A pretty little mouse...
living in the mountains?
A cute-looking boy.
You little boy.
I feel sorry to even catch him.
Then let him go. He's not a boy.
You're so harsh.
How can you twist a girl's arm?
- Girl? - Come on, Lee Tan.
The fight is with me.
Hey, what are you trying to do?
This is a girl?
So you're trying to show off?
That's how men are.
It's my duty toward a lady.
With one arrow? Do you think these guys are for decoration?
I only need to get one.
Don't get involved.
- Do you want to die, too? - I doubt it.
We're not that kind of relationship, are we?
Are you crazy?
Are you really...
trying to shoot?
I am.
Did he miss?
You punk! Not even close.
Are you out of your mind?
Why the fuss when you don't even know how to shoot properly?
Hey. Are you good at running?
Why do I hear something strange from the woods?
What?
What is this?
It's a wild boar!
It's a big one, right?
Lee Tan, the gold toad is mine.
You crazy jerk.
Let's go, now.
- Aren't you coming? - I need to get something first.
Those little...
Hey, get them! Go get them!
I'll lure them over to me. You should run away.
Run away by myself?
Are you kidding?
I'm not doing this because you're pretty.
I'm want to know what's inside, too.
Whatever the reason, I think both of us want that.
Let's meet at Kwangtong Bridge at 9:30pm.
Can you handle them yourself?
I mean, I hit you earlier.
Thanks to you...
you hit me so softly...
I think you were limping.
Not at all.
There's no way you'd be okay after getting hit by me.
That'll be better.
- Your upper body is more nimble. - Upper body?
Be there at 9:30pm. I don't want to be the only one there.
Hey!
My lord!
Got that? That's always your problem.
You don't know you're an idiot.
Prince Yeoning.
How dare you give me a nose bleed.
I'm the next king. How dare you!
His Highness is arriving!
Your Highness.
I heard there would be something worth seeing at the hunt.
You were right.
I have never seen this...
in my life.
I am sure they had their reasons, Your Majesty.
Your Highness.
- I can tell you the details. - No, no.
I know without hearing it. There's no need.
It's you again?
Okay.
It's always you.
(Episode 2: Your Name Is...)
He said...
that he would go live in the mountains...
if he could not succeed as a man.
What? He passed first on the exam?
His name was at the top of the list.
That was more shocking than the fact that my name wasn't there.
It was obvious that you failed. That's not surprising.
That doesn't mean you had to take down the notification.
He looked like a handsome idiot and reeked of alcohol.
His brush was a mess, too.
So he has everything?
He was good-looking, too.
He didn't just pass.
How do you pass first place on the exam?
Was he born from a poor lineage?
It's strange to see a skilled man like him to take exams for others.
It is not just strange. He seems very suspicious.
But Roh Tae Pyeong who substituted was gone.
I told you that was enough. Why do you keep bringing more?
Still,
I had nothing else to serve you.
This covers up to last month's rent.
I'll pay you the rest somehow if you give me more time.
The soup tastes fishy.
- What? - No wonder your business is bad.
Do you know the fish shop at the crossroad down there?
Tell them that Dal Moon sent you.
Then they will make sure you get good anchovies.
What? Then what about this?
How will you survive if you pay for everything I ask?
Will you just die?
This is for the noodles.
I'm sure he will show up if he passed first in the exam.
- What if he does not? - Then too bad.
Dal Moon.
Are you collecting money?
Do you see those two men in front of the noodle place?
Those two?
Find out who they are.
Yes.
The prime minister is here!
(Saheonbu: The prosecutor's office in Joseon)
Was it you?
Who dared to surround my house and lead that night inspection?
I had no choice because you interfered in my investigation.
Interfere in your investigation? When did I do that?
Prime Minister.
We're sorry to make you come this far.
How could you humiliate me like this?
Follow me first, sir.
The chief inspector is waiting for you.
- You can't do this. We must... - Shut it.
How dare you bring down the prime minister?
How dare an inspector step up against him like that?
Send him to the interrogation room in 30 minutes, please.
- How dare you still... - Hey, stop.
You should serve the prime minister first, sir.
(Department of Justice)
You must think we'll sweep it under the rug since you're a prince.
Making this big will only humiliate the royal family.
