EPISODE 9
By any chance,
have you seen this man?
I am not sure.
But he does look familiar.
SEO HAM-DEOK
Is this not Monk Haeham?
It is.
Monk Haeham?
"A monk descends the mountain and enters the market."
"His chanting is no longer heard, but he is heard counting coins."
A monk who got a taste of money?
Are you all right, Your Royal Highness?
I will do anything
to prevent any prince born of the Queen
from becoming the Crown Prince.
The Chief State Councilor…
KILL AT ALL COSTS
…and Mother both attempted to harm Grand Prince Seongnam?
Is it really true?
Yes.
It is.
I talked to Her Royal Highness before I came here.
If it is true,
I will order an investigation and hold them responsible immediately.
Your Majesty.
As his mother,
I also wish to punish them immediately.
However, if this becomes public,
I am worried it will affect the contest.
If they did this during a contest to select the Crown Prince,
they are clearly defying my authority.
Yes, it is utterly unacceptable.
We lost our child before this contest.
And
it almost caused us to lose another child.
But we are up against
the Chief State Councilor and the Queen Dowager.
Are you
willing to punish your mother?
I only told you
because I reckoned you should know the truth.
If this happens again,
I will not merely sit back.
If it does,
whoever they are,
I will punish those who are responsible.
Announce my arrival.
Your Majesty.
Her Royal Highness is unable to see you
because she is feeling unwell.
It will not take long. Open the doors.
Why…
Why on earth did you do that?
It is your grandchild,
of all people.
Are you willing to do anything
to make your favored prince the Crown Prince?
Answer me.
Your Majesty.
With all due respect,
Her Royal Highness had a cuckoo pint
and barely escaped dire harm.
That is enough.
A cuckoo pint?
Is that not a poisonous plant?
Her Majesty the Queen
offered it to her.
She did?
Your Majesty.
Do you truly believe
I committed something so heinous?
How could you suspect your mother
only based on the words of the Queen?
Very well.
I admit
I was never fond of Grand Prince Seongnam.
You are also…
aware of his origins,
are you not?
Even so,
how could you accuse me of attempting to kill my grandchild?
Your Royal Highness!
The worst is over,
but her condition is still critical.
Keep a close eye on her
until she regains her strength.
My Queen.
Is it true that you offered a cuckoo pint
to Mother?
Yes.
I did offer it to her.
However,
it was merely a warning.
No matter how upset you were,
you should not have done that.
You only provided her with a way out.
Mother attempted to kill her grandchild,
while you attempted to kill your mother-in-law.
To whom…
will I be able to tell this?
You may rise now, Your Royal Highness.
You are still no match for me.
I did not…
expect you to stoop so low.
-You must have been very shocked. -Yes.
I almost ordered the Directorate of the State Funeral
to prepare for your funeral.
It would have been a waste
to use the cuckoo pint that you offered as a mere decoration.
I thought I should repay your kindness.
If I had known,
I would have
carefully decocted it myself.
Had you actually come close to death,
you would not have had to put on that lousy act like a clown.
-Your Majesty. -Your dangui,
the ceremonial dress, still suits you better than a shroud.
I suggest you drop the act and rise now.
I would
like you to remain healthy
and watch my son become the Crown Prince.
I should.
However, there is something you should know.
I decide who becomes the Crown Prince.
So wait and see whom I choose.
Do not think
my hands and feet are tied
because of what happened to Grand Prince Seongnam.
How can she be so confident?
There must be something going on.
Consort Tae has been frequenting her quarters lately.
Could it be that the Queen Dowager has Prince Bogeom in mind?
One would assume so, but nothing is certain yet.
She may have changed horses and be supporting Prince Bogeom now
or she may be merely using him to crown Prince Uiseong.
Or perhaps…
she intends to keep both horses.
We must find out her true intention.
Is there a way?
Your Majesty.
Why did you send for me?
Did you succeed in delivering
the bamboo case to Prince Bogeom?
A bamboo case?
What information would I have to deliver to him in a bamboo case?
The information was from Minister Yoon and Deputy Minister Bae, was it not?
You are a pure person.
It is written all over your face.
It is all right.
I will not inform His Majesty or anything.
Besides, the Queen Dowager is especially fond of Prince Bogeom.
I do not believe that she favors him over the other princes.
However, she did mention he had the potential
to become a king as wise as His Majesty with proper education.
