Episode 49
[Hanseong Palace, Baekje]
There is one more thing with Eoraha's reform.
It's the dispersion of soldiers from each clan for his five-tier army.
He's doing a census to accept the people of Mahan as Baekje citizens.
What more is there?
Is there that much to reform?
Is he that unhappy with the nobility?
The nobility will lose tax rights.
It'll be controlled by Naedubu.
Tax rights?
The Jin clan, Wiryegung,
the Yeon and Guk clan will all be poor.
We'll have to beg for a stipend at Eoraha's feet.
Let's go to Dongmyeongjeon.
Prince Yeogwang of Wiryegung's designated Jeongnam General.
What's Jeongnam General?
It's just a fancy title.
I'm grateful, Eoraha.
Seokkop will step forward.
Yes!
Seokkop saved Eoraha's life.
He's designated junggunjang of Wisagun and will live in Seongjijeon.
Eoraha, I'm honored.
Seokkop, you said you would be my sword and attack Goguryeo.
I'll see about that.
Yes, Eoraha.
Is that all?
I didn't expect a reward when I went to battle at Mahan.
But, there hasn't been a time when soldiers weren't rewarded for battle.
He's right.
Without rewards, Namdang won't be happy.
How can a servant ask Eoraha for a reward?
The abundance of Baekje is a reward.
Eoraha's joy is a servant's greatest reward.
Quiet!
How dare you speak of the Jin clan's loyalty?
What's wrong with what he said?
You received much feudal territory and kindness from Eoraha.
What do you know about the sufferings of the nobility?
I wore armor and fought for 15 years while you took over Mahan.
Are we not men if we want a reward?
Are we not your servants?
Stop acting like little children!
Are you whining for a reward?
Namdang's always open.
Everyone has the right to state their opinions.
Let them speak.
Yes, Eoraha.
I would like to say something too.
It seems like you only want the Liaoxi people near you and want to get of us.
That's a bit excessive.
You became the leader of the Sa clan and will be Eoraha's son-in-law.
You don't know how the two dalsols feel.
Eoraha, what's the Baekje you dream of?
We would like to know.
The naebeopjwapyeong will tell everyone.
Yes, Eoraha.
[Wanwoldang, Hanseong Palace]
Do you think the prince's keeping his distance from you?
He has a warm personality and he's very considerate.
He wouldn't keep a distance because of my looks.
It's because you're Jinnam General Pahasu's daughter.
What do you mean?
Yeogeun knows the Baekje Eoraha dreams of.
He's keeping a distance because if you side with the Jin clan,
that could burden Eoraha.
It would be best if your family and in-laws are close.
If not, you must fulfill your duties as the Eoraha's daughter-in-law.
Can you promise that?
Your Highness, I don't know what to say.
Father and the Jin clan has been loyal to Eoraha.
Why would there be problems?
There shouldn't be.
But...
politics can cause problems at times.
Your Highness.
What's all the commotion?
There's a problem at Namdang.
The Jin clan's yelling. They're very unhappy.
Until now, each clan managed taxes and only put a tenth of it into state coffers.
From now on, taxes will be managed by Naedubu. [Naedubu: Ministry of Finance]
Three tenths will be given to the owners of the feudal territory.
Eoraha, that's the land we cultivated for centuries,
it's our land.
All of Baekje's lands are Eoraha's land.
Does it not make it Baekje land because you own it?
He's right.
With a five-tier army and soldiers from Mahan,
we need money to feed them and pay stipends.
When all soldiers are part of the five-tier army,
there's no need for the feudal lords to manage all those crops and goods.
Baekje's Eoraha's land, but you can't take away soldiers and tax rights.
Why do you have so much to say about Eoraha's decision?
Mok Nageunja, Mak Gohae, Ajikki, Payun and Wi Birang,
they all have feuldal territory, but they're not complaining!
Let me tell you why.
They were from the lowly class.
They didn't have anything, so they don't have anything to lose.
Watch what you say.
I told you to discuss things, not insult the servants.
A five-tier army, confiscation of tax rights and soldiers from Mahan...
if that's your decision, we've no choice,
but we're not beggars!
Just wipe us all out.
Uncle!
Eoraha's Baekje's lost.
But there's no way for us to change your mind.
Just kick out the Jin clan.
If we're getting in the way of your Baekje, just abandon us.
Why are you gradually killing us?
The Jin clan's family,
but I can't stand to watch their behavior anymore.
