[Episode 8]

Is anyone home?

Sir?

Are you going somewhere? Why are you dressed in--

I am leaving now.

Heaven and Earth have switched places.

"Heaven and Earth have switched places"?

You will understand soon.

You must be curious.

He is not the strong one.

He can never be the strong one.

Your Highness, Eunuch Ja Won is here.

Let him in now.

Welcome back.

- Your Highness. - Welcome back.

Help me...

Help me.

Sire.

Sire, Heaven and Earth have switched places.

You are the master of the world now, sire.

Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

[Rebel: Thief of the People]

Your Majesty! Your Majesty!

Does this mean that we won't accept any guests for a while?

Of course we won't.

During the mourning period for His Majesty

any noble men visiting a courtesan's house will be punished.

I thought that the king would never die.

Why? I saw the previous king die when I was little.

It was a big ruckus back then.

It was already over 20 years ago.

What's wrong? Did something happen?

By any chance...

When I first came here...

You looked like a crazy man.

Your hair was like this, and your face was like this.

You did something to your back, and had something tied on your wrist.

"Where are you? Where are you?"

Gong Ah took the thing that was tied to your wrist.

Did you receive it?

From this moment, you should never be apart from me.

Do you understand?

Are you going somewhere?

I remember everything.

I wondered why I kept embarrassing myself and crying...

It's because my sister's tears were flowing through me.

I was going to tell you.

I thought you'd just leave if you saw that.

I don't blame you.

I fell for you...

and I even forgot about how I lost my sister.

Will you just leave like this?

I... am coming back.

I hope you hurt your feet!

- May I ask you a question? - Sure.

Have you seen a girl this tall with a ribbon on her wrist?

- May I ask you? - Go ahead.

Have you seen a girl this tall with a ribbon on her wrist?

I haven't seen her.

She has a ribbon on her wrist and wears a white top.

I don't know.

Thank you.

Welcome...

- You're Gil Dong! - Uncle.

- Honey! - Gil Dong!

Eop San's Father! Eop San's Father! Gil Dong is here!

Eop San's Father! Come out quickly!

After the Elder was taken away, and all of you disappeared

people from the magistrate's office raided us.

Who doesn't have their own stories and reasons on this street?

Anyone who has done wrong was taken away, or ran away.

There are only a few of us left in Ikhwari.

Uncle, why didn't you go with Eop San?

He thought he'd be a burden, so he didn't go.

He insisted that Eop San go on his own.

Otherwise, he was going to slit his own throat.

So Eop San left here crying.

By the way, what about my father?

The Elder passed away while he was being tortured.

Heo Tae Hak didn't even bury the body

and just threw the body in the sea...

Mother... Gil Dong is here.

Mother.

By any chance... did Father stop by?

Did Gil Hyun come by?

Has Eo Ri Ni not come yet?

Did Father come here by any chance, Mother?

Mother! It's my fault.

Mother...

Don't worry, Mother.

Gil Hyun, Eo Ri Ni...

I will find them.

I will also bring Father.

So don't worry, Mother.

I already told you, no one came by.

Gong Ah...

the new king likes dancing and singing.

So he's bringing in a lot of courtesans to Jangakwon.

He must be a scoundrel.

So, Prince Jeahn asked me, "What is Gong Ah doing these days?"

You bragged that you'd go to Jangakwon and seduce the king!

But since you met Gil Dong

you've never said it again, and lost a sense of what's going on.

Do you really mean to wait for Gil Dong?

It's already been two months since he left!

He said he'd be back.

After you heard about some child warrior from that crazy old man...

Gong Ah!

What's going on?

Once the magistrate leaves, he said Yong Shim will sleep with another man.

He said he couldn't stand to see that, and tried to slit her face with a knife

but he pierced her eye with it.

What a nightmare!

Yong Shim, what's happened to you...

Oh my... what do we do?

When the crazy man was running wild, you should've run away from him!

- I would just... - Stop crying.

I said stop crying!

Why are you crying?

For what reason are you crying?

If you cry here, do you think someone will come and help you?

No one will come.

No one.

There is no one who will help you.

I miss my mother.

Your mother sold you for three cups of barley.

And you miss her?