Did she go so far as to say that?
Yes, she did.
Consort Tae.
Do you think
Prince Bogeom can really become the Crown Prince?
You must be well aware
that to me, this contest means far more
than the selection of the Crown Prince.
Of course, I am.
Even if Prince Bogeom becomes the Crown Prince,
I will make sure you maintain your position as the Queen.
For me to save you the trouble,
one of the Grand Princes must become the Crown Prince.
Did you hear the Queen Dowager is unwell?
Pardon?
You did not know?
Her Royal Highness is unwell and bedridden at the moment.
Oh, my.
She is? What is the problem?
I am not sure.
Maybe you should go and ask her yourself.
If you do,
she will certainly be very happy.
I will.
Why did you send Consort Tae to Her Royal Highness?
You pay a commission of a fifth of the price?
Why do you pay Park Gyeong-u a commission to sell your ocean quahogs?
Why else? That is the law here on Manwol Island.
The law?
Who created such a law?
Who else?
Master Hyomyeong did.
Do you think he is the King or something?
Even if he sells your products for you,
a commission of a fifth of the price is simply too high.
-Let us go. -Yes, we should.
Good work.
Did you follow me?
I am on my way to look around the trading port.
Here we go. Who wants to buy it?
Five nyang nine jeon.
Does anyone want it?
We are now at five nyang seven jeon.
Hurry up and make up your mind!
Then how about this?
We go down to five nyang two jeon.
Come on. Does anyone want it?
Four nyang five jeon.
Who wants it?
Four nyang, anyone?
The price was over five nyang a moment ago.
Why does the price keep dropping?
Three nyang one jeon.
The price keeps falling. When are you selling them?
I am hungry. I should go and eat.
You want to eat in this situation?
What do you intend to do with all those ocean quahogs?
Wait until the end.
Did you find out who intercepted the subleader?
I am asking around everywhere, but there is no progress yet.
What if that bandit says something he should not?
My lord, someone is here to see you.
What brings you to my humble abode
when you must be occupied with your duties?
I have been keeping a close eye on you recently.
Then it came to my attention that you are searching
the entire capital for someone.
I am not sure what you are talking about.
I am talking about the bandits you sent to the princes headed for Manwol Island.
Bandits? That is absurd.
Why would I have anything to do with something so atrocious?
Is that right?
Bring him.
It was him.
I am certain he was the one who gave an order to my leader.
Once the investigation begins,
you will be held responsible
for attempting to murder Grand Prince Seongnam.
Prince Uiseong is ahead in the contest.
-Why would I do something so reckless? -Right.
It was not you.
All you tried to do was get in his way for a short while
to stall for time.
Then who do you think ordered the murder of Grand Prince Seongnam
and even tried to frame you for it?
As you seem lost, I will tell you who it was.
It was the Queen Dowager.
I wish
I could rip everyone involved to pieces.
But as the contest to select the Crown Prince is still underway,
I will stop here for now.
By the way,
why do you think
the Queen Dowager tried to frame you for it?
On top of that, she has been summoning Consort Tae often lately.
Could it be
that she wishes to make Prince Bogeom the Crown Prince?
At this rate,
I am afraid there will come a time for you and I to work together.
Please wait inside.
Monk Haeham will not be back until this evening.
Come out here, you bastard!
How dare you fool around with a lady asking for a talisman?
Tell me!
Where is my wife?
How is it my fault that you failed to satisfy your wife?
Why you little…
Somebody please get him!
That bastard lured a lady into having her fortune told
only to fool around with her.
You should have kept a closer eye on your wife.
Show up in front of me again, and I will slit your throat.
What an interesting turn of events.
Should I follow him?
No.
-Wait a moment and follow that man. -Yes, Your Highness.
WOLINSEOKBO: ONE OF THE RELIGIOUS TEXTS IN BUDDHISM
Military strategies hidden in a Buddhist text?
Why is there a ground plan of the Eastern Palaces here?
You should lie in bed a little longer.
No, I feel fine now.
My goodness.
I wanted to visit you as soon as I heard you were unwell,
but I wanted to make the porridge myself, so I only came now.
Please eat even just a little while it is warm.
I see you are not only a good mother
but also a devoted daughter-in-law.
You certainly have
what it takes to be a queen.
A queen?
Announce my arrival.
Her Royal Highness is with Consort Tae right now.
