[1551 - Tuscany, Italy]

Mister Lee.

Mister Lee!

Mister Lee, eat your dinner.

Mister Lee, you should eat your dinner.

Mister Lee!

You should eat dinner, Mister Lee.

I'll leave it by your door.

[Saimdang: Light's Diary]

[Episode 1]

How are you able to
drive the golf ball so far?

I was very surprised today.

What do you mean?
I hit it 10 yards closer than last year.

- Come on in.
- You're here early.

Oh, Ji Yoon.

- It's been a long time, Senior.
- Yeah, it has.

- Did you play well?
- Yes.

- Can I get a cold drink?
- Yes.

I brought over some magnolia tea.

- Magnolia? Sounds good.
- Yes.

I'll put ice in it and
we can serve it cold.

Shall we?

Oh my word.

I don't know if it's seasoned right.

I know your skills, Ji Yoon.

I feel bad accepting so much.

You're having a housewarming,
so of course I should.

Yum. It tastes just right.

Aren't you bringing the beverages?

Yes, coming.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Ji Yoon brought this.

She brought vegetables
and lots of other side dishes.

You should set up a round
of golf with the director.

Yes, you should do that.

She wouldn't refuse
her own niece, would she?

My aunt is just so busy.

Mom!

Why isn't someone coming
to fix the computer?

The internet keeps turning on and off.

You were home?

It needs to be repaired.

Hey, why are you whining to us
about the computer?

If you were home,
you should've come out to say hello.

I don't care. I just don't!

I'll fix it for you.

Look at her manners.

The research paper on
An Gyeon's "Mount Geumgang."

I want you to write it.

- What?
- Congratulations, Ji Yoon.

You know what it means to
get to write that paper, don't you?

Yes... of course.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

It's a genuine An Gyeon piece
that has shown up after 500 years.

Make people's blood circulate
and make them feel alive.

Make something out of it.

Here are the contents for the paper.

Thank you so much.

I guess I should call you
Professor Seo now.

I think a spot will be opening up soon.

Thank you very much.

Thank you, Professor!

I'll do my best and
I will do a great job of writing it!

Thank you!

[Min Jung Hak]

That's strange.

- Yes, Mother.
- Why are you late?

All the uncles are here.

Oh my goodness.
Oh, what do I do?

I'm so sorry.

I didn't realize what time it was.

I'll be right there. I'm so sorry.

You know that the
entire industry is watching us

concerning "Mount Geumgang," right?

They say it's all everyone is talking
about at the Blue House, as well.

Of course.

It is An Gyeon's
"Mount Geumgang," after all.

You're saying it's one of a kind.

Without a doubt,
it will become a national treasure.

Art pieces tend to appreciate in value
depending on who owns them.

- From now on, Sun Gallery--
- Professor Min.

As for me...

I do not judge art
only for its monetary value.

I was only referring to your status
and that of Sun Gallery.

I know all about
your hard work and effort.

So I should repay you
for that effort, shouldn't I?

Director.

Ah... I mean, Chairwoman.

About President Kim,
who is currently in place...

All he has done is mismanage the
lecturers, creating tension and chaos.

I'm not telling you as director.

I'm telling you because you are the
chairwoman of the Korean foundation.

He doesn't have long
in his position, does he?

You are someone who can even become
the Culture Department Head, Director.

Especially with
An Gyeon's "Mount Geumgang."

We should both benefit, shouldn't we?

I'm sorry.

Hello, everyone. I'm sorry.

I'm late. Did you have dinner?

Yes, we did.

Our nephew's wife is a professor,
is that right?

She isn't a professor right now,
but she will be soon, for certain.

Yes, please wait a little bit.

Isn't my nephew coming?

He is just so busy.

Did you see his interview
in the news recently?

That's amazing.

You should go on in and study.
You have a paper to write.

It's all right. I'll do it.

My son's business is going well
and Eun Soo won first place.

If my daughter-in-law became a professor
I wouldn't need anything more.

