Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:05,270 --> 00:00:06,969
(This drama was picked and sponsored...)
2
00:00:06,970 --> 00:00:08,806
(by the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism and KOCCA.)
3
00:00:09,787 --> 00:00:11,123
Who is the ogre?
4
00:00:13,828 --> 00:00:15,126
What is wrong?
5
00:00:15,127 --> 00:00:17,952
The runaway soldiers committed a forced marriage in Gobu.
6
00:00:19,068 --> 00:00:21,251
The woman was Myung Sim, the younger sister of Seok Ju.
7
00:00:22,037 --> 00:00:24,251
They got into a fight with furious aristocrats.
8
00:00:24,708 --> 00:00:26,819
A large number of people were injured and killed.
9
00:00:27,548 --> 00:00:28,701
In the end,
10
00:00:30,548 --> 00:00:32,823
Baek Yi Hyun shot the runaway soldiers to death...
11
00:00:33,787 --> 00:00:34,910
and disappeared.
12
00:00:41,587 --> 00:00:42,649
Yi Hyun...
13
00:00:43,897 --> 00:00:45,182
did what?
14
00:00:45,928 --> 00:00:47,295
Tell me the truth.
15
00:00:57,738 --> 00:01:03,520
(Civilized Joseon)
16
00:01:10,387 --> 00:01:12,193
The leader of Tenyukyo...
17
00:01:12,787 --> 00:01:15,133
should not use a Joseon name.
18
00:01:16,087 --> 00:01:20,382
I shall give you a Japanese name.
19
00:01:24,337 --> 00:01:25,724
I have decided one for myself already.
20
00:01:39,477 --> 00:01:40,508
That is right.
21
00:01:43,587 --> 00:01:44,638
Yi Hyun is...
22
00:01:50,188 --> 00:01:51,278
Oni.
23
00:01:53,257 --> 00:01:54,420
the ogre.
24
00:02:01,108 --> 00:02:02,392
You fool.
25
00:02:03,007 --> 00:02:04,405
I am very sorry.
26
00:02:04,878 --> 00:02:07,866
You will come to the headquarter of Jipgangso and stand trial.
27
00:02:08,448 --> 00:02:09,499
Okay.
28
00:02:14,288 --> 00:02:17,827
General, if you hold a trial, everybody will find out.
29
00:02:18,488 --> 00:02:20,049
Think about all that he has done until now...
30
00:02:21,758 --> 00:02:23,523
and turn a blind eye just this once.
31
00:02:23,958 --> 00:02:27,905
Do you think the others will also turn a blind eye on this?
32
00:02:29,228 --> 00:02:32,634
If that was the case, I would not even have asked about the ogre.
33
00:02:34,437 --> 00:02:35,662
I will do what you say.
34
00:02:51,358 --> 00:02:52,919
The ogre was your younger brother?
35
00:02:54,988 --> 00:02:56,150
I am sorry.
36
00:02:56,687 --> 00:02:58,391
You darn punk.
37
00:03:00,258 --> 00:03:01,896
You were our boss.
38
00:03:01,897 --> 00:03:04,693
How could you lie to your men like this?
39
00:03:05,497 --> 00:03:07,242
Was I supposed to tell the truth then?
40
00:03:07,867 --> 00:03:10,591
That my brother is the ogre and that we should kill him?
41
00:03:10,937 --> 00:03:12,334
What did you say?
42
00:03:14,948 --> 00:03:16,029
Hold your anger.
43
00:03:17,948 --> 00:03:19,273
Darn it.
44
00:03:21,187 --> 00:03:23,911
I understand since he was your younger brother.
45
00:03:26,858 --> 00:03:28,560
But you are no longer my boss.
46
00:03:35,367 --> 00:03:37,366
You should have stopped him from becoming a Jipgang.
47
00:03:37,367 --> 00:03:38,537
(Jipgang: Head of Jipgangso)
48
00:03:38,538 --> 00:03:39,996
You and your brother...
49
00:03:42,937 --> 00:03:45,121
killed Beon Gae twice. Do you know that?
50
00:03:49,877 --> 00:03:50,897
Yes.
51
00:03:53,578 --> 00:03:55,424
This is the true nature of the people...
52
00:03:57,048 --> 00:03:58,313
of the Baek family.
53
00:04:16,168 --> 00:04:18,907
- This is ridiculous! - How could it be?
54
00:04:18,908 --> 00:04:22,927
- This is nonsense. - What should we do? Goodness.
55
00:04:27,288 --> 00:04:30,826
You are guilty for having helped Official Baek Yi Hyun,
56
00:04:31,288 --> 00:04:33,358
the man who killed many of our soldiers including Kim Hak Soo.
57
00:04:34,288 --> 00:04:37,010
You are guilty for staying quiet when he became the Jipgang of Gobu.
58
00:04:37,757 --> 00:04:40,097
And thus, you are also guilty for having caused...
59
00:04:40,098 --> 00:04:41,352
the bloodshed in Gobu.
60
00:04:43,428 --> 00:04:47,283
Those are the things that Baek Yi Kang is guilty of.
61
00:04:49,067 --> 00:04:51,659
Do you plead guilty?
62
00:04:52,838 --> 00:04:54,408
Do not worry.
63
00:04:54,848 --> 00:04:57,194
I am going somewhere nice.
64
00:05:06,517 --> 00:05:07,681
Yes, I do.
65
00:05:07,788 --> 00:05:09,056
- How could you do that? - My gosh.
66
00:05:09,057 --> 00:05:10,629
- You are unbelievable. - This is crazy.
67
00:05:10,798 --> 00:05:12,461
How could you do such a thing?
68
00:05:15,968 --> 00:05:18,038
Be quiet, everyone! Silence!
69
00:05:25,038 --> 00:05:26,364
Please begin the discussion.
70
00:05:37,858 --> 00:05:40,162
- General. - Have they come to a decision?
71
00:05:41,057 --> 00:05:44,220
Everyone utterly hates the ogre.
72
00:05:45,358 --> 00:05:46,888
What did they decide on?
73
00:05:48,867 --> 00:05:49,967
They decided on the expulsion of him from the Donghak army.
74
00:05:49,968 --> 00:05:54,353
(Expulsion: An act of disqualifying and kicking out a member)
75
00:05:57,877 --> 00:05:59,611
This is way too harsh.
76
00:06:00,877 --> 00:06:02,887
He did make a mistake.
77
00:06:03,747 --> 00:06:05,584
But it was his younger brother.
78
00:06:05,947 --> 00:06:07,926
You should at least cut him some slack.
79
00:06:07,988 --> 00:06:11,455
That is exactly why we are expelling him.
80
00:06:11,757 --> 00:06:14,746
That is the worst punishment a Donghak follower can get.
81
00:06:19,898 --> 00:06:21,938
How can you be so quiet about this?
82
00:06:22,428 --> 00:06:24,845
Are you really going to cut ties with him like this?
83
00:06:28,968 --> 00:06:32,171
I want you to hold a retrial unless you wish to see me go crazy.
84
00:06:33,437 --> 00:06:34,607
Hold a retrial!
85
00:06:34,608 --> 00:06:35,770
That is enough.
86
00:06:36,848 --> 00:06:37,977
Commander Son.
87
00:06:37,978 --> 00:06:39,579
The headquarter of Jipgangso has reached a verdict.
88
00:06:40,478 --> 00:06:41,569
You need to abide by it.
89
00:06:43,247 --> 00:06:44,380
I will...
90
00:06:46,718 --> 00:06:47,778
accept the verdict.
91
00:07:17,757 --> 00:07:19,216
I am sorry for causing trouble.
92
00:07:19,658 --> 00:07:21,259
Do not be so distressed.
93
00:07:21,757 --> 00:07:24,256
Go back to Gobu and stay out of trouble.
94