Is that so?
Let her know we will come back.
No.
We will wait.
Oh, my.
Brother.
I think this journey made me a real man.
I will never forget
the time I spent with you.
GRAND PRINCE ILYEONG
I cannot believe so many princes have dropped out so early in the contest.
Do not be so harsh.
I am already devastated that Prince Hodong failed.
There are only two left on Manwol Island and two on Mount Gyeryong now.
On what grounds do you say that?
There are six identification plaques left.
I heard Prince Simso has not reached Mount Gyeryong yet.
Did you not know that?
We will reach Hanseong soon, so hang in there.
Are you giving it to me?
Yes. I have been holding it dear,
but I think it will suit you very well.
Oh, my.
This is absolutely lovely!
With the support you are offering us,
now it depends on how well Prince Bogeom does.
It does not solely depend on Prince Bogeom.
One cannot become the Crown Prince without an elaborate plan
and the meticulous execution of it.
Sometimes,
it all comes down to how much information his mother has.
Information?
Yes.
Speaking of which,
would you like to hear an important piece of information?
Oh, my. I did not know you were still here.
I brought over some porridge as the Queen Dowager is unwell.
What makes you sneer like that?
Seeing you carrying the table
reminds me of how you used to
scurry around the palace as a court maid.
Instead of indulging in such a useless thought,
you should have brought something.
It is all about give and take, is it not?
If you will excuse me.
I know how busy the two of you are.
Why did you wait so long to see this old woman?
You could have come back another time.
For there may be no other time.
It has been a while since I last enjoyed your tea,
so I waited.
The water has already become cold.
It is too late to brew tea.
They say there is a time for everything.
However, if there are still tea leaves left in the teapot,
it is not too late to warm up the teacups again, is it?
Bring hot water and new teacups.
Yes, Your Royal Highness.
I must ask you something.
I reckon this contest will determine not only the next Crown Prince
but also the next Queen.
Whom do you have in mind?
I am not sure.
But one thing is for certain.
The Queen must be replaced.
Preferably,
replaced by you.
For that to happen, Prince Uiseong will have to become the Crown Prince.
Rumor has it
that you are supporting Prince Bogeom.
Should I be concerned?
What is wrong with that?
Who is to say Prince Bogeom cannot become the Crown Prince?
Whoever becomes the Crown Prince,
must be decided by me.
So I advise you
to stop thinking for yourself and do as I say.
Then you will surely be rewarded.
Do as you say?
Your Royal Highness.
I, the Chief State Councilor, am not under your command.
Also, the Crown Prince will be decided by the court officials
along with His Majesty.
Have you forgotten who enthroned His Majesty?
Is that why you tried to murder Grand Prince Seongnam and frame me for it?
If you did not have Prince Bogeom in mind, why in the world did you do that?
To have your cake and eat it too?
I see the Queen has been running her mouth.
Your Royal Highness.
It is disgraceful to be greedy at an old age.
Seeing that you halted the tea ceremony,
I think we should take our leave.
Who do you think
should become the Crown Prince, Minister Yoon?
A prince who deeply cares about the people.
In that case, who do you think is such a prince?
You know better than anyone that I serve the Queen Dowager.
So I am sure you know none of the Grand Princes would be my answer.
I reckon many people have been approaching you recently.
At a time like this,
it is important to exercise prudence.
Your Majesty.
What is it that you want to say?
You are the only relative of Queen Yoon
who survived after she was demoted.
So you must understand better than anyone
that it is more important to survive than to remain faithful.
Stay neutral between the Queen Dowager and Chief State Councilor from now on,
and you will be given a chance
when one of the Grand Princes becomes the Crown Prince.
Think about it carefully.
You never know what can happen.
Master!
Master!
The ocean quahogs sold out.
Very well. How much were you paid?
I was paid seven nyang per gwan.
GWAN: UNIT TO MEASURE WEIGHT, ONE GWAN EQUALS 3.75KG
Were you really paid that much?
Yes.
Are you curious?
Would you like to guess what happened?
To sell at a high price,
he must have waited for the price to rise back up.
He was fortunate today, but it seems to be a rather risky method.
It was not luck but a prediction.
Most ocean quahogs on the market today
were of low quality,
while the ones from Manwol Island were of the highest quality.
As those who want high-quality ones would be willing to pay extra,
the price was bound to rise as time went by.
That is correct.
