That person asked me:

Then

what do you want to live as now?

What would you like to live as?

Kang Chi.

How did it go?

What did the Admiral say?

What?

Did he scold you?

Did you get into a lot of trouble?

and I...

I asked her,

"Why?"

Don't, Father... Kang Chi didn't do anything wrong.

It's not Kang Chi's fault!

Move aside.

How is it...

that you...

keep being so good to me?

Just because...

I want to do anything I can for you.

Because that's how I feel right now.

That's why

I want to be human.

I...

I want to be human again.

No, you can't.

I'm not going to go easy on him, Father.

Compared to the other students, I'll be twice...

No 3 times

more demanding with his training.

Just leave it to me!

Gon,

you take care of Kang Chi's training.

Gon and Kang Chi... Just don't let the two of them be together, Father.

Even if their eyes just meet, they'd be rumbling off and fighting each other.

I need to be standing between them.

So I would also do it.

Do you really want to see Kang Chi get kicked out?

If you do that,

you should know that it just gets harder for Kang Chi.

Master!

Just this time, Miss Yeo Wool's words are right.

Choi Kang Chi and I are completely incompatible.

He listens a little bit more when Miss is there.

That's why,

please allow Miss Yeo Wool to do it with me.

Yes, Father!

What is this?

Starting from now, I've been ordered to look after you.

Look after?

You're going to look after me?

Of course, I will too.

Then..

What's with this bag of beans?

Starting now.. count all of the beans

in the bag.

What?!

You said you wanted to become a human.

That's the first step.

So do it with a happy heart. Got it?

How can we block flowing emotions?

Also, how can we block the wind that's blowing?

In case...

If later on he finds out I was the one that killed his father,

I'm worried that the two of them would get hurt.

Those worries

will become an uneasy future.

What we have to do

regarding young people's paths,

for us adults, it's not our job to block their way,

it's that we try to open up a better way

that they can go.

1232...

1233...

One thousand two hundred thirty-

-4. -By the way, Kang Chi...

About your parents... how did they die?

1235... 1236...

You really don't know anything?

Uh ho! You're confusing me!

Sorry.

1,235..

I think that's your last count.

1,236.

That too. I think you counted it..

Right.. Sorry.

Aish!

Again...

One.

By the way,

if it were me,

I think I would be really really curious.

Your father might be like that,

but you can ask about your mother's side.

What household was she from,

or maybe

if there were any relatives.

She abandoned her newborn baby in the river.

I'm not in the least bit curious about that kind of person.

How does he take to Joseon?

Well, with this and that, he's satisfied.

If I knew your master was coming in person,

we would've prepared more.

Anyway,

the Namdo Mountain occupation plan has been achieved faster than expected.

Didn't I tell you I'd finish quickly?

Finishing with this 100 Year Inn,

and not only the Namdo Mountain properties,

inspectors and soldiers,

and most officials,

I own all of them now.

(Japanese)

He said, "There still is an area that you do not control."

That's what he said..

I think he's worried about the admiral.

There are not many problems regarding it.

It won't take that long to clean them up.

Is that right?

Why are you like that, My Lord?

Their intelligence is deeper than expected.

They seem to know a lot about the situation here.

Monitor the subordinates carefully.

We might have a mole.

Yes. I understand.

This is odd,

the head is a woman.

Are you okay?

Ma'am.

What was that?

Huh?

What?

What's wrong, Kang Chi?

Are you sick somewhere?

I don't know.

It's something weird...

Why am I like this?

Suddenly I'm really scared.

Your energy has been weakened.

Energy has been weakened?

There is a perfect medicine to eat at times like this;

a special one.

It's ginseng water that has been

fermented with careful dedication.

If you drink all of this,

the energy that has been subdued inside of you

will be released and

your weakened energy will rise again.

Are you selling medicines?

Once I have a successor to take over,

I want to pursue my dream of opening a traveling apothecary and

going sightseeing all over the world!

I'll sell my special medicines, travel, see people, find a partner...

Let's just keep it at sightseeing...

Looking for a partner at your age, is a bit too much.

You're too outlandish!

Look now, my mind

is still a lot more youthful than yours!

A dog passing by would laugh at that!

Give my medicine back!

Do you have a possible successor in mind?

Well..

There is someone I'm considering

but his temper...

is quite explosive.

Those people who get mad if you just touch them, won't ever listen to words.

You have to teach them and get their respect through physical punishment.

Should I...

teach him a lesson?

Forget it!

Just go and count those beans.

Is my head the village drum?

Why are you always hitting me there?

