Episode 30

Chuk Sa Gwang is a woman.

I used to have another name.

Chuk Sa Gwang.

I am going to protect you.

I dread having to live with a sword in my hands.

But if I can be any help to you,

I will fight with you.

So please...

Please...

take this antidote.

Then...

who is this man?

This man seems to be...

Chuk Sa Gwang's brother.

Are you sure?

Then...

Chuk Ga from Goksan is...

He is from the Chuk family.

(Hong Dae Hong)

I think his name was...

Chuk In Gwang.

Yun Rang was Chuk Sa Gwang.

I need to report this immediately.

Your Highness.

Thank you.

Thank you for...

choosing to live.

I can't...

(Prince Jungchang)

die leaving you behind.

Whether I live under the control of Lee Seong Gye...

or Moo Myung,

if I can still see you,

I need to continue living.

No,

even if I fight them...

and end up being killed,

I want to...

give it a try with you.

Let me take him inside.

He stayed in the cold for too long.

Wait.

When that Moo Myung guy appeared,

you didn't seem surprised at all.

What are you imposing?

Also, you led us to this path.

How did they know we'd come this way?

And when His Highness got shot with a poisoned needle,

you shouted for him even before he collapsed.

I don't think you're good enough...

to see a flying needle...

in the middle of the night.

I have no idea what you are talking about. I just...

Yun Rang.

He's been serving me for a long time.

But Your Highness.

It seems rather odd.

I heard General Chuk Joon Gyung was branded as a traitor,

and his family got massacred.

Here.

But one of the sons secretly survived and...

taught his son...

the Goksan Method.

And that's Chuk Sa Gwang's grandfather.

So what happened?

He had two grandchildren.

One was Chuk In Gwang, and the other is Chuk Sa Gwang.

Chuk In Gwang was one good swordsman.

He was originally the successor of the method.

But you said Chuk Sa Gwang was the one who learned it.

It used to be like that, but...

Chuk In Gwang...

ran away from home in the middle of the training to be successful.

What a shame!

So the old man got disheartened,

and he taught his young granddaughter instead.

It turned out she was unbelievably talented.

She got the talent from General Chuk Joon Gyung.

She was like...

My goodness! That girl was that talented?

I didn't like learning to fight.

I constantly quarrelled with my grandfather about it,

but it was still fun.

That is, up until he came.

Who came?

Tell us.

Who visited the house of an old man and a young girl?

Who was it that broke up this family?

It was...

It must've been a pupil of Jang Sam Bong.

How do you know that, Bang Ji?

He said he was from the Great Continent.

He said he wanted to fight with my grandfather.

My grandfather didn't want it, but he ended up fighting.

And he passed away that day.

Then I,

without realising it...

I am sorry.

But we had a fair fight, and he lost.

This is what happens with the swordsmen.

It must've been very tough for you.

You were so young,

and you became an orphan.

But more than that,

more than my grandfather's death,

it was harder to accept that I've killed a man.

I can't even count...

how many nightmares I had.

I abandoned the sword right away,

and I never held it again.

But Your Highness,

I...

killed three men just last night.

And I still...

fell asleep comfortably beside you.

I will fight with you.

So,

never give up on me again.

The man who died yesterday, Chuk In Gwang, was a great swordsman.

If I had fought him alone...

Why would you ever fight with him?

Moo Hyul, you should never breed that kind of idea in your head.

How good is Chuk Sa Gwang?

She's a woman, so there must be a limit.

But she still learned the Goksan Method.

The assassins are not back?

I told them I'd settle the balance if they bring back Baek Geun Soo.

It's already morning but they are not back yet.

Something must've gone wrong.

Where is Moo Hyul? Let's go there.

How did this happen?

Why is Baek Geun Soo dead?

Who are those two assassins?

Geun Soo...

(Monk Jukryong, Chief Monk of Temple Bigook)

Did he die while fighting those two assassins?

Or...

That wound is...

the signature mark of Goksan Method.

Then...

(Yook San)

was it Chuk Ga?

Why would he...

He was dying in the woods.

Why would he come down all of a sudden and kill these four?

That can't be right.

