ANIMALS WERE FILMED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PRODUCTION GUIDELINES.
All right.
Three, two, one, go.
Cut. Stop!
What did I do wrong?
Let's start over.
Walk naturally.
Okay.
There you go! Just walk like that.
Just like that.
Oh, okay.
Just like now.
Go.
I said to walk like you did just now.
Walk naturally.
But I feel that I walked exactly as I just did.
No way.
I finally found your weakness.
Okay, watch carefully.
First, look far away.
Then walk naturally.
Pose.
And turn.
Is that too hard?
I will try again.
Go.
Pose.
My apologies.
It's okay.
We all need to start somewhere.
And we also
have time.
How are you so good at this when you are not even a model?
Well, I've done a lot of observing.
Look, Yoon-bok.
A model is nothing without confidence.
Walk with your head held high.
First, walk.
Strike a sexy pose and a confident pose.
Then, turn.
Master!
Master.
-Goodness. Who's that? -Isn't that Young Master?
-Are you all right, Master? -Wait.
You guys must be so happy.
You're the woman from the video, right?
Yes.
So you really must be dating Young Master!
What a good-looking couple.
Goodness, so when are you getting married?
Excuse me?
Don't be so nosy.
They'll let us know when it's time.
Isn't that right, Young Master?
You might as well get married early and not drag things out.
Since you're an only son,
I'm sure Lord Shin must expect to see grandchildren soon.
Marriage? Grandchildren?
Run away, Ha-ram and Ha-yun!
Goodness.
I'm going to catch you!
Goodness.
You kids are good at this.
Once Young Master takes over as the head of the village,
you'll become the lady of the Woorim family.
Don't forget about us when you do!
You should be fine now that your ankle has been iced.
Thank you.
Thank you for your help.
Gosh, don't mention it.
But my sikhye is so warm now.
That's no problem since it's chilly anyway.
-You're right. -Let's go now.
-Come on. -Let's go.
-Oh my, something smells sweet.
Goodness me.
-Sweet indeed. -What are you on about? Let's go already.
EPISODE 14 CAN WE STAY TOGETHER?
I can walk.
You must not overexert yourself just in case.
What do I do once Yoon-bok takes over as the village head?
My dream is to be in Paris.
If I end up going,
what will happen to us?
Is something troubling you?
What?
Well,
it's just...
Why don't we sit for a bit, Yoon-bok?
Okay.
-Master. -Yoon-bok.
Please go first.
Well...
Can I ask
what your plans are for the future?
-My plans? -Yes.
I'm curious about your plans for next year and the years to come.
Well,
I am not sure what I will do.
But whatever I do, I will stay by your side.
Even if I must travel
halfway across the world.
Really?
A nobleman must value his principles as he does his life.
The moment I gave you my heart,
I gave you my time as well.
It is only right I go with you wherever that may be.
Yoon-bok.
WOORIM
The keychain Jun-ho had
was in Father's possession
until he passed away.
Why did Jun-ho have it?
Come out, Lee Jun-ho.
You're being transferred to jail.
Could I make a phone call?
No.
-Just one call. -I said, no.
Lee Jun-ho!
Jun-ho.
Do you have anything to say to me?
I have nothing to say to you, Detective.
MINISTRY OF JUSTICE
I'm sorry.
Damn it!
Let's place the seating over there so the audience can easily see
the fashion, architecture, and landscape.
Make sure the stage equipment is hidden from view.
Oh, right.
Tell the entire staff to take extreme caution
with everything in this place.
I'm sure the models will love walking down here.
Madam Ca! Hello!
Hello. How are you?
What a good timing.
Come with me to sample the food for the fashion show.
Come on!
What about me?
Wait for me!
DOCUMENTS NEEDED TO APPLY FOR FRANCE'S TALENT PASSPORT
Are you really going to Paris after the fashion show?
I'm so jealous.
But if you do end up going, what will happen to your boyfriend?
Will you two break up?
Yoon-bok?
But whatever I do, I will stay by your side.
Even if I must travel halfway across the world.
We're going together.
Seriously?
How is your ankle, Master?
I'm fine now. I feel like I could fly.
Be careful, you may injure yourself again.
Be careful.