Cancel any talk of my marriage to Ai and abandon them.
Nonsense.
I expected oppositon, but not this.
It's too much, Eoraha.
It might be painful now,
but they don't know it'll be better for them in the future.
I think they're just acting like children because they'll lose their assets.
Wisajwapyeong.
I'm sorry.
I didn't expect to convince them overnight.
Let's discuss this matter again after the princess and Sa gi get married.
[Jin Jeong's house, Hanseong]
Godo.
He could take us down one by one, but look at what he's doing?
He's wiping out everyone at the same time.
We should go to Namdang and demonstrate.
He's right.
Send a message to all nobility and have them come to Hanseong.
Calm down.
We should fight now.
Let's wait until the wedding's over.
We need time to convince everyone.
[Cheolsan, Gongnabu, Baekje]
I'm sure Seokkop took Her Highness's ribbon.
Look again.
What should we do?
They will kill Seokkop if someone sees it.
Wanwoldang, Wi Birang, Jin Seung and Hae Geon.
They will try to kill Seokkop.
Let's go to Hanseong.
Hanseong?
We've to see Seokkop before anyone finds the ribbon.
[Ungniha, Hanseong: today's Hangang River]
This is an envoy from Heukchiguk.
You came a long way.
This way.
This is an envoy from Dongjin.
Welcome.
So this is Baekje.
Yes, princess.
Hurry, let's go to the palace.
I won't leave Hanseong until we get what we came for.
Yes.
[Hanseong Palace, Baekje]
Not here, over there.
Good.
These are wedding gifts from the Liaoxi gungong.
Hello.
Take them to Miangjeon.
Naedujwapyeong.
Where will the envoys stay?
There isn't enough rooms at Gwonchunjeon, I prepared some rooms outside the palace.
There are envoys from Heukchiguk, Gosanguk, Garaguk, Woe and Silla.
There must not be any complaints.
Okay.
Hey.
How did it go?
The princess's getting married.
It's not easy to meet Mak Gohae.
Won't the Wiryegung ruler be attending?
What if she sees Seokkop?
Nobody will pay attention to Seokkop today,
so don't worry too much.
Heukchiguk and Gosanguk are far away,
I'm grateful you came to congratulate the princess.
There's going to be a national wedding.
Make sure nothing goes wrong.
Yes, sir.
Princess, this must be the palace.
It's nice.
- Let's go quickly. - Okay.
Stop.
You can't go in there.
We're envoys from Woe.
Why are you stopping us with swords?
You're envoys from Woe?
Yes.
Envoys from Woe already met Eoraha.
There's a party for beggars at the market.
Go there
Beggars?
You dare to call a princess a beggar?
I'm the Chief Minister of Silla, Silseong.
King Naemul sends his deepest congratulations.
I heard Silla was very helpul in conquering Gara.
Please thank him.
Silla's in the far east, conditions aren't good for trading.
To the north, the Malgals are a threat,
to the east, the Woe
and to the south, Gara.
Let me know if there is a way for Baekje to help Silla.
You conquered Gara.
We need to trade with Gara.
We ask that you allow passage of Gara land and the southwest sea route.
I'm impressed with your concern for the future of your country.
Trade between countries will make the entire peninsula abundant.
Write an order to send to Gara allowing passage to Silla.
I'll obey your command.
You're very gracious.
Those are envoys and we're beggars?
We're envoys from Woe.
Stop it.
What's the problem?
They're claiming they're envoys from Woe,
but the Woe envoys were already here.
What should we do?
You should have dressed more appropriately.
You look like merchants.
Eoraha has already met all the envoys.
Princess!
Hey!
We're envoys!
We must see the king!
I'm sorry.
She said that she was from Woe, we couldn't use force on her.
Allow me to see you.
I put my life on the line to cross the ocean and meet you.
She put her life on the line to meet you.
Please allow it.
Of course.
I allow it.
I'm sorry, Eoraha.
Hello, I'm Princess Jingu of Yamatai.
You're from Woe?
Yes.
Envoys from Woe were already here.
There are many countries in Woe.
I don't know where they came from, but they don't represent us.
Does Yamatai represent Woe?
Yamatai is a small country with a radius of less than 20 km.
You call that a country?
That's smaller than a district in Baekje.
Some of the 54 statelets of Mahan are smaller than Yamatai.
Get up.
Present the gift.
Yes.
Eoraha, she presented a precious pearl for the princess.
Thank you.
