EPISODE 7

How nice to see you

while the sun is out.

What brings you here?

Is your offer still valid?

What is?

What you asked me to do with you.

I've made up my mind.

Let's do it. Love.

With me.

Let's do it together.

Sure.

I hope it was a prudent decision, considering the time you took to think.

So what's next?

Introducing ourselves.

I'm Ae-sin of the Go family.

I already know your name.

I'll even be able to read it soon.

It's Choi Yu-jin.

Yu-jin!

Now, go. Go as far as you can.

Was that your family name when you were in Joseon?

It was the same in America.

The Americans

just pronounce it differently.

I see.

I've been studying, but there's still a long way to go.

So what do we do next?

We shake hands.

-Shake hands? -It's an American greeting.

Shaking hands implies that one is not holding a weapon in them.

I like its meaning.

This "love" isn't as hard as I thought.

The first step is the hardest, indeed.

When do we let go though?

When you wish to wield a weapon.

At least for now, I do not wish to.

Well, I shouldn't keep my company waiting.

Don't study English too hard.

Stay put for a minute.

I'll escort Lady Ae-sin and come back.

I think our keys were swapped.

So that's why it wouldn't open.

There. Yours is now open.

Why aren't you going in?

You're in my way.

Open yours yourself.

I thought you'd catch it.

Is your reason for hatred towards me

the fact that I'm an offspring of my father and grandfather?

I just don't like you.

I see.

You just haven't been fond of me from the very start.

I'm glad to hear that.

What are you so amused and glad about all the time?

What's with the constant smile?

There are days when I do not. You just haven't seen me on those days.

Won't you tell me who it was?

Tell me who wronged you.

Was it my father...

or grandfather?

Why are you asking me that?

You should've asked your parents if that's what you were curious about.

I thought you were off to visit your parents.

Do they scare you and I don't?

Are they well?

Your parents.

Even changing the keys didn't make him come to me.

Gosh, I'm so pathetic.

Welcome. Would you like a window seat?

Don't bother with him.

He won't stay for long.

Yes, ma'am.

This hotel is bigger than I heard.

How have you been doing?

I lost my husband and became a widow.

I think it's been well over ten years since we last saw each other, Rinoie.

I was too busy to attend the funeral.

The funeral was grand,

but a young widow's tears piqued the curiosity of many.

There was a debate on whether she was crying

out of sadness or joy.

A woman is not to be sarcastic.

I saw flyers of your mother's face

at Jemulpo Harbor and the train station.

Was that your doing?

I hired men every once in three months to do the job.

Now that you've seen it,

I can say it was money well spent.

Stop wasting your energy and focus on running the hotel.

I doubt your mother will still be alive.

So which room is the quietest?

I need to stay the night.

My hotel is open to the pro-Japanese, pro-American,

pro-Russian, patriots,

and even stray dogs.

However,

it is off limits to you, Rinoie.

I'm afraid I have no reason to accommodate you

since I am a member of the Kudo family.

Please leave.

Who do you owe all of this to?

Had I not married you off to that old man,

you would've never ended up with a big hotel like this.

I'll send someone over later,

so have my room ready.

My late husband's cause of death

is still quite the mystery.

Be careful.

You never know what you will end up eating at this place.

Is it true?

What is? My husband's cause of death?

Does it scare you?

Have you wronged me in any way?

-I'll find out after a sip. -You're going to drink it?

If it's my fate to survive everything only to die by your hands,

then I should.

I'm upset.

Why is it that

both you and that heartless man are drawn to her?

You will also be to blame if I go after Ae-sin.

Why did you have to bring up her name at the end of jokes?

Don't do that again.

So how do you know Lord Lee Wan-ik?

He's my father.

You're his daughter?

We don't look alike, do we?

Please say we don't.

Not even close.

For such reason, I need a personal bodyguard.

He took too much already.

What did he take?

My mother,

my youth,

and my name.

What was the name you lost?

Lee Yang-hwa.

It's a pretty name.

But I'm afraid

my men are already his bodyguards.

What if I pay more?

Do you think he's the one who pays us for our service?