You win this time.
You should do better.
-Let me carry this. -Very well.
By any chance, have you been looking for me?
No. I am looking for a box of counting sticks.
A box of counting sticks?
Carry them carefully.
-Yes, Master. -Yes, Master.
Does it not seem like all the money he made from selling ocean quahogs
and the store are going into his pocket?
Have some faith.
-This is called reasonable doubt. -Master!
Thank you, Master.
Good work.
See? He is still pretending to be blind.
As an exclusive seller of their ocean quahogs,
he demands a commission of a fifth of the price, which is worse than usury.
Yet the islanders feel indebted to him.
I wonder if he shares the profits with the islanders fairly.
We are not here to investigate him.
Our mission is to bring him to the palace.
Goodness.
Is everyone on board?
One person is missing.
We should depart regardless.
We are departing.
Wait!
-Were you waiting for me? -No.
Goodness, my lady.
If it were not for the inspector, you would have missed the ferry.
So you did wait for me.
I did not.
Here.
Were you late because you were buying this box of counting sticks?
I came to Manwol Island unexpectedly, so I ran out of money.
It took a while to sell my hair ribbon to buy this.
I appreciate it.
And I should thank you for waiting for me.
Are you giving me this box of counting sticks?
Yes.
You should never lose it again.
When I grow up, I will teach sanhak at the village school.
SANHAK: THE STUDY OF ARITHMETIC
It sounds absurd, does it not?
It is just wishful thinking.
Hold on to that thought.
One's dream never dies unless one runs away.
Then he is not of royal blood?
It says so here.
How reprehensible.
My goodness.
-Is it really true? -It is absolutely dreadful.
Oh, my.
How could this happen?
-This is unbelievable. -Where is this kingdom going?
He is not his real son?
What made you want to use Consort Tae?
She is a simple person.
Once she becomes consumed with ambition,
she will push forward single-mindedly.
Chadosalin.
CHADOSALIN: TO KILL A PERSON WITH A BORROWED KNIFE
I will not stain my hands with blood this time.
I am a prince, I swear.
I am Prince Simso.
If you really are a prince, show me your identification plaque.
His Majesty took it. What can I do to make you believe me?
I will believe you once you show me the proof!
To the east of Buyongji in the Eastern Palaces is Yeonghwadang.
To the south is Sajeonggibigak and to the north is Eosumun.
Why are you here?
I am starving,
Mother.
I have not had any proper meals.
And I was robbed of all my money and my horse tally.
Go back this instant.
Go back and partake in the contest.
I do not think
I can in this state.
Please let me in.
I am feeling terribly unwell, Mother.
When they find out you really are a prince,
you will be eliminated immediately.
Mother…
You should not have returned to the palace
even if your body had shattered to pieces and you stopped breathing.
Hurry back to where you should be.
I spoke to the boy out of sympathy,
but how could you mistake someone like him for Prince Simso?
My apologies, Your Grace.
I will let it slide this time,
so take that beggar away immediately.
Never come near the palace again.
Let us go.
Pour me one.
Goodness, this is nice.
Try this.
My lord, this girl works in the kitchen.
She is a courtesan if she works at a courtesan house.
Pour me one.
My lord, please stop.
What are you waiting for?
I will pour you one, my lord.
So please let go of her.
Will the proud Cho-wol really pour me a drink?
Cho-wol, stay out of it.
Come on. Do not be like that, madam.
Go ahead and pour me one.
Please let the girl go first.
You may go.
-Get your hand off. -Who are you, you bastard?
-You are better off not knowing. -Why you little…
Do you know who I am?
The Minister of Personnel is my uncle!
Is this about family?
My father is the King, you imbecile.
Please leave.
It will be bad if your mother finds out.
Right.
She will not let it slide if she finds out I am here.
I am actually about to go through something extremely important.
But I still came to you.
I did not know you were so nimble.
Right? I moved faster than I spoke for the first time in my life.
You must leave now.
No. I will not leave before you give me your answer.
Promise me that you will not become a courtesan.
Just the thought of you being with another man makes my blood boil.
Do you like me?
Of course, I do.
As a woman, I mean.
I have never thought about it, but…
I think I do.
I mean, I do.
I like you as a woman.
-I do not trust men. -What are you talking about?
After I came all the way here, do you still not understand how I feel?
You always make me smile.
By the way,
have you always been this beautiful?
