With that mouth, did you say I'm deluding the world and deceiving the people?
Did you say I'm wearing a cunning mask?
Since it's the words of Lord Choi, who blocked people's mouth to kill them, and who squeezed the hungry people to fill your own storage,
I will remember that to my bones.
However, the sky (meaning "Heaven") isn't up there just for scenery,
so you'd better prepare yourself to get all the punishment from the Heaven!
You.....!!!
I am the law and the sky.
You would get that punishment.
Because I'm going to give you that punishment from the Heaven!
Stop it!
Young Master!
Punishment from the Heaven!
Stop!
My Lord!
We are conducting matters of the nations but you stop us?
Even if you're at the peak of the power now, Lord Kim,
are you saying you would volunteer to commit obstruction the justice?
How could you move the Governor for your personal reason,
and try to sacrifice an innocent person, Lord Choi?
Even if he's your son,
how could you take a side of the leader of rebels?
Are you also involved in this vicious rebel party?
Lord Provincial Governor.
Since Lord Kim Eung Boo also seems to be connected to this case,
why don't you prepare the interrogation for him too?
Receive this Royal Command!
"Provincial Governor, you should release the ex Miryang's Magistrate, Kim Eun Oh at once."
"Miryang's Magistrate position was given to him, as per the Royal Command saying that classes wouldn't be asked. "
"And regarding to his appointing a slave as a officer, hiring his own subordinate is one of Magistrate's given rights,
he wouldn't be charged for that either."
"Moreover, regarding to the accusation that he made the public sentiment anxious, the town people didn't agree with that,
and even there are endless praises that the town became peaceful and the life of town people is much improved since he was appointed, so he's not guilty for that charge either."
"The charge for gathering Eol Ja and Seo Ja and organizing his private party is also found not guilty as the evidence isn't sufficient."
"Since Lord Choi's evil deed with lies is clearly revealed now
and his true intention for all accusations is suspicious, Kim Eun Oh is acknowledged as not guilty. "
"Therefore, I'm ordering Kim Eun Oh's pardon and his reinstatement. "
Bang Wool!
Dol Chief!!
Bang Wool!
For this case, all major Court subjects supported as they felt guilty that they'd closed their eyes what happened to your maternal grandfather.
The investigation report you wrote in details about Lord Choi's evil deed played the decisive role here.
This is just the beginning.
I will dig out his rottening root and reveal it to the whole world.
Did you find your mother?
Mother's whereabouts... I will definitely find it.
I once regretted not to make you settle when you wandered around.
However, behind your mind which was rather missing your mother than hoping to work as an official,
I guess I hid myself there...
Father...
Even if we sit in the Court, there is something we can't see. That is the public sentiment.
Once the water flows, the waterway will be made as per the law of nature.
As you gathered the public sentiment and let it flow, don't you think you should see until the end how its waterway will be made?
How can I say that I know what the public sentiment is?
However, I won't let any innocent lives die in vain any longer, not even a single life.
Your face became very worn (after the days in the jail).
That's right.
To the Magistrate, he has his father, mother and Dol Soe...
And this office in Miryang...
And a house in Gimhae too...
In the Magistrate's household there are people who know him.
Right. That's right.
He...he had his own life.
Say it.
What is it that would make you throw yourself away?
Mother! Mother! Mother!
Mother!
Moo Yeong...?
Brother.
Help me.
Brother.
All this time, you've had a hard time because of me.
That's nothing much.
Then, we should go and finish things up.
Let's do it.
Lord Choi, that old man, I won't let this go.
Lord Magistrate is going in! Make a way for him!
Why is it so noisy outside?
The Magistrate brought the patrolmen here.
What? For what reason?
You should escape quickly.
I can't! Let go! I can't go like this.
My Lord, you should escape quickly!
Let go of me! You bastard, less than a bug!
I fed you and saved you so you came this far.
Don't you need to pay back?
Go out and block them!
Young master!
What's the matter?
I think he is going to arrest Lord Choi.
If the Magistrate comes here it would be such a headache.
First you would need to escape.
Hurry!
Subtitles brought to you by The Marang Team @Viki.com
You...
How could you dare to come in here!
Lord, I have something I MUST tell you.
So I came all the way here to find you.
That so-called jail time.. as I experienced it once, I can say it's bearable.
What?
Since I've stayed there for a few days,
Even in prison, there was a seat of honor.
I will escort you to that seat especially,
so why don't you make your mind relaxed?
Hey there!
Yes.
For instigating the murder of the nanny in the office.
and organizing a band of private soldiers which is banned by the law,
We are arresting you.
Moreover, for exploiting town people for high-interest loan and farm rent
with much higher rate than what the law indicated,
and for taking town people's properties by charging them for various false crimes,
and so on. Your crimes are too endless to read all of them!
Yes you, Lord Choi
in the name of our nation's law put you under arrest.
Drag him out!
Yes!
What? No! You can't, you bastards!
No! No! You can't!
You bastards! Let go of me!
You bastards! Open this!
Move everything to the office without leaving a single thing.
Yes!
That human has been settled at last.
Though he is not a demon that Moo Yeon summoned but he is no different than a demon.
As expected, Moo Yeon...
made another human as a slave of desire.
Not all of these so called forces are necessarily bad.
If it's used wrongly, it becomes like that.
Sometimes, the desire could also be a strength that moves the world.
If all humans had good judgement and discernment,
then, gods like us wouldn't have had any headache.

