[My Sassy Girl]
Your Majesty!
Please depose the Queen!
Your Majesty!
Please depose the Queen!
Your Majesty!
Please depose the Queen!
Your Majesty!
Your Majesty.
Do not worry, my Queen.
I will protect you.
Remove the army from the palace at once.
The baby the Queen is carrying is not the King's.
You are out of line.
Are you trying to start a rebellion?
The Queen has been secretly communicating with Prince Chuseong for a long time.
Shut that mouth of yours.
There is evidence.
We must hurry. We need to stop them.
What is the meaning of this?
This is not rebellion but loyalty, Your Majesty.
Bring out the criminal for high treason.
Yes, sir.
Get back!
I refuse to be dragged out by dirty rebels.
These were posted in the market.
"Maeng Mo Sam Mang Ji."
A wife who does not see things straight
is destroying order for the King and his people.
This is the will of the people.
It is the voice of the people.
These are false accusations.
Your Majesty.
Please do not let your emotions get in the way.
The Queen Dowager has already agreed to this.
Are you not afraid of the heavens?
Someday, this world...
will fear me more than the heavens.
Take her away.
Mother!
Mother.
Please do not leave.
You must stay in my place.
Watch over your father and grandmother.
Protect them well.
Do you understand?
- Stand back! - Mother!
Mother!
My child!
My child. Let her go.
Mother...
Child, child!
My child!
Mother, Mother.
Mother, Mother!
Mother...
You can let her go.
Mother!
Please do not leave, Mother.
Mother...
Attack!
You...
How could you dare?
It's all over now. Go in peace.
Why did you agree to depose the Queen?
Why?
Mother!
Royal Concubine.
I couldn't have changed the Queen Mother's mind without you.
You promised to make me the Queen of the palace.
You have not forgotten, have you?
Even after you become Queen
how can I trust that you will not betray me?
Will you trust me?
Once the palanquin is out of the city, stab the deposed Queen to death.
Under one sky...
two suns cannot exist.
Now that his interactions with the Queen are known
it seems he is planning a rebellion.
Stop right there!
Your Majesty, it is dangerous.
Stand aside.
I have something to ask my uncle.
Stand down.
Uncle.
Are the things I've seen and heard true?
Uncle, did you...
and the Queen?
- Your Majesty. - You tried to cover up that dirty crime!
So, you attempted to attack my throne.
Is that really the truth?
You have fallen for their wicked lies.
Have you lost your sense of judgment?
Answer me!
Tell me what the truth is.
I told you to answer me.
I have lost your trust, Your Majesty.
I could not stop their evil plots.
I will pay for that sin through death.
However...
please open up your heart.
Hear the sincerity of Her Majesty, the Queen.
He is your son, Your Majesty.
Her Majesty, the Queen gave her life to give birth to him.
He is this nation's royal lineage.
Arrest him at once!
Even as a spirit...
I will make all of you pay.
Isn't it pretty?
Mother made this doll for me.
Baby, don't cry.
Mother will be back soon.
Have you made your decision?
Prince Chuseong attempted a rebellion.
I will officially arrest all those involved in this treason.
What will you do about the child?
He will be a royal child and raised as the Crown Prince.
However, what if he grows up and learns about his mother...
I will make a law.
If anyone is to speak about the deposed Queen in the next century
I will punish them severely, no matter who it is.
Your Majesty.
If you...
do not follow my orders...
I will put my throne on the line to fight this.
I am merely your loyal subject.
I will do as you wish.
Studying abroad in the Qing Dynasty for three years helped me discover myself.
It helped me figure out what I am capable of doing.
It was a meaningful time in my life.
If one wishes to know the future, one must study the past. (in Chinese)
If one wants to know a person's future prospects, one must understand his past.
We must look to history to help us find solutions to the problems at hand.
Marvelous! This young master is well learned
and outstanding in literary talent.
Marvelous!
This is mine!
- I got it first! - This is mine!
This is mine!
Don't fight over it.
Stop it.