There she goes again.

Your father beat you up every time he got drunk.

And you still want to go home?

You know they sold you to fund your brother's wedding! Why are you crying?

Foolish, stupid girls.

Why don't you know that there is no one waiting for you out in the world!

Don't cry.

Don't cry!

It's my fault.

Oh my.

I wasn't trying to sell you off and become rich.

I really think your talent is wasted here.

To be honest...

I liked you with Gil Dong.

If you'd become husband and wife and lived together

I thought it would be really nice.

I thought it wouldn't end with you and Gil Dong!

But, look!

He left, and you're here alone...

Left here alone...

This is so upsetting...

Tomorrow...

I will go to Prince Jeahn's party.

I will go to Jangakwon.

Gong Ah, I'm back!

Everyone left.

Everyone left, and I'm the only one remaining.

I waited for you.

Why are you following me?

You don't have enough money?

You were running away after committing some crime, right?

If you are with me, no one will get suspicious.

Tell people that I'm your sister. Then who would be suspicious of you?

I'll call you "Brother" from now on, and won't talk down to you anymore.

Brother!

Excuse me.

Oh my, we don't have any room.

Can you share a room with other guests?

Let's do that.

Since I have a girl with me, I don't think we can share a room.

Do you have any other rooms?

I'll give you my room if I have to!

Is there anything else you need?

That stench!

There is a strict custom of men and women.

If we're already sharing a room...

My goodness.

He has an interesting look.

There is the mountain.

There is the mountain.

The green mountain couldn't forget the emerald water...

My love is the green mountain

and my love's love is the emerald water.

Perhaps the emerald water couldn't forget the green mountain...

I think I'm the oldest one here.

He's coming! He's coming!

He's coming!

You may begin.

Peony is the king of flowers.

Sunflower is the royal vassal.

Lotus flower is the wise man.

Apricot flower is the child.

Chrysanthemum is the scholar in hiding.

Cherry blossom is a poor scholar.

I would hardly call that music.

So he is the King!

How could he be so handsome? He is dazzling!

He is truly beautiful.

Thank you.

- Could you give me some jujube? - Sure.

Thank you.

Why are you buying so much?

You haven't left yet?

Are you setting a memorial table?

This one's better.

Take your pick.

This goes here, and chestnuts here.

This one goes here.

I've prepared plenty of memorial tables, so I know very well.

You must've been disappointed last time since I only brought a bottle of wine.

I prepared a lot today

so take your time to eat.

No, she's not the one I told you about.

Now that I'm drinking with Mother, the wine tastes great.

Who are you?

Gil Dong!

It's really you, Gil Dong!

You were still alive?

To be killed by my hands...

you are still alive?

I am sorry...

I am sorry, Gil Dong!

If I saw you again, I planned to die with you.

Let's die together.

Let's die together!

Ah Mo Gae! Ah Mo Gae...

Your father...

Hurry up.

Go on in. Hurry.

Father.

Father.

Father...

Father...

Finally the date for the special exam has been set.

The rumor is that those who pass this exam will gain important posts.

Special exam...

Do you plan to take the exam as well?

Pardon? I...

You look like you have been studying for a while.

Which school did you attend?

I won't be taking national exams.

The special exam is coming up!

We have high quality brushes, ink blocks, and inkstones!

Please take a look!

They're very high quality.

What am I thinking now?

Why do you turn around?

It seems that you are a scholar preparing for the special exam.

By any chance, do you not have money to buy paper?

- Did you find the corpse? - Why are you acting this way?

Have you lost your mind?

Did the second son also really die?

Then why is there no corpse?

He fell off the cliff and died, so we couldn't find his body.

Besides, he was shot with arrows.

So he couldn't possibly have survived.

There is something you don't know.

I had forgotten about it...

To tell you the truth, he is... not an ordinary man!

I am sorry, Gil Dong.

I was scared.

I was scared...

But I kept Ah Mo Gae alive.

I risked my life...

and protected Ah Mo Gae from death.

I'm sorry, Gil Dong!

You should kill me. Kill me.

Gil Dong...

No one knows.

Everyone thinks Ah Mo Gae died in the middle of being tortured.

I am sorry, Gil Dong.