Please visit the women's society with Yoon-bok, Hong-do Kim.
Do you like it?
Try the rice cake too.
Hong-do Kim!
Goodness.
Welcome, Young Master.
Is your ankle better now?
Yes, thank you for your help.
No problem at all.
Please join us over there.
I'm in big trouble, Hong-do Kim.
What's wrong, ma'am?
My forty years of dieting went down the drain today.
Sorry?
Goodness.
Please try this, Lady Hong-do.
-Thank you. -It's good.
-Try this too. -Okay.
She eats so well.
-Now, drink this. -Right.
Wash it all down.
Why aren't you eating more, Madam Ca?
I told you I'm stuffed!
Oh my goodness.
Look how thin your wrists are.
You could barely sew with these thin, weak wrists.
Come on, you need to eat up.
-Oh gosh! -Keep eating!
Isn't it good?
The village is so much livelier with Young Master here.
My goodness!
You're right.
It reminds me of when Lord Shin Sa-do was still with us.
Your father would also
invite outsiders into the village once in a while.
CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE
URI ELECTRIC POWER CORPORATION
-Our unit is finished. -Who are those people?
When I first saw all those strangers,
I was worried sick.
-Goodness. -What in the world?
What's going on?
I do not see how it will help us preserve tradition.
Our village must accept change.
The villagers' lives are just as important as preserving tradition.
Lord Shin.
Thank you so much.
It was inconvenient to walk around in the evening
due to how dark the village was.
But now our village is full of light.
My child used to cry every night because of the dark,
but last night they fell asleep with a smile on their face.
I regret that it was not done sooner.
I shall do my best to make your lives even more convenient.
Thank you.
He made the village a brighter place
and brightened our lives as well.
Life was easier thanks to him.
I can't imagine how hard our lives would've been
if it wasn't for Lord Shin Sa-do.
Well, I can. We would've had to control our bladders every night.
He cared so much for us.
How heartless are the heavens.
You'll continue your father's legacy,
won't you, Young Master?
Of course.
That's good news.
Yoon-bok.
Your father
must've been a good man.
Everyone misses him.
I heard he took the lead in reforming the village for the people.
I do not remember every detail as he passed away when I was young,
but some of his words to me
remain in my memories.
Yoon-bok.
Today is the day Seongsan Gate will be opened for the first time.
Make sure to remember the day our village was reborn.
After my father passed away,
Grandfather shut the village gate
and halted his efforts.
However, someone must continue his legacy
for the sake of the village.
Last night,
I noticed this was damaged.
Many children play here at dusk.
Have someone fix it so no one gets hurt.
Yes, my lord.
-This is amazing. It's such a vibe. -It's a good photo spot.
-You look so good. -Take another one.
Right there. One, two, three.
Is something going on between Madam Camille and Franky?
What do you mean?
They're always so close together.
-You're right. -I know, right?
I thought they were married at first.
Me too.
Well, it makes sense.
Franky is successful, kind,
and looks good for his age.
I see why she's into him.
He's a middle-aged man who feels a lot younger.
A lot younger?
Oh, come on.
Her employees are idling about and chatting away.
Why isn't she doing anything about this?
I like these two photos.
-You look good in both. -I look cuter here.
Oh, it's Mr. Shin.
-Hello, Mr. Shin. -Hello, sir.
Are you busy?
Take care, Mr. Shin!
I miss you too, honey.
I'll come home to you as soon as the fashion show's over.
Yeah.
I love you.
Dear heavens.
That...
That man
acts as if he is married to Lady Bok-soon
but is actually
married to someone else?
Goodness.
Is Lady Bok-soon aware of this?
What must I do?
Goodness.
Are you in?
The women's society outdid themselves with this.
I didn't even realize I ate an entire bucket's worth.
I shall have it later.
Come on now.
Just eat it!
I brought these especially for you.
Lady Bok-soon,
may I ask you something?
It is about that man Franky.
Franky?
How much do you know about him?
Well, everything.
Everything?
Do you know about his friends
and family?
I always feel bad when I think about his family.
But what can I do?
I can't do anything without him.
You must stop!
What?
How can you and that married man...
What?
Forget it.
Please take your leave.
What? Wait a minute!