Yes.
I missed you.
Did you just say you wish to spend the night here?
Yes, please let me stay here.
She is your guest, so you take care of her.
Pardon?
My goodness.
What is it now?
An unmarried man and woman should not share the same room.
What…
Will you blow out the candle?
I must sleep before the twenty-first hour.
Wait…
Wash your blankets more often. You should know better.
What…
What are you…
Leave my house on the third day before the cockcrow!
No one is taking away your food. Slow down.
Why are you clasping onto that norigae so tightly?
This ornament…
is the first gift
my mother has ever given to me.
She said I should not have
returned to the palace even if my body shattered to pieces
and I stopped breathing.
What do you think you are doing?
He is my child.
So stay out of it, Your Majesty.
You know it is my responsibility to watch over all of the princes.
Why do you not be honest?
Admit you are glad and relieved
that Prince Simso dropped out.
Yes, I am relieved.
Imagine he foolishly persisted despite his poor health.
What do you think would have happened to him?
Stop pretending to be generous!
If he was your son, would you have brought him here?
I would
at least not have sent him away
after seeing how debilitated he was.
He is my everything.
And my world crumbled around me today!
Escort Consort Ko to her quarters.
You are a disgrace to me and my family.
It would have been better if you had died.
I regret…
giving birth to you.
You useless imbecile!
What is this?
What brings you here this early in the morning?
I am here to reveal the ugly truth behind Grand Prince Gyeseong.
Grand Prince Gyeseong is a woman in the shell of a man.
He has been putting on female clothes and makeup in a secret chamber,
bringing disgrace to the royal court.
But the Queen has been covering it up.
And the Queen Dowager knows all about it.
Her Royal Highness knows about it?
Yes.
A weakness of a Grand Prince is a weakness of his mother, the Queen.
It will prove useful in your becoming the Queen.
Even if something goes wrong,
the Queen Dowager will have your back.
I will give this to you once you grant me a favor.
What is it you want?
I wish to see the Queen
weep tears of blood.
Has Prince Simso been served breakfast?
Yes, Your Majesty.
But seeing that the table has not been returned, he must still be in bed.
He was in the cold when he was already tired from his journey.
He must be fatigued.
We should go back, Your Majesty.
No.
I need to see him for myself. Open the doors.
-No! -Your Highness…
-Prince Simso! -No!
-No! -Prince Simso!
-Prince Simso! -Send for help!
No, Prince Simso!
We need a physician!
We need a physician! This is an emergency!
We need a physician!
Hurry.
-Lay him down here. -His pulse is gone. Hurry.
-No time to lose. -Nurse Kim, bring water.
Where is everyone?
Where is Prince Simso?
I am asking where Prince Simso is.
Your Majesty. Fortunately, his pulse returned.
You do not have to worry.
Listen, everyone.
If rumors about this spread in the palace,
all of you will receive punishment.
Prince Simso received treatment
for the fatigue from his journey.
He will stay in my quarters for the time being, so you may leave now.
I will send Court Lady Shin
when he wakes up.
You may go back.
I…
I am his mother.
I will…
stay by his side.
If he finds out you are aware of what he did today,
he will not be able to bear it.
You are still full of yourself.
Think as you wish.
But I hope you can continue
to be a mother who scolds their child
when they do something wrong.
I also hope Prince Simso will be able to face you
even after being scolded by you.
Do you know what he was clasping onto until the end?
I heard you gave it to him.
Seeing that you ran here without even wearing your shoes,
you must have been worried about him.
Do not be too hard on yourself.
You did make a grave mistake,
but you already received the heaviest punishment.
You are awake.
Did you sleep well?
Prince Simso.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Have you ever had a drink?
Pardon?
A drink?
No, I have never.
Then let me teach you.
Would you like to see something interesting?
What is this?
It is called a gyeyeongbae.
When the cup is less than seven-tenths full,
it holds the liquid perfectly.
But when it is filled beyond that,
it drains all the liquid
until it becomes empty.
No one is perfect.
Maybe everyone
has holes like this gyeyeongbae.
Even I, the Queen, am full of those holes.
But as long as you are content,
you can say you are living a good life even if it is not full.
However,
I am ashamed that I always fail to overcome my limits.
Did you also want to become the Crown Prince?
No.
Just the thought of becoming one gives me a headache.
In that case,
you did not fail to become the Crown Prince
but chose not to.
