[Episode 17]
Did you send assassins after the boss?
Is that all you have to say?
You come to see your grandfather after five years
and that is the first thing you say?
Leave him alone.
He is the man I love.
If he were to be harmed, it would hurt me, as well.
If you kill him...
then I will kill myself.
Oh! What happened?
Please keep quiet.
The Pyeonsoo-hwe sent assassins after us.
That bastard, Dae Mok.
Dae Mok? Who is that?
Mister.
Then...
you're saying Young Master Chun Soo has been fighting the Pyeonsoo-hwe?
I should not tell you any more.
What do you mean?
Why would you keep such secrets from me?
Boss asked me to keep it from you.
If you got involved with him and his fight with the Pyeonsoo-hwe...
he said it could put you in danger, Ga Eun.
It could put me in danger?
Yes, that is right.
He cherishes you so much.
You have no idea.
Young Master Chun Soo?
I do not know who you're looking for, but I am not Chun Soo.
Is this because of the letter I left?
Or is it because I did not keep my promise to you?
Is that why you're pretending not to know me?
I never received a letter from you or made a promise to you.
What are you doing here?
Were you worried about me?
Yes.
Do I look that similar to this Chun Soo?
By the look in your eyes...
he must have been your first love.
Are you all right?
You're not even Young Master Chun Soo.
So, why do you keep showing up?
You have the same face and the same voice.
I do not want to hear you worry about me.
Do not come around anymore.
That was why...
He took on everything dangerous by himself all this time.
And pretended not to know me.
I am sorry for pretending not to know you.
Keeping my distance from you...
was my way of trying to save your life.
But, not for one moment...
did I forget you.
If I kill him...
you will die too.
Did you come here to threaten your grandfather?
I did not come to threaten you. I came to make a deal.
A deal?
All right.
What will you give me for his life?
A successor for you, Grandfather.
Would the chief of the Pyeonsoo-hwe suffice?
I will become that chief of the Pyeonsoo-hwe.

I told you stay put and behave. What is it?
I had something to report.
Is it urgent?
No, it is not.
If it were...
would you have assigned it to me?
You may leave.
If I guarantee the boss stays alive
you will become the chief of the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
I'd better introduce you to the members.
I have brought the new chief of the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
Since you are Dae Mok's granddaughter, it may seem appropriate.
However, during the gathering of the large merchants...
why did you side with the boss of the pack carriers
instead of the Pyeonsoo-hwe?
As the head merchant, I chose what would be profitable.
The Pyeonsoo-hwe encountered a problem in Waegwan when our copper was stolen.
You were also in Waegwan that day.
I see the Pyeonsoo-hwe's sources are still excellent.
Yes, I had a large deal in Waegwan that day.
You have left us once already. Why are you coming back now?
It is because of what occurred in Waegwan.
We could not even protect the copper.
It was a real setback to the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
After watching that absurd mistake
I felt I had to step forward.
Absurd mistake? The Pyeonsoo-hwe?
We have a longer history than the Joseon Royal Family.
Can we allow ourselves to become such a mess?
I will become the chief of the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
I will make our foundation strong again.
Chief...
Uh, I mean...
Elder, why have you called me here?
The deadly flower fields.
Pardon me?
I will manage the fields from now on.
Help me with my work.
Ah, but...
The work of managing those fields is too lowly of of a job for you, Elder.
Lowly?
That is where the Pyeonsoo-hwe gets its power.
If I can get control of those fields
I know I can find a way to be successor again.
Then, my Hwa Goon...
She will not think I am so useless either.
Are you all right, Young Miss?
Gon.
Take me to His Highness.
I wish to see him.
Has his wound gotten worse?
Is he conscious now?
I am so worried.
Is it all right for you to be moving around like this?
Look.
It is fine, isn't it?
I am healthy enough to walk with you.
Then please walk me to that spot there.
Oh, I do not think that will do.
I don't ever...
want to turn away from you again.
I went to see you five years ago.
Back then...
I turned away, thinking that it was what was best for you.
I have always regretted it.
Young Master.
Yes?
Why?
What took you so long?
Now...
I will not leave your side.
Am I interrupting?
