(Queen and I)
What?
Darn it.
He's despicable.
How could he do that?
How could he disappear without any notice?
What?
"Choi Hee Jin."
What? Is this a letter?
What is it about?
Darn it.
What?
(Choi Hee Jin)
(Central, South)
Darn it.
Central something.
South something.
Three something.
Something.
Is he trying to confirm how stupid I am?
He should've used modern writing if he was writing to me.
He doesn't even have the basic courtesy.
What?
Wait.
What's this?
Am I riding well?
Not bad since you have only practiced for two hours.
You're still young after all.
You finally woke up.
You're going to fall down!
Are you okay?
Darn it.
Where did you get the bicycle?
I borrowed it from the owner.
You were sleeping and I was bored, so I tried riding it.
I prefer to wake up late in the morning.
I thought you left a letter to flee again.
- Letter? - What's this?
You're still here, but you wrote me a letter.
That's not a letter. It's your home address.
I'm worried that I'd forget, so I jotted it down.
32, Namchang-dong, Jung District, Number 302 of Urim Apartment.
I see.
Can't you read your own address?
You're more ignorant than I imagined.
It's the first time you're riding a bicycle.
Stop gloating.
You're the only man who doesn't know how to ride a bicycle at this age.
Don't you feel hungry?
I almost starved myself to death waiting for you to wake up.
Why didn't you wake me up?
What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you.
Where are you going?
Wait a minute. Let me wash my face.
I can go by myself.
I have to go anyway since you don't have money.
Money?
I have so many notes, I don't know where to keep them.
Goodness. Did you sell something again?
It was tough the first time, but not the second.
It's indeed a sword from King Tae Jo of Joseon.
It is.
My ancestor got it from King Tae Jo.
I see.
Surprisingly, such an ancient sword...
is really well preserved.
My family took care of it well.
- How much can I get for this? - Well...
No matter how well preserved it is, there's a limit to the price.
Are you kidding me?
I got better at negotiating this time around,
so I asked for more.
I guess I can do better on my third time.
I wanted to buy you a car,
but since you already have one, I guess you don't need another.
Forget it.
I don't have the courage to own a car...
that will go missing overnight.
It's your thought that counts.
I don't know where to buy delicious food.
Let me know.
Then...
You can buy milk, juice...
No. Hold on.
Darn it.
Ridiculous. Who are you to laugh at me?
You just need to buy the things listed here from the supermarket.
You don't have to read since you won't understand.
There's a language called English.
It's much trendier than the Chinese characters.
Stop staring at it.
Show it to the worker and they'll get you all the stuff.
I'll go now.
It really worries me to send someone...
who doesn't know English to go on an errand.
Ride carefully.
Don't fall down.
Is this written by a foreigner?
No, it's not.
It's by a person who is trying to prove herself at the wrong time.
One orange juice.
What is this?
I think it's curry.
It's spelled wrongly.
It's supposed to be spelled as "curry",
but it's spelled as "carre" here.
As long as you can understand it.
Something average will do.
Three minutes.
Three minutes to go, Choi Hee Jin.
Three minutes to go before our friendship ends forever.
If you don't want to regret it for the rest of your life,
call me right now.
Right now.
Right now!
That was quick.
Where are you?
Do you want to die in my hands?
Darn it, you woman!
Sorry for the late call.
Where is Dong Min? Has he gone back quietly?
Gone back quietly?
What the...
Hey, where are you going?
Your...
Did you think he would leave quietly?
How dare you ask this question, you stinky fish soup!
I'm sorry.
I couldn't lie in his face.
I feel guilty.
I said I'm sorry. I really am.
He accused that I knew you were having another affair,
yet I covered it up with the excuse of mental illness.
Why did he accuse me of something I didn't do?
What on earth have I done?
My goodness.
Where are you?
Paju?
Did you...
stay overnight with that diehard fan of yours?
I told you he isn't a die-hard fan.
What do you plan to do?
You promised that you'd support me if he really exists.
- What? - You saw him in real life, right?
Even if I get cursed by everyone,
I need your support, understand?
What nonsense are you talking about? What is this?
Talk to you later. See you.
Hey! Hello?
She's making up stories.
When did I promise to support you?
Did I? When...
I would rather you cheated on him.
If you cheated on him with a man called Kim Boong Do,
I might try to understand you.
If the man really did exist,
I wouldn't have said those things.
I would definitely support you if you had someone you like.
Wait.
I did.
Gosh.
