Timing and Subtitles brought to you by Oh Man Won Team @ Viki
I've never seen a poem in this format before.
I don't think it'll be difficult.
Mother, if you put two trees together, it'll become a forest.
Two trees.
It means there is one more type of a tree.
So do we just have to mix paper mulberry tree and wisteria tree together?
We need to find the ratio now.
I think this will do. This is very fine.
Lady Shin will never submit her Goryeo paper.
What I am saying that Lady Shin must not come out no matter what.
- Fire! - Oh my!
Ahh!!!
Saimdang, Light's Diary
Laid...
Lade? Lade...
- Rade, Rade.- Ah, Rade! Even I know that!(RADE = fabricated antique art investigation team)
But just who is this?
All of the controversies questioning art pieces' genuineness in well known museums recently
are the problems raised by RADE.
- On this very blog. - Oh.
So while Ji Yoon is doing her thing,
we'll submit the real Geumgangsan painting to RADE?
- Then we'll be insured. - Oh.
Let's see.
This looks like an ordinary blog to me.
No, starting with modern arts to (using informal speech)
the antique arts, the depth of his knowledge is substantial. (using informal speech)
Of course, this issn't limited to Eastern or Western art.(informal speech)
But there's no information on email or any other contact
about the person of RADE.
You are subtly dropping honorifics in your speech.
Aigo, I-I am sorry. (Going back to formal speech form)
It's okay.
Hey, send a note. A note might do.
The problem is that it won't allow me to attach a file.
Hey! Drop a bait.
"We have information about the genuine article of Geumgangsan painting."
- Dear, RADE. - Uh hum.
Eun Soo!
Welcome!
- I am sorry. - Who...?
I... am a part timer.
My! You are so pretty. How come a part timer is so pretty?
You are all dressed up.
I am sorry. I'll change quickly.[Seollungtang - beef soup]
- Take your time. - Yeah.
I brought this because I thought it was great after I used it.
You know if you are healthy your skin looks good, too.
I guess your situation hadn't got better like you've said it will soon.
That's why I didn't want to do this because I might be misunderstood, but
this is so great.
Give my your hand.
See?
Just think about your face. You look 20 years older than me.
And just why ask about my son? It's not like she'd help or anything...
Welcome!
Additional order!
Could you bring me the menu?
Yeah, I'll bring it.
Mother!
Saimdang Cosmetics
Mother! I am sorry!
Cheer up!
Since the Dreamland painting, this is the first An Gyeon's art piece that's surfaced.
This will be the last chance for Gallery Sun.
If you decline this offer—
This offer... who else got it?
So far, just you.
You know I need some time to think about this, right?
I can't give you too much time.
Yes, Director.
Take down the Geumgangsan painting from the exhibit.
I think we are almost there.
I don't know what card you are holding.
Do you know who the scariest person in the world is?
The person who has nothing more to lose.
You won't regret it?
Never.
We must snatch away the genuine Geumgangsan painting.
Take it by force?
Don't you think we can argue the fake as the genuine article if the genuine piece doesn't exist?
9 o'clock tomorrow morning, to DH bank,
an armored truck will come, I hear.
This doesn't seem to be the right road.
Who the heck are they?
Min! It's Professor Min!
Oh!
What the heck are you doing, bastards?
Let go!
Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry.
No! No!
Let go! What the heck are you doing?! You guys are worse than dogs!
Let go!
No!
What the heck is going on?
Stop you bastard! Stop!
Get them! Get them!
Get them! Hurry!
Hurry!
No. No.
You go make the police report. I'll call the Director of Sun Gallery. Hurry!
Be careful!
So I am saying Min Jeong Hak bastard...
Geumgangsan! Geumgangsan painting, that's very important,
- he stole that during the delivery process! - Ah yeah, yeah.
He stole a national treasure level of an article and he almost killed us!
Yeah, yeah. Please calm down.
- I'll recap this again. - Yeah, yeah.
- About 10 o'clock this morning on road #243 in Yangpyeong.- Right.
- During the delivery process to Gallery Sun, a national treasure item! - Uh huh!
A national treasure, Mt. Geumgang Painting, Hangook University's professor...
A professor forcibly stole it! That's what you are saying, right?
There are no other witnesses, right? Okay, I get it.
Hey, Detector Lee, did you check the CCTV?
Yes, if there is a CCTV, I'm sure all this criminal activity was recorded.