00:07:24,257 --> 00:07:25,481
I will not go to Gobu.
95
00:07:29,468 --> 00:07:31,136
Please let me serve in the war as a commoner.
96
00:07:31,137 --> 00:07:32,397
(Serve in a war as a commoner: Enlisting as a common soldier)
97
00:07:32,398 --> 00:07:33,496
What are you talking about?
98
00:07:33,497 --> 00:07:35,446
The King has ordered you to take arms...
99
00:07:35,738 --> 00:07:37,165
and form a loyal army again.
100
00:07:38,507 --> 00:07:41,670
I will serve you from afar and head to Hanyang.
101
00:07:42,178 --> 00:07:43,605
We will not be raising an army.
102
00:07:45,317 --> 00:07:46,879
Kyeong Sun, I want you to dismiss...
103
00:07:47,488 --> 00:07:50,201
all the men who have volunteered and gathered here to fight.
104
00:07:51,187 --> 00:07:53,808
- Yes, General. - What are you talking about?
105
00:07:54,387 --> 00:07:56,530
Japan is about to take over Joseon.
106
00:07:56,788 --> 00:07:58,225
But you are not going to raise an army?
107
00:08:00,158 --> 00:08:02,967
- General. - The prerequisite...
108
00:08:02,968 --> 00:08:04,498
of the peace treaty was to dismiss the Donghak soldiers.
109
00:08:05,038 --> 00:08:08,576
What do you think will happen if we raise an army?
110
00:08:09,338 --> 00:08:12,703
The treaty will get canceled, and the Reform Bill and Jipgangso...
111
00:08:12,937 --> 00:08:14,246
will all become completely useless.
112
00:08:14,247 --> 00:08:17,307
You can show the secret letter to Minister Kim Hak Jin.
113
00:08:17,617 --> 00:08:19,847
If we tell them that we got orders from the King,
114
00:08:19,848 --> 00:08:21,816
he will not be able to cancel the treaty.
115
00:08:21,817 --> 00:08:23,316
The district magistrates and aristocrats...
116
00:08:23,317 --> 00:08:24,685
who are against the Reform Bill...
117
00:08:24,988 --> 00:08:26,456
will use this as an opportunity...
118
00:08:26,457 --> 00:08:28,631
to get rid of the Jigpangso in their districts.
119
00:08:28,988 --> 00:08:30,956
Will we have to show the secret letter to every single one of them?
120
00:08:30,957 --> 00:08:32,559
So you are not going to raise an army...
121
00:08:33,398 --> 00:08:35,326
just so you can protect the treaty?
122
00:08:35,327 --> 00:08:36,389
Yes.
123
00:08:40,067 --> 00:08:41,190
General.
124
00:08:42,168 --> 00:08:45,095
Our country is about to get destroyed.
125
00:08:46,477 --> 00:08:48,894
Which is more important? Our country or the Jipgangso?
126
00:08:50,548 --> 00:08:52,047
The treaty is only one problem.
127
00:08:52,248 --> 00:08:53,247
It will be hard to gather soldiers...
128
00:08:53,248 --> 00:08:54,819
because the harvest season is coming up.
129
00:08:55,288 --> 00:08:56,920
And by the looks of what the Japanese are doing,
130
00:08:57,587 --> 00:08:59,352
it is very unlikely that we will win the war against them.
131
00:09:03,158 --> 00:09:04,321
My goodness.
132
00:09:06,357 --> 00:09:08,408
You guys suddenly have so many excuses.
133
00:09:09,528 --> 00:09:11,711
I guess you never really wanted to fight.
134
00:09:11,998 --> 00:09:13,598
- What did you say? - Enough.
135
00:09:17,207 --> 00:09:18,360
You should go now.
136
00:09:19,038 --> 00:09:20,465
Since when...
137
00:09:23,878 --> 00:09:27,518
did it matter so much for you to think about what is reasonable?
138
00:09:32,087 --> 00:09:35,657
I know I am in no position to say this to you.
139
00:09:37,528 --> 00:09:38,578
But I am very...
140
00:09:40,967 --> 00:09:42,599
I am very disappointed in you.
141
00:09:50,337 --> 00:09:51,836
That darn punk.
142
00:10:27,607 --> 00:10:29,821
(Daeil Store)
143
00:10:36,388 --> 00:10:37,785
How dare you?
144
00:10:38,587 --> 00:10:42,024
I am the secretary who serves Joseon's king.
145
00:10:42,628 --> 00:10:43,882
That is why we are here.
146
00:10:46,357 --> 00:10:47,419
You are...
147
00:10:48,097 --> 00:10:49,557
a Joseon person?
148
00:11:04,077 --> 00:11:05,404
I am a civilized man.
149
00:11:07,518 --> 00:11:09,628
Secretary Lee Geon Hyung has been away.
150
00:11:10,118 --> 00:11:12,096
Do you know where he is?
151
00:11:16,357 --> 00:11:17,989
No one at the Secretariat knows either.
152
00:11:21,798 --> 00:11:22,990
That blows.
153
00:11:23,827 --> 00:11:26,754
But we cannot question the King.
154
00:11:26,898 --> 00:11:30,304
I have a feeling he was sent as a secret emissary.
155
00:11:31,138 --> 00:11:32,259
Where to?
156
00:11:33,977 --> 00:11:35,844
To someone who can fight Japan.
157
00:11:36,278 --> 00:11:39,133
Jeon Bong Jun in Jeolla Province is Joseon's only hope.
158
00:11:39,847 --> 00:11:42,647
Your king is not that bold a man.
159
00:11:42,648 --> 00:11:44,218
When close to someone who is bold,
160
00:11:44,557 --> 00:11:46,526
even a coward can become bold.
161
00:11:55,928 --> 00:11:57,050
Heungseon Daewongun.
162
00:11:59,668 --> 00:12:01,167
I must see the legation officer.
163
00:12:02,607 --> 00:12:03,659
Oh, right.
164
00:12:04,577 --> 00:12:06,852
I have news that will please you.
165
00:12:08,477 --> 00:12:09,907
The National Military Administration...
166
00:12:09,908 --> 00:12:11,785
was established to carry out Joseon's reform.
167
00:12:11,977 --> 00:12:13,677
They confirmed the first reform plan.
168
00:12:13,678 --> 00:12:15,147
(National Military Administration: Founded in 1894 by Japan's force)
169
00:12:15,148 --> 00:12:16,647
The civil service exam will be scrapped...
170
00:12:17,048 --> 00:12:20,077
and a Japanese bureaucracy will take its place.
171
00:12:22,388 --> 00:12:23,754
Is there anything more powerful?
172
00:12:24,898 --> 00:12:27,989
The caste system will be abolished.
173
00:12:37,837 --> 00:12:38,929
That is...
174
00:12:41,077 --> 00:12:42,200
powerful.
175
00:12:42,408 --> 00:12:43,978
It is a reform.
176
00:12:48,447 --> 00:12:49,617
The Gabo Reform.
177
00:12:49,618 --> 00:12:53,716
(Gabo Reform: Joseon government's reform of 1894)
178
00:12:53,717 --> 00:12:54,887
"In the year of the horse,"
179
00:12:54,888 --> 00:12:56,316
"instead of the Qing's era name,"
180
00:12:56,487 --> 00:12:58,977
"Joseon will count its years starting from the foundation year."
181
00:12:59,298 --> 00:13:02,663
"The National Military Administration announces this."
182
00:13:03,097 --> 00:13:06,229
"Taxes will be paid not in goods but in cash."

