MOON LOVERS: SCARLET HEART RYEO

THIS SHOW IS A WORK OF FICTION BASED ON HISTORIC EVENTS.

Don't push me away. Don't tell me to leave.

Don't say your unhappy because of me. Don't call me a monster.

You especially can't do that.

You...

are mine.

I'm not yours.

You're mine. I said you belong to me!

Without my permission...

you can't leave me

nor can you die.

You are completely mine.

Su?

No way.

You've seen it wrong.

She can't leave the palace.

No way.

EPISODE 10

It's her, I'm sure.

You can check the door keeper.

No court lady can leave the palace!

Do you think So would care? He must just dragged her out.

Only Su will get punished.

Let's go find her. Give me a horse and men...

- Go back to the palace. - What?

It's not good for you either that they find you sneaking out.

Just go back. I will find her.

I appreciate your thoughtfulness, but I can't just go like this.

If they find out about Su...

you really don't know what will happen to her.

Let's find her together.

OK.

I treated you like a child.

I'm sorry.

I trust you.

You listen to me carefully. Even though we're married...

I can't admit that you're my wife.

So we'll leave the way we've been before.

Don't ever try to nag me, OK?

Please answer my question!

It makes me infuriated.

I'm already married to you.

I'll follow you because our marriage is based on friendship, it will prosper.

What...

language is that?

How would I like you when you seldom talk and only do in hard languages?

I like to use a big part of the bed.

You told me to hold it until first snow comes.

Haesu.

You're such a terrible liar.

You and I are not safe anymore.

Then should we just run away? If you want, I can do that.

Whenever I have to leave Songak, I wanted to show you here before.

I was always pushed away.

I still don't know why I had to leave.

I didn't make anyone unhappy. I didn't harm any animal.

I didn't use swords easily on people.

But I still have to leave?

I hope you can live with no pressure.

I hope you can live without having to see blood or unfairness...

outside of the palace.

If you go with me.

I'm a court lady. I have to live in the palace.

Then I won't leave either.

And I...

have someone special in my heart.

Is it Baeka?

No, it's not him.

Then it's fine. As long as it's not Baeka.

If it's others, I can kill him.

What?

I said you were mine when you were beaten by Yeonhwa.

Since then, you're mine.

You looked at me as myself. You didn't need any explanation.

You said you're scared of me. I don't trust that.

Because you're my only friend.

So I'm not sorry for anything. Even kissing...

or dragging you out here, and...

threatening you not to love any other guy.

Here.

I wanted to give you something like this.

I just wanted to help you.

I didn't ask for your love.

Try to run away from me, then.

You can throw it away if you don't want it.

Su!

Su!

How did you find us here? The palace already knows about me?

Thankfully it's just me and Uk, but they'll find out soon.

Let's go.

Come on.

What are you doing?

I'll take her back, since I took her out.

People will gossip if they see you together. That's an even bigger problem.

Su.

The Emperor has given her to me already.

It's right that I take care of her.

He gave her to me.

I'll go with the Fourth Prince.

Don't worry, please go back.

He'll take care of me. I think we can do that.

You'll go with the Fourth?

Yes.

You'll keep your word. Don't ever let her get hurt.

I wouldn't want that either.

You can't just let them go. What if he's not going to the palace?

Then I won't just sit and watch.

What?

This is the only time I'm letting them go together.

Court Lady Oh. I...

I just took her out. Don't blame her.

You went out of the palace?

The Emperor ordered her to take care of me. We had to go out.

Still, taking a court lady out will be seen as a challenge to the Emperor.

So are you going to punish her?

- Do you have to? - Please go back, Prince.

She'll have to make more excuses if you're spotted here.

I trust you.

I'm sure your thoughtless kindness has shaken the Fourth Prince's heart.

This is why you don't fit in here. You can't be kind to anyone here.

You need to be careful each and every step.

That's the only way you survive.

I...

What should I do now?

You have to wait until his feelings go away.

Bull's-eye!

Bull's-eye!

Bull's-eye!

What a surprise. Seeing you miss the target.

These days make me practice more.

I think of someone when I see the target.

The one who became a hero instead of me.

If I see his face there, I aim as if my arrow goes through his heart.

I never miss it.

Bull's-eye!

What about you? Who's your target?

I've never...

imagined someone when I shoot.

Someone like you with lack of purpose is easily swayed.

I'm leaving Songak soon. Father is sending me far away. I'll survive.

You'll be fine.

Of course.

I'll come back with great condition. So you think it through while I'm gone.

Who'd be fun to be your target?