Not at all.
What brings you here, Head Merchant?
I came because I was worried.
I see that you are safe now, so that is good enough for me.
I apologize for alarming you.
Yes, please do not scare me like that again.
I thought perhaps I had lost you.
I thought my heart had stopped.
Thank you for worrying about me.
I will see you soon at the large merchants meeting.
Ga Eun, I don't want you to misunderstand...
I don't have a relationship with the head merchant.
Really. Please trust me.
Did I say anything?
Wait, Ga Eun.
The head merchant and I, we...
"We"?
I thought you hadn't been able to forget me for even one moment.
I could not forget you.
That is the truth.
Then what is your relationship with her?
Well, I can hold hands with you in front of her.
By the way, you are not...
jealous, are you?
No, I am just curious.
Ow!
Young Miss, should I get rid of her?
Why should I be concerned with a lowly girl like that?
I am not a useless girl like that.
His Highness will realize that soon.
I can offer him something that no other woman can.
The only person who can give it to him will be me.
Why did the Yangsucheong suddenly demand repayment?
Why did they insist on cash payments?
I had promised to find out the reason.
It was all a plan for them to get the rights to mint currency.
Mint currency?
All to mint currency?
Thankfully...
Professor Woo Bo of Sungkyunkwan and a Hansungbu soldier stopped it.
He is now the Minister of Government Administration.
Former Professor at Sungkyunkwan Woo Bo
has now been appointed Minster of Government Administration.
The problem is...
Yangsucheong will not give up so easily.
- That is true. - Yes.
In order to avoid this trouble in the future...
Pack carriers, large merchants, and all merchants
we must all join together as one.
Everyone, please trust me.
Will you join together in strength?
We will.
If we are faced with a crisis, we will trust you and follow you.
We will all join you, Boss.
- Let's join. - Follow the boss.
- We will join together. - Yes.
We all agree.
Thank you.
Then I will take care of the Saganwun, Hongmungwan, and Saheonbu.
The three ministries must be cleaned up.
I will try to gather people who will fight against the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
The boss of the pack carriers?
It was the former Sungkyunkwan professor who brought in the copper, as well.
It was the boss who made Lord Woo Bo into a new minister, as well.
How could a pack carrier boss have the power to stop Dae Mok?
I looked into it and he is not what I expected.
Not only did he earn the trust of the Dowager Queen.
He also has great trust from all of the merchants.
Is he...
one of the Dowager Queen's men?
I cannot be sure.
I know he earned her favor after this incident with the copper.
Is that so?
Your Majesty.
The Dowager Queen is here to see you.
Thank you, King.
Thanks to you, we were able to stop Dae Mok.
The crisis of the money circulation is over.
The people have overcome a great danger.
It was not me.
I heard the boss of the pack carriers helped a great deal.
What do you mean?
You trusted your mother.
It was you who bought us four days.
You achieved a big feat for the country.
Therefore, I will do my best to keep my promise to you.
Next time I come...
I will bring Ga Eun.
Your Majesty.
The Dowager Queen has agreed to make Young Miss Ga Eun into a royal concubine.
Why do you look so down?
Hyun Seok.
If the real Crown Prince were alive...
would he not be controlled by the Pyeonsoo-hwe?
Would he be a great King for all the people?
Why would you think that way?
Didn't the real Crown Prince pass away?
That's right.
I saw it... with my own eyes.
Then you are the King of Joseon.
You always look at me as if I were a real King.
If you continue to look at me like that, I will start to get greedy.
I will want to become a real King, fight the Pyeonsoo-hwe, and win.
I will want to save all the people, and also...
perhaps, Young Miss Ga Eun could be mine.
I have started to have that dream.
Why is that a dream? You can achieve that.
Your Majesty, you are the King.
Do not hesitate or hold back saying that you are fake.
I am certain.
There must be those in the government who oppose the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
We must find them and gather our strength.
So, how is your job counting money in the markets?
The people are happy the crisis of money circulation is over.
It is not too bad.
Oh my.
They gave a level two councilor a level seven post.
They are basically telling you to quit.
Yet, you accept it and sit there counting money?
I can hear the wailing of those who depend on you.