Why did I say so?
Goodness.
Darn it.
I'm not sure if I bought the right things.
Show it to me.
Come.
Milk.
Juice.
Curry.
Was it curry you wanted?
Yes, curry.
So you really wanted curry.
I don't know the language,
so I was worried if I took the wrong thing.
You were scared because you don't know English, right?
I wanted curry. Good job.
Okay. Sit down, let me cook for you.
You'll pass out from happiness after tasting it.
It's supposed to be an annual affair which I only do on birthdays,
but I specially made it for you today.
You may think that it's not hard to prepare...
since it doesn't take a long time to prepare.
But it's actually a difficult dish made using the latest technology.
(Today's dish: Curry rice)
Firstly, open the package.
(Firstly, open the package.)
It's important to open the package according to the line.
See? It's written here.
You must open it according to the line.
A slight mistake will ruin the whole dish.
Then pour the curry...
on the rice.
Like this,
pour it out evenly.
Then, wrap it up with cling film.
Most housewives don't have the guts to do this.
Okay, the last and also the toughest step.
Put it into the microwave for three minutes.
(Lastly, put it into the microwave for three minutes.)
It can neither be two minutes and fifty seconds...
nor three minutes and ten seconds.
It must be exactly three minutes.
Cook it for exactly three minutes to get a perfect dish.
It's spinning.
The king of all dishes...
curry rice is done.
Gosh, I'm exhausted.
You don't have to thank me. Just eat it happily.
Gosh.
Even if I'm totally ignorant of the present world,
you shouldn't have bluffed me like this.
What? Are you accusing me of bluffing?
I've been here for a few months.
How dare you...
Let's eat.
By the way, where did you go during midnight?
What?
I saw you dressed neatly, standing by the door.
Right? What did you do?
Were you dreaming?
But I wasn't dreaming.
Didn't you go somewhere else at midnight?
I don't mind eating this happily,
but what taste is this?
We are running out of time. Come back in five minutes.
Are you done with showing off your relationship?
You were pretty excited at the award ceremony.
Hey.
Buy me some drinks after work.
Buy what?
I'm speechless.
Don't make me buy you drinks when you've got a girlfriend.
Are you trying to create scandals?
Don't get me into trouble.
I'm not going home straight from work, do you get me?
Dong Min, you didn't get to eat last night, did you?
Sorry for holding you up.
It's fine.
However, Director...
I've got a great idea.
Do you think we should poison Queen In Hyun to death?
I bet it'll become a hot issue.
I didn't make him say that, Director.
Don't misunderstand.
Yes. It's my idea.
What do you think?
Why should we kill Queen In Hyun?
Because I'm getting sick of her.
I don't want to see her again.
If you kill your wife just because you're sick of her,
you're not a king, you're a psycho.
If that's the case, then King Suk Jong was a psycho.
He killed Lady Jang because he loathed her.
Since we'll have to kill either of them,
let's kill Queen In Hyun to make it fresh.
People prefer new ideas these days, Director.
Director!
Darn it.
It's such a good idea but he didn't bother to listen.
I need to talk to the writer.
Did you two fight?
What?
Really?
Both of you were so cheesy at the ceremony.
It hasn't even been a day yet.
You must be successful.
Darn it.
Hey. Why are you throwing a tantrum here?
They can hear you from the outside.
Darn it.
I can't continue shooting with the current mood.
Get someone else to do it.
- Hey, brat. - Darn it.
I said I can't do it.
You missed out something.
You didn't buy coffee. It was on the list.
I did that on purpose.
Why? I always have a cup of coffee after meals.
Let's have it outside...
as a celebration for learning how to ride a bike.
Are we going there by bicycle?
I find the scenery along the way quite a view.
You're still a beginner.
How can you ask a lady to ride with you?
Don't push it.
I put in the effort to learn just to fetch that lady.
Come on.
But you have to be responsible for yourself if you fall down.
How can you be so irresponsible?
Hold on tight.
You're quick in learning.
I acknowledge that.
Didn't I tell you that it's my only advantage?
I think you can survive here.
You might be successful too.
Are you interested in teaching?
How about being a Chinese character teacher?
Or a riding instructor since you're good at riding horses?
No, that's not it.
You'll be just fine even if you don't work.
After all, you can get as much money as you wish.
You'll have enough money to live just by selling your treasures.
My goodness.
I'm so envious of your life.
Is that so?
Don't you think...
it's more interesting to live here?