00:13:52,878 --> 00:13:56,315
The ex-Home Affairs Minister Inoue Kaoru.

Not even Ito Hirobumi can control him.
206
00:14:02,687 --> 00:14:04,667
If they sent him as a legation officer,
207
00:14:05,998 --> 00:14:09,333

They have practically gained control of Chungcheong Province.

What more do they want?
230
00:15:35,288 --> 00:15:38,991
They are far from their homeland and struggling with supplies.
231
00:15:39,258 --> 00:15:41,086
- Supplies? - They want us...
232
00:15:41,087 --> 00:15:43,199

233
00:15:44,087 --> 00:15:45,826
- Refuse. - My lord.
234
00:15:45,827 --> 00:15:49,096
That could bring upon something worse than them invading the palace.
235

Not enough to cause grave concern though.
262

Why did you ask to see all the chief peddlers?

I heard administrative changes...
264
00:17:52,957 --> 00:17:55,538
will be made regarding the peddlers this year.
265

They will not cancel our monopoly, will they?

We must keep it.

The right to monopoly might fill our bellies for now,
270
00:18:12,378 --> 00:18:15,610
but it will not solve the problems we have.
271
00:18:16,408 --> 00:18:19,641
The culture and merchants from the West will outdo us,
272
00:18:19,977 --> 00:18:21,823

00:18:26,588 --> 00:18:29,923

First, our peddler offices...
279
00:18:42,808 --> 00:18:45,695

I came to relay a message from Takeda.
329
00:21:35,858 --> 00:21:38,396
Since you are the temporary chief peddler,
330
00:21:38,397 --> 00:21:40,367
he wants you to gather all the peddlers...
331
00:21:40,368 --> 00:21:41,968
and send them to Chungcheong Province.
332
00:21:42,568 --> 00:21:45,567
He said he is looking forward to the friendship you two have.
333
00:21:46,407 --> 00:21:48,927
Do you think it is reasonable to make our peddlers fight...
334
00:21:49,237 --> 00:21:50,605
for someone else's country?
335
00:21:51,008 --> 00:21:53,277
If you have any complaints, you can talk to him.

I am asking you.
337

Since the war has already begun,
338
00:21:57,078 --> 00:21:58,916
is it not best for it to end quickly for the sake of Joseon?
339
00:21:58,917 --> 00:22:02,325
It just means that Japan will take over Qing's place.
340
00:22:02,457 --> 00:22:04,087
Is that helpful to our nation?
341
00:22:04,088 --> 00:22:06,027
A civilized country is better than a barbaric one.
342

