Episode 8

I will give you one more chance.

Work for me.

If you promise me your loyalty, I can give you wealth.

Who would want that kind of dirty wealth?

I don't need anything other than your life.

Too bad.

What are you waiting for? Carry out the execution.

What are you waiting for? Carry out the execution!

Yes, sir.

Stop!

Who are you?

I'm Admiral Lee Soon Shin from the Navy.

What brings you here?

I heard you had my man captive here, so I hurried over.

What?

Your man?

Who is that?

Have you been well, Kang Chi? I came to get you.

Although I brought him in as an abandoned child, he's like a son to me.

He's steadfast and responsible. Most of all, he's got a good heart.

Please take him in as your man.

But, what if he's dangerous like Gon said?

If he kills innocent people?

Then...

I'll kill that child myself.

What's going on?

Look here, Admiral.

Did you say you'll take back this murderer?

Who are you to ask me such a question?

He was an assistant minister in Han Yang, and just recently retired.

- This is Lord Jo Gwan Woong. - Is that so?

But, why are you here investigating when you are already retired?

You see...

I'm here as a witness.

I personally witnessed Choi Kang Chi here murdering the owner of Hundred Year Inn.

Stop the nonsense!

You're the one who killed Lord Park!

You ungrateful kid! You repay his kindness with evil.

And now, you're trying to frame me for the murder?

Did you just say murder?

It's definitely a murder.

I saw it with my own two eyes.

I'll ask again.

Was the owner of that inn an innocent man?

No, we found him funding the traitors. He's been convicted.

Then, why did you capture Choi Kang Chi as a murderer?

If he killed a traitor, that's not murder. He should be rewarded.

It's right that he should be rewarded.

How can you execute such a wrongful punishment?

You see...

Even if he was a traitor, Lord Park was of high esteem here.

We thought it may bring confusion to the citizens.

You're worried about the citizen's confusion when dealing with a traitor?

Is there something you're trying to cover up by using him as a scapegoat?

No, of course not!

Or, did you make an innocent man into a traitor?

You should watch what you say!

This is about someone's life!

I have no choice, but to thoroughly see what's right and wrong.

I'll ask again.

Are you sure Park Moo Sol was a traitor?

If so, Choi Kang Chi is not a murderer. He should be rewarded instead.

If Choi Kang Chi is indeed guilty of murder, then Park Moo Sol must've been an innocent man.

Which is it?

Which is it?

He's got him. No need to watch anymore.

Are you okay now?

What do we do? There's nothing wrong with what he said.

We have no other choice but to let Kang Chi go.

- It was seven men! - What?

Seven of my men disappeared without a trace.

You want to let the admiral have that man?

How will you deal with the aftermath?

What will you do if Choi Kang Chi comes to take your life tonight?

My life?

Then, how about if we ask the general to write up a commitment letter?

What?

We'll let Kang Chi go, but if anything happens, the general will be responsible.

If we get a commitment letter like that...

Come out. They ordered for you to be freed.

- You'll make me into a murderer? - I'm doing this to save you.

Don't you think this is too much?

It's none other than Lord Park Moo Sol.

He was my savior, my father, and my teacher.

You want me to live the rest of my life as someone who murdered him?

That's saving me?

I'd rather kill everyone here, and die myself.

- You think death is so easy? - It'll be easier than holding on to this life.

It just takes one moment to die.

Why do you mistreat your life like that?

Because my life is meaningless to me now.

Right now...

I am no longer a human being.

I see.

Fine.

Take this.

I will give you a day's time. Think of today as your last day.

Give one coin to each of the three men that you would like to say good-bye to.

What?

Then, come back to see me at the naval base before 3 p.m.

If you do, I won't interfere with anything else you do.

Why should I listen to you?

Park Moo Sol asked me to take care of you.

And it's an order from someone who saved you from death.

It's just for today.

Keep the promise you made man to man.

What's going on? How can they let a murderer go?

What about me when I'm the one who found him?

Get him!

- Will it be okay? - That's why we asked for it.

The Admiral's commitment letter.

A commitment letter?

What if we let that kid go, and something happens to me or the police chief?

Just in case, we want a commitment from you to take full responsibility.

That way, we'll be able to relax.

Don't you agree?

Of course, we will hold on to the commitment letter here.

It's just in case.

Just in case, Choi Kang Chi causes harm, he will be executed.

You'll have to take responsibility, and give up your title as Admiral.

If I do, you'll let Choi Kang Chi go?