Be honest. Right?
Who knows?
Goodness.
As an official over there, you have to live in constant fear.
The king might kill you anytime.
Even if you've become a first-rank official,
medicine over there is less developed, so you'll die faster.
What is so great about that? Don't you think?
Well, you're right.
Right.
The talisman is still with me.
If I threw the talisman into the fire,
you' would have to stay here forever.
Should I?
What do you think?
Is that an implied consent?
I'll throw it into the fire. I mean it.
What did you do?
Didn't I tell you that I would do it?
You're scared.
Goodness.
You must have been scared...
that you can't return anymore.
You know that I can be troublesome.
I may burn it, so you better take it with you.
(Assistant Jeon Yeong Il)
What's wrong?
Wait a minute.
Hello, Choi Hee Jin speaking. What's the matter?
I called you because I couldn't reach Soo Kyung.
I just got through her.
I see But what's the matter?
What?
The shooting schedule has changed.
Can you come over for shooting tonight?
I think I can make it if necessary.
But why?
Dong Min has been admitted into the hospital.
Hospital?
Why? Is he not feeling well?
Have you heard about it?
Have you heard about the consequences of your conduct?
Did he really get admitted because of gastrospasm?
Because I made him too stressed?
No.
I think it's totally fake.
Why? He should talk to me instead.
Why must he mess up the schedule?
I heard that he told the director at the site...
to poison you to death in the drama...
because he doesn't want to see you again.
What?
That's the main point.
If Dong Min continues being difficult...
because he is upset for getting dumped,
we don't know what will he do from now on.
What should we do?
I think the director sensed that something was wrong.
He asked me to meet up with him.
I'm going to meet him soon.
Then I should go visit him in the hospital.
Where is he now?
What should we do now? I can't go for coffee anymore.
Is that guy sick?
You heard?
I think he is just pretending.
Do you really have to go?
Regardless if it's fake or not, I still have to visit him...
because I'm the cause of it.
He didn't look so weak.
How do you know?
Are you being jealous because I'm going to visit him?
That's impossible.
You're being jealous. I know it.
Do you worry...
that I'll reconcile with him?
Stop being jealous.
Be by yourself for a while.
(Queen and I)
I heard...
that he has gone to deal with some matters.
The servants are unsure for how long he will be gone.
It's impossible that he went there.
Where is Kim Boong Do's hometown?
Isn't it Cheongpung in Chungcheong Province?
If it's Cheongpung,
he'll have to leave home for at least five days to complete his lie.
That means he won't appear in Hanyang in the coming five days.
Queen In Hyun went to Lady Bok's yesterday, right?
Yes. That's right.
We have to find a time when Queen In Hyun is not in.
We must also...
prevent Kim Boong Do from going into the palace.
Even the God is on our side.
Good timing.
Get some witnesses from Kim Boong Do's hometown.
Yes.
Gather some public members as per my instruction.
- Yes. - The more the better.
We'll go to Lady Bok's house tonight.
Do you still remember the female entertainer?
She brought a little girl to the temple.
I was thinking if we should kill her.
- What should I do? - Ignore her.
Isn't she the lady that HIs Excellency really cares about?
His Excellency will deal with her when everything comes to an end.
My goodness. What else?
You should know better.
To be frank, he was not admitted because he was sick.
I'm admitted because I'm sick. I'm in pain.
Who are you talking nonsense to?
Wait a minute.
She wants to pay you a visit.
- I refuse to meet anyone. - It's Ms. Hee Jin.
What should we do?
She is downstairs. Should I ask her to go home?
Ask her to come up.
I'll warn you first.
Don't make a scene in the hospital.
Argue after you are discharged from the hospital. Got it?
Hello, Ms. Hee Jin.
You may come up now.
It's Room 1503.
Yes.
Who is it?
Dong Min, it's me.
Come in.
You scared me.
I heard that your condition is not too severe.
After contemplating,
I realized that I'm agitated because of your lie about the leakage.
Come in.
Not only once, you lied to me twice.
Lovers share the same fate.
You won't feel wronged for bearing this for him, right?
I don't feel wronged,
but don't you think that this is childish?
Don't you know that I'm childish?
You should've thought about it when you cheated on me.
- Well... - By the way,
I almost forgot.
That's right.
He threw a pillow at me.
Do you want to be locked up in a toilet?
To know how it feels?
Right.
Come over here.
Let's go.
You can complain to that jerk later.
Tell him it was me.
