(Episode 52)
Everyone in the city witnessed her treatment...
and Prince Kyung-Won for smallpox
All physicians and physician ladies...
followed Jang-Geum's orders without any complaints
believing they could cure Prince Kyung-Won's disease
That's why I will accept your will
Your Majesty! This is an unjust action...
that shakes the foundation of Chosun!
I appoint Jang-Geum as a 7 th class official!
I'd kowtow 100 times to say this to you...
this is not right!
I appoint physician lady Jang-Geum as a 6th class official!
Sir Min, go make the order!
Follow me for a moment
Don't accept the King's command
Don't execute the King's order!
It is the King's command
I have a duty to accept it
How could that be your duty?!
To blindly obey the King?
As an official, the duty is...
to petition the King to take back the wrong order
How can you say it's wrong?
Then are you saying that he doesn't have to go by the Chosun's Law Book
because he is the King?
We can't let him go if he ignores the Law...
even if he is the King
Petition the King to take back his command
Go and do that
I'm sorry, but I cannot do that
What?!
The Law Book of Chosun should be obeyed by all
And?
But having the right person in the right place is also...
the purpose of the Law
I think the purpose is more important than the literal reading
Why you...!
Sorry, but this is the King's command...
and I'm supposed to obey it
You probably know why the King's scribe, Kwon Bo-Geun...
was exiled during the reign of King Sejong
Is that what you have in mind?
The Left Prime Minister's words are right
Why did the King's scribe Kwon Bo-Geun go into exile?
When the King appointed peasant Jang Young-Sil to an office...
everyone disapproved, except him
He didn't even uphold the order like you're doing
He only expressed his opinion and he was exiled
But we still find his inventions useful
The scribe's acceptance of the command...
was the right thing to do
Are you going to keep this up?!
Why'd we start government service in the first place?
It was to raise competent people...
who'd been neglected to higher positions under...
the condition that they wouldn't fawn upon authority
Didn't you say we should use the talented people who were...
wasting talent because they were peasants or born of a concubine?
But I never said we should promote a woman
What difference is there between the low class and women?
How could you act absurdly just because she's a lady...
you have feelings for?!
If it were for the feelings...
I have for her, I would've just run away
I'm doing this because I've given up on those feelings
Sure. Then go ahead and write the order
Write the order that will last forever
But that'll be the end of our relationship!
If the Left Prime Minister...
doesn't exile you, I'm going to exile you!
How could Jang-Geum be in charge...
of the pharmacy when you're here?
Yes. We do value her talents...
but that's only as a physician lady
As a human being...
I do have a desire for status
But through what Jang-Geum has shown me, she has turned me...
back into a physician from a selfish person
She made me reflect on what kind of a physician I am
The only virtue of a physician is to heal the sick
If one can't heal, trying at least and taking preventive measures
If one has to give ranks to a physician...
then that's the only standard
In that respect, Jang-Geum was simple
She decided and acted with simplicity
Just as a mother would do to save her children
Actually I'm lucky that I could have such a person with me
I'm lucky because we can work towards making things better
So I hope all the physicians & ladies of the pharmacy would accept my will
So even you're accepting this?
I said, yes!
Then why are you angry?
I'm not angry!
Then why are you yelling?
When did I yell?!
Just accept it then
Why do you have to yell?
Why you...! I'm not yelling!
Where are you going?
To the library to read medical books!
Lady Eun-Bi reading medical books?
Can't I even read medical books?!
No, not that...
I've accepted what one should accept
But I don't like to lose
I'm going to study from now on to be better than Jang-Geum
Huh?
I'm going to do it!
LfJang-Geum can do it, I can do it!
Your Highness, you should take the medicine now
If you keep doing this I'll bring more bitter medicine
So go ahead and take it please
OK. If you take the medicine...
we'll go to the garden...
and play spear games and fly kites
Really?
Of course, Your Highness
Isn't that right, sir?
Yes, Your Highness
So go ahead and take the medicine
That's good...
Waiting to be punished?!
Waiting to be punished?!
How could she wait to be punished by her own son?!
Your Highness! Your Highness!
You must not do this
Step aside, Queen!
Your Highness, please...
Step aside...
Mother!
Mother! Mother...
how could a mother wait for her son to punish her?!
Personally, I'm your mother, but I'm also your servant
So why not?
Mother!