If you boil the water that rice was washed in and cook with ground rice

it's better for you.

I found some rice in the kitchen.

Who told you to do this?

Go ahead.

What about Gil Hyun and Eo Ri Ni?

Gil Hyun and Eo Ri Ni are doing well.

Once you get better, I will take you to Gil Hyun.

I was lucky to meet Ah Mo Gae, and I had a lot of fun for a while.

Once Ah Mo Gae recovers a little more, you should leave.

I prepared some money for you.

I will also send more people to you.

Please take care of Father for a few days.

I need to go somewhere.

Go somewhere? Where?

I should look for Uncle So Bu Ri and Yong Gae.

They ran away to save themselves!

Now that Ah Mo Gae's business is destroyed

would they come back?

They're out there probably because they don't know my father's alive.

Once they find out my father is alive, they will come back.

Buy a clay pot! Buy a strong clay pot!

Clay...

Buy a clay pot! Buy a strong clay pot!

- Move quickly! - Yes, sir!

If I even see a pebble this size, you'll have to take the blame for it!

Yes, sir!

He's working me so hard.

Let me see, let me see...

A man who passed the national exam will propose to you.

Oh my! My my my! Oh my!

Oh, right.

In that case...

what do I do about my husband?

- Your husband? - Yes.

It doesn't mention that here.

- I have four children. - Four?

- Yes. - Four.

I'm looking for someone.

You! Aren't you Gil Dong?

Here. Pour me a drink!

By the way, how can you make a living as a fortune teller when you're so bad?

My father...

He's alive.

What, what?

There is no chance. I definitely--

I saw him myself.

He's badly hurt... but he is alive.

Let's go.

I need to see the Elder.

Let's go.

What took you so long? Why?

Uncle...

If you ran away...

I was going to kill you.

Gil Dong, I am relieved.

Your stench is still the same!

Sir!

- Gil Dong! - Don't come near me!

- Don't come near me! - Gil Dong!

For a man, it's actually better to drink.

The men who gamble are useless!

That's true!

I used to fly and crawl in Ikhwari over there.

For me--

Oh my! Oh my!

- My lord! My lord! - What's this?

My lord can't hold his alcohol!

Every time he drinks, he talks nonsense like this.

What should we do?

Well...

Let me see your clay pots.

Did you make some money selling clay pots?

What money? He exchanged it all for wine.

You'll hurt your back before you get to hold Geum Nang in your arms.

Why did you come now?

Do you know how long I've waited for you?

You rotten scoundrels...

If you came any later, I was going to jump into the Daedong River.

- Have you been well? - Yong Gae!

If you grind this and add it to the soup

your stomach won't hurt, and your blood flow will improve.

I went everywhere from dawn to forage this.

So my arms and legs are aching.

That young one...

sure talks a lot.

I've been watching Gil Dong, and he's really messy.

His feet smell really bad.

Someone should take care of him.

Otherwise, he won't act like a proper man.

Since we're talking about it...

I thought I should stay by his side and take good care of him from now on.

Don't expect too much.

Why would they come back?

It's cold out here. Let's go inside now.

Elder!

Elder!

Elder! What has happened to you...

- Elder! - Elder!

Hey, that magistrate! That rotten son of a bitch!

I will explain everything.

I will...

Gil Dong, tell them that I kept your father alive!

Gil Dong! I helped your father...

- Gil Dong! - Are you running away?

Gil Dong!

I'll find a bat and... Stop right there!

Elder.

Let me pour you a drink.

Consider this punishment for fooling us completely.

He shouldn't drink yet.

Is our Elder someone who can't even take a drink?

That's right. Here!

See?

It's really tasty since we're all here drinking together!

By the way, what's wrong with this clay bowl?

I only sell the good ones.

But the clay bowls are such bad quality.

I made some food to go with your wine.

Take this.

By the way...

Who...

Right, right, right. I've also been very curious about it.

- So you've been curious. - Yes!

- I am Gil Dong's... - Gil Dong?

Gil Dong! Did you bring her here?

Wait. It's not like that.

- Together with Gil Dong... - Together?

So your relationship with him must be...

No. No, it's not that.

