----
Chung Seong!
What are you doing?
Here. The safest place in Goryeo.
I am going to hide here right next you.
I got a permission from the King and I also got this sword.
Look. It's mine.
It seems like there isn't a woman dorm here.
So, I am going to stay here for a while.
Can you just put an extra bed over there so I can sleep?
Or you can just put two chairs. I can sleep on that too.
We should clean up our rooms.
I can cure your soldiers for free. Don't worry. I won't bother you.
So I should stay here with you?
This is the captain's room and you're the captain.
Because I'm the captain.
Here.
Let's not run away.
Captain and Eui Seon are...
- You rascal. - Hey, don't hit my head!
Get out! Don't stay here! Get out!
I said get out.
Why?
What?
You're going back to heaven in 15 days. And you want to stay with me in my room?
Why is that?
According to the King, the safest place is here.
According to the King?
I asked him for the help.
You are a very strange woman to begin with.
Am I?
I didn't know why you laugh and why you get so mad.
But I finally realized that you always worry about me.
Because you were worried about me, you cried.
Because you were worried about me, you ran away from me.
This is why you told me to come back here, isn't it?
Because you were worried about me, who always thinks of the palace.
Even if it's very risky for you?
I am not dead yet.
This is how things are going to work.
First, I am going to get the antidote for you.
And if you can get cured before you go back to heaven
I am going to ask you...
if you can stay with me.
I know there are people who are waiting for you in heaven.
I know that, but I am still going to ask you.
If you can stay with me, if I can protect you forever.
It won't be easy to protect me.
- I know. - Forever?
If I can have you, I will protect you forever.
Not just today or for a couple days.
So if I ask you this when the time comes...
Are you going to give me an answer?
I was summoned to see you, Your Majesty.
Have a seat.
When are you going to come back?
I was going to give Eui Seon a government position yesterday.
I thought if she is in a high government position, she would be safer.
But she wished to join Wu Dal Chi.
- Yes. - So you're going to stay here for a while?
I want to have it out with some problem first.
It's probably about Deuk Heung, isn't it?
- He kidnapped the Queen and... - You need the antidote for Eui Seon.
Can I do something about it?
Dan Sa Gwan is protecting him.
If it's hard to do officially, then I'll do it personally.
Let's do it officially.
- Don't lose! - Don't worry!
Captain.
- Continue. - Okay.
Me? Why?
You came here to hide yourself.
- I am hiding myself here. - With that many men?
They are all members of Wu Dal Chi. He said I will be fine.
Who said that?
I was going to go to Jeon Eui Shi but they said I need to get your permission.
So I was waiting for you, Captain.
There are some herbs I need in Jeon Eui Shi and I need my research papers from there.
May I go, Captain?
With four member of Wu Dal Chi, you may go.
With four member. I got it.
After you bring them from there, stay in this room and keep researching or whatever.
Yes, Captain.
Why did you come here anyway? Did you come here to see me?
- I will be here late tonight. - Yes, Captain.
- Because I have something to do. - I will be waiting, Captain.
Say Captain one more time.
Captain?
Captain.
We're ready to go now.
Let's go.
Your Majesty.
You came here again?
Is it still impossible to see her?
I told you I sent Eui Seon on a mission.
- I cannot let her meet you yet. - Then I will have to find her by myself.
So the governor Byun captured Chun Hyang. ( A korean nursery tale)
But there's no other way. So Chun Hyang was captured.
Now she's in the governor's house.
So the governor was sitting in the floor.
And Chun Hyang was sitting in the yard being tied up.
So the governor said, ' Chun Hyang, are you going to give me a bed service?'
That kind of bastard is in everywhere.
You know what she said? She said, 'No!'
What's wrong?
Deok Man, guard Eui Seon. And you follow me.
Eui Seon.
Here.
Eui Seon.
The enemies were gone already. And this.
Dr. Jang was holding this until he died.