And I'm the person who failed to teach you, the King, the ruler...
of this nation, to consider the fundamentals of the nation
Consider the fundamentals of the nation?
Isn't that why you ordered to...
appoint a physician lady to a government office?
Such a thing has never happened with previous kings
So as a mother, I will receive the punishment, and you step aside
Mother! What mother asks her son to punish her?
Please calm down and stop doing this
Step aside!
Mother, you're making me break the rule of heaven!
Move!
Mother!
I'm going to stay right here until you start to take the right path
That is what I deserve as a mother who wrongly taught her son
So move
Mother!
I said, step aside!
Sure...
I understand you...
so stop waiting to be punished
Are you sure about this?
Yes, Mother
It is hard to bend the will of the King's Mother
You deserve to receive not...
the 6th class office, but the 3rd class...
but blame it on being born as a woman
There was a time in my childhood...
when I caught rabbits with boys
My mother tried to stop me but...
I always questioned her why I couldn't do it
Really? I was like that, too I asked why...
only my brother went to school
Before the King gave his order...
the physician lady who taught me medicine at Jeju told me that...
when a man heals a person, he is recognized...
as a person who has saved a life and is rewarded...
but when a physician lady does it...
she is accompanied at bed for a night instead of receiving a reward
So she told me not to decline the offer of the King and...
show that a physician lady is also a person who practices medicine
So that's why I accepted his command...
but I still don't know...
the curiosity of my youth has grown even bigger so I want to do it...
and I can practice medicine anywhere...
I do wish I could hide myself seeing all the commotion...
going on because of me
You didn't go home?
No... it's too late...
You're having a hard time, huh?
I know... but the Queen, the King, and physicians and ladies have...
acknowledged you already
Though the world may not recognize you...
people around you have
I think just for that you're one step ahead
Since you'll continue to heal the sick
Anyhow, Eun-Bi and I'll take care of Prince Kyung-Won today...
so don't think about coming near his quarters
Eun-Bi and I decided to give our best
If you do show up, then I'm going to think that...
you're jealous of us becoming better
It must've been hard for you
Your Majesty...
This is the physician ladies' quarters
You are working so hard like this for me...
and I've never been here before
Your grace is immeasurable Your Majesty
Sit down
Everyone is working so hard for me...
but I don't seem to be a good king
I haven't done anything right...
How could you say such a thing?
I'm so sorry to you and I have no excuses
It's not just to you...
ever since I became the King, I've always felt sorry...
and I had no excuses
Your Majesty...
What is it?
It's a spring night
How about a walk outside?
I heard last winter was so cold that many people died
I guess the ruthless winter is gone and spring is back again
Don't think winter is just ruthless
Why?
If the winters are cold, then barley grows well
Though I feel sorry for those who died of cold...
there will be less people dying of starvation
The cold increases the number of...
deaths due to freezing but the number of plagues decreases...
for the rest of the three seasons
Really?
Yes. I too learned it from Sir Shin while being trained under him
Really?
So one should prepare to care for the patients for the winter this year
And if the winter is warm then prepare for the plague
Really?
He taught that since nature always teaches, learn from it
And learn to be strong from nature
Really?
So we complained a lot...
because we had to walk up the mountains on bare feet...
and do breathing exercises every early morning
Complain? He was trying to teach you well and make you healthy
Then would you like to try it, too?
Me?
Yes, Your Majesty
Exhale slowly
Exhale more slowly
Now I see that you wanted to...
come out so you could make me do this
I'm awe-stricken, Your Highness
Why are you doing this?
If you do this everyday you can sleep better at night
How did you know that I had trouble sleeping at nights?
How did you know?
Did you know that you clench your fist tight when you talk?
Though I do not know even some of your thoughts in your heart...
if you do that, you'll strain your shoulders and...
it'll strain your neck causing anxiety...
and you'll have problems sleeping
And it'll affect the liver causing your health to go bad
Actually, when I had checked your pulse last time...
you were under much stress
Such stress causes damage to the health and the heart
So Your Highness, when you have trouble sleeping...
don't force yourself to sleep...
Take a walk like this
And if something makes you anxious don't try to suppress it...
You should tell it to whom you trust the most...
and who understands you the best
It might help to take up your hobby of drawing again
Your Majesty, please understand!
Even the scholars are appealing to impeach official Min Jung-Ho
I gave the command, so how could you try to impeach him?!
