Do you have to become the princess?
Is it something you'd rather die for than give up?
Can't you not be the princess...
and can't you just be my girl?
I can't give you an answer.
For my sake, I know what you've given up.
For my sake,
I know who you've made enemy with.
How can I give you an answer?
If I give you an answer,
I know it'll be a lot harder than now.
And that Park Hae Young,
I have no idea how I can protect him.
How am I supposed to answer you?
I have no answer for you.
Not even if I die.
I taught the princess well.
That's right.
This is a terrible question,
but you answered it beautifully.
Don't ever forget this moment.
Episode 11
I came to verify something.
Empress Myungsung's sachet,
you have it, right?
I heard it's just been appraised.
And the result is?
That sachet...
is it real?
Whether it's real or not,
it has nothing to do with you.
If it's an imperial item,
sooner or later, it will come into my hands.
Is it real?
Do you wish that it's real?
I wish it is real.
I wish the historical value of the sachet will be authenticated,
and presented again to everyone.
But, because of some people who want to make use of history,
I sometimes wish it's not the real thing.
You?
What is it you wish for?
So it must be real.
The sachet...
is real.
What exactly do you wish for?
What is it you're thinking of doing?
Bad things.
Just because she's in possession of the sachet,
that's not enough to make Lee Dan the princess.
Jung Woo, you arrived at that thought, too?
I think I need a deleterious idea.
I'm leaving.
Court Maid Shin! Court Maid Shin!
- Are the newspapers here? Newspapers! - Here, princess.
Wait for me, princess!
[President Kim, surprise palace visit]
[President Kim's Surprise Visit to Princess]
[President and diplomat standoff]
Power struggle between palace and Cheongwadae* (*Korea's Blue House)
Noona! Noona!
Noona, noona, noona.
Noona!
Noona! Noona, noona.
Noona!
Huh?
It's you, Geon.
I've been looking for you.
I heard you didn't eat much last night.
You're the one who makes beautiful egg rolls. You're Geon, right?
Yes.
Oh! What a short answer to a long question.
Noona, are you not feeling well?
Ah, no. Don't worry.
No, that's not true.
That's how all illnesses start. You've been like that since dawn.
Since it's all in the news, there's nothing you can do.
Why don't you eat some of this?
Alright.
From now on, I'll study like preparing for an entrance exam.
So that I can learn to be honest yet not outspoken,
giving perfect answers to those sly questions.
Wow! Noona,
what you just said, that's real cool.
It is, isn't it?
But... those words aren't mine.
The palace has to remain politically impartial.
Shut up.
How dare you discredit me in front of those reporters,
immature fella.
How dare you stab me in the back!
Palace to remain politically impartial?
Wake up.
You entered the palace in order stop the imperial restoration.
Useless... ridiculous, your sudden sense of justice.
Where did that come from?
I think the palace and the government,
can coexist perfectly with the princess like a painting.
I share that same idea, too.
But our definition of "perfectly" seems to differ.
You're the one who destroyed it all.
Leave the palace now.
Otherwise,
those who dare challenge this nation's highest ruler,
the palace which dares to raise the flag of dissension,
I will remove them... bit by bit.
Sit.
Your sachet turned out to be real.
So now you've ascertained I'm on higher ground than you?
What is it exactly that you want?
If I tell you, will I get it?
Then,
it's what you want, Executive Director.
That's all I want.
You're inept but rather insightful.
Alright.
Let's proceed with my plans then.
From today onwards,
you're the princess.
So once the nation has voted,
- I will really become the princess? - Did you think that is possible?
I, who will dethrone the real princess,
did you think I will serve the fake princess?
To stop the nation's vote,
you act the princess' role for some days, that's all.
Upon my order,
you have to guarantee your immediate departure from Korea.
That's all the role you'll play.
Then, I should take a good look at Seol's room now.
[President and diplomat standoff Uprising or palace power check?]
Unni!
Unni, when did you come?
Did you see my message?
I called you, too.
Come and sit. Shall I get you a drink?
Every time I come, I see how huge your room is.
And mom, how's she doing?
What's this?
Ah! Letters that they write to me.
Mostly letters from orphans?