(Prince Yeoning Lee Geum)
And you're not bold enough to harm the royal family, either.
Since we understand each other's situation,
we should stop here.
What about the woman in disguise?
Who is that woman?
She disguised herself as a man and stole from Prince Milpoong.
We can let you go,
- but we must arrest that woman... - No.
It would be better not to do that. If she's caught and starts talking,
that will only humiliate the royal family.
What?
A hard-working man like you would not understand.
But if you fool around like me, there are times...
when you meet a turning point. How should I say this?
You become sick of women.
I am sorry, sir. But I do not understand.
I look...
not at women...
but at other things.
I'm still a member of the royal family.
So I shouldn't feel that toward men.
- Do you mean... - Yes.
I dressed her up as a man for personal reasons.
I thought I could calm down...
if I dressed her up as a man.
Oh, no.
Is my orientation making you uncomfortable?
Now that I see you again,
you look good in uniforms.
I like what I'm seeing.
Is this...
Prince Yeoning's answer?
He did that because he likes men?
That is correct, Your Majesty.
The loser.
He's such a loser.
Are you waiting for Prince Yeoning, my lord?
(Prince Yeonryeong, Lee Hwon)
Minister of Personnel.
I understand. You must be worried.
Prince Yeoning was close to you,
(Min Jin Heon, Minister of Personnel Disciples)
but he humiliated Prince Milpoong.
It has consequences.
You were uttering ridiculous lies first!
How dare you say Prince Yeonryeong was trying to harm Prince Milpoong...
by using Prince Yeoning?
Please lower your voice.
We are inside the palace.
Do not use today's incident as an excuse for political dispute.
And you should not be so rude to Prince Yeoning.
My brother is not someone you can be rude to.
Prince Yeonryeong, you are always too kind...
to your brother.
I always see that disappointing.
Your disappointment...
is not important to me, either.
It is difficult for us to work together...
since we cannot agree on anything like this.
I must say...
that a king cannot work alone.
Lee Geum.
They say I had flaws ever since I was born,
but you were wrongly blamed...
because of me.
It wasn't your fault.
Don't worry about it.
You should blame others sometimes.
That's politics.
You have no skills.
The minister of personnel, Min Jin Heon.
I think it's better if you side with him.
- Lee Geum. - Lee Hwon.
Politics is about numbers.
- The side with more people... - That's impious.
We have a Crown Prince.
You know he'll be replaced.
If you lose the fight, the only thing that'll await you...
is death.
Even so,
I can't consent to the Patriarchs who are ignoring the throne,
pursuing a one-party tyranny.
Right.
That's the kind of person you are.
Lee Tan's Death Records.
You've heard of it, haven't you? They say he's killing people.
How did you know that?
I might...
be able to get his weak spot.
- What? - It might be useful if I die.
What a lunatic.
Does this even make sense?
Does this make sense?
- What? Darn it! - What kind of nonsense is this?
Why does a grown man dry flowers?
Why was he carrying this so carefully?
I heard Prince Milpoong went crazy.
It must be true.
I went through all that for this?
You idiot. You idiot.
You might hurt your head.
Be careful.
I'm sorry, sir.
- I took the wrong thing. - No.
The Death Record wasn't there in the first place.
If you couldn't find it, that must be the case.
Gosh, seriously.
I'm making a fool out of myself.
Right? And we're in an emergency situation.
It's absurd that I have to listen to a favor.
What favor?
Can you find me someone?
You have free time, don't you?
What are you saying? All of a sudden.
There's someone Master Moon Soo is looking for urgently.
He was seen substituting at the state exam.
Why would Master Moon Soo look for him?
He's that nosy, don't you know?
I'm tired of it, too.
What?
Are you sure it's him?
He said his name was...
Roh Tae Pyeong or something.
Roh Tae Pyeong?
The Roh Tae Pyeong who lives in Majangnae?
You know him?
Did Master Moon Soo tell you already?
Where's Master Moon Soo?
Where is he right now?
Is it you again?
It's always you.
You're really outside looking okay.
I see that you're here.
You're trustworthy despite being a thief.
Promises are made to be kept.
Flowers?
- Flowers? - I'm not trying to fool you.
- Believe it or not, it's really... - Wait.
This is perfectly possible.
He's such an unpredictable madman.