Prince Jungchang went back home.

Thank goodness.

You get rid of these bodies.

And you find out...

who ordered those assassins to come here...

and what they were trying to do here.

Also, find out more about that wound.

Yes, Sir.

None of them returned?

So it failed.

They are dead.

Now that they are dead, you don't need to settle the balance.

If you want, I will get you another one.

Is Baek Geun Soo that strong?

We sent a guy much stronger than Baek Geun Soo.

You didn't secretly switch the guys, did you?

We don't do that.

Perhaps, there must've been a swordsman...

even stronger than Baek Geun Soo.

Perhaps Moo Myung killed them?

That's right. It must've been Moo Myung.

Did Moo Myung...

kill another man?

Yes. It seems...

he killed the men who were sent to get Baek Geun Soo.

Gosh, it's like a group of murderers.

Look at your face.

Don't worry now. I will get to it myself.

We can find them.

What's wrong?

Is it because of your mother?

My mum was not kidnapped.

What do you mean?

The secret code she used...

to communicate with people from Moo Myung...

worked?

My mum...

works for Moo Myung.

She's a member of Moo Myung.

I didn't want to believe it,

(Boon Yi)

but now it's confirmed.

Then...

that's how you found out about...

Gil Sun Mi meeting Jichuntae?

Why...

Why would you tell me that now?

That makes my mum...

our enemy.

I was scared.

Leader Boon Yi.

Will you act all weak like that?

You have to look at the bigger picture.

You lose if you become weak.

But why did you get all worked up about...

finding Moo Myung so suddenly?

You were busy chasing after Master Jung Mong Joo.

Master Sambong...

trusts Master Jung Mong Joo,

and apparently Master Jung Mong Joo is very crucial to this plan.

So I decided to trust him too.

I will find Moo Myung no matter what.

So you should...

stop thinking about other things and only focus on this. Okay?

By the way, who do you think...

is Jichuntae?

I was curious too, so I asked Yeon Hee to find out.

But even those in Hwasadan...

don't know who it is.

I'll have to meet that one first.

Who?

Look who's here.

I've been expecting you.

In the end,

you needed me, right?

I'm not here for jokes.

Then why are you here?

Moo Myung.

Why don't we share with each other...

what we know about Moo Myung?

Why?

I've been working so hard to find out about them.

Why would I want to share them with you?

But you will, in the end.

Why?

I doubt...

you chased Moo Myung for such a long time...

just because it was Lee In Gyum's will.

I don't believe it.

Wasn't it because you were just dying to find it out?

Am I wrong?

I guess you're right.

That's what kept me going.

Once Master Lee In Gyum passed away,

I didn't have any reason to chase Moo Myung any more.

Right.

I can't stand being curious.

Then what keeps you going?

Injustice.

I just can't seem to stand any injustice.

I'm sure there are other things you can't stand.

Make a guess, then.

Realising...

there's nothing you can do.

You won't be able to stand it.

You won't stand...

realising how weak you are.

If you're going to talk nonsense, I'll leave.

Fine.

Then...

what should we do?

How many organisations in Gaegyeong have assassins?

There are 6 or 7.

Two assassins were sent to Prince Jungchang.

Find out who sent them.

Yes, Sir.

That makes sense.

Jichuntae in Moo Myung...

must be from either Temple Bigook or Hwasadan.

Moo Myung...

just delivers the right information to the right person...

to manipulate.

That's what exactly they did to Master Lee In Gyum.

That's right.

They controlled authorities using their information.

There are only two people in Gaegyeong...

that have so much information.

Cho Young in Hwasadan...

and Monk Jukryong at Temple Bigook.

In addition, Cho Young...

pretended not to recognise the symbol of Moo Myung.

Master Lee In Gyum asked her numerous times...

to look for Kim Nae Pyung.

She must recognise the symbol.

Mong Jukryong at Temple Bigook...

gave away important information to me...

about General Choi Young...

as a token of his gratitude for making a deal...

when they set out to conquer Liaodong.

He normally doesn't do that.

He never does.

He never gives away any information for free.

Looking back,

he must have wanted us to stop General Choi Young.