Your Majesty, we must make him responsible...
for putting aside the Law and confusing you
so such a thing may never happen again
Are you saying that to me right now?
There are hundreds of servants...
because the King's will could be wrong
It is the servant's duty to correct the will of the King if it is wrong
Please punish Min Jung-Ho for neglecting his duty
Your Majesty! Please understand!
Understand? Understand?
What do you expect me to understand?!
I still don't consider my command to be wrong, so understand what?!
You get out of here right now!
Your Majesty...
we'll be back tomorrow
Your Majesty, you should go to sleep
Where should we take you?
And if something makes anxious...
don't try to suppress it...
You should tell it to whom you trust the most...
and who understands you the best
It helps to take up your hobby of drawing again
Let's go to the Queen's palace
Your Majesty...
should I make the call?
Your Majesty...
Let's go to Lee Suk-Won's palace
Yes, Your Majesty
Your Majesty...
Let's just take a walk
Yes, Your Majesty
Head eunuch, do you envy me, the King?
Your Majesty...
that's an absurd question
It's alright. Go ahead and tell me
I can't, and I shouldn't envy...
I said it's all right
Your Majesty
One night, I see Shin whom I had made disappear with my own hands...
and another night, I'd have Kyung-Bin whom I had given poison to...
and another night, I'd have Jung-Am
Your Majesty, I feel bad to receive your words. Please stop
But you told me to do this
Excuse me?
Didn't you tell me to talk to the person I can trust the most?
Even that wasn't easy to find
But you didn't accept the Queen's command...
even though your life was at risk
And you didn't even tell me about it
So I trust you
I trust that you won't tell any other person what I tell you
And since you're a physician lady who...
wants to heal sick people whenever you see them...
you'd want to treat me and understand me
I didn't want to be enthroned
But those who enthroned me wanted something in return
and I had no choice but to do what they wanted
So that's how I became a king who kills people
Some nights are spent in resentment...
and some nights are spent in anger
But the thing that torments me the most...
is self-accusation
The fact that I shouldn't have been the King
The fact that I'm not prepared to be the King
The fact that I've become a puppet king of high officials
Those may be the reason why...
I always have a clenched fist
You really spanked the rabbit because it couldn't walk?
Yes, Your Majesty
I can't believe you spanked it!
And how was your childhood?
I'm not sure... my childhood...
Princes are separated for special education in the palace
But I tried to avoid it Since I had an older brother...
I didn't even imagine that I'd be the King
So I only focused on hunting and martial arts
It was even better outside the palace
I communicated with those who...
studied astronomy, medicine, music or arts
I also followed those who took trips all over the world
So that's why you've revised...
the national geographical book
Yes, the national geographical book was so old...
a lot of things were outdated
And you've rebuilt the astronomical observation device
And those times when you helped drive out Yuh-Jin and the Japanese
You built the thunder canons
Yes, I guess so...
Although you may have avoided the education of princes...
it seems that you've received all the training necessary as the King
For people what could be more serious than driving out invaders...
and creating useful books and devices?
People plant their crops using the astronomical device you've made
You're teasing me
Your Majesty, how could I dare to tease you? I'm being honest
Some kings have achieved virtuous societies...
some kings fortified the military power...
some kings emphasized formality
You've restored the weakened Royal Household and policies...
caused by the previous King
Just for that you've done great work
For the unavoidable, sad situations...
of the past, you can forgive yourself
And think about the future
As your servant, as a physician lady who wishes for your health...
I ask you for that from the bottom of my heart
Put someone who can talk wittily beside the King everyday
OK
And put an apple beside his bed...
so the smell of apples can fill the room at all times
Smell of apples?
Yes. The smell of apples helps with sleep
Eating them is good, too
Really? OK
And please tell the highest kitchen lady...
to bring up more blue-back mackerels and sardines
If he loses his appetite...
then she can serve water kimchi or pickled radish
And tell her not to serve green tea at night
OK, I'll tell her that
It is the report of land ownership in Jeolla
So the estimation of land has finished finally
By the way, Sir Min, physician lady...
Jang-Geum is very intelligent
Isn't she?
Yes, she is
How did you get to know her?
When you carried out the Queen's secret order?
No
Then?
It was when she was in the Royal Kitchen as a kitchen lady
When she was a lady in the kitchen?
