(Episode 33)
Can we make an antidote with these flowers?
I cannot be sure.
But we must try everything we can.
- Keep digging. - Right, yes.
Get them!
- Go on, run. Run. - Stop!
You fools.
Wait, you... You are...
A ghost?
How are you alive?
Fire!
- Fire! - The poppy field.
There is a fire! Fire!
What a mess.
Go and put it out. Now!
- Yes, master. - Hurry!
Wait right here.
Put the fire out! Put out the fire!
Fire!
Put the fire out!
- What? A fire? - Hurry!
- Move faster. - Okay.
Go, go.
The poppy field is on fire?
They are putting it out,
but it is so dry that the fire is spreading quickly.
Get my horse immediately!
Look at what you have done.
Why would you do such a thing?
Hwa Gun.
I am sorry, Father.
But I do not regret my decision.
Let us go and ask your grandfather for mercy...
No. No, no.
Leave this place to me, and run away.
I will contact you when he has calmed down.
You must escape his wrath while you still can.
I cannot run away.
- Hwa Gun. - The Crown Prince...
is alive.
I will not run away.
I will protect him.
I am sorry, Father.
What happened here is between us.
I will cover this up.
You must never, in any situation,
step forward. Do you understand?
But Father...
What on earth happened?
Tell me what happened.
There was an intruder.
- An intruder? - Yes.
He escaped with the prisoner we had underground...
and all the children.
So you let them all go?
Master Dae Mok!
Until now,
I gave you numerous opportunities.
And yet,
you failed to protect the heart of our operations!
Father...
Please forgive me this once.
Forgive you?
You burned the heart of Pyunsoo Group.
And you want to be forgiven?
I did it!
Say that again.
I am...
the person who burned down...
the poppy field.
Hwa Gun.
No, Master Dae Mok.
It was not her doing.
The Crown Prince did it!
The Chief Peddler... No.
The real Crown Prince...
is alive!
The real Crown Prince...
is still alive?
Yes. The real Crown Prince...
escaped with his bodyguard.
I saw them with my own two eyes!
Is this the truth and nothing but the truth?
- Yes. - No.
The Crown Prince did not set the fire. I did!
- Watch out. - Who are you?
Your Highness.
What are you two doing here?
Your Highness.
You were alive. You are alive.
You too. Why are you such a mess?
I am so glad that...
you are alive.
What did I tell you? I said he would be alive.
What are you doing here?
We came to steal some flowers...
to try to make an antidote.
Those children are...
Yes.
They are the workers from the field.
The Ki Chal Team will catch up soon. We must go.
Let us go.
Come along. Walk quickly.
Careful now.
Hurry.
Hwa Gun.
What do you think...
Pyunsoo Group means to me?
It is more precious...
than life itself.
Just as...
the Crown Prince is to me.
Anyone who betrays Pyunsoo Group...
will not be spared.
Even if it is my own granddaughter.
I have lived the way I wanted,
so I have no regrets.
Is that...
all you have to say?
Please tell...
my father...
that I am sorry.
You over there.
Yes, master.
Strike her with your sword.
Strike her!
Hwa Gun!
Hwa Gun.
Your Highness.
Hwa Gun.
No. No, Hwa Gun.
Hwa Gun.
You are a monster.
How could you kill your own blood?
How could you?
Hwa Gun!
Hwa Gun.
Kill the Crown Prince.
If you do not,
you will die by my hands.
Do you understand?
Yes, master.
Did you hear him?
Find them right this instant!
- Yes, master! - Yes, master!
Mommy!
- Mommy! - You are home!
- Oh my gosh! - Mommy!
- Let me look at you. - Mommy!
Oh my gosh.
- Oh my gosh. - Mommy!
Oh my gosh.
Mother!
Mak Soon!
Who is this? Is this our baby Mak Soon?
Oh my gosh.
- You are safe. - My gosh.
My gosh, Mak Soon.
Wol.
Yes, Chief.
I will be back to see you soon, so take care of yourself...
and the other girls.
I shall.
Do we have some time?
There is someone...
I need to see here.
You should come back another time.
Many are waiting for you, Your Highness.
You are incredible.
You keep evading the angel of death.
Were you...
terribly worried?
I thought the deities...
had turned against us.
Why do you look like that?
I apologize for concerning you.
You brats. Stop stressing out this old man.
Thank you for coming back.
A healing crisis?
"Sun". This is my name, is it not?
Are you saying this character appears on my body?
As your body reacts to the poison, it cures you of it.
That is why you were able to live after taking three poppy pills.
Healing crisis.
That is it. This character...
can prove the Crown Prince's identity, can it not?
Yes. If this proves that he is the Crown Prince,
he can reclaim the throne.
You can attest to it, can you not?
Then we can prove that Dae Mok put a fake king...
in his place.
I would have done so if that were possible.
It would be one thing if we had the placenta jar.
My testimony alone will not be sufficient to prove his identity.
Why do we need the placenta jar?
The late King hid evidence...
within the placenta jar that could prove the Crown Prince's identity.
He wrote that the real Crown Prince...
would have this reaction as a result of the healing crisis.
I am positive...
he said he would hide the placenta jar within the palace.
I have no idea where he hid it.
Then we must...
find the placenta jar.
We are in trouble.
You must flee from here. Dae Mok's men...
are on their way to capture the Chief Peddler.
- Search the place! - Yes, master.
