00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,000
CAPTIVATING THE KING

2
00:00:13,408 --> 00:00:17,996
EPISODE 2

3
00:00:25,712 --> 00:00:26,755
That is enough.

4
00:00:44,022 --> 00:00:45,065
My lord?

5
00:00:47,818 --> 00:00:49,194
How is he?

6
00:00:49,277 --> 00:00:50,153
Did the physician come?

7
00:00:50,237 --> 00:00:51,238
What does he say?

8
00:00:51,738 --> 00:00:53,490
His Highness did not want a physician,

9
00:00:53,573 --> 00:00:55,534
so I did not call for one.

10
00:00:55,617 --> 00:00:56,743
Why not?

11
00:00:57,244 --> 00:00:58,870
He bled a lot.

12
00:01:00,163 --> 00:01:02,082
He said the blade fortunately
did not reach his bones.

13
00:01:02,165 --> 00:01:04,459
And as he had many such wounds before,

14
00:01:04,543 --> 00:01:06,294
he knew how to care for them.

15
00:01:06,378 --> 00:01:07,963
He told me not to worry.

16
00:01:12,217 --> 00:01:14,135
His Highness wishes to see you.

17
00:01:14,219 --> 00:01:15,804
What do you want to do?

18
00:01:30,527 --> 00:01:31,695
Your Highness.

19
00:02:23,830 --> 00:02:25,040
Your Highness?

20
00:02:36,009 --> 00:02:37,177
Your Highness.

21
00:02:42,182 --> 00:02:43,391
Goodness.

22
00:02:45,268 --> 00:02:47,812
Why are you running away
when you are here to see me?

23
00:02:49,272 --> 00:02:50,148
Have you perhaps…

24
00:02:51,441 --> 00:02:53,526
done wrong without my knowing?

25
00:02:58,323 --> 00:03:00,158
Please do not accuse me of running away.

26
00:03:01,284 --> 00:03:04,204
I only tried to leave
as I had thought you were asleep.

27
00:03:06,706 --> 00:03:07,624
Is that right?

28
00:03:08,583 --> 00:03:09,584
Yes.

29
00:03:15,799 --> 00:03:19,177
Are you certain
you do not want to see a physician?

30
00:03:19,803 --> 00:03:22,430
Even a physician cannot do much
for a wound like this.

31
00:03:23,056 --> 00:03:26,268
It will heal after a few days of rest.

32
00:03:30,355 --> 00:03:32,691
I caused you unnecessary suffering,
Your Highness.

33
00:03:32,774 --> 00:03:34,317
It is not your fault.

34
00:03:35,485 --> 00:03:37,862
It is all on him. That contemptible man.

35
00:03:41,741 --> 00:03:43,285
I will leave you to rest.

36
00:03:45,704 --> 00:03:47,664
Your Highness, could you please…

37
00:03:56,339 --> 00:03:58,383
I know a way

38
00:03:59,384 --> 00:04:00,677
that will relieve me of this pain.

39
00:04:02,137 --> 00:04:04,139
What is it?

40
00:04:05,223 --> 00:04:06,308
A round of <i>baduk</i>.

41
00:04:08,059 --> 00:04:09,060
Sorry?

42
00:04:09,561 --> 00:04:10,812
Are you serious?

43
00:04:12,439 --> 00:04:14,107
Of course, I am.

44
00:04:16,026 --> 00:04:19,404
When Guan Yu was treated by Hua Tuo
after being struck by a poisoned arrow,

45
00:04:19,487 --> 00:04:21,948
he overcame his pain by playing <i>baduk</i>.

46
00:04:28,872 --> 00:04:31,541
How baffling. Why are you so hesitant?

47
00:04:31,624 --> 00:04:33,418
When we were at the valley,

48
00:04:33,501 --> 00:04:36,921
you distinctly said you wanted to
play against me if you had the chance.

49
00:04:39,758 --> 00:04:40,633
Back then…

50
00:04:43,803 --> 00:04:45,388
<i>I did not know you</i>

51
00:04:46,181 --> 00:04:47,432
<i>as I do now.</i>

52
00:04:49,392 --> 00:04:51,603
What about back then?
Finish your sentence.

53
00:04:55,482 --> 00:04:56,816
As you may be aware,

54
00:04:57,567 --> 00:04:59,486
I only play <i>baduk</i> when there is a bet.

55
00:05:05,158 --> 00:05:06,993
I did not bring my <i>baduk</i> table,

56
00:05:07,077 --> 00:05:08,536
so I will bet what you want.

57
00:05:08,620 --> 00:05:09,829
What is it?

58
00:05:10,580 --> 00:05:13,416
I will let you know upon winning the game.

59
00:05:19,339 --> 00:05:20,381
Help me up.

60
00:05:28,139 --> 00:05:29,224
How heartless.

61
00:07:36,935 --> 00:07:38,520
You have won by one <i>jip</i>.

62
00:07:41,105 --> 00:07:42,774
What is it that you want?

63
00:07:54,202 --> 00:07:55,954
It is raining.

64
00:08:00,583 --> 00:08:02,252
<i>Mongwoo</i>, at long last.

65
00:08:03,753 --> 00:08:04,796
"<i>Mongwoo</i>"?

66
00:08:05,380 --> 00:08:07,840
It is a fine shower
that sprinkles densely like a haze.

67
00:08:08,967 --> 00:08:10,718
It is also a nickname that I treasure.

68
00:08:18,017 --> 00:08:20,228
I have thought of what I want.

69
00:08:40,415 --> 00:08:42,875
Please write my nickname here.

70
00:08:50,300 --> 00:08:51,551
What is your nickname?

71
00:08:55,179 --> 00:08:56,347
It is Mongwoo.

72
00:08:57,890 --> 00:09:00,393
This will be the prize of our bet.

73
00:09:03,438 --> 00:09:05,565
And you choose
not to share your real name?

74
00:09:11,487 --> 00:09:12,905
Suit yourself.

75
00:09:29,881 --> 00:09:31,549
MONGWOO

76
00:09:31,633 --> 00:09:32,467
There.

77
00:09:33,426 --> 00:09:34,594
From now on,

78
00:09:36,262 --> 00:09:37,430
you are Mongwoo.

79
00:09:41,017 --> 00:09:42,352
My <i>manghyeongjiu</i>,

80
00:09:43,603 --> 00:09:44,604
Mongwoo.

81
00:09:44,687 --> 00:09:46,481
MANGHYEONGJIU: FRIENDS
WHO SHARE A CROSS-CLASS BOND

82
00:09:47,732 --> 00:09:49,359
Had you asked for more,

83
00:09:49,442 --> 00:09:51,402
such as treasures and gold,

84
00:09:52,654 --> 00:09:54,155
I would have gladly given them to you.

85
00:09:57,325 --> 00:09:58,993
You have made a big mistake.

86
00:10:22,517 --> 00:10:24,060
Will you just keep staring at it?

87
00:10:53,256 --> 00:10:54,424
Help me with that too.

88
00:11:32,587 --> 00:11:33,713
And my tassel belt.

89
00:12:14,545 --> 00:12:15,379
That one as well.

90
00:12:47,703 --> 00:12:50,498
I finally see through you.

91
00:12:55,211 --> 00:12:57,046
Seeing as you have beautiful hands

92
00:12:58,089 --> 00:13:01,050
and cannot even tie a hat on properly,

93
00:13:02,843 --> 00:13:04,512
you were born into a wealthy family

94
00:13:05,513 --> 00:13:07,723
and had servants attend to you
at all times.

95
00:13:08,307 --> 00:13:09,267
Is it not true?

96
00:13:15,273 --> 00:13:16,857
You are all set, Your Highness.

97
00:13:18,693 --> 00:13:20,194
When can I see you again?

98
00:13:22,196 --> 00:13:23,197
Sorry?

99
00:13:23,906 --> 00:13:25,700
- That is…
- Right.

100
00:13:25,783 --> 00:13:29,161
You said though you love to win,
you cannot put up with boredom.

101
00:13:29,245 --> 00:13:30,413
Now that you have won,

102
00:13:30,496 --> 00:13:32,415
am I just another boring opponent to you?

103
00:13:37,086 --> 00:13:38,462
When there is another <i>mongwoo</i>,

104
00:13:39,672 --> 00:13:41,674
I shall give you a chance
to redeem yourself.

105
00:13:45,261 --> 00:13:46,304
Fine then.

106
00:13:47,263 --> 00:13:48,598
When <i>mongwoo</i> falls,

107
00:13:49,599 --> 00:13:51,309
let us meet here again.

108
00:14:28,012 --> 00:14:29,055
Your Highness.

109
00:14:31,849 --> 00:14:34,894
You seem cheerful
for someone who shed blood today.

110
00:14:36,771 --> 00:14:38,814
It must be because of Mongwoo.

111
00:14:38,898 --> 00:14:41,150
Are you talking about the rain,
Your Highness?

112
00:14:41,776 --> 00:14:42,693
No.

113
00:14:43,194 --> 00:14:46,238
Not this one, but Mongwoo from earlier.