Yes, Your Majesty
When she was in a competition...
she had lost her ingredients
And I was Lt. General of Royal Guards...
so I happened to investigate it
So is that when you got to know her?
No
Then?
Actually, it was at the library...
How could you meet a court lady there?
Actually, she was on the way back from the herb garden...
and she had come to the library to do an errand for Sir Jung
Holding a letter, she was taking out Classics from the shelves
She was reading the Classics?
Yes, Your Majesty
She was concentrating so hard, she didn't even...
realize that I was approaching her
Is that so... so that's how you got to know her
Actually...
that's when I got to know her...
but I think I met her before that
What do you mean?
It was before I met her at the library
I had received an order to investigate the activities ofJapanese spies
I was hit by an assassin's knife and became unconscious
Oh, how dangerous it must've been...
But when I fell unconscious someone treated my wounds...
and told a physician about me...
so I was able to survive
And I found out that it was Jang-Geum who had done such a thing
You and physician lady Jang-Geum do go back quite a long time...
Yes, Your Majesty
You were tracking spies, you fell unconscious...
and Jang-Geum saved your life
Yes, Your Majesty
But I think I'm the one who's known Jang-Geum earlier than you did
It was a day before Yeonsan was dethroned
The child was so smart...
I couldn't forget her
I was talking to the attendant lady of my mother...
and Sir Park Won-Jong had sent a little girl...
to deliver drinks for my birthday
Then if someone were to visit me...
that person had to risk his life to do it
I was curious as to who had sent the drinks so I asked her to come in
As soon as she entered the room...
she gave an obeisance to Lady Kim
To a court lady?
Yes. I didn't show it at the time...
but it was very rash of her
She must've wanted to come into the palace
Yes. I found out after I heard her story later
So how is it? Though your fate with her is interesting...
mine is too, isn't it?
Yes, it is
Thought I'd benefit from you as you were to be promoted
Physician lady...
Why? Don't I deserve such a thing...
if I've taught you that much?
Yeah, where else are they going to find a physician...
with skills and character like yours?
You're better at speaking nice things than me now
I'm not trying to say nice things...
but it's because I'm so angry!
Physician lady...
Leave her alone
She has scolded me for falling short, too
She must still be angry
By the way, Lady Suh...
Yes, go ahead
I understand that you want to treat the King's illness at heart...
but taking a walk with him every morning...
He is the King Everyone in the palace knows about it
OK...
Mother, did you sleep well?
No. My mind wasn't at ease at all
King, I heard you had met physician lady Jang-Geum...
at the physician ladies' quarters
And you call her every morning to take a walk with her in the garden
Have you imagined how you look?
Please calm your anger, Mother
I was being helped medically
Then you should go to your physician
You took back your command...
so how could you go in private to meet her?
If you want her at your side that much, then...
have her as your royal concubine
Your Highness, you're misunderstanding
She is only treating my illness at heart...
Illness at heart? Why would you the King, have an illness of heart...?
Isn't it all because you wish to have her at your side?
So I'm telling you to have her as your concubine then
How could the sizes be so irregular?!
It must be even for good seasoning and to make it look tasty
How many times did I tell you that the details are important?!
I'm sorry I'm sorry
Food is devotion. First is devotion...
and second is devotion
Then what is after devotion?
After that?
It's taste of course Taste comes out...
naturally once devotion goes in
Understand?!
Do you understand?
Madam!
Madam, there's big trouble!
What? What?
What kind of commotion is this in the kitchen?!
Huh?
If you have something to say then follow me quietly
Tell me quickly. What is it? What?
You surprised me back there
What is it?
You know...
Jang-Geum...
Come on! Tell me quickly!
She'll be the King's concubine
What?! How could that be?!
Heard it from a worker lady...
I heard the King's Mother told him that
Why Jang-Geum all of a sudden?
Even though he has taken back his command, he met Jang-Geum alone
So his Mother told him to make her his concubine...
Is this good news or bad news?
I know...
Does Lady Suk-Won know about this, too?
What?!
That's what the King's Mother told him to do
It's all done once the Queen writes an order...
to make her the next concubine
And the Queen does such things quietly knowing the King's feelings
Why would he want Jang-Geum so much...
even though his health has been restored now?
He took back his command...
so shouldn't he see regular physicians?
It's probably because he trusts Jang-Geum so much
Did you hear it?
Hear what?
