Gyum.

Even if something happens to me, you must live.

Father...

Who sent you?

How could you...?

How could you do this to me?

Prince Gwanghae was right?

There cannot be two suns in the sky.

I truly did love you.

Thus...

I won't let you die by someone else's hands.

What are you doing?

Is there something inside?

There's nothing inside.

This is the house.

That rotten piece of paper...

Oh, my back...

I just don't have it anymore.

What the heck...?

Save me...

What is that?

A ghost...?

Save me...

Save me...

Save me.

Save me.

Save me.

Yi Won-ho, you are convicted of grand treason by royal decree!

Search the place!

Fine the traitor!

Grand treason...?

What the heck...?

What in the world is going on?

What the heck am I supposed to do now?

Who's the child?

Well...

He must've committed suicide when the insurrection failed.

But it's rather strange.

When committing suicide, one usually thrusts the sword.

So why did he slash himself?

Especially with his left hand...

You and your curiosity.

He must've been left-handed.

And there are no signs of hesitation.

In a suicide, you see marks that indicate hesitation.

But he slashed himself just like that?

Stop with the nonsense, and clean up the corpse.

My lord, this was discovered under the pillar.

Oh, my...

What is it?

A pact written in blood.

So he did instigate the insurrection.

Where are you going?

You saw a dead body.

I'm going to the magistrate's building

to return the sewing jobs.

I can probably find out what happened too.

That child...

Where have I seen him before?

It's from the magistrate's wife.

Enjoy.

Thanks.

Why is there so much commotion here?

Did something happen?

You don't want to know.

All the traitors are being rounded up.

I heard the chief traitor killed himself.

He killed himself?

Yes.

Sure, it's easy to die, but what about his family?

And the guy's son is missing.

They're looking high and low for him.

He had a son?

Yes.

Who's this man that killed himself?

Some nobleman named Yi Won-ho.

I've never heard of him.

Neither have I.

First time I've heard his name.

Father...

Father...

That's right...

You're Yi Won-ho's son.

While my son was being called a thief's son,

you were raised with all the privileges.

Get up!

What are you doing?

Get away.

He's a traitor's son.

You know what will happen to us if we hide him.

They'll kill us like dogs.

Calm down.

If we turn him in to the magistrate,

he's as good as dead.

That's why I want to turn him in.

What? Don't say that.

Calm down...

Let's talk.

Let go!

I'm turning that child in.

Don't get so worked up. Calm down.

That child...

He's Yi Won-ho's son.

What?

That means the dead man was...

Yes, that was Yi Won-ho.

He died without even giving me a chance to wreak vengeance.

You wait and see.

He'll see from the netherworld what happens to his son.

That's how I'll get him back.

But...

No matter how much you hate the man...

If that child is his son...

That means the child and Cha-dol are brothers.

He's Cha-dol's younger brother.

10 YEARS AGO

You better pay me the 100 coins when I'm done.

Don't give me the runaround.

Sure, but you won't get a lick if you mess up.

Don't you worry and go have yourself a drink.

I'll be there in a flash.

Man, now this is giving me grief...

Who are you?

I have to do this to put food on the table...

So please understand.

I'm just doing as I was told...

I'm sorry.

I realize that this isn't right,

but I wanted to meet you.

But seeing you puts my mind at ease.

You seem to have a kind disposition.

Wherever I go...

Folks do tell me that I look like a nice guy...

It's not much. But I beg you.

Make sure that she's happy.

She is a gentle and beautiful girl.

She is most special.

Take her.

She's so darn heavy.

Man, talk about an angel.

Here.

Good job.

Come on.

Careful.

I wonder what the story is...

Why is a servant girl getting kidnapped?

Wait...

That's a dead end.

Don't blame me.

I'm just doing what your master told me to.

A servant girl can't have the young master's child.

You dumb wench.

Stop that!

You said you were going to make her your woman!

So why are you trying to kill her?

Let me live.

I'm innocent...

Just doing as I was told...

You can have all this money!

Give this woman to me.

She's okay.

She's just in a little shock.

And the baby is doing fine too.

Baby...?

The young master didn't want to kill you.

He even gave me money to take care of you...

But I can't tell you that.

I won't tell you.

You talk bad about that nobleman,

but your heart is still with him.

You may never give your heart to me.

So I can't tell you.