You must know him really well.
You must've been disappointed.
Nothing much was in here.
Life fails you sometimes.
Anyway,
what's your name?
What do you do?
You managed to get out safely from that disturbance.
You must be pretty high up.
You want to exchange names?
It's time you got curious about such a handsome man.
But I refuse.
I won't ask who you are.
I'm a peasant, not a thief.
- I'm a damo at Saheonbu. - A damo?
And you're probably...
Prince Yeoning?
You're the second son of His Highness, aren't you?
I see that you're a bold little girl.
I've no more business with you. Let's go home.
[Kocowa Ver] SBS E03 'Haechi' "Your Name Is..." -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Wait!
Where are you going, 52-year-old Roh Tae Pyeong?
I finally caught the little rat.
Good job, Yeo Ji.
Thanks, you're a real man.
You're unusually late.
Everyone is waiting.
Prince Milpoong...
dances when he's complimented like a child.
Don't be too hard on him.
You insinuate with your smiles and your words.
Do you speak like that to the prime minister, too?
Of course not.
I'm just...
being frank with you since you know my relationship to Prince Milpoong.
I'll keep...
the prime minister under control.
You handle Prince Milpoong.
You brought him this far when he was living like an animal.
Thank you for taking care...
of the prime minister.
But there won't be a place...
for a prostitute next to the king.
(Prostitute: derogatory expression for gisaeng)
(Prince Milpoong Lee Tan, Disciples)
I'm going to kill Prince Yeoning.
He must be crazy.
I will kill him!
What are you doing to my house?
If you're going to do this, break your own stuff.
Hey, why don't you stop him?
It's your house. Why don't you...
Darn it.
Goryeo celadon!
Oh, no.
My lord.
Lord.
Prince Yeoning was set free.
Can't you even take care of such a thing?
It's the royal court's business.
Covering it up is the right way to go.
The right way?
He insulted me.
What were you doing?
What use is all this stuff here?
Just wait.
When I become king,
Prince Yeonryeong won't be the only one to die.
I'm going to wipe out all the useless ones.
Minister.
I'll say a word to Prince Milpoong.
Stay outside, please.
Okay.
Do you know how the present king ruled?
With the pretext of restoring order,
(Restoring order: purging all opposition)
the king replaced loyal subjects every year.
To strengthen the throne,
he wiped out the gentry,
the foundation...
of this country.
Such a king must not come to power again.
He doesn't qualify to be king.
And never...
look down on the Disciples again.
Hey, let's do it verbally.
Boasting your strength looks unlearned.
You little...
Hey, everyone knows I'm unlearned.
And everyone will know that you're now screwed.
Take it easy. And refrain from bad language.
What are you talking about?
I'm holding my fist with my virtuous character.
How do you know Roh Tae Pyeong who lives in Majangnae?
Why did you substitute for him?
(Substituting: taking an exam for someone else)
Roh Tae Pyeong? Substituting?
I'm pretty smart...
but I have no idea what you're saying.
I knew it.
So you're going to act stupid?
You idiot. I saw you at the exam with my own eyes.
You mustn't do this. Take it easy.
Wait a second.
This isn't going to work.
You have to beat him if necessary to make him confess.
Roh Tae Pyeong is the uncle of Yoon Yeo Ok who died last month.
She was...
raped by Prince Milpoong...
whom you know well, my lord.
The lady raped by Prince Milpoong?
What did you just call him?
Yoon Yeo Ok eventually killed herself.
The Saheonbu...
sees this as a murder case instigated by Prince Milpoong.
Yeo Ji, don't you hear me?
What did you just...
So answer me, my lord.
- My lord? - How do you know Roh Tae Pyeong?
Where is the person who disappeared, my lord?
- It can't be. - Yes.
- I'm a lord. - Really?
So you should know.
People like you won't dare touch a prince.
A prince?
So even if what she says is true,
it'll be covered up easily.
The royal court is very good at such things.
So if you understood,
I wish you'd leave.
I will generously forgive...
tonight's indecency.
He can get away with it because he's a prince?
This darn country.
Is that fop...
really a prince?
He's Prince Yeoning,
the king's second son.
Hey.
Why are you telling me that now? You should've told me earlier.
That's why I told you...
not to curse and be easy on him.