Jang-Geum will become...
the royal concubine!
Con...?! Huh?
Are you sure? Yes
I can't believe this!
This will raise our family up quickly!
What are you thinking?
What am I thinking?
It's not a bad thought
Who said it's regrettable that Jang-Geum can only be a concubine...
if she marries Sir Min Jung-Ho?
Sir Min Jung-Ho?! The high official...
marry him?!
That's a regular concubine...
but this is a royal concubine
How could you compare this to that?
But you know the relationship...
between Jang-Geum and Sir Min...
Of course, I know that...
They're that close?
So you know? So what?!
I know. But if even running away doesn't work it out...
then it's better for her to become a royal concubine
Is it better for both of them to stay single until they die?
Is that what you want?!
Run away?
No way! Never! I'm going to...
petition the King or something!
What is this about? Please tell me
So we're saying... Yes
Really?!
It's not even thunderbolt sounds out of clear sky!
Or the sound of lightning going back up to the sky!
It is the sound of money dropping down from the sky of course
This is a big problem...
it probably has nothing to do with what Jang-Geum wants
That's what I'm worried about
Things are turning out this way while she's like this with Sir Min...
so how would she feel?
Did you meet Jang-Geum yet?
Not yet. She may be crying somewhere
Is there any way?
This is why I hate the palace
Too many things happen out of my will
We should talk with Sir Min about this somehow...
He's probably having a hard time, too
Probably so...
If she becomes a royal concubine...
and she conceives...
and gives birth to a prince
and he happens to be enthroned...
Would you quit it?!
Royal concubine? Then she won't be able...
to practice medicine like she wants to
We want her to help the King...
not as a woman, but as a physician
That's right. And I say no to this it should never happen
I can't even imagine her becoming a royal concubine
This is different from what we've petitioned the King
But it's the court ladie's business We'll petition the King ourselves
Just what is going on?
I know... is that why you...?!
You still don't know Jang-Geum?
But it isn't something bad...
Jang-Geum must practice medicine and she wants to do that
How would you know that so well?
I know. I know it all Lucky you
What good is all our chatter?
Once the Queen writes her order it's all over
It's like that around here
I know...
Jang-Geum...
Where is she going?
Your Highness!
I think I know why you're here...
Your Highness!
I won't misunderstand you so go ahead and speak
I'm a physician lady and my wish is to practice medicine
I haven't even thought of anything else besides that...
I've never meant to hold power...
have status, or be liked by someone...
I know. I fully understand
And I trust your will
the King has told the King's Mother...
that it was only to receive medical help
Even if it's the desire of the King's Mother...
she won't be able to do anything as long as that's the King's intention
So don't worry too much
Have you imagined how you look?
If that's what you need...
then you should go to your physician
You took back your command...
so how could you go in private to meet her?
If you want her at your side that much, then...
have her as your royal concubine
Call Jang-Geum to the garden
Your Majesty...
I've stepped over my boundaries...
by trying to cure your illness at heart
And that's how I brought Your Highness' Mother's misunderstanding
Please send me to the public health center again
My mother's misunderstanding?
Is that all?
Actually I didn't know...
until Mother spoke to me that way
An excellent idea indeed!
I agree
Even though he may have taken back his command...
the reason why he kept meeting Jang-Geum...
is because he hasn't totally given up on it
Isn't that why his Mother has given the right idea at the right time?
Yes, things should've turned out like this from the beginning
And this may be what the King has wanted all along
And even ifJang-Geum becomes the concubine...
we cannot stop the petition to impeach Min Jung-Ho
Of course! We must restore the law and order that's been crumbled
Yes. Let's gather our strength to...
petition the King to make Jang-Geum...
the royal concubine, and impeach official Min Jung-Ho
Your Majesty! The petitions are coming in like the rain
You must decide now or there will be more trouble
Please decide on the impeachment of official Min Jung-Ho!
It'll be one man Min Jung-Ho's sacrifice
Or else many other officials and scholars will leave the government
Please understand!
Please understand!
And the King's Mother has made a wise decision
The court officials have decided to uphold...
the wish of the King's Mother
So, you can have physician lady Jang-Geum as your concubine...
and exile Min Jung-Ho to complete the work
Yes, Your Majesty
Please do that
Please do that...
Why aren't you writing the order...
to make Jang-Geum a royal concubine?
Do you not like this old lady interfering with the court ladies work?