"Hello, princess. "
"Actually, I'm also an orphan like you. "
"It seems I'm going to have a family, too. "
"Someone proposed to me a simple but beautiful proposal. "
Simple but beautiful proposal?
That's how poor people are; packaging poverty in romance.
Such letters are more meaningful to me.
Unni, you and I know it better, don't we?
What do I know?
To me, that's just an orphan trying to hide her embarrassment.
But to you it's a weapon, isn't it?
A weapon to be used opportunely to extract pity.
Unni!
I'm leaving.
I have an important appointment.
Next time I come, I hope I won't see you in this room.
Please return the sachet to me.
I thought you might first ask me if it's real or not.
It's as if you already heard the result from someone else.
By any chance, did Executive Director Oh Yun Ju tell you the result?
You asked me that if without the sachet,
would Seol be chased away?
So what?
Those words disturb me.
In straightforward terms,
I don't want you to use the sachet to put Seol in a spot.
I saw you already.
I'm a little busy now.
I have something to say.
I said I have something to say.
That's what I was afraid of,
that you'll have something to say.
But why aren't you keeping our time agreement?
Didn't we agree I'll use this place from 9 to 10 o'clock?
Was that an agreement?
It was your unilateral request, wasn't it?
Then, let me state one thing.
Did I hound you or were you looking around for me?
Who's Tom and who's Jerry?
We have to play our own characters, right?
Is that so?
Then, I'm Tom and I found you.
Why were you looking for me?
I told you I have something to say, right?
No! I don't want to, I'm not listening.
I'm not listening.
I'm not listening. I'm not listening!
I'm not...
You know what I want to say?
You're telling me to forget about last night, right?
Tell me tomorrow.
I can't.
Today, you have to be within 1 meter of me.
If you rebel,
that distance will be shrunk to 50 cm, understand?
How can you do that?
Let's have lunch.
See you at the dining hall.
What's up with him today?
Can't it be just for one day?
Mr. P, you jerk.
Can't you not be the princess,
and just be my woman instead, can you?
To store it up word by word, it takes time.
At least, a day or so.
Before you take it all back again...
Oh, Professor!
Hey, I'm not the professor, I'm Sun Ah.
Oh, you're asking if I'm in contact with Sun Ah?
- No, I'm not. - What are you saying?
I'm working part-time. Come over quick.
Right now?
Yes, I'll be there.
Alright.
I'm sorry, I have to see the Professor now.
I told you if you rebelled, the distance is shrunk to 50 cm, correct?
Oh, Professor, you haven't hung up yet?
It's urgent?
Yes, I'm on my way.
Customer, so you mean even as the princess,
you're still having a crush?
Well, maybe so.
You can say he's far
or you can say he's near.
What? Is he near or is he far?
Within about a meter, I think.
You're going around in circles without telling me who it is?
Going in circles...
I'm faint from going in circles, Sun Ah.
Even though it's a crush no one knows about,
aren't you always yelling that phrase "You should love till you die"?
You know,
you remember when I broke my leg running out for dinner in senior high?
Yes.
You were confined in the hospital for treatment, right?
Just like back then, but the part that hurts has changed.
What hurts now is not my leg but here...
It hurts,
it's numb,
and it's out of my control.
But what's worse is I bind it up with bandages,
but it won't set.
How can it behave as it wishes? Without the owner's approval?
This love is for real!
Go, confess.
Putting it out in the open for all to see, isn't that your strength?
I'm telling you,
my only strength is being blindly courageous.
But that doesn't work with Mr. P.
Don't tell me, your Mr. P...
isn't that your Mr. P?
Oh! Oh!
How did he know I was here?
Wait.
Hey!
Close it, close it.
If he finds me, I'm dead.
Close it quick.
Hurry!
Hello.
Hello. I see you're here alone.
Where's Seol?
Ah!
The princess is currently reading in the spacious library.
The princess has always been very elegant and steady,
very wise and brave.
I'm here to check out luggage. Well...
- I see. - Yes.
Which one should I choose?
But I keep noticing and I think I like that luggage.
What do you think?
Ah, there are many other better ones.
- Take your time... - No, I'll take this one.
This luggage looks the best.
But you should take your time...
It looks very energetic,
I'll take it.