What are you talking about? Dr. Jang was what?
He passed away.
We're going to go back to Wu Dal Chi's lodging. We don't know when they are coming back.
Step aside. I need to see him.
They are stronger than us for sure. If they come back, we can't protect you.
I think it's a poison called Bi Chung.
It will be just like a wound at first and won't be any symptoms at first.
But if it gets worse, you will only have seven days to cure until you die.
Then what should I do?
- We should make an antidote. - Can we?
We should try. We don't know until we try.
You should run away from the King. Go to Jung Dong Heng Sung and hide yourself there.
Don't even think about tricking me. I will be watching you, so just follow my lead.
That is what I want you to do.
Send out some people to guard every door.
It is very suspicious they tried to stall for time.
Okay.
- Do not let anyone escape. - Okay.
I came to see Deuk Heung.
I heard he's staying here.
- You are one of them. - Where is he?
Where's Deuk Heung?
I investigated every person who was at the heaven's door at that time.
They all said the same thing. The door was opened
and you came back from heaven with Eui Seon.
And the King also has seen that.
Tell all Wu Dal Chi to search for Deuk Heung in every corner of the house.
I got a permission to do that from the King already.
When did all the people plan to fool me by telling the same story?
Did you make up the story?
No.
That monster fooled all the people and...
Watch your mouth. Deuk Heung will be investigated for kidnapping the Queen.
People saw this one carriage coming out from the back door in this house.
Other members are after it.
Do not let him escape. He is probably heading to Heng Sung.
Okay.
If you are helping him, even if you are an excellency, you will not get away with it.
Be careful.
Let me see her. Just tell me where she is. I will not kill her.
There's something I should ask her.
You'd probably do everything you can to hurt her except for killing her.
I have heard what you have done in the past. I cannot let you see her.
It is not like we must declare war.
We're increasing military expenses just for defending the country.
Honestly, the King's politics were very touch-and-go from the beginning.
He does not care about the people. He only cares about his pride.
I cannot stand this.
But since the envoy from Yuan is here, why don't we go talk to him?
Your Majesty.
Are you not attending the meeting?
It is so loud in there so I am taking a rest here.
We got Deuk Heung in a jail. When do you want to start investigating?
Today...
Since I have to work things out with people there tonight, I will do it tomorrow morning.
I will prepare for that.
Dr. Jang got attacked.
I think he got attacked by people who looked for Eui Seon.
Did he get hurt?
We lost him.
Eui Seon must have been so shocked. I heard he was the only friend to her in this world.
- Captain, Dr. Jang... - I heard.
Su Li Bang got attacked too.
Some of them got hurt.
- Was it Gi Cheol? - His brother and sister did it.
They're looking for Eui Seon.
Some of Su Li Bang people were tortured.
You are late.
The room smells like herbs, doesn't it?
People told me not to go to Jeon Eui Shi. Let me work here. I am sorry.
- You know that Dr. Jang is... - I heard.
He was my teacher.
He was a good friend and a good listener.
I think he died because of me.
Look at this. This is the antidote.
He was protecting this even as he was dying.
Only this one reacted.
We do not know yet. We are going to have to wait and see but this one...
I think he died because he protected this.
People said he was hiding this in his hands.
So he was killed by the enemies who were looking for me...
It is all because of me. If I was not here...
So it means I killed him.
I killed him.
Get some sleep.
I was 16-years-old when I first killed a person.
He was a foreign enemy.
People around me told me I did a good job.
Because it was very bold and brave.
So at first, I was very excited and proud of myself.
But I could not sleep at all at that night.
Because I shivered with cold.
I felt so cold, but the weather was not cold at all.
It was on June 21st.
Do you remember the date?
I remember the date and the person's face who I killed.
Do you remember the second man you killed?
No, from the second man onward I only remember
one more... and one more.... and one more.
That's why I can say I kill people.