This is a serious crime!- Ah, yes, yes.
What happened? There is no CCTV on Yangpyung Road #243.
There is no CCTV?
Right. Because they are doing a construction there, there isn't one.
Min Jeong Hak, this person, must have looked into CCTV blind spots, I'm sure!
He did all this all by himself?
And a professor at that?
Gallery Sun... You know near the 2nd Gallery site,
among the pictures I saw in the director's laptop, there was something suspicious.
Did you find something?
I found it! The dual bookkeeping record.
What? A dual bookkeeping record?Jeong Min Seok - Seo Ji Yoon's husband
I've acquired the dual bookkeeping records that show how the Group laundered a slush fund through the Gallery.
If I submit this to the prosecution, they will start the search and seizure.
The evidence of manipulating the Altec stocks, causing our company to fold, could come out.
Would it be alright for you to be revealed to the prosecution?
You are on the run, too, Hyung.
Instead of being a fugitive of law,
I will be investigated properly. Instead—
How could you allow something like this to happen!
What happens to me who believed you, Ms. Seo Ji Yoon?
How could you allow the Mt. Geumgang painting to be stolen!
This is clearly an act of larceny!
My colleagues are at the police station reporting the crime.
They will find the evidence soon.
Does Professor Min look like someone who would carelessly cause an accident.
Director, you can't stay still and do nothing.
You know what kind of person that is. We never know what he will do after stealing the Mt. Geumgang Painting!
Stop being noisy.
Director!
It will be troublesome if people find out about this. Stop making the problem bigger.
Don't take any initiative until I contact you again.
He will contact us for sure.
This is the genuine article.
The majestic composition of mountains and rivers, and how skillfully he handled the space,
contrasting the mountain ridges, many lines unfolds.
It's alive with action.
This is An Gyeon's.
Discovery of Mt. Geumgang painting is this century's Korean Arts Society's
splendid victory and the discovery of the century.
That painting. Without a single doubt in your heart, do you have confidence that it's that of An Gyeon?
I'm not sure.
It can't be.
What is this accompanying poem about?
So then...
that painting that I had appraised is
indeed not a genuine article?
My uneasiness about not being 100% confident that the calligraphy is An Gyeon's handwriting
was not wrong.
Oh... what to do, really...
- Oh, Sunbae!- Oh, Ji Yoon!
How did it go?
Sit, sit, Ji Yoon.
What did Sun Gallery director say?
She told me to stay quiet. That it will be troublesome if it leaks out.
This is no matter to keep quiet about!
Where did this thief bastard take the painting to?
Ah, really! That snake-like person! I should have chased after Professor Min and took it back from him!
It's Professor Min.
Oh my...
Take the call, hurry.
Since something fun is coming soon, just wait.
Hyung!
You came.
Are you okay?
This bastard! Do you want to die?
Chairman, please save me.
So, what are are you saying?
CEO Jeong Min Seok of J Investment, who invested in Altec and then got bankrupted
is your college senior, and you let that rat in the gallery.Kim Seon Woo (Sunjin Group's security team leader)
and even let him steal information from Sun director's laptop.
And now you are even investigating behind my back, and you are asking me to save you?
Chairman, I've committed a sin deserving death, Sir!
Hey, security team leader.
If you want to live,
bring that rat
right here.
Got it?
If you don't, you'll die as well.
Thank you, I won't forget your help.
What will you do now?
A prosecutor that I know is on the way here.
The slush fund information was written quite in detail.
Altec stock manipulation information is all in there.
Did you tell the prosecutor what's written in that account book?
No, not yet. Why?
Nothing, it's just that I'm concerned.
This is David's fight against Goliath. (Referring to Biblical David and Goliath)
In the end, David won Goliath. Don't worry.
Let's go eat somewhere first, Hyung. Your face got skinnier.
Okay.
I couldn't eat anything today.
Please leave your mobile phones and other belongings here.
Here.
Put your hands up, please.
Geez... really...
So you are Seo Ji Yoon, aren't you?
Is she?
Where is Mt. Geumgang painting? Please give it back.
Give it back to us!
You guys will pay for this! Really!
- Let go! - Are you talking about this?
Ah, did I fall asleep?
Hey, where are you going? You said we were going to eat.
Hey, Kim Seon Woo.
Hyung, return the dual accounting record to Sunjin. subtitles ripped and synced by riri13
Hey, w-what did you say?