So I do hope you will do your best to guard His Majesty.
362
00:23:35,848 --> 00:23:37,041
I will do so.
363
00:23:42,758 --> 00:23:43,880
Let us move out.
364
00:23:49,397 --> 00:23:51,877
They are quite the gentlemen.
365
00:23:52,298 --> 00:23:54,696
They moved out so easily.
366
00:23:54,697 --> 00:23:56,575
They have already conquered the core.
367
00:23:58,068 --> 00:24:00,209
There is no need for them to bother us anymore.
368
00:24:03,338 --> 00:24:05,754
They want to requisition the peddlers?
369
00:24:05,977 --> 00:24:09,277
He said it was a favor, but it was clearly coercion.
370
00:24:09,278 --> 00:24:12,306
The National Military Administration must stop them.
371
00:24:13,987 --> 00:24:16,117
The Japanese are surrounding that administration.
372
00:24:16,118 --> 00:24:17,852
There is nothing they can do for us.
373
00:24:18,387 --> 00:24:20,498
You need to show your loyalty to this country.
374
00:24:23,197 --> 00:24:24,527
Tell the chief peddler of the National Peddlers' Inn...
375
00:24:24,528 --> 00:24:26,465
to refuse the favor.
376
00:24:28,437 --> 00:24:30,028
I will relay your message, Your Highness.
377
00:24:30,667 --> 00:24:32,567
However, the chief peddler's loyalty alone...
378
00:24:32,568 --> 00:24:34,750
will not subdue their coercion.
379
00:24:35,137 --> 00:24:38,176
Please let His Majesty know how grave the situation is.
380
00:24:38,177 --> 00:24:39,197
I will not hear any more.
381
00:24:40,008 --> 00:24:41,646
He spends every night crying in front...
382
00:24:41,647 --> 00:24:43,483
of the ancestral tablets.
383
00:24:43,977 --> 00:24:46,395
I cannot distract His Majesty for such a petty matter.
384
00:24:48,358 --> 00:24:49,438
Tell the others...
385
00:24:49,687 --> 00:24:54,145
that I will watch how the peddlers prove their loyalty to this nation.
386
00:25:01,697 --> 00:25:02,921
How dare you?
387
00:25:03,568 --> 00:25:04,760
Move aside.
388
00:25:08,637 --> 00:25:11,228
What has this nation come to?
389
00:25:13,977 --> 00:25:15,579
What are you doing?
390
00:25:17,048 --> 00:25:18,679
Move aside!
391
00:25:38,608 --> 00:25:41,524
That Man will escort...
392
00:25:42,078 --> 00:25:44,280
the King's secret emissary to Jeon Bong Jun.
393
00:25:55,558 --> 00:25:56,609
Lady Song.
394
00:25:57,558 --> 00:25:59,802
The chief peddlers have already dispersed.
395
00:26:00,187 --> 00:26:02,371
They were afraid that the Japanese army would attack them.
396
00:26:02,657 --> 00:26:04,157
They ran away without having lunch.
397
00:26:06,927 --> 00:26:09,927
What will you do? Will you listen to Yi Hyun?
398
00:26:11,637 --> 00:26:13,708
Are you sure that the man Yi Kang escorted...
399
00:26:14,407 --> 00:26:17,192
is the King's secret emissary?
400
00:26:17,477 --> 00:26:19,007
Yes, I am.
401
00:26:19,747 --> 00:26:20,799
But why?
402
00:26:22,018 --> 00:26:25,646
What do you think the King told Jeon Bong Jun?
403
00:26:25,647 --> 00:26:26,973
Is it not obvious?
404
00:26:27,318 --> 00:26:29,087
He probably wanted Jeon Bong Jun...
405
00:26:29,088 --> 00:26:30,886
to bring his men...
406
00:26:30,887 --> 00:26:32,826
and save him.
407
00:26:38,298 --> 00:26:39,490
Tell the others...
408
00:26:40,328 --> 00:26:44,825
that I will watch how the peddlers prove their loyalty to this nation.
409
00:26:46,568 --> 00:26:47,629
Let us go.
410
00:26:48,137 --> 00:26:49,259
Where?
411
00:26:50,538 --> 00:26:51,629
To Jeonju.
412
00:26:53,578 --> 00:26:55,822
(Gobu Government Office)
413
00:27:01,247 --> 00:27:02,890
What are those?
414
00:27:02,917 --> 00:27:05,857
These are the appeals from Confucian scholars,
415
00:27:05,858 --> 00:27:06,926
asking for the withdrawal of the Gabo Reform...
416
00:27:06,927 --> 00:27:08,182
and the disbandment of the National Military Administration.
417
00:27:08,387 --> 00:27:09,426
"Appeals"?
418
00:27:09,427 --> 00:27:11,797
The Gaehwa members who are carrying...
419
00:27:11,798 --> 00:27:14,520
the Japanese on their backs are about to bring this nation down.
420
00:27:14,927 --> 00:27:17,297
Please send this to the Jeolla Provincial Office...
421
00:27:17,298 --> 00:27:19,567
so that the King may read them.
422
00:27:19,568 --> 00:27:20,658
Goodness.
423
00:27:21,838 --> 00:27:22,899
Master!
424
00:27:25,348 --> 00:27:27,143
What is it?
425
00:27:27,177 --> 00:27:29,317
Something is going to happen at the Jipgangso.
426
00:27:29,318 --> 00:27:30,847
What is it this time?
427
00:27:30,848 --> 00:27:34,284
The loan sharks are gathered there.
428
00:27:39,858 --> 00:27:40,908
My goodness.
429
00:27:40,927 --> 00:27:43,712
- We need to get paid... - What are you talking about?
430
00:27:46,268 --> 00:27:49,735
Who are you to order us to write off debts?
431
00:27:49,997 --> 00:27:53,609
I am the manager of this Jipgangso who reforms the bill.
432
00:27:53,838 --> 00:27:56,337
Are you sure you are not a thief?
433
00:27:56,338 --> 00:28:00,183
My, you must have never seen a real thief before.
434
00:28:00,878 --> 00:28:01,877
You lent us trivial amounts of barely...
435
00:28:01,878 --> 00:28:03,617
at the farm hardship period...
436
00:28:03,618 --> 00:28:07,646
and took much more during harvest. Are you not the thieves?
437
00:28:07,647 --> 00:28:10,117
How dare this wench say such a thing?
438
00:28:10,118 --> 00:28:11,587
Watch what you say.
439
00:28:13,887 --> 00:28:16,549
Where is your dignity as an aristocrat?
440
00:28:21,197 --> 00:28:23,037
I will not converse with someone lowly,
441
00:28:23,038 --> 00:28:24,669
so bring out the Jipgang.
442
00:28:25,707 --> 00:28:27,966
Because of all the chaos,
443
00:28:27,967 --> 00:28:30,527
no one is willing to take that position.
444
00:28:31,338 --> 00:28:34,906
I had no choice but to substitute for that position,
445
00:28:34,907 --> 00:28:36,957
so you can talk with me.
446
00:28:38,788 --> 00:28:40,587
Since you are all here today,
447
00:28:40,588 --> 00:28:43,317
you might as well stamp the documents.
448
00:28:43,318 --> 00:28:44,439
How dare you?
449
00:28:44,687 --> 00:28:47,327
You are just as wicked as the rumor says you are.
450
00:28:47,328 --> 00:28:49,627
Is that the only rumor about me?
451
00:28:49,628 --> 00:28:52,027
Are there no rumors about how ill-tempered I am?
452
00:28:52,028 --> 00:28:53,599
They say that you are scum.
453
00:28:53,667 --> 00:28:56,567
You are a piece of scum who enticed your master...
454
00:28:56,568 --> 00:29:00,107
whom you served in order to live a better life.
