What are they doing? Where are they taking them?

They're going to the Ministry of Justice.

I will take away his position and exile him.

Your Highness, I heard Dr Hur

was taken to the Ministry of Justice.

I couldn't stop it.

She suffered from heartache and became unconscious.

How is she?

It's myocardial infarction.

Then...

I think it will be difficult for her to live.

Is there really no other way?

I'm sorry, Your Highness.

Go and bring Dr Hur.

- Do something. - Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness, Dr Hur is here.

Let him in.

Check the queen.

It's myocardial infarction.

Teacher, teacher!

It's myocardial infarction.

I will check her pulse.

For Jin Shim Tong, I need to apply So Hap Hyang Won.

But where could I get it in this deep forest?

Here, take the long needle and apply it at B-15.

How can I?

So if you had applied acupuncture at B-15 with long needle

and placed moxa cautery at CV-17,

then he might have alive,

I will apply long needle at B-15.

Apply it.

I haven't...

Hurry!

Acupoint is where the vital energy is gathered.

One can die if acupuncture is not applied properly.

So you must find the correct acupoint.

How is the queen?

Dr Hur is applying acupuncture.

I'm not sure if we should let him.

We're putting the queen's life into a criminal's hands.

What a crazy thing to do!

Gongbin queen's life is in the hands of Dr Hur anyway.

The queen's health is a more important consideration than

thinking whether it is right or wrong.

Place some salt.

Place ginger.

Place moxibustion.

Light the fire.

Remove the moxibustion.

How is she? Can she live?

I think the crucial moment is over.

But we can't be relieved.

You said the crucial moment is over.

If myocardial infarction reoccurs, out of 10, 8 or 9 will die.

For now, I've just relaxed the pain. But

the sickness is not cured.

Myocardial infarction can reoccur

in the next 3-4 days.

I also think it's too early to be relieved, Your Highness.

You should assign another person to attend the Royal families

and look after the queen's health with Dr Hur.

Yes, Your Highness.

Dr Hur.

Yes, Your Highness.

I have trust in you.

You must save her.

Is it the teaching of Yoo Weetae to apply long needle

in Shim Soo Hyul and let the energy circulate?

Yes.

It was too late to penetrate the blocked energy and circulate it.

Good job.

The next 3-4 days is the crucial period.

When the next critical moment occurs, it's effective to place

1 spoon of musk under the tongue.

What do you mean Dr Hur is looking after

the queen's health?

Wasn't there already an order to take away his position?

Since even the Royal Physician couldn't do anything,

the King called for Dr Hur.

And what happened?

He must have been able to handled it.

There was an order for him to be in charge of the queen's health,

until she is healed.

Then it means Dr Hur is remitted from his punishment?

We can't be sure yet.

If he does a good job this time, who knows?

The investigation is over. It's too late to reverse it.

Mr. Jang, I have something to tell you.

Is it about Hong Choon again?

Stop being so impatient.

I said stop worrying and just wait!

But her progress is...

Come on. You said you will look after her.

As you know, Hong Choon has Hak Jil.

But he is just being impatient.

But there is just no progress.

Hong Choon might die.

Please look after her, OK?

Hey! If it's Hak Jil, as these two say,

she will be alright after drinking just a few packs of herbs.

A patient doesn't get better with your impatience.

You fool!

Dr Hur! Why are you there?

If it was you, you would have cured her.

Because of that lame doctor, Hong Choon is so sick.

Dr Hur...

Gae Geum! I was looking for you.

How many times have I told you if the chief nurse finds

out I will die? Give this to Hong Choon.

What is it this time?

It's chicken soup.

Please feed this to her.

I'm indebted to you.

OK.

The chief is nearly dying, how can she eat this?

Gae Geum!

Mr. Oh...

You bitch!

I picked the wrong person.

You fool!

Hong Choon!

I will make Oh Doo Jeok Seok JI Hwan,

using Zanthoxylum piperitum, Oh Doo, Boo Ja and Jeok Seok.

Oh Doo Jeok Seok Ji Hwan/ Used when heartache is bad

Also, serve Gwa Joo Hae Baek Ban Ha Tang, using

Gwa Joo Ban Ha Hae Baek and Jin Pi Baek Gu Doo.

Yes, sir...

