Did you take a woman while conquering Mahan?
No.
Then, how is Soekkop your son?
Who is his mother?
Who is Soekkop's mother?
The Wiryegung ruler.
Her son died a long time ago.
You know what happened to him.
Dandan took him out of the palace with a soldier of the Hae clan.
They ran to Gongna and lived in secret. Hongran.
Why are you telling me this?
Accept Soekkop.
Take him in as a stepson.
I suffered a lot of pain because of him.
The thought of him was always a heavy burden in my heart.
As a father, I couldn't stop the death of my son.
Maybe I was burdened because everyone thought he was Sayu's son.
I thought he was dead, but he came back alive.
I'm sure it pains you.
Your precious prince thinks servants are his parents.
He lived an ignorant life.
I'm sure it really hurts you.
It must hurt more than when you thought he was dead.
You want to tell him he's your son and hold his hand.
You want to hug him and compensate for the past.
You want to make him a prince.
It cannot be known that he is the Wiryegung ruler's son.
I want you to be his mother.
I can't.
Even if your heart is ripped to pieces, endure it.
It's for the sake of Yeogeun and for the sake of Baekje.
Did you forget what Yeochan did?
Think about Yeogeun. He lived his whole life to be the next Eoraha.
I can't do that.
Hongran.
I know how difficult it is for you to accept this.
Do it for me, do it for the poor boy.
I'm begging you.
The royal family should flourish.
You can take 10, even 20 stepsons.
I will welcome them all as my sons.
But not Yeohwa's son.
I will not accept Soekkop.
Hongran.
I'm going to forget I heard this.
Bury your pain in your heart.
Hongran.
Did you know?
I know it's hard, but accepting Soekkop as a stepson would be good for Yeogeun.
I can't do that.
I can never do that.
Goto, Goguryeo (Baekje-Goguryeo border, today's Singye, Hwanghae-do)
We can't be taken as prisoners and ruin father's great plan.
Let's go.
You can't do that!
You have to go deeper in the woods.
That won't change anything.
We're trapped anyway
It is my duty to protect you.
Do as I say just once.
Sayu. Gotoseong Fortress, Goguryeo
-How did it go? -The chief minister is bringing Sa Gi.
What about Yeogu's son?
He's hiding in the woods.
Bu and Sou are surrounding the area, so they should capture him.
Bu might be wise, but he still lacks experience.
Go and help him.
I will.
I just wanted to catch a fish, but I'm getting a whale, too.
Yeogu, your son will be a captive of Goguryeo.
I'll see if you can still say you're the leader of the Ye people.
How is it going?
The soldiers are searching.
Yeogu's son must be taken alive.
He is an important key in conquering Baekje.
Yes, commander.
If your horse dies, get another one. Gomoriseong Fortress, Baekje
Eoraha must know what happened here before the sun rises.
Yes, sir.
Go to Mak Gohae with Mok Nageunja.
Yes, sir.
Where is the prince?
What are you doing here?
I want to go with you. I can't just sit around like this.
Just wait.
It's not your concern. It's the Pasahu's daughter's.
Prince, please be safe.
Soekkop, you have to return safely, too.
How will I face Eoraha is anything happened to either one of you?
Jwapyeong, daejanggun.
I received the message. Where is the prince?
He crossed the border.
You should have gone after him and brought him back.
A large Goguryeo army is waiting at Gotoseong.
Are you going to let them take the prince?
I'll take some soldiers and go.
Stop!
General Bu Gantae is right.
Nageunja!
If we cross the border with soldiers now, we will start a war.
You can't cross the border without Eoraha's approval.
Should we just let them take the prince?
Hanseong Palace, Baekje
Naebeopjwapyeong.
Is it true about the prince?
Let's talk in Namdang.
Let's go in.
What should we do?
Eoraha will decide whether to fight Goguryeo or give up on the prince.
What will happen to my daughter if Yeogeun dies?
