Search every corner. They must be found and killed!

Sister-in-law!

Brother-in-law!

Sister-in-law, are you hurt anywhere?

How did you come here, Brother-in-law?

Stop.

So you're the very culprit responsible for this situation.

Brother-in-law!

If you found the one you were looking for, don't draw blood meaninglessly and just go.

From what I can see, rescuing this woman is more important than cutting off my head.

Silence, you knave! At the very least, you're someone I can...

Yes, this knave... when I was in Aeweol...

Aeweol?

You treacherous ruffian.

I thought we were on friendly terms. I guess it's an ill-fated relationship.

Friend?! You're nothing but an insect!

There they are!

Brother-in-law!

Brother-in-law, before anyone else gets here...

Let's go!

Found him! Catch him!

This way.

Stop. This way, this way. Hurry!

Damn it!

Please step back.

Brother-in-law...

Sister-in-law!

You must get away first. Now!

- Let's go. - How can I run away by myself?

Then would you rather stay and put him in harm's way too?

You must run away first before he can also run away or fight, right?!

This man is right. Please get away. Hurry!

I'm fine. So leave me here and get yourself to safety.

That man isn't going to die. He's a nobleman, isn't he?

He's the son of their household, do you think they'll kill him? They can't!

So let's go already!

Ah, damn it all. Hey, you bastards!

Do you know who's the man you're trying to kill?

He's the son of your master.

Think hard. If you kill his son, do you think your master would praise you for it?!

You see that? Those bastards can't touch a hair on his head.

So if you understand now, let's go already!

Please go first. I'll follow close behind!

Hurry! Hurry!

Don't tell me. Are you the son of His Excellency the left state councillor?

- That's correct. - We came here following his orders.

I thought I was a member of his family,

but from the current situation I see it's going to be different from now on.

Only come forward if you want to see blood.

Stop!

You should stop too, Young Master.

What will you do if His Excellency found out?

I'll ignore what happened up to here. So please step aside.

If you'll turn a blind eye, I'll do what I can to change Father's mind.

Unfortunately I cannot do that. Please step aside.

You know well that I don't have a choice either.

If you must go...

cut me down first.

You and Cha Dol can go your way now.

What are you planning to do? Surely you aren't going back, are you?

Do you have a death wish?

Didn't you see how furious your in-laws were to kill you?

It looks like you're worried about your brother-in-law,

but is it time for you to worry about others when you need to worry about yourself first?

You have to get out alive first!

I think my father is right for now.

First, let's go to the palace as planned.

No matter how powerful your father-in-law is,

could he be more powerful than your father, the king?

Once they confirm you're alive, surely everything else will fall into place.

Let's go first to the Danbong gate of the palace.

Please spare my sister-in-law. I'll convince her to live where no one else can find her.

Just spare her. Your son desperately begs you like this, Father!

That's impossible.

If people later find out that she's alive,

how will you handle the aftermath then?

I will bear the responsibility.

What can you do?

We cannot endanger our family just for your sister-in-law's sake.

Only the dead will keep their lips sealed.

You have made a mistake.

What did you say?

If you will kill my sister-in-law to seal her lips,

how could you not think of the lips of the people you deployed to kill her?

My men's lips are tight. They will guard the secret with their lives.

What is the number of people who witnessed what happened yesterday?

- It's a little over twenty. - When this matter is resolved, kill them all.

- Yes. - Are you satisfied now?

Lock him up in the storeroom.

Father! Lies beget even bigger lies.

Even if you kill all those men, who will seal the lips of those who killed them?

What are you doing? Take him away!

Will you kill Tae Chul, first Hyung-nim, and myself as well?!

If we go according to what you say, isn't this the only way to guard that secret?!

Silence! How dare you utter such nonsense in front of Father?!

Did I say anything wrong?

If someone's lips were to slip, and his Majesty the king finds out about this,

don't you know that our family is truly doomed anyway?

Did I not tell you to silence yourself?!

It is still not too late.

Please admit the truth to his majesty and beg for his forgiveness, Father.

This fool won't give up!

Father, Father!

They say a Mandarin orange can change in the right circumstance into an orange tree.

But I suppose an orange tree, even if planted elsewhere, will always produce oranges.

Why were you caught?

Looking at how clean your face is, I guess you're a fancy nobleman.

Were you caught trying to seduce the lady of this home?

Ignore me if I'm wrong. Look...

Look, perhaps this is fate.

Let's introduce ourselves. I'm from Supogyo. The name is Chu— I-I mean,

The name is Dog Crap.

The silent type, huh?

It looks like you don't know much about me.