You should not be saying 'I kill people' that easily.
- Did you hear what I said? - Yes, I did.
Then go to sleep.
I am here.
If I count three, you should turn around at look at me.
One.
Two.
Three.
If you wake up late, you will not get to have breakfast.
I'll be back.
One.
Two.
Three.
Excellency Deuk Heung, the investigation will start soon. Let me take you.
I am asking you this for the last time. Do you have the antidote?
What antidote?
Ah, for her?
If I give you the antidote, are you going to give back my fiance?
Come in.
Search for the antidote. Even in his hair.
- He does not have it? - No, he does not.
- Nothing? - Yes.
You must be Choi Young the Ho Gun, right?
What are Yuan soldiers doing in Goryeo's palace?
The government position of Excellency Deuk Heung was given by Yuan.
Even if he committed a crime
it will be people of Yuan who investigate and punish him, not Goryeo.
That is the law.
Why did you...
try to kill Eui Seon?
If her reputation is spread to Yuan, you should take her to Yuan and show her to the King.
- Why do you want to kill her right away? - If I see a woman named Eui Seon...
I will explain it to her directly.
One more thing. How did you know my name?
I am only Ho Gun. Besides, I have not been around the King recently.
That is what the information I got when I arrived in Goryeo said.
The present King of Goryeo can be the tiger.
But the tiger's toenail is Choi Young. So if you get rid of him
the King can be raised as a cat.
That is why I remember your name.
Did you come to Goryeo to break the King's morale?
I have not decided whom I should break yet.
Just like you said, I sent Deuk Heung to Dan Sa Gwan.
- I know it was not easy for you to do that. - But are you sure about that?
That if they find out Yuan took Deuk Heung, all the retainers will come back to you.
- I should try. - Your Majesty.
Jung Dong Heng Sung is Gi Cheol's property.
People there support Yuan.
And they took Deuk Heung. It means they will be attacking you soon.
- I know. - Let me control your armies.
I will attack them before they attack you.
I am going to get all the retainers' permission first.
You do not need to get permission from them.
I do.
They are willing to do anything for their own benefit.
They use their own private soldiers but I use the people to make soldiers.
So I need time.
[Jung Dong Heng Sung] (Yuan's intervention in domestic affairs).
The King has 2,000 royal guards.
Even if they include other guards he has, it will not make a big difference.
Gi Cheol and the intervention have twice as many soldiers as us.
If they decide to join forces to work together, it will be very hard for us to defeat them.
With them, our reformation will be impossible.
Do know what these are? These are what the King is prosecuting.
He is trying to take all the lands and slaves we have and use them to have a war with Yuan.
If Yuan attacks us soon
We will have to fight with Yuan on the frontier, while fighting against them inside.
Are we just going to wait until that day comes?
They are supporting this man who kidnapped the Queen.
We have a reason.
We cannot miss this moment.
So...
I am planning to change that
by crowning him as our new king.
I' want to keep our safety, peace and prosperity.
There are not many Yuan soldiers in the Heng Sung. There are about 100 of them?
But the problem is the reaction of Ssang Sung if we attack here.
Who knows about Ssang Sung well?
How did it go?
Not yet.
The retainers have not made up their minds yet.
I am going to convince them by talking to them one by one.
So I would like you to wait more.
Your Majesty, it has to be an ambush.
If it takes long and the plan is revealed, the border will be in danger.
I know, but I enforce the plan without the retainers' agreement.
You said you are going to use Deuk Heung as a bait to attack Jung Dong Heng Sung.
So you told me not to touch him at all.
Yes, I did.
You think I was happy about that?
Did you throw the bait without a fishing rod?
Do you even know what fishing is?
I am the King so I need a reason.
Please make a reason as soon as possible.
Then how about I give you a command again?
A command that you capture Deuk Heung no matter what.
Because I am still mad at what happened to the Queen, amputate his limbs.
You would probably go do it, no matter what it takes.