You and I are getting along pretty well surprisingly.

I'll be back soon. You better calculate well until then.

I'll wait for your comeback.

Let's go.

Who's there?

Hello.

What are doing here?

Who ordered you to follow me? Who are you?

I'm just here to play the music for the dance, not following you.

Really?

And you followed me first. Did you forget already?

I didn't know you play the music for the gisaeng school.

I have nothing I can't do well, but there are more I'm great at.

I didn't know you're here to be gisaeng. Your talk sounded like a loyal lady.

Whatever you are, just do your job.

Don't ever judge people like that. It's a bad habit.

Let's tell names as it's our third time meeting.

What is your name?

Boksoon.

Woohee, let's go back to our rooms.

OK.

Boksoon?

What a trick.

Woohee. Your name is Woohee.

Are you not upset?

I just saw the sunrise with the Fourth Prince. That's it.

I said I'll go with him so you're not affected.

I'm not upset.

I'm just sad.

I've always had you in Damiwon as I'm only calculating and thinking.

But So just took you out at once.

I'll ask the Emperor for permission to marry you.

Marry?

When I heard you've disappeared,

it reminded me when you entered the palace.

I was so afraid that I might lose you again.

I won't repeat that mistake again.

As Lady Hae said, my nights were never restful.

Because of the pressure of the expectation and future

I felt guilty to sleep well.

But then it was you who showed me smiles and light jokes,

and poems.

It was you.

I want to go back home with you and live happily.

I want to repay Lady Hae by giving all my love to you. Su...

Would you be my half?

He's not going to change or hurt me.

I can be happy with him.

If Gwangjong kills him...

Do you not like me anymore?

No, it's not that.

Then, you can't trust my promise?

No...

Then will you answer me?

Will you marry me?

What are you doing?

It was you who sneaked in when the Princes were bathing.

I'm so sorry.

I'll explain everything.

Who would be killed first if this secret meeting is revealed?

I'll close down this place.

Anyone having an affair with a court lady will be punished.

Let's go.

- You, leave the palace with me. - What?

Doctor Tae ordered me to go out to take care of my health.

Come with me to my hometown.

I've been watching you and Prince Uk.

The only answer is to avoid it.

The Eighth Prince asked me...

to marry him. And I'm going to.

Think of the Fourth Prince! You can't survive between them.

If anyone changes his mind you'll die in your early age.

The Eighth Prince is different. He won't ever change.

No, the palace can make anyone break their promises.

The person I loved...

Yes, as you assumed, it's the Emperor.

He wanted to marry me once but to keep his position...

he had to forget about the poor girl. But I still wanted to be with him.

And I decided to live as a court lady, not a woman.

I boiled tea for him, washed his hair and changed his cloths.

I call my lover as Your Majesty, and cleaned ladies' bodies for him.

Su, think ahead. If you don't escape now, you'll be miserable, too.

The Prince said...

we'll leave the palace to live in Hwangju. We can be happy as long as we stay low.

I trust him.

How is it going keeping the Emperor and the Fourth Prince apart?

We have to let the Emperor think Fourth Prince is the enemy or the Crown Prince.

If you pretend you're giving the Fourth Prince power,

I'll take care of the rest.

I gave the Crown Prince's uncle's debt document to the Fourth Prince.

The Crown Prince will be suspicious of him if he finds that paper.

You will meet up with Wang Sikryum. Everything is perfect.

I'll get ready too.

I'm just here to see if you're OK.

I'll tell Court Lady Oh so you can rest today.

Prince.

Please come to the make-up room. I'll help you.

Anyone will cherish the person

who's next to him and cheering when he's suffering.

It's easy to think that person is the only one on the same side.

You call that person as a "friend".

Friendship and relationships can be confusing.

But they're different.

I'm worried that you're confused about those differences.

I'm worried about you.

And I don't make friends that easily.

Friendship or relationship, they're all same to me.

I only have one.

I know you're trying to push me away but it's not working for me.

I told you to brace yourself.

Don't worry.

I won't do it again without your permission.

What did you just say?

At the festival, I'll ask the Emperor to allow Haesu and me to get married.

If Su leaves the palace we'll leave in Hwangju together.

I know what you expect of me, but I'm not interested becoming an Emperor.

I'm just sick of politics.

I just want to live freely.

You'll give up the Emperor's seat, abandon Mother and me...

to just live as a husband? Then who'll protect our family?

There are many way to protect us without becoming the Emperor.

Trust me.

Have I ever stopped your wish?

If you know what you want do it as you wish.