You said you can only learn by getting hit.

What?

Forget it. Go and count the beans.

Seong

K-kang Chi hyungnim.

This kid. Why are you so surprised?

It's nothing...

Oh, right!

I am supposed to bring some firewood...I forgot that.

Then..

Hello there!

Hey Kim Seo Young!

About what happened before, I am truly sorry.

I seemed to have lost my senses.

It's not something you need to be sorry for. I'm the one who attacked you first.

However, I also did what I had to do.

A scary creature like that..

It was my first time seeing one.

Did you call for me?

I have something to give you so I asked for you. Sit down.

There's something your father asked me to give you.

From Father?

If something happens to me,

please give this to Tae Seo, Master Dam.

Moo Sol, how can you say those things?

Its about facing the Bi Jo, Master Dam.

He is someone who is unpredictable.

If something unforeseen comes,

please pass on my words.

I..

I truly loved and cared for him...

that I would be thankful if he became a great man to takeover the Hundred Year Inn.

Moo Sol..

was the one who carried the symbol of Chrysanthemum, among the Four Masters.

Through whatever profit he made,

he saved the hungry people, and for the nation,

he supported those with good intent and purpose.

The reason I am passing this on to you,

means for you to carry on your Father's will,

as well as the important task that is before you.

However, of course, it is your choice whether you will take on that task or not.

We will respect your decision, either way.

Please tell me. What is it that you have for me to do?

Become one of Jo Kwan Woong's people.

4861, 4862...

4863... 63...

Then..

It was my first time seeing such a monstrous being.

The truth is

I'm also curious.

What kind of people are they, those who gave birth to me.

Why they abandoned me in the river?

While thinking about those things, without me knowing, I might resent them.

I might hate them.

That's why...

So thanks a lot, Yeo Wool. For asking me.

By the way, what was that just now..

It's something where you'll have to put your life on the line.

Can you be responsible for it?

Hey! Park Tae Seo!

My father...

How much did he know about you?

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. He never mentioned anything about it to me before.

When you change to that form,

what kind of feeling is it?

My mind goes blank.

My whole body hurts as though it will burn.

Everything becomes extremely sensitive.

In a split second, I can see and hear thousands of movements and sounds all at once...

Maybe it's because of that? But I feel very hungry.

Then, at that time, you too..

do you remember that you're Kang Chi?

At first, I couldn't remember.

And then little by little I accepted the fact that that's me.

Then I started to remember.

After that I could control my emotions.

So that's how it is...

Actually, Yeo Wool has helped a lot.

That punk saw me when I turned to a divine creature without being disgusted,

and without being scared.

She continued calling me as Kang Chi.

That's why I

continued to remember being Choi Kang Chi.

Strangely, when I'm with that punk

my heart feels at ease.

The pain subsides, and

unreasonable anger settles down as well.

-You love her, don't you? -Umm.

Umm.

Hmm?

No, what do you mean 'love'?

Me? Toward that person?

Ey! It's definitely not that, Tae Seo!

There's no reason to deny it.

Because even if you keep a loving heart for her,

she is not someone who doesn't deserve it. Lady Yeo Wool is...

I already told you it's not that!

It's just that punk, how should I say this..

So, how should I say this..

If it's because of Cheong Jo,

don't be concerned about that.

To you, Cheong Jo is now

a person from your past.

You.. What are you saying?

A person from my past?

You and Cheong Jo, to me, can never just be people from my past.

To me, you're my only family, friends, and people I have to protect.

I'm saying you should now free yourself from that, Kang Chi!

The moment Father died, you and I, and Cheong Jo,

our fates have been separated into different paths.

Just as time passed can't be turned back,

the fates that have been separated already,

cannot be turned back.

It can't be turned back, but it can be taken back.

My Lord's 100 Year Inn, and also the family,

I'll take it all back.

That's something I need to do.

Instead of me, My Lord died while blocking me.

Even if it weren't you, even if it were someone else, he would still have blocked it.

Because Father was that kind of person.

That's why it's not your fault, Kang Chi.

The sacrifice you showed us up to now, for our entire family,

even just for that, I'm so grateful I don't know what to do.

So, don't let yourself be shackled by me and my sister anymore, and

live your life.

Because as precious as the 100 Year Inn is,

to me, you're also

a precious friend. Huh?

Kang Chi! Are you in there?

To be frank, training with someone like that is just so uncomfortable.

What if he turns again suddenly,

and hurts one of us, what will we do?

Also, last night, he went somewhere unknown

and came back at dawn.

Anyways, we can't do it like this.