Sunjin found out. I'm telling you, you've been found out.
There's nothing you can do.
Hey, stop the car right now.
- I'm sorry, Hyung.- Stop the car right now, man!
You're not going to stop? Stop right now!
- Stop it, Hyung!- Give it back, please!
Let go, bastards!
It's mine! Give it back, please!
No!
- What are you doing, Professor MIn!- What are you doing!
Stay still!
- What the heck are you doing!- No!
- Aren't you going to stop the car?- Let go, Hyung! Let go!
- Stop the car!- Let go!
Let go!
I've worked so hard to restore it!
This is a half burned painting anyway.
It should have never surfaced to begin with.
- No!- No, you can't! You can't!
You said the scariest person in the world is someone who has nowhere else to retreat to, right?
No! No!
I'm like that, too, you know?
No!
- Stop the car this instant!- Let go, Hyung!
Stop the car, hurry!
Let it go!
Ack! Professor Min! You will be punished by heaven!
We finished up the last leg of the preliminary competition through woodblock printing experiments.
After deliberation, the two places to participate in the final was decided.
Representative of Jangwon Paper Store, come forward.
The other one, Yangyoo branch's representative, please come forward.
Yangyoo branch?
Yangyoo branch's representative, please come forward.
Just wait a bit.
It is I.
Wait, how did that b*itch...?
I'm certain that we had burnt all her paper.
How could this be?
I am the representative of Yangyoo branch.
Saimdang?
How? How could she be here?
Let it begin.
Oh! It's Saimdang, the genius painter who drew the painting of grapes.
Isn't that Lady Shin?
Yangyoo branch's representative is that lady?
Aigo, this person! Jangwon Paper Company is no joke, either.
She is known for the Plants and Insects painting and is the wife of Deputy Minister of General Affairs.
She is Hwi Eum Dang!
- The two best female painters of Joseon- Those two ladies are supposed to be painters.
are here at the Goryeo paper competition!
Today's competition is getting more and more interesting.
Oh, that's right.
Take a look at this.
I'm not so sure. It's going to take forever.
Would you be quiet, please?
Shhh!
What do you think?
The quality of both papers is so high to the point of not being able to tell which one is better.
With both papers, the ink doesn't smear excessively, but is just right.
Moreover, even when the paper is soaked with ink, it did not thin out or get thicker.
The thickness is appropriate,
so they are papers that writers and painters would covet.
It is hard to come up with a swift decision.
What should we do?
Your Majesty, how about if you let paintings be drawn on them?
Paintings?
The reason the problem with Goryeo paper surfaced was
because the colors of painting that the Emperor drew became faint.
Therefore, let each one draw a painting on each of her papers,
and observe how the colors show up and how they are absorbed.
That's a good idea.
Let the Royal Painters come.
How about if you let these ladies draw?
Paintings?
I heard those ladies are painters.
Let it be.
What a prudent thought.
Those who made the papers themselves
are the ones who knows their paper's strengths the best and will be able to express it.
Paper Shop's representatives, come forward.
Wait! Something is strange.
I will win no matter what.
Something is wrong with the coloring material.
As if it's water and oil, rather than mixing together, it's floating on the surface.
Things won't go your way.
I've mixed in vinegar to the coloring material.
What a beautiful painting.
The colors are coming alive.
Because a superior quality Goryeo paper doesn't contain foreign material,
I heard its absorbancy of color is fast and excellent.
It looks as if fish have found the water.
But why hasn't Yangyoo branch's representative held the brush yet?
Why isn't Lady Shin not painting?
I wonder why...
Calm down. I need to be calm.
There must be a way.
Asian Cornelian Cherry?
Asian Cornelian Cherry...
Ah, that's right. This will do!
What are you trying to do now?
There! There! What's going on?
What is she doing with Asian Cornelian Cherry?
That...
Take a look at that.
The paintings are completed.
It was a very interesting time, indeed.
Glad to hear that.
Now, it's time for you to judge.
It's a colorful painting balancing five colors well.
In this paper, five colors get absorbed very well
and you can express colors freely.
It shows the very high quality of the paper.
She is Hwi Eum Dang, indeed!
Mook Mae Painting - Saimdang's painting of Apricot Blossoms
Red and black; You've only used two colors.
It seems rather simple.
It's a lively painting where I feel like I can really touch the apricot tree's rough bark.