Did you think...
Oh goodness.
We're simply business partners and best friends.
Friends?
How can a man and a woman be friends?
That's how it is in the outside world.
You're so old-fashioned.
Are you
jealous?
What? "Jealous"?
That is not an emotion
a nobleman can feel!
Why are you getting so angry about it?
Some may think you're actually jealous.
I said I'm not!
All right then!
Give that to me.
This, again!
How many times have I told you
that you are to be the next gatekeeper of this village?
Stop wasting your time with this and go train in martial arts.
As the heir of the Woorim family, you are to lead the village eventually.
But instead of studying the literary and martial arts,
you are wasting your time with these foolish endeavors!
You are quite talented.
I would like you to draw my face next time.
Really?
But my grandfather will scold me.
If he does,
tell him I asked you earnestly.
Twenty years have passed
and yet nothing has changed.
Master!
Right here, Yoon-bok.
I can tell you practiced a lot.
You've improved.
Well, I have a great teacher.
Today, we'll work on your top pose.
A top pose is the pose you strike
before you turn at the end of the runway.
I'll go first.
All right.
First, walk confidently.
Look straight ahead, then left,
then right,
and flaunt your back.
Can you do it?
Yes, I have done some research on poses.
You did?
Show me what you've got.
Where did you learn this?
I saw people do it on television.
Yoon-bok,
you'll be walking down the runway as the face of Seongsan Village.
So just be your usual self,
an elegant nobleman.
Is that so?
Yeah.
Then I shall try again.
Okay.
Go.
Yes, that's what I'm talking about!
You did great.
What's on your mind?
What kind of dreams
do children outside dream about?
There are too many to list.
They dream of becoming athletes, pop stars, police officers,
astronauts, and so on.
Kids have all kinds of dreams.
I wish
those children could also dream freely.
After my father passed away,
Grandfather shut the village gate
and halted his efforts.
However, someone must continue his legacy
for the sake of the village.
So I have thought of an idea.
May I share it with you?
Seongsan skills class?
We could invite guest lecturers
to teach the villagers skills from the outside world
that are new to the village.
Then the children and the youth of the village will be able to dream
more freely and broadly.
That could lead to the collapse of the traditions
our ancestors struggled to uphold.
Tradition that does not adapt to the times is bound to deteriorate.
The true way to uphold tradition
is to wisely accept change.
Tradition will eventually deteriorate if we leave it as it is.
Master.
How did it go?
I do not wish to repeat the pains of the past.
As such,
I will allow a one-day trial.
Afterward, we shall discuss the results and reach a decision.
That's great news!
It is.
I must think about what the village needs.
Okay.
Are you on your way to Madam Ca?
Why do you ask?
I'll bring this to her. You should go rest.
I'm fine.
Come on, go.
Jeez.
The plan is to set the stage in front of the bell pavilion.
For a very long time,
soldiers rang the bell and protected the village in times of crisis.
It is a meaningful place.
It's a good opportunity to show the world our cultural heritage.
Please pay particular attention so it doesn't get damaged.
As a matter of fact, we've already sent out a special notice.
Who is he?
Do not worry, he is an acquaintance.
There we go.
I brought sujeonggwa for everyone.
Here you go.
Just a moment.
This should taste better.
They say pine nuts are great for stress relief.
Make sure to chew well and enjoy.
So who should we invite as guests?
Goodness.
What do you think you're doing?
Well, I just...
I was forced by Lady Yeoju to bring refreshments.
Anyway, are you really working with all those remarkable people?
You're amazing. I'm impressed.
Don't show yourself again.
Jeez, that girl.
She's shooting daggers at me.
But what can I do?
I made a mistake.
I told you to go rest.
Why are you out here sighing like there's no tomorrow?
Well...
Could you go somewhere with me?
Where?
I'm dying to know how my son's doing.
I want to go see him.
But the thought of going there alone
makes my heart pound.
He refused your request to see him.
Every trip you make here seems to be in vain, Detective Shin.
How many times has it been?
I'll come back next time.
All right.
CIVIL AFFAIRS OFFICE
I'll take a walk around the neighborhood
and wait for you at the café over there.
Take all the time you need and have a good time with your son.