We finally meet.
You were the one who took that monster away, right?
What is your connection with that monster?
My mother... how did she get possessed by that monster?
Choi Ju Wal,
Tell me everything that you know.
Kim Eun Oh,
Arang went to meet that woman.
What?
You also know it, right?
That woman wants to possess Arang's body.
Once that woman picks anything, she never lets that one get away.
I may not know what Arang is thinking right now but,
make sure she doesn't give herself up for you.
Magistrate.
That woman... did you meet her again?
Why did you meet her again? And alone at that.
Perhaps... do believe what that woman said?
Arang.
Magistrate.
If I go to Heaven,
you won't be able to remember me.
And if I go to Hell, I won't be able to remember you.
What are you saying?
They say that's just how it goes.
So just like this, I would want us to remember each other.
Are you calling that an excuse?
If it's because of my mother, then stop.
No, for whatever it is, stop.
I don't even want to know what you are planning to do.
Therefore stop it. Stop everything.
Magistrate.
I... the moment I knew that your mother killed me, I realized that finding out the truth had no meaning.
So my truth isn't killing your mother...
But saving your mother to save you, that's what I realized.
Allow me to do something properly for you, Magistrate.
You... do you know how much of a coward you are making me right now?
Did you think I would want you to do that?

Magistrate.
I wanted to make you a meal with my own hands.
There isn't much time left before the full moon.
Have some.
Rest your worries, I will do as you wish.
I've thought about it again,
as expected it was a foolish idea.
Enjoy your meal.
Is it delicious?
Yeah, it's delicious.
Work hard. I'm going.
Thank you.
I'm really thankful that you guys thought to send a messenger to my Lord.
I specially ordered this.
What is this?
Because of the stench of the meat, I'm not eating this kind of thing.
That's right, Lee Bang would never place that in his mouth.
Don't say such nonsense. If you place it like this...
If you do it like this, it would be alright.
It's delicious. It's delicious.
In this place, let us throw away what has happened in the past.
Let's get along well like real brothers in the future.
You and us are a bit different...
Real brothers would be a bit...
Well, if you're at the level of Magistrate, then maybe...
Magistrate?
No, no. Now here.

What are you doing over there?
Why did she have to come now?
Isn't it right,
even if I look into a mirror and have a make up everyday, what would be a use to do so?
When I can't catch up to those who were born that way.
What are you talking about?
Bang Ul Ri is a whole lot prettier.
Aigo... put some saliva on your lips. (Korean expression meaning "you're lying")
But what bring you here at this hour?
By... by any chance, another seance...?
I can't do that.
Kill me instead.
Can you...
please give this to the Magistrate.
What is this?
A letter?
For all this time, you were bothered a lot by me, right?
Asking you "Do this" and "Do that".
Bang Ul Ri is such a good person.
I'm even asking you a favor again for the last time.
Live well, Bang Ul Ri.
Last time?
What is it?
Magistrate!
Shaman,
What's the matter?
What is this?
She said it was for the last time...
She just... please read it.
Magistrate,
Someone once said
I dreamed about being a butterfly
I didn't know if I was the butterfly or the butterfly was me.
All this while after I met you
I also felt the same.
For a while, was I a human who became a ghost,
or a ghost that became human, to the point that I forgot that.
Time flowed like a dream.
With a happy heart I felt happiness.
With a sad heart I felt sadness.
The days I spent as a human,
they were really lovely.
Thank you for treating me preciously.
Thank you for making me live with precious mind.
Just like the place where the moon sets becomes faded by cold wind,
the place where I've stayed (in your mind)....
will disappear helplessly.
But... I won't ask you to forget me.
Please remember
The name Arang.
Magistrate,
I love you.
I'm here.
Are you really... going to go?
I will go.
If you won't lead the way then I will go by myself.
Lady... you are really cruel.
How...
You really don't care about my mind at all...
Even though you know how I feel...
How could you do this to me?
It's not like that.
If you are not comfortable with this, Young Master,
I will go there by myself.
I told you not to do this.
Don't come near!
Young Master...
Lee Seo Rim....?
She's here.

Arang and the Magistrate [ Preview ]
What are you thinking about?
That I'm thankful to you.
I lived not looking and listening to other people,
But I changed after I met you.
I haven't really done anything for you.
You have done so many things for me.
I thought leaving something with you would only bring pain.
So I pushed your heart away and lived ignoring it.
I can't make your body warm.
Nor can I stay by your side for a long long time.
When I go to heaven, even though I would lose all memories of you
But still...
I loved you.