Rather than that...
The most noble of men, Woo Bo, has returned to government.
So, all eight cities of Joseon are talking about it.
If someone heard you, they would think I'm a real minister.
It is not my low post that is surprising.
It is more shocking that you left your life to come back to government.
Isn't that right?
Is that how it works?
Listen up, Kwang Yeol.
I want to introduce you to someone.
Will you meet him?
My name is Park Moo Ha, Officer of Government Administration.
This person here helped out with the copper situation.
He is the boss of the pack carriers.
You are the infamous boss of the pack carriers?
Look, Kwang Yeol.
We want to change up all of the administrative personnel.
Someone must do the job of head prosecutor
which has been empty for five years.
I would like you to take that post.
We will recommend you to the Dowager Queen.
Recommend me to the Dowager Queen?
Yes.
Please help to raise up the Saheonbu.
I am sorry.
I, Kim Kwang Yeol, may be lacking
but I cannot become a subject of the Dowager Queen.
Pardon me?
Only the King has the authority to appoint people.
If you assign people to posts through the Dowager Queen
is that not going to split this nation in two?
Ah, well...
Then what if His Majesty were to appoint you?
Will you accept it then?
You use the King as an excuse.
Honestly, you have no desire to stand on either side.
You believe there is no hope in Joseon right now.
I will ask you only one thing.
If you have no interest in government posts...
then why did you accept such a low position at the Saseomshi?
Are you looking down on me?
The Pyeonsoo-hwe was using the Saseomshi.
You knew they were using it to get the rights to mint currency.
You were going to accept that lowly post.
And do what you could to stop them, were you not?
How...
No one acknowledged your work.
It must have been so hard for you all this time.
The government right now...
needs people like you.
You are not just some pack carrier boss.
Looking at you, I am reminded of someone.
You look so much like him when he was young.
I thought it was just a feeling.
Now that I see you, it is not just your face.
Even the way you talk and your mannerisms...
everything you do is like him.
So many people in this world are alike.
Will you tell me who you are now?
Your Highness, isn't this dangerous?
I agree.
I must put my life on the line in order to fight the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
All I can give to a subject willing to risk his life...
is the the truth.
The Crown Prince is alive.
This nation is still important to the heavens.
Dear Jae Heon.
I need to meet you in person to tell you something important.
Can you return to the city as soon as you possibly can?
Send this letter to Jae Heon in the Hamgyu household.
Yes, My Lord.
What's wrong with her?
Do you truly want to repay me?
If you do...
become a court lady.
Have you made a decision?
The Dowager Queen trusts you, and she is waiting.
Young Miss Ga Eun!
We have a big problem!
She set up a store in a wasteland?
This Ga Eun sounds like an amazing young lady.
Our Ga Eun has determination.
That is why the boss fell for her.
She is the girl he loves.
I can be quite determined, as well.
What's going on?
Wake up, Yang.
Yang? Yang, please wake up.
Excuse me.
Excuse us, please.
Ga Eun!
What happened?
- It's Yang. - Yang!
It really is Yang!
I thought she went to the temple. What happened?
Get her on my back.
Help us. Please help.
Move, move.
- Yang! - Yang!
Yang!
- Professor! - Elder!
Elder, Elder.
What's wrong?
It's Yang...
- Get her inside. - Yes.
What is this?
Professor.
What is it?
It's poison.
Oh, Yang.
Yes, are you awake now?
Yang, what happened to you?
Can you tell me?
Mom sent me there so I wouldn't be hungry.
The place I followed the monk to was not a temple.
Then what was it?
It was flower field deep in the mountains.
There were girls my age.
We picked flowers all day and worked making those pills.
Do you know approximately how many children there were?
Do you remember?
About 20...
But, they were all sick.
It can't be.
All those children can't be addicted to the pills, can they?
Do you think you can describe to us where that place is?
All right, then.

Yang!
She cannot do it yet.
Yang.
She will end up dying if she can't get an antidote soon.
She is only eight years old.
Is there no way to save her?
We should try to save her if we can.
However, this poison...
Is it a poison that even you don't know?
It is not a natural poison, but one made for someone.
I do not know how to treat it.