These autumn trees.

Autumn trees...

This is from Japan's Edo period.

An Gyeon's painting
and the period don't match.

Oh, this is hard.

Hello?

This is Jung Min Suk's home, right?

Yes, it is.

Is he home?

He's not home yet.
May I ask who's calling?

This is JK Bank.
Please tell him that we called.

Why would a bank call?

Honey?

Here.

What about Mom?

She must be tired. She's asleep.

A really amazing piece came in.
An Gyeon's "Mount Geumgang."

Professor Min authenticated it and
Sun Jin Group's gallery is displaying it.

But... it feels off.

The strokes and ink
feel strangely frustrated.

The texture of the
silk canvas isn't right either.

It should be elegant and bold.

Strangely, there's something
about it that feels--

Are you going to take an opposing view?

Against someone like Professor Min?

Don't fool around and just go with it.

Don't act like crazy person.

You sure have a way of putting things.

Oh yeah.

A bank called earlier.
They were looking for you.

Why would they call home at this hour?

Huh?

Huh?

Gosh, gosh, gosh...

I'm going to a conference.

I'm taking a flight on
Saturday at 11:00 a.m.

Where to?

Bologna.

Bologna?

Bologna? Italy?

Yes.

What am I supposed to do with
Eun Soo if you leave so suddenly?

It's not sudden.

I told you last month that it would
overlap with the Daechi-dong meeting.

You know the one thing Mother is
sensitive about is Eun Soo's education.

Don't you know she'll throw a fit?

Seriously, gosh...

As you all know, up until now

we had only found
one of An Gyeon's works.

That one piece is being displayed
in a museum in Japan.

However, after 500 years,
this seems almost like a miracle.

An Gyeon's "Mount Geumgang"
is here before us today.

She is someone who will
be very useful in the future.

We'll now hear from Professor
Min Jung Hak of Korea University

an expert on An Gyeon.

He will discuss the discovery
and significance of "Mount Geumgang."

Professor Min Jung Hak.

First, the fact that
I am standing here...

is overwhelming.

During the Joseon era, the belief was

that our place in East Asia
was second to that of China.

It was a centralized way of thinking.

On the other hand, they had
a desire to take on Chinese arts.

Artists would paint
and draw ideal landscapes.

The representative piece of that time

is An Gyeon's "Dream Journey
to the Peach Blossom Land."

The discovery of "Mount Geumgang"

is truly a shining inspiration
for Korean art.

It is the discovery of the century.

May I ask a question?

Who is that?

It's Han Sang Hyun.

He got fired for arguing
with Professor Min.

If one looks at "Mount Geumgang,"
the brush strokes are similar.

However, there is not one line of
calligraphy similar to An Gyeon's work.

Also, the mounting has
autumn trees on it.

That is commonly found
in the Japanese Edo period.

I would say there are many differences
to An Gyeon's work.

That painting, "Mount Geumgang."

Is it truly an authentic piece?

If Professor Min, who studied
An Gyeon at Yale University, says so

does that mean it is the law and fact?

Hey! A school where one cannot
express opposing views is a dead one.

Let him go.

I will ask you, Seo Ji Yoon.

Don't answer as Professor Min's student,
but as an academic scholar.

Can you say, without a doubt,
that this is An Gyeon's work?

I...

do not really know.

You see? She says it's not.

You should give us a reason.
Is there one?

You spoke about the mounting frame.

It is true that the autumn trees
are only seen in the Edo period.

However, many drawings
are re-mounted afterward.

You cannot judge it by
the frame and mountings.

You should decide based on the
actual art, calligraphy, and so on.

When that is not possible,
you must use carbon dating.

The final decision must
be made by the expert.

Professor Min is someone who has
researched An Gyeon for 30 years.

Isn't it unreasonable to talk
of brush strokes to him?

You must have watched too many
TV programs on art artifacts.

There is always a slimy fish
like that somewhere.

Don't worry about it.