That must be why he gave us the information.

And I guess...

Moo Myung was behind it.

Could either Cho Young or Monk Jukryong...

belong to Moo Myung?

Right, one more thing.

Imitated handwriting.

There was a letter...

imitating Jo Joon's handwriting, right?

Why is that important?

Copying an existing letter isn't that hard.

An experienced expert can do it within an hour.

But...

writing whatever you want to...

in someone else's handwriting is different.

Firstly, you need to collect the person's handwriting.

You need thousands or even ten thousands of letters.

When you've collected enough letters,

you have to practise letter by letter.

If you're to train someone...

to that level,

it'll take at least three years.

The only organisations that can afford such time and resources...

are also Temple Bigook and Hwasadan.

But...

both Temple Bigook and Hwasadan...

get paid for their work.

They might be...

just agents of Moo Myung.

Jichuntae.

If that person...

What's on your mind?

Let me check it.

What do you mean?

Wait.

You said we were going to share things with each other.

Why is he so hasty?

Moo Myung must be so anxious to find out.

What do you mean?

About the assassins we sent to capture Baek Geun Soo.

They must have no idea...

who sent them.

That's right.

They would never imagine they were sent by you.

They don't even know...

if the assassins were meant for Prince Jungchang or Baek Geun Soo.

So they must be trying to find out who sent them.

Is that what you mean?

Exactly. So...

Hurry up.

Wait.

- Yes. - Do me a favour.

A favour?

What is it?

Is this how you're supposed to do it?

You should be sweaty.

Oh, right.

Will they really come?

Is Moo Myung coming?

They should.

Do you have any idea how you do it?

Master Bang Won.

We're ready.

Moo Myung.

I hope they'll come.

Can you come with me?

General Lee decided to take Prince Jungchang to the throne.

What?

That's right.

Is that true?

We've been looking forward to this moment.

And General Lee is blowing this opportunity.

Why would he do that?

Another king will only extend our struggle.

It is to get Master Jung Mong Joo on board.

He had no other choice.

He believes Master Jung Mong Joo...

will play an important part in our plan.

I'm going to meet him and persuade him.

Any further delay...

might get us into trouble.

- But... - In addition,

Mong Joo or Prince Jungchang might belong to Moo Myung.

They might be fooling around with us.

Last night,

an organisation called Moo Myung sent someone to me.

- Is that true? - Let me ask you something.

By any chance,

are you related to the organisation, Moo Myung?

Master.

That's impossible.

They're trying to interfere with the reform...

and hold the country back.

You should not...

be manipulated by them.

Also,

Goryeo should not...

go with people...

with such ideas.

Then...

is it okay for me not to become their puppet?

Master.

Do you mean...

Can I trust you...

and join you...

in rebuilding this country?

Of course.

Of course, Prince Jungchang.

Fine.

I'll be the King.

Master.

I'll be your loyal servant.

How can Prince Jungchang become the King?

Calm down. What's the matter?

This is not...

why I offered you all the data about the land...

that I had worked so hard on.

Where is General Lee Seong Gye?

Let me talk to him directly.

Please listen to me.

We have a chance now.

General Lee should be the King.

Aren't you aware of Five Rules?

Then you must be aware of what's the most important thing.

- Five Rules? - Then how can you say that?

My fellow.

What are Five Rules?

We're going to persuade Mong Joo with Five Rules.

Please wait.

I'll let you know soon.

Five Rules...

must be the hidden weapon that will win Master Jung over.

I knew they had a plan.

I don't care what Five Rules are.

Prince Jungchang can't be the King.

General Lee Seong Gye should be the King.

This is an opportunity that will not come again.

What are you talking about?

When the rumour about the new king was spread,

I just laughed it off because it was nonsense.

So those of you here...

have been plotting this all along?

I know that you've been talking about reformation.

Have you actually been plotting a conspiracy...

against my father to make him a traitor?

No. That is not what is going on.

Then what is going on now?

My father is the Great General of this kingdom.

How dare you talk about making him...

take the throne?

What is going on now?