Young Master Gyeon Woo...
I like you so much.
Turn around.
I regret that you wish to leave.
1,000 cups of wine do not suffice when true friends meet
while a word is too much when there's no meeting of the minds.
Cheers.
I worked hard even among the best in the world.
Even amongst those people, I made great achievements.
[Success in Qing Dynasty]
With dreams of a high-ranking job...
I am returning to Joseon.
Teacher Gyeon. This here is Joseon.
Brother?
Long time no see, sister.
What are you saying? This is Joseon.
I suppose that arrogance of yours wouldn't have disappeared.
What is this squished fermented soybean-looking thing?
Hey now, it was a gift given to me by the Emperor.
Treat him with care.
Teacher Gyeon, stay here a moment.
What?
This isn't the present you brought me, is it?
Son!
I have arrived safely.
I have waited so long for you, Son.
Let me take a look at you.
You look more handsome than ever since you've been in Yanjin.
Would my natural looks ever change?
The long trip must have been hard on you.
Let's hurry. The King is waiting.
Why is your hand so rough?
Your Majesty.
The Minister of Education and his son are here.
Do you remember?
During the Year of the Ox, you directed discussions on Zhuzi Yulei.
You startled me along with all the government ministers.
It was an honor that you bestowed the nickname "national treasure" on me.
How could I ever forget?
I heard that the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty did not wish for you to go.
But you left regardless of that. Is that true?
I am just a mere scholar.
However, I wished to work for you and the people of Joseon.
Minister of Education, you have a great son.
I thank you, Your Majesty.
What shall I do now?
I cannot use this national treasure in just any way.
No matter where you place me, I will do my very best there.
You have been away for three years?
I will specially open up my purse to you.
You may enjoy all the luxuries you wish until I summon you.
Relieve your body of the fatigue of travel.
Thank for your benevolence.
Wow!
Where did you learn such a thing?
Look at them all fall right in.
All right. Everyone have a drink.
All right.
"Do" as in cup. "Mi" as in fall. "No" as in wave.
Cups that fall like a wave.
Also known as domino.
It's the newest drinking trend over in Yanjin.
Did you give up on your studies in the Qing Dynasty?
Were you living a life with no purpose?
Come now.
A man who lives with his nose in a book cannot become a great man.
You need to drink, have women, and gamble every now and then.
Catch two rabbits with one stone.
So it worked out for you.
Have our backs later on, would you?
You've met with the King too.
You will only be moving up now.
"Hwa Moo Shib Il Hong."
Power may look glamorous.
Yet like a fistful of flower petals that blow in the wind...
it is very empty and false.
Listen to him complaining.
All right, then.
Enjoy yourselves to your heart's content since His Majesty is treating.
Cheers!
Gyeon Woo?
It's been a long time. When did you get back?
All of Joseon knows about it, but I guess you don't.
Ah, have a drink.
It is paid for by the King.
Let's just say that I drank it.
Our Chang Hwi here can't accept drinks from just anyone now.
He's in that kind of position now.
I guess the news didn't get to Qing Dynasty.
Chang Hwi was promoted to the ministry of internal auditing.
Of course.
I guess your father got you a position there.
Ah...
I did hear that you got a leading scholar as your tutor.
Yet you still failed the examination. Twice.
Yes, you have the attention of the King.
You must be excited.
However, you need to be careful.
A person who stands out too much will get what he deserves.
The more beautiful a flower is, the more weeds there are.
Don't worry about me.
Worry about yourself.
You didn't even get your job on your own.
What if you happen to slip?
Wouldn't you look so insufficient?
We will wait and see.
Who will slip first?
He got promoted through a back door and bragged about it.
I feel like a lump I've had for 10 years is finally going down.
Why is he so arrogant?
All right, unwanted guests are gone now.
- Let's get this party going. - Let's do it!
Ah, do you know about the cyclone drink?
This is the second most popular way to drink in Yanjin right now.
Let's see.
Wow!
Joseon has changed a lot as well.