455
00:29:02,977 --> 00:29:05,746
How could you talk so recklessly about something you do not know of?
456
00:29:05,747 --> 00:29:07,033
Do not get involved!
457
00:29:11,747 --> 00:29:14,297
As the chief of hyangcheong, let me warn you.
458
00:29:14,518 --> 00:29:17,006
You must stop provoking the aristocrats.
459
00:29:20,487 --> 00:29:21,651
Let us leave.
460
00:29:29,467 --> 00:29:30,559
Yoo Wol.
461
00:29:32,068 --> 00:29:33,158
Are you okay?
462
00:29:33,737 --> 00:29:34,767
I am.
463
00:29:34,768 --> 00:29:36,818
Are you really okay?
464
00:29:37,508 --> 00:29:38,528
Yes.
465
00:29:39,548 --> 00:29:42,169
I came to relay a message from the headquarters of Jipgangso.
466
00:29:42,477 --> 00:29:43,772
I am looking for Yoo Wol, the manager.
467
00:29:44,848 --> 00:29:45,908
It is me.
468
00:29:46,848 --> 00:29:49,617
That Man was expelled?
469
00:29:49,618 --> 00:29:50,739
Yes.
470
00:29:51,687 --> 00:29:53,226
He is no longer the boss of the detached force.
471
00:29:53,227 --> 00:29:55,726
My goodness, he deserved that.
472
00:29:55,727 --> 00:29:57,656
It feels great to hear that.
473
00:29:57,657 --> 00:30:00,075
This gruel already tastes so much better.
474
00:30:00,667 --> 00:30:03,537
I thought he was Jeon Bong Jun's favorite.
475
00:30:03,538 --> 00:30:04,823
What happened?
476
00:30:05,508 --> 00:30:08,136
They found out that he hid the fact...
477
00:30:08,137 --> 00:30:10,962
that Young Master Baek was the ogre.
478
00:30:14,778 --> 00:30:17,399
This gruel is too cold and not tasty.
479
00:30:17,778 --> 00:30:18,940
Hey.
480
00:30:19,917 --> 00:30:21,172
Please bring Yoo Wol.
481
00:30:25,018 --> 00:30:26,619
I heard about Yi Kang.
482
00:30:27,887 --> 00:30:29,051
It is for the best.
483
00:30:30,157 --> 00:30:31,627
With the Gabo Reform and everything,
484
00:30:31,628 --> 00:30:33,301
this nation is falling apart.
485
00:30:33,427 --> 00:30:35,538
He would not have been able to maintain his position for long.
486
00:30:37,038 --> 00:30:39,823
Finally, he has found some room to breathe.
487
00:30:39,868 --> 00:30:41,541
Tell me why you called me here.
488
00:30:44,808 --> 00:30:47,194
Please empty the servants' quarters.
489
00:30:47,848 --> 00:30:49,117
Every time I see the Jipgangso,
490
00:30:49,118 --> 00:30:51,362
I get enraged because it reminds me of Yi Hyun.
491
00:30:51,447 --> 00:30:52,773
I am afraid I cannot do that.
492
00:30:55,084 --> 00:30:57,129
(Episode 34 will air shortly.)
493
00:30:58,795 --> 00:31:00,162
I am afraid I cannot do that.
494
00:31:05,235 --> 00:31:06,704
Do as I say.
495
00:31:07,245 --> 00:31:09,457
You must do so for Yi Kang's future.
496
00:31:09,515 --> 00:31:12,911
Yi Kang fought with his life for that Jipgangso.
497
00:31:13,214 --> 00:31:15,867
And Young Master Baek got it up and running.
498
00:31:16,615 --> 00:31:18,624
I will not leave over my dead body.
499
00:31:19,655 --> 00:31:20,705
My gosh.
500
00:31:22,254 --> 00:31:25,314
You got all big and strong.
501
00:31:26,364 --> 00:31:28,333
Do not treat me like a servant.
502
00:31:28,824 --> 00:31:30,963
The class system was thrown out long ago.
503
00:31:30,964 --> 00:31:34,003
Just because you have a title, have you lost all reason?
504
00:31:34,004 --> 00:31:36,933
Watch how you address the manager of a Jipgangso.
505
00:31:36,934 --> 00:31:39,076
How did you end up like this?
506
00:31:40,845 --> 00:31:42,406
Are you crazy, Yoo Wol?
507
00:31:42,675 --> 00:31:45,775
You should be relieved that I am utterly sane.
508
00:31:46,485 --> 00:31:50,583
Once I lose my mind, you will have a stake through your belly...
509
00:31:50,584 --> 00:31:52,350
and smell the incense at your funeral.
510
00:32:03,934 --> 00:32:05,974
(Episode 34)
511
00:32:12,844 --> 00:32:13,895
Yi Kang.
512
00:32:14,745 --> 00:32:15,796
Mother.
513
00:32:16,915 --> 00:32:19,073
Are you a Donghak member?
514
00:32:19,074 --> 00:32:20,819
Why would you call me that?
515
00:32:22,785 --> 00:32:25,507
I am a loyal soldier. A Donghak soldier.
516
00:32:26,824 --> 00:32:27,977
What?
517
00:32:28,585 --> 00:32:30,724
My goodness.
518
00:32:30,725 --> 00:32:31,979
Do not cry.
519
00:32:32,725 --> 00:32:34,631
Hooray!
520
00:32:34,764 --> 00:32:36,530
Now the good times will come.
521
00:32:40,505 --> 00:32:42,137
You fool.
522
00:32:44,934 --> 00:32:48,443
Why did you start something you could not handle?
523
00:32:51,945 --> 00:32:54,361
You idiot.
524
00:32:57,314 --> 00:32:58,784
Darn you.
525
00:33:06,424 --> 00:33:08,638
(Namwon Government Office)
526
00:33:10,135 --> 00:33:11,186
Listen.
527
00:33:12,334 --> 00:33:14,712
Just because you lot are nobles,
528
00:33:15,135 --> 00:33:18,775
if you act all haughty, I will put bombs in your mouths.
529
00:33:19,244 --> 00:33:21,104
- Do you understand? - Yes.
530
00:33:21,105 --> 00:33:22,125
Kim Ga.
531
00:33:22,744 --> 00:33:24,141
- Yi Kang. - It has been a while.
532
00:33:30,385 --> 00:33:31,608
Fight back.
533
00:33:33,385 --> 00:33:35,262
I plan to collect my dues.
534
00:33:38,324 --> 00:33:39,620
Is Commander Kim in?
535
00:33:40,294 --> 00:33:42,743
I heard the news.
536
00:33:47,804 --> 00:33:49,437
Why are you here?
537
00:33:50,475 --> 00:33:53,025
To ask what you are thinking.
538
00:33:53,105 --> 00:33:54,195
About what?
539
00:33:54,674 --> 00:33:56,653
You heard what happened to me.
540
00:33:57,345 --> 00:34:00,577
Then you must know what is going on in Joseon.
541
00:34:01,084 --> 00:34:02,143
And?
542
00:34:02,144 --> 00:34:03,746
Will you fight the Japanese?
543
00:34:06,885 --> 00:34:10,525
If you will, I would like to help you.
544
00:34:11,655 --> 00:34:13,501
I may have been expelled,
545
00:34:14,424 --> 00:34:16,740
but my heart is still that of the detached force boss.
546
00:34:17,095 --> 00:34:18,363
If you are here,
547
00:34:18,364 --> 00:34:20,853
that means Nokdu does not want to fight.
548
00:34:20,935 --> 00:34:23,759
All he cares about is the Jipgangso.
549
00:34:24,204 --> 00:34:26,111
If you will make up your mind,
550
00:34:27,174 --> 00:34:30,031
then the general will too.
551
00:34:30,244 --> 00:34:33,069
Even if I decide to fight the Japanese,
552
00:34:34,484 --> 00:34:35,842
you cannot.
553
00:34:37,385 --> 00:34:38,384
Pardon?
554
00:34:38,385 --> 00:34:41,138
The ogre killed five of my men.
555
00:34:43,454 --> 00:34:46,280
I will let you go today for old time's sake.
556
00:34:47,424 --> 00:34:49,200
Do not come here again.

