[Saimdang: Light's Diary]

Lee Gyeom is here.

It has been 20 years, 20 years.

Buy this ink from the Ming Dynasty.

- Did you steal it?
- I bought it from a lady.

How could you do this?

How could you be with another man
without one word of explanation?

20 years ago...

the boy overflowing with talent
whom I loved so much...

I feel that he is gone forever.

This arrived for you, my lady.

He is alive.

His art is alive again.

Children, have you not seen
Hyun Ryong and Woo?

Woo!

[Saimdang: Light's Diary]

What are you doing here?

[Episode 7]
Where is Woo?

Woo.

Here you go.

Go to your mother.

Wait.

The boy dropped this.

Let's go.

What is wrong, Mother?

Hurry. Come along.

You're back?

Where did you go?

Hyun Ryong.

You must not go there ever again.

Go inside and study.

Yes.

All because of me and my painting...

All those people...

- Wife.
- Save them, please.

Wife, are you all right?

Look at that sweat. Hold on.

Wife... look at this sweat.

What were you dreaming about?

Are you all right?

You seemed all right the past few years.

Have the nightmares started again?

Flower and bird make a complete picture?

Peonies...

Peonies....

Peonies, he said.

Find the owner of this ribbon.

She must be killed

My lord.

Come in.

They say Lee Gyeom was a
natural talent at everything.

They called him the second coming
of the genius Silla artist Solgo.

When he played music,
they say he was like Master Baek Kyul.

On top of that,
he is talented at dance, and all arts.

Where has he been and what has
he been doing for the past 20 years?

He was raised in Gangneun by his aunt.

Go on.

He was set to marry in Gangneun,
but it fell apart.

Afterwards, he shaved his head
and went to Mount Geumgang.

Then he went to islands
like Tamra and Woosan.

It has not even been five years
since he's been back in the world.

His marriage in Gangneun fell apart?

Go to Gangneun right now.

Find out which family the girl
was from and who she was.

Find out everything.

Yes.

Who are you, Lee Gyeom?

Lee Gyeom.

I cannot reveal my name.

I am writing you...

with hope that I can keep
something bad from happening.

Be careful of Min Chi Hyung.

There's a saying that white cranes should
never go where black crows congregate.

He is someone who brings
great trouble to those around him.

I am certain he will cause harm to you.

Therefore, be wary of him
and keep your distance.

I am unable to make myself known to you.

Please heed my warning.

So, who gave this letter to you?

It was a very poor and
shabby-looking beggar boy.

- A beggar boy?
- Yes.

All right. You may leave.

Cannot make yourself known to me?

Min Chi Hyung.

You are surrounded by enemies.

[Jangwon Paper Market: Hanyang's leading
paper market owned by Min Chi Hyung]

Especially Min Chi Hyung.

I can tell merely by looking
at his face that he is rotten.

I am positive he is very corrupt.

This is where we start.

What? Start?

How much is one like this?

That is five bun.

That much for quality this low?

I think that's far too high.

What do you mean?
You should try the rural areas.

We do not make much profit.

You get to set whatever price you like
since you have a monopoly.

Where do you get the supply of paper?

Where else do you
have shops besides here?

Are you from the government?

Come now. Is it not obvious?

Why didn't you say so?

Everything is good here.

You must be tired from
working so hard for our country.

Here, why don't you
have a drink, on me?

Oh, there's no need.

You rascal! What do you take me for?

It isn't even much.

Keep a close eye on this paper market.

Why?

Why do you talk so much?

I want to know who goes in and out,
and what their sales are, okay?

All right.

What is Lee Gyeom doing
all the way over here?

- You bastard!
- Who's there?

Hey, hey! It's me!

Are you even a human being?
Do you know what that house meant?

My father-in-law gave that house to
Hyun Ryong for the family to live in.

You call yourself a friend?
Are you a human being?

I'm sorry, friend!

I'm sorry. I really am sorry.

Oh, your face. My gosh.

- I didn't do that, did I?
- No.

Who did that to you? Who?

I have no right to see you. I'm sorry.

I really thought it would work out well.

It was upsetting to see you looking
bad to your wife all the time.

I wanted you to do something big
and have confidence.

Still, it pains me not
to do anything for you.