I'll pay for it in full.
It's very sturdy, right?
Since you've been keeping quiet, you should continue some more.
How can you show yourself now?
Go inside again.
You!
It's a folklore on birth.
*Kim Al Ji, Jumong, Kim Suro, don't you know? (*folklore characters)
They're all birthed from egg shells, you know.
So, you're birthed from a luggage?
I think I mentioned this for sure, we should not meet again today.
I'm not here to see you. I came to buy a luggage.
This is really embarrassing.
You said the student and his teacher are one body.
Since we're in this state now, let's be embarrassed together.
I want to be stuck like this,
- Stuck like this... - Hey, hey!
If you want to be stuck, then either go back in there again,
or follow me nicely now.
Hey!
Hey, where are you going?
Ah!
Wait!
Get me out before you go!
Hey!
Since I'm out already, it's alright for me to go back later, right?
The princess has no privacy nor freedom of movement, is that it?
Cry if you want.
Cry and say you miss your mom and your friends, alright?
Shout into a loudspeaker and say your promise to work at it was all for show.
Go back to being the ignorant Princess Lee Seol, alright?
Who says that's what I want?
Why must you be so extreme? And so exaggerated.
I'm anxious, that's why.
Why are you anxious?
I'm hoping you'd become a VIP quickly.
If I had known, I should have used the Spartan training on you.
How I regret it.
Wow, really, why act like some great teacher?
I won't be fooled.
What happens to you after I become a VIP?
I'll live my life without having to see you.
From today onwards, I will be fully independent.
See? See?
The teacher sets a goal, but your attitude is not right.
Listen up, this is an extra lesson now.
Ah~ I'm not listening.
Ah~
1. Never let anyone suddenly grab your hands.
You're the one doing the grabbing.
2. Never take a ride from just anyone.
3. Never let anyone piggyback you.
4. Never get into a drunken stupor with anyone.
5. Never...
accept anyone else's love confession.
Understand?
Have you got it all down?
How can I with my hands like this?
You need your hands to make notes?
You should use your heart for this.
Repeat it to me.
You must test me on this later on.
Who says there's a test?
This is on-the-job training.
Come on.
Why are we here?
Do you remember?
This is where we first met.
I do remember.
Princess Stella's reception was held here.
Why don't I get a reception here, too?
I think that's the princess' successor.
I should have my photo taken, too.
Wait.
Why?
This is the first and last time,
I'll make a reception for you.
The first time is correct,
but why is it the last time?
Ah! I'm not crazy, why would I do a reception for you a second time?
You're so obviously keen for it.
Wait for me.
Hello.
Princess Lee Seol would like a photo taken.
What?
Ah!
5,000 won.
You pay upfront.
Ah!
Ah, yes.
Indeed, you're the princess' successor, so particular about this matter.
Here.
It's because some people run off after the photo's taken.
Taking the shot now... 1, 2, 3.
Oh! Isn't that the princess?
A part-timer dressed up as the princess.
No, the one next to her taking the photo.
That's right.
Look, the princess!
- It's her. - Yes, it's the princess.
Unni, you're so pretty.
You're too pretty.
It's the princess.
I'm the princess, that's right.
Look over here!
Calm down, everyone.
Oh!
Wait! Wait, wait!
Stop, stop, stop!
You're just taking wild shots,
then upload it to the internet, right?
- No, no. - No.
Let's not do this.
Unni, the headpiece is really heavy, right?
Let me take over for a while.
- You rest your neck then come back. - Really?
One by one by one.
Please line up.
- Let's queue. - Yay!
Over here, over here!
1, 2, 3.
Come, get over here.
Teacher!
1, 2, 3.
Thank you!
Bye!
Pass. Next.
I queued up, too.
Don't be prejudiced against me.
Please take our photo.
5,000 won.
You're using a check again?
I'll have to give you change of 995,000 won?
Let's just get the shot done.
Please take the shot now.
Look at the camera. Now.
See, see.
A perfect combination with the background screen setting,
isn't it amazing?
What I got from this elegant work experience is,
a glorious camera-sense.
What's this?
But this one is really...
she's really...
That's why they say successors never meet up to their predecessors.
Not everyone makes it as a princess. Right?
