Episode 3

This Eun-young palace from right now. It was 140 years ago,

in 1866 when myung-suh received training.

This place has a deep meaning.

I congratulate you, Shin Chaegyung to be able to receive training here.

What?

Put it on the side.

Shin Chaegyung, these are the materials you need to study.

What? All of that?

To eat is to eat (for.).

To cry is to cry (for.).

To gargle is to gargle (for.).

To wash face is to wash face (for.).

To be sick is to be sick (for.)

Why are they making everything complicated by saying it differently?

They should just say it as how it is written.

I'm going crazy! How am I going to memorize all of this?

The Queen has arrived!

Where can I possibly start to teach this girl?

I'm sorry, your Highness.

I told the students to take care of her.

Please wake up.

You have to wake up.

Stop it.

- Please wake up. - Please wake up.

Mom, I just want to sleep a little more.

- You have to wake up. - Just leave her alone.

She must be tired.

She probably didn't get any sleep.

Nothing must go wrong with the wedding etiquette,

so that the Bride fetching ceremony can go on smoothly.

She makes a lot of mistakes so train her well to be a Princess.

Yes, your Highness.

And furthermore, let her realize that the palace rules are extremely strict.

Yes, your Highness.

Note down carefully the things she learned,

the things she did right and the things she did wrong

during her training time.

I have high expectations of your skill of doing this during this time of training.

Yes, your Highness.

Where did she go?

Did you happen to see the Princess-to-be?

Where did she go?

We're in trouble! We're going to get scolded for this.

What do we do? If we get caught by Sang Gung Mama.

We're dead. I can't believe this!

What are you two doing?

You immature fools!

The thing is..

I told you take care of her.

But look at what happened!

Do you think the palace is your playground?

We're sorry.

That's not it, Sang Gung Mama.

It wasn't their fault, it was my fault.

No, none of it is your fault.

Who is she? She is going to be our future Princess.

Are you going to mess up again?

No, it won't happen again.

It won't happen again.

- umm.. - Be quiet!

I will protect your faults for now.

The Dae Rae Bok to be worn on the Bride fetching ceremony is ready.

Please go now.

Dae rae bok? What is that?

You'll know when you get there. Hurry.

Please go now.

I ask you how are you nowadays?

When the sun shines through the windows, I yearn for you.

Even in my dreams I want to meet you,

If I could just see your footsteps forever.

The stone path in front of the door has turned into sand.

Suh Sang Gong, is there any news from Hye jung?

She's still finishing up some business in England so she hasn't left yet.

Tomorrow the imperial household is holding a big ceremony.

Wouldn't it be great if the whole family could be here?

Hye jung doesn't think its time for that to come yet.

Suddenly separated from her husband by death, it was have been very traumatizing for her.

She was to become Queen but was kicked out of the palace because of the imperial law.

She must have so much pain and hurt in her heart.

Yes, your Highness.

When Majesty Hye jung thinks of Majesty Isang,

She heartbreakingly longs for you.

By the way suh sang gong, weren't you the nanny of both Prince Hyo Ryul and Prince Hwi Sung?

Yes.

If things had gone according to those pictures..

Crown Prince, Hyo Ryul would have already taken the position..

Both mother and son would be sitting on Queen's and Crown Prince's position as well.

There's no use talking about the past.

It's all useless now.

Since there's a big ceremony tomorrow, I told you to rest today.

Since I was stubborn and it came out to this.

Okay I will listen to you, my wife.

Fortunately, you look a lot better.

Since I'm taking this medicine, how can there not be good results?

But you have to still be careful.

There's no such dangerous illness such as this one.

Okay.

I'll be very careful so stop worrying about me.

How's the training going for the Princess-to-be?

She is receiving her training, but...

she can't grasp the basics so it is very hard to train her.

I'm worried about tomorrow's ceremony,

but I'm also worried how we will train her from now on.

Don't think of her as someone inferior and let's just train her at a slow pace.

This isn't a situation where we can allow room with that thinking, your Majesty.

We had a lot of problems training our son.

And look at our son's behavior.

So therefore,

I'm going to make sure there is consistency for the Princess' training.

If you force the training on a child who grew up outside of the palace too hard,

wouldn't the situation at the palace be hard for her?

The situation with the Princess is my job.

Concerning the Princess' training, you have to leave it up to me.

You've worked hard on the training.

Well, they've worked harder than me. Is class is over now?

Yes. The training that was prepared for you is finished.

Starting from now, you'll recite everything you learned at training.

What?

First off, explain the etiquette for tomorrow's ceremony.

Everything?

Yes. Everything.

First, the King will confers rank and title of the Prince's legal wife.

Then I come to the eun-young palace, then I receive the confer.. of...

- Confers of rank.. confers of rank.. - Confers of rank?

