Episode 5

My Prince! You cannot accept the post!

You cannot become the head of Sogyukseo!

My Prince! What if you catch a cold like that?

What loyal servants you are.

That man is floating in the middle of the river because he doesn't want to see us!

Why are you so fond of him?

You know what to do, right?

If he puts his hand in the water, that's when we'll pull him in!

Okay! It'll be fun!

It's been a bit boring with just us two. But with him, things will be more exciting!

I like it!

Those crazy water ghosts! Do they know who he is?

Hey!

I can't seem to catch a break.

Not at all!

Please retract your order, my King.

I have no desire to do so.

A loyal servant only has one master.

How can you ask me to serve anyone other than you?

You're the only person to whom I can order to attack me.

Do you know why?

Because I trust you to not hurt me.

My King...

Moo Seok.

It's easy to do something that people consider to be worthy.

But you'll truly become great when you turn something unworthy into something worthwhile.

I don't think my judgment is wrong.

So don't think that guarding the Prince is something unworthy...

But rather a chance to turn it into something worthwhile?

For me.

Hey, is it true? You're going to guard Prince Wolgang?

'Guard' is just a nice way to say it. He's sending you to spy on him, isn't he?

But that's not the important part.

Perhaps the King has lost his mind to order someone like you to guard the Prince...

Instead of guarding the frontier!

I will not forgive any instance of disgracing the King.

You're no exception.

Okay, okay. Please let go of me.

What should I pick?

What should I pick as the exam topic to avoid this?

My head aches...

It's hot in here.

It's hot in here...

It's hot in here!

Be careful, Sa Wol.

Don't let go of my hand, my Lady!

Oh no... My Lady!

Father...

I'm volunteering at the local clinic today. Goodbye, then.

Did you see the matchmaker?

Of course! She said she'll have good news in a couple of days.

Please wait and see!

Wait.

I told you as it is.

I also told you that Prince Wolgang isn't a possibility!

Father!

Why can't you understand my concerns for you?

Then why did you do that back then?

Why did you try to make me a queen when Prince Kisan became the King?

That's because...

Situations always change.

Right now is very different from back then!

But Father, I'm always consistent.

I've had my feelings for the Prince for more than ten years.

It's not something I can change that easily.

Then...

Hey...

We need to stop the bleeding. Bring me more gauze.

You'll feel better in a couple of days.

Get some rest.

Hey! Are you okay?

My head is splitting!

Dr. Kim!

Hang in there!

Lady Soo Ryun.

My Prince.

What brings you here?

My head hurts from thinking all night.

Can you give me some medicine?

Thank you.

The patient says his head hurts a lot.

But the medicine doesn't work on him, and doctors don't know the cause.

By the way, what was on your mind all night?

Could it be the medicine? My head feels a lot better already?

Why are you laughing?

That's just plum tea. It's not medicine.

Is that so?

I've been always like this.

Just looking at a peony, which is good for the stomach, makes my stomachache go away.

Same thing with coughs and angelica herbs!

And of course, the sight of eels makes my virility even stronger.

What's the matter?

He looks like a dried turnip. He's so rude and arrogant!

At least you can eat dried turnip!

Thank you so much for bringing me here though.

Don't mention it! I just did what I had to do.

What are you doing here?

Turnip! This is the dried turnip I told you about!

Good to see you here. Give my bracelet back.

Have you ever heard about the Class Law?

Class... what? What is that?

It punishes dumb pariahs like you for challenging the nobility.

So it's against the law to ask for the return of my belonging?

Yes!

Asking for it is a crime. Not bowing in front of me is also a crime.

Everything is a crime. You've committed so many crimes already!

What kind of damned thing is that?

I don't care much for such things. Just give my bracelet back.

I'll leave you in peace if you give it back to me.

Bring me the evidence.

I have no time for this!

I'm already so busy with the Sogyukseo Entrance Exam...

So give it to me before I start beating you up!

Is that so?

You must think carefully.

If you apply to Sogyukseo with no spiritual abilities, and once they find out...

Then...

That'll be your end.

How do you know, my Prince?