Actually, when you brought that silly, chatty girl

I wanted to ask you who she was.

Wow, Gil Dong is all pale for some reason.

Did you do it?

Gil Dong is using his strength in some odd ways.

- No, it's not like that. - Gil Dong.

Should I bring you more wine?

Here you go.

No, it's not! It's not!

No one's around! Of course you did.

I just... It's true that I followed you here, so that's what I said.

It's not like I told them that we have that kind of relationship.

Why are you bringing out wine and food?

Huh?

It's because I'm the only woman--

When there is only one woman, does she cook, bring food, and do laundry?

Of course, when there is only one woman--

Don't do that anymore.

We will bring the wine that we drink.

I am going back to Ikhwari.

Hey, have you gone mad?

- Gil Dong, Ikhwari is-- - Will Prince Choongwon let you in?

You can't. We barely made it out alive.

How could we return to Ikhwari?

I've already told you that.

Heo Tae Hak has his eye on crumbs

so he's standing right by Prince Choongwon.

- What about Magistrate Eom? - He can't meddle in our business at all.

I hear he's just wasting wine with courtesans in his arms.

He is pathetic.

Just to protect that magistrate post

he sold his friend.

Exactly, sir.

By the way...

you'd promised me a position in the Royal Finance Department.

Have you made any progress?

- Am I your servant? - Pardon? Pardon, sir?

Comes and go as he's told. Isn't that a servant?

Sir.

You ask me to go to the Royal Finance Department and guarantee your status

so I say, "Yes" and run over there.

Then I am also your servant.

Say, "Come here!" as you'd call a servant.

Then I'd run right over there.

Sir!

Come on! Try it!

Come here.

Come here!

Come here!

Come here!

I told you to bring me Ah Mo Gae's daughter alive.

But you couldn't even do it.

Gil Dong, the era of the Elder is over now.

If we work together

we won't be as well off as before, but we'll be able to feed ourselves.

Forget Ikhwari.

If you're really angry

let's go take Prince Choongwon's head at night.

I don't want it that way.

I have to see Prince Choongwon getting mocked in broad daylight

and paying for his sin.

What's wrong with you?

Didn't you say you wanted to be a farmer?

Things have changed.

They crushed my father's body and killed my siblings.

Are you the only greedy one? I have greed, too.

But it's not the time for greed.

Do you know the reason we had been able to live a good life?

It's all because of the Elder's reputation.

But look! The Elder has been broken--

Why are you doing this?

Brothers.

Please help me.

What does Ikhwari mean to us?

How did Father and you establish Ikhwari together?

That Ikhwari fell apart with one cough from Prince Choongwon.

Yes, I wanted to raise cows and plant beans and barley.

Then I thought Father, Eo Ri Ni, and all of you would be safe.

But that wasn't the case.

Whether we live well or not didn't depend on what we did.

Father said goodbye to Mother as he tried to buy freedom for us.

His knees got crushed for not running an errand for Prince Choongwon.

Now I know.

There are people who can't stand to see us live like human beings.

It's not that they are evil.

It's because we're not human in their eyes.

Then is it their fault?

No. It's our fault.

- What? - Why is it our fault?

When they look at us and say that we're not human

we say, "Right, we're not human" and have our heads down.

Then they say, "See? They're not human!"

How is it different from those who live as ones below human beings?

I hated that my father was a gangster and I was scared.

But I can show an example to Prince Choongwon...

I will also live as a gangster.

I can become something worse than a gangster.

I am scared of nothing anymore.

Brothers.

Just tell me that you'd rather not live as human beings anymore.

They may let you live if you're not human.

But, Brothers...

Would you live that way?

Not as human beings, but as animals...

Would you live that way?

Have you lost your mind?

I remember the old days. Don't you remember?

What did the monk say?

Since your father stuck to what he knew all his life

did he say that your father would rest in peace in heaven?

Bastard!

I'm going to kill you!

Let go of me!

All right. So, what do you plan to do from now on?

- Uncle. - Go ahead.

First, we will catch Heo Tae Hak and set a trap for Prince Choongwon.

Catch Heo Tae Hak first?

It'll get warm soon.

You want to catch Prince Choongwon?

Yes.

Crazy bastard.