Her marriage to him was decided when she was two. She waited all this time.
It might be good for us if he doesn't come back alive.
Jeong!
Father is right.
Eoraha and the Jin clan aren't meant to be together.
It would be more advantageous to wed Ai with Prince Yeogwang.
Eoraha is coming.
Let's go to Namdang.
Baekje is not ready for a battle against Goguryeo.
We might protect the fortresses, but it's impossible to attack Goguryeo.
The prince is going to be the next Eoraha.
We can't leave him in danger just because we're not ready.
The prince crossed the border near Gotoseong Fortress.
It is close to the border.
Sayu and commander Go Mu are there.
The chief minister and northern governor are there, too.
So?
Why aren't you more thoughtful like you always are?
That means they practically moved Gungnaeseong there.
It means Goguryeo is ready for battle.
Our soldiers are exhausted from the battle against Chimmidarye.
The Mahan men haven't been trained properly yet.
Goguryeo signed a non-aggression treaty with Yan.
How can we expect a victory against all of Goguryeo's soldiers?
I would like to say something.
Go ahead.
It is unfortunate what happened to the prince.
However, if Baekje soldiers cross the border,
we will lose the prince, our soldiers and ultimately, the Daebang land.
Eoraha, the prince is to marry my niece, Ai.
The Jin clan wants to save the prince.
However, it is impossible to battle against Goguryeo.
The Yeon clan won't be able to send soldiers this time.
The Guk clan lost many soldiers conquering Mahan.
Are you saying you won't send your soldiers?
We're just saying it's impossible to battle Goguryeo right now.
If you're going to fight Goguryeo, you will have to use the Central Army.
Soseono, please save Yeogeun.
Take my life instead and send Yeogeun home safely.
This is all Sa Gi's fault.
It's my fault for giving him a hard time.
Soseono, please take care of Yeogeun.
Your Highness, we have Eoraha.
He conquered the 54 Statelets of Mahan.
I'm sure he'll protect the prince.
Ai.
Your Highness!
What happened?
The Guk clan, Yeon clan, Jin clan and Wiryegung are against sending soldiers.
Yeogeun.
- Your Highness! - Mother.
Your Highness.
This is why the soldiers have to be divided into five units.
How can they not send soldiers to save the prince?
All soldiers have to be under your control.
We must contact Wi Birang. We need the soldiers of Liaoxi.
Will the prince survive with about 50 soldiers until the Liaoxi soldiers come?
Mok Nageunja and Mak Gohae are there.
Do you want them to die, too?
Yeogu.
This is all my fault.
I put the prince in danger because of an improper strategy.
It's because of his young blood.
It's not your fault.
Don't ever say that again.
Send a message to Gomori.
Tell them not to be rash and stay put at the border.
You can't leave the prince like that.
Eoraha.
Leave us.
Please save the prince.
Even if the nobility won't send their soldiers, you must save your son.
Baekje isn't ready to fight Goguryeo yet.
Eoraha.
If we lose the Daebang land, we'll lose Ungniha, too.
Even with the 54 Statelets of Mahan, we're not as powerful as Goguryeo.
We can't take Goguryeo without being prepared.
Are you saying you're alright with losing Yeogeun?
Don't think I'm not in as much pain as you are.
You're only in pain over Yeogeun, but I'm thinking of Soekkop, too.
Even if I lose both my sons, Baekje can't fight Goguryeo yet.
Goto, Goguryeo
What is the situation?
The Goguryeo soldiers surrounded us.
They're closing in.
There doesn't seem to be a way past them.
We tried.
We can't hide forever.
Let's show them the Baekje spirit.
We must fight with honor to the end.
There is one way left.
What is it?
Give me your armor.
When the sun sets, I will wear your armor and attack them.
Go that way and go to Gomoriseong.
You want me to flee using you and the soldiers as bait?
I won't do that.
Prince!
Kkop.