My gosh,
are you dumb? You should've been more precise.
You should've told me not to act out since he's a prince.
I'm sure he knows something.
Why is he trying to dig up Prince Milpoong's secret?
Goodness.
My life was already doomed,
but it's completely over now.
I didn't even get to pass the test yet,
but my road to success just went out the window.
Roh Tae Pyeong is the uncle of Yoon Yeo Ok who died last month.
And Yoon Yeo Ok was raped...
by Prince Milpoong, the man you know so well.
Yes.
The puzzles are finally falling into place.
Prince Milpoong was...
trying to keep Roh Tae Pyeong from talking.
But then, what happened to him?
He suddenly disappeared when he passed the exam.
Why?
You heard the rumors too, right?
Lee Tan's Death Records.
(Death Record: A document that keeps record of the dead)
You know. People say dead bodies keep piling up...
around Prince Milpoong.
It seem you're taking your...
medicine more often these days.
And I see you gloating inside.
That so-called king...
is finally going to die.
That is not true, Your Majesty.
Do you think Prince Milpoong...
is suitable to become king despite his bad temper?
Kings are also humans.
It's natural for a king to have some flaws.
To me, it sounds like...
you're saying you don't care who becomes king...
even if it's a troublemaker, as long as the Disciples win.
A good man doesn't always make a good king.
You didn't have bad intentions either when you killed those people.
Those deaths were inevitable...
- in order to bring order. - It could also have been...
your way of retaliation against your subjects.
I'm sure Prince Milpoong...
will govern wisely if we advise him properly.
So you're really...
going to support Prince Milpoong?
I am also aware of the rumors...
about Lee Tan's Death Records.
I heard Prince Milpoong...
is going around killing people.
Nothing's been confirmed.
With what evidence are you saying such a thing?
You darn idiot.
How dare you let him pass the test?
What if Roh Tae Pyeong takes that place?
I was just...
I mean, you told me to score high so I was just...
That was what I said back then.
Things have changed now.
Don't you know how to be flexible?
You're...
going to have to make sure...
the guy who took the test keeps his mouth shut.
I want you to kill him...
and bring his body to me by tonight.
Do you understand?
Darn it! It won't come off!
How filthy!
A lot of people are interested in who passed the exam.
If Roh Tae Pyeong doesn't show up,
things might get serious.
- Do you think I don't know that? - Pardon?
Why didn't you do anything back then, you punk?
You should've stopped me when I tried to kill him.
I'm sorry.
Roh Tae Pyeong, that scumbag.
I let him pass the state exam.
Why did he make me angry by asking me for money and ruin things?
Gosh.
The Minister of Personnel told me not to get into any more trouble.
What should I do?
This is disgusting!
He didn't show up...
at the ceremony?
No, he didn't.
I heard it caused quite a fuss because no one knew his whereabouts.
I knew it.
May I ask what's going on, sir?
You're not trying to do anything dangerous, are you?
I'll explain to you next time.
But more importantly, I need to...
My goodness. Are you going somewhere, my lord?
Your house really is amazing.
I guess you really are of royal blood.
(Episode 4 will air shortly.)
Then Prince Yeoning was the one Moon Soo mentioned...
about substituting the exam?
Yes.
And Roh Tae Pyeong is the uncle of the dead Yoon Yeo Ok.
Why did I miss that?
I remember hearing Roh Tae Pyeong's name from the previous case.
He didn't seem important. That's why I did not report him.
But...
Roh Tae Pyeong is gone again.
For sure,
Prince Yeoning is the key clue.
But it's hard to investigate on Prince Yeoning only with that.
We can't investigate on the royals with no hard evidence.
That's why...
Master Moon Soo is acting on by himself.
What?
Moon Soo?
I wouldn't have gone through the mess...
if I knew that you were the prince in the first place.
If it's about yesterday, you don't have to apologize.
I won't make fuss over it.
Excuse me?
Why would I apologize? I'm not the one who committed a crime.
What?
I should especially make a fuss over you, Prince.
Until when do you plan to follow me?
When the truth gets revealed and justice flows like a river.
You could spend your time more wisely.
What do you mean?
My life has never been this worthwhile.
Think about it.
Regular people would have been imprisoned for that.
While some people get away from it.
Life shouldn't be this unfair.