You may be wealthy,

but not as much as Japan.

I guess he'll live a long life.

I'm afraid so.

You see, I work as much as I'm paid to do.

I'm heading over to meet him now.

Don't eat anything that's tasty or good for you.

So, what happened to that crazy American bitch?

She left Hanseong.

She can't just leave.

Then is the certificate gone with her?

I said she left Hanseong.

I never said she left for America.

I looked everywhere including the baby's dirty diapers,

but I couldn't find it.

Did you fail to acquire it?

The word has been out there for some time now,

but no one has suddenly become rich,

and no one claims that they will be.

My guess is that it's long gone.

It's either rotting somewhere

or in the hands of someone who doesn't know its value.

That seems good enough, don't you think?

The emperor recently bought a battleship from Japan.

It cost 550,000 yen.

Now,

the emperor has 100,000 yen secretly stashed at the Russia-China bank.

That certificate is worth 100,000 yen.

Do you really think it'll just stay rotting somewhere?

If Japan gets a hold of that money,

it could buy them the Gyeongui Railroad

which will destroy Joseon

and transport Japanese soldiers to Russia.

If it falls into the hands of the Righteous Army though,

it'll fund them with dynamites that could destroy the railroads.

And what happens if it falls into your hands?

I can make the emperor of Joseon

lose his sleep.

Whether Japan flourishes or fails,

I ought to be the one to pull the strings.

I see that the world's biggest traitor is before me.

What's it to a lowly butcher like you?

Just find the damn thing.

That's a poor choice of words to say to a self-critical man like me.

I wonder what'll happen if I get a hold of that certificate.

Will that make you lose your sleep too?

What are you insinuating?

You should know that lowlifes like me

won't hesitate to do reckless things when we don't get our way.

What did you just say?

I'm telling you that our deal is off in the nicest way possible.

Good day.

-Bring me another bottle. -Yes, sir.

What a lousy couple of days it has been.

You filthy bastard.

I'll make you regret this.

You idiots!

Joseon people are yakking day and night

about how the soldiers of Great Japan were humiliated by American soldiers.

Do you know how embarrassing that is?

Who was it?

Tell me.

Who made this mess without seeking approval first?

Sergeant Tsuda gave the order to advance.

It happened so unexpectedly

that I couldn't stop him.

I'm sorry, sir.

Is that so?

Are you the one to blame?

There is no excuse for what I had done.

I, a soldier of Great Japan,

have humiliated the emperor.

I shall atone for my sin with death.

Those with a big mouth

are worthless anyway.

I'd rather keep a mad man than a tattletale.

Do something like this again though,

and you'll meet the same fate.

Get rid of him.

Yes, sir!

We got our paychecks yesterday.

He should know better than to keep it on him.

Right?

Yes, sir.

Clean the place up.

Yes, sir.

Hey, Gwan-su.

Get this.

Do you know what Hayashi did?

Do you remember when we barged into the legation?

He beheaded the soldier from that day with--

Who are you?

That's what I want to ask you.

What are you doing there?

I'm terribly sorry about that. Please forget everything I said.

Gosh.

-I thought he was you. -How come?

How does he look like me?

You have the same facial features.

Anyway,

you should tell that Joseon-American man

to be careful.

The Japanese ministers and soldiers... They're all crazy.

The madness in their eyes...

Don't you worry.

He's not a pushover to anyone.

He doesn't even flinch when there's a sword at my neck.

What did he say again?

When it comes to revenge, he needs to do it himself or something.

You may bring them dead.

A little higher.

CLOSED

I said higher, not to the right!

Enough with this. We should just run!

What if he comes to seek revenge?

Excuse me.

I need your attention. Let's go inside.

Lock the door behind you.

Lock the door?

Today must be the day we die.

I told you so.

Even a runaway slave can come back.

Mother, I'm coming soon.

Choi Yu-jin.

FRENCH BAKERY

Why are we stopping here? What for?

Please give me some money.

Do you want to buy sweets?

No, I don't.

Lady Ae-sun had bingsu or whatever it's called

and put it on a tab under your name again.

Gosh, what is this thing called bingsu?