Oh, yes.

This is all I have in my home.

Take this, at least.

I wonder if I've been fooled again.

That guy is just a fraud.

Our house sure is far away.

Wife, come on out.

What is this?

Wife, this is expensive furniture
with art painted on it.

What is this thing?

Did you not hear me just now?

It's special furniture
with art painted on it.

Who were you fooled by this time?

How could this thing be that?

Someone just took an old thing
and drew on it.

Why must you always talk in that way?

Apparently, this is very expensive.

I was told to take this for now,
so I brought it from Namsan.

I carried it on my back, Wife.

It must have been very hard.

I will prepare your belongings
for your studies in the mountains.

Studies in the mountains?

Look at this one more time...
it is a special painting.

I'm telling you it is not.

It's not?

You tried to learn on your own
even when you had nothing.

What could be more admirable than that?

Insulted and treated with contempt...

I am no longer the
daughter of a tavern owner.

What do we do, my lady?

- The baby is, the baby is...
- What is it?

What is it?

The baby was premature and was stillborn.

It will be hard for her
to give birth again.

The baby was premature and was stillborn.

I have water prepared
for before you sleep.

Come in.

This is a headband.

I stitched a hawk onto it.

I have heard that hawks can
see objects clearly even in the dark.

It symbolizes the casting out of evil,
so it will get rid of your enemies.

"I hope you have the eyes of a hawk
and vanquish your enemies."

With that in mind,
I stitched in each seam.

Get rid of my enemies?

I will birth you a son.

You are out of line.

You are nothing but a small town girl.

"Sae Ae Mok Dan Hong."
"Jae Bae Man Won Joong."

"Soo Ji Hwang Cho Ya."
"Yeok Yoo Ho Hwa Chong."

"People of this world like red peonies,
so they planted many in the field."

"Who knew that even in rough grass,
beautiful flowers were growing?"

My status is low.
My intentions are not low.

I was able to learn reading
and writing only through listening.

I know I will be able to give birth
to intelligent sons for you.

How can it end here?
It was getting so good.

Ji Yoon!

Oh, Hye Jung.

Gosh, why are there so many stairs?
I'm so out of breath.

She's my friend from school.
She's your senior too, so say hello.

Hello, Senior.
I'm Han Sang Hyun.

- Let's work well together.
- Oh, Han Sang Hyun.

Senior, when will the
next page be restored?

I'm just so busy lately with the
organization restructuring and meetings.

I have to be careful and hide this too.

- You're suffering a lot.
- What are you saying?

From now on, let's call this
the Soojin Room Diary.

Oh, Soojin Room Diary?

I like it. This is where
Saimdang's house was.

This is where Saimdang's house was?

Oh my goodness. That is insane.

Oh my word. That's amazing.

Who is that fat lady anyway?

I know, right? Who is that?

My legs are killing me.

I'll head back and restore the rest.

I think it's going to
get more interesting.

- Contact me if you ever need help.
- Okay.

- Thanks.
- Bye!

Hey, come in a little later.

Why?

Just listen, would you?

I don't want to be under suspicion.
My mother-in-law is very sensitive.

Why didn't she just say so?

She treats me so poorly.

But this is upsetting
now that I think about it.

That mother-in-law...

Why would a young man like me
be with an older woman?

Wow...

Senior, wait for me!

Go.

I said go.

Seriously, just go.

I am.

Hey, why are they
going into the same house?

Are they living together?

Her husband's business fell into ruin
and he hid it from her.

What?

Then this is really big news.

So what are you saying?

They're living together.

What else?

There was a fat woman.

Yes, a fat woman joined them later on.

She talked a lot and then left.

A fat woman?

A fat woman...

What is this?

What is this?

Ji Yoon, can you come here?

Yes, quickly.

Hey, where are you?

Get to Hye Jung's museum lab.
It's urgent.

Hurry, okay?

Taxi!

Sang Hyun, where are you going?

Oh, stay here and hang out.

Is this her?

- I think so.
- Yes, it is.

She looks thinner there though.

The Central Museum.

Ah, you two wait here.

Hello.

Thank you.

"Because our souls are one."

"We are still together,
though I am gone."

"Like a thin gold sheet
that's been hammered down."