Yi Kang is not in Gobu.
559
00:35:08,544 --> 00:35:10,248
He must be traveling.
560
00:35:11,054 --> 00:35:14,553
He did nothing but fight. He will have a lot to think about.
561
00:35:14,655 --> 00:35:18,602
I hope he does not cause trouble somewhere with his temper.
562
00:35:19,254 --> 00:35:22,019
He is not the old Yi Kang. He has grown up.
563
00:35:22,294 --> 00:35:24,742
Do you not think you should have...
564
00:35:25,335 --> 00:35:27,712
told him about the plans?
565
00:35:29,165 --> 00:35:30,358
What plans?
566
00:35:31,335 --> 00:35:32,534
Mustering an army.
567

(Mustering an army: To rise in arms)
568
00:35:35,405 --> 00:35:38,739
Japanese spies are everywhere.
569
00:35:39,614 --> 00:35:41,348
We will rise as soon as possible,
570
00:35:41,984 --> 00:35:44,127
but until then, we will deceive others.
571
00:35:44,855 --> 00:35:46,558
Tell the King that.
572
00:35:47,754 --> 00:35:48,846
I will.
573
00:35:50,855 --> 00:35:53,414
I thought he was smart enough to catch on.
574
00:35:54,265 --> 00:35:55,957
Not that he would believe me.
575
00:35:56,294 --> 00:35:57,457
Come on.
576
00:35:58,234 --> 00:36:00,664
Do you not know he would believe you...
577
00:36:00,665 --> 00:36:02,878
even if you told a blatant lie?
578
00:36:09,544 --> 00:36:11,743

00:36:11,744 --> 00:36:14,642
- Goodness. - Wait a second.
580
00:36:15,715 --> 00:36:16,806
Buy this top.
581
00:36:17,614 --> 00:36:20,103
- Hey. - Goodness.
582
00:36:39,645 --> 00:36:41,308
Secretary Lee Geon Hyung is back.
583
00:36:43,374 --> 00:36:44,803
We lost him,
584
00:36:45,275 --> 00:36:47,222
but he looked like he had been on a long trip.
585
00:36:47,444 --> 00:36:49,495
I guess he met Jeon Bong Jun.
586
00:36:50,355 --> 00:36:51,915
I will find him as soon as possible.
587
00:36:52,655 --> 00:36:53,776
Do not bother.
588
00:36:58,554 --> 00:36:59,793
Jeon Bong Jun...
589
00:36:59,794 --> 00:37:02,518
convinced the men who had gathered to fight...
590
00:37:03,134 --> 00:37:04,930
and sent them home.
591
00:37:06,804 --> 00:37:08,334
Whatever the King says,
592
00:37:09,004 --> 00:37:11,076
he does not want to fight Japan.
593
00:37:13,044 --> 00:37:15,248
This is unexpected.
594
00:37:15,975 --> 00:37:17,274
A sane man...
595
00:37:17,275 --> 00:37:20,242
would not want to take on Japan's great army.
596
00:37:21,845 --> 00:37:23,714
I had a bad feeling...
597
00:37:23,715 --> 00:37:25,449
as if someone was lurking in the shadows.
598
00:37:26,424 --> 00:37:27,577
Now I can relax.
599
00:37:37,465 --> 00:37:38,759
Excuse me.
600
00:37:39,934 --> 00:37:41,003
Who are you?
601
00:37:41,004 --> 00:37:44,503
Master Takeda. I am Lee Doo Hwang, Head of Jangwuiyeong.
602
00:37:44,934 --> 00:37:48,138
I have respected you all along...
603
00:37:48,944 --> 00:37:51,423

604
00:37:55,314 --> 00:37:56,334
You are...
605
00:37:57,015 --> 00:37:58,717
Do you know my junior?
606
00:37:59,684 --> 00:38:00,746
Your junior?
607
00:38:14,405 --> 00:38:15,486
Darn it.
608
00:38:16,105 --> 00:38:18,787
I have never seen a man who hates bribes.
609
00:38:25,114 --> 00:38:27,429
Do you have something left to say?
610
00:38:30,554 --> 00:38:32,187
Do you want a promotion that bad?
611
00:38:32,314 --> 00:38:34,569
How dare you talk to me like that?
612
00:38:37,124 --> 00:38:38,247
Just answer.
613
00:38:38,924 --> 00:38:40,802
Do you want a promotion?
614
00:38:43,595 --> 00:38:44,686
I do.
615
00:38:47,705 --> 00:38:50,050
Right. Before that,
616
00:38:50,275 --> 00:38:52,958
let me pay you back for the Jeonju Castle battle.
617
00:38:59,884 --> 00:39:01,344
Instead of getting a promotion,
618
00:39:01,345 --> 00:39:03,966
you will get in trouble for bribing a diplomat unless you do as I say.
619
00:39:05,655 --> 00:39:07,114
Tell me what I need to do.
620
00:39:07,254 --> 00:39:09,060
Find out Secretary Lee's whereabouts.
621
00:39:11,525 --> 00:39:12,678
All right.
622
00:39:26,004 --> 00:39:30,113
Your debts will be written off soon, so do not worry too much.
623
00:39:30,114 --> 00:39:32,873
Thank you, Manager.
624
00:39:32,874 --> 00:39:35,598
Oh, my. You do not have to call me that.
625
00:39:36,484 --> 00:39:37,637
I will leave you alone now.
626
00:39:39,555 --> 00:39:41,053
Thank you so much.
627
00:39:45,795 --> 00:39:47,090
Bye.
628
00:39:50,534 --> 00:39:53,434
I can do this alone now.
629
00:39:53,435 --> 00:39:56,393
All I do these days is make straw shoes.
630
00:39:57,274 --> 00:39:59,244
I should, of course, keep you company.
631
00:40:00,845 --> 00:40:03,465
You seem more excited than I am.
632
00:40:03,545 --> 00:40:04,565

633
00:40:05,374 --> 00:40:07,659
Maybe I am.

Do you have any idea who they were?
650

I am not sure.
651
00:41:31,335 --> 00:41:33,813
There are many people who are unhappy with Jipgangso.
652
00:41:34,864 --> 00:41:37,503

A masked gang appeared and beat her up.
665

Had Yi Kang not saved her, she would have died.

because of Yi Hyun.
678

I knew this would happen to Lady Yoo Wol one day.
715
00:46:02,805 --> 00:46:05,763
She is only a manager. Why did this happen to her?
716
00:46:05,904 --> 00:46:07,301
She used to be a slave.
717

The aristocrats think she is a nuisance.
718
00:46:14,315 --> 00:46:16,833
Have they not burned the slave documents yet in Gobu?