We have to expel him from here.

That's right! That's right!

We need to kick him out!

Who's there?

W-Who are you?

You're not supposed to grasp the drum sticks that tight.

You should hold them softly. Again!

Elegantly, like the butterfly in flight,

using the rebound of the wrist,

Tung!

Your feet should be spread from front to back, but keep your balance on the left foot, and

to the rhythm of the beat, repeat the movement.

Again.

Head Gisaeng?

Uh Ho!

Who said you could pay attention to something else while practicing?

What kind of wrong behavior is this?

Why are you teaching Cheong Jo all of your skills?

Your shoulder is too far in.

Hold back your chin a little more.

What are you doing?

Can't you pick up the drum sticks this instant?

Why isn't it me, but this wench?

Am I not the best Gisaeng in Choonhwagwan?

What is the standard for being the best Gisaeng here?

If it were someone decent looking, and

who knew how to smile at the men, is that the standard here?

If that were so, I guess it's true that you're the best Gisaeng in here.

Why do you look down on me, and are condescending towards me?

What did I do wrong?

From the get-go, instead of being an artist,

you use make up to be in the arms of men.

Did you not take more pleasure pouring them the drinks?

Your reason for learning to play the drums, was also to impress the men.

Head Gisaeng!

These drums are not a toy that you tie on your breasts.

To you who considers the drums an ornament,

I cannot teach you my drum skills.

Cheong Jo, continue practicing what you just learned.

I'll come back later to check your progress.

Can you move aside?

Because I still need to practice.

You're so out of line.

Just because the Head Gisaeng likes you,

are you daring to tell me what to do?

Was it that?

Don't be so angry.

It makes you look ugly, Sister Wol Seon.

This bitch...

Just try laying your hand on my face one more time.

Then, I will do some damage to your face.

You..

This b*tch..

What really happened to Cheong Jo?

She changed so much, words can't explain.

Is it okay for us to act like nothing happened?

Don't ask me anything.

Don't be curious either.

Head Maid, can't your ears hear it?

That child is crying very sadly.

What. It's you?

Yes, it's me.

Why are you playing around in front of someone else?

Because you were falling asleep,

I was just playing a joke on a friend.

Hurry up and move!

An instructor like you shouldn't be fooling around like this.

Will the martial arts unit be well disciplined like that?

I guess you have to get scolded.

Watch you!

Why aren't you moving your arm?

How can an instructor be this weak?

You think you could be a good example like that?

You must be kidding me.

Why did you do that?

Condition one for strike back!

When desperate, go for the vulnerable spot.

I was going to kick somewhere it would hurt more, but I decided to just slightly bite. Be thankful.

I'm so thankful that tears are about to fall.

By the way, last night where did you disappear to?

Well I felt suffocated so I went out to get some air.

I heard you go out somewhere whenever it's nightfall.

The disciples are worrying about you.

Not worrying, but probably keeping a watch on me.

It's because they don't know what happened to you.

You also took a lot of time to accept it.

They need time to accept you as well.

You know that, too. Right?

But you know what?

You have been nagging at me a lot these days.

You know that?

Oh..

Did I? I'm sorry.

Did you know this, too?

What...now?

You...

Right now, you seem a bit like a woman.

Why are you so calm?

You should be hitting me now, don't you think so?

Are you now kidding with me?

Instructor! Instructor!

Oh Song. What happened?

That..

an urgent message came in!

An urgent message?

You see, what happened is

they found dead people in the forest.

People died?

Yes..

And it is, three people.

But..

Because their deaths look unnatural, they are saying it's not done by a human.

An 'energy sucked out' a murder case?

Choi Kang Chi, that bastard.

He's starting to show his true self faster than I expected.

When are you planning on letting the sheriff office know about his identity?

It's not the right time yet.

His scent for blood, leave him alone and let him go crazy for now.

An interesting rumor...

The further it spreads, the better.

Let the foolish public sentiment

create a consuming fear all around.

If they're scared, let them shiver all they want.

The larger the public sentiment, fear and fright gets,

the sword that I point at the Admiral

will be more powerful.

Request an accelerated solution to the fundamental problem, and tell him that all aid will be provided.

Yes, My Lord.

Also, due to the fundamental situation,

if anyone spreads the wrong rumors to the citizens,

they will be dealt with by the law,

and so from the highest officers to lowest soldiers,

keep their mouths shut.

Yes, I understand.

What do you have to see me for?

We have something to ask you, so we came here.

Father, please stop the disciples.

If we leave this alone, something big might happen.