"We are merely far in distance."

So...

As for the paper,
it is the same as the Soojin Room Diary.

But if Saimdang wrote it,
it shouldn't be written in Korean.

It's a poem about undying love.

It's by John Donne,
a 16th century English poet.

It's a poem that I like a lot.

This memo was not written by Saimdang.

Seo Ji Yoon, what are you up to?

Was it not enough for you to ruin
the seminar on "Mount Geumgang"?

Professor!

What brings you by?

You've been doing well, right?
You look even better than before.

What are you saying?

What are you all doing here?

What are all of you up to?

Tell me now.

We've started a little club.

Yes, that's right.

The ILM Club.

The "I Love Min Jung Hak" club.

We just like you so much,
Professor Min.

Are you all crazy?

All of you...

I will be keeping my eye on you.

Professor, we need to get going.
What about you?

Yes, it's getting so late.
We'd better get going.

Yes. Let's go, Professor.

- Hurry up.
- Yes, Senior.

I'll be right out.
I just need to organize.

Bye, now.

Senior, are we going to be okay?

Be quiet.

Professor, you have
a call from the director.

Yes, Director.

Is he gone?

But I don't think we
can work here anymore.

Yeah, you're right.

We'll need to find another place.

- Yeah.
- Let's go.

Okay. Let's do it.

What is this place?

- A club.
- Club?

Over here!

Oh, so this is what it's like.
This is what clubs look like now.

It's so different than in my days.

You want to work here?

Bingo. Professor Min is
going to keep watching.

The museum is out of the question now.

Yeah, we can't work
at the museum anymore.

- Come this way.
- Is that where we dance?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

If you bring in the tools you need,
I think it could work.

What do you think?

It's a little small.

I'll need my optical instruments,
digital video, and microscope.

It could work.

I don't think it will be too hard
getting the tools to control humidity.

Can we use this place whenever we want?

A friend of mine owns this place.

I can help out in the hall and DJ.

I can use it however I please.

It's safe.

Here you go. This is on the house!

How can you guarantee that it's safe?

Hey, have you been fooled all your life?

Teaching Assistants Nam and Moon
won't even be allowed in here.

The cut-off is a 1986 birth year.
The security is very strict about that.

Seniors, you two are also...

What? What is it?

You would usually never be allowed in.

I will let them know it's a special case.

I'm done for now.
Let's see the new pages.

Here it is.

Holy!

What's going on with you?
Why didn't you pick up?

You said you'd dedicate a song to me.
When is that going to happen?

Hey, what are you doing all the way here?

- Okay, let's talk later.
- What are you doing?

Who are those women?

- I'll talk to you later.
- Why?

Why? Hey!

Gosh...

Who is that, Holy?

She's just a girl I know.
You don't need to worry about her.

- We don't have time. Read.
- Okay.

Oh, this is a different part.

"I did not know if the letter regarding
Min Chi Hyung had reached Lee Gyeom."

"I had no way of confirming."

"Difficult... water..."

"One who has seen the sea will have
difficulty talking about the water."

Now that I have seen the sea,
I no longer have anything to say.

Didn't you all know?

Now that he has
discovered a larger meaning

it is hard to talk about
the little things thoughtlessly.

Lord Lee Gyeom is such an artist.

Who are you?

- Who are you?
- Oh my.

Yeon Yi's mother, is something wrong?

You will wear down the floor.

If his face is handsome,
he should lack talent.

If he is that talented,
he should come from a bad family.
subtitles ripped and synced by riri13

I wonder who will marry him.

My heart feels so anxious about it.

What are you talking about?

You know him. Lord Lee Gyeom.

If I could run my fingers
along those dark eyebrows

I would have no further wishes.

Don't you worry.
He says he will never marry.

What do you mean?

In the middle of his marriage last time

they say he ran off.

Oh my! He has forethought.

Please sit down.

Today, I want to come to a decision

regarding the selection
of new students for our school.

Yes.

"Ja Wal."

"Yeo Soo Han Kim Guh Myun."

"Yeo Soo Han Kim Guh Myun."

"Yeo Ib Ji Shin Ji Shil Ha Yeo."

"Yeo Ib Ji Shin Ji Shil Ha Yeo."

Stay here and play.