I can't...

Look at you carrying on all by yourself.

How's my Cha-dol doing?

His name is Si-hu now. He's not a bumpkin anymore.

Did you hear about the insurrection?

I overheard my master talking.

A paper was found in the chief traitor's house.

What?

Hey, I need some chopsticks! Where did this broad go?

So Cha-dol drove his real father to the netherworld?

What cruel fate...

It's all my doing...

They still haven't found his son.

And they looked into it.

There was no chest found in Yi Won-ho's house.

There was nothing.

That's strange. How did that chest disappear?

The best marksman in all of Joseon misses.

Let's call it a day.

He's about nine and about this tall...

Have you seen such a boy?

No.

Beat it. This isn't for kids.

They're going to desecrate the corpse.

Desecrate it...?

You know...

Split it in half!

How horrifying...

Execute!

Pull harder!

Mother...

Sister...

I will never forget...

Who's there?

Su-mak.

What?

You're the jerk who pushed my sister!

About that...

Wait.

You're being chased?

Over here...

Save me.

I don't know what's going on,

but you deserve a lesson.

You can have this.

This looks cool.

Is this valuable?

Yes, very expensive.

Really?

Father...

Have some.

What's wrong with him?

He ate some old food.

But I eat it all the time.

He's a nobleman.

He's never eaten stuff like this.

Is he going to die?

I don't know.

I better get some medicine.

You have money?

I can sell this. He said it's expensive.

I want to go too.

You should stay. See if he wakes up.

No, I'm going too.

I'll be back soon.

I'll bring some of your favorite bran cake.

Really?

Where would a beggar get such a thing?

You stole it, didn't you?

It's mine.

My father gave it to me.

I thought it might belong to the boy you're looking for.

Just go to the beggars' dwelling under the bridge.

Such generosity...

Are you okay?

Where's your brother?

He went to get some medicine.

Medicine?

Yes, he's selling that thing

and buying me some bran cakes too.

That thing? The tiger claw?

How long has he been gone?

A while.

He said he'd be back soon. I'm starving.

Where are you going?

Don't go. I'm scared.

I'm not going. Don't go.

My brother's coming back with bran cakes.

Is Su-mak here? Where is he?

Don't look down.

Close your eyes and jump.

On the count of three.

Okay?

I'm scared.

I'm here. I'll protect you.

I'll never let you go.

One.

Two.

Three.

Let me live.

Let me live.

Let me live.

Let me live.

The boy fell off the cliff and died.

We killed the girl.

That's so like you, Yong-jae.

We brought the corpse as you asked.

Why the corpse?

Yi Won-ho may not be the sun

that the blind fortuneteller mentioned.

Yi Won-ho's son was with him at the time...

No...

Just in case, he wants to be prepared.

Disgusting...

Wait.

By any chance...

Aren't you the young master from the other day?

During the persimmon incident.

You have the wrong person...

Who was that traitorous nobleman that killed himself?

What was his name...? Yi Won-ho...?

Yi Won-ho?

My name is Yi Gyum.

Me?

My name is Yi Won-ho.

There must be a huge reward for catching a traitor's son.

So what's happened to Yi Won-ho's family?

His wife and daughter are imprisoned.

His son is dead.

Hot...

Oh, dear...

Are you okay?

Nanny!

Oh, no...

Yi Won-ho...?

Yes, he'd be the one.

I shouldn't have mentioned it in front of a child.

Are you okay? No burns?

What's the name of that bird?

Whistling bird.

Whistling bird?

It really sounds as if it is whistling.

But they have a really sad story.

Brother Sa-chun.

It's from Brother Yong-jae.

Sa-chun.

I'm done with this life.

I no longer want to slay women and children.

I'd rather go raise some pigs somewhere.

He thanks you for a job well done.

All I did was bury a phony blood pact.

You'll be working at the palace?

Yes.

Good, there is no finer swordsman than you

in all of Joseon.

Wait, I forgot about Yong-jae.

I heard that he just disappeared.

I bet it feels good to get that monkey off your back.

Let's go have a celebratory toast.

What happened?

Who did this? Who's the scoundrel?

I took in a boy of lowly birth out of pity.

Do you know what you just broke?

It's a treasure from the great Ming Empire!

I didn't do it. I swear.

Why, you!

How dare you talk back!