You're sure about it?

You are responsible for An Gyeon's
"Mount Geumgang", Professor Min.

Yes, I'm confident and putting my
30 years of research on the line.

Professor!

That arrogant girl.

Professor, Professor.

I am so sorry.

It wasn't like that.
It was just the situation...

It became a hot topic.

He's just a former lecturer who's crazy.
It won't be a problem.

We'll get one more article
out of it. It's okay.

Just prepare for the Bologna conference.

Yes, I will.

I'll prepare and make it perfect.
Thank you, Professor.

Wait a minute.

Wow.

- Thank you.
- Thank you. Looks good.

The customer is unavailable.
Please leave a voicemail.

It's been 100 years since we've
had dinner out. Where are you?

We're supposed to tell your mom
about my Italy conference today.

You're killing me here! Seriously.

Hey, the food here is really good.

Ah, yes.

- Let's sit down and eat.
- Okay.

Hey! Does this make any sense?

Does it make sense to suddenly do that?

President, the stocks are going crazy.

They're dropping.
We've lost 12 billion won already.

Hey!

We're here to search everything.

Drop everything and stay where you are.

Stay where you are.

President. President!

What is going on?

They were looking for President Jung,
so I opened the door.

Who are they?

Oh, so you're here.

Who are you people?

Where is Jung Min Suk?

- Who are you people?
- Talk to me.

Who are you?

Who are you people that
you'd create this commotion here?

This is the bond of debt your husband
signed when he borrowed my money.

Look! Take a good look.

Then go talk to him.
We don't know anything.

How can we talk to him?
He turned his phone off and ran!

We won't take one step out of here
until we get our money, just so you know.

What are you people doing?

If you don't get out,
I'll report you all for breaking in.

Report us? Go ahead. Do it!

Call the police!

- Go ahead!
- Mom!

Why don't you watch over
your husband properly, lady!

Get out.

Stop it!

Hello?

Where are you?

I can't talk long. Listen carefully.

Take my mom and Eun Soo
somewhere. Hide out for now.

I'll call again.

Honey? Honey?

Hey. Get back here!

Your husband called, didn't he?

Where is your husband? Where is he?

Call him now. Call him!

Where did you hide him?

- Ji Yoon.
- Oh, Hye Jung.

Sorry, I had no one else to call.

You did well. You did.

Oh my. Hello, Mother.

Come on in.

Come on, Eun Soo.

You must be so shocked, Mother.

Oh gosh.

I don't know what I should do.

At a time like this,
becoming a professor, conferences...

what's the point in all of that?

What are you saying?

You need to stay focused now
and go do a good job.

You have to become a professor
no matter what, right?

Ji Yoon, let's be strong.

Get up.

Yeah, okay.

Let's go.

Should I add some anchovies too?

Yes, let's do that.

Gosh, you have to become a professor
this time for sure.

Even it takes catching a whale,
not these anchovies.

I'm going to.

I'll play dead if they need me to die.

Even if I wear down my feet,
I will become a professor.

Yeah. Hey, this looks stir-fry
looks good, doesn't it?

Mother, I'll be going to my conference.

All right.

No matter what happens this time,
I will become a professor.

Then we can live off my salary
until he comes back.

So, you have to remain strong, Mother.

Okay.

Don't worry about things here
and do a good job there.

Okay.

I organized the slides by topic.

On the left, you can
summarize Joseon art first.

Then you can go on
to still life on the right.

Will you describe
the presentation yourself?

- What about the script?
- Here you go.

Please read it and let me know
if you need anything edited.

Yes. Here.

What's wrong with the color and design?

You confirmed it.

I'll fix it.

What are you doing here?

I ran out of battery.
They don't have outlets in economy.

Professor, I edited it like this.

How is it?

That's fine.

[Bologna, Italy]

Good day!
(In Italian)

Here...

Ah, here.

Oh, thank you.

You speak Korean?

Yes, my wife is a Korean adoptee.