If you don't know how to treat it...
then it's a very scary poison.
That is true and also...
I believe that the Pyeonsoo-hwe may be behind this.
What do you mean by that?
Those who opposed the Pyeonsoo-hwe...
I heard rumors that they were found dead with red spots on their body.
They were supposedly killing people.
That rumor vanished, all of a sudden.
An organization that can make rumors disappear all at once...
is not very common.

Yang, you can do this later.
Get some sleep tonight and draw it tomorrow.
Tomorrow morning...
I may not be able to draw it tomorrow morning.
Yang!
My friends are still there.
I want to save them quickly.
I am making her some medicine. I will check on it.
That is enough now.
But, I could not finish drawing it.
No, this is more than enough.
Do not worry about a thing.
Now... get some sleep.
Sleep.
My child.
You sleep so well.
My child.
Subtitle ripped and resynced by redixion
[Episode 18] Young Miss Ga Eun!
My Yang. Where is that poor child?
You'll end up passing out, at this rate.
Over here.
Yang... Yang.
Is she sleeping?
She died.
Yang. It's Mom!
Yang!
Yang! Yang!
It's Mom.
It's Mom!
Yang!
Young Miss Ga Eun.
This is the map she drew before she died.
She put her heart into it.
Please pass it on to the boss.
I will.
It's your mom.
"Yeok Ae Ji San."
What does it mean?
"Yeok Ae Ji San"?
I have never heard of it.
What a strange name.
It could be a code that they use with each other.
Young Master.
About Mae Chang...
Never mind.
I will tell you once I'm positive.
The people from Yangsucheong are looking for Yang.
It seems that the Pyeonsoo-hwe are definitely connected to this.
Those bastards.
She's only a child.
We need to look for this place, as soon as possible.
The market people saw you take Yang.
Will you be all right?
I'll be fine.
It is all my fault.
Even if we starved to death...
we should have starved together.
It is all my fault.
It is not your fault. Yangsucheong was at fault.
They are the ones who took your store when you were trying to make a living.
Young Miss.
They are the ones who did something wrong.
So, why are you blaming yourself?
I know it is hard, but you must overcome it.
You need to live through this in order to see the day they pay for it.
I...
I will make sure that day comes.
Young Master.
Ga Eun.
You heard that people from Yangsucheong are looking for Yang, right?
Just for a while...
can you hide out Icheon?
Icheon?
I'm worried.
The chief of Yangsucheong threatened you before.
You can go with Wiggly and her mother.
Please go to Icheon for the time being.
The pack carriers there will take good care of you.
But...
I am sorry for asking you to leave so suddenly.
However, just this once...
can you do what I ask?
Thank you, Ga Eun.
Also...
I'm sorry.
No, Young Master.
It is I... who am sorry.
By the way, what did you want to say earlier?
Oh... it was nothing.
Before you leave...
will you give me one day of your time?
I will escort Young Miss Ga Eun to Icheon myself.
Do not worry.
All right.
Chung Woon.
Yes?
Before Ga Eun leaves for Icheon
I plan to tell her the truth.
By truth, you mean...
the incident regarding Elder Gyu Ho?
Yes.
I was going to wait until I destroyed the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
Then I was going to confess everything.
But I don't think I want to delay it any longer.
If it is Young Miss Ga Eun...
she will understand.
If she does...
that would be great.
I know she will.
You and Young Miss Ga Eun have a lot in common.
You think of others before yourselves.
You both have that warmth.
So, I'm positive that once she knows the truth about everything...
she will understand your position, Your Highness.
Ga Eun.
Young Master Chun Soo.
We are here, Young Master.
It's my father.
Today, Young Master Chun Soo is here too.
I wanted to destroy the Pyeonsoo-hwe.
I planned to come see you after I confessed the truth to Ga Eun.
I came too soon.
I am ashamed.
The King who killed you, Father...
I finally met him.
The King has joined forces with the Pyeonsoo-hwe and is harassing the people.
Young Master Chun Soo is fighting the Pyeonsoo-hwe like you did.
So, please protect Young Master Chun Soo.
Leaving behind someone you love...
causes so much heartache.