This isn't working. Roll up your sleeves.

What?

I gave orders that there shouldn't be any mistakes.

What are you doing? Roll up your sleeves now!

How dare you disregard the Palace's laws and regulations?

Are you now trying to discredit the Royal family's name?

Wait a minute, I think I remember now.

Oh, that's right.

After the confers of the Crown Princess ends, I've to accept the title of the Prince's legal wife.

And then, the King will bestow the ceremonial wine to the Crown Prince,

Before the Bride fetching ceremony starts and lecture him on the Ancestors sayings.

After that, it's the Bride fetching ceremony.

the Crown Prince will then come to the Eun-young palace from the Bae palace.

After the exchanges of the Pigeon ceremony ends, he'll be taking the Crown Princess back to his palace.

Then, we'll accept the blessings of the people as we ride through the streets.

After returning at the palace, the Prince and Princess will go through the Tong Ne ceremony.

And it means the ceremony of the first night together, after they eat and drink the ceremonial wine and food.

And then the whole wedding ceremony will end here.

You did very well.

During that time I practiced a lot.

What? Jo-la? What does that mean?

It means a lot.

Before you said it was cold, how does it feel now?

I'm comfortable.

How did you like the new medicine. Does it fit your to your taste well?

Yes, it does.

Then, I will go.

Your Majesty and Yi Sung Goon.

Both of you rest well.

Are you comfortable? Do you feel at ease?

No, I'm totally uncomfortable.

Let's go.

Where?

To visit Chaegyung at the Eun-young palace.

Let's go together. You said that she's in the same class as you are.

No, I don't want to go.

If a pretty boy comes, she'll like it.

Go by yourself.

Since she must be tired after all that training.

She'll like it if your buy her some chocolates or candies for her.

Do I have to buy stuff like that for her?

Shouldn't she be honored that I'm at least visiting her?

You're going there to comfort her.

Since she's a girl, she'll like stuff like that.

It's such a nuisance.

But, you know Chaegyung, since she's a Princess now,

she wouldn't pretend to not know us, right?

Well, if it was me, I wouldn't want to be around my friend .

Hey! If you make it like that, do you think you'll be able to see it on the streets?

That's why we prepared something.

We are the Princess' friends, Jisu-Sesu.

I'm Jisu.

I'm Sesu.

We are Jisu and Sesu.

I'm speechless.

They said no one could come in here.

Am I anybody?

I just thought I had to see what you looked like before we got married.

Yul sent it.

You know Yul right? He's in your class.

Yul?

Who's Yul?

He said girls like that kind of stuff.

Since its obvious that you can't eat stuff like that here.

He said if I gave it to you that you'll like it so he packed it for you.

You weren't here crying because you wanted to see you parents, right?

What is it?

No, it's nothing.

To be honest, there is one condition for you for marrying me.

I asked for our quarters to be in chang-dok palace.

Then your quarters will be far away from the elders.

And we'll receive less scrutiny from the elders.

So, about once a month you can visit your parents without the elders knowing.

And what else was there..

You can invite your friends to the palace for a party.

Oh, this is good.

You can invite your family to the hwang-shil resort and spend your vacation there.

Have you ever had an overseas vacation?

And what else was there?

Stop it.

I said stop it.

If that's how you're going to comfort me.

Okay, this was what Yul wrote down for me.

What I can promise is just power.

What?

When I get a little older, when I can do things without anyone blocking my path.

And if by then you can't stand being here and want to leave the palace.

I won't be able to stand a wife that's longing for her mom,

I can let you go.

But I'm a Crown Prince to be a King.

Though I'm still young. I know a divorce isn't easy to get.

So, just tell me right before you're about to really die,

because then I'll give you a divorce.

We have to give thanks to our father.

You start first.

You're doing all these peculiar things.

Father, just like you said. Our Chaegyung is getting married.

I apologize for not believing in you and ignoring when you told us about this.

Thanks to you we're saved, Father.

Please help Chaegyung not get into any accidents in the palace.

Chaejoon, say something to your grandpa.

Grandpa, please let me get more muscular faster so that I can become be popular at school.

What's our house rules?

Too much is as bad as too little. Let's not overreact.

You memorized everything you're something to say at the ceremony, right?

Oh that: Never forget to be respectful and obey. And trust and follow your parents words..

follow and.. what was it again?

Oh, really. Its been how many weeks and you still can't memorize that!

When we go there and if you still make a mistake, I'm really going to divorce you.

Are you really going to say this on your daughter's wedding day?

I'm just saying its that important.

I know!

Work hard from the time you wake up to the time you go to sleep.

Never forget to be respectful and obey, trust and follow your parent's words all day.

Ok, Let's go, let's go!

Recite it one more time.

Gong..

Gong..

Be the best couple. Carry on the ways of our Ancestors.