It's as if it doesn't care about the surrounding wind and frost.
This apricot blossom seems to proudly and gracefully stand alone.
Yes!
Your aesthetic eye is awakened.
Now, make the judgement on the paper.
But... I can see that some of the colors are not being absorbed completely.
It doesn't seem like the problem lies solely on the paper.
What? What is he saying?
Did someone messed things up?
Please make a decision on which paper is superior.
I will...
I won this time.
choose that paper.
Wow!
Why is that?
It's the same concept as a lady who is confident in her own skin not needing thick makeup.
I feel like I'm meeting the Goryeo paper that I touched a very long time ago.
Oh, wow! So he didn't choose her because she is beautiful.
So, was it an expression of confidence
that that's how strong and high quality your paper is?
Please forgive me for saying this, but
I was only trying to express apricot blossom's dignity and elegance.
So I abandoned bright colors,
and only with red berries,
I drew apricot blossoms using red and black color.
Moo Soo Dong Soo Moo Song Choo Wee(Numerous frozen hands touched together to bring Spring)
What does this mean?
Numerous hands touched together to bring Spring.
In our Yangyoo branch, many migrant workers belong there.
Making paper is such a hard labor,
that without their help, it wouldn't have been impossible. That's what it means.
Migrant workers, you say.
What is your name?
I am called Saimdang.
Saimdang. Saimdang, you say.
Congratulations on winning the Goryeo paper competition.
It's Madam, Madam, Madam! She is coming out!
Madam,
how did the competition go?
Yes?
Huh?
Did we lose?
If we lost, then that damn Jangwon Paper Store won?
Aish! Don't even say things like that!
That mouth of his!
- We won!- What?
Is that for real?
When we worked so hard together, why would we lose?
Our Yangyoo branch won
the Goryeo paper competition!
Yay! We won! We won!
Migrants singing and dancing~
In resolving the Goryeo paper problem, Prince Eui Seong contributed a lot.
I can now stretch my two legs and sleep in peace!
You've worked hard.
Your Majesty, although we have resolved the Goryeo paper problem with Ming,
the Goryeo paper problem within this kingdom hasn't ended yet.
Your Majesty said when you discharged Deputy Minister of General Affairs, Min Chi Hyeong, before was
only that his punishment was postponed, not pardoned.
Yes, I did say that.
Come to think of it, why isn't Min Chi Hyeong here?
Punishment for Deputy Minister Min Chi Hyeong's crimes must be ruled strictly.
Did you report all his crimes last time?
That's just the tip of the iceberg of all the crimes that he has committed.
Last night, in Yangyoo branch, which won the Goryeo competition,
there was a fire.
There was a fire?
Last night, Yangyoo branch has
turned into ashes.
Then, how were they able to submit Goryeo paper?
Bring him in.
I've committed a sin deserving death, Your Majesty!
The day before the competition
Hurry!
We have to go!
Let's hurry and go!
Let's hurry.
We saw a short and weird looking man
going into Lord Min Chi Hyeong's house.
Is that true?
Yes.
Goryeo paper is ready!
Yes!
Yay!
What a shame. It would be such a waste.
But what can I do?
I have to do what I have to do.
Come on.
- It's not working well? - No, it's not.
That flint isn't good.
- Wait, wait. Oh, it's working!- It's about to work.
Oh! Oh!
- Oh, it worked!- Woo hoo!
- It's firing up well.- It's Goryeo paper, after all!
Of course it works well since it's Goryeo paper.
- Huh?- Do you want to eat some?
- What are you doing?- Waaaa!
It's not what you think. A misunderstanding.
It's a misunderstanding.
It's true.
He said he will cut off my arms and legs and then kill me.
So I had no choice but to do it.
Do you think I felt good about it?
Because I felt attached to you,
I really felt tormented!
Yeah, right!
As if!
Ahew!
They really are truly scary people, I tell you.
If I don't set it on fire, they will release the thugs
and they will kill you all. That's what he said!
Even now, they are probably watching this somewhere.
What are you trying to pull?
How dare you!
Setting it on fire would be a way for you to live!
You are kidding me!
Trust me.
Unless if we do this, there is no way to catch Min Chi Hyeong.
Min Chi Hyeong must see it with his own eyes that the paper workshop is on fire.
That's the way to stay safe before the competition.
Let's hide the paper in a safe place and then set the fire.
Do you really think this is the only way?