114
00:14:47,031 --> 00:14:49,575
He did not tell me his name,
so I gave him one.

115
00:14:50,076 --> 00:14:52,078
How dare he not disclose his name?

116
00:14:52,161 --> 00:14:53,496
I shall teach him a lesson.

117
00:14:53,579 --> 00:14:54,664
No need.

118
00:14:55,581 --> 00:14:58,000
He is not someone
who will be taught a lesson easily.

119
00:14:59,418 --> 00:15:03,047
He has a silver tongue and a big heart.

120
00:15:04,006 --> 00:15:05,633
He will end up giving <i>you</i> a lesson.

121
00:15:08,427 --> 00:15:09,720
Shall we return home?

122
00:15:11,305 --> 00:15:13,808
No. I must stop by somewhere.

123
00:15:23,150 --> 00:15:24,735
Did the game just finish?

124
00:15:25,653 --> 00:15:26,654
Yes.

125
00:15:28,698 --> 00:15:30,533
Did you come by during the game?

126
00:15:30,616 --> 00:15:34,620
I came by several times
while you two were playing.

127
00:15:34,704 --> 00:15:36,163
Did you not notice?

128
00:15:37,707 --> 00:15:39,291
I had no idea.

129
00:15:43,379 --> 00:15:44,380
"Mongwoo"?

130
00:15:45,006 --> 00:15:46,966
It is a nickname His Highness treasures.

131
00:15:47,591 --> 00:15:48,592
He gave it to me.

132
00:15:50,011 --> 00:15:51,679
Does that mean you won again?

133
00:15:53,180 --> 00:15:54,181
Yes.

134
00:15:56,434 --> 00:15:58,019
No. Actually,

135
00:15:58,728 --> 00:16:00,187
I did not.

136
00:16:01,689 --> 00:16:03,232
But I acted like I did.

137
00:16:04,191 --> 00:16:06,193
I could not say I lost.

138
00:16:07,945 --> 00:16:10,573
It is my first time
hearing of you losing, my lady.

139
00:16:11,198 --> 00:16:12,533
It <i>is</i> my first time losing.

140
00:16:13,117 --> 00:16:15,036
Except when I was learning from my father.

141
00:16:16,412 --> 00:16:20,207
But why do you say
you could not say that you lost?

142
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:24,628
I am not sure.

143
00:16:25,296 --> 00:16:26,839
I suppose I did not want to lose.

144
00:16:30,384 --> 00:16:31,427
No.

145
00:16:32,219 --> 00:16:33,637
That is not it.

146
00:16:38,434 --> 00:16:39,268
My lady.

147
00:16:40,186 --> 00:16:41,437
Are you all right?

148
00:16:44,482 --> 00:16:45,649
What is wrong with me?

149
00:16:46,317 --> 00:16:48,486
My heart is racing.

150
00:16:50,112 --> 00:16:52,656
I must have been shocked
to see His Highness's get hurt.

151
00:16:52,740 --> 00:16:54,950
I feel feverish,
and my cheeks are burning.

152
00:16:56,410 --> 00:16:57,244
Right?

153
00:17:04,376 --> 00:17:05,461
It seems like

154
00:17:06,045 --> 00:17:08,005
you have fallen for His Highness.

155
00:17:09,799 --> 00:17:11,342
What does that mean?

156
00:17:13,427 --> 00:17:16,430
It means developing feelings for someone
and ending up loving them.

157
00:17:18,432 --> 00:17:19,391
Love?

158
00:17:21,811 --> 00:17:24,188
That is not the case.
I am still shaken, that is all.

159
00:17:24,939 --> 00:17:27,274
This must be why people meddle.

160
00:17:27,358 --> 00:17:31,654
Players may be oblivious to the plays
that are obvious to the onlookers.

161
00:17:35,366 --> 00:17:36,408
Have I truly

162
00:17:36,992 --> 00:17:38,994
fallen for His Highness?

163
00:17:45,017 --> 00:17:46,101
Who is it?

164
00:17:46,810 --> 00:17:50,272
Who are you to wander around
the Minister of War's house so late?

165
00:17:57,029 --> 00:17:59,239
I did not recognize you
and spoke out of turn, Your Highness.

166
00:17:59,781 --> 00:18:00,866
Please forgive me.

167
00:18:00,949 --> 00:18:01,992
No need to apologize.

168
00:18:03,035 --> 00:18:05,621
I am to blame for visiting
without sending word first.

169
00:18:07,831 --> 00:18:09,249
My name is Kim Myung-ha.

170
00:18:09,333 --> 00:18:11,293
The Minister of War is my father.

171
00:18:13,795 --> 00:18:16,840
I have come to speak with your father.

172
00:18:16,924 --> 00:18:18,175
I see.

173
00:18:18,258 --> 00:18:19,468
Please follow me inside.

174
00:18:21,094 --> 00:18:24,806
Your men injured Grand Prince Jinhan?

175
00:18:25,807 --> 00:18:28,894
Do you mean they made him bleed?

176
00:18:30,812 --> 00:18:33,398
My men's intent was to catch
and question a <i>baduk</i> gambler

177
00:18:33,482 --> 00:18:35,233
under the Grand Prince's patronage.

178
00:18:35,901 --> 00:18:38,612
But they were caught in the act
by the Grand Prince himself,

179
00:18:39,446 --> 00:18:40,948
leading to the accident.

180
00:18:45,452 --> 00:18:47,371
Just how incompetent are you?

181
00:18:47,955 --> 00:18:48,997
I apologize, my lord.

182
00:18:50,832 --> 00:18:52,084
What shall I do?

183
00:18:52,167 --> 00:18:53,335
What else is there to do?

184
00:18:54,461 --> 00:18:57,005
Exile your men out of the capital.

185
00:18:59,424 --> 00:19:03,637
Though the Grand Prince
has earned His Majesty's ire,

186
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:05,180
he is still of the royal family

187
00:19:05,847 --> 00:19:07,474
and the son of the Queen Dowager.

188
00:19:07,975 --> 00:19:10,560
Would exiling them be enough?

189
00:19:11,311 --> 00:19:14,147
In the case that the Grand Prince
decides to punish me,

190
00:19:14,231 --> 00:19:19,277
not only you but even Her Majesty
may suffer consequences.

191
00:19:21,029 --> 00:19:22,030
Shut your mouth.

192
00:19:22,531 --> 00:19:24,908
Who are you to threaten me?

193
00:19:25,575 --> 00:19:26,618
My apologies, my lord.

194
00:19:27,536 --> 00:19:29,371
Father, it is me, Myung-ha.

195
00:19:33,750 --> 00:19:36,420
You may enter.

196
00:19:47,723 --> 00:19:48,598
Father.

197
00:19:48,682 --> 00:19:50,726
Grand Prince Jinhan is here.

198
00:20:19,171 --> 00:20:20,338
Your Highness.

199
00:20:21,631 --> 00:20:24,551
What brings you to this humble place?

200
00:20:26,011 --> 00:20:28,513
How do you call
such a massive residence a humble place?

201
00:20:29,181 --> 00:20:30,891
You are excessively modest.

202
00:20:33,852 --> 00:20:35,937
I only spoke as such

203
00:20:36,438 --> 00:20:38,190
because for someone like you,

204
00:20:38,273 --> 00:20:41,359
who frequented the Qing's Imperial Palace
as Prince Rui's favorite,

205
00:20:42,277 --> 00:20:46,990
even such a residence
would appear too small and shabby.

206
00:20:47,783 --> 00:20:52,204
Are you admitting that you believe
in the vile rumors that are going around?

207
00:20:52,287 --> 00:20:53,413
Or…

208
00:20:54,664 --> 00:20:57,542
are you trying to cover
for the sins of the man hiding inside

209
00:20:58,502 --> 00:20:59,878
by being disrespectful?

210
00:21:01,546 --> 00:21:03,090
A man hiding?

211
00:21:04,466 --> 00:21:07,594
I do not understand
what you are saying, Your Highness.

212
00:21:12,182 --> 00:21:13,266
Your Highness!

213
00:21:13,975 --> 00:21:15,268
The incident earlier

214
00:21:15,352 --> 00:21:17,979
was carried out by my men
without my knowledge.

215
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,440
Though I did not conduct the doing myself,

216
00:21:20,982 --> 00:21:22,359
my negligence is partly to blame.

217
00:21:22,442 --> 00:21:24,361
Please show me mercy,

218
00:21:24,861 --> 00:21:28,156
and I will see to it
that they are punished, Your Highness.

219
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:29,199
How interesting.

220
00:21:30,617 --> 00:21:34,079
If you believe so, why are you here
instead of the State Tribunal?

221
00:21:35,455 --> 00:21:36,498
That is because

222
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,543
I wanted to seek Minister Kim's counsel

223
00:21:39,626 --> 00:21:42,504
on how best to report my faults to you,
Your Highness.

224
00:21:42,587 --> 00:21:45,340
Please do not misunderstand.

225
00:21:45,423 --> 00:21:46,925
You call that an excuse?

226
00:21:47,008 --> 00:21:47,926
Myung-ha.