My wife and I are both learning Korean.
I'm not very good yet.

You're very good.

Thank you.

I'm actually a fan.

Oh, my book.

Can you sign it for me?

Yes, of course. Your name?

Seo Ji Yoon. Ji Yoon Seo.

J-I, Y-O-O-N.

S-E-O.

Thank you.

I know you. I saw you on Youtube.

"Mount Geumgang."

Are you sure it's authentic?

Youtube?

Yes. What's wrong is wrong.

If it's not real, it isn't right.

There is a lot off
about "Mount Geumgang."

It needs to researched again.

Are you here?

Oh, Professor Min. It's nice to see you.

- It's been a long time.
- Oh yes.

Your Korean has improved a lot.

Can you say, without a doubt,
that this is An Gyeon's work?

Oh, what do I do?

I do not really know.

You see? She says it's not.

What am I going to do?

A school where one cannot
express opposing views is a dead one.

Don't answer as Professor Min's student,
but as an academic scholar.

Can you say, without a doubt,
that this is An Gyeon's work?

Hey, hey, hey!

Are you really my assistant professors?
You can't even take care that?

Just know that you will all be fired.

Hang up. I have another call.

Yes, Director.

What do you think you're doing?
subtitles ripped and synced by riri13

It's really nothing,
just kids joking around.

- It's like noise marketing--
- I don't need it.

Take care of it immediately.

All right. I'll take care of it.

Of course, I requested
that they remove it.

Yoo Bin's dad has a friend
who works at Youtube.

He said he'd contact him,
so let's wait and see.

Things are already difficult.
What bad timing.

All right. Thanks.

Help me out.

Okay.

Look at the time already.

Let me see. I have to put on makeup.

Excuse me.
(In Italian)

Go out.

Buy me some toothpaste and a toothbrush.

Excuse me?

You don't understand?

Toothpaste and toothbrush,
the electric, pulsating kind.

Oh, buy me a pair of socks too.

You know what I wear, don't you?

Do you mean right now?

Now... right at this moment.

Yes, okay.

They should hurry it up.

I bought you three pairs of socks

the electric toothbrush,
and toothpaste.

You should leave.

What?

Get out of my sight.

What do you mean by that?

Are you that bad at
understanding the situation?

Don't you know who I am?

Change your major while
I'm still being kind about it.

Don't show your face
in front of me again.

I'll stomp on you nice and hard so that
you can't work in this field again.

Professor, there must be
a misunderstanding.

Why are my things out here?

- Who made me leave?
- Please, Madam.

Please, Madam. Calm down.

- I didn't check out. I can't go.
- I'm sorry.

- Tell me, who made me leave?
- I don't understand. Calm down.

- Tell me who!
- I understand you're frustrated.

- I can't.
- Just calm down.

- Who was it?
- Calm down.

Tell me! I don't know
why I have to leave.

Come on. Get out.

Hello?

What happened?

What happened there?

They said that you didn't attend the
conference, went shopping, and left.

Professor Min called and threw a fit.

He said you were an embarrassment
to Korea and to fire you.

What nonsense.

Min Jung Hak planned this advance
and came after you.

This is about the
"Mount Geumgang" piece, isn't it?

What a petty and nasty man.

He takes everything he can from all
his students and tosses them aside.

He deserves to get hit by lightning!

Unless there's proof that his
"Mount Geumgang" is a fake

there's no answer to this fight.

There is no way to win this.

That makes no sense.

This is complete nonsense!
How could this happen?

This is ridiculous.

That dirty bastard.

All he did was work me to death.

He made me work for five years
and didn't give me my PhD.

I didn't even complain once.

I did everything he asked me to,
like I was his caretaker.

Even this book...

I wrote this whole thing.

The research, corrections...
I did everything!

I went along with that dirty-temper
and picky personality of his.

Hey! You disgusting bastard!

Every time the season changed...

I brought over soybean paste,
red pepper paste, and kimchi.