If anyone in Cheonggaecheon hears the name "Dog Crap",

even the kids who were crying will stop and sweep up the courtyard.

It stops them right in their tracks!

You're excessively quiet. Fine!

I won't bother you anymore, so just hear my one request.

Come over here and untie this rope for me.

This rope, just... can't you hear me?!

- You made the right choice. Please untie this rope for me. - Please just shut your mouth!

Orabeoni. Orabeoni! ("Older brother", said by a girl - ancient version of "oppa")

Didn't I tell you to go away?

I'm going to briefly come in.

Please go back, Aunt.

I have something to tell my brother. Move aside.

Do you still not know anything about Father?

It doesn't matter what you say to him.

If you must see him, wait until his wrath has cooled down. Then you can return.

My lady. What happened? Did you meet his excellency?

It's Court Lady Jo. She's unmistakeably the one who told Dae Yeop about this.

We don't know what else she may scheme, so have Tae Chul keep a close watch on her.

Hurry back to the palace and make sure to secure the entrances.

Since I've already talked to the Minister of Defense, his staff will cooperate with you.

But since it's the palace gates, there might be eyes watching.

I'll take care of the aftermath.

If you find my daughter-in-law, no matter where it is or who is watching,

you must kill her. Understand?

Yes.

Your Highness, are you all right?

I'm fine. So let's keep going.

Let's rest for a bit.

I told you, I'm fine.

I'm saying this because Cha Dol seems to be having a hard time.

Oh my legs! My poor legs!

Your Highness. Let's please rest for a bit.

Let me see your feet.

It's tolerable so don't worry about me—

How can I not worry about you when I already am? Please give me your feet.

It's blood!

What? Move!

Hey, just sit still for a moment!

What are you doing? Let go of my foot this instant!

- Ah, really! - That's why I told you to let go.

Give me your foot.

Your foot!

Water.

Bandage.

You're not even some young miss, how can you be this shy?

- Father! - What?

Be quiet and act moderately. Instead of useless talking, get her some shoes.

Hurry up.

I thought he said it was somewhere around here.

Orabeoni.

I heard they are looking for you now.

Did something happen?

I'll talk to you later.

Is there a store selling shoes around here?

Yes. We are on our way from there now.

Isn't this pretty?

Yes, pretty. Where is it?

- There, if you go around that alley, right— - Thanks.

Don't tell anyone you saw me. Understand?

That's five nyang.

- How much? - Five nyang.

You're a thief. Does it make sense, such a price for a pair of shoes?

Take it or leave it. These danghye* are luxury goods, (traditional Korean shoes)

embroidered with the skill and effort of my master, an artisan for the royal family.

An artisan for the royal family?

Yes. This pair was originally supposed to be worn by Princess Hwa In at her wedding.

Never mind. Just pretend you didn't hear that.

Her highness the princess? Are you sure?

- I said leave it if you don't like it. - Who doesn't like it?

- You're giving the socks for free, aren't you? - Why would I do that?

Don't you know "buy one, get one free"?

Fine.

Father.

Try them on. They will fit.

They are really pretty.

Pretty? Shoes are just shoes.

Hurry and try them on.

They look so precious, these are expensive.

Precious...it's not even worth a few cents.

That's not so. From a glance, a master artisan worked with all his skill—

Hurry and put them on!

♫ That was beautiful ♫

♫ The day that flowed with the clouds ♫

How can they fit so perfectly?

Thank you.

I know him. Because the chief gatekeeper knows me,

he will let me into the palace.

What is it now?

I think they are the ones sent to capture you.

Do you see the bamboo staves in their hands?

This weapon is usually used by the gisaeng house guards.

There is a knife hidden in the staff.

When the chief gatekeeper greets you, even if I didn't know who you are, there's no way I would fail to recognize you.

Are you just going to wait and see what those suspicious men with the knives do?

Doesn't it mean they are working hand in glove with the ones before?

I think your father-in-law is very powerful.

From the look of it, he has the chief gatekeeper working for him too.

Damn. It's a mess.

If it's like this at the Danbong Gate,

it's obvious they'll be guarding the other gates as well.

What are you going to do now?

There's one way but I don't know if it will work.

Hurry and go.

At this rate, how will you—

You! Stop that!

- That little rascal! - Kids these days!

- Don't! - Don't!

Go away! You're going to get in trouble!

Hey! Come here!

Once I get my hands on you, you little...

Don't do that!

Father.

What?

Once the princess returns to the palace,

will we never see her again?

That's right.

Anyway, she's at a completely different rank than us and lives in a different place.

Didn't I tell you?