And don't cry too much.
Inmate 8789, you have a visitor.
I refuse to see that detective.
Tell her not to come anymore.
It's your mother.
Oh my goodness.
Jun-ho!
My poor boy.
You've lost so much weight.
Why are you here, Mom?
Why else?
I'm here to see your face.
Are you here alone?
Did anything happen on the way?
What are you talking about?
Did anyone follow you here?
What's gotten into you?
You need to leave now.
-What? -Go back to the village.
And don't come here again until I'm released.
Better yet, don't take a single step outside the village until then.
What's going on with you?
We're done.
Wait, Jun-ho!
Jun-ho!
Where is he?
My goodness.
I'm sorry for being late.
Wait.
What happened to your face?
I stumbled right outside.
You're not a kid anymore. You should be more careful.
Your eyes are so swollen.
I told you not to cry.
I didn't cry.
Well, only a little.
RANKING OF CHILDREN'S DREAM JOBS
ATHLETE, SINGER, CIVIL SERVANT, WEBCOMIC ARTIST...
What if we ask Hong-hak to teach a webcomic class?
Hong-hak?
Grandfather is most concerned about the safety of the village,
so we should ask people we trust.
Okay, I'll make sure he comes.
Thank you.
Oh, right.
Should I also ask Hyang-gi?
Barista skills are in high demand these days.
That is a good idea.
It would also be nice if you also took part.
Me?
If you join us,
the villagers will find it easier to get used to the classes.
Then should I?
Yes.
All right.
We could set up Hong-hak here.
What a good idea!
I had been wondering how to thank the villagers
for opening up to us.
This is perfect. Go contribute your talent.
Yes, ma'am.
Hello?
You want me to teach webcomics?
At Seongsan Village?
Why on earth would I do that?
It's for a good cause.
But I don't know if I'll have time.
I'm really busy, you know?
I'm a star artist!
And I hate long-distance drives.
How am I supposed to get there?
Will you buy me a car?
Enough!
Please, I'm begging you.
You want me to teach children self-defense?
I would appreciate it if you could.
Okay, I'll get on it.
SEONGSAN SKILLS CLASS
DRAWING WEBCOMICS: KIM HONG-HAK MAKING (GABAE) COFFEE: LEE HYANG-GI
SELF-DEFENSE: OH YUN-A OUR PRECIOUS TRADITION: SHIN YOON-BOK
What's this?
SEONGSAN SKILLS CLASS
Tomorrow is finally the day.
I hope it goes well.
KIM HONG-HAK
Who is it at this hour?
What's this?
"Seongsan skills class."
Wait, is Hong-hak coming to the village?
"Drawing webcomics."
That's my Hong-hak.
It really is.
We shall go now.
Welcome.
-Hello. -It's been a while.
I never imagined I'd come to Seongsan Village.
Thank you for coming on such short notice.
Thank you for making time out of your busy schedule.
Don't mention it.
That's what friends are for.
Then let us all go inside.
-This way. -Okay.
Why is it so quiet?
Don't tell me no one signed up.
Are you all here for the skills class?
-Yes! -Yes!
Then let us begin.
Hey, lady.
Stop overreacting.
MAKING (GABAE) COFFEE: LEE HYANG-GI
Take a look at the screen.
-Isn't this cool? -Yes.
And if we click this...
DRAWING WEBCOMICS: KIM HONG-HAK
Now, it's time for you to create your own drawings.
-Okay. -Okay.
All right, start!
-Okay! -Okay!
-One. -One.
-Turn, then two. -Two.
Spin, then hit.
-Hit. -Hit harder.
-Hit! -Hit!
Then, one and two.
Now, for the heart.
How is that a heart?
To be honest, I'm bad at making this heart
but great at making this one.
Who wants relationship advice?
Okay, make your round nose even rounder.
And make your thick eyebrows even thicker.
Draw everything boldly.
Ta-da!
He's not bad when he's in his element.
You're right.
What are you doing here?
Preserving tradition is just as important as learning new things.
I believe gestures of acknowledgment is the most beautiful tradition of all.
But there is one gesture that is difficult to put into practice
and involves acknowledging your own wrongdoings.
It is apologizing.