When you left, Father...
you must have been in so much pain.
I finally realize that now.
Ga Eun.
I... have something to confess to you.
I should have told you five years ago.
- I can no longer... - It is very...
beautiful here.
Ga Eun...
Young Master.
Will you promise me just one thing?
Even if I'm not by your side...
do not run recklessly into dangerous situations.
Do not get yourself injured.
All right.
I promise you.
Now...
I think I can leave in peace.
I had dream that I was with you, Young Master.
However, now I will dream a bigger dream.
If I can dream the same dream as you...
I will always be with you, even if cannot be at your side.
That is how I will think.
I will join you soon.
Do not cry.
The herbal medicinal store is closing?
What do you mean?
I have only heard rumors, so I cannot be certain.
What about my mother and Wiggly?
And what about Young Miss Ga Eun?
I apologize. I do not know yet.
Prepare for a trip out of the palace. I must go there.
If you are caught going by Dae Mok, it will be dangerous.
If they really do leave, I will never see them again!
Get ready to go.
Yes, Your Majesty.
It's over there, Your Majesty.
Mother.
Oh! Mister!
That child is your sister, Your Majesty.
Mister, you're back.
Sis is not going back to see the King anymore.
So, you...
are Wiggly.
Yes. Who are you, Mister?
I...
I don't know you, Mister.
Do you know me, Mister?
A very long time ago...
I...
saw you once.
Really?
Can I...
hug you for a moment?
Is that child your little sister?
Don't call him Mister. Call him Brother.
Brother?
You came all this way. You should see your mother, as well.
Oh yeah. Chun Soo is supposed to visit.
Oh! Brother!
There you are, Wiggly.
Come on. Let's go.
Lee...
Lee... Lee Seon?
Let's go see your mother.
Let's go inside.
Please spare me.
Please let me live, Elder Dae Mok.
I missed my family so much so I disobeyed you.
Please... please forgive me this once.
People do not suddenly rebel, for no reason.
What is it?
What gave you courage?
You have become much closer to the Dowager Queen.
Please... save me, Elder Dae Mok.
The Dowager Queen wants to give you a precious gift.
That is why I gave you a gift, as well.
How does it feel to see your family?
It is not just my life.
My family's life is in your hands, Elder.
Forgive me this once.
I will never again...
I will never disobey you again!
Forgive me.
Forgive me just this once.
Please forgive me.
Soon, I will see you in your private quarters.
Your Majesty.
Are you all right, Your Majesty?
Was I...
dreaming?
Pardon me?
You met Lee Seon?
He was with Dae Mok.
He came to see his mother and sister.
I think he got caught by Dae Mok.
If it were not for Lee Seon today...
Dae Mok would have...
figured out my true identity.
I feel so sorry for Lee Seon.
He would be with his family if it weren't for me.
You did not get a chance to talk to him?
I only managed to get a message to him.
Can you tell that older brother something for me?
Tell him I will go see him on the first of the month.
You're going to meet Lee Seon?
You're going to be foolish enough to enter a tiger's den alone?
Lee Seon...
was on his knees in front of Dae Mok. He was begging for his life!
I cannot ignore Lee Seon when he is going through that.
If you enter the palace
there are always ears listening everywhere.
You must always act as the boss of the pack carriers.
Yes.
The Dowager Queen is pleased with your decision.
She sent a palanquin for your travels.
Get ready to enter the palace.
A court lady belongs to the King forever.
Keep that in mind.
Yes, Lady.
Young Miss.
What are you doing?
Young Master Chun Soo! Young Master!
Young Master Chun Soo!
Young Master, please stop Young Miss Ga Eun.
What's going on?
Young Miss...
intends on entering the palace and becoming a court lady.
What did you say?
Follow me.
Ga Eun!
Ga Eun, Ga Eun!
Ga Eun!
Ga Eun, Ga Eun!
Ga Eun!

[Ruler: Master of the Mask]
I will bring back Ga Eun right away.
Starting today, she will be one of the King's court ladies.
I will do as you wish, Queen.
You will set a trap and watch?
Did you know?
That he is not the real Crown Prince?
He is the son of a traitor.
Why do you continue to do dangerous things?