All pretty women are wicked.

Don't be bewitched by her.

Wow...

So pretty...

Be well.

Your Highness too...

Please live a long and happy life.

I will.

You're a new face. Where do you come from?

I'm a maid from Noble Royal Consort Yun's family.

Ah, I see.

I thought you looked older.

Oh right.

I heard that ever since her daughter passed away, Noble Royal Consort Yun has been sick in bed.

She must be suffering from such heartbreak.

Next!

Your badge.

Your badge!

You shouldn't leave this behind.

My badge...

Where did my badge go?

- Have you seen my badge? - I don't know.

Where did my badge go?

Hold it!

Who's the kid?

Who's the kid?

He's a child eunuch, my lord.

So he's neither a boy nor a girl.

But why is he dressed like this?

I don't know exactly,

I heard that he was negligent in his studies, so was being punished for it.

Go.

Next!

Why are you here? What about your father?

I just thought it would be more fun here so I came without him knowing.

It's no problem, right?

Cha Dol! Cha Dol!

Cha Dol! Hey Cha Dol!

Where did that runt go?

Cha Dol. Cha Dol!

Cha Dol, that little rascal!

Just wait until I get my hands on you!

Why are you all like this?

Didn't you all come looking for me because you had something to say to me?

If you have nothing to say, please leave.

What is this?

It is the musk of the roe deer from Saga.

It's a precious item that came from China.

His majesty the king hasn't visited my quarters in a long time.

Please take care of this.

I understand.

Anyone else?

It is agarwood, which is more precious than musk. Agarwood is used to make incense and perfume.

I also have a request.

Me too.

What kind of shameless acts are you doing?

Aren't you even embarrassed to behave this way in front of lowly people?

I don't think the person who first offered the musk should be saying that.

I was merely reminded of our dear Court Lady Kim when seeing such a precious item.

It's not a bribe!

If you are going to fight, please do it outside.

Your words sound offensive to me.

Have you no sense of respect?

Ah.

Is that so?

Please forgive my lack of respect to you all, Lady Consorts.

Please take these and go.

I-I mean—

Look here, Court Lady Kim.

I think there must be a misunderstanding—

What's wrong?

It's my brother-in-law.

Brother-in-law?

What kind of position does your brother-in-law have, to be over there?

He is the chief of police, so he can go anywhere.

The chief of police? He almost caught me.

Why are you here? What happened to the laundry?

I had business to attend to.

But where were you going?

I was on my way to take the laundry to Yanghwadang Hall.

How fortunate!

I'm sorry, but could you do me a favor?

What kind... of favor?

Stop.

Pass.

Court Lady Kim!

Can you deliver this to Court Lady Han

and ask her to meet me at the Aeryeonjeong Pavilion in the Huwon Garden?

I request this of you.

The Huwon Garden was used by the royal family and is known today as The Secret Garden.

Someone is coming from there.

It's been a while since I've seen you, Princess.

You...

Have you been happy and peaceful thus far, Princess?

I guess my mother doesn't know that I'm here.

You were intelligent when you were younger. You are still wise.

I see you have partnered with my father-in-law.

The Left State Councilor did request this, but I did not partner with him.

I am always your Majesty's person.

But why... are you doing this?

The fact that you are alive...

will be troublesome for the king.

Did you say "troublesome"?

Yes. It will be troublesome.

If the fact that you are alive

is known by his majesty, have you thought about what would happen?

Since his excellency has committed the crime of creating an illusion which deceived the king,

And since he tried to kill his precious daughter,

wouldn't this be treason?

Of course the Western faction and Southern faction would revolt,

and they would also suffer.

It won't just be the left state councillor and his family

but also the northern faction.

But who is "His Excellency"?

Joseon's most powerful person.

He is renowned as the leader of the Northerners who clutches the royal family in his arms,

He's definitely not someone who will just bear it silently.

Perhaps... a true revolt will occur.

Will you be able to handle all of this, Princess?

Please die, Princess.

This is the only path through which the well-being of the king and the Jongmyo shrine can be assured.

I am saying this without an ulterior motive, only to save his majesty.

You must believe me.

Jongmyo Shrine - Confucian shrine for the dead Joseon kings and queens.

Is that you, Gae Si?

Your Majesty!

What are you doing here so late?

Who exactly are these people?

They are launderers.

I've called a new launderer to request something.

Raise your head.

He said to raise your head.

What are you doing not raising your head?

Your Majesty, why are you trying to see the face of a lowly woman?

Please take it back.

I'm going to Buyongji (Pond). Follow me.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Father...