It's not easy to be a princess, alright.
Taking photos with people...
reading everybody's diaries...
By this time, another big batch of messages must have arrived.
Now you know?
Your task now is not that 5,000 won part-time job,
but to be the real princess.
Like those people who lined up before you just now...
In the future no matter what comes up,
face up to each item and resolve them.
You can do it, right?
But,
why do you keep dwelling on such a heavy topic today?
My mood today's a little...
heavy.
Is something wrong?
Something?
Oh, well. There's something, of course.
The devoted dandelion, Mr. N,
he says he has to see you.
He said that at least 5 times already.
My professor?
Yes, when you were taking photos,
you didn't answer your calls so he called me instead.
He said something about finding an imperial artifact,
that he must see you face-to-face.
Anyhow, he sounded real serious.
Yes, he said he was going to call again.
Go on.
Alright.
Ah! This, here.
What on earth is this?
Like this.
Make a V with a 60 degree angle.
That makes the V-line more special.
Understand?
Really.
That's why, only those who've had practice are photogenic.
I'm keeping this photo.
Alright, since I'm in a good mood.
Thanks.
I'm off then.
Alright.
Unni?
Why did she look for you, professor?
She came with a sachet to be authenticated.
She really came with a sachet?
Yes.
The result of the authentication is,
that sachet is the real thing.
From the angle of finding an authentic imperial artifact,
it's a good thing but...
I think this matter will lead to suspicions about you.
That's to be expected...
but it doesn't mean I'm no longer my father's daughter, right?
Yes. That's why,
I'm thinking of going back to the orphanage again.
Do you have time?
Of course.
Let's go now.
The last time we were here,
Lee Dan, that's Eun Byul,
she said the sachet was from her mom.
So at that time,
was Lee Dan in touch with her real parents?
Ah, it seems you're mistaken.
They could be her real parents, but maybe not her real parents too.
What do you mean...?
The children here all have fantasized parents.
Fantasized parents?
Put simply, it means lies.
"Yesterday, my mom came. "
"Yesterday, my dad gave me a present. "
"My mom and dad are extremely rich. "
Stuff like that.
Eun Byul often mentions her mom.
Seol, you have a fantasized dad and ahjussi, too.
Me?
Yes.
When you finally spoke after a few months,
you asked for your ahjussi.
If you're with your ahjussi, your dad will come looking for you.
Your dad was a running champion.
Your ahjussi was a crying champion.
Ahjussi?
To you...
this must have been a long day.
But to me, it's but a brief moment.
- That ahjussi I'm looking for, who could that be? - Don't you remember anything?
Nothing at all.
Could it really be an imaginary ahjussi?
My mind's all messed up.
The more anxious you are, the more messy.
So keep calm and think clearly.
I feel so uneasy.
Who could it be?
Lee Seol.
Yun Ju.
Hae Young oppa has left the palace.
More accurately, he's been ordered out because of you.
But... what are you saying...?
To protect a fool like you,
he upset the President and was ordered out.
Don't you know what that means?
Not only did you take his inheritance and his family,
now you even took his position from him.
Don't stop me.
Even if everyone's on her side,
Jung Woo, you mustn't.
For all these things, I even gave you up...
and now it all belongs to her.
Let's meet in an hour.
Because of me...
Did you leave because of me?
Answer your phone.
Answer your phone, please.
No one is available to answer to your call. Please leave a message after the tone.
[Certificate of Donation] Donor: Lee Seol, Amount: 157,000 won
[This is a report to Princess. Your Highness, your first command has been duly fulfilled. ]
[Teacher of Etiquette and Manners, Park Hae Young. ]
[Park Hae Young]
[There's a second present. ]
Seol!
Mom!
Yes, it's me.
Mom.
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.
Deputy Director Park told me I can come see you now.
He told me to hug you a lot.
He said my daughter will hurt a lot.
Mom.
It's alright. Seol. Seol?
[Your Highness, the Princess]
[14 missed calls]
[Your Highness, the Princess]
The coffee's good here, right?
I didn't see you have much to do in the palace,
spend more time taking care of that kid.
As you know, the princess doesn't watch her ways and does as she likes,
the really emotional type.
