Original subtitles

"Lee Jae-ha is an enemy of our people.

Assassinate on sight."

I'll do well.

In my eyes, Hang Ah, you're a woman.

A charming and lovely woman.

Do you like me that much?

Hey, you like Jang Dong-gun, right?

It's Brad Pitt.

She says it's Brad Pitt.

She has such high standard for men.

Comrade, what do you take me for?

Communist...

You were shocked back then, right?

I'm talking about the gun.

My mind was in a swirl too.

I love Kim Hang Ah.

He fooled me many times during the training period too.

It's all a lie that he likes me.

I won't be fooled anymore.

-Have you been dumped before? -Pardon? Yes.

Someone keeps saying she likes you, and you reject her.

You finally open up, and right at that moment, she dumps you.

Have you experienced that?

She doesn't like you?

No, I'm planning on doing that.

I'm here to tell you Ms. Kim's message.

"I have no feelings for you,

Comrade Lee.

I refuse to be engaged.

I wish to spend the rest of the days without seeing you.

Please note on that."

That's all.

Go and appease her.

There's a press conference on the last day.

If she maintains this attitude...

Appease her.

And tell her to say you guys are breaking up because of diplomatic issues

at the press conference.

Yes, that should be the conclusion.

But

the process is more important to me.

For someone who has made me like this,

what method should I use to bring about the conclusion?

I'm a royal in South Korea.

Why would I be made fun of by a North Korea woman?

Look at how I was humiliated.

Not only my pride is hurt,

but South Korea's reputation as well.

And you want me

to beg such a person for cooperation?

I can't do that.

This has already exceeded my limit!

Now,

this isn't a problem that can be solved by just dumping her.

I want her to be confused.

For the rest of her life, I want her to think that I love her.

So that she can't marry anyone else.

I'll make her die alone in sadness and depression.

And the moment she dies, I'll tell her.

"I never loved you."

Why? Is it too cruel?

Look at what she did to me.

Okay, it's all good.

But you have to get her to fall in love with you first.

She says she completely has no feelings for you.

That's right, that's a problem.

There are only three days left.

Call Eun Shi-gyeong.

-Yes, Your Highness. -Tell me.

How did you seduce Kim Hang Ah?

I really didn't seduce--

Are you going to play innocent until the end?

Just wait until I get back to Seoul. You're going to be dead!

You should give it another go for the judicial exam.

Cleaning up the Prince's mess doesn't suit you.

You'll have to deal with all kinds of mess.

I know you can't stand them.

Give it another try.

You passed the preliminary.

You don't like me being a soldier?

But this suits me better.

I realized whilst I was studying for the exam.

I'm not as smart as you are.

Still, I won't

do anything shameful.

Just as you said.

I should go pick up the Princess.

-I'll settle the bill. -Just leave it.

I earn money too, Dad.

She'll arrive at the airport in 20 minutes.

We're going to pick up the Princess,

- but isn't this too small a group? -Yes.

What?

Okay.

Turn the car around, the Princess went to someplace else.

-What? -She took a different flight

without letting her maids know.

It's been some time since she arrived at Incheon Airport.

Track her mobile phone to see where she is.

Okay.

-Are you sure she's here? -They've confirmed it via GPS,

so it should be correct.

STAFF ONLY

Call the manager over.

You know what she looks like?

-Yes. -Let's start looking for her.

Yes.

Hello! We're Shiny Guerrilla Band.

-Lee Jae-shin! -Lee Jae-shin!

-What? -Lee Jae-shin!

You look like the Princess.

The Princess? That brat only knows how to be proud.

Go check.

Understood.

What is this?

The manager can't be found.

They said he was at some hall.

This place is no joke.

All thugs in the country have gathered here.

Just now...

Some woman even insulted the Princess in front of everyone.

Are you sure this is the location?

What? You discovered the latest location?

-Where is she? -Here.

Where did you get this? Tell me.

Let go of me first!

You people seriously...