227
00:21:49,511 --> 00:21:50,929
Do not interfere.

228
00:21:51,012 --> 00:21:53,723
His Highness is questioning him.

229
00:21:55,141 --> 00:21:56,685
I apologize, Your Highness.

230
00:21:56,768 --> 00:21:57,978
Minister Kim.

231
00:22:00,063 --> 00:22:01,022
Yes, Your Highness.

232
00:22:01,815 --> 00:22:03,358
Please speak.

233
00:22:08,655 --> 00:22:10,615
I am not here to threaten you

234
00:22:10,699 --> 00:22:12,826
by using the misdeed
committed by Yoo Hyun-bo.

235
00:22:13,952 --> 00:22:16,288
I simply came by to converse with you.

236
00:22:25,088 --> 00:22:26,590
Please come inside.

237
00:22:36,641 --> 00:22:40,478
Tell me the true motive
behind your visit tonight.

238
00:22:42,355 --> 00:22:43,398
I…

239
00:22:44,816 --> 00:22:48,028
wish to become
the most loyal subject of His Majesty.

240
00:22:48,528 --> 00:22:52,532
I am confident that my loyalty
is unmatched by all others.

241
00:22:53,116 --> 00:22:56,244
So do not think that I covet
the title of the Crown Prince.

242
00:22:57,913 --> 00:23:01,124
You are here to warn me
to stop doubting your intentions

243
00:23:02,208 --> 00:23:03,835
and being wary of you.

244
00:23:04,419 --> 00:23:07,047
I am more than willing
to bear with your wariness.

245
00:23:07,130 --> 00:23:09,132
I do not doubt for one second

246
00:23:09,215 --> 00:23:12,052
that such action is born
out of your loyalty to His Majesty.

247
00:23:13,803 --> 00:23:15,764
However, subjecting innocent people

248
00:23:15,847 --> 00:23:19,726
to the same suspicion and persecution
for their acquaintance with me

249
00:23:20,727 --> 00:23:22,479
is simply unacceptable.

250
00:23:23,605 --> 00:23:25,357
They are also His Majesty's people

251
00:23:25,941 --> 00:23:27,859
and those you must protect.

252
00:23:29,736 --> 00:23:32,155
It is truly a shame that I am the only one

253
00:23:32,697 --> 00:23:35,450
who gets to hear
such a reasonable and just speech.

254
00:23:41,373 --> 00:23:42,374
Do you have

255
00:23:42,999 --> 00:23:44,668
anything more to say?

256
00:23:47,963 --> 00:23:49,798
I hear an envoy from the Great Qing
will arrive soon.

257
00:23:50,632 --> 00:23:54,594
They will want a definitive answer
on the issue of conscription.

258
00:23:54,678 --> 00:23:56,638
If there is anything I can help you with,

259
00:23:56,721 --> 00:23:58,014
do not hesitate to tell me.

260
00:23:58,098 --> 00:23:59,891
I shall help to the best of my ability.

261
00:23:59,975 --> 00:24:01,059
Of course, Your Highness.

262
00:24:01,142 --> 00:24:02,602
When the envoy arrives,

263
00:24:03,645 --> 00:24:04,813
I shall make sure

264
00:24:06,106 --> 00:24:07,649
to ask for your advice.

265
00:24:10,694 --> 00:24:12,487
I am truly grateful

266
00:24:14,739 --> 00:24:15,824
for your understanding.

267
00:24:30,088 --> 00:24:31,089
Who is it?

268
00:24:40,724 --> 00:24:42,475
Do you have more to say?

269
00:24:45,228 --> 00:24:48,940
I was waiting
as you have not forgiven me yet.

270
00:24:49,941 --> 00:24:53,111
Please forgive me for my mistakes.

271
00:24:54,362 --> 00:24:55,989
Do not seek forgiveness from me

272
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,701
but from the <i>baduk</i> gambler
and your sister.

273
00:25:00,535 --> 00:25:01,995
I shall forgive you

274
00:25:02,662 --> 00:25:04,289
once they have done so.

275
00:25:05,290 --> 00:25:06,416
You may leave.

276
00:25:21,222 --> 00:25:22,557
His words are all lies.

277
00:25:23,141 --> 00:25:25,018
He must have given an order
with ill intent.

278
00:25:25,101 --> 00:25:26,519
I am well aware.

279
00:25:27,187 --> 00:25:28,563
But to punish him,

280
00:25:29,105 --> 00:25:30,690
I must be prepared to go against

281
00:25:30,774 --> 00:25:33,735
Minister Kim
and those who are behind his back.

282
00:25:35,445 --> 00:25:36,946
I cannot do that.

283
00:25:47,791 --> 00:25:51,252
Ask for forgiveness to those lowly brats?

284
00:25:53,129 --> 00:25:54,881
Who does he think I am?

285
00:25:57,967 --> 00:25:59,135
Man-bok.

286
00:26:00,095 --> 00:26:01,763
Yes, my lord.

287
00:26:02,263 --> 00:26:06,518
Do you want to live to a ripe old age
with all your limbs intact?

288
00:26:07,185 --> 00:26:11,773
Or do you want to die a horrible death
with all your limbs cut off?

289
00:26:11,856 --> 00:26:13,358
I want to live, my lord.

290
00:26:13,441 --> 00:26:14,400
Then…

291
00:26:15,026 --> 00:26:18,947
keep an eye on
Hongjang's courtesan house at all times.

292
00:26:19,697 --> 00:26:23,243
Report to me all the comings and goings,

293
00:26:23,326 --> 00:26:25,578
including Grand Prince Jinhan,
that <i>baduk</i> gambler,

294
00:26:26,830 --> 00:26:29,707
and any of Hongjang's guests.

295
00:26:29,791 --> 00:26:31,543
- Do you understand?
- Yes, my lord.

296
00:26:43,972 --> 00:26:45,056
Your Highness!

297
00:26:46,599 --> 00:26:47,642
Your Highness.

298
00:26:48,685 --> 00:26:51,062
Why are you calling me in such a hurry?

299
00:26:51,146 --> 00:26:52,939
Her Royal Highness
has summoned you to the palace

300
00:26:53,022 --> 00:26:55,191
as His Majesty is gravely ill.

301
00:27:10,415 --> 00:27:12,625
- Uncle.
- Princess Jangryeong.

302
00:27:14,377 --> 00:27:16,087
It has been far too long.

303
00:27:21,759 --> 00:27:24,179
Uncle, what is happening?

304
00:27:24,762 --> 00:27:27,891
His Majesty has been showing symptoms
of acute gastroenteritis since dawn.

305
00:27:27,974 --> 00:27:31,060
He is refusing to receive treatment
or grant an audience.

306
00:27:31,144 --> 00:27:33,688
We are all waiting helplessly.

307
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,445
I shall go inside with the medicine,
so report to His Majesty immediately.

308
00:27:42,697 --> 00:27:44,657
Why are you just standing there?

309
00:27:44,741 --> 00:27:45,658
Your Majesty.

310
00:27:47,493 --> 00:27:48,620
Please calm down.

311
00:27:49,454 --> 00:27:52,790
The King has decreed that only
Senior Court Lady Dong may enter.

312
00:27:54,375 --> 00:27:55,210
I have

313
00:27:56,294 --> 00:27:58,504
long wondered about this matter

314
00:27:58,588 --> 00:28:01,799
ever since you sent her
to be His Majesty's senior court lady.

315
00:28:01,883 --> 00:28:02,800
What purpose…

316
00:28:05,011 --> 00:28:06,846
does Court Lady Dong serve?

317
00:28:08,264 --> 00:28:10,683
How come you always side with her?

318
00:28:10,767 --> 00:28:11,768
Your Majesty.

319
00:28:13,645 --> 00:28:16,481
How dare you disrespect and question me?

320
00:28:18,608 --> 00:28:21,152
You should be on the floor
begging for forgiveness

321
00:28:21,236 --> 00:28:23,112
for failing to keep
His Majesty in good health.

322
00:28:23,821 --> 00:28:25,573
Your insolence is unacceptable.

323
00:28:25,657 --> 00:28:27,742
Must I remove you
from His Majesty's quarters with force

324
00:28:27,825 --> 00:28:29,494
to have you come to your senses?

325
00:28:31,746 --> 00:28:32,997
Go ahead and try.

326
00:28:34,332 --> 00:28:38,044
You will never be able to
unless you kill me.

327
00:28:38,545 --> 00:28:41,005
Do you truly wish to be expelled

328
00:28:42,048 --> 00:28:43,633
for disrespect and disloyalty?

329
00:28:45,510 --> 00:28:46,719
Mother.

330
00:28:54,394 --> 00:28:56,271
You are here, Grand Prince Jinhan.

331
00:28:57,772 --> 00:28:59,607
I will go in and meet His Majesty.

332
00:28:59,691 --> 00:29:00,567
Report to him.

333
00:29:01,442 --> 00:29:02,694
Your Majesty.

334
00:29:03,278 --> 00:29:05,655
Grand Prince Jinhan has come.