- I'll be right back.
- All right.

Confucius said this.

If you live with a good person

it is like living with
fragrant plants and orchids.

After a long time,
you no longer notice the fragrance.

Soon, you will assimilate
with that fragrance.

If you live with a person
who is not good

it is like entering a shop
that reeks of fish.

After a long time,
you will no longer notice the fragrance.

Soon, you will assimilate
with that fragrance.

Those that have red become red.

Those that have black become black.

You're reciting the
"Myung Shim Bo Gam."

Oh, yes.

Yes, a part of it.

I haven't see you before.

I recently moved from North Pyeonchon.

North Pyeonchon? That is in Gangneun.

Yes, I lived there
with my mother's family.

I recently moved to the Soojin Room.

I wanted to attend this school.

However, we had
some problems in my family.

It turns out that I cannot.

What is your grandfather's name?

His name is Shin Myung Hwa.

He passed away early,
so I never met him.

You are all going too far.

Are you saying you will
commit a crime against the king?

Our lives are on the line right now.

We are saying we should
come up with a plan.

I cannot be a part of this any longer.

You are Lord Shin's grandson?

You know my grandfather?

Yes, of course.

Sir.

We need your seal on this. It's urgent.

Will you wait a moment?

[Lee Woo: Talent in literature, art, and
music allows him to travel in envoys.]

What is in there?

Yes. What are you so curious about?

You scoundrel. Come on.

What are you up to?

"Some will be good men."

"Some will be good men."

"Some will dark men
pretending to be good."

"Some will dark men
pretending to be good."

"Therefore, a good man"

"Therefore, a good man"

"Must make an effort
to live a good life."

Who are you?

What do you think you are doing here?

I have never seen you before.

I was passing by
and I heard people reading.

I was only listening.

Even if you can hear it,
it is not a class for just anyone.

It is only for children
of important families.

Can you not tell by seeing?

"Ja Wal Yoo Gyo Mu Ryu."

"There should be discrimination in
education based on status or age."

You may know a few words,
so you're talking back to me.

Yet, you have not learned
how to treat your elders.

How dare you?

"Nae Uh Bool Mi Geo Ha Mi."

"The words used against me are unkind,
so how can you expect kind words back?"

- I am--
- I am busy, so go about your business.

Where did he go?

That little rascal.

Woo!

What brings you here?

The mothers have reached a decision
and I wanted to inform you.

I am here to deliver the message.

I feel I have inconvenienced you all.

The selection of new students is
something the professors will decide.

Our gathering...

cannot allow just
anyone to attend this school.

We are a school that is
operated by the government.

We do have a criteria
for who is accepted.

How long has it been
since you started working?

Soon, you could be
sent off to another village.

Like other professors,
you don't know when you might leave.

I will assume you understand the
importance of the scholastic honor.

Also, I hope you will
pick suitable candidates.

And you have the correct judgment.

We cannot be certain of that yet.

If I have not instilled
that confidence in all of you...

I apologize.

If that is the way you took it,
I should apologize.

I did not intend to discuss
the education or classes.

However...

the final decisions on entrance
will be made by the mothers.

We plan on doing that
in the future, as well.

If you do not want us to get involved

keep an eye out
for children studying for free.

That should not happen again.

Are you leaving already?

This is a small gift.

You two should go and have a meal.

Very good.

Write it again.

Isn't he so good?

Yes, he is.

I wonder whose son he is.
He really is likable.

You're finding children cute.
I see the time has finally come.

It's time for you to marry!

So, I have this.

Look!

What do you think?

I just don't know
what kind of girl you want.

So I organized it.

Take a look. Pure?

Sensual?

Elegant? Lively? Look how lively!

Not that again.

By the way...

is this it? This is it?

How about someone pure
who can also be sensual?

Someone who is sensual and lively.

Isn't there anyone like that?

How come you only know
one thing and not two?

He's a prodigy!

He really is.

Woo!

- Woo!
- Brother!

- Where were you?
- You must be his brother.

- Bye, now.
- Yes, yes.

Come by often.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Be careful getting home.

Where are you looking?

I am dying because of the
pressure from Heonwonjang.

Stop. Just stop!

The persimmon burst.

It's good.

Try this dried persimmon.