My status changes depending on how I'm dressed?

Keep your hand up.

I haven't finished accepting your respect.

EUN SHI-GYEONG

You're the captain of the second company of the Royal Guards?

"Eun Shi-gyeong."

I told you not to send anyone here.

But the commander...

So his orders are more important than mine?

Then, why don't you go and protect your superior?

I said I'd take the taxi back.

Why did you make a decision on your own?

Without permission, you tracked me down via my phone.

Neither do you understand humor.

You're so stiff, how do you live?

Where did you get your bad habit of judging people by their appearances?

Your sense of superiority

makes people criticize the Royal Family, do you know that?

But what you did wasn't so dignified either.

Dignified?

You think dressing up with fancy clothes makes me dignified?

"Please come in. Welcome."

Is that considered dignity?

I'm referring to the very least dignity.

This person is seriously boring.

Wait here.

I'm going to talk with my friends for a long time.

I haven't accepted your respect yet.

Why am I alone?

Comrade Lee Jae-ha...

Where's the Prince?

He said he'd have a meal alone in his room,

not to disturb your breakfast.

It looks like the Prince still has some wits.

That's good. You can enjoy eating at ease now.

Don't you want to eat too?

Of course, I'm going to eat.

Your Highness. I hope the Prince doesn't marry that North Korean woman.

Please stop him.

The Prince is handsome.

Please tell him to be strong.

North Korea, my foot.

We've met after a year, but you're being so stingy towards your sister.

What can I do with 10,000 won?

If you don't want it, then give it back.

Why did you perform in Hongdae as soon as you arrived?

If Mom finds out--

Do you know what worries her the most at the moment?

A North Korean woman is going to become her second daughter-in-law.

I feel like it's going to be very interesting.

What is she like?

Can she sing well?

If we can do a duet together, it'll be good.

John Mayer of Club M will arrive in the country today.

He's entering the country through Seoul Airport.

He wants to meet with Your Majesty. What do you plan to do?

What poor airport facilities.

Is the entry procedure done?

Let's go.

Who is he?

I'm Chief Secretary Eun Kyu-tae of the Royal House.

There was no need for you to come all the way here.

His Majesty is well, right?

His Majesty means South Korea itself.

His yearly schedule is already full.

He isn't someone

a mere CEO can meet without a prior request

just because he wants to.

What is this?

In addition, Club M's John Mayer

is a possible threat and harm to South Korea,

its national interests and orders.

According to Article 11 Clause 3 of the Immigration Management Act,

until March next year,

you're forbidden from entering South Korea.

Please leave.

Just what is this?

It looks like the Royal House

really wants to experience my magic.

I understand.

Comrade Yeom Dong-ha, it's been a while.

Have you been well?

Yes, thanks to you.

I'm happy to see you.

-The Prince... -No.

I didn't call you to ask you that,

so please don't misunderstand.

I see.

Still, let me ask you while we're at it.

Is Comrade Lee doing well?

No, he seems to be shocked.

He thinks it's best not to show himself up

since you hate him that much.

No, he doesn't have to--

You will see him at the press conference before you leave.

Excuse me.

He sure sleeps early.

He couldn't have turned off the lights

to watch porn by himself, right?

A special show on Girls' Generation is being aired now.

Aren't you watching it?

Well...

I don't do that anymore.

It's getting late.

You'll walk a little more, right?

If you'll excuse me.

She's heading towards A3.

Estimated time of arrival is three minutes. Begin in a minute.

Are you out for a walk?

You may look around.

What song was that?

What I just played?

"Ave Maria."

What?

I don't think so.

It is "Ave Maria."

You wouldn't know because you're from North Korea.

Do you think we only listen to traditional songs?

We listen to classical music too.

I even played the organ when I was young.

Although I gave up because I wasn't good at it.

In short, the song you just played

isn't "Ave Maria." I'm sure.

I played the accompaniment.

The prelude from one of Bach's songs.

The composer named Gounod added a melody to the song later.