The officers and patrols from Ministry of Justice are

watching every action that Dr Hur takes.

Uh, excuse me...

What?

Do you know anything about Dr Hur of Public Hospital?

The doctor called to Jinsook Palace?

I heard he is looking after Gongbin queen's health, under the King's order.

Mrs. Hur.

Any news from Dahee and Joon?

No...

Ma'am, please take this decoction to regain your strength.

No, I'm fine.

Ma'am!

Prepare same decoction after 2-3 hours.

Yes, Doctor.

Sit down.

How is she?

I think she's showing progress.

Your medication is showing effect.

I will stay here. So go and get some sleep.

I'm fine.

You shouldn't push your body.

To be able to look after the health of theRoyal families

and the people, you must, first, maintain your own health.

King's order is not said yet.

Don't give up hope just yet.

Sir...

So Hyun.

Ye Jin, what are you doing here?

I came here as a messenger for the chief.

Is she doing well?

Yes.

So Hyun...

I heard Dr Hur is here at Jinsook Palace.

He is looking after Gongbin queen.

What about his investigation by the Ministry of Justice?

I'm not sure, we will have to wait a bit longer.

Don't worry.

He is looking after Gongbin queen with his best effort.

So if she shows progress,

he will have good news, won't he?

Dr Hur! Queen has regained consciousness.

Dr Hur...

Can you recognize me?

The King is here.

No, Gongbin. Don't get up.

Your Highness...

Do you know how worried I was?

Forgive me, Your Highness.

No, thank you for waking up.

Thank you, Your Highness.

How is she?

Can I not worry about her now?

If her weakened body is taken care of...

I think she has passed the crucial moment.

Thank you.

If it weren't for Royal Physician and Dr Hur,

the little princes might have lost their mother.

Thank you, Your Highness.

I heard the queen has shown progress.

Yes, thanks to many officers' efforts,

Gongbin is much better.

Thank you, Your Highness.

Your Highness, I'm sorry to say this

but since the queen has shown progress,

I think you should assign another doctor to her, from now on.

Although Dr Hur cured the queen's sickness,

he is a criminal under investigation.

Letting such person be in charge of the queen's health

would be damaging the Court's authority and discipline.

Please take Dr Hur down

from his current job and let another doctor be in charge.

Please relieve those who think it's unfair in and outside the Court.

Dr Hur saved Gongbin.

Can we not discharge him for his work?

However, his punishment was decided as per the national law.

If the Ministry has to reverse their decision that was a result of investigation,

for one Public Hospital doctor, how can we enforce our discipline?

Please consider it.

Please consider it.

There was an order to send you back to the Ministry of Justice.

Let's go.

Dr Hur!

Dr. Hur!

Dr. Hur...

- Sir! - What is it?

Even though Dr Hur improved Gongbin queen's condition,

he will be put back in jail.

What?!

Inbin queen is here.

Let her in.

Please go in.

Come in, please sit down.

What a surprise to see you here.

I should have visited you earlier and tendered my greetings.

I'm sorry I came so late. Please forgive me.

That's alright. Thank you for coming.

Give it to me.

What is it?

It's decoction.

I heard it's important to regain lost strength

to overcome the sickness.

I requested the doctor of In Gyung Palace to especially

prepared it for you. So, drink it and become healthy.

Thank you.

Is anyone inside?

Inbin queen is inside, Your Highness.

Inbin is?

Your Highness.

What brings you to Jinsook Palace?

I heard Gongbin queen was ill. So I prepared

a decoction for her.

You are very kind.

I only did what I should do.

I'm very happy to see you and that you're trying

to stay close with Gongbin.

But the friendship with her may be broken because of you.

What do you mean?

Do you know when you last came to In Gyung Palace?

It seems that you have forgotten about me.

I think I will get a heartache too.

Please excuse me.

I don't see Dr Hur.

Did anything happen to him?

Tell me.

He was put to jail again.

What?!

The King is here.

Sit down.

How are you doing?

I'm much better.

But, Your Highness...

Did you order Dr Hur to be put back to jail?

Please remit his punishment.

Didn't you see his medical skills and his sincerity?

He is too skillful to be abandoned for what he did 10 years ago.

I know.

I'm sure I want to have Dr Hur

near me more than you do.

But many senior statesmen are worried about the health of

Royal families and the Court's discipline.

