Atten-hut!

There are the Japanese spies that
were captured in Bub-sung Port.

I believe you've met them.

If your men can stop these men,
I will allow you to return to

Nok-do and prepare a land battle.

Very well, sir.
Let's give it a shot.

You fool!

Get up and fight!
Fight!

Captain Chung!

Step back and observe!

You just lost all of
your men, Captain Chung.

If they were fighting with real swords,
not one would be alive right now.

If there're hundreds of thousands of
men like those spies, we don't stand

a chance against the
Japanese in close-combat.

But what if they succeed in landing?
We must be prepared for that as well.

That is why we must defeat
them before they land.

What is the quickest way
to disable the enemy?

Destroy their entire fleet.

We cannot let them take
the coast of Cholla.

If we do, they will march to
the capital in a matter of days.

What do you think
will happen next?

My first goal is to make the Left Cholla
Navy the strongest navy there is.

Anyone who stands in my way will
face harsh military discipline.

Kampaku is truly a powerful man.

Sensai...

He has fought and won
against your God.

I struggled long and
hard about what to do.

Would you keep it for me?

I was a Christian and the
Kampaku's daimyo at the same time.

But now, I will live only as a daimyo.

Are you sure you won't regret this?

I'm going to try.

I guess you are still young.

Perhaps it is my age,
but I can't be like you.

It's too hard for me to
discard what is in my heart.

And I often look back
and regret my past...

These are the warriors that will
conquer Chosun, Your Eminence!

We will vow with our blood
not to disappoint you!

Accept us, Your Eminence!

We vow you our loyalty!

You have my confidence!

Let the world know the
greatness of Japan!

Kiotsuke!

Rei!

Tsurumatsu.

Look son, these
are your servants.

Soon they will march to Choson.

And when they come back, you will
be the most powerful ruler that

Japan has ever seen!

Wabi-sabi...

I thought the state of perfect freedom
from avarice was the highest state

a man can achieve, but I guess I
have lived a paradoxical life...

What are you mumbling to yourself?
Are you chanting a sutra?

I'd like to drink my tea
from the golden cup today.

I'm in a wonderful mood today!

Didn't you hear me, Master Rikyu?

This is all I can give you.

I cannot serve your tea
in an inferior golden cup.

Inferior? Did you say inferior?

Gold bears much resemblance
to human greed.

Greed begets blood.

And we all know that
blood begets more blood.

Where will you be when
you wake up to regrets?

You will be surrounded by darkness.

Darkness, you say?

As a practitioner of Sado, it would
be wrong to lead you into such

treacherous hell.

Drink. Dawans of Chosun are humble
in nature, and causes one to feel

freedom from avarice.

Drink slowly and enjoy. It will
help take away the taste of blood.

Stop while you're ahead.

You maybe my tea master,
but I'm your ruler.

There is a limit to my
tolerance of your audacity.

I am not your subject,
Lord Hideyoshi.

Master Rikyu!

I am a disciple of Buddha.

But I don't know if Buddha
will forgive me and accept me.

Including my service to Oda Nobunaga,
I've been teaching Sado to murderers

for decades.

They all talked
about peace after unification.

And like a fool I believed them.

Sennorikyu! What are you
trying to say to me?

There is nothing you can
achieve with the sword.

If you look at the daimyos that have
submitted to your sword and believe

that you have seized the world,
you couldn't be more wrong.

They have submitted to
your power and authority,

but they are no sincere in
their desire to serve you.

And if they should ever
possess the power you possess,

they will aim their sword at you.

Haven't you caused
enough violence in Japan?

Must you seek bloodshed in Chosun?

Emptiness is the only thing you
will have left in the end.

How dare you!

Look at this dawan.

Unlike you, dawan
humble and honest.

It resembles the heart
of the people of Chosun.

Do not provoke them.

Or they will destroy your lust
for conquest in an instant.

Silence! Shut up at once!

The defender is always stronger
than aggressor. Do you know why?

