(Episode 1)

- Get her! - Will you just come?

- What are you doing? - Why are you running?

We need to hurry. She's dead when I get her.

Enough is enough!

Stop right there!

Where are you going?

Just a little more. Come.

What's wrong with her?

Get her!

Darn it.

Were you the Dragon King's daughter?

Why do you always end up here?

You've been chasing me for eight years.

Can't you just let it go, for my sake?

I'll pay you on time starting next month.

Forget it. When will you...

pay off your debt and make me a chairman?

Start working right now.

The girls will be getting ready right about now.

- Can you drink? - What?

Start today.

Wait, wait.

Someone fell off the Yongwang-ri dock.

Get here quick. Her name's Sim Chung Yi.

Hey!

Hey!

Don't just stand there! Fish her out!

I almost drowned as a kid and fear water. Sorry, boss.

I'm allergic to salt. It's the sodium.

What? Do you two want to take me on?

I'm not lying.

Darn it.

- Go! - Yes, boss.

"Die to live and live to die." That's my motto.

My leg.

Why is it so beautiful?

It's not fair.

(Year 1998)

Jo Hong Joo.

Hong Joo, come over here.

I told you not to touch that drawing.

I just looked at it.

I didn't touch it. I really just looked at it.

What is it? What did she do wrong?

- Dad. - Hey.

She touched that drawing again.

What?

How dare you?

I'll scold her. Leave it to me.

Hong Joo, come with me.

Oh, come on.

Those two frauds.

When did they grow so big?

They were just babies last time.

Right? They grew up, just like you.

Daddy made a paint with this.

I'll show it to you later.

Is the paint the same color as the drawing?

Yes.

I want to make it too.

Of course. We'll make more paint together.

Dad.

These leaves must be sick.

What?

This, this, and this are darker.

They all look the same to me.

It must be something only you see.

Because your eyes are special.

Are my eyes that special?

You bet.

What's this? Right here.

I found a jewel in your eye.

There's another one here.

Here they are.

Here you go.

Ma Poong Do!

Will you stop playing? It's been four hours.

Who do you take after?

Don't you hear me?

Gwi Nyeo won't stop crying because of you!

Hey!

Poong Do, what is it this time?

Will you stop?

Where were you all this while?

We might all have to check into a psych ward.

Don't you hear me?

Talk like the human being you are.

That's enough.

He's just a kid.

How long will you put up with that spoiled kid?

Does he look spoiled to you?

Who do you think did that to him?

Don't you hear him crying...

because he misses his mother?

Did I tell her to cheat?

Did I tell her to leave her son behind?

I'll take Poong Do and go back to her.

I'll get him his mom back...

and will return things to normal.

What about the Goryeo project?

Will you give that up forever?

We dropped that eight years ago. You know that.

You all did so well. Especially Ji Hwan.

I didn't imagine that you'd travel so far just to...

get those seeds.

You're a historian reincarnated.

We have a long way to go.

We must reproduce the colors of the "Portrait of a Beauty".

Joobo Group's future is in your hands,

and I got you all a gift.

"MJS"?

Does this mean Ma Sung Jae, Jo Ji Hwan, Seo Pil Doo?

If my mother sent you, you can stop.

You tried long and hard enough.

Weren't we like brothers, sir?

I don't know. Who says "sir" to a younger brother?

Can you please leave?

What's that?

I think it's for Director Ma.

- I'll give it to him. - Okay.

Jo Ji Hwan.

(Joobo Group)

(Research Lab)

Pil Doo. Seo Pil Doo.

What did he say?

Will he go to France tomorrow?

- Why are you so surprised? - How's the chairman?

Her temper gets the better of her.

Why is my brother acting up?

Do you know something?

Not really.

I should find out.

I'll go to the temple...

and get the monk's final confirmation.

I'll gather some herbs on the way as well.

Will you be all right?

Whenever I think of the people who tried to hurt you before,

I get scared.

Don't worry.

Hong Joo will be going to school next year.

I want to let her know that there are...

many good friends out there other than animals and insects.

We'll be fine.

Even if no one trusts me,

I know one person will.

One person.

According to the gardener, he left early in the morning.

He could have gotten on the plane to Paris twice and some more.

Tell Mr. Seo to come.

Does she think Seo Pil Doo is a cure-all?

I'm busy. Keep it short.

Send it to me now.

(Hospital Bill: 1,294.08 dollars)

Goodness, why is the hospital bill so expensive for a kid?

I think the calculations are wrong.

Are you Mr. Sim Hak Gyu?

- Patient Yeo Ji Na's guardian? - Yes.

There is no difference between a kid and an adult.

- Next, please. - One second.