Even if I quieted the complaints,

how long do you think it will take?

Father...

Right now, you and I

can't do anything for Kang Chi.

The only solution, is that Kang Chi earns their hearts himself.

Aren't you going to tell us?

These past two nights, where have you been secretly leaving the quarters to?

Why do I have to answer that?

Didn't you hear?

It has been found that three people died in the forest.

And so?

Since their deaths were unnatural, it couldn't have been done by a human.

So, what do you think about it?

Are you saying I did that?

That's not exactly what we are saying.

No, that is what you are saying. That's why you've come in this large crowd to confront me.

We are nothing but curious.

Tell us.

I don't want to.

In front of people that are already suspicious of me,

what use would it be to explain myself?

It's just going to be petty excuse, and even if I were to make a petty excuse,

you aren't even going to believe me.

If you're not going to say anything, then the suspicion would just grow.

It doesn't matter, this kind of shitty situation isn't even new to me.

A whole bunch of people swarming together to make one person look stupid,

is something I experienced numerous times being called an abandoned child since my childhood.

That's why, suspecting me,

you can do it all you want.

What did I tell you? Talking won't work, Elder Brother.

A being that is not even a human trying to act human in itself is disgusting!

Every time I see a human like you, I am pissed off and disgusted just the same!

Won't you immediately take your hands off him?

What noise is all this?

Who ever said that you could treat each other like that?

Did Master Dam teach you that, or maybe did I teach you that?

But Teacher...

Immediately lower those swords!

Kang Chi, you too, stop it.

As the eldest disciple,

you should have prevented such a situation from taking place,

by keeping your fellows in peace. Why have you let this happen?

Elder disciple didn't do anything wrong. It's was our will to do this.

Honestly,

it's wrong from the start, that a being that isn't even human can be allowed to stay with us.

Just for Choi Kang Chi, all of us had to be uncomfortable,

and isn't that unfair?

That's right! That's right!

Then bring me evidence.

Evidence that Kang Chi

has harmed any of you here.

Moreover, evidence that Kang Chi

was responsible for the corpses in the forest.

If one of you bring solid evidence that Kang Chi committed a crime, then

at that time, this punk Kang Chi

I will personally kick him out then.

Do you mean that? What you just said, is it a promise?

But if all of you only misunderstood and falsely accused him,

all of you here

will kneel before Kang Chi and apologize. What do you think?

In addition,

a bet is more fun if there's something at stake, isn't that so?

How about that?

If you make that kind of bet as you wish, what should I do?

Why, do you have any guilty conscience or something?

I don't have anything like that.

Then what's your worry?

It's going to be bothersome.

Now all the fellows will have double lit candles in their eyes, trying to watch me.

If that's bothersome, then for two nights,

where did you go? Tell me then.

I'll be leaving.

Do you want to stay here with Yeo Wool for a long time?

Then first, you need to learn to get along.

Why don't you just reveal the truth?

Ah, you scared me.

You didn't tell Yeo Wool by any chance, right?

You said to keep it a secret.

That's right. It's a secret.

So until I tell you to do so, don't tell anyone. You understand?

Then, see you later.

What is it?

What are you referring to?

What secret are you talking about with Kang Chi?

I don't have a secret.

See here, your gaze is wavering.

Report to me while I say so nicely, what's the secret?

Oh, you came Head Gisaeng Cheon Soo Ryeon. It must be hard to come all the way here.

You did well coming all the way here, Head Gisaeng Cheon Soo Ryeon.

That orchid embroidery looks as if it's alive and fresh.

Why have you called me here?

Because of the lantern festival in a few days, I want to discuss something.

I happen to have a very important guest coming.

At the Lamp Festival, I want to provide a rather larger welcome to them.

I heard a merchant arrived from overseas not long ago.

By chance are you referring to those people?

I feel this every time, but

you find things out very quickly.

Choonhwagwan, after all, has many guests from all over.

Words fly back and forth naturally between people,

so I hear many things.

During that festival,

I want to see you play the drums.

It has been

10 years since I have not played.

The head of the merchant has specifically requested

to see your 5 drum dance.

That Japanese guest has?

Yes.

The late owner, Mr. Miyamoto, used to

praise Chun Soo Ryeon's 5 drum dance.

Therefore, she has asked

if she could possibly watch that dance.

Isn't it just mere drum dance after all?

With such trivial matter, I hope you don't make me look bad, Head Gisaeng Chun.

To me, it's a really important guest.

Be careful.

Wh-wh-who's there?

Be quiet.

Who are you?

Hurry up and come out!