It is because they
have a righteous cause.

Morality, peace, life...

they will risk their lives
to protect those things.

Your sword may be strong, and even
if you are able to kill every last

Chosunese and conquer their land,
you would not have truly won.

For how could a sword
destroy united spirit?

Would you do me the honor of
Kaishaku or would you call

someone for me?

I never thought you would
betray me this way.

You will see that this is my last
act of loyalty to you someday.

Just hope it is not too late.

Guard!

Sennorikyu wants to kill himself.
Give him a hand.

Sennorikyu...

He was the great tea Master revered
by leaders of the time Oda Nobunaga

and Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

He was also the man
who disseminated the simple

and humble form of tea ceremony
across Japan moving away from

the extravagant Chinese
influenced tradition.

He seems to have been one

of the few pacifists in Japan who held
Chosun culture with high regard.

Therefore, his seppuku was a defeat
for the pacifist and a testament to

Hideyoshi's unyielding ambition
and reckless quest for power.

While Hideyoshi was busily organizing
his Chosun Conquest in 1591,

the officials of Chosun were engrossed
in political posturing between factions

surrounding the selection of Heir
Apparent setting aside national

defense issues in the backburner.

Prince Shin-sung
has strong hands.

You can stop now.
You must be tired.

Withdraw your order, Father.

You have not a day of rest
engaged in important state affairs.

My fatigue is nothing
compared to yours, Father.

Why are you crying, Royal Concubine?
Is there something upsetting you?

How many more days of peace will
Shin-sung have? I'm so afraid...

Would you leave us, Shin-sung?

Yes, Father.

Come close.

That's all right, Your Majesty.

Come close, I said.

What is it? What makes you
concerned about Shin-sung's future?

Your Majesty...

Shall I send Shin-sung to
Kwang-hae's palace more often?

Shall I have him treat Kwang-hae
with respect of a king?

Brothers are to be
treated like brothers.

Why would he treat is
brother like a king?

They say that Kwang-hae
will succeed your throne.

Succeed my throne?

I have not once raised the
successor issue for discussion!

Who is spreading such rumors?

Everyone knows how
smart Kwang-hae is.

They sing praises of him and say that
he will become a benevolent king who

outshine his father.

I know that Kwang-hae is astute and
competent, but I can't help worrying

about what happened in the past.

His mother, Concubine Kong, had been
jealous of me when she was alive,

an both Prince Yim-hae and Kwang-hae
bear deep antipathy for me.

And when Kwan-hae rises o the
throne, Shin-sung will be the first

one he guards against.

- It is a groundless fear.
- Do not be concerned.

I'm not even forty years old,
and they're already talking

about my successor!

What is their motive?

Your Majesty...

We do not have the luxury to waste
our time with the successor issue!

This is about securing
the future of the state!

Japan is preparing
a war against us?

There will be no war, remember?

When will you stop
fooling yourselves?

There is not one of us in this room
who does not feel the threat of war!

Then are you suggesting that we do
a flip-flop and change our position?

Why not?

The Westerners will jump for joy!

This is not the time to talk
about Easterners and Westerners!

Officials of all ranks must come
together and prepare for this war!

Let us first install His Majesty's
preferred Prince as the Heir Apparent.

That'll give us greater power.

If we are going to change our
position, we can do it then.

We would be committing suicide
if we aggravate His Majesty now.

One, two! One, two!

I've had just about enough of this!

We haven't had a day of rest since
the new high commander got here!

We got the headquarters ship and the
ships from each garrisons to maintain!

And how come all of them
are in such bad shape?

I know.

They work us like slaves and don't
even give us the thanks we deserve!

Let's get back to work. It'll take
us all night to get the ship ready

for launch by tomorrow noon.

What are you, a saint?

How can you smile with all this
work they're making us do, Su-chang?

Leave him alone.
He's born craftsman.

Give him a ship to fix, and
he's the happiest man alive.

He's not like you and me.