But you'll have to brace yourself as it won't be an easy way.

Su will appreciate you, too.

You should stop him. You should say no!

I sometimes get sick of politics, too. I'm sure he was as well.

Your brother's burden is a lot heavier than you think.

Let him do what he wants.

You were framed that you caused the

Emperor's favorite court lady's miscarriage

and kicked out of palace only ten years ago.

No one was on our side even though we knew it was the Empress.

Shinju Kang, Myunchun Park Uisung Hong, Gwangju Wang.

These families will attack us any time if we're not the Emperor.

The Emperor and the Crown Prince are different and the country has changed.

Don't look at this too extremely.

I think it's my time to leave your wings.

Yeonhwa.

I'll change my goal from now on.

I won't be a daughter or a sister of Emperor, I'll be the King of Emperor.

You don't have to forgive me.

Your Highness, Princess Yeonhwa is here.

Princess Yeonhwa?

You asked me to come if I have any fun stories.

I'd like you to hear this today.

Is that so?

I must listen if you insist this much.

I can't wait.

Su!

One, two, three. You're getting good at this.

With all those finger flicks any dummy could learn.

One, two, three! I got you.

You can hit hard.

I'll can get arrested for hitting a prince.

You surprised me more when you're kidnapped by Fourth Prince.

Where the heck did you take you?

He just rode with me. It was so much fun.

He's out of control these days. I don't like it.

Please try to understand him.

You're well-loved by the Empress.

But he wasn't. He has no close family.

You have to work hard to be loved.

Since he came up, Mother and Brother Yo have changed a lot.

Don't tell me you're blaming him for that.

It's not only because of him, but...

if it wasn't him, I wouldn't have known Mother and Brother Yo's intention.

Su.

I miss our old days, when we were all good together.

You looked prettiest when you smiled at Uk's house.

I think of that, too.

I want to go back.

Why are you going to the Crown Prince's family house?

I have some business to do. Don't tell the Crown Prince.

OK, by the way...

is it true that you took Su out of the palace?

Su is a court lady. If you treat her like any girl, you and she will be in danger.

Don't make it complicated.

I didn't mean that.

I have no intention of making it more complicated.

I am just...clumsy at this.

I don't know how to treat people well.

Do I have to be criticized for that?

I didn't know you like Su that much.

Only you and Hasu are my people in this world.

Prince! Prince!

We have a big issue.

Numerous complaints are coming in that

the Crown Prince has collected double taxes.

All of the heads of each village are

asking the Emperor to relinquish his crown.

Did you know about your family's embezzlement?

We have reports that you were there when your family collected the taxes.

I found out later. It was a mistake.

It's not like we planned to rob our people, as you say.

Do not even try to frame us.

We found out later.

You still hold accountability for not catching it earlier.

Your Majesty, all members agree that

we cannot let the immoral family rule our country in the future.

Please reconsider.

Please reconsider.

Then...

who do you want for his seat?

Your Majesty.

Will you dethrone the Crown Prince?

We need to have a plan in order to decide that.

So I'm asking you who'd be the best fit for Goryeo's future.

Your Majesty, we think Fourth Prince will be a good fit.

Fourth Prince?

Wang So?

Since Wang So was adopted to another family,

he won't have a family that will attack.

And through the ritual he is now trusted among people including foreigners.

I see he's the best fit.

I'm so sorry. I didn't know it'd be this complicated.

What are you talking about?

I just told So because I worried about you.

I trusted him that he'll support you.

I just showed your uncle's document to him.

Did Fourth know about my family's issue?

I told him myself, so I'm sure.

But I didn't know he'd threaten your seat from this.

Please forgive me.

It's time for you to go back to Shinju.

Leave after the Ninth.

Do I have to?

People suggested you as the Crown Prince. Your mother and Choonju family.

They're planning to get my seat through you.

I have no connection with them. Why do I have to leave?

A man's heart is cunning. Even if you don't mean it now,

if you have more followers for you, you'll lose the faithfulness you have now.

You're only the shield for the Crown Prince.

You don't even know that your father used you.

So my faithfulness doesn't matter to you.

I want to have you by my side for a long time, but what can we do?

Any challenges should be rooted out before they grow.

That's how it's going in the palace.

Please make sure that girl is handling this.

Yes, Lady.

I've ordered as you told me.

The Empress should not know that I ordered you.

Yes, Princess...

I understand.

Are you still not satisfied after all that?

When will you leave me alone?

Didn't you say you wanted to be the Emperor?

A mother should make her son's wish come true.