335
00:29:09,993 --> 00:29:11,327
Let him in.

336
00:29:39,522 --> 00:29:41,107
Your Majesty, it is Jinhan.

337
00:29:42,150 --> 00:29:43,568
There you are.

338
00:29:44,902 --> 00:29:48,573
I was not aware of your condition.
I apologize for not coming faster.

339
00:29:50,325 --> 00:29:51,576
Do not worry.

340
00:29:52,076 --> 00:29:55,955
Your loyalty will not be measured
based on how quickly you came.

341
00:29:56,789 --> 00:29:59,751
If in such order, the Queen Dowager

342
00:29:59,834 --> 00:30:02,920
and the Queen would be considered
the most loyal.

343
00:30:03,546 --> 00:30:06,299
However, the Queen Dowager
will have rushed here in joy,

344
00:30:06,382 --> 00:30:11,471
thinking that her nuisance of a stepson
is finally at death's door.

345
00:30:12,013 --> 00:30:14,932
And the Queen will have hurried here,

346
00:30:15,016 --> 00:30:18,269
worried that I may pass away

347
00:30:18,353 --> 00:30:21,481
before the Prince Royal
is appointed as the Crown Prince.

348
00:30:22,857 --> 00:30:24,067
Either way,

349
00:30:24,692 --> 00:30:27,528
they both want me to die

350
00:30:28,988 --> 00:30:31,074
and not survive the day.

351
00:30:32,408 --> 00:30:33,826
There is herbal medicine ready.

352
00:30:34,327 --> 00:30:37,038
I shall taste it before you take it,
so let them bring it in.

353
00:30:37,121 --> 00:30:39,499
What is the point?

354
00:30:39,582 --> 00:30:42,335
I will not be able to keep it down anyway!

355
00:30:42,418 --> 00:30:43,711
However, Your Majesty…

356
00:31:05,775 --> 00:31:07,443
Where do you stand?

357
00:31:10,446 --> 00:31:13,032
Do you wish for me to die

358
00:31:14,951 --> 00:31:16,911
or to live?

359
00:31:24,961 --> 00:31:26,045
I humbly wish

360
00:31:26,587 --> 00:31:28,005
that you would…

361
00:31:30,133 --> 00:31:33,678
recover your will and spirit

362
00:31:33,761 --> 00:31:36,097
to oversee all matters of state as before.

363
00:31:38,975 --> 00:31:43,312
How glib you are with your lies

364
00:31:44,981 --> 00:31:47,984
when you rushed here
only to receive my <i>yugyo</i>.

365
00:31:48,067 --> 00:31:49,569
YUGYO: THE KING'S LAST WORDS

366
00:32:17,597 --> 00:32:19,307
Bring in the herbal medicine.

367
00:32:21,893 --> 00:32:24,645
Grand Prince Jinhan will taste it.

368
00:32:26,564 --> 00:32:27,774
Yes, Your Majesty.

369
00:32:44,207 --> 00:32:45,917
His Majesty has finally realized

370
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,711
Grand Prince Jinhan's good intentions.

371
00:32:55,134 --> 00:32:56,719
By the way, Your Majesty.

372
00:32:59,555 --> 00:33:01,849
I did not send Court Lady Dong
to aid His Majesty.

373
00:33:03,017 --> 00:33:06,354
The King took her by force
to let his hatred toward me be known.

374
00:33:06,938 --> 00:33:08,773
I am saying that it was his doing.

375
00:33:08,856 --> 00:33:09,899
Do you understand?

376
00:33:19,325 --> 00:33:21,536
<i>Ever since Grand Prince Jinhan
tasted the herbal medicine,</i>

377
00:33:21,619 --> 00:33:24,539
His Majesty has been
treating him differently.

378
00:33:24,622 --> 00:33:27,625
The court officials who promised
to support the Prince Royal

379
00:33:27,708 --> 00:33:29,252
are also acting differently.

380
00:33:29,836 --> 00:33:31,170
What shall we do?

381
00:33:32,129 --> 00:33:33,297
Do not worry.

382
00:33:34,048 --> 00:33:36,467
Jung Je-pyo,
who is coming as the Qing's envoy,

383
00:33:36,551 --> 00:33:39,679
promised to support
the Prince Royal's appointment

384
00:33:39,762 --> 00:33:41,722
as the next Crown Prince.

385
00:33:42,306 --> 00:33:43,850
For him to hold sway,

386
00:33:43,933 --> 00:33:47,270
His Majesty must agree
to the conscription demand from the Qing.

387
00:33:47,353 --> 00:33:49,397
Do you think he will approve of it

388
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,440
against the disapproval of the court?

389
00:33:52,233 --> 00:33:54,569
Even if we have to go far
as to provoke His Majesty,

390
00:33:55,736 --> 00:33:57,655
we must make it happen.

391
00:33:59,490 --> 00:34:00,741
That cannot happen.

392
00:34:02,535 --> 00:34:05,705
The court officials and even the scholars

393
00:34:05,788 --> 00:34:07,540
will condemn me.

394
00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:09,166
Your Majesty.

395
00:34:10,167 --> 00:34:12,712
I am well aware of that.

396
00:34:13,337 --> 00:34:16,632
However, according to
what I heard from Interpreter Jung,

397
00:34:16,716 --> 00:34:19,719
the Qing's court has learned of your
hesitance to comply with conscription…

398
00:34:25,725 --> 00:34:28,269
and expressed their regrets

399
00:34:28,769 --> 00:34:31,564
for not replacing you
with Grand Prince Jinhan.

400
00:34:36,152 --> 00:34:37,320
Their court…

401
00:34:38,946 --> 00:34:42,450
had the idea of replacing me with Jinhan?

402
00:34:48,414 --> 00:34:49,415
Tell me.

403
00:34:50,541 --> 00:34:51,417
Who

404
00:34:52,376 --> 00:34:55,004
and during what event
did one voice such an idea?

405
00:34:57,256 --> 00:34:59,550
I did not hear it myself,

406
00:34:59,634 --> 00:35:01,886
- so I cannot be sure--
- How dare you share

407
00:35:01,969 --> 00:35:03,846
uncertain information with me!

408
00:35:06,849 --> 00:35:10,144
Do not try to breed enmity
between Jinhan and me without evidence!

409
00:35:10,227 --> 00:35:13,189
Attempting at a trick with an obvious lie

410
00:35:14,982 --> 00:35:17,318
is an insult to your sovereign.

411
00:35:22,782 --> 00:35:23,783
Your Majesty.

412
00:35:23,866 --> 00:35:25,660
If we refuse conscription again,

413
00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,872
the Great Qing will grow suspicious
that we are serving the Ming over them.

414
00:35:29,956 --> 00:35:32,750
This may give them a pretext
to wage another war.

415
00:35:32,833 --> 00:35:33,834
I am

416
00:35:35,044 --> 00:35:36,921
only afraid of such events.

417
00:35:37,546 --> 00:35:38,464
I beg

418
00:35:38,965 --> 00:35:41,133
for your understanding!

419
00:35:55,231 --> 00:35:57,108
How could he go behind our backs

420
00:35:57,191 --> 00:35:59,360
and get His Majesty's approval on his own?

421
00:35:59,944 --> 00:36:01,612
Minister Kim Jong-bae's abuse of power

422
00:36:01,696 --> 00:36:04,031
should not be overlooked.

423
00:36:04,115 --> 00:36:05,116
He is right.

424
00:36:05,199 --> 00:36:07,868
We must file a petition
for his dismissal immediately

425
00:36:07,952 --> 00:36:10,496
to express the court's opinion
on this matter to His Majesty.

426
00:36:10,579 --> 00:36:11,872
I agree.

427
00:36:11,956 --> 00:36:13,290
The Three Censorate Offices

428
00:36:13,374 --> 00:36:15,292
shall come together and file a petition.

429
00:36:15,876 --> 00:36:19,171
How come you are staying silent
on this matter, Chief State Councilor?

430
00:36:19,255 --> 00:36:22,133
Are you against filing the petition?

431
00:36:22,717 --> 00:36:24,301
That is not it.

432
00:36:25,261 --> 00:36:27,179
I am merely concerned about

433
00:36:27,263 --> 00:36:30,891
what the envoy will say upon learning
that the Minister of War,

434
00:36:30,975 --> 00:36:32,852
who was in charge of conscription,

435
00:36:32,935 --> 00:36:34,895
has been dismissed from office.

436
00:36:34,979 --> 00:36:37,064
If the Qing persecutes us regarding this,

437
00:36:37,606 --> 00:36:39,567
the Ming's envoy will praise us

438
00:36:39,650 --> 00:36:42,528
for upholding our duty to them
and maintaining order

439
00:36:42,611 --> 00:36:44,196
when he comes to visit again.

440
00:36:46,157 --> 00:36:49,285
What do you say, Principal Director?

441
00:36:49,368 --> 00:36:51,662
Come to me before you file the petition.

442
00:36:51,746 --> 00:36:54,206
I will be happy to sign my name.

443
00:36:54,832 --> 00:36:56,125
That is great.

