Please forgive...
...my rudeness all the while.
Your Majesty.
How...
...did you know...
I just guessed.
And I just earned my conviction.
It is definitely him.
Black smith, Moonseok of family Kim.
Why is he here?
Not many gates in the capital...
...opens and shuts making this heavy sound.
This is the four gates of capital that leads to the palace.
This smell is...
Why does it so stink?
I'm at the palace.
The loan for smithy that Kim Soo's family took,
someone paid back instead. The person actually paid double.
I wonder what happened to them overnight...
...that they could get that much money.
A dragon hair pin made of gold and jade that only queen allows to wear...
His Highness, the late crown prince passed away due to the chronic illness.
And the new king suddenly appeared...
...after two days of Kim Soo's wedding.
And...
...the king now who suddenly became...
...a king.
Kim Soo who disappeared.
Finally, everything makes sense.
It wasn't easy this time, even for me.
You're indeed the best matchmaker in Hanyang, sir.
Please speak informally, Your Majesty.
How can I speak informally to you, sir?
Please get up.
Isn't it very odd, Your Majesty?
When you were a black smith,
that outfit fitted quite nicely.
And now you look like you've worn someone else's clothes.
So...
...please forgive my rudeness all this time.
Okay.
By the way,
how's Gaedong...
Where is my Gaedong right now?
I went to my house and she wasn't there.
I'm sure you know where she is now, right?
Your Majesty.
Gaedong is...
...with me.
Few days ago, assassins came to your private home,
so I had no choice but to bring her over.
Assassins?
Did she get hurt?
She is fine.
But I can't guarantee she'll be fine next time.
She can't even identify the assassins...
...and if she finds out the husband she almost got married to, is a king,
how can she be fine?
So...
...just think she's dead...
...and forget about her.
I have my responsibility for accepting the marriage thoughtlessly.
So I'll take responsibility...
...and find a proper husband and make Gaedong get married.
Sir, why are you doing this suddenly?
You promised we'd become a man and wife.
What do you want me to do?
What can you do, Your Majesty?
You went through all this trouble just to meet me secretly.
That's the position you're in right now.
What are you going to do with Gaedong?
Are you going to make her as a concubine?
What do you mean concubine?
What do you take me for?
I only have one woman and that is Gaedong.
You know that very well, sir!
Our relation should be ended here.
Since you've already sat on the throne,
please be a sage king.
I'll bring her here.
I'll keep her by my side.
How so, Your Majesty?
I'll acquire the power.
The power that no one can harm,
even if I keep Gaedong next to me.
So...
...please protect Gaedong until then, behalf of me.
How can you trust me...
...and leave her in my hands?
I'm not sure about anyone else.
But if it's you,
I can leave her with you.
Kim Soo...
Can't believe he became a king.
It'd be better if he was a jerk who ran away with the money.
Stone head, what are you doing here?
Where did you go?
I just...
...went for a night walk...
You should have told me!
Were you worried?
Of course, I was worried!
You just disappeared out of blue.
Like my brother and like Soo,
I was you afraid you might be disappeared.
I...
...won't go anywhere.
Where would I go, when this is my home?
So...
...get off of me now,
stone head.
I just did it out of gladness without myself knowing.
Gaedong.
Yes?
I wish he really has ran away.
I wish...
...he just ran away to eat well and live well by himself!
If that's what happened,
I can just get over him...
...and move on.
Bean sprout soup sounds nice.
It's your turn to cook for a breakfast tomorrow.
Bean sprout soup will be nice for a hangover.
You think making it is easy?
Hey you, matchmaker!
Have you looked for me?
I heard that you had your tough time...
...showing Seoyoon around Hanyang all day long.
Just bear until her marriage is settled.
I'm not having a tough time at all.
I was getting quite bored.
I'm glad I have a friend to talk now.
You're still the same how you don't change...
...your expression while saying things you don't even mean.
It's all because...
...I have a great master who's sitting in front of me.
I guess I can give you a bigger task to handle.
Soon, an order to select the queen will be given.
I'm planning to recommend you as the candidate for king's bride.
Chunsim.
-Bring one informant to me. -Okay.
There's an informant who collect every rumors in Wolhyang pleasure house.
I'll bring him to you, My Lady.
You have this beautiful lady close to you.
Why did you plan to choose others?
How dare you showing this wench who does laundry...