Why did she get herself in debt to eat it?

Put the palanquin down.

BINGSU

Here you go. Enjoy.

Oh, my. This looks amazing.

This looks like flowers in full bloom in the middle of winter.

Flowers?

It starts with F.

Yes, right. This is pretty.

Stop chatting away. Please have some.

"Dance" starts with D.

This is so good that it makes me want to dance.

Considering how good this is, Lady Ae-sun's debt is too little.

She must've tried hard to hold herself back.

I can't go to the school today.

Please go without me.

Do you have money?

No. But you do, my lady.

Let's have just one more bowl.

How could you?

There are two of us here. We should each get one more.

Two more bowls, please!

All right, my lady. Then let's go over what we learned in the last class.

I memorized everything.

A as in "apple."

B as in "boy."

C as in "cook."

D as in "dance."

E as in "Eugene."

-F is-- -Pardon me?

What?

E as in what?

E as in...

F as in "Flower."

Perfect. Excellent job, my lady.

Then today,

let's study the letters, G, H, I, J, K, and L.

L is everyone's favorite out of these letters.

Why is that?

Because the letter, L,

stands for love.

-"Love"? -Yes.

I heard it's more difficult than shooting guns,

and it requires more passion. You mean that "love," right?

Yes, my lady.

Well, that's not entirely an inaccurate definition.

Anyway, I envy you, my lady.

You and your fiancé

can do this thing called love.

Oh, but the thing is...

I promised someone else that I'd do it with him.

-Pardon me? -I found the perfect man for me.

We started it only a few days ago.

I just got started and it's not that hard.

Lady Ae-sin, you cannot do that.

"Love" refers to romantic affection.

A man and a woman deeply caring for each other.

It's that feeling.

What?

-What? -My gosh.

Let's do it. Love.

Sure.

This "love" isn't as hard as I thought.

Because if I were to do anything,

it will be for the doom of Joseon.

He must want to

destroy me.

He approached me because he...

Why that little...

I need you to go to the legation secretly.

And this must stay between you and me.

Do you understand?

Yes, my lady.

My goodness, this is scary.

Don't move! Who are you?!

We caught someone suspicious trying to climb the wall.

I'll take care of it.

You guys get back to work.

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.

Why did you try to climb the wall?

It may look like I was caught and dragged here,

but all of that was part of my plan.

It was very natural.

-Should I take a seat here? -No, stand there.

So why are you here?

Hold on.

Lady Ae-sin asked me to deliver this to you.

She seemed incredibly downcast as she was handing it to me.

I'm a fearless man.

Lord Go and Lady Ae-sin

are the only ones I fear.

What does that mean?

If this somehow leaks and becomes the subject of gossip,

I will cut your head off

and give it a little tour of the town.

Lady Ae-sin must feel very safe.

She doesn't say it, but I'm certain that she does.

Anyway, I should get going now.

Summon those soldiers for me.

I must leave as naturally as how I came in.

Why are you holding the letter upside down, sir?

We now share another secret, don't we?

I know how to read this. I just wasn't reading it.

Reading this requires a lot of courage,

and there is a big difference between the two.

Like the difference between holding it upside down and holding it properly?

Hey.

What kind of an attitude is that when an adult is talking?

Kid, you're very...

I'm your boss. Do you know what "boss" means?

B, o, s...

How should I end this conversation?

I'll leave, sir.

If you'd like to read--

-Get out. -Yes, sir.

Gosh, I told you to be gentle.

-Got it? Don't peel everything off. -Okay.

It's cold, my lady. Why are you sitting there like that?

You should go inside. You're just being a nuisance.

Yes.

I've been stuck in my room.

It's nice to be outside.

Goodness, what is the matter with her these days?

My lady!

There's a letter for you.

A letter?

How dare he.

Is the man at the American legation summoning me again?

-I'll teach him a lesson-- -It's not from the legation, my lady.

-What? -Like the last time,

a maid from the hotel is here with a letter and a floral palanquin.

Refuse politely.

Yes, my lady.

Why refuse them, my lady?

Young Master Hui-seong must have sent them.