444
00:36:56,208 --> 00:36:59,128
Then let us go draft our petition.

445
00:36:59,211 --> 00:37:00,963
- Let us go.
- Let us go.

446
00:37:15,561 --> 00:37:16,604
Lord Kang.

447
00:37:17,605 --> 00:37:20,858
Do you think His Majesty
will grant the petition?

448
00:37:22,777 --> 00:37:25,321
Are you referring
to Kim Jong-bae's dismissal?

449
00:37:27,573 --> 00:37:28,741
I cannot say.

450
00:37:29,742 --> 00:37:32,578
His Majesty will decide
based on the consensus.

451
00:37:33,871 --> 00:37:35,664
You shame me with your wise answer.

452
00:37:37,249 --> 00:37:39,502
If you will excuse me then.

453
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,349
That crafty fox.

454
00:37:54,016 --> 00:37:56,435
Who knows what he is thinking?

455
00:37:57,019 --> 00:37:58,562
At times,
he sides with Grand Prince Jinhan,

456
00:37:58,646 --> 00:38:00,147
but at other times,
he sides with Minister Kim.

457
00:38:00,231 --> 00:38:02,650
If it were not for his crafty conduct,

458
00:38:02,733 --> 00:38:04,819
he would have been dismissed already.

459
00:38:06,153 --> 00:38:07,738
What will you do now?

460
00:38:07,822 --> 00:38:08,656
At this rate,

461
00:38:08,739 --> 00:38:11,784
the court will demand that Prince Royal
be appointed as the Crown Prince soon.

462
00:38:12,451 --> 00:38:15,079
We must meet the Grand Prince
and let him know of our will.

463
00:38:15,871 --> 00:38:18,040
I will arrange it soon and let you know.

464
00:38:18,124 --> 00:38:19,291
Yes, my lord.

465
00:38:28,467 --> 00:38:29,426
Chief State Councilor.

466
00:38:29,927 --> 00:38:31,637
His Majesty urgently calls for you.

467
00:38:32,179 --> 00:38:34,473
Did he also call for a Royal Secretary
and an official historian?

468
00:38:34,557 --> 00:38:36,600
He only asked for you, my lord.

469
00:38:41,272 --> 00:38:43,649
I have given it much thought,

470
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,611
and I do not feel comfortable
betraying the Ming.

471
00:38:50,114 --> 00:38:53,325
How about we alert them
not to resent the deployment of troops

472
00:38:53,409 --> 00:38:55,035
as it was done against our will

473
00:38:55,828 --> 00:38:58,372
due to the Qing's pressing demand?

474
00:39:01,750 --> 00:39:04,503
Are you suggesting
we send a spy to the Ming?

475
00:39:06,839 --> 00:39:07,673
That is correct.

476
00:39:08,632 --> 00:39:09,675
Your Majesty.

477
00:39:09,758 --> 00:39:12,553
You must be very cautious
when sending a spy.

478
00:39:12,636 --> 00:39:14,388
If the Qing catches on,

479
00:39:14,471 --> 00:39:18,475
they will invade us
before they strike the Ming.

480
00:39:18,559 --> 00:39:20,519
Do you think I am not aware of that?

481
00:39:21,270 --> 00:39:24,982
We can send one in utmost secrecy
so that the Qing would not notice.

482
00:39:29,445 --> 00:39:30,571
This is a royal command.

483
00:39:31,780 --> 00:39:33,866
Do not talk back and carry out the plan.

484
00:39:49,548 --> 00:39:51,800
My shoes are worn out
and need to be repaired.

485
00:39:52,635 --> 00:39:54,136
Let us visit Banchon Village.

486
00:39:54,637 --> 00:39:55,888
Yes, my lord.

487
00:40:02,061 --> 00:40:03,395
Take a look, my lord.

488
00:40:06,774 --> 00:40:07,650
Thank you.

489
00:40:08,234 --> 00:40:09,068
Thank you.

490
00:40:11,695 --> 00:40:13,572
I must speak to Chu Dal-ha.

491
00:40:15,491 --> 00:40:16,825
Please send him my word.

492
00:40:18,911 --> 00:40:20,037
Yes, my lord.

493
00:40:22,581 --> 00:40:23,958
Not a single cloud in the sky.

494
00:40:31,340 --> 00:40:32,466
How dare you?

495
00:40:33,467 --> 00:40:34,802
It is me, my lady.

496
00:40:36,720 --> 00:40:37,763
Master Chu.

497
00:40:38,555 --> 00:40:40,140
Have you forgotten already?

498
00:40:40,641 --> 00:40:44,895
When someone tries to steal from you,
it is safer to give them what they want.

499
00:40:44,979 --> 00:40:46,939
I have told you so countless times.

500
00:40:47,022 --> 00:40:49,692
How will I make money for ransom that way?

501
00:40:49,775 --> 00:40:51,527
They say a mad dog can kill a tiger.

502
00:40:51,610 --> 00:40:54,697
It is better to show them
that I am not someone they can mess with.

503
00:40:54,780 --> 00:40:58,617
So how much ransom money did you make?

504
00:41:13,215 --> 00:41:15,092
The <i>baduk</i> gambler is here.

505
00:41:16,677 --> 00:41:18,887
- That man there…
- Do you know him?

506
00:41:18,971 --> 00:41:22,141
He is Chu Dal-ha, who repatriated
Lord Yoo's sister against his will.

507
00:41:22,224 --> 00:41:23,600
I must inform him immediately.

508
00:41:30,733 --> 00:41:31,734
What do you think?

509
00:41:32,234 --> 00:41:34,820
Enough to bring back
at least ten, is it not?

510
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:37,906
Ten is a long shot.

511
00:41:38,824 --> 00:41:40,909
As the rich noblemen
matched whatever the Qing demanded

512
00:41:40,993 --> 00:41:42,870
to expedite their return,

513
00:41:43,746 --> 00:41:45,664
the ransom price skyrocketed.

514
00:41:48,667 --> 00:41:50,002
How pathetic of them.

515
00:41:51,337 --> 00:41:53,547
When Grand Prince Jinhan was in Shenyang,

516
00:41:53,630 --> 00:41:56,592
he negotiated with the Qing's court
to regulate the price.

517
00:41:56,675 --> 00:41:59,470
But as that is not an option now,
I am worried about what is to come.

518
00:42:00,929 --> 00:42:03,098
Did the Grand Prince
do things like that too?

519
00:42:03,182 --> 00:42:06,560
That may be why there is a rumor
accusing him of being Prince Rui's spy.

520
00:42:07,269 --> 00:42:09,772
After all, I assume he had to
pay back what he received.

521
00:42:18,655 --> 00:42:21,158
Please have me carry such things, my lady.

522
00:42:25,162 --> 00:42:26,580
Had I received word beforehand,

523
00:42:26,663 --> 00:42:28,999
I would have prepared better food.

524
00:42:29,083 --> 00:42:30,084
I apologize.

525
00:42:30,167 --> 00:42:31,668
Please do not apologize.

526
00:42:32,169 --> 00:42:33,462
They all look delicious.

527
00:42:48,435 --> 00:42:49,603
Goodness.

528
00:42:49,686 --> 00:42:50,979
I should get going.

529
00:42:52,398 --> 00:42:53,899
Already?

530
00:42:53,982 --> 00:42:56,068
The sun is still up.

531
00:42:56,568 --> 00:42:59,738
I must see Lord Kang,
so let me escort you back home.

532
00:42:59,822 --> 00:43:01,615
- Let me just finish this and--
- No need.

533
00:43:01,698 --> 00:43:03,867
My father will not be back
until hours later.

534
00:43:03,951 --> 00:43:06,537
You can come
after you eat everything here.

535
00:43:06,620 --> 00:43:07,996
You better finish it all.

536
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:09,164
Do you understand?

537
00:43:09,748 --> 00:43:11,583
How am I supposed to finish all this…

538
00:43:14,753 --> 00:43:16,171
I will finish everything before I go.

539
00:43:22,052 --> 00:43:23,637
Just sit down. No need to see me out.

540
00:43:24,221 --> 00:43:25,055
But still…

541
00:43:28,100 --> 00:43:30,269
I now understand why people meddle.

542
00:43:31,145 --> 00:43:33,605
Like you said,
some things are obvious to the onlooker.

543
00:43:47,661 --> 00:43:49,246
Please eat up.

544
00:43:49,329 --> 00:43:50,289
Yes, my lady.

545
00:43:57,004 --> 00:43:58,255
My goodness.

546
00:44:04,136 --> 00:44:05,554
Am I seeing things?

547
00:44:06,221 --> 00:44:08,265
Am I thinking
about the Grand Prince too much?

548
00:45:17,876 --> 00:45:20,003
Thank you for coming, Your Highness.

549
00:45:20,629 --> 00:45:22,965
It is an honor to greet you,
Your Highness.

550
00:45:23,048 --> 00:45:25,342
I am Oh Wook-hwan,
the Third Minister of Taxation.

551
00:45:25,884 --> 00:45:27,219
Greetings, Your Highness.