My ship is falling apart?
Whatever do you mean?

There is serious corrosion
in the lower deck.

Don't kid around. No one's laughing,
and you're going to bring bad luck.

But sir, Sado garrison ship
is over ten years old.

And the wood that was
used was sealed poorly...

Boy, you're persistent!

It's all right.
That ship was fine yesterday.

You saw it with your own two eyes.

Yes, but that will
be the last time.

I told you last year that you need
to build a new ship, but only Sado

Garrison hasn't...

Goodness, do I have
to explain everything?

We had no budget! No budget!

We couldn't even die if we wanted
to because we didn't have the

budget to buy poison!

You have to tell
the high commander.

That ship is in no shape
to go out into the ocean.

This is serious.
The soldiers can get hurt.

Goodness! Would you stop it before
I stitch your lips together?

Or are you going build a new
ship overnight yourself?

We can't skip the training
no matter what happens.

The high commander is
annoyed with us as it is.

And you want me to tell him that we're
going to sleep in and rest because our

ship just might have an accident?

What do you think he'll say?
"Sure, take a few days off?"

Not in a million years! He'll think
it's just an excuse to play hooky!

Then I'll talk to him.
He can come see for himself.

Oh yeah? That'll put
you in the hot seat.

It's not just my fault that
our ship is in poor condition.

Who is the one signed off all the
maintenance reports as operable

without even coming
by to inspect if?

Was it me? No!
Then who was it? It was you!

That's because the ships were never
used like they are being used now.

So I was just going along
with the official procedure...

Official procedure? Thai will
never fly with the high commander.

So if you don't want to get yourself
in trouble, fix the ship by tomorrow,

or just keep your mouth shut.

You don't want to get flogged
and do time in isolation, do you?

It's all right, I tell you!

That ship was fine yesterday
and it won't sink overnight.

It's all right.

Constable of Bu-ryong?

Take it. It's a letter of appointment
from His Majesty the King.

He regards highly of your
achievement in the Six Camps

despite your low marks, and he is
giving you another chance, so you

mustn't disappoint him.

Ah, it's Constable Won!

I heard you are going
back to the Six Camps.

The barbarians have been quiet
since the Shijun Battle, so

it'll be peaceful in
the northern front.

You'll be more like a village
magistrate if anything.

If you'll excuse me.

Of course.

You were pleading with His Majesty
to send him to the southern front.

Why are you sending
him to the Six Camps?

Don't we want him in the south where
there is threat of Japanese invasion

so he can render
meritorious service?

I'm muzzling a tiger.

Let him struggle in
a muzzle for a while.

And in due time I will reach
out and release the muzzle.

And out of gratitude he will
fetch anything I, his master,

ask him o fetch.

Won Kyun's courage and
ability need no explaining.

He will be a hero if we
just send him to the front.

The question is how
obedient he will be to us.

And until he is ready,
we need to wait.

Confess! Confess, I said!

There's got to be another
secret meeting place!

You evil wench!

Confess!

What are you doing out here this late
with that woeful look on your face?

You should be sleeping.

How about you? Where have
you been going every night?

Are you hiding a
woman somewhere?

A woman? I've been
out looking for Hong.

Why bother looking for her
when you know where she is?

What makes you think
know where she is?

I thought you were smart.
Isn't it obvious?

She's probably with that
Japanese guy Kimura.

Do you think so?

You're so dense when
it comes to women.

When a grown women goes into a
dark place at night to see a man,

it could only be one thing.

They couldn't have been
playing patty-cake in there.

She must realty be in
love with that guy...

for her to have left all of her
drawings behind to run off with him...

She could have at least
told us she was leaving.

We may not have been able to
give her a fancy wedding,

but we could've at least bought
her a embroidered lovers' quilt...

Mujik...

But then, I guess he's a rich guy.

He probably promised her those
beautiful silk Japanese dresses,

or she wouldn't have left all of her
clothes behind in this cold winter...

Bring the map back to
our usual meeting place.