Is he a gangster? He is good at fighting.
Wait a minute. Let's talk it through.
I'm here to talk to you. Don't do this to me.
What can we talk about? I don't need to talk it through.
I have witnessed it myself. What else is there to talk?
Let me explain. I'm here to explain.
I had neither cheated on you nor lied to you.
I'm here to explain how all these happened.
Are you saying that all these happened without cheating?
For how long do you plan to fool me around?
You are seriously...
Dong Min, the director is here.
Hey.
What are the both of you doing?
Director.
What's on your face? Is that water?
Well, it's...
It's not.
I'm sweating.
Why don't you wipe your face?
Director, please have a seat.
Why are you standing?
Go lie down.
Come, lie down.
Well...
Director, do you want some drinks?
Let's have some water.
How do you feel? You look fine.
No, I'm not fine.
Director.
I'm being serious.
I will not shoot with Queen In Hyun from now on.
Cancel all the filming.
I can't devote my feelings...
to Queen In Hyun who has cheated on me.
Look at that temptress.
How do you expect me to act like I love her?
Gosh, I can't do that.
Hey.
He just got an injection.
- He is drowsy, so... - Let go of me.
I can't work with an artist who has a chaotic private life.
I mean it, Director.
It's either Queen In Hyun dies from poison...
or she gets beheaded.
Or she is kept at home until she dies.
Figure it out...
or I can't continue the shoot.
Enough, you brat.
How can you talk to the director like that?
Mr. Dong Min.
You look innocent, but you cheated on me.
You're such a hypocrite, the queen of scandals.
How can a person like her play the role of Queen In Hyun?
The real Queen In Hyun would cry out her lungs if she knew.
I'm so speechless.
Well...
Please ask everyone to leave.
I'm sorry, Director.
Anyway, I don't know who is at fault...
and I don't have to know.
Before we manage to persuade him,
we will have to shoot separately.
I'm so sorry.
I knew that he would throw tantrums one day,
but I didn't expect it to be something like this.
Director, let's go.
See you at the site.
We'll discuss about it then.
- Sure. - All right.
Darn it.
He must be waiting for me.
Hello.
Yes. The man in Room 201?
What?
Where did he go?
I don't know.
He isn't in his room.
I see. All right.
What?
Did he go out or did he return?
That's right.
He went somewhere during midnight.
It's not a dream.
I'll throw it into the fire. I mean it.
What did you do?
Didn't I tell you that I would do it?
You're scared.
Don't tell me...
he keeps going back and forth...
because he has another woman in that era.
He admitted he was a player.
Do you know what a player means?
What does it mean, my lord?
- This is called a player. - Stop it.
Stop it.
That's ridiculous.
That is so not him.
But who knows what kind of person he is?
Darn it. I can't pay him a visit over there.
Are you here because of the official?
I was afraid that you would be worried about his safety,
even though I sent you a letter.
I have seen him alive and well in person.
What?
The official was here during midnight.
During midnight?
Monk.
Why are you here?
I'm sorry for making you worried yesterday.
I have received your letter.
I'm glad to hear that you're safe.
But why are you here at this hour?
I couldn't sleep.
I thought you might be awake as well.
I think he became more troubled after he found the talisman.
Troubled?
What happened to him?
It looks like he wants to go back to the new world.
Hello, where are you?
I'm at the park. Are you done?
Park?
I'm nearby.
You were not in the apartment, so I got worried.
What did you do?
- I was sightseeing in Seoul. - Sightseeing?
I was busy every time I came.
I didn't get to stroll around.
That's why I went around this time.
Gosh.
Sightseeing around Seoul?
What a good life.
I didn't know, so I was worried.
Did anything happen?
What?
I was thinking you might get bullied by him.
I won't get bullied easily. Don't you know who I am?
As far as I know, you're the easiest person to bully in the world.
You should have come with me if you were really worried.
Didn't you promise to be responsible?
Your friend would be further agitated if I tagged along.
That's like a cat worrying about the safety of a rat.
Gosh.
Didn't you say that you'd be responsible? What are you doing?
You didn't do anything.
I've thought it through.
We really don't have a choice.
We can only wait for him to calm down.
What kind of answer is this?
I'm speechless.
Are you kidding?
Are you in the car?
Don't try to change to topic. I'm really speechless right now.
Open the right drawer.
The right drawer?
My goodness. Why is it here?
I forgot to tell you after I kept it there.
Gosh. Wait a minute.