Can you give me a discount?

How about some discount?

This isn't some marketplace.

Next, please.

Customer 503, please come to window 3.

The woman's face, hands, and upper body parts...

can be seen in the middle of the canvas.

You can see how different touches were used.

This is a technique that adds delicate and dreamlike aspects.

There are not many portraits which were drawn in the Goryeo times...

that are left to this day.

As there are almost no female portraits,

the "Portrait of a Beauty" is deemed very high in its value.

If I'm an artist, I should at least leave something like that behind.

Why am I working as a painter, barely making any money?

Someone saw you take out my abalone porridge container.

Who?

Who saw it?

Come on out.

I don't know who you are, but I will poke your eyes out.

I will pray to the Dragon King...

and make you all rot in here until you die.

Just you wait.

I will bring talismans tomorrow and put one up on each of your beds.

Remember that.

Goodness, you are an awful shaman.

What are you trying to do?

Hey, if you are that good,

why is your daughter sick?

Does your Dragon King not care about her?

You! Are you picking a fight?

My gosh, what's with you?

Stop it. What is wrong with you?

- What are you doing? - Goodness!

Let go of her.

- My goodness. - No.

Mom! Stop!

Let go of me. I will get that woman.

- My goodness. - Let go of me!

Enough is enough!

Aren't you ashamed to do that in front of Ji Na?

If you can't help, you shouldn't step in.

Are you her husband?

Do you have to do that in front of your sick child?

Why did you eat her food?

Abalone porridge doesn't even cost that much.

I felt bad how Ji Na couldn't swallow...

the awful hospital food.

That poor child cannot even go to the bathroom well,

and she's dying as her face is turning yellow.

What were you doing?

Would you sit around like this...

if she was your real daughter?

What do you mean?

She's a girl that your wife had with her ex-husband.

Naturally, you wouldn't care about her. She's just a stranger.

Bang Deok Hee! Are you serious?

You'll make me really sad if you say that.

I never thought of her as a stranger. I swear.

Don't just say that. Bring me money!

I don't care if you go out and steal.

Go get me money!

You'll get on the plane to go meet your mom.

You'll meet her and make new friends too.

(You have a new call.)

This is a number from the Gangwon Province.

Hello?

Is this Ma Sung Jae's phone?

Is that you? Sung Jae, it's you, isn't it?

Goodness.

Even if I went out to paint a few roofs,

we can barely make a living, that's all.

I don't care if you go out and steal.

Go get me money!

Stealing isn't easy either, Deok Hee!

Darn it. Why can't I even find a mushroom?

Jackpot!

Wait, one of those will definitely cover Ji Na's hospital bill.

Goodness.

What's wrong, Hong Joo?

I think someone is watching us.

Who? Since when?

They were there since we got back picking flower petals.

I don't see them anymore.

Goodness, you are going through so much trouble, Poong Do.

- I'll bring you some tissue. - Excuse me.

Oh, thank you.

Your child must be terribly carsick.

Yes. By any chance, do you know where Gangnyeong Temple is?

It's my first time here, so I'm a little lost.

Gangnyeong Temple?

Keep going down this road and take a left at the fork.

Why are you going to Gangnyeong Temple?

I'm sorry.

Someone that I always wanted to meet is there.

Someone I've been looking even in my dreams.

Are you Ma Sung Jae?

It's you, isn't it?

Yes, how do you know me?

Mom, whose car is this?

- Wow, it looks so cool. - Hong Joo.

Who is he? Is he your friend?

Who is he?

Goodness, Poong Do.

Poong Do.

You became a success, Ji Hwan.

He took the ink and the painting.

How did you know I was Ma Sung Jae?

I'd heard so much about you that I just knew.

And that wristwatch.

Does Ji Hwan still have his?

He must be sick of it.

He always said that...

one person in the world would believe him.

I think that belief kept him going.

Hey, you.

Jo Hong Joo.

Don't talk like that to him.

He's really nasty.

He's the one who threw up on me,

and turned mean just because I looked at that.

Poong Do, try to get along with your friend.

Sorry I don't have anything else.

The sun's warm. Your clothes will dry soon.

And I'll scold that kid for you.

Sorry, Poong Do. I shipped our things first.

Can you wait here for a bit?

I'll go and get a friend.

There are lots of rocks on the mountain.

The road will be really bumpy and you'll throw up again.

Where am I?

Is this paradise or the inferno?

You're awake at last.

You could've gotten into trouble if I hadn't found you.

The venom will spread soon.

The bite's not deep.

I don't think it was a venomous spider.

Oh, dear.

Thank you so much. You saved my life.

This is...

I'm sorry this is ruined.

It looks rare too.