You are the stubborn one.
That's the reality.
Maybe that is how it works for high-ranked people like you, Prince.
But that's not the way I live.
Those who sinned should be punished accordingly.
Whoever it is.
You are stupid, stubborn...
and dangerous.
You are quite intriguing.
But I don't agree with you.
Because you will now learn that...
inequality is the true logic of life.
Prince!
If you wish to follow me, you may.
Giddy up!
Hey! Prince!
Give me a horse! Now!
You should pay first.
Here it is!
That's the only one you can afford.
A donkey?
I'll take him! Quick!
Prince Milpoong ordered to kill me?
How would he know that you're the one substituted for the exam?
He just thinks that it's just one nameless bastard.
How about Roh Tae Pyeong?
I heard he is missing.
Did Prince Milpoong kill him, too?
Stop asking questions!
I don't wish to know more!
Just stay away for a while.
I'll look for a ship ticket for you today.
Stay away?
Until everything subsides?
I'll take care of this...
by handing over the dead body of a beggar.
So please, do as I say.
Just until this gets over.
Over...
Will it be over?
This is it...
for today!
Get back home!
Off you go!
Dismissed for today!
You're the best story teller in Hanyang!
Goodbye, everyone!
Are you done for today?
Come back tomorrow morning.
I will tell an interesting story about...
a young gisaeng and new magistrate.
If you're to tell about gisaeng, my story will be better.
Pardon?
Pure love, decadence, and illicit love.
All those in one story.
Anyways.
I do have a fascinating story to tell.
Would you like to hear?
Did you pass it to him?
Yes, as you told me.
The story might have scared him. He dropped his jaw.
A woman...
gave you this?
Yes, sir.
I've never seen her before from the market.
I guess we should not.
If we talk about such story...
No.
Tell the story as it's written.
The whole story.
Without leaving any details.
I'll sneak you out of the capital if you get into trouble. Don't worry.
Tell this story at the market, well side, wash place...
and port.
Make people talk about this story as much as you can.
Yes, my lord.
The rumor spreads...
when a young widow bears a child.
Then the prince killed the woman...
and closed the case!
And there's more!
What a pity!
She had an uncle...
and he's the one who passed the exam first place.
Here it is!
And he also got killed.
That's why he's gone missing.
Did Prince Milpoong really do that?
So the rumor about killing people was true.
How can that kind of person become the next king?
What do you think?
Isn't it scary?
Killing not only the widow but her uncle, too!
Minister of Personnel! Did you hear that?
The capital is in an uproar!
Tell Prince Milpoong to come in.
Right now!
Submit a report...
after a thorough investigation.
- Don't miss anything out. - Yes, Your Majesty.
And tell Prince Yeoning...
to enter the palace tonight.
Pardon?
You mean, Prince Yeoning? Not Prince Yeonryeong?
Yes.
I meant Geum. Prince Yeoning.
What! What are you doing here?
I was just passing by. Because of this.
Even a dog wags his tail before the meal.
I should say a word of appreciation, at least.
I'll use this for the leisure.
How can one call this a prince?
You are the shame to the royals.
Nonsense.
The other prince has become more popular recently.
I'm talking about you.
Did you hear the rumors spreading around the capital?
That's you. Right?
What are you talking about?
Did you take good care of the dead body?
Be careful, Tan.
If the dead body is found,
you'll be sitting on the execution place...
not on the king's throne.
Stop bluffing.
What are you?
How dare you act like this while all others shivers in front of me!
I've got nothing to lose.
And you...
are not scary at all.
If I become the king,
the first thing I will do is to tear you apart.
Oh, I'm so scared.
I'll look forward to that.
You bastard!
Wait! This hurts!
You coward!
Not only in the market...
the rumor has spread all over the capital.
It's very similar to the story of Prince Milpoong.
There's more.
They say the missing Roh Tae Pyeong is already dead.
Looks like the story got spread by the storyteller from the market.
But he already left the capital.
Was Roh Tae Pyeong also killed?
If it's the Prince Milpoong we know, it is possible.
Then...
we have to find the dead body.
Then we can bring him down.
Father!
Have some snacks.
Please hand it to me, madam.
How could you tell your people to work on their day off?
Help yourself. We will continue tomorrow.
- Yes, sir. - Okay, sir.