You'll make the promise?

Let Choi Kang Chi go now.

Why did you make such a rash decision?

Was I being rash?

He's a very unstable kid.

He's capable of harming Jo Gwan Woong right now.

The heavens decide on human fate.

Humans just try their best at what they believe to be right.

I just wait for the heavens to be moved by my efforts.

We have some time, would you like to shoot some arrows with me?

What could it be?

The Admiral is so tempted by him that he's willing to give his own life.

There must be something special about him.

I'm so curious to find out what that is.

Do you think he will come here?

I'm sure he will.

Whatever he does, just watch him for now.

Until I give orders, don't touch him.

But, he's a dangerous being.

It's our chance to get both the Admiral and Choi Kang Chi.

If he's that worthy, we will have to risk some danger.

If we don't stop the Admiral now, he'll become a big opposition in the future.

And if Choi Kang Chi can't become my man, we'll have to kill him.

What about what I asked you to prepare?

Don't worry. I've hypnotized him.

Listen carefully to what I say.

The one that killed your father is Choi Kang Chi.

As soon as you see Choi Kang Chi, kill him.

Tae Seo!

Chung Jo.

No! Tae Seo!

Tae Seo!

My Lady!

Mother.

Mother.

This is all because of Choi Kang Chi.

This is all because of Choi Kang Chi.

Kill him.

Choi Kang Chi.

Choi Kang Chi!

Choi Kang Chi!

What are you doing?

- Are you following me? - No.

I'm not following you, just watching you.

Watching me? Why?

You don't know? Just in case you do something foolish to Jo Gwan Woong.

If I do something foolish, you think you can stop me?

Why? You don't think I can?

Then stop me.

Look.

This is different from what you promised the Admiral.

Man to man. You said you would keep the promise.

- Promises are made between people. - Of course.

- Promises are made between people. - But what do I do?

I'm no longer human.

- What? - Oh, right...

My mother was human, so I guess I'm half human.

What's wrong with you?

What if someone hears?

So, be careful.

I don't even know when the monster in me will come out to get you.

You ungrateful kid!

You repaid his kindness with evil. You harmed our Lord Park Moo Sol.

How dare you walk around here? Leave the village now!

Stop! It's all a misunderstanding.

Are you on his side? Then, you must be wretched, too.

Stop this!

Where do you think you're going?

Don't get hurt. It's just a misunderstanding.

You can undo the misunderstanding. And Lord Park's innocence will be proven...

And if his innocence is not proven...

I'll have to live my whole life feeling like this.

Condemned the rest of my life for murdering Lord Park.

You know?

Just go.

She's at the Choon Hwa Gwan.

Lady Chung Jo.

I'm sure she's the one you want to see the most.

Today, we will teach you about drinking.

Pour the liquor into the bowl.

What are you doing? As a gisaeng, you must know how to pour liquor.

Hurry, and pour the liquor.

Now, drink that liquor.

Head Mistress will teach you about the gisaeng tradition.

But, nobody will teach you how to drink.

So, I am doing this for you. Listen carefully.

You have to drink all at once without missing a drop.

When you are done drinking, you cannot frown.

And you can't eat any food like a lowly girl.

Now, drink up.

Just like that.

Good, just like that.

Be quiet!

One girl hasn't drank at all.

Drink.

I won't drink.

- What? - I don't think this game is fun at all.

Game? I told you this is a lesson!

Are you scared it'll taste harsh?

- Girls. - Yes.

She must be fearful of the taste.

You'll have to help her.

Okay.

Now, the liquor will taste watered down.

Drink it.

Look, what do you think you are doing?

I'm giving you a lesson on drinking.

If you're dressed like a gisaeng, you must learn the gisaeng ways.

Acting all haughty and mighty. Even if you act all noble...

you're still a gisaeng who sells liquor and her body.

Why?

You don't like drinking?

Then, should I teach you how to strip down in front of a man?

Should I see what a noble girl looks like?

How dare she! You want to die?

Bitch!

- Who started it? - It doesn't matter.

This wretched girl threw liquor at Wol San's face.

Liquor?

We were bored, so we were sharing some liquor.

I felt bad for the new girls, so I just wanted them to enjoy.

Right. That's all Wol San wanted.

- Is that true? - Of course, it's true.

We are all witnesses here.

- Isn't that so? - Of course.

Head Maid, bring the spanking stick.

Bare your legs.

Hurry, and do it.

Stand up straight.

Who are you?

I asked who you are.