A meeting will take place today at Temple Heunguk...

to discuss what to do with King Woo who instigated this incident...

as well as to discuss dethronement of King Chang.

We will also be speaking about enthroning Prince Jungchang.

Hence, be sure not to disclose...

any information about this matter.

Have you decided on how those who are responsible for...

plotting the assassination should be punished?

Yes.

Kim Jeo has admitted having his hand in it, so he will be executed.

Including Master Jo Sang Won and...

Master Lee Do Soo who were interrogated at the police agency,

all 27 people who are affiliated with this incident...

will be sent into exile.

In addition,

King Woo, who led this assassination plot, will be sent to Gangneung.

King Chang will be dethroned...

and will be sent into exile in Ganghwado.

Then now, the issue is...

enthroning a king who will...

gather the people in one place and give impetus to the reformation.

Hence, I...

I suggest that we should enthrone Prince Jungchang.

I...

agree with General Lee.

I also...

think that Prince Jungchang is the right person for our vision.

I agree as well.

If that is the case,

let's decide that Prince Jungchang will take the throne.

- Goodness! - Oh?

Welcome.

Are you looking for a sword?

I heard that you connect people with assassins.

What do you mean?

The assassins that went to Mount Goomyo last night.

Who sent them?

Well, I don't know the details.

My brother has the details.

You must have a record.

Still. I don't know.

Shall I kill you and take the record?

Gosh. No, no! Please give me a minute! Goodness.

Here it is.

You can look at this.

Yes.

She's from Hwasadan.

How was I? Did I do a good job?

You looked awkward.

Look at me. I even teared up.

I wasn't sure what kind of emotion I was supposed to feel.

- You should've been more dramatic. - Gosh. I know.

- Goodness! - Gosh...

You're the ones who sent assassins to Mount Goomyo...

last night, aren't you?

Isn't he from Temple Bigook?

Temple Bigook is involved too?

What are you talking about?

You must have a record.

You must've recorded information about him somewhere.

- Give it to me now. - Well...

Hwasadan beat you to it. They already took the book.

Goodness! My goodness.

Hwasadan took the book, and...

someone came from Temple Bigook looking for it as well.

So both of them were there?

Both places operate based on clients' requests.

So there's no way of knowing whether they were there because...

of their clients or because they're part of Moo Myung.

Then shall we chase both of them from now on?

We won't find out anything through chasing Moo Myung.

We have to make them reveal themselves.

How?

I hope my idea works.

Hwasadan got there before us and took the book.

We were one step behind.

It looks like Hwasadan...

is doing this because of Prince Jungchang's request.

We'll raid Hwasadan...

to take the book from them...

and to find out who is behind this.

There is no need.

Jichuntae is here.

Jichuntae?

No way. Why on earth are you...

That is what I want to ask. Why are you...

Meet each other.

This is Jichuntae, who also goes by the name, Cho Young.

This is Poongjigwan, known as Jukryong.

You've met each other before, right?

I can't believe that Hwasadan and I were on the same team.

Temple Bigook is...

part of our organisation?

So tell me. Who is the person that sent...

the assassins to Prince Jungchang?

Lee Bang Won did it.

Lee Bang Won?

He is the fifth son of General Lee Seong Gye.

Please reveal yourself, Moo Myung.

Why did you fail in your plan to kill the tree before it blossoms?

The thrown picture of lacquered beasts is only in my hand.

From Lee Bang Won.

The plan of killing the tree before it blossoms...

How does he know about it?

What is it?

What is the matter?

Does this mean that...

there is a spy within our organisation?

"The thrown picture of lacquered beasts"?

Lee Bang Won.

Are you going to keep being preoccupied with Moo Myung?

What is the matter?

Prince Jungchang will be enthroned.

And?

I think that we are letting a good opportunity pass.

Jo Min Soo gave us an opportunity in the past,

and King Woo presented another opportunity this time.

But why...

This is what Master Sambong and my father want to do.

Your father.

And Master Sambong.

They can't always be right.

In case they're wrong,

you should make sure to be prepared.

- Long live the King. - Long live the King.

- Long live the King. - Long live the King.

- Long live the King. - Long live the King.