No.
We should finish the task.
We have things to do, Yeo Ji.
Did Roh Tae Pyeong really die?
If Prince Milpoong ordered the murder...
how did they dispose the body?
In the river? Mountain?
Or did they burn it?
Or chopped into small pieces?
How can you say such thing in front of this little child?
Sister, the flower!
Oh my! What should I do?
Oh my god!
You should have told me earlier, Joon Jae.
She really values this exquisite flower that only grows from Hadong.
I'll die if this dies. What should I do?
A flower that only grows in Hadong?
He hung him on this maple tree.
This tree only grows here.
The color was real...
spooky red that day.
Prince Milpoong, that crazy man.
These were the trophy for himself.
That's why he kept it.
This leaf is not dry yet.
Then maybe...
Hurry.
We have no time.
You surprised me!
Were you looking for this?
- You... - Shh!
I'm good at imitating animal's cry.
Sounds perfectly same, right?
How did you get here?
You told me to follow if I could.
I'm really the competitive one.
Then,
seems like I won this time. So tell me.
What were you doing?
Why are you chasing after them?
If you wish to know, keep following.
Then maybe,
you'll see what you have been looking for.
What?
That man...
Hurry up.
We should be done before the sunrise.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
What are they doing?
Why would they dig in the middle of night?
I think they're moving the dead body.
Dead...
Roh...
You mean, Roh Tae Pyeong?
Can you move away a bit? And tone down your voice, too.
I mean...
you're talking about Roh Tae Pyeong?
Are you insane?
Why are you blowing air in my ear?
You told me to speak silently.
You're really a weird man.
What?
What is that?
Someone is coming this way!
Hide, everyone! Hurry!
Kill! Kill her!
Yeo Ji!
- Are you okay? - Lord Moon Soo?
He struck the target in this dark?
Retreat!
Retreat! Hurry!
You bastards!
Where are you going?
Stop there!
[Kocowa Ver] SBS E04 'Haechi' "Welcome Back, Prince Yeoning!" -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-
Are you okay?
Here...
I lost them.
It's so dark. I couldn't follow them further.
Roh Tae Pyeong?
Roh Tae Pyeong...
Ja Dong!
- Ja Dong! - Lord Lim.
What made you come back so late.
Chief royal secretary.
Why are you...
Welcome, sir.
The body of Roh Tae Pyeong was found.
Notice Lord Min Jin Heon right away!
It's the time for me to see...
how useful you can be,
Inspector Wi.
With your late return...
I assume you've been drinking again.
You must know where you're standing.
I didn't expect you to...
summon me.
Especially to this Bogyeong palace, Your Majesty.
Did I hurt your feelings...
for calling you to the palace where your mother used to live?
Please forgive me, Your Majesty.
You did not cry.
When royal physician and your mother...
turned pale when you did not cry...
on the day you were born in this Bogyeong palace...
I thought...
it'd be better for you...
to die like that.
Not even born from a princess.
How can a lowly prince born from a peasant...
live up to one's life.
Who would willingly call you...
a prince.
What do you expect me to say?
Please forgive me for not dying on that day?
Are you happy?
For destroying yourself as I ridiculed you?
Are you content with your life?
You could have lived differently.
Although half of the blood is from low-born,
you could have lived up to your life.
Why did you live that way?
Is this the only way you can live your life?
It's because I was clever.
Why do I live like this?
You're right.
This is the only way of life I could live up to.
I knew I won't become anything even if I try to.
So I've decided to become a lout, at least.
Yes.
That was you, Prince Yeoning.
You were so bright and clever.
That...
hurt me more.
Every time I saw a gift of a king in you.
(Gift of King: a talent to become a King)
Why do you say that...
If it is because of my arrogant joke...
I...
will die soon,
Prince Yeoning.
Before that happens...
can't you show the world...
the you that I know of?
Could you be a bit more prudent...
and show the world...
your respectable...
and honorable sides?
Your Majesty...
That...
hurt me more.
Every time I saw a gift of a king in you.
I...
will die soon, Prince Yeoning.
Father...
Is that true?
You became Inspection Leader?
That's right.
I will be officially appointed tomorrow.
Congratulations.
It'll be a lot of support to us.
Of course it will.
By the way, how is the investigation going on?