I must revise the map.
You must come tonight immediately.

Akai Sama...

I trust you brought the map,
you treacherous spy!

You!

There's no doubt he
is a Japanese spy.

What is my reward for his capture?

Come to the Left Kyong-sang
Naval Base.

The high commander will
reward you generously.

Thank you, sir.

Excuse me...

What can I do for you?

Stop the water!
We're sinking!

What's this noise?

Give me that.
Come with me!

Who's there?!

What are you waiting for?
Grab the hammer from him!

Let go of me! I have to destroy
this ship! I have to destroy it!

Wait a minute, aren't you
Su-chang the shipwright?

Su-chang, what's wrong with you?
Don't just stand there! Stop him!

Give me that! Come on!

Let go! I have to destroy this ship!

Why did you damage the warship?

I am asking you why you destroyed
the Sado garrison's vessel!

I deserve death, sir...

How could you, a shipwright,
dare destroy a warship?

Warships are the most
important weapon to a navy.

Do you know what you've done?
You just helped the enemy!

It's not a warship.

What I destroyed is not a warship.
It's a floating murder weapon.

That boat could sink any day.
It's a disaster waiting to happen!

Constable.

What's going on?

Oh, well, that's...

Su-chang, the shipwright...

Did you call me, sir?

My goodness! Who on earth could
have done such a terrible thing?

A kid named Su-chang.

I'll find that boy
right now and...

If he hadn't destroyed this
ship first, I would have.

Sir!

Why? How could you think to
put your men aboard this ship?

You could have gotten
all of your men killed!

Why didn't you
report this to me?

Sir, my guess is he probably
couldn't get himself to report it

out of fear of slowing
down the training.

Do you think that's
a justifiable excuse?

All of our ships in the Left Cholla
Navy have problems although not as

severe as this one.

Shouldn't we inspect the ships first
before we carry on with our training?

Sir.

Very well. I will see
what can be done.

Thank you, thank you very
much, Constable Kwon.

You haven't once ordered repairs on
the ship since you took office, I'm told.

The high commander has a valid
reason to be upset, Commander Kim.

I'm trying my best
to do my job, but...

Regardless of the reason, I cannot
overtook the fact that you destroyed

a naval vessel.

I know, sir.

How do you think you
should redeem yourself?

Including the six that we have in the
headquarters, we have thirty vessels

in all in the Left Cholla Navy.

Of those, roughly twenty are

inoperative like the one
possessed by Sado Garrison.

You mean we only have ten ships
that are in operating condition?

Yes, sir.

But with some good layering and
smoke-sealing work, about five of the

twenty can be salvaged and utilized
for another two to three years.

That means we have to build at least
fifteen new ships from ground up...

Would you like to see
how they are designed?

The keel on flat-roof ships run 70
feet in length and 15 feet across.

The ship is 30 feet wide
and 80 feet long.

Flat-roof ships are mostly made of pine
because it's light, easy to work with,

and durable in water.

So they're suitable for the keel,
the hall and the upper deck.

But the oak is best for the mast,

rosewood for the rudder
and Zelkova for the oars.

I am impressed. How do you know
so much about flat-roof ships

and when did you catalog
all these details?

I'm flattered, sir.

Do you have a teacher?

My departed father was
a shipwright like me.

He worked under General Chung Gull.
Making ships was his life.

My skills are nothing
compared to his.

You're up.

Sir.

Do you like your new uniform?

Pardon?

That's yours from now on.
Put in on and come with me.

Sir...!

As you all know, this is Cho Su-chang,
the shipwright at this naval station.

Starting today, he is the director of
our shipbuilding project with authority

equal to yours.

Sir, you are granting a shipwright
authority of a garrison commander?

That's right.

Not only will he join us in our
meetings, but you are to obey him

in all matters relating to building,
repair, maintenance and operation

of the naval vessels.

Are you telling us to
obey that boy's orders?

This is ridiculous!

Commander!

Sir...!