My daughter made it for me.

If I say I used it to save someone, she'll be proud of me.

Gosh,

whoever that is, she's a good girl.

Isn't she pretty?

Gosh, she looks so smart.

She'll become a great person.

Yes, she is quite smart.

The sun will set soon.

Can you stand up?

Gangnyeong Temple is nearby.

You should spend the night there.

I know the temple well.

That's where I was headed.

I think your ankle's badly sprained.

Get on my back.

My daughter likes to be carried around.

I'm used to it.

Carry this for me.

- No, I... - Come on, get on.

Let's get going.

A bird pooped on you, neener, neener

A bird pooped on you

Hey, don't.

Mom. Mom!

He threw a rock this big at me.

He won't talk to me. He's always angry.

Poong Do has a broken heart.

That's why he doesn't talk much.

Why was his heart broken?

I don't really know why either.

If you listen to him carefully,

perhaps you can find out.

How can I listen if he won't talk?

(Toilet)

Hey, what are you doing there?

What are you doing?

That...

I found it.

You're thanking me inside, aren't you?

"I'm so grateful that Hong Joo found my kaleidoscope."

What were you doing earlier?

Were you pooping?

Hong Joo, you troublemaker.

Why did you get him wet too?

What if you two both drowned?

What is it, Poong Do?

He's telling you not to scold me.

"Don't scold Hong Joo."

"She's a good girl."

Right? Isn't that right?

See? I'm right.

I can hear everything he says.

I hope you don't suffer on my account.

I'll be fine.

You're a bit heavier than you look.

I may look frail, but I'm quite hefty.

I see.

You saved my life and I don't even know your name.

I'm Sim Hak Gyu.

As in the father of Sim Chung from the fairy tale?

- 300 sacks of rice? - What?

Yes, 300 sacks of rice.

I'm that Sim Hak Gyu.

I'm also a useless dad who...

can't care for his daughter.

Ji Pal.

Jo Ji Pal!

- Get some rest. - Okay.

Wait, your bag.

This looks really familiar.

As there are almost no female portraits,

the "Portrait of a Beauty" is deemed very high in its value.

The Goryeo masterpiece?

Ji Hwan.

I'm sorry.

Were you very worried?

Why did you take so long to show up when you knew that?

Why?

What's their story?

What if they don't treat her well because we don't have any money?

What will you bring me if I just sit here waiting?

Fine!

I'll bring you some money even if it means to sell my body!

So you're rich, aren't you?

Darn this dirty world.

Seo Pil Doo, that jerk. It was just as I thought.

How can he call me his brother?

You should call the police and tell the company too.

Not yet.

It might put the chairman in danger too.

You should have called me immediately.

You should have reached out.

No, Seo Pil Doo wouldn't have just sat around.

Who would have thought he could frame me...

as the thief of the "Portrait of a Beauty"?

So did you wait eight years just to make me believe you?

I wanted to show you something that is sure.

Let us not give him any way around this,

but get prepared thoroughly and force our way in there.

My wife is going to want to kill me.

If that painting is from the Goryeo times, how much is it worth?

You two would have a great life without that painting anyway.

My daughter made it for me.

If I say I used it to save someone, she'll be proud of me.

Sim Hak Gyu.

What have I done?

You.

What are you doing to his car?

Hey! Look at that guy.

Stop right there!

Hey!

You!

Hey.

Let's go to your place in the morning.

We can all move together.

Sure. I'm sure Poong Do is a big boy now.

Did you see my Hong Joo?

She has very special eyes.

I'm sure you and her will speak the same language.

Really?

Goodness, life can be pretty tough if you are that talented.

All right.

What's wrong?

The painting is gone.

The "Portrait of a Beauty" is gone.

Aren't my friends pretty?

They all have different colors.

Well, to me, at least.

There's no such thing as same colors in this world.

I have a lot of friends,

but they all cannot speak just like you.

All the grasshoppers, frogs, and fireflies.

But still, it's okay. We're all friends.

I can see how they are even if they don't talk.

I can tell if they are sad or happy.

So you don't have to worry about anything.

I will listen to everything you have to say.

You're sleepy right now.

Do you want to go back?

Really? May I really keep this?

Thanks, Poong Do. Thank you so much.

Is Mom asleep already?

Wait here. I'll bring a flashlight.

Mom?

(Blessing of the Sea)

Are you Jo Ji Hwan?

Your house is on fire. You need to go immediately.

Dad!

Dad!

Mom.

Mom!

Two people died last night.

He died because of this painting?

Because of me?

You killed Sung Jae! You killed him!

There is a person here. Over here.

What's going on?

She's still breathing.

It's the Dragon King's blessing.