How can you tell if she has spiritual abilities if you can't see ghosts yourself?

That's right!

What brings you here, cousin?

I've been tasked with a mission.

A mission?

I'm Kang Moo Seok, your new bodyguard.

Bodyguard? Mine?

Why?

Open your mouth now.

Damn it!

Get out of here, you little brat!

You ruined the most important moment! I won't pay for this!

Really? You really won't pay?

Just figuratively... Don't be too serious.

You dumb girl!

Don't you feel any shame?

If I have to be shameful of such a pretty face...

None of the capital's women should be allowed to come outside of her home!

You and your mouth! Go! Now!

You're back.

Who's this beautiful brother?

Is everyone a brother to you?

It sounds like that word never goes away from your mouth!

Go!

That evil bastard!

I must remain calm.

I can't give up my spiritual powers because of a bastard like him!

That's camellia.

My Queen has given this to me.

She's probably praying for my safe return right now.

Both Rin and my Queen...

The Prince will be cured.

He has a brave father like you to protect him!

I wish I had a father like that.

He wants to be my bodyguard?

What is this?

What is this?

This is the thing?

I wonder what my brother is up to!

He's hammering again!

Stop hammering and come drink with me! This is great!

I don't know why you put so much effort into something you can't use anyway.

Come over here! Let's drink.

That guy...

Many memories are coming back now that they're rebuilding Sogyukseo.

It was probably around this time of the year.

Just stop it already!

Was it really our fault for them to go like that?

They weren't strong enough to protect their own lives.

So you should stop too...

Stop it and forget everything.

Try to forgive yourself.

This scar...

Once this scar completely disappears...

I'll consider it then.

Damn it!

I'm going to burn this place down!

I thought you might not have enough alcohol...

No!

It's me, Do Ha! Did I scare you?

Do Ha?

Why do you put your hair down at night? You look like a madwoman!

I almost peed on myself!

Tomorrow is my exam. So I took a bath.

I must be well prepared.

If your exam is tomorrow, you should be memorizing books instead of bathing!

You'll fail like this!

Really?

Did you fail every time because you took a bath every time?

How did you know?

The innkeeper told you, didn't she?

I won't say.

How did you know? You can see?

It'd be your fault if I fail!

It's very different.

It's the same sky.

But the sky in China and the sky here seem to be very different.

Something feels very familiar.

I think the time has come.

I'm sorry.

He's the head of Sogyukseo, who'll be your judge today!

Pay your respect!

The reason why the King is rebuilding Sogyukseo...

is to create Taoism's highest paradise in this kingdom...

in which everyone has enough food and lives a happy life.

You should try your best, with the King's intention on your mind.

We'll try our best.

Here's your topic.

He's been suffering from a heavy migraine for ten years.

I'm about to die! Please save me!

Don't worry. Your illness will be cured today.

Is he now pulling tricks on sick people?

Anyone who thinks this is a trick doesn't need to be here.

Today's topic is...

Curing this patient.

Whoever figures out the reason of his illness and cures it...

shall become the priest of Sogyukseo.

My Lord.

We did not apply to work at the Royal Clinic.

We applied to work at Sogyukseo...

Good point.

Doctors have tried to cure his illness with different kinds of medicine.

But his condition hasn't improved.

That means his problem isn't just physical.

The person who figures it out shall be the Chief Priest.

He always talks about nonsense!

I met him a couple of times, but he is a weird guy!

Really?

If you think it's nonsense, you can go home now.

You may start.

Let's start.

The Entrance Exam for Sogyukseo is being held at a local clinic?

Prince Wolgang is a very loyal servant!

No one else in this kingdom will be able to make me laugh so hard!

How did you decide to recommend someone who doesn't know what Sogyukseo is about?

The Prince must have his reason.

His reason?

What would that be?

Are you implying that he's hiding his claws?

Or rather, do you want to believe that he's hiding his claws?

You did well.

I disagree with my father.

I don't think the time has come for you to be in the center of people's attention.

It won't be too late to reveal yourself after more preparation.

My Lady.

I'm afraid you're seriously mistaken about me.

I'm not the person whom you think I am.