This is Gounod's "Ave Maria."

Come, play the melody to see if I'm right.

Start by playing the note "Mi" a little later.

Wait until this ends.

One, two, three.

It fits.

Bach and Gounod

were born in different countries.

They lived in different time periods.

But their music harmonizes well.

It's really amazing.

It's late.

You should go to sleep.

GOUNOD, "AVE MARIA"

DAD

It seems to be a success.

The royal maids found her in a daze during breakfast.

She's a little off.

Very good.

The next song is this one.

"Hopeless Love."

Wouldn't it be too old-fashioned?

What do I want to do with Kim Hang Ah again?

Dump her.

You'll make her fall in love with you until the day she dies.

Exactly. So what kind of romance should I use?

It has to be intense.

A dramatic fantasy is needed.

Like keeping a dying lover by your side.

Or like you can't be together

when you want each other so much.

The situation fits perfectly too.

South.

North.

But what if

she really won't let you go?

That definitely won't happen.

Why? Because she is a woman.

The fantasy must be complete no matter what.

If she doesn't,

it won't be a fantasy anymore.

Let's start.

MY HANG AH

Congratulations, Your Highness.

I heard she ran outside to you.

The royal maids are going crazy.

They said it was like a movie.

Okay, what are you going to do next?

Are you going to dump her or play around a little more?

Wouldn't that be too cruel?

You know her well, right?

She never dated anyone.

But this...

Then, go with the deluding without the final remark.

"I never loved you."

Hey, that is a bit awkward.

She's pitiful.

-Being used by the South and North Korea. -So you'll marry her?

I'm still so young.

Besides, she was even trained to kill me.

Why would I live with her?

Exactly my point.

Seriously. What should I do?

Without marrying her, can't I just

make her my secret girlfriend?

Your Highness,

do you have feelings for her?

Of course not.

Right.

I shouldn't care so much.

Let's start.

You're here?

Did something happen?

Since we're parting ways,

let's spend the last period of time together.

During the press conference, let's say it together.

That we're...

canceling the engagement.

I'll do it.

Okay.

-Let's-- -No.

I'll get engaged.

Hey.

I mean, Ms. Kim.

-Like I said yesterday, we-- -We

like each other.

Although the situation is bad,

our feelings for each other are the same.

What is there to be afraid of?

But those feelings...

People can't live only for feelings.

No, we can do it.

Where there's a will, there's a way.

There's nothing that can't be done.

Hang Ah.

Brace yourself.

No matter what difficulties there are, we can prevail.

-Hey... -Don't worry about me.

As long as I am together with you,

-I'll be happy even in prison. -No, I hate it!

Why would I marry you?

Do you have no wits?

This was all an act.

I put up an act to end things in good terms.

And you...

I tried to end things nicely.

I was going to present you a decent love

since you've never dated anyone.

So why would you ruin it?

You've got to have a limit to being naive.

Okay, let's stop it all.

Let's dump each other.

Let's ruin the relationship between South and North Korea.

Are you saying

-it was all an act? -Right.

Every single thing was an act.

-The piano as well? -The hug yesterday was quite intense.

I never told you to fall for it.

You made your inexperience too obvious.

How easy.

Where did Hang Ah go?

She is at the back.

Do want me to get her?

No, no need.

She's making me feel bad now.

Why did she have to be that slow-witted?

What a fool.

Everything has been decided.

I'll start when the host asks who'll go first.

You don't need to say anything.

Just give an awkward smile.

The spokesperson will say everything on our behalf.

That we like each other,

but are unable to overcome the wall between us.

If they say so,

it can't be helped.

Remind North Korea politely.

I understand.

They aren't getting engaged,

but it still holds a great significance between North and South Korea.

You despise me now, don't you?

Just express your feelings

through an awkward smile.

Then, let's hear their remarks.

Who will speak first?

I want to speak first.

I...

love the Prince of South Korea,

Lee Jae-ha.

I'll accept the engagement.