I don't think they truly worry about the welfare of the Royal family.

If they did, shouldn't they let a person with so many achievements

and have excellent medical skills serve the Royal family?

How can they ask for the removal of Dr Hur

and send him to exile?

You must discharge Dr Hur.

Their request is logical, but ...

I would like to cover Dr Hur's wrongdoings.

What do you think?

I believe his skills will become useful to the Court.

But I think you should take care

before you issue any order regarding Dr. Hur.

It's very obvious that they will

make appeals, if you ask for their opinion first.

Where are you going, Your Highness?

The King is here.

The King is here.

Sit down.

I am going to discharge Dr Hur, but let him continue with his medical job.

Your Highness!

I know my decision will buy you worries.

But I've thought much about it/ So, abide by my decision.

Dr Hur violated the law and rule of social status.

How can we forgive such a person

and maintain discipline in the country?

It can't happen, Your Highness.

I'm already decided.

Please reconsider, Your Highness.

Listen!

This order is being issued by my right as King.

If there is anyone who makes appeal in relation to this,

I will consider him as being disloyal

and punish him!

- Mr. Prime Minister. - Yes, Your Highness.

Go and release Mr. Hur!

Yes, Your Highness.

Please come out.

Am I going to the place of exile?

I was just ordered to bring you out.

I don't know where you're going next.

Congratulations.

Sir, I have a request I would like to make of you.

Before I go into exile ...

Please let me see my family.

You will see your wife soon.

Dahee!

Sir...

Go home with your wife.

Sir...

The King issued an order for you to be released.

It is superior than the national law.

No one can go against it.

It means he has much faith in you.

Your Highness...

You must return his kindness.

Gyum!

Mother, Father!

Gyum!

Mother!

Stretch it here, like this.

Do you have to make me do this?

Don't throw away food!

Whatever it is, do you have to make a man do this?

Hey!

Grandma! Mother and Father is here.

What is he talking about?

Grandmother!

- Joon! - Joon!

Mistress.

Joon.

Joon...

Dahee...

- Mother... - Dahee...

Welcome home.

Then all the crimes that were tying you down for these many years

have disappeared?

It was forgiven by the King.

What a grace... Mercy of Buddhist Goddess.

It's not just Buddhist Goddess.

The Sea God in East Sea, Mountain God in the front and rear mountains

What other divinities are there? Anyway, all gods of heaven and earth helped.

Yangtae, what are you doing?

Go and cut a cow's tail and bring some drink.

He suffered physically as well as mentally. We need to party.

Yes, of course.

- Call Ohgun as well. - OK, we should have a feast.

Let me join too.

Aw, my eyes.

Why does the smoke follow only me? I guess I'm too pretty.

Aw, my eyes.

I don't know what I should do.

Wait.

Ilsuh, I need to see you.

- What? - You know what?

I'm not sure how I should address Dahee.

Address her as what?

Didn't you hear she is a daughter of noble family?

When I didn't know, I just called her Dahee.

Now, I don't know what I should do.

Actually, you're right.

I knew she wasn't an average person.

How did you know?

Isn't it obvious?

She doesn't talk rudely like you, or act so impatiently.

She has dignity. You can't hide your roots.

Fine! I'm not noble family.

Thank you for taking care of mother and Gyum.

I just did what I had to do.

You're the one who had the hard time.

Please forgive our rudeness.

What's going on?

No.

Please speak lowly to us.

Please don't do this.

I didn't know you were from a noble family

and did things I shouldn't have.

If there is any grudge inside you, just release them.

Please don't say that.

After I met my husband, I threw away my social status.

Just treat me as before.

But how can we?

If I was still tied to my previous social status,

how could I have met nice people like you?

Can we really do that?

Yes.

If you say so, I will.

I boiled the cow's tail in the kitchen,

so you go and season it.

You're better at that than me, right?

I will prepare the meal, so go inside.

OK, OK, fine.

I'm not sure if we can really do that.

She says so.

OK!

Is that true?

Yes, Dr and Mrs. Hur were released.

What does that mean?

Doji said he will be removed from the Palace and go into exile.

The King forgave his crimes.

That's good...

I would like to go to Dr. Hur's place.

For what?

Didn't I treat her thoughtlessly making her do odd jobs,

not knowing that she is from a noble family?