Can you prove the correlation of Roh Tae Pyeong's death...
to Prince Milpoong?
My lord...
Can you do that?
If you can testify that you substituted the exam...
by Prince Milpoong's instigation, I'll be able to bring him down.
If I can't...
If I say I won't, what would you do?
Did you not...
chase after Prince Milpoong...
because you knew all about his crimes?
That person might become the next king.
That's none of my business.
You're so naive.
Why would I do that? That will only aggravate my sin.
Then why...
Did I step in?
Because it's fun.
I just wanted to fool Milpoong.
Let's go.
My Lord!
Please come out!
How could you do this?
Why are you giving up like this?
Let's not bother.
We can do it on our own. Let's go.
I thought you are a man.
You're all on the same side.
People stick up for their own kind.
That is enough to make a dog laugh.
Han Jeong Seok, what kind of person is he?
As far as I know, he's a brave inspector.
He's against the senior officials though he's a Patriarch.
Even so, he belongs to Saheonbu, the Patriarchs dominated it.
He's not getting anywhere.
There's one more person.
Who?
The lowly and powerless prince?
You...
really are just a naive idealist.
That's why I hope...
you don't step any further.
I don't want you to become an idealist like me.
What do you mean I'm fired?
Why is Wi Byeong Joo taking over that position?
How come?
My Lord.
Come in.
You can go now.
My Lord.
Are you trying to disobey me?
Do you really want me to punish you?
Minster of Personnel recommended you.
He might want you to persuade Han Jeong Seok.
He's not that gullible.
Let's just face him.
Face him?
I'll hold a council...
for Milpoong, my Lord.
Hold what?
A council?
Are you nuts?
Are you trying to take him down?
The other way around.
I'm trying to take down Inspector Han.
He won't be able to bring this up again.
Even senior officials will come...
to discuss Milpoong's case.
Inspector Wi must have done this for us.
But I'm not sure if this is helpful.
If we don't prove him guilty,
you're the one who has to suffer.
No.
We still have to give it a try.
You didn't drink at all.
Didn't you want to get drunk?
What should I get drunk on, drinks or dreams?
I haven't decided yet.
Here.
You have to make up your mind.
And have fun.
Like we used to.
Can't you be a more prudent...
and show the world...
your respectable and honorable side?
Milpoong has been threatened by Roh Tae Pyeong,
the uncle of the dead woman.
That is a plausible reason to murder Roh Tae Pyeong.
Do you have any proof that Milpoong has been threatened?
Milpoong said he doesn't even know the man.
Milpoong abetted someone to...
take the exam for Roh Tae Pyeong.
That man is the witness of this case.
Witness?
There's a witness?
Who is that?
How could you ask me that?
Inspectors must not reveal who the witness is.
And no one...
should force inspectors to reveal who the witness is.
That's the rule of Saheonbu.
Who made you the administrator?
Are you trying to teach me?
That's enough!
Stop defending Prince Milpoong!
You really didn't know?
You all knew about this.
Milpoong is the culprit!
The world once called...
Saheonbu inspectors Haechi.
That means people believed that...
Saheonbu would just good and evil, regardless of the rank.
Now look at us.
Everyone's concealing the truth...
for their own good.
An aristocrat murdered an innocent man.
People still...
trusts us when these things happen.
Desperately hoping...
we're still on their side.
Hoping Saheonbu...
does what it should do.
Don't dishonor Saheonbu!
You're just plotting against Prince Milpoong.
My Lord.
If not...
bring that witness to me.
Then I'll take down Milpoong as you wish.
Where's this witness anyways?
Answer me!
Bring that witness to me.
We don't need to hear this.
This is false accusation if you don't reveal who the witness is.
Inspector Han deserves to be punished.
Well...
Too bad.
That witness...
is here.
(Haechi)
What if there are two witnesses?
That's why we should arrest Milpoong...
to reveal the true fact about the case.
You crazy bastards!
Go for it, my Lord.
Don't worry about me!
So you want to manipulate the Court?
Do you want to know how we kept on winning?
Stop!
My Lord...
My Lord!
- We have to make people fear. - He can't be...
Show them what will happen if they resist.
Beat them with fear so that they don't rise again.
I would give you my everything if I can catch him.
Please send me in exile, Your Majesty.