Do you remember the day I arrived in Goryeo?
On the night the assassins attacked us, you asked me...
if I can stay behind your back, even if you get scared.
Then you can protect me.
I hid behind your back and you protected me.
Your Majesty.
Until when do I have to hide behind your back?
This is why you need a reason, not me?
All I want is to get rid up Gi Cheol without seeing anybody's blood.
That way, we can see our lost terrain again.
Can you just wait and watch me?
Okay.
I heard it was Gi Cheol's people who killed Dr. Jang.
That is what I heard.
Go arrest them. Don't kill them. Catch them alive.
I receive your order.
I did every check up that I could do. And you are fine.
Your pulse is good and I do not see any sign of an infection.
Deok will make you some medicine. It will help you.
Okay.
Eui Seon.
There is something I would like to ask you.
Okay, ask me.
You told me before...
how much the King loves me and what would become of him if I leave him first.
You already knew about it, didn't you?
You also knew that my womb is weak.
That is...
Please tell me one more thing about the heaven's knowledge.
When can we, the King and I...
have our next baby?
Am I going to be able to have a baby?
- Your Majesty... - Am I going to have to leave first?
The King?
Is this why you told me about that?
Can I talk to you, Eui Seon?
- Dan Sa Gwan sent a letter to you. - Me?
I cannot read Chinese.
He wanted you to read this alone. He said he will be waiting.
Eui Seon, are you okay?
Where is he?
Eun Soo.
This. The letter you sent me. Did you write this by yourself?
- I did write this by myself. - Do you know what it means?
Do you know what this means?
You are one of Su Li Bang people, aren't you?
I remember your face.
100 Nyang.
Want to know where Eui Seon is? Then give me 100 Nyang.
What the... Are they kidding me now?
Step aside.
I am going to burn this house down.
Wait.
It is an oil.
They spread this all over the house.
Whoever did this must have worked so hard for this.
- You did not fight with them, did you? - No. We only locked them in.
- Is everything ready? - We did everything you told us to do.
Did you ambush Jeon Eui Shi and kill the King's doctor and his assistants?
What are you going to do if I say we did?
Then you will put down your weapons and get arrested.
If you use fire, you will get burned first.
So do not play with fire.
This is so cowardly and unlike you. What is wrong with you?
Let's just fight one to one.
Why do I have to do that?
Put down your weapons and get arrested.
Dae Man, give me the bottle of oil.
- Since you love to play with fire... - Hey.
Excuse me.
Take them.
So you know how to read this.
Do you know this letter?
You would not have come here to see me like this if you did not know about this letter.
I am the one who wants to execute you in public.
If I say I know how to read that letter
are you going to call me a monster and execute me in public?
If I say I will do that, then you would not tell me the truth.
Of course, I would not.
Then let's do this.
We are both going to forget about
what we are going to talk about here right after you leave.
Fine.
What does this letter say?
Can't you read it?
I can only write this from my memory.
Where did you see this?
I found this from my great-great-great-grandfather's dairy.
This was written in the corner of the diary.
I think he copied the letters from somewhere.
In the diary, there was a story about a woman
who used tools from heaven and herbs from the ground to cure people's illness.
There was also a story about how she brought back a child from his death.
Is there something wrong with that?
If someone she cured became a boss of a group of robbers later
and he came back to his town and killed all the villagers
then it is wrong.
My great-great-great- grandfather left a will.
He said if there is a descendant who insists sh is a doctor from heaven
kill her immediately and bring peace to the world.
What do you think of this?
Have you cured somebody that you should not have have?
I am a doctor. There is nobody I am not supposed to cure.
Let me ask you again.
Are you from heaven?
No.
What does...
this letter say?
It says, 'What are you doing there now?'
I tried to get all the antidotes, but there is not an antidote for Bi Chung Dok.
Isn't there anything else? Something that can ease pain?