How could you do this to me?

Hey, pretty lady.

Pretty lady, want to
have a drink with us?

What are you doing? Are you angry?
Have a drink with us.

- Hello there. Have a drink with us.
- No, no!

Get away from me! Go.

Move! It's dangerous!

- Oh, sorry.
- No, no.

- Leave it. It's okay.
- I'm sorry.

- Don't worry.
- Sorry.

You didn't break anything.

No need to worry.

- No, no. I don't need your money.
- Sorry...

The important thing is that you're okay.

Okay, I'll take it if it's so important,
but you must smile.

Everything is okay.

- It will work out. Smile.
- Sorry.

Wait!

Wait!

Wait, beautiful lady.

You're in Italy, so smile.

This is yours, so take it.

You should smile.
Your luck may be just around the corner.

Thank you.

Good luck.

We've lost our house
to the debt collectors.

I think you may have to stay with
Hye Jung for the time being.

I'm sorry.

That jerk.

You think it's only hard for you.

You said I could stick to studying
if I married you.

What the heck is this, you jerk?

Really?

Mount... Geumgang?

Mount Geumgang.

Gyeom Jae? Danwon?

Is this possibly...
An Gyeon's "Mount Geumgang"?

Siesta Di Luna?

That's Italian.

Hold on.

Moon? Moon's sleep.

There are no marks on the front.

Siesta Di Luna?

Mount Geumgang...

It is the Siesta Di Luna.

Is it a title of a book?

What? No, no.

[Tuscany, Italy]

I think we've arrived at the
Siesta Di Luna.

- I see the Siesta Di Luna.
- Siesta Di Luna!

I've brought the beautiful lady]
to the Siesta Di Luna.

Siesta Di Luna...

Hello, beautiful woman.

How are you?

Is there something I can help you with?

Come in.

Welcome.

It is beautiful, isn't it?

This is the party room.

Many people gathered here for parties.

What's the matter?

What is it? Is something wrong?

Excuse me, where are you going?

You cannot go up there.
It is nothing but empty rooms.

I told you there is nothing up there.

Wait up.

Do you not understand what I'm saying?

Where are you going?

Why are you acting this way?

Why are you behaving in this way?

Is something wrong?

Please, tell me why you are
suddenly acting like this.

Look at that. The window is open again.

I told them many times
to close that window.

Look at that. There's a dove.

Oh, how cute it is.

What in the world is going on?

This is a sign from fate.

The heavens have revealed it to us.

The heavens have shown us.

What could this mean?

Siesta Di Luna.

I cannot believe it. I really can't.

It is unbelievable.

Do you see? This house holds a secret.

I will give all these items to you.

These all belong to you. It is fate.

It is fate. It is a sign.

"Ji Ae Jib Yi Geuk Chun."

"Han Shim Yi Dan Jang."

"Bool Sa Joo Ya."

"Flowing and flowing."

"To feel regret for
the death of an innocent."

"Letting go of this
desperate sadness to the skies."

"The past memories"...

"Written"?

"Must be written."

Wow.

These seeds look like
they're hundreds of years old.

Where did you get them from?

Italy.

I'll contact you after analyzing them.

Okay.

- Yeah, Hye Jung.
- Where are you?

I just got back.

I think I need to go to the school first.

Okay.

You can't tell my mother-in-law
about what happened, okay?

Of course.
Eun Soo's fine, so don't worry.

- Just go to school.
- Thank you.

[Instructor for Understanding Korean Art
course has been replaced...]

[Notice of a disciplinary committee
review for Seo Ji Yoon...]

What do you mean, replacement instructor?

It doesn't make sense in
the middle of the semester.

I have a long time left on my contract.
How can you end it like this?

I told you already.

I can't give you any answers right now.

Your disciplinary committee meeting is
tomorrow, so try talking to them then.

Why would I have a
disciplinary committee?

I haven't done anything
to receive discipline.

Instructor Seo Ji Yoon.