Once we find you,
I will rip you to shreds myself.
What the...
These rats.
Go out and find them.
If we do not find them, we are all dead!
Search the premises thoroughly.
- Yes, master! - Yes, master!
Did Master Dae Mok...
really kill Lady Hwa Gun?
Is that really true?
I cannot believe that he killed his own granddaughter.
You do not know...
how to cry, do you?
Gon, you are my person, right?
Yes, my lady.
I am your person.
Protect His Highness as you protect me.
That is how...
I can survive.
Understand?
Until the moment I die,
I will obey your command.
Do you mean...
the entire poppy field burned down?
I will keep it confidential for the time being.
However, even if I keep it quiet,
after 15 days...
Master Dae Mok, you must find a solution now.
What is the matter?
Is Pyunsoo Group that important to you?
Is it worthy of killing your precious granddaughter?
Is it worth...
more than family?
Is Pyunsoo Group that important?
The poppy field...
is the heart of Pyunsoo Group.
Even if she is my granddaughter...
For once,
I hoped you would prioritize family over Pyunsoo Group.
You said you gained power to protect those you love.
If you have no family to protect,
what is the point of having Pyunsoo Group?
How dare you...
attempt to preach at me?
In the end,
you will lose everything that you treasure.
You will end up having a tragic and lonely death.
How dare you?
This is the end of our relationship.
Since the father has abandoned his child,
his child will also do the same.
My lady, what brings you here?
I heard that you appointed...
the leader of Bureau of Water Supply as Head of Supply Office.
Is it true?
By handing over the authority to produce currency,
you gave Pyunsoo Group control over...
the entire market and transportation of goods.
Is that...
also true?
Is that what you came here to say?
Do you not know the leader of Bureau of Water Supply?
He is your father's enemy.
He is loyal to Pyunsoo Group, and makes people suffer.
Things have changed now.
The leader of Bureau of Water Supply works for me.
He is someone I need.
- Sun. - My lady.
I will become a king who is truly for his subjects.
I will bring justice...
to the world so that people do not suffer like my father did.
If you want to be for the subjects,
why do you work with those who torment them?
My lady, I must fight against Dae Mok.
You know well how strong and malicious he is.
I do not have much of a choice.
But you choose to work with the leader of the Bureau?
I can always correct the choice that I make.
My priority is to gain strength to fight against Dae Mok.
Once I destroy him,
I will use the power for my subjects.
All the subjects may be dead by then.
Once you work with them, you will turn into one of them.
Stop it. That is enough.
- Sun. - If that is all you have to say,
it is time that you leave.
I am going to the temple for a while.
You have been kidnapped before.
Outside the palace is too dangerous.
Soon, it is the anniversary of my father's death.
I want to visit his tomb.
I would like to do a prayer while I am there.
Then take my mother with you.
I will also take Kko Mool.
I will take care of Kko Mool.
Dae Mok released all of his guards...
to search for your whereabouts.
We do not know for how long we can stay hiding here.
Right.
We can no longer fight against Pyunsoo Group outside the palace.
Do you mean we should give up the fight,
and give into Pyunsoo Group?
It is the contrary.
It is time to fight from inside the palace.
You are correct.
The Crown Prince must reclaim his throne.
That is the only way to fight against Dae Mok.
Dae Mok and Pyunsoo Group have control over the palace.
He is correct.
Your Highness, you must return to your throne.
Reclaim your throne from the fake king,
and make things right for the country.
I cannot...
reclaim my throne.
You are absolutely right.
Going back to the palace now is a suicidal attempt.
- It is too risky. - Are you...
afraid?
I do not have the right to be a king.
What do you mean by that, Your Highness?
Dae Mok told me.
He and my father...
assassinated the late king.
Your Highness, do not believe what Dae Mok says.
He is right. That is impossible.
He was trying to trick you.
- Is it not right? - What Dae Mok said...
is true.
- Lady. - The one who...
brought Pyunsoo Group to the royal family...
Is it my father?
Yes.
Master.
I am the son of the late king...
who plotted conspiracy and killed his own brother.
Am I the real king?
Sun pretended he was me...
and became a puppet of Dae Mok.
Is he a false king?
Who is the true king?
And who is...
the false king?
Gosh, it is really big.
- Can you do this? - Show it to us.
- Here. - You missed it.
Nanny. I do not...
want to return to the palace.
I understand how you must feel.
Sun has changed.
Could you stop him, please?
It feels like he is walking on thin ice these days.
I am so scared and nervous.
What if the real king returns one day?
The real king...
cannot return.
Pardon?
Master Chun Soo is...
the real king.
What?
Did you say Master Chun Soo is the real king?
My lady.
Nanny. I am going to go and pay a visit to my dad.
Okay. I will escort you.
I want to go alone.
Sun told you to keep an eye on me, did he not?
Well...
I do not wish to go back to the palace,
but I will not run away...
leaving you and Kko Mool behind.
My lady.
I caught it. Did you see it?
- Yes. That was good. - Do it again.
Gosh, I missed it this time.
Darling.
When did you get these spots?
Look at me closely. Here.
I am a close friend of the man who saved you.
I am developing...
the antidote to cure you all.
It was last night when I got these spots.
Is that so?
I will make good medicine,
so you can be all better soon.
This cannot be cured.
That is not true.
It can be cured.
Did the chief peddler not come with you?
He came with me,
but he had to drop by at some place first.