-You should go and... -How dare he do this to me!

Gosh, you startled me.

I shouldn't have said anything.

An empty seat and an empty glass.

I can at least fill up your glass for you.

She's refusing flowers, a floral palanquin,

and even this handsome face.

I have no idea what to do.

I have never been rejected by a woman before.

Why give a lady flowers?

Is it to make her jealous or to give her a blessing?

What moves a lady's heart isn't flowers that are bound to wilt.

You must show her your sincerity.

The more profound it is, the better.

What should I do, then?

I haven't been sincere...

for that long because I only met her recently.

What if I tell her that she has been in my heart since before I left Joseon?

-Won't this face make it believable? -No.

-Thank you for your advice. -No problem.

You say no a lot.

What are you worried about though?

You two are engaged.

After a simple wedding custom,

Lady Ae-sin will become your woman.

No one else will be able to have her.

Why take a detour when there is such an easy way?

I know, right?

I'm also worried that I might end up...

taking the easy way

with ill intentions.

Ms. Kudo told me

that I must choose to bite instead of crying.

I need money to buy medicine, sir.

My mother is ill.

Hence, I'll bite if I must in order to survive.

I'm sure your boss can lend you enough money to buy medicine.

Yes, she is a kind lady.

But I'll have to pay her back if I borrow money from her,

whereas with you, I'll be exchanging what I have with your money,

which means I won't get myself into debt.

Let's hear it, then.

Will it just give you what you need

or be valuable enough to save your mother's life too?

You asked me to let you know if I ever see any piece of paper.

I saw something while cleaning that American man's room.

English words were written on the envelope.

What was written inside of it?

I was afraid that I might get caught, so I didn't look inside the envelope.

Now, pay me for this information.

I must return quickly as I stepped out to run an errand.

It better be what I'm looking for.

I do not want to make a woman shed tears.

Today is the day.

For what?

The day we search your room.

Search the room.

Yes, sir.

You must have hidden it in a safe place, sir.

You're not even flustered.

Are you just searching my room? Or will you go through Room 303 too?

Is this work-related or personally motivated?

I handle both work and personal matters with my sword,

so there isn't much of a difference, sir.

Your underlings are careless.

They're not well-educated.

This is the only envelope with English words.

That's a personal letter. I couldn't...

I haven't even read it yet.

Then I should read it...

THERE HAS BEEN A CHANGE OF PLANS

...aloud for you.

"There has been a change of plans

for what we agreed to do together.

It'd be great if we could figure out

where we each stand as soon as possible.

Do not try to avoid me.

Please write me back as soon as...

you read this letter."

Did you really read it?

I guess you made a new friend in the past few days I haven't seen you.

My feelings are hurt.

You planned something with this person, but there has been a change of plans.

Such changes usually lead to mishaps,

and avoiding something often gets you in a bloody mess.

That's what the letter was about.

If I ever see you with a piece of paper in your hand,

I will kill you regardless of what it's about.

And it doesn't look like I'm the only one who despises you,

so you should be careful.

I don't want to see you getting brutally bashed before my turn comes.

I'm concerned, sir.

-Let's go. -Yes, sir.

Yes, sir.

Eugene, what's going on?

What happened here?

Those bastards do this?

-Kyle... -Yeah?

What is it?

Are you hurt?

He can read Korean.

What are you talking about?

You injured your head?

That guy can read Korean.

Are you sure it was Room 304?

Yes, I heard sounds of things breaking. It got pretty intense.

I heard there was a commotion.

Are you okay, sir?

I guess people get hurt when Musin Society causes a ruckus.

I'd be relieved with minor injuries. Usually, someone ends up dead.

And you didn't even check on me?

Because I would side with you?

I'll send my staff to your room to clean it.

Send at least three.

And this is broken.

Is there anyone who can fix this?

Orgel is rare here in Joseon, so I'm not too sure.

But there is a skilled blacksmith who used to work at the weapon foundry.

This is a music box.

Right, it's called orgel in Japan.

Shall I take it to him?

Just tell me where his forge is.

Did you say this thing can play music?