-Is it true? -Are you really in love with him?

-How do you feel? -Can you share with us your feelings?

-What's your opinion? -Please say a word.

MINISTER OF UNIFICATION KIM NAM IL

Quickly connect me to the Royal House.

Reporters, this is the press conference of the Royal House,

so please remain polite.

Your Highness, say a word.

What's your opinion?

He'll say he won't.

But he already announced he loves her.

Still, his temper won't allow it.

Peach blossom...

has already fallen.

The brief light of spring has withered.

It is good.

After the night-long rain,

a green sprout buds.

That's all.

"The brief light of spring has withered."

It indicates the regret of the passing spring.

Then, he expressed the excitement of the coming summer

by adding, "It's good."

What does it mean?

-Is it rejection or is it acceptance? -He then expressed,

"After the night-long rain, a green sprout buds."

Who would be happy that spring is gone?

-There's nothing good about summer. -I see.

So, you're turning her down.

I get it. I'll pass the message to Jae-kang then.

Wait.

I still said a sprout budded.

Is Hang Ah in the guest room?

Why don't you go check what she's up to?

What is going on?

Nothing's wrong.

-It's just what I feel. -Tell the truth!

You went there to dump him, and now what? Engagement?

Isn't it strange?

It's not like that.

Comrade Lee treats me well.

He expressed his feelings to me.

What's wrong with your voice?

Someone is here.

I'm hanging up.

Sorry, I'm not feeling too well at the moment.

How do you do? I'm Lee Jae-shin.

Did you make the connection when you heard my name?

Lee Jae-kang. Lee Jae-ha. Lee Jae-shin.

How do you do?

Yes, nice to meet you.

Let me think about it.

Hey, get the car ready.

There are conflicts between regions in North Korea too?

Yes. Especially between Hamgyong Province and Pyongan Province.

The general even gave a warning himself.

Is it like that in South Korea too?

Yes. What's wrong with our countries?

Are conflicts really a habit of ours?

I actually came here for a reason.

Someone asked me.

He insisted I came here without telling me anything.

I've become his spy.

Did anything happen back in Jeju Island?

No. Nothing happened.

I know how he is.

So, I can roughly guess what might have happened.

But I'd like to hear both sides of the story.

WORKER'S PARTY OF KOREA

Is Kim Nam Il coming here all of a sudden?

Yes, and he sounds very upset.

This is Eun Kyu-tae speaking.

I've heard about it.

But for you to come here yourself,

-we need to go through-- -That's why I'm heading there now.

-What? -I should be there before three o'clock.

Please inform your checkpoint.

She's not around?

How did it go with Kim Hang Ah?

What on earth did you do to her?

Is the situation really bad?

Didn't you say you played a small prank? You called that a prank?

Playing around with someone?

I'm already going crazy, so please don't--

I know you like women,

but you never messed around with the ones you didn't like.

You said you didn't like her.

My brother is a lazy man.

If he didn't like you,

he wouldn't spend his energy and time for all that stuff.

I'm sure he has feelings for you.

She's having such a hard time.

She cried so much that her face looked...

It'll help her lose weight. That's good.

You're really asking for a beating.

What?

It's all because of Eun Shi-gyeong.

Eun Shi-gyeong?

You mean that guard?

-That boring guy? -How do you know him?

Did he try to hit on you too?

No, I just met him before.

That punk.

Did that man try to hit on Hang Ah?

He's in no place to do that.

But Hang Ah gets all happy in front of him.

-She laughs like this. -Why?

She can't laugh like that?

She hides her frightening sides and smiles like that.

What about me?

I'm the Prince of South Korea!

I spent so much time with her, so how could she like him more than me?

She has such low standards in men.

She said she'd never come to South Korea,

but came right away when she got a call from him.

When I heard that, I...

Do you know how it feels when something in your head...

Like a fuse snapped?

Right, I completely lost my mind.

And...

You like her that much?

What are you saying?

You heard it, right?