I think it disappeared.

Exactly, why are you following me?

Be- Because you keep acting suspiciously every night...

There's no reason to suspect him.

Choi Kang Chi felt a strange presence in the forest

so he and Gon were keeping watch last night.

Ahh, you cheap mouth kid.

Why don't you tell the whole village?

It's not that I have a cheap mouth.

It's that I'm just talented in finding out things.

But why are you keeping this a secret?

You're just making a misunderstanding for the others.

In this situation where its identity has not even be revealed,

I didn't want to create any more restlessness.

They are already so scared out of their wits with my presence alone,

imagine if I were to say an unidentified creature was strolling around the forest.

People will feel unrest at the academy.

Now do you kind of understand, disciple Kim?

Therefore, until we discover what's roaming around in the forest,

I trust you can keep this a secret from the others.

You can do that much, right?

I understand.

Who came in?

Who are you?

It's me, So Jung.

Wol Ryung...is it you?

Yes, it's me.

Then, I'll eat well!

What?

What's he doing? Is he going to start a fight?

When you look at them, they seem like thousands or tens of thousands.

But if you put them in a bowl, it's just one thing.

Lamp Festival?

Umm..

So, I was thinking of going down to the village in the evening, and hanging a Wish Lamp.

Aren't you going with me?

Is that so?

Okay, then.

See you at six at the Lamp Path?

Wait!

Aren't we going together?

Huh?

Oh, you see.

I have something to do in the village, so I'll be there first.

Oh, is that so?

Then I'll see you later.

What number was I on again?

Ahh, start all over.

One.

Two.

Kang Chi Hyung

AH! Who is it?!

You have a guest.

Hey.

Did you hear?

What?

Cheong Jo was chosen as the flower gisaeng for the Lamp Festival.

She is being registered as an official gisaeng at the Head Gisaeng's room right now.

Omo! Then what about Wol Seon unnie?

My name originally had the meaning of

Bright Cheong, Dawn Jo: Cheong Jo

Now,

my name as a gisaeng is

Blue Cheong,

Bird Jo

Cheong Jo.

From now on, you

have become a state gisaeng officially.

Miss said to not tell you anything.

But I think

Kang Chi has to know.

So I ran over here.

At today's Lamp Festival,

she will come to 100 Year Inn as a Flower Gisaeng.

What should I do?

I think you should see her, if even just once.

Move aside!

Move!

It's the Flower Gisaeng's parade!

Aigoo.

Isn't that...

It's the Flower Gisaeng's Parade!

Aigoo. It's really Miss Cheong Jo.

What to do!

What to do! Our lady has become the flower gisaeng.

Oh no.. Our Miss..

One Hundred Year Inni

Don't let your feelings be exposed.

Get rid of all your emotions on your face,

except for a smile.

Cheong Jo!

Cheong Jo!

What do you need with me?

If you have some business with me, come to Choonhwagwan.

Then...

Here's some sweet toffee. Sweet toffee.

♫Can you hear the sad words I tell myself?♫

♫ You, the words are blaming you.

♫ When called again your name becomes pain.

♫You, you, you..♫

I was thinking of going down to town to hang a lamp.

Want to go together?

Then I will see you in front of the restaurant by the lamp path at 6pm.

♫Don't forget me. Me.. Me..♫

♫Please remember me. Me.. Me..♫

♫Farewell is done once. Why is the longing so much?♫

♫Even for a moment, I did not forget.♫

♫I am not suggesting that we relive my past love

♫ if you can just remember my love.

♫ I love you.

Aigoo!

I'm sorry.

What is this? Did he forget the time?

It's Kang Chi.

I'm sorry.

Kang Chi.

♫ Tears are falling down; I'm gazing at the sky again.

♫ Even as I gaze my memory flows.

♫ A day without you is so painful.

♫ A yearning that I cannot control.

♫ Love is crying, blown by wind.

You're late.

♫From this far away place, I look at you.♫

♫ You have asked me not to forget you.

How can we block flowing emotions?

Also, how can we block the wind that's blowing?

♫My tears, sad memories♫

♫ A love that I long for.

♫ Always under the same sky, I imagine.

♫ Yes, I live in such pain.

Who is he? That child... who is he?

Who is he?

She seems somehow familiar to me.

I've almost mistook you as a Joseon person.

That you will find the Gu Family book quickly so you can become human.

That is my wish.

She still is the most precious person to you, isn't she? That will never change...

I have made my decision. I will go to 100 Year Inn.

Who is that person?

Ask me why I've returned. To destroy everything!