What do you think about the Left State Councillor?

Did you say the Left State Councillor, Your Majesty?

Why are you so surprised? Did something happen without my knowledge?

No, Your Majesty.

How can I possibly hide anything from you?

Those are utterly unreasonable words.

Gae Si.

Surely, you're on my side, aren't you?

Why is there no response?

From the first time I met you at the Eastern Palace when you were Crown Prince,

I was your person.

Please believe in my loyalty, Your Majesty.

I understand.

If you say so, it must be.

Wasn't the pledge different? If you didn't want to dirty your hands,

you should have locked her up and waited for me!

Didn't I tell you that I didn't have a chance to do that?

After the late king ate the sweet glutinous rice and died,

I thought that we were on the same boat.

Do you perhaps have other motives?

If that had been the case, the palace guards would have gone instead of me.

And did you not say that you wouldn't mention that ever again?

Am I the only one who is afraid of the future trouble?

I'm sorry. I had a slip of the tongue because of my hasty heart.

It seems that you are mistaken, but I am not your subordinate.

- Do you understand? - I understand.

Stay the course, Court Lady Kim.

I will make sure to repay the debt to your mother's second husband.

But what about the court lady who has met Princess Hwa In...?

I already bid them to get rid of her.

Did she not mention where she was going?

You are very pitiful.

Would someone who is being pursued tell anyone their destination?

Seeing that you are speaking such senseless words today,

It seems that you are have a sense of urgency.

Since I have appointed a person to follow her,

you must not lose her and must get rid of her properly this time.

You know very well that there are many unseen eyes and ears inside the palace.

You must quickly handle it before his majesty finds out.

Jung Yeong.

Yes, Your Majesty.

- I'll order them to back away. - No. Follow me.

Find Hwa In.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Once you find Hwa In,

secretly keep a close eye on the Left State Councillor.

If he kills Princess Hwa In,

bring that evidence to me.

Cha Dol.

Hyeong?

What are you?

Palace Eunuch

What is this? You're a eunuch?

Hey, Cha Dol!

This rotten boy!

I did wrong.

- I could just! - Father.

- Go away. - Father...

Ah, go away!

Are you not going to ask what happened?

If things went well, you wouldn't have come out of the palace.

It was a complete failure.

For now, let's run.

- Again? - Yes, you damn boy.

Let's go home.

That's why I asked you to release this rope. This is because I wasn't able to defecate for the past few days.

Being of this age, I can't even go in my pants...

Young Master.

Young Master.

Court Lady!

These noblemen have no sense. Don't you know that if it goes thump, it's the sound of a pumpkin falling?

She came secretly. Secretly!

Young Master, what happened?

Have you seen the princess?

Yes, she's alive.

Gods of heaven and earth, thank you!

Don't worry. I will surely rescue her.

Is Ba Wu also alive?

Ba Wu? Who is he?

He's of the same party as the thief who took the princess away.

Tell me exactly where he is.

Or I will...!

Ah, spare me!

Spare me, my lord.

If you want to live, tell me where he might have gone.

He would be at the Aewolu.

I already searched there.

Then it's Gongju.

Gongju?

I remember that I heard him say that his mother and sister live in Gongju.

Let's exchange names. I am Yi Dae Yeop who lives in Jaedong.

I am Kim Dae Seok from Cheonan.

Where in Gongju?

I don't really know because he said it when I was under the influence of alcohol.

Servant. He just mentioned a servant.

Ah, just wait a minute. Wait a minute! If you just search Gongju, you would find the answer...

Why would he lie?

Please spare me!

If in fact it was a lie, you will think it is better to die.

Until we find out whether what he said was true, don't give him any water.

Yes, Your Excellency.

You rotten man.

Are you coming back after giving that to Dae Yeop?

Ah, yes...

Bring it back to him.

Yes, Your Excellency.

I understand my daughter-in-law's maternal grandmother's home is in Anseong.

You know where it is, don't you?

We are sleeping here tonight?

Yes. Even if it's uncomfortable, we will sleep here tonight.

Tomorrow we will go out of the town.

Oh my!

What a surprise...!

You, really...

The blood on his head hasn't tried yet and he's fooling around! That is, he is a newborn infant.

I heard that you and mom also met at the watermill.

- Who said that? - Uncle Chun Bae.

Argh, that old man. He's ruining this kid.

Do you want to eat?

Here.

Here.

This old man is going to pass been sprouts out of his beggar's butt hole.

Tae Chul is scary, but I'm a pushover?

No, that's not it.

Isn't someone who steals and gives worse than someone who doesn't give at all... Sir?