...in the pleasure house, to my precious son?
I received a marriage offer from the second state councilor.
Mother.
Who do you think she did the laundry for?
She did it to help me focus on study.
She helped you focus on study?
I am the one who raised you alone as a seamstress...
...and help you won the first place on the exam.
I just want a proper bride for you!
Can you still not understand why I'm doing this?
Mother,
just for this once...
Just for this once, please listen to what I say.
If that's what you want...
Do come in.
From now on, I'll let that matchmaker...
...handle my son's marriage.
-Who? -Just stay still.
Who was that matchmaker just now?
She's April.
She's the queen of matchmaking who gets busy...
...without having time to sleep during April.
Hey, hey!
Get in line!
Well, she used to be once.
After big sis appeared, she became the disaster of April.
-Why is that? -Because big sis rejected...
...all the matches that April chose as a match made in heaven.
Anyway, we hardly got this opportunity.
But now it's handed over to April. What are you going to do now, Big sis?
Who says I handed over to her?
So what is this all about, Big sis?
Preventing the cause of disaster.
If you don't want your house to be on fire, either break the chimney...
...or cut down all the trees.
Oh, gosh.
That man always make it hard to understand.
So what are you suggesting?
Are you saying we should nip in the bud?
So we'll...
...handle Lady Kang's marriage first, not Scholar Lee's.
That's right.
If the second state councilor finds another candidate for husband,
it'll be impossible to become in-laws, no matter how much Lady Lee wants to.
I knew you're not going to let April handle everything.
To do so, we should find out what kind of person Lady Kang is.
From her upbringing, personality, taste...
-That'll be bit hard. -Oh my gosh!
I've sent few folks to gather information.
But it'll take some time, since she came from Jeonju.
And scholar Lee's mother is preparing to send a letter for the marriage.
If the letter gets to the second state councilor first,
it'll be the end of this marriage.
Bring the most decent courtesan in the pleasure house.
I have to check even if I make her disguise as a noble lady.
I think Gaedong can act as a noble lady.
Your attitude is good for a noble lady.
And your face is pretty too.
I think everyone will be fooled as long as she keeps her mouth shut.
Sometimes, you overestimate Gaedong.
Go bring a courtesan quickly.
Don't you know courtesans and noble ladies hate each other?
If you really want it,
I'll do it then.
Oh, dear. Don't do this.
You fell for it that time, Matchmaker Youngsoo.
Wow! You look just like an angel, My Lady!
You even called me an angel.
Just because you wear a skirt, that doesn't make you a noble lady.
I agree with you.
Do you know how monstrous she is? I oppose!
How long are you going to look down on me?
I'm an official matchmaker!
So trust me this one time.
I'm confident I won't get caught again.
You decide, Big sis. Do you agree with her or not?
If she finds out the husband she almost got married to, is a king,
how can she be fine?
So just think she's dead...
...and forget about her.
Then I'll die.
Remember Lord Kim's daughter whom we worked with few years ago?
These are what she wore before she got married.
By the way,
what are you going to do about her status?
Where are we going to find the noble status out of nowhere?
Let me take care of that.
(Yoon Sooyeon)
(Special note : Deceased)
May I...
...borrow your name, My Lady?
The biggest problem is right over there.
What did you trust about her that you agreed?
Stop right there.
Would you like some, sir?
Put that down, get up and follow me.
God, you shouldn't bother me when I'm having my meal.
-Let me finish my meal! -Yes, just let her eat.
A loaf of bread is better than the praise.
"The song of many birds."
It's "A loaf of bread is better than the song of many birds".
It's faster to credit the heaven and earth than making her...
-...as a noble lady in two days. -"Create the heaven and earth"...
Never mind...
It's not "Credit the heave and earth"?
Are these my clothes?
I'll go change if it fits me.
Are you sure you can do it properly?
What's so hard about it?
You need to learn countless things.
But if you learn few things properly, you can fool them for a little while.
You'll have tea party, so I'll teach you how to drink tea.
Watch me and do as I do exactly.
Lift your cup with your right hand...
...and hold up your saucer with your left palm.
How can you play a noble lady like this?
Sit over here.
Hold your teacup again.
Like this?
Lift your cup with your right hand...
...and hold up your saucer with your left palm.
Like this?
Yes.
And you drink your tea...
...slowly in 2 or 3 sips.