Obey all instructions without any protest and let him receive descendants, be respected and not be sick.

I, Shin, will respectfully accept this position.

I will not forget your orders.

There is going to be a royal ceremony soon.

And this many people are waiting for the ceremony to start.

There's so many people gathered in front of the palace!

Yes your Majesty.

It's like the 2002 Worldcup, a warm opening.

I didn't know that there would be that much people gathered for this ceremony.

This must all be that there is a lot of interest in the Crown Prince.

Yes, your Majesty.

That's because there has never been a Crown Princess selected from the Commoners

in the histories of the Royal family. So that's why it became like this.

Yes, that's right.

Since the confers of rank and the Ancestors sayings parts should be over by now,

they're probably starting the Bride fetching ceremony.

It's really important that the inexperienced Crown Princess shouldn't make mistakes.

If the Princess makes a mistake then..

The Sang Goon is there to help her out, so don't worry about it.

That's right. It'll be like this..

It'll be a chance to let the Public witness our great traditions..

The wedding ceremony must be completed without a single mistake at all.

Yes, your Majesty.

The Prince has just arrived here now, Princess.

The ceremony is about to start so please go out to the Nowon land, your Majesty.

Please enter..

Come through the west side stairs.

Come closer.

Hey, you see the screen over there, right? Over there I, no I mean the Princess is our friend.

That's right. She's our friend and we are really close to her.

These people are saying that they are the Princess' friends.

And that means we are friends with Dong Bang Shin Ki.

What? What is he saying?

So what he's saying is that we're total liars.

Where's my cellphone? The picture that I took with Chaegyung?

We're at Eun-young palace right now.

Right now at the Eun-young palace the ceremony is taking place.

All the public's eyes are now focusing on the palace.

Expressing their concerns for the new Crown Princess, Shin Chaegyung.

Lee Sang Goon.

You came, elder Jang.

What are you doing here now?

I'm watching it from the TV.

The elders are waiting for you at eun young palace.

Does it make sense that you, Lee Sang Goon still hasn't come yet?

It's because of those clothes. They said I had to wear those clothes.

Is it just because of those clothes that you haven't come yet?

And, and I just..

Lee Sang Goon,

haven't you forgotten about the last Crown Prince that passed away, have you?

You have to remember to attend the ceremony this coming fall with Hye Sang Goon, too.

Let's go now.

Crown Prince come up the east side of the stairs.

13hrs a day. Practiced every single day for a year.

And now the time they can provide is just a mere 5 minutes

So don't make any mistakes Hyorin.

Are you nervous?

Yes.

It will be okay.

Arrival of the Crown Princess.

What?

Crown Prince please bow and present the ceremonial tribute

Father of Crown Princess. Please present ceremonial speech to the Crown Princess

Show respect and follow the orders, listen to the elderly

Mother of Crown Princess. Please present ceremonial speech to the Crown Princess

Show respect and follow the orders, listen to the elderly

Show respect and follow the orders, listen to the elderly

The Crown Prince is currently freeing the goose

There are thousands of people waiting outside the palace to catch a glimpse of the royal couple

Everything is going the way as planned. No mistakes, this is weird.

He must know that we are all watching, thus he is trying his best not to make any mistakes

What is this?!

Oh my god. Why is there a sudden strip show?!

It's kids like this that cause the most trouble

But I think his figure is better than Yong Joo

Please pardon any imperfections in the ceremonies.

This way please.

Crown Prince Lee Shin and Crown Princess Shin Chaegyung are currently on their way on the parade grounds

I was quite worried as the time for formal etiquette lessons was limited

But to my surprise there weren't any mistakes made. This is so fortunate.

Yes, mama.

You have put in a lot of effort.

Further educate the Crown Princess in the matters of etiquette and thus allow her to become an undisputed royal.

Yes, mama. I will follow your orders.

The King's condition has become stable because of his contentment over the wedding. I'll try to assist you all I can..

I will try my best to help mama.

I suppose there will be generation gap between a growing teenager and me who is living the latter years of my life.

I hope the Queen can help reduce the gap between us.

I feel emotional today.

The people of Goong have to give their best to the countless citizens.

What do the endless cheers exhibit?

It exhibits a new revolution and also shows a new age has arrived for the royal family.

It also includes the eager expectations and anticipations of the young Crown Princess.

Likewise it also exhibits the respect shown for the entire royal family

Are you here to join in the enter palace event?

Eh? Oh ya.

But what are you doing here?

I am taking a stroll.

Is the dowager at the dowager residence?

Yes, she was very anxious about the wedding.

The burden is finally off her shoulders now.

Your parents wedding is as if it just happened yesterday.

At that time, your father, the Crown Prince should supposedly be King.

But time changed everything

You look so much like your father and just looking at you reminds me of the sad past.