This antidote kills the pain but...
What else?
But I do not know if it works for the poison.
There is not much time. I let her stay alone for a whole day.
I should go soon.
What about this?
Hey, everybody. Can you line up here?
This is Hovenia dulcis tea.
There are so many Hovenia leaves around the lodgings.
In my world, people make tea out of this for a pick-me-up. I made it for you.
So make a tea following the directions I gave you
and give it to other members when they come back from a shift.
- There are many ingredients left. - Okay. Don not worry.
Captain.
Welcome back. Nice job today.
Would you like to drink a tea? It is a good pick-me-up.
Do not cure anybody. Do not kill anybody.
Do not touch anything in this world.
You think you can live like that?
Do you know how much I tried to live like that?
I don't care if you really are from heaven or not.
I have been living making soaps and curing people who will not change history.
It is my job to get rid of people that are harmful to the world.
I do not know about the world but I know about a human body very well.
The human body sometime needs something dangerous to become stronger.
People develop immunity and resistance to infection
so I would like to ask you
are you saying I should not live life to the fullest because it might be dangerous to the world?
What are you trying to say?
Now I know what is in your mind.
History will change because of me? So be it!
Am I from a different world? Where I live now is my world.
I am so mad that I had to live a life hiding from everybody.
What? Are you still going to have to kill me?
Then do it! I'm going to live life to the fullest.
Today, you sleep in the bed comfortably.
Because your doctor is telling you to do that.
Please listen to me.
- This new member is so rude to the captain! - Please!
How is going with your antidote research?
It is kind of sad I lost sterilized tools.
I would appreciate if there was a microscope here with me.
The biggest problem is time.
The right temperature and environment are the most important.
Since I cannot do anything, I just wait and wait.
What was that? It seems like it happened to you more than once.
Pull it.
Pull it harder.
It looks fine. Has this happened to you before? Since when?
It is because of lack of sleep. So let's sleep.
We got an official document from Jung Dung Heng Sung.
It says the investigation for Deuk Heung will be held there.
So they want you to come and attend his investigation.
That is not good, your Majesty. It is not good for you to go there in this situation.
He will come.
I know him well enough. He will come for sure.
If I were him, I would never come.
Because the most important thing for you is yourself.
But for the King, it is public attention.
So he will be coming.
I am not interested in politics, so I do not know.
Are you not interested in politics?
No, I am not. The only thing that I am interested in is a government position.
We're good accompaniments for each other.
Because I'm not interested in a government position.
Why is public attention so important?
I do not understand.
Until you become a king, please do care about a public attention.
At the investigation today, Dan Sa Gwan will be there too.
Please be nice to him.
Of course, I will.
If the King arrives
I am going to kidnap him and use him as a hostage to requisition his armies.
I will dethrone the King who does not want to see anyone's blood.
And then...
I will do the brutal part.
It means you are going to be bait.
Sorry, I do not know about fishing.
Do you really have to do this?
Isn't it worth if it can help the retainers decide more easily?
We do not know how brutal they will be to you.
How brutal do you think can they be?
The goal of this plan is to get you there safely and get you back to the palace safely.
So this place is where the investigation will be held.
It will be better if they do not know we already made a provision for it.
Wu Dal Chi will be guarding the King to Jung Dong Heng Sung.
If they find out we are prepared for the fight
they will bring their private soldiers.
Then it is very disadvantageous for us.
So...
Only Wu Dal Chi will be guarding the King.
12 of us will be following the King and the rest will be waiting outside of Heng Sung.
Most of Wu Dal Chi's members will be out of the palace.
It cannot be helped, since there are many new members.
I cannot separate them.
This place will be empty for a while.
I am going to go see the Queen later.
After that, I will just stay here. Do not worry.
How is your hand? Try to move it.
If it hurts or anything, tell your doctor immediately.
Are you not answering?
How dare a new member be so rude?
It is done, Captain.