- Long live the King. - Long live the King. subtitles ripped and synced by riri13

(King Gongyang)

Together, we did something great.

Yes, so now,

I think we need to have...

a deep conversation again.

We should.

Will you persuade me once again?

Yes, I must.

Should we drink at Janghyeongak on the 15th?

Sure.

I will see you then.

Okay.

I will make sure to make you give up on that plan, Sambong.

Be remembered as the hero...

who saved Goryeo through reformation.

I can't let you become a traitor.

How can you move so slow?

Don't think of it as slow.

Think that we are solidifying the foundation.

Okay.

I will trust you.

It seems like you're still upset, Master Jo Joon.

My dear fellow has such a temper,

and that will make him last long.

What?

What's wrong with my temper?

My temper is as beautiful as silk.

Yes. I feel better now.

I told them to prepare a banquet at Dohwajeon.

Let's have some fun.

I know.

I never thought...

I'd dine here again.

Bang Gwa,

go and check if anyone is hiding in that room.

What if someone comes in to slice the meat...

and bring an axe in his hand?

You're here.

Welcome.

Have a seat.

You're telling us to sit on the same table as you?

We will eat separately.

No.

You played a vital role in coming this far.

Have a seat.

We've been through a lot to come this far.

But it's going to be even tougher from now on.

When this difficult times pass,

the reign of peace will come.

Let's toast to that day.

- To that day. - To that day.

Yes, when the reign of peace comes,

what would you like to do?

You mean like a dream?

All right.

Since you are asking,

I will tell you my long-time dream.

I...

When the reign of peace comes,

(Lee Ji Ran)

I will write poems.

Warm poems.

Don't laugh. It's my true passion.

You will write poems!

Let's see how grand your dream is.

Gosh, my dream?

Actually,

I have a very clear dream.

It is to leave my name...

in history.

Your name?

What name do you want to leave?

What does that matter?

I just want to leave...

my name Jo Young Gyoo in the history.

How about you, Master Sambong?

What name do you want to leave in history?

Rather than leaving my name,

I want to leave a record.

A record?

When the reign of peace comes,

I want to write books until the day I pass.

I will write about everything I learned, experienced...

and thought in my life.

I will record them in words and leave them for future generations.

That's my long dream.

You are right.

A person like Sambong should make sure to record everything...

in his head before he dies.

If he doesn't do that,

he will be committing a crime against the future generations.

That's right.

Let's drink.

Gosh.

I was so afraid that he was going to ask me,

and cold sweat ran down my back.

(Lee Bang Ji)

You kept murmuring alone.

(Lee Bang Ji)

Weren't you preparing your answers?

No.

What's your dream?

My real dream is...

(Moo Hyul)

I only told Master Bang Won.

When you make people smile,

I want to feel that I was a part of it.

Bang Ji, how about you?

My dream is...

to make sure Boon Yi's dream comes true.

And to find my mum.

How about you, Master Bang Won?

Me?

Don't make fun of me.

This is embarrassing.

Dream is supposed to be a little embarrassing to tell others.

I...

want to make everyone smile.

And...

to...

make sure your dreams come true.

How?

By taking a part in politics.

I'll make everyone smile and make sure your dreams come true.

Yes.

A politician who makes the people happy.

I really hope you become a politician like that.

That sounds great.

I think you will do well.

Do you mean that?

To a certain extent.

Lee Bang Won.

He made the 10 noble families write an appeal.

And he snatched Hong In Bang's marriage talk...

and became Min Je's son-in-law.

Moreover,

he sent the assassin...

precisely when we appeared...

in front of Prince Jungchang.

Should I make a contact?

"The thrown picture of lacquered beasts".

"The thrown picture of lacquered beasts"?

What is this now?

Will the reign of peace really come?

It won't.

What?

Humans always...

look for something we lack...

at any situations.

So politics will always be needed.

I see.

Are you...

Lee Bang Won?

How do you know about...

"Kill the tree before it blossoms"?

At last, you appeared.

Moo Myung.

Are you from Moo Myung?

Don't be tense.

I just thought...

we could talk.

You warrior there.

Relax.