It's fine.

Try it. They turned out well.

- No.
- Come on. Try one.

I told you not to.

Goodness, just try one.

Gosh, forget it then.

Over there. We don't only
need to pick them off trees.

Let's pick that persimmon today.

You want to steal?

You are not a good person.

If you are not with a good person,
it's like being in a smelly fish shop.

- Why you--
- He's right.

This isn't right.

This isn't stealing.

I've been looking.

That owner puts the
persimmons on a cart.

He always drops several on the street.

We're just taking it before
he drops it. Is that stealing?

Anyway, he's going to leave soon.

Let's take a few then.

He'll be dropping them anyway,
so it's ours if we take it first.

Two people stay on lookout
and two people take them.

Oh yeah. You said you're a
good person and don't want to.

You can stay out of it then.

Only us bad people
will eat the persimmons.

Can you watch my shop for me?
My stomach hurts.

Hurry it up.

Oh, they look so good.

My lady. Come outside.

The owner of this house, come out!

What is the problem?

Are these your...

children?

Yes, they are.

What is this about?

Well, it's just that the children...

they got caught stealing
these dried persimmons.

What?

Did you all really do that?

I said that we should not do it.

I'm sorry.

I will pay you for the persimmons.

I am very sorry.

You should teach your kids...

I suppose children can be like that.

They all grow up doing things like that.

You should come by my shop
with your children.

I'll sell you lots of persimmons
for a low price.

Here. Eat these.

What's going on? Who is he?

All of you. Follow me.

What's going on?

What is this?

Dried persimmons!

They taste good.

Wife, that's enough. Stop.

Look at their legs. There's blood.

- That's enough.
- Let go!

- Wife.
- Hyang, bring a bigger one!

What have they done so wrong? Stop.

We did it because we were hungry!

I was hungry!

We always ate them in North Pyeongchon.

In Hanyang, I can't recall
the last time I felt full.

They say they were hungry.
They were hungry.

When I was younger,
I did much worse...

This is all your fault, Dad!

It's your fault that
I can't go to school!

I hate being poor because
you lost all our money!

I'd rather be taken away for stealing.

Stop this at once!

All of you.

Change and follow me.

Wife...

Wife.

I don't mind going.

Can you tell me where we are going?

Next time, you guys ask.

- Come along.
- Yes.

I already asked once.

Where are we going right now?

I suppose she is going to throw you
all away since you do not listen.

Is it a skeleton cave?

Only she'd be able
to endure this so long.

I would have thrown you out long ago.

I would have thrown you out 100 times.

Why is she looking at me
when she says that?

Goodness, are you all
coming along all right?

Are we here?

Where is this place?

From here all the way to there,
is all our land.

- Really?
- Really?

All the way over there,
that is our land?

Did you not know what our inheritance
was in place of the house in Gangneun?

- You didn't know.
- No!

I did know.

My father prepared
this land for all of you.

But, Mother, in my eyes...

it looks like land that is useless.

We can't farm on it or build a house.

There isn't even a persimmon tree,
and they're so common.

Everyone, close your eyes.

Close them.

What do you see?

She said to close your eyes.

I do not see anything.

Everything is black.

Then... do not look.

Slowly, feel it.

I think there are flowers.

Flowers with a lovely fragrance.

Ah... I think they're gardenias.

I thought there was nothing,
but there are birds.

There must be a brook nearby.

I can hear sounds
of wild animals nearby.

The wind is tickling my head.

Wind, wind.

Yes.

Now, open your eyes and look around.

Look.

Does it still look like land
that is useless to you?

- No.
- No.

Do you still feel like we have nothing?

It isn't true.

When I think about this land
you're about to fill up and this world

I can already feel my heart race.

"Hwae Sa Hoo So."

It is section 8 of The Analects.

Confucius also said that you can only
draw once you have a white background.

That is why you need
white paper in order to draw.

That is right.

What do you want to build on this land?

I want to plant a persimmon tree.

Then we can eat persimmons every day.

Plant flowers and trees too!

Hey, you dummy.
First, we need a yard.

I am going to leave you
behind here, my lord.

Why must she always speak that way?

I think you are quite amazing.

You allowed the children to draw
their dreams on a white piece of paper.