And the scale of the trouble she causes is not negligible, as well.
She needs someone who can help her wrap things up.
Are you passing Seol over to me?
Yes.
Am I not supposed to do that?
[Park Hae Young From: Incheon To: New York]
[Your Highness, the Princess]
Park Tae Jun is indeed in New York.
That's his last address.
Thanks, sunbae.
You know... that Park Tae Jun...
I really wasn't intent on digging out how you're related to him...
He's my father.
But... his name...
is in the prohibited entry blacklist.
That's why I'm going to see him.
What is this?
My leave application.
Are you protesting against your job suspension?
That's not the case.
Due to my own reasons,
I intend to rest for a while.
Ah, really.
You must be busy.
Because of me, I think you're going to be busy, too.
You have news for me?
I have an article to be reported.
No one is available to answer your call. Please leave...
Please call me.
If you don't, at least answer my call.
So you're here.
This is your new teacher.
Nice to meet you, princess.
I'm Foreign Ministry Officer Kim Seung Hyun.
Your Highness.
I'm sorry, I have to go out for a while.
This is Lee Seol.
Please find the current location of Deputy Director Park Hae Young.
Right away.
What brought you here?
Jerk.
How could you without a word...
Without saying goodbye...
Why must you go?
Why must you go so far away?
You'll be back real soon, right?
I don't know yet.
Can you finally at least say something I can understand?
You call yourself a teacher?
If you were one,
shouldn't you at least leave word about where you're headed?
Now, it feels like you're really a princess.
You even brought your bodyguards with you.
Bodyguards?
Yes, I've found him.
Yes, I understand.
It's the Executive Director.
Yes, it's me.
You're leaving without a word?
Oppa,
you owe me another favor.
What?
I've caught hold of you,
so that you can protect the princess.
What do you mean?
Something serious has ensued concerning the princess.
You two must hurry back right away.
I'm sorry to contact you at such short notice.
There's something I must show you right now.
Please open it, Chairman.
Isn't this the sachet left by Empress Myungsung?
Yes, the Imperial Foundation has been looking for this.
This is Empress Myungsung's sachet.
Our country's experts have authenticated it to be the real thing.
Oh, is that right?
I see.
Your Highness, you have any impression of this?
Well, it's been so long ago...
This is it, this is the real thing.
How did you find this sachet?
Who had it?
For the princess...
to not have the sachet, I was afraid it will be unfavorable.
All this while, in order to locate this sachet,
the foundation has put in its best effort.
But beyond our imagination,
this sachet turned up in the hands of someone unexpected.
I was very taken aback myself.
I invited that possessor to join us.
Please come in.
Isn't this the princess' sister?
Yes, Chairman.
This sachet is the only item my parents left to me as an orphan.
Hence, I've always cherished it; making sure I never lose it.
That's impossible. That's definitely not possible.
This sachet was left by the princess' father,
Crown Prince Lee Han.
No way it's given to you by your parents.
I, too, didn't think it's a problem for the sister who grew up with me to become the princess.
So I wanted to acknowledge it quietly.
But... I have to show up now.
I was 5 years old when I was sent to the orphanage.
People have been chasing me and my dad around for our lives.
But one night,
my dad died.
I met Seol at the orphanage,
and told her everything that happened to me.
No, not possible.
Unni, why are you telling such lies?
Seol, I'm sorry.
But the truth has to come out sooner or later, right?
Unni!
I think without any objective proof,
Princess Lee Seol was admitted into the palace.
That is the source of the problem.
The process of locating the princess wasn't revealed to the public, too.
Why do we need to reveal the process?
I can be the proof.
I already verified the princess' memories,
and there wasn't any problem at all.
It's my view as Executive Director of the Imperial Foundation,
if there is any doubt,
the correct thing to do is to clearly sort it all out.
I'm not saying you did wrong.
You did what you ought to do.
Alright, let me ask you one thing.
Do you remember me at all?
Yes.
That day at the construction site,
you came on a helicopter.
You held onto my dad tightly.
He was very afraid.
No, I was the one at the construction site.
Then do you remember why you were at the construction site?
What?
Do you remember or not?
Dad and I have always been chased around by people.
Do you remember that?