Your life is much more valuable than our lives.
You can't give up your life at will.
Your life belongs to Eoraha and Baekje.
I received great kindness in Hanseong.
I will have no regrets if I can fulfill my duty to protect your life.
Soekkop.
Take off his armor.
Yeogu doesn't have any other successors. Wiryegung, Hanseong
There are two princes from royal concubines, but they are babies.
If Yeogeun dies, there will be nobody to take his place.
That would be good for us.
If Yeogwang could be the successor...
If Yeogeun is killed in Goguryeo, Yeogwang could marry Jin Ai.
I'd like to Wanwoldang's face right now.
She has to lose her son to know how I felt to lose my husband.
We have to have aunt return.
See if she's better and bring her back.
Understood.
Jin Jeong's house, Hanseong
Send our soldiers.
You are a great commander who conquered Mahan.
Our soldiers have never lost a battle under your command.
This isn't a matter for your concern.
I know the Jin clan is in conflict with Eoraha.
But the Jin clan served King Chogo's line for a hundred years. We are a loyal family.
Why are you alienating the prince?
What do you know about politics?
This isn't about politics. It's about doing the right thing.
It's the right thing to do as a servant and as a fiancee of the prince.
If we tell you to marry Yeogeun, you will.
If we tell you to marry Yeogwang, you will.
Father.
That is the right thing to do as my daughter and as a member of the Jin clan.
Goto, Goguryeo.
Yeogu's son showed up.
Let's go.
Capture him alive, but kill him is it's necessary.
You must not kill him.
There will be many sacrifices if we try to capture him alive.
Uncle, if the prince dies, the king of Baekje will be in rage.
We have to battle against Baekje anyway.
We don't know any of their military strategies yet.
We can gain him a lot by taking the prince as prisoner.
I will surround the outer area in case they break through.
The northern governor and prince will drive Yeogu's son toward me.
Naebeopjwapyeong, can you give your life for the prince?
There isn't anything I couldn't give.
Go to Gomori.
There is no military support.
I only trust your strategies.
Join Mok Nageunja and Mak Gohae and save the prince.
I will do everything I can to save the prince.
Save Soekkop, too.
Did you say Soekkop?
If you can, save him, too.
Don't put the prince in danger trying to save Soekkop.
Yes, Eoraha.
Who's there?
It's the prince!
Let's go.
Prince!
Jwapyeong, daejanggun, general Bu Gantae.
I'm so glad you're alright.
Sa Gi put you in danger, too.
You should hurry back to Gomoriseong.
No!
I have to bring soldiers and return.
I have to save Soekkop and the soldiers.
That will be war.
We can't start a war without Eoraha's order.
What should we do?
Soekkop became bait to save me.
I can't leave them to die.
It's very unfortunate.
I wish I could go and attack.
Even if I go, we will be overwhelmed.
Take the prince back to the fortress.
Yes, sir.
Kkop.
Let go!
-Let's go, Prince. -Soekkop! Let go!
Kkop!
Prince.
Let go of me!
Let go!
Kkop!
He is not the prince of Baekje.
That can't be.
Send a message to the commander.
The prince of Baekje has gotten away.
Yes, sir!
Crown prince, are you alright?
Kill him.
He will just cause trouble for Goguryeo in the future.
He must be killed.
Archers!
Kill him.
Hanseong Palace, Baekje
Yeogu!
There is a message from Gomori.
Yeogeun has returned safely.
Have him return to the palace.
I will send a messenger right away and let Hongran know.
What about Soekkop?
There is no news of him,
only that he was the one who helped Yeogeun flee.
Yeogu's son was in Goguryeo. You let him go?
I'm sorry.
It's my fault.
It wasn't the crown prince's fault. It was mine.
Please punish me.
It is your fault.
Such a mistake must never be made again.
I will never forget this.
We have to find out Baekje's strategies through Sa Gi.
I would like to talk to him.
Yeogu was going to kill him.