I want a grape tree.

I'm going to eat grapes every day.

Watch out!

I will get you.

Woo, you'd better go over there.

- Mother.
- Yes.

There's a tap, tap, tap sound.
It's the sound of the wood.

That is called mulberry tree.

Mulberry tree?
Like what they use for paper?

Yes, that's right.

I got it right.

This is mulberry wood
and it's used to make paper.

Feel the wrath of mulberry wood!

Let's eat.

Come on, now.

So, you're that good at studying?

Still, you should know better.

You have no status,
so don't go around showing off.

You should know your place.

Hey. Let's go.

[Min Ji Kyun: Min Chi Hyun's oldest son]

Oh my. You have Joseon's art
resting on your shoulders.

What brings you to this lowly place?

In Geol.

Is this job too much for you?

Let me look at you.

You aged 20 years in the
8 years I hadn't seen you.

You look so dreadful.

Hanyang must not suit you.

It must be because
you left Mount Geumgang.

You are like a goblin.

You appeared after eight years of
never writing, and that's what you say.

So, I hear Legendary Bird
is running well.

Well, I am not running it.
I leave it and it runs on its own.

Teach me your method.

What method?

The method of having things run well
even if you leave things be.

What do you mean?

All the students, night and day

they just read and memorize.

The students here are all children
of good families and high officials.

And?

They have never seen the outside world
nor do they have any interest in it.

That's how the world is these days.

They will take over
their fathers' jobs one day.

They will become the government.

Then their children will
eventually become the government.

At this rate,
what will happen to the country?

I want you to come here and
do what you do to the students.

Are you telling me
to pretend to be a teacher?

You can just spend time with them
if you don't want to teach.

Yes, you could do something fun.

No, no. I don't think so.

Who could I teach?

Don't you know me?
Studying is not my style.

Maybe if I were to go climb
over someone's wall or something.

That is the kind of thing
I want you to teach them.

We are home.

We're home. I'm going to eat you now!

Who are you?

Oh! Hello.

I saw Hyun Ryong
in the yard of the school.

He was not just reciting
the words like a parrot.

He had deep thoughts for a young boy.

Thank you.

He's the grandson of Shin Myung Hwa?

I heard from your son.

You knew my father?

I know him well.

He bragged about his
talented second daughter

who could recite the
Four Books and Three Classics.

Hyun Ryong must take after his mother.

Also, his father.

May I ask why you are here?

We are accepting a new student.

I heard you could not send him
to school due to financial issues.

We may be able to resolve that together.

Can you come to the school
with your son tomorrow?

Wife?

I will think about it.

Have some tea.

What did he say? What, what, what?

He wants you to attend school.

Really? Yeah!

Gosh, with what money would you go?

I heard it costs a lot of money.

No, if they choose you,
the government pays for you.

What about books,
paper, a brush, and ink?

How will you pay for all that?

Do you think that will be all you need?

Dream on.

We had two rice balls
on our picnic today.

We might have to
skip breakfast tomorrow.

Dream on.

Then, do we have to starve tomorrow?

I was in such a good mood.

I walked him all the way
to the village, Wife.

Seeing as how the professor
came all the way here...

I think our Hyun Ryong is very special.

I will not attend.

Hyun Ryong.

I think I have only been
thinking of myself all this time.

It says this in the Works of Mencius.

It is up to us what we draw.

It is all right even if I do not attend.

Wife, is there nothing we can do?

Wife?

I think something is backwards.

In circumstances like this,
shouldn't the wife ask her husband?

"In the forest,
the strength of autumn is strong."

"There is no way to console
this poet's inner heart."

"The river in the distance
is blue like the sky."

"The frostbitten leaves are red,
as if they are burning."

[Saimdang: Light's Diary]

Lee Gyeom and Shin Myung Hwa's
daughter were in love.

The two of them couldn't have
been writing to each other.

He does not meet the criteria.

- Then how about we do this?
- What?

We'll have a contest.

A contest? How could you let this happen?

"I am saddened."
"My helpless citizens."

You must never reveal to anyone
what you just saw.

Mother. Mother, that's not it.

We don't even know if
your husband is dead or alive.

Divorce? How could you be so harsh?

How could you be so selfish?