552
00:45:27,302 --> 00:45:28,887
I am Min Ji-hwan, Assistant Section Chief
of the Ministry of War.

553
00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,226
Uncle, why did you want to see me?

554
00:45:34,810 --> 00:45:37,980
Let us take our seats first.
I will get to the point in time.

555
00:45:46,697 --> 00:45:48,949
I am sure you are aware
that Minister Kim Jong-bae

556
00:45:49,032 --> 00:45:53,036
has received His Majesty's approval
to deploy troops to the Qing

557
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,664
by seeking a private audience
with him recently

558
00:45:55,747 --> 00:45:57,040
without the court's consent.

559
00:45:57,582 --> 00:46:00,127
Only one thing could have motivated
Minister Kim to do such a thing.

560
00:46:00,210 --> 00:46:02,045
He wants the Royal Prince
to be appointed as the heir

561
00:46:02,129 --> 00:46:04,423
and receive <i>gomyeong</i>
from the Emperor of Qing.

562
00:46:04,506 --> 00:46:05,966
GOMYEONG: A DOCUMENT APPROVING
THE APPOINTMENT OF AN HEIR

563
00:46:06,758 --> 00:46:07,676
Is that so?

564
00:46:09,428 --> 00:46:11,888
Why else would he want a child
named as the King's heir?

565
00:46:11,972 --> 00:46:14,975
It is obvious
he wants to play the king himself!

566
00:46:15,058 --> 00:46:18,729
How can he play king
when His Majesty is alive?

567
00:46:20,147 --> 00:46:21,023
Sorry?

568
00:46:21,857 --> 00:46:22,858
Well…

569
00:46:23,358 --> 00:46:24,985
I did not mean it that way…

570
00:46:25,068 --> 00:46:26,820
Then what did you mean?

571
00:46:30,741 --> 00:46:32,117
Forgive me for my words,

572
00:46:32,701 --> 00:46:35,954
but His Majesty has been ill
for a long time.

573
00:46:36,038 --> 00:46:37,372
The Chinese mainland

574
00:46:37,456 --> 00:46:40,042
is in turmoil due to the strife
between the Ming and the Qing.

575
00:46:40,751 --> 00:46:44,629
This is a turbulent time as the conflict
may reach Joseon at any minute.

576
00:46:45,213 --> 00:46:47,049
Thus, His Majesty's heir must be

577
00:46:47,132 --> 00:46:49,885
someone with wisdom, authority,
and power to combat the national crisis.

578
00:46:50,886 --> 00:46:51,970
I believe such a person

579
00:46:52,763 --> 00:46:54,473
is you, Your Highness.

580
00:46:59,519 --> 00:47:00,562
So…

581
00:47:02,397 --> 00:47:04,816
what you are saying
is that I must succeed His Majesty

582
00:47:05,984 --> 00:47:08,403
over the Prince Royal,
who is his legitimate heir?

583
00:47:08,904 --> 00:47:09,946
Yes, Your Highness.

584
00:47:10,781 --> 00:47:12,366
If you are willing,

585
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,077
we will give you our support.

586
00:47:38,016 --> 00:47:40,143
- Your Highness.
- Stand back.

587
00:47:40,727 --> 00:47:42,229
If I had brought my sword with me,

588
00:47:42,938 --> 00:47:47,734
I would have beheaded all of you,
including you, Uncle.

589
00:47:49,069 --> 00:47:50,320
Your Highness.

590
00:47:50,404 --> 00:47:53,407
Please calm down and allow us to continue.

591
00:47:53,490 --> 00:47:55,033
What more is there to hear?

592
00:47:55,117 --> 00:47:57,035
You are suggesting we plot treason!

593
00:47:58,620 --> 00:48:00,997
You are the blood of the late king.

594
00:48:01,623 --> 00:48:03,250
How is this plotting treason

595
00:48:03,333 --> 00:48:05,168
when we only seek
to ensure the nation's safety

596
00:48:05,252 --> 00:48:06,920
by having you ascend to the throne?

597
00:48:07,003 --> 00:48:09,047
I will make myself clear.

598
00:48:09,131 --> 00:48:10,173
I…

599
00:48:11,174 --> 00:48:13,927
do not wish to take the throne.

600
00:48:14,511 --> 00:48:16,346
Do not attempt to sway me

601
00:48:16,430 --> 00:48:18,890
by bringing up the nation's safety
and national crisis.

602
00:48:19,599 --> 00:48:22,102
It is what I despise
the most in this world.

603
00:48:22,185 --> 00:48:25,313
I will serve my brother
until the day I die.

604
00:48:25,397 --> 00:48:26,606
Do not think for a moment…

605
00:48:28,442 --> 00:48:31,153
that I will change my mind.

606
00:48:32,154 --> 00:48:33,697
As my brother's subject,

607
00:48:35,031 --> 00:48:36,950
I will not sit back and watch.

608
00:48:38,201 --> 00:48:41,037
Why are you so afraid to seize your fate?

609
00:48:44,082 --> 00:48:45,625
I am convinced

610
00:48:46,543 --> 00:48:48,128
that ascending to the throne,

611
00:48:48,211 --> 00:48:51,423
having the world at your command,
and governing this nation as its king

612
00:48:52,382 --> 00:48:54,217
is your fate.

613
00:48:54,801 --> 00:48:56,845
Do not deny it.

614
00:49:04,936 --> 00:49:06,021
Your Highness.

615
00:49:35,300 --> 00:49:36,259
Bollocks.

616
00:49:45,435 --> 00:49:46,269
You…

617
00:49:48,730 --> 00:49:49,898
Oh, goodness!

618
00:49:58,907 --> 00:49:59,824
Are you

619
00:50:01,117 --> 00:50:02,452
in league with them?

620
00:50:05,455 --> 00:50:06,498
No, Your Highness.

621
00:50:07,165 --> 00:50:09,584
I do not even know who they are.

622
00:50:09,668 --> 00:50:11,336
Then how come you are here?

623
00:50:13,338 --> 00:50:16,007
I saw you while walking down the streets.

624
00:50:17,050 --> 00:50:18,260
And before I knew it…

625
00:50:28,186 --> 00:50:30,730
So you followed me
because you were happy to see me?

626
00:50:34,609 --> 00:50:35,485
Yes.

627
00:50:37,362 --> 00:50:39,322
Do you expect me to believe that?

628
00:50:41,366 --> 00:50:43,285
Do not believe me if you would rather not.

629
00:50:46,913 --> 00:50:48,498
Did you hurt yourself badly?

630
00:50:53,420 --> 00:50:56,548
I only followed you because I was worried.

631
00:50:57,924 --> 00:51:00,719
I was told that is what friends do.

632
00:51:08,518 --> 00:51:09,644
Let me help.

633
00:51:09,728 --> 00:51:11,104
Let me go.

634
00:51:17,736 --> 00:51:20,280
Come with me. There is a stream nearby.

635
00:51:20,822 --> 00:51:23,158
You will feel better
after you soak your foot in cold water.

636
00:51:23,241 --> 00:51:24,200
Let us head there.

637
00:51:25,368 --> 00:51:26,453
Do as I say.

638
00:51:26,953 --> 00:51:28,288
Come on. Be careful.

639
00:51:30,248 --> 00:51:31,833
I told you to do as I say.

640
00:51:36,963 --> 00:51:37,797
Careful.

641
00:51:48,495 --> 00:51:49,579
Sit down.

642
00:51:50,622 --> 00:51:51,623
Go on then.

643
00:51:55,794 --> 00:51:56,628
Let me.

644
00:51:56,711 --> 00:51:58,797
I will take it off myself.

645
00:51:59,756 --> 00:52:00,590
Your High--

646
00:52:03,176 --> 00:52:04,135
Here.

647
00:52:04,219 --> 00:52:06,596
Oh, that is cold!

648
00:52:10,058 --> 00:52:11,142
What was that

649
00:52:11,643 --> 00:52:13,520
childish sound you just made?

650
00:52:16,439 --> 00:52:17,273
That is cold.

651
00:52:18,900 --> 00:52:21,945
You also sound like a child
when surprised.

652
00:52:47,554 --> 00:52:48,638
I apologize.

653
00:52:50,390 --> 00:52:51,599
I was not

654
00:52:52,726 --> 00:52:54,394
accusing you of anything earlier.

655
00:52:56,146 --> 00:52:58,064
I was simply ashamed to face you…

656
00:53:00,942 --> 00:53:03,153
and upset about
what you would think of me.

657
00:53:04,112 --> 00:53:05,321
I was rash.

658
00:53:06,448 --> 00:53:07,532
Forgive me.

659
00:53:11,327 --> 00:53:12,412
All right.

660
00:53:13,496 --> 00:53:15,498
Since you have apologized,

661
00:53:15,582 --> 00:53:17,834
I will forgive you just this once.

662
00:53:20,628 --> 00:53:21,671
Thank you.

663
00:53:23,381 --> 00:53:24,716
Since you have forgiven me,

664
00:53:25,383 --> 00:53:27,552
please forget what happened today.

665
00:53:29,679 --> 00:53:31,723
Please do not worry.