My goodness.
Why did you give me money?
What do you want me to do with it?
Stop copying those rich men in the comics.
You didn't even take responsibility of the things you have.
Can you...
spend the money for me?
What?
I've had enough with using a public telephone.
I don't want to wear another person's clothes.
We can't always hide in the countryside...
whenever I want to see you.
I want to move...
to a place nearby yours.
Of course,
I'll need a cell phone...
and a few clothes.
Is the money enough?
It's sufficient, but...
I said I would be responsible, but I realized...
my presence has messed up your life.
Neither becoming your boyfriend...
or buying you a luxury car...
or spraying water on that person...
can make up to it.
If I am to be responsible,
I think I'll have to stay by your side.
What do you think?
This is the conclusion I got after careful thinking.
(Queen and I)
It's a...
It's a very accurate conclusion.
Really?
I'm good at judging people.
What are you worried about?
I have gone...
through a lot...
without thinking much lately,
in order to keep myself alive and to save Queen In Hyun.
Now that everything is solved...
and I have regained my memories, I realize...
What do you realize?
The current place that I live in...
has become a past to me.
Will I...
still be able to live here like I used to?
(Gwanghwamun)
I learned about the progression of the history accidentally.
Now, I have to live according to the established track.
Do I really have to obey that fate?
Can I still live happily...
after getting to know about the future?
(King Se Jong, King Seong Jong, King Seon Jo, King Tae Jo)
(Center of Florence and Italy)
It's funny...
that the future has become the present to me.
Therefore,
I'm wondering whether that future...
is the place where I should live out my life.
I'm confused.
Even if that's the case,
how can he think like that?
I'm not sure,
but I think he has met someone he likes there.
I can understand how you feel.
But can you find happiness...
living in an era where no one remembers you?
A human...
suffers the most when he is lonely.
Yes.
You're right.
But...
even if there is only one person who can remember me,
my life would be different.
So...
does he really plan to leave?
It isn't something that he can decide so easily.
Somehow, his heart is already there.
Is it true?
Yes, I have confirmed it.
Die to live, live to die.
As long as Kim Boong Do possesses the talisman...
that saves him from danger,
we won't be able to kill him.
But since the talisman only works on Kim Boong Do,
there is no point for us...
to snatch the talisman.
Is it?
What should we do, Your Excellency?
He has seen me and he will take action in no time.
If you don't give me any orders,
I can't do anything before leaving.
Anyway, we have got to destroy the talisman.
If you give me the order,
I will risk my life...
and break into Kim Boong Do's house...
to steal the talisman...
- and kill him. - No.
There is no need.
One must die to live...
and one must live to die are interconnected.
Pardon?
He can alter the situation with the talisman.
At the same time,
the talisman can also end it.
It's Florence.
Have you been to Florence?
No.
I thought it looked amazing the moment I saw it.
I'd love to pay a visit there.
You don't know English yet you're thinking about traveling abroad.
Looks like I have to be your translator.
Give me a month...
and I bet my English will be better than yours.
Goodness. You're overconfident.
I've learned English for many years.
I still think that I will do better.
Why are you so confident?
How do you spell "curry"?
Curry?
C, A, R, R, E.
I knew it.
It's correct.
What?
It was a fateful encounter.
A strange encounter which sprouted from the gap of time.
The cause and effect of a fateful encounter.
We will know the ending soon.
Mr. Player calls Ms. Prettiest Girl on Earth.
Hello, Mr. Player. How are you?
Your Majesty, how can you cheat on the king?
You're the best.
We will re-investigate all the cases...
that happened in April.
We'll behead Kim Boong Do and display him to the public.
Assassins!
We must arrest him before he escapes the town.
It will be easier to recognize him with a facial composite.
Okay.
"Die to live, live to die".
It's interconnected.
It makes sense, right?
The current place that I live in has become a past to me.
To steal the talisman and kill him.
The talisman can also end it.
Are you saying that all these happened without cheating?
For how long do you plan to fool me around?
It looks like he wants to go back to the new world.
Even if there is only one person who can remember me,
my life would be different.
Firstly, open the package.
It's important to open the package according to the line.

You must open it according to the line.
A slight mistake will ruin the whole dish.
Then pour the curry...
on top of the rice.
Like this,
pour it out evenly.
Then, wrap it up with cling film.
That means he won't appear in Hanyang.
Queen In Hyun went to Lady Bok's yesterday, right?
Yes. That's right.
We have...