Not at all, Your Highness
Then what's the problem? The King favors her...
and Jang-Geum will have her status restored
Jang-Geum is a physician lady
As he has said already, he wants her nearby to have his health examined
I had similar thoughts when the Prince was sick...
so I understand him
I just thought you may be misunderstanding him
What?! So you're thinking this old lady is being stubborn...
without understanding the situation?
Oh, not that...
No matter what, I feel like you've put aside my opinion already
You're misunderstanding me
If not, then write the order immediately!
It's the hand you should've held that time...
It's the hand that you may not be able to hold again
I heard it all
Hear what?
Jang-Geum...
What about Jang-Geum?
Tell it quickly!
Official Sir Min Jung-Ho...
She loves him!
What?!
What? Really?!
Yes...
When the order is about to be written?
But Sir Min, too...
Each other?!
How? How?!
Mr. Gang said that Jang-Geum had once saved Sir Min's life...
when she was out to find a golden pheasant
They didn't know each other...
but Sir Min had one of her belongings with which he searched for her
And?
And she had forgotten about it...
When she was in the herb garden she had gone to the library...
and that's where they saw each other
Library? Then those medical books...
that she was secretly reading?
Yes...
So that's how they fell in love
She was a court lady then It must've been so sad
When she was expelled to Jeju he finally realized...
it was Jang-Geum who had saved his life
That's so beautiful!
That's not the issue here...
Jang-Geum is going to be the royal concubine now...
That's sad... Then he should've married her...
when she was a physician lady
But I also heard they tried to elope
Elope?!
When?
But when the King gave an order for her to become his personal physician...
They should've just ran away then!
Anyway, you must not tell anyone
If this breaks out then it'll be over for Jang-Geum and Sir Min!
I know that much myself!
Get Jang-Geum right now
What are you going to do?
Is it true that you're in love with Sir Min?
So it is true
It must've been so hard for you...
and it must be so hard for you...
What are we going to do?
Jang-Geum...
Your Majesty, Lady Suk-Won would like to meet you
Suk-Won?
She has something important to say
Let her come in
Your Majesty, I know this goes against the rule...
but I have an important request...
that's why I've come here
A request?
I'm sorry to say this but...
Say it without hesitation, Suk-Won
Your Majesty, you may not consider...
my words to carry any weight, but...
please don't misunderstanding me
It is a request I give not as your lady...
but as a friend ofJang-Geum...
who values her the most, who knows her the best
Go ahead and tell me
You probably know Jang-Geum already
She's gives her all...
whether she's cooking food, or whether she's practicing medicine
I heard this came to be because of the King's Mother's misunderstanding
But she's thinking that way because...
she doesn't know Jang-Geum's dedication towards her work
You probably know about it
It is only proper for you to leave Jang-Geum as a physician lady
Raising her as your concubine...
is an act of breaking her talents...
an act to break her wish
That's what I think, too
Your Majesty, please make my friend Jang-Geum happy!
Let her do what she does well and enjoy doing...
and let her spend the rest...
of her life with her sweetheart
Her sweetheart?
Yes, Your Majesty. Jang-Geum and...
Sir Min Jung-Ho are in love
Everything has settled to its proper place...
and she has finally found peace
Please take care of Jang-Geum with limitless grace
OK. You can leave now Yes, Sire
And I was hit by an assassin's knife & became unconscious
Someone treated my wounds...
and told a physician about me so I was able to survive
And I found out that it was Jang-Geum who had done such a thing
You and physician lady Jang-Geum do go back quite a long time...
Yes, Your Majesty
You were tracking spies... you fell unconscious...
and Jang-Geum saved your life
Yes, Your Majesty
I'm here to ask about your health
OK. The Queen will write the order to make Jang-Geum...
your concubine tomorrow
You prepare for it as well
Your Majesty, the court is joyous...
over the news that physician lady...
Jang-Geum will receive the order to be your concubine
We've ordered the preparation for a feast
Head eunuch, come near
Have all the servants move out of here...
and bring physician lady Jang-Geum
Yes, Your Majesty
What are you thinking about that you don't even realize I'm here?
Head eunuch...
the King is looking for you so go to the Royal Chamber
Excuse me?
Come sit near me
I said, sit near me
I heard that you're in love with official Min Jung-Ho
Is this true?
Yes, Your Majesty