I know a single pearl is a small gift.
Your Majesty, Yamatai is small and poor.
Why did you come when you had to put your life on the line?
Our country might be small, but the people of Yamatai have a dream.
It's to have our flag hanging in all of Woe.
The King of Yamatai asks that you be his master and father.
As a father cares for a child,
he hopes your warm heart will be light for Yamatai.
Don't return to Yamatai.
Your Majesty.
Baekje had a small start.
You'll stay here and learn about Baekje.
I'll be a parent that raises you and your country.
Your Majesty!
Take her to Wanwoldang.
Tell the queen to accept her and embrace her like a daughter.
I'll obey your command.
Yamatai was a small country in today's Nara Prefecture.
Later on, it conquers Japan and establishes the Yamato administration.
Many historians say Baekje had a great influence in Yamatai's growth.
The source was powers called doraeins.
It's presumed doraeins were Baekje people.
The close relationship of Baekje and Woe started during King Geunchogo's reign.
Eoraha, this is unprecendented.
How can you keep a barbaric princess in the palace?
If Woe doesn't trade with us and learn from us,
they will always remain as pirates and barbarians.
What does that have to do with Baekje?
When we unify the peninsula, Woe could become a problem.
They will attack our coast to get what they want.
We've to teach them about culture and trading,
so they can survive on their own.
Eoraha, at this rate, there will be so many foreign people,
we won't know who the real citizens of Baekje are.
The real citizens of Baeje are people who speak our language,
accept our culture and abide by our laws.
Eoraha.
I believe the sea route connecting China, Liaoxi and Gara
will be completed by the new Woe.
Do you think I'm funny?
I just think your behavior is cute.
I'll take care of you like an older brother, so don't worry about anything.
How old are you?
What about you?
I'm eighteen.
What about you?
Tell me.
Prince.
Prince!
[Wiryegung, Hanseong Palace]
The jojeongjwapyeong's here.
Let's go.
Do we have to attend the wedding of Yeogu's daughter?
Your aunt doesn't want to go as much as you.
Just have Yeogwang go with the jojeongjwapyeong.
Going there will bring back painful memories
and you'll have to see Wanwoldang.
You don't have to go.
Today isn't Yeojin's wedding day.
Yeohwa.
Today's the day to show everyone how strong Wiryegung is.
Today's the day you'll be presented to the nobility of Baekje.
Aunt,
I didn't think that far.
Move!
Wiryegung is passing.
Stop!
What is it?
Your Highness.
Dandan was here.
I've to find Dandan.
Eul Mahul buried her with the baby at Gomadangsan.
Are you sure it was her?
Are you sure?
You must miss her now that you're going to the palace after 15 years.
Probably.
Let's go.
Your Highness.
Aunt.
Are you alright?
I'm fine.
We'll be late.
Let's go.
Your Highness.
Why is the prince always at the Yamaguk princess's side?
Does it upset you?
Eoraha has a duty to have many women and expand the royal family.
I wouldn't qualify to be queen if I'm upset about that.
Yes, you're a wise woman.
Soseono, Onjo, former Eorahas,
my daughter, Yeojin, is marrying the leader of the Sa clan today.
She's so pretty.
So are you.
You'll say hello to Soseono.
I'll serve Eoraha, the queen and the prince with all my heart.
I'm taking the princess as my wife. We'll live a proper life.
I'm marrying Sa Gi.
I'll do my best to make my family proud.
The two are joined as one now.
Bow to Eoraha and the queen.
I don't know how to repay you for giving me your precious princess.
I didn't give birth to you, but you're my son now.
I'm very pleased.
Please take good care of her.
I'll do my best, mother.
I'll give your name a new meaning.
You raised the Sa clan.
You'll now use Gi meaning quide ropes, so you'll be a good guide.
Use that character for his name now.
We'll obey your command.
I'm honored, Eoraha.
Did you want to see me?
Yes, I would like to see Seokkop.
You qualify to enter, come in with me and see Seokkop.
No, I can't.
Why not?
I'm too nervous.
I just want to see him quietly in private.
Okay, I'll send Seokkop.
We haven't met before?
You're familiar for some reason.
Haven't we met?
How could we?
I'm from Mokjiguk.
How could we have met?
Close your mouth, you're drooling.
I can't help it.
I'm so happy.
I'm not, I want to cry.
I want to take it all back.
It's too late, my wife.
She met her match.
He's too good for her.
Oh, yeah!
Eoraha.