What you're looking at right now is the real me.

Do you understand?

Sadam, who was born on the day of Gyemi. Is that right?

And you're Do Ha, who was born on the day of Gihae?

Yes, on the day of Gihae, at the hour of Eulhae.

The patient is inside. You may go in.

Okay.

My head hurts so much, as if someone's putting a needle through it!

What are you looking at?

Why are you doing this?

Why are you doing this?

What's going on?

What are you doing to the patient?

My Prince, you should interrogate this man.

Interrogate?

This man is...

Speak now!

He's a murderer.

Speak now!

Speak of what? I'm just a sick patient!

My Prince! Please save me!

Being sick is already hard enough! My Prince!

The reason why I chose him as the topic

is to show that the King's thoughts are always with his people.

But how dare you cause this trouble to disgrace our King's name?

The patient is lying!

The reason of his illness comes from his murder!

I told you to cure him. I didn't tell you to put a false charge on him!

Therefore...

You have failed.

That's nonsense. I saw her!

I saw the woman in green and blue dress!

Stop.

My Prince...

Please take care of yourself!

Okay...

It's a coffin.

Check the skull.

It's the poison of a giant hornet.

This trick has been used since ancient times to assassinate someone.

Who's the owner of this grave?

Handmaiden Kim...

She's a woman.

She's not a common woman.

May I ask what you mean?

There can be many different kinds of woman.

For example, she may be old, young, or married...

She's a regular housewife.

Are you sure?

Yes, my Prince.

Does it seem like it to you?

Yes, a housewife, my Prince.

You should stop now. Too many people are watching.

It's not appropriate for you to be seen as if you're being played by ghosts.

- Tie him! - Yes!

Please spare my life! I did only what I was told to do!

Halt!

Someone said he'll pay me well if I killed this woman!

That's why I killed her...

Who was it? Who told you to kill her?

He is...

Who is it?

This kingdom's...

Hey!

Who was it? Who told you to kill her?

He is this kingdom's...

That kid will find the Dragon God...

Please be patient...

You startled me! You can't sneak up on people like that!

What's the matter? What's going on?

Do Ha isn't coming out of her room after failing the exam.

She's probably very sad right now...

But eventually she'll be glad that she won't work for a place like Sogyukseo!

What are you talking about?

It's just the way it is.

That's how life works...

Has this guy lost his mind? Why is he coming onto me?

Do Ha...

Excuse me.

The exam was supposed to be fair. I'm afraid your judgment wasn't.

I'm the one who decides!

I proved that I can see ghosts. Then don't I qualify to pass?

Why are you only failing me?

You still have no idea?

This is exactly why.

What?

You're disrespectful of the nobility, and have no manners whatsoever.

How can you become the kingdom's priestess

if you don't even know the laws of this land?

I'll learn. I'll do my best to learn.

Please don't take away my chance.

Please teach me.

I don't think it's something that can be learnt.

You don't even know how to read. It'll take forever to teach you!

Just you wait, Dried Turnip!

Mother! I'm right here!

Mother!

- Where are you? - Mother!

I caught you!

So now that you've passed the exam, you have a reason to stay near me.

You should focus on curing me from now on.

Your grace is eternal, my King.

But...

Something bizarre happened.

What? Was she a palace servant?

Yes, my King.

There seemed to be a story, so I took care of it.

So you don't need to worry.

But Prince Wolgang might have seen it.

No. That can't be possible.

Prince Wolgang said he can't see ghosts. That can't be possible...

He definitely can see.

Do you want to see if Prince Wolgang is fit to be a king?

Handmaiden Kim...

Are you here?

Did you really lie to me?

My King...

Did you really lie to me by saying you can't see ghosts?

My King, the shaman of Hae is here.

This shaman who was born at the hour of Hae

on the day of Hae in the month of Hae will cure you, my King.

I'll transfer the bad spirits around you into that shaman.

My King!

This is the place full of memories of my mother.

I was just missing my mother.

And that's why I remembered Handmaiden Kim...

That's all. Please trust me.

Do you think I'll fall for your cheap lies?

Do you think I'm that naive?