Can you fix it?

I've never seen this before,

but most machines work the same way.

I'll have to take this apart and examine the parts inside though.

Will that be okay?

That's fine as long as you can fix it.

It'll take three to four days, so leave this with me.

You'll hear from me when the repair is done.

Are you really confident that you can fix it?

When I reassemble things for those whom I despise,

I often intentionally leave a part or two out.

But don't you worry.

I want to hear the music this thing can play.

She seemed incredibly downcast as she was handing it to me.

Do you remember the alleyway where we first met?

Nod your head if you do.

There's an apothecary near that alleyway.

Meet me there.

I'll give you 30 minutes.

BASIC KOREAN CONVERSATION

Why didn't you write back?

I was told that you received my letter.

-I haven't read it yet. -I saw you reading it.

Even earlier, you were holding it.

Were you trying to avoid me?

No, I wasn't.

I just couldn't read it.

Do not tell such a lie.

What a terrible excuse.

I guess you've figured out what "love" means.

What are you talking about?

I obviously knew the meaning from the get-go.

Then why did you want to see me?

I wanted to give you a warning.

Since I might end up killing you.

So I must die because of "love"?

I told you it's not that.

I just want you to die, that's all.

Why do you hate me so much?

You're the one who suggested it first.

How dare you.

-Do you even know how to use it? -No, I don't.

But I learn everything quickly.

That must be why it took you no time to learn up to the letter, L.

How do you know how to load it?

-I just gave it a go. -Let's talk it out.

Don't give anything else a go.

That's up to you.

Answer my question truthfully.

You said you'd do nothing in Joseon.

Yet, you suggested we do "love."

Was that...

for the doom of Joseon like you said?

Not exactly all of Joseon.

I wanted to destroy someone.

But now that I think about it,

I ended up destroying myself.

Why would you

destroy yourself?

I don't know.

Maybe it was the beginning of revenge

or the end of jealousy.

What do you mean by the beginning of revenge?

Is it against me?

Do you understand what I meant by the end of jealousy?

I considered it a confession of love. The second one.

Am I wrong?

Was it the third?

When did you start counting?

Since you said, "Protecting you."

Was there anything before?

I tried to count.

You said you know nothing.

You said all you knew how to do is paint.

I need some air.

Stay right there.

Will this do?

This is so good.

Is that so?

It's delicious. Everything's delicious.

Get lost.

Leave.

The prettiest girl in Japan was in Hwawollu.

Where are you from?

I don't know.

I'm an orphan.

I wandered all about Tokyo,

then came here when I heard I could become rich in Joseon.

I'm from the countryside.

So I plan to make a fortune in Joseon

and buy a house in Tokyo.

This is an expensive bar.

If you keep spending like this,

you'll never buy a house.

I recently came across a windfall.

Now I just need to gain fame.

It will be spring soon.

Good fortune will come to you as well.

Spring?

How many beans will you eat this year?

I like them a lot.

I'll eat until I'm full.

About 100?

You don't look that old.

How old are you?

I'm 25.

Are you?

And you'll eat 100 beans?

You're a Joseon girl.

In the spring in Japan, after Mamemaki,

we eat as many beans as our age.

Even if you're an orphan, you'd have known that.

Unless you were a Joseon bitch.

It looks like killing you will make me famous.

Senior officials come here daily and exchange information.

What did a Joseon bitch take

while pretending to be Japanese?

If you want to kill me, just do it!

Stop pretending to be Japanese.

If you scream in your language, someone might help you.

What's going on?

I don't know your story but in Joseon...

Move on!

When a geisha in red opens the window,

that's the signal.

What's with this one?

Lend me this.

Don't do it.

You'll just risk your own life if you go unprepared.

Every moment until now was preparation.

Saving one woman won't save Joseon.

I must save her.

Because one day,

she could become like me.

Wait here.

Don't worry.

There are only five bullets in that gun.

I just need two.

Who was that? Show yourself!

Where are you?

You savage Joseon fools! I'll kill you all!

You crazy fool!

It's not you. You're not the one who shot me.

You reek of alcohol.

Listen carefully.