So why should you be ashamed?
To force yourself to do something you do not want. That is shameful.
People fear their drink spilling out of a gyeyeongbae,
but if you ask me,
I like that it has these holes.
It knows when to empty itself
and drains whatever is unnecessary.
Likewise, when you want to do something, you should give it a try.
When you are unhappy, you should resist.
And be stubborn sometimes.
Give yourself room to breathe.
Did you know?
You learned how to read before any other prince.
Is that true?
That made your mother extremely proud of you.
But it also made her have high expectations for you.
She seemed truly happy
when you used to read books aloud to her.
She really did.
Go on.
PRINCE SIMSO
Will the two of them
be all right?
Even between parent and child,
it takes time for wounds to heal.
But between parent and child,
some things are unspoken
but still understood.
Monk Haeham,
I humbly request an audience.
My goodness.
How can I help you?
Was your name Seo Ham-deok before you became a monk?
Who are you?
"Hear, Seo Ham-deok."
"You are hereby appointed as the head of the Royal Commandery Division."
"Accept the edict immediately, take the palanquin,
and come to the palace."
Wait.
How can a monk become the head of the Royal Commandery Division?
You have the wrong person.
Regardless of the royal command,
I will be taking you to the palace in a different manner.
Were you the rat that went through my chamber last night?
Why are military strategies hidden in a Buddhist text?
And why is this ground plan behind the wallpaper?
You will have to explain that to me first.
My goodness.
You little…
Arrest Monk Haeham for murder.
Murder? What are you talking about?
What is going on?
He is suspected of murdering Choi Gil-myeong last night.
-What… -Take him away.
-Yes, Chief. -Choi Gil-myeong?
Who is that? Murder who?
Murder?
Did you see that man fighting with Choi Gil-myeong?
They made a scene at the market yesterday.
He held a knife to Choi's neck and said,
-"Show up in front of me again, -Show up in front of me again,
-and I will slit your throat." -and I will slit your throat.
-My goodness. -Oh, no.
-How dreadful. -Goodness.
Goodness gracious.
Is this yours?
Is that not Choi?
HAEHAM
It is, but I did not kill him.
Yes, you did.
When the deceased caught you having an affair with his wife,
you had a fight with him to cover it up.
In the end, you murdered him.
Halt!
Magistrate.
A murderer who leaves a knife with his name on it at the scene.
Is that not strange?
The statement of the suspect does make sense to me.
I suggest you find someone who can prove his tracks
and reconsider the matter.
Yes, Lord Inspector.
My goodness.
Thank you.
Without you, I would have ended up being framed for murder.
Unfortunately, you will still not be able to avoid the death penalty.
You saw how solid the evidence and witness are yourself.
It was not me.
I know. It was not you.
After the brawl with Choi Gil-myeong yesterday,
you headed straight to a tavern and drank until the nineteenth hour.
And you returned to Dongeun Temple.
Yes, that is correct.
You were asleep in your chamber
when Choi Gil-myeong was murdered.
You seem to speak
as if you saw everything.
Yes.
You fell into my trap.
Who are you, you bastard?
Accept this royal edict and follow me to the palace,
and I will clear your name.
Whether you leave this place alive or dead
is up to you.
The villagers sometimes come here to pray.
But I feel rather reluctant to go in,
so I will stay out here.
This is a map that shows the location of the armory.
Seo Ham-deok is plotting treason.
Your Grace.
The much-awaited event
will take place soon.
I will return to the palace soon.
So please wait a little longer.
Physician Kwon was in charge of treating Consort Hwang?
Yes, Your Majesty.
He treated her stomach ulcer a few years ago.
The two of them knew each other?
There is more, Your Majesty.
It was on her recommendation that he took charge of the Crown Prince.
She recommended him?
UNDER THE QUEEN'S UMBRELLA
Subtitle translation by: Min-jin Kim
Look into the connection between the Chief State Councilor and Physician Kwon.
Now that I found out there is a nobleman who defrauds the people,
I must right this wrong no matter what.
I wish to bring Physician Kwon back to the palace.
May I ask why you wish to bring him back to the palace?
Leave this island now.
Right now!
This is a great chance
to drag the Queen down along with Grand Prince Gyeseong.
You must hurry.
Grand Prince Gyeseong's life is in danger.
Your Majesty, what kind of trick are you playing?