Step aside.

Are you trying to protect him by blocking my sword?

Then I'll kill you too!

This is for you, my King.

What?

You must be a wise king.

Your reign can't be tainted by the Prince's blood.

Please remove your sword, my King.

Please calm down, my King.

Lock him up right now!

My King...

What are you doing? Lock him up!

My King!

You can let go of me.

I'm not too fond of being grabbed by a man.

You'll have to stay here for a while.

No, I'll leave here soon.

How can you be so sure?

The King has no way to justify this.

Once the King's anger subsides, he'll let me go.

It's refreshing to sleep somewhere that's not my bedroom.

This isn't too bad.

I want to rest.

You may leave.

That girl is a shaman of Mago, who was born under the energy of Hae.

Please wake up.

Yes!

Is she the right one?

I'll bring her to you. Please hold on.

Excuse me.

The King is looking for you.

Send the shaman away and come with me.

I'm his humble servant.

Then what's happening to me? What about Sogyukseo?

I'll be in touch soon.

Sure.

You must keep in touch! I'll be waiting!

Wolgang can see ghosts... Ghosts...

He lied to me...

They say whoever that sees ghosts can be a king.

He really must be the rightful heir to the throne, if he can see ghosts too.

This kingdom has another king outside of the palace.

How troublesome!

Shut your mouth!

Kill him!

Just kill him.

This is your chance. You always wanted to kill him.

Do you think I'll fall for your tricks?

Do you think I'm a mad king who'll murder my own kin?

Please calm down, my King.

They'll start attacking me.

'Release Wolgang!' 'Release the rightful heir!'

That's what they'll say.

The whole kingdom will talk about how narrow-minded I am for trying to kill my brother!

All you need to do is defend yourself.

There's no way I can justify this.

You can always make something up to justify it.

The Prince has cursed you, my King.

I can see it.

An evil curse has surrounded you and this hall.

This is all done by Prince Wolgang.

What? Prince Wolgang cursed the King?

That can't be possible.

I'm going to see the King.

Queen Dowager... Please wait here for a moment.

Open the door.

My King! I heard that Prince Wolgang is...

My King...

Grandmother...

What brings you to my bedroom?

What in the world are you doing?

Can't you tell?

These are shamans.

Your favorite, Wolgang, tried to put a curse on me.

My body is full of the spirit of his curse...

So I must remove it!

I must remove the evil spirit of Wolgang from my body at all cost!

Pull yourself together, my King!

My King...

Wolgang isn't it.

You know that.

He's neither capable nor willing to do such a thing.

Are you worried, Grandmother?

I'm not worried about Wolgang.

The throne isn't something he dares to put his eyes on.

Stop!

You always only pretend to worry about me.

Do you think I don't know that your love is always with Wolgang?

My King!

'My King!' is the only thing you say!

I hate hearing it.

So please leave.

Get rid of them as soon as possible.

Once the Prime Minister finds out, the King...

No, the entire royal family will be in danger.

As you wish, Queen Dowager.

You must live up to your name, my King!

Is that the evidence of Prince Wolgang's curse?

That's correct.

It's just a snake, my King.

Snake represents the energy of fire.

Our King is born with very strong energy of fire.

By killing a snake like this, he intends to harm the King...

Shut your mouth.

Do you intend to cloud the King's wise judgment with your dark magic?

My King. He's only a lowly priest.

Please do not pay attention to anything he has to say.

This can't be proven.

This is done by a treacherous group of people

who are trying to frame Prince Wolgang with fake rumors!

Anyone who puts a curse on the royal family has to be punished by death.

Prince Wolgang can't be an exception.

Please imprison Prince Wolgang, my King!

Some words of a Taoist priest aren't enough to punish Prince Wolgang!

At the incident...

Your nephew, Kang Moo Seok, was present.

Subtitles by DramaFever

Prince Wolgang has disappeared!

You're fired, effective immediately.

The Prince is in mortal danger!

Did you just talk to us? Can you see us?

You always notice when others are hurt, yet why do you never notice when you're hurt?

Can anyone here me?

Does anyone hear me...