It doesn't matter who shot you.

What matters is whom you shot.

You're done for now.

Because just now,

you shot an American.

Now that I think about it,

I guess I destroyed myself.

What are you doing? Open this door.

Open this door!

Let me out!

Lady Ae-sin helped you?

She was at the scene?

Yes.

I think it was because it was close to the apothecary she used as a base.

It was definitely her marksmanship.

What I found strange was the man she was with.

The American acting consul who looks like a Joseon man.

It was him.

I don't know if she knew when she helped,

but please thank Lady Ae-sin for me.

I might not get to see her until I die.

You have served us well.

I will pass on your message.

Okay.

It's too dangerous for you to move about in Hanseong now.

Go to Shanghai.

I'll contact you

as soon as we have your travel documents and boat.

Until then, take good care of her.

Yes, sir.

Spend this in Shanghai.

Don't scrimp. Spend as much as you want.

It's from me.

Okay.

Thank you, everyone.

Please stay safe, comrades.

Mister.

Mom.

The stones will be too heavy for Dad.

You poor thing.

What should I do with you now?

Honey...

So-a.

Yes?

We will meet again.

So remember that this isn't farewell.

We might be much stronger

than we ever think.

Yes, captain.

The man Lady Ae-sin was with.

I think he was at the hut.

I don't like how they keep crossing paths.

He might have a motive.

He was at the kiln site too.

If he is who I think he is...

My father was beaten to death

and my mother threw herself into the well.

I have nowhere to go in this whole country.

He will have a grudge against the whole country.

We might have to go to the legation.

He owes me money for drinks as well.

I hope he gets out safely. I wonder what His Majesty will do.

I don't trust the king yet.

Both countries' legation got involved. I'm sure he'll get out safely.

We're stuck between the Japanese and Americans.

The innocent Joseon people will take the blame.

Whether you live or die

is up to the foreigners.

Joseon has abandoned you.

The king abandoned his own people.

I abandoned him long ago.

If you abandoned the king,

why do you want to save Joseon?

To become a rebel.

I need there to be a country to turn against.

Yes, that's right.

Your Majesty. The Joseon mob

colluded with an American to launch an attack

and harmed Japan's authority--

Your highness,

the Japanese soldier who claims to be injured

is not completely guiltless.

On the contrary,

he happens to be the only assailant in the shooting incident.

Your Majesty.

The Japanese soldier who claims he was injured

is not at all guilt-free.

He's actually the only assailant in the incident.

As you see, our opinions are directly opposed.

I suggest we open a joint investigation

to reveal the truth--

It's a waste of time.

There are numerous witnesses and there is no question

as who the victim and the offender are

in this incident, Your Highness.

Why do you keep interrupting me?

I'm sorry if you felt offended.

We're only trying to help.

I wouldn't want to look back to this moment

of shame.

What did you say?

Minister Hayashi.

Yes, Your Majesty.

A drunk Japanese soldier

killed two innocent Joseon people.

Do you believe

two Joseon lives mean less than one Japanese soldier's injury?

It is true that he had been drinking,

but he was on leave.

It's true that he was drunk,

but he was on leave.

Do Japanese soldiers on leave carry weapons?

Do you carry weapons when on leave?

Your Majesty.

See this for what this is.

Your Majesty.

See this for what this is.

If you're siding with America because

they're a rising power--

Listen carefully, Minister Hayashi.

The statements of all who witnessed the attack

indicate the Japanese soldier as the attacker.

You're in our country

and your man gunned down two innocent people,

and instead of apologizing,

you complain the wound on your hand hurts more.

Do you still think

I side with the Americans?

Minister Lee of Foreign Affairs, inform the Police Bureau.

Yes, Your Majesty.

The Japanese soldier who killed two innocent Joseon people...

will be judged by our laws.

-Your Majesty. -Release the American today

and execute the Japanese for murder.

Japan will carry out the execution

and our Police Bureau will observe.

That is...

my last act of mercy.

Yes, Your Majesty.

I thank you, Your Majesty.

Eugene!

-How bad is it? -It's alright.

Let's get you to the hospital.