If a lady asks you, "Shall we have some tea?",
you should say, "Yes, we shall".
Try to say it.
Shall we have some tea?
Yes, we shall.
You got a problem with it?
Say it gently with a smile.
You mean like this?
I mean like this.
God.
Why is it so hard?
I can't even speak properly.
Don't speak too much.
All you need to say is, "Yes, we shall".
Yes, we shall.
When you need to reject,
you should say, "No, I appreciate it, but I'd rather not".
No, I appreciate it, but I'd rather not.
You have to smile even when you're rejecting!
What's there to appreciate when you are rejecting?
"No, I appreciate it, but I'd rather not."
No...
I appreciate it, but I'd rather not.
You shouldn't walk splay-footed and need to walk straight.
And make sure your skirt doesn't flap.
You can neither step on this line nor away from this line.
Straighten your back.
Look up straight.
Look up straight...
Turn around.
What is this?
This way will make you as a noble lady.
I see.
Sir.
Did you perhaps...
What about them?
Nothing. You don't have to know.
Why are you practicing so hard?
Did someone say you'll get awarded if you do well?
No other bride...
...should cry.
You promised we'd become a man and wife.
I'll bring her here.
I'll keep her by my side.
Gaedong.
Why don't you become the real noble lady, while you're at it?
I can make you a noble lady.
God, are you asking me to do this again?
I'll decline.
Even if you get to live in a luxury?
Then how can I find my brother?
And Soo?
If I become another person, how can I meet those two?
I kept my name even when I was being chased, so they could find me.
My brother said he'll come and get me.
He said he'll come no matter what.
So I'll live as "Gaedong" like now.
Yes, you're Gaedong indeed.
How can you be a noble lady?
Oh, my. Oh, my.
You had your meal and clean with these hands?
These aren't finger nails of a lady, gosh!
I guess you went through a lot.
You shouldn't be ashamed of these hands.
They show that you worked diligently.
How is it? Doesn't it smell good?
You should smell good to go somewhere nice.
Thank you.
Come out.
Youngsoo, you underestimated your skill.
I just realized I am much greater person than I thought.
If we succeed this case,
I'll get my bonus twice more than the wage.
Do I look weird?
You don't look so bad.
God, you're so sassy.
Turn around for us.
They even have their own rules, when it comes to sitting.
Usually the second state councilor's daughter, Lady Kang will...
...take the seat of honor.
And they'll take their seat by their ranks.
So you have to sit at the very end.
What kind of rule is that?
The place where I flop down first, becomes my seat.
Thank you for coming to our tea party.
Then may I serve the tea?
-Yes, please. -Yes, please.
Bring out the tea.
I thought of serving sejak tea at first,
but I changed my mind because the lotus flower smelled so good.
Why are you telling this now?
Because I just heard so I'm telling you now.
I only taught her how to drink hot tea.
My hands are hurting,
so can anyone pour the tea behalf of me?
I think we have someone new.
What do you say we offer Lady Yoon to pour the tea?
Could you please help me?
You mean me, My Lady?
Before you pour the tea,
you have to cool off first to make the fragrance better.
Why are you...
...cooling off the cold tea?
From the tea party I used to have, I do this to make the fragrance better.
Please enjoy.
One sip,
two sips.
Drink while I'm enjoying it.
The tea is well balanced.
When you're talking about the taste of tea,
you should say, "The tea is well balanced". It works every time.
What's so balanced about it?
It means how well balanced are the look, scent and taste of tea.
The fragrance is much better with your way, My Lady.
I learned a new thing.
(Instructions for women)
It just passed an hour.
I didn't say anything.
Seems like you comes here more often than the pleasure house.
This place is more interesting than the pleasure house these days.
Look at you. You look like...
...a anxious parent who sent your child to the school alone.
What do you mean a parent?
It's just because someone asked me for a favor.
Look.
What does it mean...
...when a man who was promised to get married, asks to take care of his...
...woman to other man.
Which crazy bastard asks other man to take care of his woman?
Is there a woman you like?
I'm talking about my client!
The annals of flower crew, chapter 6,
"You should never disclose the information about client..."
"...that you obtained through business, to a third party."
I can't tell you because it's our principle.
I didn't know I was fell under a third party.
Well, anyway,
the intention of the man who asked is either one of these two.