Goodness, is it not a courtesy to apologize for bumping into me?
Well, I don't want to.
You are one impolite fellow!
-How dare you? -What the?
Let go of me!
You leave me no choice. Taste the sword of justice, you rascal!
No!
If only I had apologized...
Now,
we should apologize for our wrongs, should we not?
-Yes. -Yes.
Gestures of acknowledgment is the very base of humanity.
So from now on,
I hope you will all take the initiative to carry out such actions first.
-Okay! -Okay!
OUR PRECIOUS TRADITION: SHIN YOON-BOK
You were great, Yoon-bok.
The kids loved it.
You and the others deserve the credit.
I hope it was helpful to the children.
I'm sure the kids felt your love for the village.
I must think of other things I can do for the village.
Yoon-bok!
What is the matter?
We need to hurry.
YOON-BOK
We wrote a letter for you.
YOON-BOK
I WANT TO BE A GREAT MAN LIKE YOU SOMEDAY
IT WAS THE MOST SPECIAL EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE!
I WAS HAPPY TO EXPERIENCE NEW THINGS
THANKS TO YOU, I GOT TO LEARN NEW THINGS!
I LOVE YOU, MASTER YOON-BOK
THANK YOU, YOON-BOK
THANK YOU
Yoon-bok.
THANK YOU FOR A GREAT DAY, MASTER YOON-BOK
THE COOL YOON-BOK
Is this how I look?
Do you not like it?
No.
I love it.
Thank you for your hard work today.
Let me know if you need me again next time.
I think I've fallen in love with Seongsan Village.
Sounds good.
I shall take our guests home. You two should go rest.
-Thank you. -No problem.
Take care.
Thanks, Hyang-gi. See you in Seoul.
Bye, Hong-hak.
-See you at home. -Okay.
This way, please.
-Let us go as well. -All right.
I need to go to the bathroom.
Oh, someone was waiting for you a while ago.
-Me? -Yes.
I have a fan here too?
Dad?
"Dad"?
-My son. -Dad!
My son.
Where have you been all this time?
I'm so sorry.
I read all of your webcomics though.
-They're good, aren't they? -Yes.
You've aged so much.
Life's been tough.
Dad...
Have a good night, Master.
Good work today.
Good night.
I LOVE YOU, MASTER YOON-BOK
THANK YOU, YOON-BOK
We're so glad you're here, Young Master.
Please continue to create good opportunities for us.
You'll continue your father's legacy, won't you, Young Master?
I must think of other things I can do for the village.
DOCUMENTS NEEDED TO APPLY FOR FRANCE'S TALENT PASSPORT
HERE IS THE GUIDE TO APPLY FOR FRANCE'S TALENT PASSPORT
But whatever I do, I will stay by your side.
Even if I must travel
halfway across the world.
Young Master.
What is it?
Young Master.
I actually went to see Jun-ho yesterday.
And...
Go tell Young Master Yoon-bok
that I'll meet with him once.
Jun-ho told me he would meet with you just once.
Why does he want to see me?
The keychain you had
was in my father's possession
until he passed away.
If you were...
That has nothing to do with me.
Is there something he must tell me?
Did you sleep well, Master?
Due to an important matter, I had to leave the village in a hurry.
I will return tonight,
so let us do the walk training then.
What's going on?
Inmate 8789, you have a visitor.
-Who is it? -His name is Shin Yoon-bok.
What is taking so long?
Two stab wounds in his abdomen.
Blood pressure, 70 over 40.
It's decreasing rapidly due to heavy bleeding,
and there's possible organ damage.
-Call the surgeon. -On it.
Yi-bok.
Yoon-bok.
What happened?
SERVICE UNAVAILABLE
Hello? Has the suspect been found?
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
200 joules.
Got it. Shot!
THANK YOU TO LIM HO FOR HIS SPECIAL APPEARANCE
You are after a very dangerous and cruel individual.
You may hurt yourself.
I cannot leave being constantly worried
that they might harm you and the village.
-That is for me to handle. -Grandfather.
Yoon-bok.
Thank you so much for taking care of me all this time.
You should stay here.
Hong-do, I'm willing to do anything for you.
Who are you?
What are you doing here?
That keychain...
That was you?
Master.