666
00:53:32,223 --> 00:53:34,768
I have terrible eyesight and poor hearing,

667
00:53:34,851 --> 00:53:37,270
so I have not seen or heard anything.

668
00:53:41,399 --> 00:53:42,567
That is a relief.

669
00:54:06,216 --> 00:54:09,260
What a pleasantly soothing scent.

670
00:54:11,805 --> 00:54:14,349
What scent are you talking about?

671
00:54:16,267 --> 00:54:17,769
The smell of the wind.

672
00:54:18,978 --> 00:54:20,230
The wind?

673
00:54:21,731 --> 00:54:25,401
Are you talking about
the smell of grass and dirt?

674
00:54:25,944 --> 00:54:27,904
You may not understand

675
00:54:27,987 --> 00:54:29,489
as you have never left this land.

676
00:54:30,865 --> 00:54:34,869
Does the wind smell differently
in the land you stayed?

677
00:54:36,663 --> 00:54:37,747
It does.

678
00:54:39,749 --> 00:54:43,378
The scent of blood, sweat, and tears
of the innocent people of Joseon…

679
00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:47,215
pervades the wind there.

680
00:54:50,552 --> 00:54:53,888
I vowed to myself on the day
I smelled that wind for the first time.

681
00:54:53,972 --> 00:54:56,266
That I would survive and return to Joseon

682
00:54:56,349 --> 00:54:59,644
and serve the people and the nation
until the day I die.

683
00:54:59,727 --> 00:55:00,687
That I will not…

684
00:55:02,856 --> 00:55:05,233
let such tragic events happen ever again.

685
00:55:14,242 --> 00:55:16,911
What am I saying right now?

686
00:55:17,954 --> 00:55:20,039
As you have terrible eyesight
and poor hearing,

687
00:55:20,623 --> 00:55:23,793
I must feel relaxed enough
to ramble on about these things.

688
00:55:27,213 --> 00:55:28,339
Sorry?

689
00:55:28,423 --> 00:55:31,259
What did you just say?

690
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:41,394
Right.

691
00:55:42,020 --> 00:55:43,479
Hongjang told me

692
00:55:43,563 --> 00:55:46,316
you take your opponent's stone
when you win a <i>baduk</i> game.

693
00:55:47,567 --> 00:55:50,403
I do when they bet
their <i>baduk</i> tables and stones.

694
00:55:51,154 --> 00:55:54,157
As you have given me a name,
I will consider your stone received.

695
00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:57,076
Wait here. I will find one in no time.

696
00:55:57,869 --> 00:55:59,078
There is no need.

697
00:55:59,162 --> 00:56:00,538
Your Highness!

698
00:56:01,122 --> 00:56:02,123
Goodness!

699
00:56:16,763 --> 00:56:17,764
Here.

700
00:56:22,435 --> 00:56:23,686
What do you think?

701
00:56:23,770 --> 00:56:25,146
Is any of them to your liking?

702
00:56:31,694 --> 00:56:35,156
Is it really all right for me
to take this stone from you?

703
00:56:37,075 --> 00:56:38,201
What do you mean?

704
00:56:39,702 --> 00:56:42,622
I was the first to play,
but I only won by one <i>jip</i>.

705
00:56:43,706 --> 00:56:46,918
You won that day, Your Highness.

706
00:56:50,421 --> 00:56:51,589
Is that not true?

707
00:57:02,225 --> 00:57:03,559
Do not be so fastidious.

708
00:57:04,852 --> 00:57:07,313
A loss is a loss,
no matter how small it is.

709
00:57:11,150 --> 00:57:12,568
Please hold onto this.

710
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:16,114
I will take it back

711
00:57:16,698 --> 00:57:18,449
the next time there is a drizzle.

712
00:57:21,953 --> 00:57:22,954
All right.

713
00:57:29,919 --> 00:57:32,005
I will keep it safe until then.

714
00:57:34,173 --> 00:57:35,216
Yes, Your Highness.

715
00:57:50,148 --> 00:57:51,190
Father.

716
00:57:51,858 --> 00:57:55,153
What kind of a person
is Grand Prince Jinhan?

717
00:57:57,030 --> 00:57:58,990
He is a man among men

718
00:57:59,073 --> 00:58:01,242
and one who plays <i>baduk</i> as well as you do.

719
00:58:04,412 --> 00:58:07,206
He was born with the talent and authority

720
00:58:07,290 --> 00:58:09,751
to rule and command the world.

721
00:58:13,463 --> 00:58:14,505
And that makes him…

722
00:58:17,216 --> 00:58:19,385
a target and a threat.

723
00:58:28,227 --> 00:58:29,228
Not only that,

724
00:58:29,937 --> 00:58:32,065
his life is sad and pitiful.

725
00:58:33,816 --> 00:58:36,152
He was fated to ascend to the throne

726
00:58:36,235 --> 00:58:38,571
despite not being able to do so.

727
00:58:39,572 --> 00:58:41,282
Despite his loyal heart,

728
00:58:41,366 --> 00:58:45,286
treacherous men
will flock to him like moths to a flame.

729
00:58:51,042 --> 00:58:52,627
Do not worry, Father.

730
00:58:55,171 --> 00:58:58,674
His Highness is not someone
who will be swayed by such people.

731
00:58:59,926 --> 00:59:01,803
That is a strange thing to say.

732
00:59:02,970 --> 00:59:07,433
You speak as if you are
a close acquaintance of His Highness.

733
00:59:11,062 --> 00:59:12,271
That is silly, Father.

734
00:59:13,106 --> 00:59:16,901
How could I be of acquaintance
with His Highness?

735
00:59:17,985 --> 00:59:19,237
I just assumed

736
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:22,657
listening to you speak about him.

737
00:59:24,575 --> 00:59:25,743
I hope

738
00:59:26,494 --> 00:59:28,871
that you are right.

739
01:00:04,073 --> 01:00:05,283
I am sorry.

740
01:00:06,617 --> 01:00:09,328
I always give you duties
that require you to risk your life.

741
01:00:11,789 --> 01:00:12,957
No need to apologize.

742
01:00:13,666 --> 01:00:15,668
I am more than content
with your faith in me.

743
01:00:49,827 --> 01:00:50,786
What a heartless man.

744
01:00:51,579 --> 01:00:54,624
How come he never bids goodbye
before he leaves?

745
01:00:56,125 --> 01:00:57,710
He has gone like the wind,

746
01:00:57,793 --> 01:00:59,504
so he shall return like one too.

747
01:01:01,130 --> 01:01:02,340
How understanding of you.

748
01:01:03,591 --> 01:01:04,759
Goodness.

749
01:01:11,766 --> 01:01:13,809
The rain has been scarce this year.

750
01:01:14,936 --> 01:01:16,687
I wonder when it will rain again.

751
01:01:18,606 --> 01:01:20,107
Are you waiting for <i>mongwoo</i>?

752
01:01:21,359 --> 01:01:22,276
What?

753
01:01:24,028 --> 01:01:25,112
Well, yes.

754
01:01:25,196 --> 01:01:28,032
It must rain for the crops to grow.

755
01:01:29,408 --> 01:01:30,701
My lady.

756
01:01:30,785 --> 01:01:32,828
Why are you playing innocent?

757
01:01:32,912 --> 01:01:35,748
I asked if you were waiting
for Grand Prince Jinhan.

758
01:01:38,709 --> 01:01:40,336
I was not playing innocent.

759
01:01:40,878 --> 01:01:43,422
I simply do not know what to do.

760
01:01:45,424 --> 01:01:46,884
What do you mean?

761
01:01:48,886 --> 01:01:50,555
Do you think he will be surprised

762
01:01:50,638 --> 01:01:52,181
when I tell him who I am?

763
01:01:53,891 --> 01:01:56,561
He will probably be shocked.

764
01:01:57,311 --> 01:01:58,604
I assume he will get furious

765
01:01:59,313 --> 01:02:01,983
by the fact that he has been deceived
by a mere woman.

766
01:02:04,610 --> 01:02:05,695
My lady.

767
01:02:06,946 --> 01:02:09,407
Have you decided to tell him who you are?

768
01:02:15,121 --> 01:02:17,039
I am not saying I will do so right now.

769
01:02:17,748 --> 01:02:19,125
I will when the time is right.

770
01:02:20,668 --> 01:02:22,336
He called me his <i>manghyeongjiu</i>

771
01:02:22,420 --> 01:02:24,422
and even gave me the name <i>Mongwoo</i>.

772
01:02:25,923 --> 01:02:29,051
I do not think it is right to befriend him
while hiding behind a mask.

773
01:02:32,221 --> 01:02:34,932
Of course,
I shall not be too rash with the decision

774
01:02:35,433 --> 01:02:37,268
since you played a part in the ruse.

775
01:02:39,604 --> 01:02:41,230
I am all for telling him the truth.

776
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:45,443
You are?

777
01:02:46,027 --> 01:02:50,114
Yes, so do not mind me
and tell him when the right time comes.