Why you...

It sure is complicated.

Is it South Koreans who are complicated,

or is it the nature of men?

Just be a man and tell me.

Do you like me or not?

If I do,

then what?

People get divorced after passionate love.

I'm a royal.

Do you think I can overcome everything to love a North Korean woman?

Do you think the world is so simple?

Even if it's simple, I don't see why I should,

when there's an easier way.

Yes, just like you said,

I am a jerk.

I only know how to think and look at myself.

It's too late to turn back and I don't want to, so why would I?

No jerks actually call themselves a jerk.

I'm just making a way out for myself.

It's easy to do that

if I brand myself as a jerk.

Is Jae-ha still considering?

Why won't he discuss things with me?

Where is he now?

I'm sorry, Your Majesty.

I was afraid you'd be worried,

so I wanted to settle it myself.

I'm sorry, Your Majesty.

-What's wrong? -At the moment,

Minister Kim Nam Il of Unification in North Korea

is heading here.

Hang Ah's dad?

Yes.

Why?

If I am being honest,

I thought of dating the Prince and upgrading my life.

Don't bother.

It's true.

You think I'm too naive,

but I had such an intention.

Of course,

I wanted to take revenge on you too.

That revenge went too far.

But risking my life for revenge

will only harm myself in the end.

So...

I say, let's call off the engagement.

Let's stick to the original plan.

"We love each other,

but we've decided to break up

due to diplomatic issues."

It'll make a fool out of me, but whatever.

How will you bear the humiliation?

You might have to stay single forever.

I can go abroad and marry a foreign man.

Perhaps, with an Arabian prince who's handsome and rich.

What about the WOC?

How can I participate in the WOC in the midst of all this?

I'll have to let someone else do it instead.

Thank you for giving me a good time.

I'll lead a good life with this harsh experience.

You should do the same.

Are you leaving?

Right now?

I'll be leaving tomorrow,

but I might be too busy to see you.

Let's say our goodbyes here and break up.

Let me put this in South Korean way.

Let's end things between us.

You don't even want to shake hands?

In South Korea,

there's a custom we do every time we put an end to something.

It even sounds pretty in Korean.

It's called dwipuli.

-Cheers. -Cheers.

That's superb.

South Korea has a weird custom.

What is the name of this?

The dwipuli shot.

That's right. Dwipuli.

Remember it.

Dwipuli.

It's empty.

Are you drunk? Where are you going?

Amazing! All this is alcohol?

I want to drink here.

Quickly bring the snacks over.

Okay.

Let's finish all the drinks here tonight.

Snacks.

Where is Prince Lee Jae-ha?

Hey.

I won't get fooled again.

You want to kiss me again, right?

Did I kiss you?

It was you who kissed me in your dream.

I can't have such a dream without any feelings between us.

I just saw through your sincerity.

So? Do you want me to kiss you?

My lips are brand new.

But yours are used and worn out.

So?

Arabians have polygamy.

You won't be able to stand it.

Just watch.

I'll chase other women away.

Did you give up on Jang Dong-gun already?

I'm not interested

in someone else's husband.

Forget it.

No one will marry you.

I don't care

whoever it is as long as it's not you.

Will you be okay with me?

It's okay because it's you.

From now on, you're South Korean.

Dad, I'm sorry.

I have a good impression of you.

I love your stingy personality.

Why is my mother stingy?

At the very least, can you not speak in that dialect?

I'll try my best.

Do you think we're fools, Your Highness?

You enjoy all your luxury thanks to us,

so why do you mock us?

Shall I sing a song for you?

It is said that Anmyeon Island

has such a beautiful sunset view.

Your country is poor.

So why are you so stuck up?

This damn country brags about their money all the time.

I'm going back immediately, so send me a car!

You can't.

Jae-ha, you know

I love you, right?

You have time, right? Come out.

Let's pull a prank on him.

Jae-ha will shiver in fear.

If North Korea is really behind this,

I'll get punished for it.