How can we set fire on the migrants base?
Oh, fire! Fire! There's fire!
Oh!
Fire!
There's fire!
Oh, no!
Fire!
There's fire!
What to do!
Oh no! Fire!
Let's go!
Aigo! We are done for!
No, it can't be!
Please kill me!
I told him to stop fighting on personal matters and concentrate on producing Goryeo papers.
This is an unforgivable act of treason for disdaining me!
This is not the end of it, Your Majesty.
Prince Eui Seong, report everything about Min Chi Hyeong's crimes without leaving anything out.
The one who will testify against his crimes,
there is another witness.
Who is this?
Y-Your Majesty!
Who are you?
Yoon Pil - Prime Minister's only son
Father...
Your Majesty.
He is my son.
What do you mean he is your son, Prime Minister?
Why is Prime Minister's son the witness?
My son has always had
deep illness in his body and mind
that he is not able to act as a human being.
At that time, Min Chi Hyeong that guy said
he will treat his illness and send him to a resort.(20 years ago - Woonpyeong Temple)
He's been maintaining friendship with my son since then.
In that case, he would know Min Chi Hyeong's disgraceful acts better than anyone else.
Hurry and report.
Deputy Minister Min said
if I tell my father in a favorable manner,
What should we do?
with my father's support, he will climb up the political ladder
and I can do whatever I want to do.
Do you want to make it as if it never happened?
Is there a way?
I have a strategy and you have the family connection.
And Deputy Min gave bribery to my father—
Y-Your Majesty! For having such a lowly son,
please ask to pay for my sin.
Most critically, Deputy Min even killed a person!
He committed a murder?
Yes! The people that he had killed
are countless!
There are so many.
Hurry and keep talking!
Yes, about 20 years ago...
Oh, alright, I will talk well of you to my father, His Excellency the Prime Minister, when I go back.
Please let me escape this scene.
Remember this moment very well. This moment will change your life.
If you let any of these people live, we will be come murderers.
If you kill them all, Prime Minister
will not forget your good work.
Slay them.
When I went to visit Woonpyeong temple in Gangreung,
well...
Your Majesty, please punish me.
My son is an idiot who does not know anything.
Your Majesty, please punish me.
Your Majesty, to Min Chi Hyeong who has violated this country,
please give severe punishment.
That's right, Your Majesty! Please punish Min Chi Hyeong severely!
Please punish him severely!
Criminal Min Chi Hyeong take your punishment for frauding the people and scheming against the government!
Soon they'll be rushing in to arrest me.
There is a lot that Prince Eui Seong has told about my crime.
All our wealth will probably be confiscated.
Even if I hang on to my life, I'll be in exile.
These are the titles of land and shops I bought in various places throughout the country in secret.
Heed my words.
Even if you have to use all of this wealth,
you must get me out. Understand?
Yes, Sir.
Sir! We have a big problem!
What do I do now?
Step aside!
Exile criminal Min Chi Hyeong to Mt. Gap in Hamgyeong province,
and keep him within the fence!
Aigoo. He should be killed!
(We Ri Ahn Chi - Making a fence with the thorn bushes and locking the criminal within that area so that he can't run away)
So vile.
Is he even a human!
Now that I think about it,
I haven't said thank you to you even once.
Without your help,
I don't think I'd have endured this difficult process.
The migrants' lives would've been pitiful as well.
I wanted to tell you that I thank you.
I didn't do it to hear your thanks.
I am really grateful... for all these times.

Weren't you scared? Being on top of a cliff for 2 days straight?
What is this?
That's so cool!
I got a lot of wisteria trees that were older than thirty years old.
And the best mulberry trees too! After inspecting them I sent them off this morning!
Great! Everyone worked very hard!
You also need to return, madam.
Let's go down now.

Saimdang, Light's Diary
I almost died, but I met some scholar who saved me. That's how I got to come all the way here.
Look here. In Port Dangjin,
I heard that if you sell a painting, it's about the cost of a tile-roofed house?
Until when do we have to continue to live in two households?
Slowly I'm getting bigger and bigger.
For certain, I will restore your position.
We need to make sure to take meticulous revenge on those scoundrels.
I'm planning on hiring a private tutor.
I heard that Madam Shin Saimdang of Yang Ryu Paper Stores is a genius painter.

Only Huang Yu was able to...
Good!

You are saying I'm the one who's the culprit!