I'm gonna kill that bastard that shot you.

I'll be fine.

Why don't you go to the hotel?

There is something I need to check at the legation.

What's that?

Does that have to do with the incident report?

Don't worry about that.

You're saying,

I don't need to write one?

What I mean't was you take your time with that.

By the way,

Have you ever seen the King of Joseon?

He had a pretty fancy get up when I saw him.

I like his gold coat.

There's a dragon.

Is that something I can get my hands on somewhere?

Give it a shot and see what happens.

Bet you are the one locked up next time.

Hah! Oops.

My lady.

Is something the matter?

Boss.

I know that handwriting.

Pardon?

Hand over that piece of paper.

BRUSHES

INK STICK

"There has been a change of plans

for what we agreed to do together.

It'd be great if we could figure out where we each stand as soon as possible.

Do not try to avoid me.

Please write me back as soon as you read

this

letter."

My lord!

My lord!

Just like you ordered, I found the servant from 30 years ago

and sent him to the American--

My goodness.

What's the occasion, young master?

Why wouldn't you come home?

I'm afraid I can't do that in the current circumstances.

I'm sorry to bother you.

Not at all, young master.

Why did you want to see me?

A few days ago,

when I was at my house,

you said you found somebody.

Who was it that you found?

Lord Kim ordered me to find

the servant from 30 years ago who used to serve the family

back in Ganghwa Island, so I did.

Why look for a slave from 30 years ago?

I’m not sure,

but an American soldier barged in recently

and caused a ruckus.

It was intense. He had a gun and everything.

I was given the order after that man came by.

An American soldier?

Did that American soldier look like a Joseon man?

Yes, young master. He looked like one of us.

What I want to know is...

Why was the American solider looking for a slave,

not a noble?

I'm not sure, young master.

I was asking myself.

Oh, I see.

PAWN CERTIFICATE

I want you to pawn this.

What did you say?

It probably means that he wants us dead.

Get a grip.

I'm not sure if this will worth anything.

Don't check what's inside.

Please take it in.

The boy inside that crate is shivering with fear again.

RUSSIA-CHINA BANK IN SHANGHAI

Just a moment.

Chun-sik.

Bring me a certificate.

Okay.

The petals turn yellow from white.

This helps blood circulation, ma'am.

It seems you have an injury. What happened?

It happens often to soldiers.

The American soldier who got in a gunfight with a Japanese solder...

I'd like to rest a bit.

You must be tired

from showing up here and there.

Will I see it today?

Your face without a smile.

How do you like it? Is it more pleasant to look at?

I'm not sure about that.

But you do look like a young master.

Carry on, sir.

I'm only here to get some air.

We ran into each other. You've probably figured that out already.

I must've jinxed it.

Changes usually lead to mishaps,

and avoiding something often gets you in a bloody mess.

You got shot.

-I appreciate your concern. -I should wish for your death next.

I wished you well,

but I'm afraid the exact opposite happened.

Am I on everyone's agenda today?

You see, I feel like you cut in line...

while I was

never even given a chance.

-What do you mean? -Be an American soldier and nothing more.

Sir.

What you have in your possession no longer matters.

You already have

something important.

Just what are you talking about?

I think I know what he means.

The reason why all of you are angry.

I get it now.

Is the person by your side

the same person who is by my side?

Although not present,

that person was with us all along.

That person.

Is that person...

my fiancée?

It better not be.

I'd hate to start having ill intentions.

At least not yet.

MR SUNSHINE

So I saved her. Because we're comrades.

Did that American man help you that day because you are his comrade?

The emperor of Korea.

And have him stand in the forefront.

Did anything else happen the year I was born?

You were there that day too. Your mother was pregnant with you.

Are you the leader?

If that is the case, I cannot let you live.

By the way, does the suit fit you well?

What suit?

I've been told to just make sure a girl get on that boat.

Where are you supposed to meet them, sir?

So even if Ae-sin can be put to good use,

don't let it be too often. Sometimes, keep her in the dark.

I want to be the one who gets her to safety.

I told you not to come and you did.

On top of that, you already know.