One is the man whom he asked is very reliable.
Or...
...there's no possibility that his woman will fall for him.
Unless they're brothers by blood, it's unlikely to be the former.
So it means that the man has no charm as a man at all,
therefore he entrusted with an easy mind.
It seems he didn't mean that way.
No way. It's just same as asking a dog to take care of a cat.
Even if they're left alone together,
nothing happens between them.
Mother.
I know you wouldn't like this.
I know you'd asked me why is it still in my hand,
when you asked me to give it to someone I love.
But...
...I think I'll need a bit of time...
...to hand this over to that person.
Your Majesty!
Your Majesty.
The commander of royal guard will...
...be sent to Kyungsang province as a provincial army commander!
-Your Majesty! -Your Majesty!
We'll take care of His Majesty well, so don't worry about him...
...and go.
Even if you leave now, you'll have to rush to reach Ulsan.
-Eunuch Jang. -Yes, Your Majesty.
Please...
...adjust my attire.
You haven't forgotten...
...what I told you, right?
Please...
...don't get hurt...
...and come back safely,
Commander.
I'll be back, Your Majesty.
Come back safely, Father.
Even if he was born as a king of all beasts,
a tiger without teeth...
...is just nothing, but a big cat.
I'm sure something is in here, since she had it so preciously.
(The couple of general office)
Her real love was right here.
What are you doing?
Nothing, My Lady.
Isn't that...
...Seoyoon's book?
Give it to me. I should check it.
No, I appreciate it, but I'd rather not.
You appreciate it, but you'd rather not?
Yes, it's fine, My Lady.
So please don't mind it and go on your way.
Give that to me!
Are you alright, My Lady?
How dare you. Do you know how much is this?
Remember.
Don't ever cause a trouble.
-He said I shouldn't cause a trouble. -I'm sorry!
Move aside.
Will My Ladyship take responsibility for this?
Yes, I'll take responsibility.
Please wait for a while.
-Wow! -Wow!
Isn't it clean without any stain?
Just because you did that,
it doesn't erase her fault.
Hey, why are you getting mad on such a fine day?
It doesn't have any stain and it looks new!
She's right. It really does look new.
Everyone makes a mistake.
Please forgive her generously just for this once.
-Please forgive her. -Please forgive her.
My Ladyship will forgive you.
You're very lucky.
Thank you, My Lady. Thank you!
You have such a beautiful heart.
Isn't this amazing?
-Yes, it is. -It's fascinating.
The grand councilor's power is getting stronger everyday!
He's kicked out the commander of royal guard.
Now, it became his world!
So we need a new man, don't you think so?
How about Lord Yoon Dongseok?
Lord Yoon Dongseok...
It's been a while since I heard that name.
But he's been confining himself at home after he resigned number of years ago.
No body knows where he is and what he is doing.
Hence we should find him.
Move! What the heck is this?
-What the... -What are you doing?
What the heck are you?
Hey, can't you see the seat is taken?
Old man like you should know the basic manner!
Move over there!
Let me sleep!
Who are you to ignore me?
-Do you want to get kicked out? -God.
Who do you think I am?
I am the owner of this house, you rascal!
So shut your mouth up and just sleep quietly!
God, move, move! Gosh!
-Move you all! -Gosh...
Gosh, I'm tired.
Isn't she so cool?
Unlike the girls in capital, she's not picky and is freewheeling.
She's not freewheeling.
She just don't have any dignity.
Isn't that the daengi we saw the other time?
You know the daengi that handsome Young Master was choosing.
Thank you for coming today. Get home safely.
My Lady, you look great with red daengi.
He was giving it to that kind of girl?
-Let's go. -Okay.
Hello, sir!
I brought this.
Your Majesty...
No matter how hard I try to find, I can't find the hair pin.
It's one and only keepsake from my mother.
I have to find it at any costs.
I think when the servants took the laundry,
they took it along with the laundry.
-I will go check. -I should go.
Your Majesty...
Who cleaned my bedchamber today?
Have you...
...came for this, Your Majesty?
How did you...
I found it when I was organizing.
It looks valuable, so I kept it separately.
Thank you.
It must be very precious.
It's a hair pin that I'll give to someone precious.
One day,
I'll give this to her with my own hands.
Now, it's your turn!
People say you guys are the best in Hanyang,
so let me see how skillful you are.
I think it'll be fun.