He fled here show by an arrow.
Are you suspicious of him?
It's only natural to be suspicious.
You can accept him after interrogating him.
Why did you loosen the horseshoe on the Baekje king's horse?
Yeogu's arrow killed my father.
I was loyal to Yeogu for 15 years.
But he abandoned me.
I am in rage.
Why did you loosen the horseshoe on the Baekje king's horse?
Yeogu shot an arrow and killed my father.
What's the use of appointing him as a servant? He killed his servant.
Why did you loosen the horseshoe on the Baekje king's horse?
I already answered that over a thousand times.
Why did you loosen the horseshoe on the Baekje king's horse?
I...
The king of Goguryeo is no different from Yeogu.
I am sick of Yeogu's daughter.
I'd rather die than live with that wretch.
What about Yeogu?
He became Eoraha by the sacrifice of the nobility.
He stepped all over the old servants and wants a dictatorship of his power.
I am not a dog that is treated well so long as it's useful.
I am not Yeogu's dog!
Take him to a room and treat him.
Yes, crown prince.
Understand that this was necessary for the sake of Goguryeo.
The king will soothe your pain.
Do you know why Eoraha wanted to save Soekkop?
How should I know?
Are you sure?
Well... It's probably because he saved Eoraha's life in Gongna.
I'm curious, too, as to why Eoraha told you to save Soekkop.
You should sleep.
You have to take the prince back to Hanseong tomorrow.
I made steamed fish rice. We enjoy eating this in Yamatai.
Does it hurt you that much that Soekkop died?
It is the fate of servants to die for their masters.
His death was the result of my reckless decision to go after Sa Gi.
I sacrificed soldiers, too.
You are a good person.
No prince would hurt this much over the death of a servant.
I feel sorry for Soekkop, but I would have died if anything happened to you.
Prince, we have to return to the palace now.
Soekkop won't come no matter how long you wait for him.
Soekkop, wake up!
You can't die like this.
Junggunjang.
Soekkop is back.
Get the doctor now!
Hanseong Palace
I'm glad you returned safely.
Thank you.
She was really worried about you. Why are you so cold to her?
Bring Soekkop in and get the doctor.
Yes, prince.
You don't look very good.
You're right.
Your Highness.
You should have called for me.
It was something we couldn't talk about at Wanwoldang.
Please have a seat.
Is it about Soekkop?
How do you know?
Who is Soekkop?
He is...
Eoraha's son.
I see.
Who is his mother?
He is Yeohwa's son.
Your Highness.
The sun has risen already.
I didn't think you'd have a solution either.
This is a grave matter.
Could you kill Soekkop?
Mother.
He's a poor boy.
I feel sorry for him.
But there is nothing I wouldn't do for my son, the prince.
I could have had him killed if he didn't save Eoraha's life,
if he didn't save my son's life...
But I can't now.
Nampyeongyangseong Fortress, Goguryeo
Your Majesty, I am Sa Gi of Baekje.
You are not Sa Gi of Baekje, you are Sa Gi of Goguryeo.
I will give you a title, a house, land and servants.
You will do your best to help me kill Yeogu and attack Baekje.
I will give my life to help you kill Yeogu.
Wisagun junggunjang Soekkop put his life on the line to save the prince.
I am accepting the prince's request and giving him a title of a Wisagun general.
What does Namdang think?
He saved you in Gongna and he saved the prince.
His merits are extremely high.
The title of a Wisagun general is a well-deserved reward.
I agree, Eoraha.
Soekkop will step forward.
Junggunjang Soekkop is titled a Wisagun general and awarded a sword.
I am very grateful.
His merit doesn't deserve the title of a Wisagun general.
Forgive me for entering without approval.
What are you doing here?
Saving Eoraha and saving the prince is saving Baekje.
Giving him a title of a general isn't good enough.
How would you like to reward him?
I would like to make him my stepson.
Please allow it.