My son Si-won saw you break it and run!

I know nothing of this!

Why, you insolent...

How dare you glare back at me!

Why, I should just...

Maybe the child didn't break it after all.

Who else besides this scoundrel would do this in my home?

Please take a look.

You can see blood stains.

And?

Whoever broke it must've gotten a cut.

Yet, there are no cuts on my hands.

Excuse yourself for now. I have a guest.

He has such a cold gaze for a child.

Who is he?

My son.

Wait, if it's not him, then who...?

Who is that?

I don't know. He's got an air about him though.

A soldier has caught a boy resembling Yi Gyum.

What?

Didn't Yi Won-ho's son die?

That's the word. What should we do?

Double-check.

I've seen that nobleman's son before.

Scoundrel! What are you doing eavesdropping?

You know that child, Young Master?

Yes.

I met him recently.

So you could confirm his identity for us?

Yes.

Bring out the traitors' families from the magistrate's building.

Make sure they pass through the marketplace.

Stop.

Stop!

Are you Yi Won-ho's wife?

That I am...

Is she your mother?

You wretch!

What did you do to my son Gyum?

You didn't kill the little thing...

Who are you?

Did you kill my son?

Die!

Die!

Is that boy the one?

That boy...

She must be crazy.

Take her away.

Stop.

That woman is a traitor. You know what to do.

Gyum, please throw it.

Your mother will be fine.

That boy...

He is...

He's not Yi Won-ho's son.

Are you sure?

Yes, I remember clearly.

I'm certain he's not the one.

Young Master, it's just as I told you.

I would repay you one day.

Let him go.

Gyum, my precious child...

Dear child...

Are you awake? Are you okay?

Father?

Mother?

Don't worry. He should be okay.

Take care, sir.

The doctor said that because of the shock,

he may not remember anything.

Maybe for the rest of his life.

He's seen the kind of thing a child can't handle.

Well, now that things have come to this...

Let's raise him even if just for a while.

No.

I can't do that.

Then why did you bring him here?

It was just that he was...

Let's raise him, please.

In a way, that boy ended up that way because of me.

What do you mean?

Anyway, let's just raise the child.

No!

How do you expect me to raise Yi Won-ho's son?

Please, just this once.

I saved your life and I raised Cha-dol as my own.

So just do me this one favor.

Dear...

What shall we name him?

How about Dog-poop...?

You know that saying about

a dragon rising up from dog poop?

You've never heard that?

A dragon rises from dog poop.

So what it means is that even from dog poop,

once in a while...

If you don't like Dog-poop, how about Yong?

Yong, that has a nice ring to it.

Does she not like it? I really like it.

Hey, Yong!

Yong, you scoundrel!

Yong!

Yong, you're up.

You don't remember? Yong is your name.

My name is Swe-dol. Your mother's name is Dan-yi.

We're a family.

Always have been. Okay?

That's my boy.

How's the little girl?

She's doing well. She's a quick study.

Take good care of the poor thing.

Of course. That goes without saying.

I'll bring you more soup. One second.

That little girl is our fortune!

Are we raising her?

Are you crazy?

Park wants to buy her. For 50 coins!

Park?

The old man who could pass on any day?

They say sleeping with a young girl can cure any disease.

Sick old man. How long can he live?

Su-mak...

Su-mak...

Su-mak...

Go back.

Go!

Go live with that lady!

I'm scared. I don't want to be sold.

13 YEARS LATER

There are laws, and you try to act as if you're a nobleman?

A lowlife like you doesn't deserve to go to school with us.

You better not come by the school again.

Got that?

Let's go.

Gyum.

Even if something happens to me, you must live.

Promise me that you'll live.

Man...

Not even a rat...

What's that? A person...?

Father...

Mother...

Your boy Gyum is not going to die.

Gyum...?

So he'd be that...?

Yes, he was alive after all.

Are you awake?

You almost froze to death.

This should warm you up.

So who are you...?

I'm Yong from the south side.

Anyway, thank you.

By the way...

I'm a hunter.

I came to check on the trap.

And I got myself a huge catch.

What did you catch?

A boar? A tiger?

I want to see.

Yong...?

My behind.

You called yourself Gyum with your own mouth.

Yi Gyum, the traitor's son.

You miserable wretch. Get yourself to school!

I'm not going...

What's that?