Let's do this.
Hey you, don't get scared after seeing it.
You'll die if you live like that!
You mean me?
Yes, I'm talking to you.
The man that your parents chose will ruin your family.
Oh, my.
He'll exterminate the whole family...
...and will wipe out his descendants.
Your marriage will soon be your funeral!
Is that true?
Oh, dear! What should I do then?
Well.
You should try to avoid the harm.
Pray day and night at the holy tree with painstaking care.
If so, the spirit will...
...send a nobleman who can rebuild your family's fortune from south east side.
Take this!
You might get doused with water.
Get doused with water?
Go now.
Oh, thank you...
You're not just pretty,
but you're good at acting too.
You're making me blush, My Lord.
-Good work. -Thank you.
-Samwol, let's go see those flowers. -Yes, My Lady.
Maybe it's really going to rain.
I beg of you.
I beg of you for my dear husband.
I beg of you...
For my dear husband.
I beg of you. I beg of you.
I guess you have a dearest wish.
Pardon?
Pray day and night at the holy tree with painstaking care.
If so, the spirit will...
...send a nobleman who can rebuild your family's fortune from south east side.
(The couple of general office)
The matchmakers called Flower Crew...
...dealt with Lady Seoyoon's marriage.
Flower crew...
Oh, dear...
Grand Councilor,
I got a blow by your son.
Is this not it?
The groom side...
...requested to prepare the letter...
...to Lady Choi.
Big sis!
What the... What are you doing?
Now, can we have some meat?
Sure, sure.
Get off of me!
This is the hideout of that rogue.
I thought he went somewhere far, but he's still hiding inside the capital.
Few days ago, owner of paper shop saw him while shopping for the supplies.
Thank you.
You sure you don't have to tell this to her?
There were some men who tried to kill Gaedong.
There's no guarantee they won't be from the same gang.
For now, I'll check it first.
You are...
His Majesty let a woman in his bedchamber?
Yes, Your Grace.
He didn't kick out the court lady from his bedchamber.
You see, I was right.
Who else can he rely on other than a woman in this palace?
Gosh, His Majesty...
If he wants to trail me, he should've sent out a proper one.
What kind of warrior is this sloppy?
Tell your master I can't handle that marriage!
It's me! Gaedong!
Gaedong?
Why did you come...
Did you get blackmailed because you rejected a marriage?
Why did you come here?
Because it's my business! Why did you exclude me?
It's dangerous. Go back.
I'll go, even if it is!
We're on the same side.
I thought we are family.
I thought Kim Soo was your family?
Of course, my Soo is my family.
And Flower Crew is my family too.
My Soo my foot...
It must be nice to have many family members!
Anyway, since we're a team, we should stick together for good or bad.
So don't think of leaving me behind.
Curfew!
It's the curfew bell. The guards will be here soon.
If you don't wish to spend your night at the jail, then follow me.
Thank you for returning back the hair pin,
but you should leave.
I already have a woman in my heart.
Even now and in the future,
I won't be able to give what you want.
What should I do first?
I have a father who's working at the school.
So I learned how to read naturally,
since I was young.
I'm sure,
I can be of help to Your Majesty.
I will...
...be your company at night.
Do you not like...
...even that?
What did you say your name is?
It's Saeah, Your Majesty.
Saeah...
Okay, Saeah.
Thank you.
I think I got a good company at night.
The grand councilor will...
...kick you out soon, Commander?
Then we should stop him.
Just abandon me, instead.
-Pardon? -Reassure them.
You need to make them believe you're alone.
To do that,
you need to abandon me.
Come over here.
Why did you frighten them when they're sleeping just fine?
Since you're a woman, you should sleep there.
Don't tell me you're scared.
It's called consideration!
Don't you dare whine your back hurts later.
The mouse wasn't the problem.
Hey. Hey, you.
What kind of sleeping habit...
(Flower Crew)
Let's go meet the real con artist.
If you want to live, then tell me who's backing you up now.
Where is he?
Don't you find something strange about that lady?
Seeing you came all the way here,
I guess it's your turn to talk to me.
I don't want to do it. I won't do it!
What if everyone becomes unfortunate because of me?
Since you have my fortune, nothing will happen.
I want you to report every specific things about His Majesty.
You should forget about that blacksmith.
You should just say, if you no longer want find him.
He is...