We're already in a difficult position
because instructors are protesting.

Why are all of you like this?

Don't bother us with that here
and discuss it with them.

Hold on.

Senior, Senior!

Why are you such a fast walker?

Let go.

Come on, now. Please hear me out.

- To tell you the truth, it was--
- What?

Should I protest with you?

Is this the democracy and public interest
you guys are talking about?

That's not it.

I felt bad, so I wanted to say sorry.

Sorry?

Is it enough to say sorry
after you kill a person?

Honestly, this isn't a
life or death issue.

I am sorry for dragging you into it
like a water ghost.

You did slightly agree with me
that you didn't really know.

To be blunt, it's not like you'll
starve because you got fired.

It won't cause problems in your life.

Don't speak so carelessly.

Do you think it's a salary for you,
but just a hobby for me?

What do you know?

Do you know how I've lived?

Don't ever approach me again. Got it?

Excuse me, excuse me. Can I, can I...

Can I talk to a person
that worked that day?

Vacation?

Hello? Hello?

What? What is it?

They say they don't know.

They can't get in touch with
the people who worked that day.

What should we do?

Okay, well this is
what I've written so far.

Take a look.

I had no choice but to leave
due to Professor Min's orders.

Hey, hey. I'll take a half-day off
and go be your witness.

We'll use our call logs and texts
from when you were in Bologna.

- Hello?
- It's me.

Eun Soo's dad?

Where are you?

Locker number eight.
Combo is your birthday.

Honey!

Eun Soo's dad!

Eun Soo's dad!

Take this for now. I'll call again.

During the Bologna conference,
why did you act on your own?

It seems you entered
Korea separately, as well.

Why did you come back early?

Professor Min and I
had a small misunderstanding.

It was during an event,
so there was no time to resolve it.

Professor Min ordered me
to return, so I did.

A misunderstanding? What kind?

I would like to ask him.
Why would he misunderstand me?

I'd like to show that
I did not act on my own.

These are some documents to show that.

I also have a witness outside who knows
my situation from the conference well.

If you need her to, she will testify.

What is that?

Shopping during a conference?
Are you in your right mind?

That's not it.

Hey!

You disgusting bastard!

The Crazy Korean Woman.

I brought over soybean paste,
red pepper paste, and kimchi.

I have responsibility as her
academic adviser, as well.

For the image of the school

I hope you all understand that I had
no choice but to terminate her contract.

Instructor Seo Ji Yoon.

As per section 7.2 of the Faculty Rules

if you severely dishonor the school,
you may be dismissed without notice.

Do you have any objections?

Then as per section 8.4
of the Faculty Rules

Instructor Seo Ji Yoon's contract
will be terminated.

Thank you.

Good job.

Ji Yoon. Are you okay, Ji Yoon?

What do we do?
That Min Jung Hak ought to die.

I will get him somehow.

Where are you going, Ji Yoon?

Senior, Senior!

I apologize.

What happened to the
confident Seo Ji Yoon?

I was wrong.

Just this once...

Forgive me this once.

You stuck out your neck for me to strike.

It wouldn't be right if I didn't.

I will strike you so that
you bleed and suffer a lot.

Please save me.

I was wrong.

I was wrong about everything, Professor.

Please save me.

What are you guys doing?

Forgive me, Professor. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Forgive me this once.

Professor!

Senior.

Professor, I'm so sorry.

Forgive me this one time.

[Saimdang: Light's Diary]

Mount Geumgang.

If this is about
An Gyeon's "Mount Geumgang"

this is clear evidence that
Professor Min's painting is a fake.

It mentions An Gyeon's
"Mount Geumgang" right away.

My name is Gyeom, Lee Gyeom.

What is your name?

Saimdang.

The two main characters in that book
are Saimdang and Lee Gyeom.

This is a portrait of Saimdang.

There was an earthquake
measuring in at 4.9.

Where is this place?

You were sick for several days.

Are you seeing things now?