That kid!

Look!

Who are you?

Let's go.

Stop right there.

Who are you?

Who are you to come here in the middle of the day?

You better let her go.

She doesn't belong here. So, I'll take her.

Kang Chi.

Stop!

Don't take another step.

If you take a step out of here with that child...

you and Chung Jo both will be harmed.

As soon as we catch you, you'll get beaten to death.

Don't worry, Chung Jo.

I have no problem taking you out of here.

Even if you get lucky, and escape...

you'll just have to live as fugitives.

You'll have to live hidden away as criminals.

Put to shame like lowly beings.

You'll barely be able to sustain your life eating plants.

It's not too late. Let go of that girl, and leave from here.

- Let go of that hand! - I can't!

I'll never let it go.

If anyone so much as touches me, I'll kill you all.

Don't worry, Chung Jo.

I will no longer let you stay here by yourself.

Trust me.

Chung Jo.

Go away.

- What? - Go away.

I'm here for you. I want to take you from here.

Before you do that, prove my father's innocence.

Let the world know of Father's innocence, and come back to take me.

Before then, I won't take a step.

- Chung Jo. - Go.

Please, go.

You really want to take that child from here?

If so, think about what you need to do first.

You must not hesitate.

If you see him doing anything strange, you must kill him at once.

Father.

If you hesitate, the Admiral may be put in danger.

You understand?

If she can't do it, I'll do it. Let me do it.

No.

I will do it.

I will take care of it.

Don't make any mistakes.

Not only the general, but his entire force is at stake here.

Do you understand?

Yes, Father.

Lady Yeo Wool has lost sight of Kang Chi.

- Is he coming this way? - Yes.

Damn.

Kang Chi!

Do you realize what you just did?

I do. I did it knowing full well.

Stop.

If I don't stop him now, the Admiral will be harmed.

Nothing will happen. He promised the Admiral that he won't do anything today.

And that's why he went in there looking angry like that?

Just trust me, and this once...

can't you believe in his promise?

No, Gon?

Ma Reum!

Ma Reum!

Why are you so out of breath? Did you see a ghost or something?

He's here. He finally came.

Kang Chi just broke off the broom, and went to Jo Gwan Woong.

He went into his room.

What brings you here?

You asked me if I would work for you, right?

I'm here to answer you again.

I will come back to take back the Hundred Year Inn.

I will take your life then as well.

This is my answer.

Choi Kang Chi.

You!

Kang Chi.

I'll come back with Tae Seo and Chung Jo.

Until then, please take care of the Hundred Year Inn.

I will. Of course, I will.

Kang Chi.

Kang Chi!

Bullseye!

Bullseye!

You think he will come?

If I'm correct, he'll keep his promise.

Even if he comes, what will you do?

That depends on that child's answer.

His answer?

Sir.

There's someone here from the police.

He brought a message claiming Choi Kang Chi invaded the Hundred Year Inn.

Did you look carefully at what Choi Kang Chi has done?

Are you sure Choi Kang Chi did this?

Who else could do this?

Who else saw him?

What?

Are you doubting me?

I just want to be certain.

My guards, the servants, and myself all witnessed Choi Kang Chi.

- Is that enough? - Then, can I meet with the servants?

Is there anyone here who witnessed Choi Kang Chi using violence here?

If you witnessed it, I need three people to step forward.

What are you doing?

You all saw Choi Kang Chi forcing himself in and using violence.

Confess to what you saw!

I'm sorry.

I don't know what you are talking about.

What?

Since you arrived here, I've never seen Kang Chi here.

- I didn't see him, either. - Me, neither.

I didn't see anything, either.

If you want me to forfeit my position, you'll have to provide more evidence.

You'll have to try harder.

Then...

- Is your name Choi Ma Reum? - Yes, sir.

Roll him up with the mat, and beat him.

Then put him in prison, and starve him for five days.

And give the same punishment to these two over here.

- Take them! - Yes, sir!

My Lord, I really didn't see anything!

Please calm down. We still have a hidden hand.

You're sure the hypnosis will work?

I'm sure. He will kill Choi Kang Chi.

Choi Kang Chi.

Kill him.

You've arrived?

So, did you do the homework I gave you?

Did you give the three coins to the people you wanted to say your last good bye to?

What does this mean?

I have to keep living.

I will say my last good bye at a later date.

What made you change your mind?

First, I want to prove Lord Park's innocence.

Second, I want to take back the inn, and return it to Tae Seo and Chung Jo.