For your master's safety.

How do you think I know about "Kill the tree before it blossoms"?

Well, it's obvious.

Perhaps one of us who got arrested by the police...

gave it out.

Then what brings you here?

Did you want to find out about the secret code I gave?

Whatever that means,

it doesn't affect us at all.

So from now on, stop coming up with...

an immature and sloppy strategy like this.

It's not a game meant for you.

Keep that in mind. Let's go.

Those with no names...

shall never disappear.

(Those with no names shall never disappear.)

Those with no names...

shall never disappear.

Do you think we found out this one from that guy?

Why would he tell us this?

Then...

are you telling me there's a traitor...

on our side?

Even so, why would you let me know?

You want us to mistrust each other?

It seems like you do trust each other very much.

But...

those closest to you deserve the most mistrust.

For example,

Jichuntae.

How sure are you?

Are you...

doubting me?

Jung Mong Joo and Jeong Do Jeon are allied.

They even decided who should be the King.

You're in charge of Jeong Do Jeon.

What have you done?

I apologise.

If Jung Mong Joo doesn't act as we wish,

we'll have to find a new sword.

Just like when we got rid of King Gongmin,

we'll need a sword as good as Hong Ryun.

But are you good enough to handle finding a new sword?

I doubt it.

Jichuntae, you are leaking information.

How could he know about Jichuntae?

I've planted someone around Jeong Do Jeon.

Let me start checking from there.

You must find it out. You must.

Also,

"The thrown picture of lacquered beasts".

Find out what that is, too.

Have you looked into it?

It's true they agreed on Prince Jungchang becoming the King.

But apart from that,

I haven't found out what other plans they have.

Now that they know who you are, it must be harder.

You should take your hands off this task.

- Ma'am. - I'll assign you another task.

Before you take your hands off,

do find out what Jung Mong Joo's and Sambong's plans are.

Report every time you find something.

Tomorrow, report to me at 8am.

Can you do that?

Yes, Ma'am.

Tomorrow at 8am?

Yes, I have to report to her.

Then do it like this.

When you report to Cho Young tomorrow morning,

tell her that we're up to something...

and the plan is called something like, "The thrown picture".

Tell her you didn't hear the full name.

"The thrown picture"?

What's that?

Is that a name of Master's new strategy?

If Cho Young asks...

if it's "The thrown picture of lacquered beasts",

it means...

she's in Moo Myung.

But Hwasadan's specialty is information.

They could've found out about it through other channels.

That's impossible.

Because...

it's a meaningless phrase I made up.

Okay, I'll do that.

It's my turn.

- Is it Yut? - It's Gae.

One more time. Let me get you.

Gae is useless.

Take a look at this.

I don't even have to look.

This is too expensive.

Yeon Hee will be here soon.

She'll check with Cho Young for the last time.

- If it turns out to be right... - We send people...

to capture her, right?

- That sounds like a plan. - Yes.

Master Bang Won came up with it.

I'm going to meet Mong Joo...

around noon at Janghyeongak and persuade him.

Are you finally going to tell him about Five Rules?

I'll make sure I persuade him with it.

Please do that.

Around noon at Janghyeongak?

Ma'am. What brings you here?

I was being impatient.

Have you found out anything?

Sambong and Jung Mong Joo will have a secret meeting today.

Where will it be?

I haven't found that out yet.

But if you give me more time, I'll make sure to find it out.

Yeon Hee.

Was it you?

Yeon Hee.

Yes, Ma'am.

Is Sambong...

going to meet Jung Mong Joo around noon...

at Janghyeongak?

Didn't he just tell you that?

I should blame myself...

for trusting you too much.

I'll give you a last chance.

What is "The thrown picture of lacquered beasts"?

"The thrown picture of lacquered beasts"?

Are you...

in Moo Myung?

You must be...

Jichuntae.

It's getting late. I wonder why Yeon Hee's not back yet.

She told me she was going to report to Cho Young.

What if Cho Young found out?

Come on!

Keep Yeon Hee...

imprisoned.

Yes, Ma'am.

They'll be at Janghyeongak.

They're meeting around noon. So hurry up.