00:46:17,085 --> 00:46:18,153

Could it be those rats?
730
00:47:00,065 --> 00:47:01,116
Who?
731
00:47:02,065 --> 00:47:03,870
There were some loan sharks...
732
00:47:04,095 --> 00:47:06,163
who called Lady Yoo Wol scum...
733
00:47:06,164 --> 00:47:07,531
and made a scene.
734
00:47:11,705 --> 00:47:13,683
- "Scum"? - Yes.
735
00:47:14,175 --> 00:47:16,348
Gosh, who calls who scum?
736
00:47:16,874 --> 00:47:18,444
They accused her...
737
00:47:18,445 --> 00:47:21,607
of seducing her master to get a better life.
738
00:47:32,455 --> 00:47:33,485
Boss.
739
00:47:34,494 --> 00:47:35,922
You should calm down.
740
00:47:36,364 --> 00:47:39,965
My goodness. I should not have told you.
741
00:47:40,605 --> 00:47:41,757
Darn it.
742
00:47:51,175 --> 00:47:52,949
Find the stabbed man.
743
00:47:54,114 --> 00:47:55,747
I will.
744
00:47:58,154 --> 00:47:59,308
Well...
745
00:48:01,255 --> 00:48:02,581
My goodness.
746
00:48:22,005 --> 00:48:23,025
Sleep some more.
747
00:48:23,144 --> 00:48:24,808
I slept enough.
748
00:48:26,644 --> 00:48:28,318
Is that hand...
749
00:48:29,285 --> 00:48:30,916
Do not be surprised.
750
00:48:31,255 --> 00:48:32,846
This is nothing.
751
00:48:36,555 --> 00:48:37,554
Serving deity, I am transformed to follow the divine will.
752
00:48:37,555 --> 00:48:38,554
Eternally not forgetting, I become aware of all.
753
00:48:38,555 --> 00:48:40,163
Serving deity, I am transformed to follow the divine will.
754
00:48:40,164 --> 00:48:41,797
Eternally not forgetting, I become aware of all.
755
00:48:42,424 --> 00:48:43,444
By the way, Mother...
756
00:48:44,194 --> 00:48:45,286
Yes?
757
00:48:47,964 --> 00:48:50,004
How about you step down from your position...
758
00:48:51,505 --> 00:48:52,932
as the manager?
759
00:48:55,444 --> 00:48:58,301
The Jipgangso looks pretty stable now.
760
00:49:00,214 --> 00:49:01,979
What do you mean?
761
00:49:02,545 --> 00:49:04,683
What is wrong with it?
762
00:49:04,684 --> 00:49:06,214
That is not what I mean.
763
00:49:08,654 --> 00:49:10,953
Stop looking for trouble.
764
00:49:10,954 --> 00:49:12,453
Let us go...
765
00:49:14,394 --> 00:49:17,454
to the mountains and do farming there.
766
00:49:20,035 --> 00:49:21,840
I know how to use a hoe now.
767
00:49:24,075 --> 00:49:26,829
I know that you are upset.
768
00:49:27,845 --> 00:49:30,425
But still, you should not say such a thing.
769
00:49:32,845 --> 00:49:34,680
Why not?
770
00:49:35,315 --> 00:49:37,497
- Do you really not know? - No, I do not.
771
00:49:38,815 --> 00:49:40,181
Who helped us...
772
00:49:40,624 --> 00:49:43,959
to be treated like human beings?
773
00:49:46,224 --> 00:49:48,468
It is all thanks to the general and the loyal army.
774
00:49:49,724 --> 00:49:51,193
So stop talking nonsense.
775
00:49:51,634 --> 00:49:52,818
But Mother, I...
776
00:50:00,374 --> 00:50:03,199
You see...
777
00:50:07,285 --> 00:50:08,540
I have done more than enough.
778
00:50:19,055 --> 00:50:20,350
I truly have.
779
00:50:21,565 --> 00:50:22,616
Goodness.
780
00:50:34,444 --> 00:50:37,097
It is only a matter of time until the Japanese take over.
781
00:50:37,815 --> 00:50:40,844
All the ones I had trusted did nothing but watch.
782
00:50:43,214 --> 00:50:44,582
Now,
783
00:50:45,815 --> 00:50:48,538
I just want to live happily with you.
784
00:50:52,355 --> 00:50:56,343
So why are you saying that? Gosh.
785
00:51:11,775 --> 00:51:12,866
You brat.
786
00:51:14,345 --> 00:51:15,435
I know...
787
00:51:16,345 --> 00:51:19,619
that you will not be able to do that even if I pushed you.
788
00:51:21,184 --> 00:51:22,817
I know you well.
789
00:51:45,045 --> 00:51:46,472
It has been a long time.
790
00:51:48,485 --> 00:51:50,015
Why are you here?
791
00:51:50,555 --> 00:51:52,451
I am here to see Lord Hwang.
792
00:51:53,085 --> 00:51:54,206
Is he in?
793
00:51:57,194 --> 00:51:58,888
Did Jeon Bong Jun send you?
794
00:52:00,364 --> 00:52:02,710
Did he tell you to return to Gobu and coerce the aristocrats?
795
00:52:04,235 --> 00:52:06,713
I am no longer a part of Donghak.
796
00:52:06,934 --> 00:52:08,332
I was expelled.
797
00:52:11,605 --> 00:52:13,744
You have been disposed of.
798
00:52:13,745 --> 00:52:15,844
(Dispose of: To use for one's benefit and then get rid of)
799
00:52:15,845 --> 00:52:19,140
The Donghak followers are different from the aristocrats.
800
00:52:20,545 --> 00:52:23,441
I got expelled because I did something wrong.
801
00:52:30,424 --> 00:52:32,229
Tell me why you are here.
802
00:52:32,954 --> 00:52:34,423
Tell the aristocrats...
803
00:52:35,565 --> 00:52:38,757
to get along with the Jipgangso.
804
00:52:39,694 --> 00:52:41,948
If you need to help them, do so.
805
00:52:42,265 --> 00:52:44,825
I thought you were no longer a Donghak member.
806
00:52:47,704 --> 00:52:49,989
My mother is involved in it.
807
00:52:51,275 --> 00:52:53,181
They say that converts are the most zealous.
808
00:52:57,285 --> 00:52:58,580
How about you try...
809
00:52:58,815 --> 00:53:01,028
to dissuade her instead?
810
00:53:01,285 --> 00:53:02,683
Tell her to quit doing meaningless work...
811
00:53:02,684 --> 00:53:05,072
and to focus on finding a way to survive.
812
00:53:05,924 --> 00:53:07,863
Is the Jipgangso meaningless?
813
00:53:08,095 --> 00:53:09,123
That is right.
814
00:53:09,124 --> 00:53:10,223
Thanks to the Reform Bill, the people have become...
815
00:53:10,224 --> 00:53:11,963
deities themselves.
816
00:53:11,964 --> 00:53:13,667
You better not say such a thing.
817
00:53:27,944 --> 00:53:30,157
I did give you a warning.
818
00:53:31,355 --> 00:53:33,455
You must know well.
819
00:53:45,335 --> 00:53:47,273
Were the people truly deities?
820
00:53:49,404 --> 00:53:50,730
That is nothing short of a delusion.
821
00:53:51,835 --> 00:53:53,804
If there is the sky, then there is the ground.
822
00:53:53,805 --> 00:53:55,987