Don't worry, if everything goes well, you'll be the Emperor.

Don't say it's for me.

I don't know what you're planning behind, but it won't work as you wish.

The Crown Prince...

he'll die on September Eighth. I've sent the poison cup already.

He loves teas, so he'll drink it.

Did you think I won't do anything?

How will you tell them how you knew about the poison? From Mother?

If I have to, I will.

Sure.

Then I'll just say I was trying to make you an Emperor.

I'll just say, to make you the Emperor,

Choongju and Hojuck family worked

to reveal the Crown Prince's corruption and send poison.

We already made a compact that we'll make you the Emperor.

In this palace, we're eating each other to survive.

If you can stop the Crown Prince's poisoned tea, try it.

Then it'll be your neck that will have a rope tied to it.

It won't go as you wish.

You still don't know after the Emperor kicked you out?

If we just have one court lady killed who delivered that tea,

the Crown Prince will be gone. Then you'll be the Crown Prince.

How could I...

trust you, Mother?

You said it yourself.

You won't kill your brothers even if you become the Emperor.

I trust you.

That's why I'm supporting you.

Why is the Crown Prince's star so weak?

If we meet in any form later,

I won't ever forget my debt to you.

I'll keep our promise from now on.

I'll cherish Haesu.

Please look out for us.

SEPTEMBER 9TH

Drinking together with arms hooked.

Who would Baeka choose this punishment?

The Emperor wasn't picked yet.

Can he be safe again this time?

The one who'll be drinking with me...

will be you.

I'd like to drink with you.

No.

I'm a grown man, I won't do it.

From here, "no"...

is not a word.

Here.

Shall we start again?

First, a wide circle flow is hung up high...

to show its color.

Second, the pure yellow color is the color of soil.

Third, blooming later is the bless of the King.

Fourth, a flow blooming out of frost is strong spirit.

Fifth...

Fifth is...

Fifth.

Flower flowing on drink is the food of gods.

It's written by Jongye, poem "Chrysanthemum."

Good job. Jung, martial arts are good, but focus on study, too.

Yes, Your Majesty.

The Crown Prince seems to have no appetite today.

I'm sorry, but it's hard to drink today.

We'll then bring out some chrysanthemum tea. It's for all our good health.

- Lady Oh, please bring out the tea. - Yes, Princess.

We need to bring out chrysanthemum tea.

OK, hold on.

Can you go for me? I'm getting a cold.

I'm sorry, but Lady Oh told me not to serve the Princes for awhile.

Fine, then.

Are you OK?

Hurry up! We'll be in trouble because you took so long to get ready.

What's that face? Do you think it's because I woke up late?

Look at that bold face.

I greet you, Your Highness.

I said hurry up.

You need to accept her greeting.

What?

If you don't accept, she has to stay like that.

Lift up your head.

I don't want to see you so turn around now.

Yes, Prince.

From now on, always turn around whenever you see me.

I don't feel like going anymore.

You can come or stay.

If you're that sad, you should've become his second wife like I told you.

I can see you like him that much to offer me that chance.

Please take care of him.

Make sure he's not involved in any issue

or hangout with anyone because he's easily swayed.

I'm his wife now. That shouldn't be your concern anymore.

We'll test the tea first for poison.

Your Majesty, I have something to tell the Crown Prince.

You can say now.

Actually...

If we just have one court lady killed who delivered that tea, he'll be gone.

- I've prepared the tea. - Thank you.

So what were you going to say?

Yes.

As I have made you uncomfortable these days,

I'd like to get your three drinks to renew our brotherhood.

Sure.

But I only have tea, not alcohol.

I feel like I'll be drunk only with the tea on a day like today.

Please send this to him.

I'm so sorry.

It's my fault. I had some oil on my hands from food.

Bring the new cup.

First shot is for your longevity.

Second shot is for your hard work for this country...

and to celebrate it.

It wasn't the cup, but the tea.

I'm drinking...

poison from you.

Lastly,

even if anyone tries to part you and me...

I wish our brotherhood

would never change.

Thanks for your faithfulness.

Your Majesty, you've seen him. How can I live apart from him?

Please reconsider your order to send him back to Shinju.

I'll bring more tea, Your Highness.

I will be right back, Your Majesty.

We found poison and valuable things in the court lady Haesu's room.

Arrest Haesu for attempting to poison the Prince.

Why do you lock up the innocent one?

I think he knew who did it.

Who did he try to protect with his life?

I won't just let her go like this. I will find the evidence.

Hang Haesu for poisoning the Prince.

Haesu!