778
01:03:06,881 --> 01:03:09,634
We must do something
before the Prince Royal grows older.

779
01:03:10,885 --> 01:03:12,470
Do not worry.

780
01:03:12,553 --> 01:03:15,681
I have a plan for Grand Prince Jinhan.

781
01:03:18,184 --> 01:03:19,935
I will put my trust in you.

782
01:03:28,611 --> 01:03:29,987
Bullseye!

783
01:03:31,155 --> 01:03:35,117
I remember hearing that His Highness
injured his arm recently.

784
01:03:35,701 --> 01:03:36,786
He did.

785
01:03:36,869 --> 01:03:39,830
He is hitting the bullseye
with every shot despite his injury.

786
01:03:39,914 --> 01:03:42,500
I should stop attending archery practice.

787
01:03:46,003 --> 01:03:46,921
Bullseye!

788
01:03:47,004 --> 01:03:49,632
Your excuse to avoid training
is becoming more base.

789
01:03:52,343 --> 01:03:53,177
You caught on?

790
01:03:53,260 --> 01:03:54,303
Sang-hyo.

791
01:03:54,387 --> 01:03:56,013
Shut that mouth of yours!

792
01:03:56,514 --> 01:03:58,891
Yes, Brother. I will keep it shut.

793
01:04:04,939 --> 01:04:07,733
I am planning to go on a hunt

794
01:04:07,817 --> 01:04:09,694
to find the famed <i>baduk</i> gambler tomorrow.

795
01:04:09,777 --> 01:04:10,695
Do you want to join?

796
01:04:11,278 --> 01:04:13,280
- A <i>baduk</i> gambler?
- Bullseye!

797
01:04:13,364 --> 01:04:15,533
Why are you interfering with
Hanseong Magistracy's affairs?

798
01:04:16,826 --> 01:04:19,370
They could never catch him.

799
01:04:20,371 --> 01:04:23,791
Only those who have
mastered <i>baduk</i> can catch him.

800
01:04:23,874 --> 01:04:24,750
And that

801
01:04:25,626 --> 01:04:27,503
is me, Min Sang-hyo.

802
01:04:30,297 --> 01:04:33,968
If we are to play <i>baduk</i>, I will visit
the Chief State Councilor's house instead.

803
01:04:35,594 --> 01:04:36,679
Well,

804
01:04:36,762 --> 01:04:41,684
I would also like to meet his daughter.

805
01:04:45,479 --> 01:04:46,814
Do not even dream of it.

806
01:05:02,288 --> 01:05:03,456
Bullseye!

807
01:05:06,083 --> 01:05:08,586
My lord!

808
01:05:09,545 --> 01:05:12,673
We found the <i>baduk</i> gambler you spoke of.

809
01:05:13,257 --> 01:05:14,800
You did? Where is he?

810
01:05:19,305 --> 01:05:21,140
Please hurry, my lord!

811
01:05:26,687 --> 01:05:28,272
Do you see them over there?

812
01:05:29,315 --> 01:05:30,524
He is there.

813
01:05:37,740 --> 01:05:38,657
Thank you.

814
01:05:38,741 --> 01:05:40,743
- Well done.
- Thank you, my lord!

815
01:05:40,826 --> 01:05:42,119
We will gladly serve you again!

816
01:05:45,331 --> 01:05:48,501
Watch closely how I beat him.

817
01:05:53,380 --> 01:05:54,673
Why are you just standing there?

818
01:05:58,511 --> 01:05:59,553
I am sorry.

819
01:05:59,637 --> 01:06:01,347
I have an urgent matter to attend to.

820
01:06:01,931 --> 01:06:03,974
An urgent matter? Out of the blue?

821
01:06:15,778 --> 01:06:18,572
Are you that famous expert <i>baduk</i> player?

822
01:06:19,698 --> 01:06:23,035
Are you aware that I only play
when there is a bet?

823
01:06:24,036 --> 01:06:25,412
Of course, I am.

824
01:06:25,996 --> 01:06:27,832
Today is the day you will lose.

825
01:06:29,333 --> 01:06:31,252
Since you are so confident,

826
01:06:32,336 --> 01:06:33,587
I will go first.

827
01:06:33,671 --> 01:06:35,047
Wait.

828
01:06:38,092 --> 01:06:39,301
How generous.

829
01:06:51,313 --> 01:06:52,523
What play is that?

830
01:06:52,606 --> 01:06:55,234
I was just thinking that too.
What a strange play.

831
01:07:02,366 --> 01:07:05,452
Were you caught off guard
by my sneaky play?

832
01:07:08,122 --> 01:07:10,374
It is quite a rare play, indeed.

833
01:07:11,667 --> 01:07:14,545
Now, shall we actually get started?

834
01:07:24,263 --> 01:07:25,764
Gosh, he is done for.

835
01:07:27,057 --> 01:07:28,851
Look at him having trouble catching up.

836
01:07:30,102 --> 01:07:31,520
What is with the chatter?

837
01:07:31,604 --> 01:07:35,482
When it comes to <i>baduk</i>,
you never know who will win until the end.

838
01:07:40,321 --> 01:07:42,114
How did this happen?

839
01:07:45,534 --> 01:07:46,577
Rain.

840
01:07:46,660 --> 01:07:47,786
It is raining!

841
01:07:48,537 --> 01:07:49,455
- What?
- What?

842
01:07:49,538 --> 01:07:51,749
- It really is.
- Indeed.

843
01:07:52,499 --> 01:07:53,500
<i>Mongwoo</i>.

844
01:07:55,169 --> 01:07:56,253
It is your turn.

845
01:08:00,966 --> 01:08:02,134
I lose.

846
01:08:03,719 --> 01:08:04,803
- What?
- What?

847
01:08:08,098 --> 01:08:10,601
Did you all see me beat that man?

848
01:08:10,684 --> 01:08:12,728
Why did he forfeit the game he won?

849
01:08:12,811 --> 01:08:13,854
Tell me about it.

850
01:08:13,938 --> 01:08:15,856
Maybe nature was calling him.

851
01:08:15,940 --> 01:08:17,232
That must be the case.

852
01:08:17,316 --> 01:08:18,901
Nature's call, my foot.

853
01:08:19,777 --> 01:08:22,237
He forfeited the game
because he knew he could not win.

854
01:08:28,285 --> 01:08:30,287
I need to know his name.

855
01:08:31,538 --> 01:08:34,333
My table! I need to get his <i>baduk</i> table!

856
01:09:12,621 --> 01:09:14,081
What is wrong?

857
01:09:17,543 --> 01:09:18,836
It is nothing.

858
01:09:26,385 --> 01:09:27,428
My lady.

859
01:10:44,379 --> 01:10:47,257
I was worried
you might have forgotten our promise.

860
01:10:47,966 --> 01:10:49,593
But I was worried for nothing.

861
01:10:51,512 --> 01:10:54,431
How could I forget a promise to my friend?

862
01:11:19,790 --> 01:11:21,333
Have you prepared yourself?

863
01:11:21,416 --> 01:11:23,168
I will not go easy on you today.

864
01:11:24,169 --> 01:11:25,921
I was just about to say the same.

865
01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:28,298
Let us have a proper game.

866
01:11:43,313 --> 01:11:44,481
Your Highness.

867
01:11:50,404 --> 01:11:51,613
Myung-ha.

868
01:11:54,116 --> 01:11:57,369
I did not expect to see you here.

869
01:12:07,421 --> 01:12:10,632
I did not expect to see you here either,
Your Highness.

870
01:12:15,304 --> 01:12:16,847
Have you been well?

871
01:12:21,977 --> 01:12:23,103
Do you two…

872
01:12:24,563 --> 01:12:25,772
know each other?

873
01:12:27,691 --> 01:12:28,775
Yes, Your Highness.

874
01:12:28,859 --> 01:12:30,611
Very well, at that.

875
01:12:32,738 --> 01:12:33,822
Is that not true?

876
01:13:32,547 --> 01:13:35,509
CAPTIVATING THE KING

877
01:13:35,592 --> 01:13:38,929
<i>What he hides from me,
I am sure he shares with Kim Myung-ha.</i>

878
01:13:39,012 --> 01:13:40,639
<i>Does he know his name too?</i>

879
01:13:40,722 --> 01:13:42,432
<i>What if it is to seek
the Emperor's approval</i>

880
01:13:42,516 --> 01:13:46,770
to have Grand Prince Jinhan
ascend to the throne?

881
01:13:46,853 --> 01:13:51,400
<i>Grand Prince Jinhan and that</i> baduk <i>gambler</i>

882
01:13:51,483 --> 01:13:54,361
<i>shall both accompany you
to the underworld.</i>

883
01:13:54,444 --> 01:13:56,488
Find a way to save the Grand Prince.

884
01:13:56,571 --> 01:13:58,991
Stop torturing innocent people

885
01:13:59,074 --> 01:14:01,243
and question me directly.

886
01:14:01,785 --> 01:14:04,329
His Highness will save us no matter what.

887
01:14:04,955 --> 01:14:08,917
<i>You must also be careful
not to be captivated, Your Highness.</i>