If there is a high-class individual, there is also one of a low class.
823
00:53:56,005 --> 00:53:58,320
There are those who are precious and those who are not.
824
00:53:58,374 --> 00:53:59,700
If there is superiority,
825
00:54:00,745 --> 00:54:02,520
there is also inferiority.
826
00:54:09,884 --> 00:54:13,015
Do you think the skies alone make up this world?
827
00:54:14,964 --> 00:54:16,291
Of course not.
828
00:54:21,035 --> 00:54:24,166
Then the ground is just as precious as the skies.
829
00:54:25,735 --> 00:54:26,834
So those who are of a low class are...
830
00:54:26,835 --> 00:54:28,783
just as precious as those who are not.
831
00:54:31,974 --> 00:54:34,697
Those who are of a low class are just as precious.
832
00:54:36,144 --> 00:54:37,480
Those who are not successful...
833
00:54:39,184 --> 00:54:40,524
are just as precious as those who are.
834
00:54:40,525 --> 00:54:42,626
Everyone is precious.
835
00:54:43,384 --> 00:54:44,854
That is why we are all deities.
836
00:55:06,414 --> 00:55:07,740
I have a question.
837
00:55:09,515 --> 00:55:11,183
I am planning to hold a ritual...
838
00:55:11,184 --> 00:55:13,052
for those who have died in Yi Hyun's hands.
839
00:55:13,924 --> 00:55:14,953
Was he...
840
00:55:14,954 --> 00:55:16,719
(A Buddhist ritual intended to send the spirits to paradise.)
841
00:55:17,085 --> 00:55:18,961
also one of them?
842
00:55:25,335 --> 00:55:28,630
(Kim Hak Soo, born in 1878)
843
00:55:32,075 --> 00:55:34,900
The one who demanded the forced marriage left this.
844
00:55:42,745 --> 00:55:44,213
Was he really...
845
00:55:46,414 --> 00:55:47,782
this young?
846
00:55:48,585 --> 00:55:49,645
Yes.
847
00:55:50,724 --> 00:55:53,274
He was the youngest loyal soldier.
848
00:55:59,364 --> 00:56:00,455
Thank you.
849
00:56:16,485 --> 00:56:18,493
(Headquarters of Jipgangso, Jeonju)
850
00:56:18,985 --> 00:56:20,862
As soon as they evacuate,
851
00:56:21,924 --> 00:56:23,148
let us raise the army.
852
00:56:24,295 --> 00:56:27,994
Do you think we can win against the Japanese forces?
853
00:56:27,995 --> 00:56:30,167
There is only one way to win.
854
00:56:31,065 --> 00:56:32,186
What is that?
855
00:56:33,265 --> 00:56:34,356
An alliance.
856
00:56:34,765 --> 00:56:36,192
We need everyone...
857
00:56:36,664 --> 00:56:39,123
who is against the Japanese invasion to join hands.
858
00:56:45,114 --> 00:56:46,981
Let us gather.
859
00:56:53,315 --> 00:56:54,711
What is with your faces?
860
00:56:55,124 --> 00:56:56,409
How will you fulfill your duties?
861
00:56:58,654 --> 00:56:59,980
Did we receive an order?
862
00:57:01,325 --> 00:57:03,466
Are we going to Hanyang?
863
00:57:05,065 --> 00:57:06,186
We are going to Chungcheong Province...
864
00:57:06,995 --> 00:57:08,064
to meet the bukjeobs.
865
00:57:08,065 --> 00:57:11,032
(Bukjeobs: A Donghak organization in Chuncheong Province)
866
00:57:11,605 --> 00:57:13,774
(Headquarters of Jipgangso)
867
00:57:13,775 --> 00:57:14,826
Let us go.
868
00:57:18,015 --> 00:57:21,003
Go to Namwon and convince Gae Nam.
869
00:57:22,444 --> 00:57:23,567
What is this?
870
00:57:24,114 --> 00:57:27,276
It is a secret letter from the King, ordering to raise an army.
871
00:57:43,964 --> 00:57:45,842
I have not seen you in a while.
872
00:57:46,204 --> 00:57:47,499
How have you been?
873
00:57:47,575 --> 00:57:49,604
On behalf of my father, I went to Hanyang...
874
00:57:49,605 --> 00:57:51,443
and opened up a temporary Peddler's Inn...
875
00:57:51,444 --> 00:57:52,873
for the peddlers of Jeolla Province.
876
00:57:53,914 --> 00:57:56,292
You are quite the persistent one.
877
00:57:56,944 --> 00:57:58,647
It was not a hard task...
878
00:57:59,214 --> 00:58:01,153
for a private messenger of Her Highness.
879
00:58:01,154 --> 00:58:02,554
(Private messenger: A person who can freely enter the palace)
880
00:58:02,555 --> 00:58:05,247
Thanks to that, I had to agree on handing over our rice...
881
00:58:06,124 --> 00:58:09,593
to the disguised organization run by the Empire of Japan Legation.
882
00:58:11,164 --> 00:58:12,388
Go on.
883
00:58:14,404 --> 00:58:16,884
The Japanese are planning to use the peddlers...
884
00:58:17,035 --> 00:58:19,176
for the civilians in their army.
885
00:58:19,605 --> 00:58:22,256
I, too, have received orders to gather the peddlers...
886
00:58:22,545 --> 00:58:24,860
and send them to Chuncheong Province.
887
00:58:26,015 --> 00:58:27,442
What is it that you want to say?
888
00:58:30,085 --> 00:58:32,094
I know you have received a secret letter from the King.
889
00:58:33,985 --> 00:58:35,005
And?
890
00:58:35,654 --> 00:58:37,429
If you decide to raise an army,
891
00:58:38,095 --> 00:58:40,033
I will hand over all the rice...
892
00:58:40,964 --> 00:58:42,453
and the peddlers of Jeolla Province...
893
00:58:44,335 --> 00:58:45,895
to you.
894
00:58:59,845 --> 00:59:01,824
(The Nokdu Flower)
895
00:59:01,845 --> 00:59:03,183
You do not believe me.
896
00:59:03,184 --> 00:59:05,113
I am looking for a reason to believe you.
897
00:59:05,114 --> 00:59:08,623
That is the best you can do.
898
00:59:08,624 --> 00:59:11,794
If we keep pushing, we can reach the mainland.
899
00:59:11,795 --> 00:59:13,623
I do not ask for soldiers.
900
00:59:13,624 --> 00:59:14,923
Just provide the weapons.
901
00:59:14,924 --> 00:59:18,294
If you do not take her away, something will happen to her.
902
00:59:18,295 --> 00:59:19,866
I hope it is not true.
903
00:59:19,964 --> 00:59:22,604
I do not want to burn the Baek family's house down myself.
904
00:59:22,605 --> 00:59:24,933
The woman who was forced to marry killed herself.
905
00:59:24,934 --> 00:59:26,203
Your mouth...
906
00:59:26,204 --> 00:59:27,804
Will you shut your mouth?
907
00:59:27,805 --> 00:59:29,873
I wish to see for myself if he really...
908
00:59:29,874 --> 00:59:31,578
does not want to fight.