What do you mean?
Someone threatened my dad to never appear in front of the Chairman.
My dad was always on the run in order to protect me.
And that someone, who was he?
Unni, how do you know all this?
If you want to know who that someone is,
I think Deputy Director Park Hae Young should be able to tell you.
I'm sorry to interrupt.
Right now, there's a live news report about the imperial family.
The possessor of Empress Myungsung's sachet lost by Emperor Sunjong in 1926,
has recently appeared to seek the truth.
Historians were engaged to carry out authentication in secret.
Empress Myungsung's sachet, possessor casts blame
after certifying Empress Myungsung's sachet as the real item.
The possessor of the sachet...
See, see, what did I say?
It's all just bubbles.
Now Cheongwadae and Daehan Group won't be able to explain themselves.
A commotion has risen.
There are internal discussions on how to proceed.
Empress Myungsung's sachet belonged to her,
and it's a symbolic item that's handed over the female lineage, generation to generation.
Don't worry. Wait for me here in this room.
I'll be right back.
Discussions are now on why the process to ascertain if the princess is real,
cannot be revealed to the public.
The public's goodwill towards the princess after the imperial inauguration ceremony,
will soon be discarded by the public.
For Princess Lee Seol who found her place in the palace,
this matter will...
[Mother]
Do you have something to tell me?
Don't you?
I've said my piece earlier.
I need to hear more.
What you mentioned, how did you find out?
You mean the matter about that man being your father?
How did you find out?
Because I experienced it.
Are you certain?
Since it's so long ago, there might be some mistakes.
Exactly which part do you mean?
The man I remember as your father,
might very well be a better man.
Even though the chances are slim.
What happened exactly?
How is it before I find out, it gets reported in the media?
What have you been doing?
How can you let things come to this state?
I will take measures to stop more revelations.
It's being reported nationwide,
what kind of measures can you take?
Any measures taken must have a certain degree of success.
The princess' sister possesses the sachet,
even knowing about Hae Young's dad,
isn't that incredible?
Something must have gone wrong somewhere.
You can't be doubting Princess Lee Seol, right?
I've never seen anyone like you.
Remember what it took us to locate the princess?
Hiding away a living person,
saying that she's dead already, who was it who lied to me?
Who lied to me for almost 20 years,
then telling me now that she's still alive?
So how can I doubt who she is?
Then... why...?
You still don't know?
How many people in this world know about Hae Young's dad?
Who do you think would do something like this?
Could it be...
Where is Hae Young?
Where is that fella?
Get him here right now.
So you're saying that you're the real princess?
I have not claimed to be the princess.
I'm only saying such things exist in my memory.
Alright.
Even if what you say is true,
then why did you hold it back for so long?
Because I object the imperial restoration.
Those days of running away with my father were dreadful times.
Sleeping in the streets,
begging others for food...
Would someone in my shoes,
go become a princess to those who did me harm?
The Chairman's looking for you.
Aren't you going to own up?
Please repeat...
what did you just say?
I'm asking if you arranged all this?
I'm asking why you did such a scary thing?
Are you suspicious of me now?
Other than you, who else can do something like this?
You attempted to ship the princess out for your inheritance's sake.
What else couldn't you have done?
A fella like you entering the palace, I was already suspicious.
It was my neglect, all my neglect.
Grandfather.
Maybe you're thinking of making use of imperial traditions,
tarnishing the princess before the national election.
But I won't let you succeed in that.
You're exactly like your dad.
Yes, you're right. It was me.
I said it was me.
So are you happy now?
Hae Young, Hae Young!
No use stopping him!
Useless fella.
Talk to me.
I'm hoping for a miracle.
Before the nation votes,
the miracle of Chairman Park Dong Jae's collapse.
Don't.
Don't, Yun Ju.
If you stop this now, if you give this up now...
I know.
But...
I won't.
You're afraid?
Worried? Which is it?
If you're the real princess, you should prove it.
I'm not asking you about that right now.
What is this about Park Hae Young?
Let me explain it to you.
You're exactly like your dad.
Romeo and Juliet.
The one who caused a father and his child to be nomads for life,
the tragedy of falling in love with the son of the man who caused her father's death...
That's just so tragic.