- And lastly, my third reason... - Yes, the third reason.

If it's possible, I want to become human.

You want to become human?

Yes, I want to become human.

Right now, I'm half man, half mythical being.

I don't know when I will turn into a mythical being and lose myself.

I can't call myself a human being.

I've seen numerous people born as humans, but act less than animals.

What makes you human is not your birth, but what you hold dear in your heart.

But, I don't want to be in this unstable situation.

Like this, I can't go back to the inn or to the family members there.

Then, you know of a way to become human?

Yes, I heard there is a way.

What is that way?

The Gu Family Book.

Gu Family Book?

- Gu Family Book? - Yeah, Gu Family Book.

Your father wanted to obtain that, too, and he prayed for 100 days.

But in the end, he didn't have any luck.

How can I obtain that Gu Family Book?

Tell me.

I can't tell you right now.

Why not?

Even your father, who spent 1000 years cultivating his spirituality, failed.

You think you can obtain that?

- There's no way. - What's wrong with me?

Look at you. You are so easy to anger.

And you can't control your temper, causing all kinds of trouble.

How can you pray for 100 days with patience?

It's not possible.

I don't want to lose you, too.

Forget about the Gu Family Book.

What do I need to do for you to help me find that Gu Family Book?

Build up your mental power so that you can remain human without the bracelet.

But, it took your father a few hundred years to accomplish that.

- It will be hard during my life time. - I'll do it.

I will do it for sure.

Don't let any woman close to you.

Don't let her have your heart. Don't be moved by any affection.

But, you already have a woman close to you that you can't avoid.

- It will be hard. - You are going to keep this up?

- You want to see me die? - You won't die.

As long as you don't try to become human...

you'll live an eternal life. Do you understand?

I don't need eternal life.

Just help me to become human.

Please help me to find the Gu Family Book.

I'm hoping you will take in this child.

To our place?

Please, Master.

Help me to learn patience, self-control...

and the mental power to remain human without the bracelet.

I will never forget your kindness.

Please take me in!

He's decided to side with us. Isn't that a good thing?

Please, take him in as your man.

Good.

We could have lost the Admiral.

Gon, you have the tendency to underestimate the Admiral.

You still don't know?

When I shot that arrow...

What I trusted in was not Choi Kang Chi, it was the Admiral.

If he didn't have confidence in the promise he made

he wouldn't have let Choi Kang Chi go alone in the first place.

I trusted that he wouldn't have put his position on line like that.

Take this as an opportunity to trust in people.

I'm curious about something.

What is it?

If I had used up all three coins that you gave me...

what were you planning to do?

If I had wanted to kill Jo Gwan Woong and die myself?

Do you want an honest answer?

Yes.

I would have killed you.

Someone who doesn't hold his life dear, can't take anything else as precious.

I can't have any hope in someone like that.

Your jokes sound so sincere.

Hey, Choi Kang Chi! We've got a long way to go.

Let's go!

- I'll come back to see you. - Come whenever.

You're always welcome here.

What is this?

That man left it for you early this morning.

That man that came to see you yesterday.

He said he put some ointment inside. To put it where you got hit.

So...

I'll have to see you everyday now?

Why? You're that happy?

No way.

Don't worry.

As soon as I reach my goal, I will leave.

Your goal? What goal?

No need for kids to know.

What? Kid?

Kid?

Kang Chi.

I pray that your path will lead to happiness, not sorrow.

You too, Lady Yeo Wool.

What are you doing?

You, bitch!

My name is Chung Jo. I'm not a bitch.

It's Park Chung Jo.

From now on, call me by my name, Wol San.

What are you doing?

Welcome back!

- Have you all been well? - Yes, Master!

We have a new family member today.

- Introduce yourself. - What? Introduce myself?

You don't know what that means?

Hello.

I'm not used to this.

Do it right.

I will. I am.

I'm Choi Kang Chi, the son of Choi Ma Reum from the Hundred Year Inn.

Nice to meet you.

He says it's nice to meet you.

If a new member introduces himself, you should accept it.

Our apologies!

Sir Dam, you must have some power here.

Something like that.

We are done here, you may go your way.

Yes, sir!

This place is bigger than I thought.

Father spent a lot of energy and effort building up this place.

If it wasn't for the Admiral, you wouldn't have been accepted here.

I see.

Tae Seo!

If I can't have it, I'll steal it.

If I can't steal it, I'll destroy it.

That's my way.

Tae Seo.

Die.

Die!