I'll be there soon.

Yes, Ma'am.

What happened?

Cho Young is gone. I couldn't find her servant, either.

Yeon Hee can't be this late.

Did Cho Young make a move first?

Yeon Hee said...

she'd visit Master Sambong at his cave.

If Cho Young is in Moo Myung,

she must know where the cave is.

- Young Gyoo, please stay here. - Yes, Sir.

She's in Moo Myung.

What do you mean?

Don't you understand? It'll be revealed to everyone.

Moo Myung killed three officials.

And they tried to assassinate General Lee Seong Gye twice.

When everything's revealed,

Hwasadan...

will be exterminated.

Please set me free. I want all of us to survive.

Are you going to kill everyone?

You, witches from Hwasadan.

You were Moo Myung's puppets.

All of you, drop your swords now.

We have to spare our lives.

Do you want everyone to be killed?

You traitor. You better shut your mouth.

You're the one who deceived all of us and Cho Young.

Cho Young is the one who has deceived all of us.

Hwasadan...

uses politics but doesn't get involved in politics.

We were just one of Moo Myung's sub-organisations.

Shut your mouth, you traitor.

We don't belong to Moo Myung.

We have no affiliation with Moo Myung.

It is only...

associated with Cho Young.

Where is Cho Young?

She probably went to Janghyeongak.

She is supposed to meet...

Master Sambong and Master Jung Mong Joo there today.

Please hurry and head there now.

Janghyeongak.

Let's go.

Have you thought about...

the King's duties?

Yes.

The King of the new regime...

must not be taken as an omnipotent being...

who is not bound by the laws.

And?

First of all, the King of the new regime...

must continue to study.

There must be contests for debating...

and discussing the philosophies and principles of Neo-Confucianism.

I'd like to create a system for such contests.

Cho Young.

Shush. Can't you see that I'm listening to their conversation now?

We meet again like this.

You're part of Moo Myung.

Jichuntae.

Will you take your own life?

That's what people with no power do.

Shall I head to the police agency now?

Take her.

You're saying that the King of the new regime founded upon...

the principles of Neo-Confucianism must be a great Confucian scholar.

What's next?

The King must not be allowed to...

have private meetings with any lieges or officials.

The King's duties and responsibilities...

should be limited to serve public purposes.

Private meetings could instigate selfish greed and ulterior motives,

which will lead to making biased decisions.

The King will not be allowed to have private meetings?

And the King of the new regime...

must not be authorised to own any private property.

All of the King's property must be managed by his lieges.

Moreover, the King must not hold any rights to appoint...

personnels except for the minister position.

If that is the case,

what does kingship mean...

in this new regime?

The King will just be...

the flower of this country.

The root of this new regime...

should be the scholars.

The Confucian scholars and the officials should be the root.

I'm not talking about the ones who inherit class and power.

I'm talking about the members of the nobility...

who have worked hard to prove their capabilities.

Power will not be passed down.

You're saying hereditary succession of power is the root of corruption.

Yes.

And the last thing is...

Yes. Tell me.

All members of the royal family...

will not be authorised to take part in politics.

As soon as the new regime is founded,

all rights and power will be taken away from the royal family.

They will not be able to do anything.

That way, we can prevent all corruptions.

Making the people in this kingdom smile?

All of your dreams.

I will make them come true.

Really? How?

By taking a part in politics.

I'll make everyone smile and make sure your dreams come true.

Yes.

A politician who makes the people happy.

I really hope you become a politician like that.

Realising there is nothing you can do.

You won't be able to stand it.

(Six Flying Dragons)

How did your conversation with Master Jung Mong Joo go?

I told him everything that was in my heart.

Becoming a politician that makes the people...

smile and happy. That was my dream.

What did you say? They're alive?

Are you saying that my mum is deeply affiliated with Moo Myung?

Find out if there is a brother and a sister...

around Lee Bang Won.

Lee Bang Won. How about we use him...

as our new sword?

There is something strange about Master Bang Won.

You're saying that there will be no place for me.

No. There will be many places for me.

You look great with your hair up in a topknot like that.

I'm not a kid any more.