Your father's breaking his back to send you to school.

And you're kicking back?

Get up!

I'm up!

Stop torturing me.

I'm not going.

Mother, I'm not going to school.

What's the use of someone like me taking the civil exam?

Get away. You're ruining my breakfast.

Mother, you act as if you found me under a bridge.

Anyway, what do I do to entertain myself?

Let's play.

Hey, beat it!

These derelicts show up whoever I dress up...

Cramping my style...

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Miserable creature, would you like to experience paradise?

I've got some killer stuff.

Killer stuff?

The latest!

Uncensored!

Hot stuff!

Hot...?

I reeled in one sucker.

You have a delivery. Lady Kim.

Got it, you little brat.

This humble monk excuses himself.

Where are you going?

Hey, mister!

Mister!

Erotic picture book?

One with stories are popular.

Forget all that. Just whatever's naughty.

The final episode of the "Noblewoman" series.

"Why Does She Give Extra Food to Servant Dol-swe?"

Dol-swe's got good technique.

You've read it?

Gang-swe may be buff, but he gets kicked out.

Okay then...

"Wife Goes to Till the Soil and Comes Back with a Dirty Back."

Let me tell you about me.

I learned to read with the four erotic classics.

Don't try to sell me these one-hit wonders.

Fine, how about this?

The erotic masterpiece.

Limited edition. Only 300 in print.

"Sleepy and Horny"?

It's a twist on the story of two sisters who like to sleep.

But once they come to a sexual awakening...

The guys won't let them just sleep.

This is killer stuff...

Hey, what's going on...?

Can't look for free. Pay up.

With what money?

What is it?

I thought it was food. Go feed the goats with it.

Hey.

Man can't live on rice alone.

I eat rice cakes too.

You're so bad.

This will make you forget about food.

I'll show you real pleasure.

Killer, isn't it?

Hey, you take it well.

You always act so innocent though.

What's with these pictures?

They're dead.

You want to buy dishes?

Stop touching that stuff.

You're going to wear it out.

What is it? Pig intestines?

It's a glove.

A glove?

This tiny thing isn't going to fit my hands...

It's not for your hands.

A magic glove that will prevent pregnancies.

One glove.

It's so neat.

We all better get one.

The leather ones are almost sold out.

Oh?

Can I help...

Here you are.

I've been looking for you.

Come on in!

Hey, you should be cooking at home!

We're missing a trinket.

They sure are fast.

Father. Go find it.

I don't know who took it.

Fine, you brat.

If you don't find it, there's no dinner.

Do you even know how much it costs to rent this spot?

So why did you have to bother a sleeping tiger?

"Sleepy and Horny"?

There's nothing horny about it!

You're cramping my style.

You call this an erotic picture book?

It is a picture book.

Look at all these voluptuous flowers.

Cut the chatter, and fork it over.

No refund.

You can take this instead.

It's only for the top customers.

What is it?

Made with the essence of a virgin male

and the extracts of a carp.

Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of China, took this...

And then did it with twenty courtesans...

Twenty...?

Maybe I'll take this...

It'll cost you five more coins.

Five more? Forget it.

Fine, the deal's off.

Hey!

Give me my money!

Over my dead body!

Why, I should just...

Who the heck...

It's your father. What are you going to do?

Father...

This sure doesn't look like school to me.

You're going to rip my ear off!

You better come with me.

Father...

I don't want to go to school.

Why, I should crush that melon of yours...

You better come.

Actually...

I wanted to get this for you.

What is it?

He's alive?

Yes, a hunter ran into him recently.

That can't be.

I know. The child died 13 years ago.

But Lord Sim apparently talked to the hunter himself.

We must find him first.

And when we do?

Kill him without a trace.

Yes, sir.

What this means is that...

I'm sorry, Teacher. My son is late.

Hello, Swe-dol.

Swe-dol, just the man I wanted to see.

Come see me for one second.

Study on your own.

I really didn't want to come.

But my silly father insisted. I'll excuse myself now.

Are you trying to toy with me?

I already warned you once to stay out of my sight.

How dare you look at me with that gaze!

Subtitles by K B F D

Are you Yi Won-ho's son Yi Gyum?

Yong hasn't been back since.

Give me my money!

You took it back.

Must've fallen for those eyes.

I'm scared...

You should never look after another human being.

Father...