Are you going to beg them or something?

Not that. I thought I should...

No!

She's only the wife of a herb collector to me.

She's a woman who washes clothes, stained with bloody pus,

to earn a bowl of grain or barley.

Hey!

- Dr Hur! - Sir.

You're so lucky.

I've been living on the Court's salary for over 10 years.

You're the first person to be released after an investigation.

He is lucky indeed. But to marry a girl from a noble family,

his skills must be pretty good, too.

All because of you, the other doctors had to worked so hard.

Since you've absent, now, you must work hard too.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Song and I will go to the Court. So treat the patients.

Yes, sir.

Good to have you back.

Sorry to cause trouble.

You're right.

If I think about how worried I was because of you,

I'll bet my life have been shortened by many years.

How will you compensate me for that, huh?

What are you thinking about?

A bowl of drink will do for him, you know.

Isn't it, sir?

A bowl is not enough. One jar sounds better.

Yes, of course.

Ye Jin

Dr Hur is here.

Really?

- Doctor! - Have you been well?

I'm sure you had a difficult time and I'm sorry to say this,

but I was waiting for you so desperately.

Is anything wrong?

Please go to the nurse's residence and look after Hong Choon.

Gosh!

I said there will be progress if you waited a bit.

I relied on your words,

and it's been 5 days already.

Please do something.

What is it?

I think she has Hak Jil,

but there is no progress even with the medicine.

What a annoying impatience.

By the way I see it, she won't last through tonight.

Dr Hur.

Please! She's going to die while her pulse getting checked.

How is she?

Dr Hur.

Make foxgloves juice and give it to her.

Foxgloves/ Good for lowering fever

Yes, Doctor.

The patient must have a good sleep, so let's go out.

Hong Choon, if you have to die, die just a little.

I would rather get Hak Jil.

What are you doing? Come out!

Oh, dear!

What sickness is it?

It's lonely sickness of single woman.

What is that?

Why won't you say anything?

I'm dying to know.

The person who will save Hong Choon is not Dr Hur, but you.

What do you mean?

When a man's energy is active, he thinks of women.

When a woman's energy is active, she wishes to have a baby.

That's the law of nature. But when a fully-grown woman lives alone

and the Yin is active, but there is no Yang, she wants to get Yang.

But as it can't be achieved there is a conflict and yin and yang fights inside

the body which causes heat. This symptom is similar to Hak Jil.

Then Yang?

I prescribed Shi Ho Uk Gan Tang, but it worked only short term.

Shi Ho Uk Gan Tang/ Prescription to control various symptoms from

To cure the root of the sickness, she must intake man's yang energy.

Rise of anger due to mental disorder from single life

Now you get it?

You save Hong Choon.

Well... I'm ready anytime, but...

I don't know about Hong Choon...

Gae Geum!

Do you know what chief has?

Isn't it Hak Jil?

It's not that.

Then what is it?

Lonely sickness?

- Yes. - Oh my god!

Quiet ones are the ones who cause trouble.

Was it because she wants a man?

What are you laughing about?

I should get married before

I get such a nasty sickness too.

Take this.

It's so wonderful.

Even if you don't say it, the body says it all for you.

What do you mean?

Do you know what sickness you have?

Didn't doctor say it's Hak Jil?

It's not that, it's lonely sickness.

I've only heard about it.

It's first time to see patient.

What do you think of Mr. Lim?

He's a bit childish, but

his nature seems good. So, get married before it becomes later.

Chief...

Sir! Did you hear that?

What is it?

Inbin queen is pregnant.

Is that true?

The Royal Physician checked the pulse.

The decoction you gave Inbin queen must have shown effect.

Mr. Yoo, the Royal Physician would like to see you. So go.

Dr. Hur, there was a message that the Royal Physician would like to see you.

Go to the Palace now.

If you work for me,

I will give you a chance...

Do you know what I mean?

Dr. Hur, you finish up at the Public Hospital

and become the Court doctor of Jinsook Palace and look after Gongbin queen.

Sir, I think it's too early for me to become Court doctor.

Gongbin queen requested the King and received the approval.

So don't say anymore and do it.

Mr. Yoo, you become the Court doctor of In Gyung Palace

and look after Inbin queen, who is pregnant.

I will look do my best.