Chaegyung ah!! Look here!

I thought you said she is your friend?

She don't even acknowledge her friends?

YA! cheer up! Let's eat and cheer up all right?

I feel like eating ginseng chicken

Look at you. I feel like eating that too

Everything is sold out. We have too many customers today. Sorry.

Please move into the centre of the room.

Yes.

I represent all the officials to send our blessings and congratulations.

Shin Goon! Shin Goon, help!

Now, the Crown Prince is my bro-in-law.

Did u see? Good!

Noisy fellow.

The first lady in the Republic of Korea.

Hello?

Oh, Yanchong's mom?

Thank you.

The new insurance polices will be out.

Oh okay. I will get in touch with you.

Hello?

How are you?

You watched the TV?

Yes, it's is an honor for our family.

Chaegyung's mom? Wait a minute.

I don't want to answer that. I am tired. Say I am not around.

Answer it, the family is congratulating us.

Congratulate us? Whatever for?

When we are on our wits ends, they avoided us like the plague.

And now they trying to butter up to us? Save it.

Forgive and forget. This is life.

Don't be so fierce and answer the phone.

Quickly.

Hello? How are you?

Insurance?

Based on the age, I think this kind of insurance is more suitable.

Thank you so much.

What? What did he say? He wants to buy insurance?

I told him to get it for the past 3 years and he refused.

But now he says that the whole family is getting it.

This is great!

Again?!

Shin Goon.

What? Shin Goon?

Yes! SHIN Goon!

How can you pretend not to know me and not do anything in that kind of circumstances?

Don't you think it's too much?

Whether is it ceremonial Crown or whatever

I had a 10kg ceremonial Crown on and my head felt like cracking.

Using that to hit the Prime Minister, not a bad idea.

It's just a bit shocking.

What kind of person is he?

He can tell me calmly that he wants a divorce in the future.

He can smile in such a serious wedding ceremony.

It seems that he has a very atrocious personality.

However, he smiled and waved warmly to the people at the parade grounds.

At times, he appears to be thinking a lot.

I really want to know what kind of person he is.

I have no idea what is going to happen in the future but no matter what, we are on the same boat from now on.

Please wake up, Binggungmama.

There are still some unfinished ceremonial procedures, Jeonha (your Majesty)

The wine table will be brought in shortly

Please prepare yourself Jeonha.

Binggungmama.

Yah wake up!

Yah! There are still some unfinished ceremonial procedures...

Ajuhma, it's too bland. You should add more salt.

My words of wisdom has been told..

Yah... stop pretending to be asleep!

Yah! Still not getting up?

The Tong Ne ceremony is supposed to be the first night together as husband and wife.

But due to the fact that both of you are still underage, the real ceremony will be done after both of you become adults.

So today, after consuming the wine and food prepared, it marks the end of the whole ceremony

Why does it have to be pushed back?

Eh?

The wedding night. Why do we have to push it back?

Is he crazy?

Don't look at me that way, rice cake.

What? Rice cake?

Even if you beg me, I wouldn't be interested in the wedding night

I only asked because I am curious, that's all

Isn't it ridiculous? Restricting us because of our age?

Is it not?

Well, let's eat.

Let's start with the ceremonial wine.

What? Not eating?

Of course I will eat.

The rice cake.

What is this?

The palace maids. They are supposed to stand guard.

But they are all falling asleep.

I am so tired. I might as well just sleep right here.

So you are okay with it?

Yah! What are you doing? Get up.

Didn't you hear what she said just now?

We sleep in different rooms. Isn't it this way?

Is it so?

Then I'll get going.

Yah!

What?

How can you just leave me alone?

Then what do you want me to do?

Please guide me along the way.

Honestly speaking, Goong is a very unfamiliar place to me.

But you have lived here all your life so you won't feel that way.

But if you just think that because I am your husband and that I have the responsibility to take care of you.

Then that I can't promise you.

Caring about the people around me or putting myself in others shoes, I can't do that either.

Understand?

I know it's my flaw. But I can't change it. It's my personality I was born with.

So what I mean is...

Don't make such a face. I'm feeling sorry here.

As a friend, I can listen to your hardship if you want.

How about it?

Who asked you to back me up? Don't make me laugh~!

What the heck are you doing?

Friends? What friends?

I only said it out of courtesy. You petty jerk!

You are really narrow-minded! so so!!

You are really...

Jeoha, please calm down!

Let go!

You tried to kick me the other time and now you bit me?

You violent woman!

Lalala. I cant hear a thing.

This is weird. Why can I only hear my voice?

Oh Shin Goon, good-bye.

Let go.

That bad jerk.

Do you think I wanna ask for your help?

It's just that for a split second you looked so handsome.

So I wanted to know you better.

That's why I said what I said.

Bad jerk, this is totally disappointing.