How about it? Will you do a deal with me?

A deal...

I don't know if there's any alcohol remaining... I'm thirsty.

Ah, it's great!

I feel I can live now.

Now, tell me.

Where do you think he hid?

If I say, will you rescue your sister-in-law who was stolen by Ba Woo?

I don't even know. And even if I knew, I can't say a word.

What kind of loyalty do you have towards someone who won't even come to save you?

Didn't you say you wanted to live? Shouldn't you save yourself first?

That's his fate.

I have my own problems so why should I be concerned about someone else's?

And also,

I think the loyalty for those nobles seems to be a bit different from

from what people like us call loyalty.

Loyalty is all the same loyalty. What are you saying is different?

You are not a fire moth.

Are you loyal to those who locked you in here while knowing you would die?

I don't expect those kind of things.

While he was swilling down alcohol, he thought of me

and threw food on the ground once as an offering to the spirits for me.

I'm good with that.

Ah, I'm so hungry.

A sigh... the ground is going to cave in.

Do you have anywhere to go outside the town?

Let's just say that your old home is like that.

Well, you must have relatives on your mother's side.

Don't you have any maternal uncles or aunts?

If your mother's family concerns you, what about your maternal grandmother's family?

Even if it's distant relatives, you must have someone.

Did they sew her mouth closed?

- Why isn't she talking...? - I'm going to go out for some air.

No. If you want to go somewhere, I can take you...

You're rude. Aren't you?

It's weird, right, Father?

I don't know.

Father... can't we live with her?

No!

Why...?

Everyone's eyes is deep red trying to capture her.

Are you crazy? She's a headache. A headache.

But still, she's pitiful. She has nowhere to go...

In the palace she met a strange lady, who was either a gae si ("lady") or gae-dung ("dog poop")

Wow, she told her to die.

Die? Why?

They were talking about some treason.

She told her to die for the king's sake.

The king even saw her, but the princess didn't even acknowledge him.

Maybe she's possessed by that weird lady.

But... it seems as if the king also pretended to ignore her.

What do you mean? You are saying that he saw his own daughter and ignored her?

Yes. I definitely saw it.

When the princess' eyes met his, the king's eyes were...

Stop saying senseless things. Go sleep!

Definitely... they did.

Raise your head.

I'm going to Buyongji (Pond). Follow me.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Did you make sure to guard everything up to the Bukso Gate?

Yes. I made sure to put guards at every gate that leads out of the city.

But, if the princess' maternal grandmother is in Anseong, her mother came from Cheongju,

and that man's hometown in Gongju, they will head south.

Wouldn't it be enough if we just block Mapo Dock, Seodae Gate, Seoso Gate and Namdae Gate?

Do you mean why did I uselessly say to block all the way to Bukso Gate?

No, that was not what I meant.

Is there any rule that says he can't think as you would?

I'm asking if there is any guarantee that he would only move as we expect him to.

Forgive me. I was short-sighted.

He was the one who was able to bossam the princess.

Why can't you understand that moving in a hurry could land us in even greater trouble?

She may not have been able to change clothes yet.

Have them keep an eye out for a woman in white.

I have already ordered that they look out for a woman in white.

If she shows up anywhere, they will kill her on the spot.

Wait.

Stay right there.

Grab her!

That's so awesome! Isn't it, Your Highness?

Let's now part ways.

F-father!

We're going this way. So you can either go this way or go back. You decide.

No! If you don't go with her highness, I'm not going either!

Come here.

Father! I'm not going!

Father! Let's go with her highness!

I'm not—

Let's go with her highness!

Father!

Safe travels, boy.

I pray that you grow without any problem.

Go with her highness!

Father!

I said let's go with her highness!

How could you leave her like that?!

- Will you not stop crying?! - I'm not going without her!

I said let's go together with her!

Come here!

I'm not going!

The fact that Your Highness is alive

will be trouble to his majesty, the king.

It won't just be the left state councillor and his family,

but also the northern faction.

Perhaps... a true revolt will happen.

Can you bear the responsibility for all of this, Your Highness?

Please die, your Highness.

If Her Highness dies, is it fine with you?

They're so pretty. Thank you.

Bossam - Steal the Fate Preview

I'm telling you to start living for yourself!

What are you saying I should live for?

Who needs a reason to live?

I'm no longer the princess.

But if you get caught by your pursuers,

It's a thief!

Why are you going this far?

I'm a dead person, just like you.

Weren't you the one who brought me here

It's not too late to die now!

Your Highness!

- Have you found her? - Yes, Your Majesty.

Let the news leak to the Left State Councillor.