Why are you out here?
It felt nice to be back.
I'm sorry for walking around like this.
This palace is always open to you.
I'm sorry.
I know you're disappointed with me.
I wanted to apologize to you.
I don't believe that time heals everything.
It's just not true.
Hatred can grow stronger as time goes by.
Some grudges never go away.
Wiryegung was going to die even without the treason of my brothers.
Why do you say that?
Look at your Baekje now.
Are you satisfied with it?
You must be happy you conquered Mahan and Gara,
but what about the nobility?
The roots of Baekje are on the verge of being uprooted.
Princess.
The top nobility of Baekje is Wiryegung.
You had to uproot Wiryegung first to achieve the Baekje you dream of.
You achieved that through the Jin clan.
You started all this.
Princess, what's wrong?
It's nothing.
It's just a cold.
Eoraha.
All the envoys have turned in.
The princess and Sa Gi went to Miangjeongjeon.
I'll go to the naesinjwapyeong's house.
Eoraha, it's late.
The wedding's over.
I've to see the naesinjwapyeong before Namdang's held.
[Jin Jeong's house, Hanseong]
Eoraha's here.
You should go out and greet him.
It's a heavy crime to keep the gate locked up.
How dare they not open up?
Do we have to break down the gate?
I won't take this.
I'll break down the gate and lock them up in prison.
Eoraha.
What brings you here at this late hour?
You could have talked to us at the wedding.
It was urgent that I see all of you.
The royal guards are going to take control.
What?
Do you think we'll try to harm Eoraha?
Do you think we'll commit treason?
What do you need soldiers for?
Do you expect special treatment because you're the Jin clan?
Have the soldiers stand back.
Father!
I came to my relatives' house, everyone will leave.
Nobody is to interrupt us.
The prince will take everyone back to the palace.
How can I leave you here?
Do you expect us to be hostile.
I'll obey your command.
I would like to have a heart-to-heart talk with Seung.
Seung's the leader of the clan now.
I'll let you talk.
Eoraha, please don't forget how loyal we are.
Yeogu went to Jin Seung's house. [Wiryegung, Hanseong]
He must be desperate.
Yes.
He has to comfort Jin Seung before Namdang rises in uproar.
Let's see what happens.
Jin Seung won't back down easily.
Let's see who falls.
[Jin Ai's room, Jin Jeong's House]
Are you leaving already?
I only stayed because I couldn't refuse to have a cup of tea.
I've to obey Eoraha and return to the palace.
Prince.
This is why I'm burdened by the Jin clan.
Just look at them.
Think about how they will be if we get married.
Seokkop.
Yes, sir.
Your father's here in Hanseong.
My father?
He has never left Gongna before.
How come...
It must be urgent.
He's at the motel.
Ask the prince to let you go see him.
Okay.
I'd like to take a bath.
Yes, I'll get it ready.
Tell Mok Nageunja to tell Mak Gohae to secretly take royal guards.
They should protect father.
I'm not comfortable with this.
Yes, prince.
Eoraha, let me ask you.
Was the reform aimed at the Jin clan?
No.
Then, was it aimed at me?
Do you have a grudge because Sosukdang lost her baby?
Of course not.
There is a pain in my heart, but I don't blame you.
Then why?
What's making you do this?
Look back.
The Jin clan, Yeon Dosuk, Guk Naho,
the nobility you abandoned...
We're all staring at your back.
I'm going forward holding your hand.
Why did you let go and stay back?
I can't believe that.
Your parents are here in Hanseong?
Yes.
If you allow it, I would like to go and see them.
Of course.
They will be happy to hear that you're the jungunjang of Wisagun.
I'm sure they will be.
Wherever you are, whoever you're with,
Yeohwa, you're my wife.

Seokkop's mother is Dandan.
Is Seokkop... No!
This happened because you think the Jin clan's special.
What do you want to gain from this?
Do you want to be a hero that much?
I won't accept this.
Then, we...
I waited for you.
We must join forces with Wiryegung.
I recognize that Baekje isn't Eoraha's alone.
It's the country of nobility.
Give us your strength.
I don't want to see my family have a hard time.
It doesn't always have to be the Jin clan.
We must break off the marriage with Pasahu's daughter.
I lost my mother's ribbon.
- Here. - My lady...
Your hands will get dirty.
We need this technology in Yamatai.
If someone took it knowingly...
The only person who can save Soekkop is...
Who did you learn that from?
When should we set the date?
