How did I get home?

Yoon-bok!

Where am I?

There is an orange glow on your face.

My face?

I'll go get you something to drink.

Wait here, okay?

Are you...

abandoning me?

How imprudent of me.

I have committed

a great offense to Master Kim.

Yoon-bok!

I must ask her for forgiveness.

EPISODE 4 GETTING CLOSER, LITTLE BY LITTLE

You've got spoon worms for lips. They're so red.

Oh, wait.

Should we go for spoon worms?

Never mind.

He's probably had some before.

Are you getting spoon worms?

I love them too, you know?

I'll be home late!

Are you really getting spoon worms without me?

You're crossing a line!

Hey, Yoon-bok.

Did you sleep well, Master?

Yeah. How about you?

I did too.

I apologize for my imprudence last night.

No worries.

Are you ready to head out?

Sorry?

What?

Do you have plans for the weekend, Yoon-bok?

No, nothing special.

Really? In that case,

do you want to go on a city tour with me?

-City tour? -Yeah.

It's Kim Hong-do's special treat for her disheartened pupil Shin Yoon-bok!

-Yes, I will go. -Really?

-Is that a promise? -Yes.

Oh dear. Are you okay?

Do you have a bad hangover?

You must feel horrible.

Then we don't have to go.

We can go some other time.

No, Master. I simply overslept.

Could you wait a moment while I get ready?

Will you be all right?

Yes. I shall be ready in a moment.

Okay, take your time.

Again? All right!

That was so much fun, Yoon-bok!

Yoon-bok.

Yoon-bok?

Oh my.

Thank you.

You're amazing at this.

You're like a pro.

I would like to dedicate this honor to you, Master.

Really?

Thank you, Yoon-bok.

Look at this.

Here.

Thank you.

ICE ROOM

RED CLAY SAUNA

This dish resembles a volcano.

The lava may start flowing from it.

When can we start eating?

Wait for it.

Take some meat, water parsley, and bean sprouts

and eat them all together.

-Here. -Thank you.

Oh no. Are you okay?

Is it too spicy?

It is delicious.

Your face is so red.

I didn't know you couldn't eat spicy food.

I did not think I could not eat anymore

after the pork rib stew,

but this soft serve goes down so smoothly.

It's the sweet and salty rule.

Once you eat something salty, you're bound to crave something sweet.

The sweet and salty rule?

It's just like life.

Once the days full of salty tears and runny noses pass by,

you're bound to come across a sweet day just like this.

Master,

how is it that you have such interesting insights?

You're flattering me.

Everything I experienced today with you was a first for me.

My heart has been heavy obsessing over ancient objects

and events of the past.

But I feel a weight has been lifted after today's experiences.

I am happiest when I am with you, Master.

I feel the same.

Thanks to you, I had such a great time.

-Let's go. -Where?

The last stop on our tour.

Follow me.

Master!

Look over there.

The sunsets here are unbelievable.

Thank you for today, Master.

I should thank you.

Call me if you want to hang out again.

Oh, right.

You don't have my number.

So we can stay in contact.

I must refuse.

I could not dream

of exchanging phone numbers and becoming friends with my master.

Give me your phone.

You don't have to give me yours. Just take my number.

Here.

Call me.

Thank you.

I'll go now.

Bye.

Hello?

Master.

If you are ever down or would like to get fresh air...

call me at any time.

SHIN YOON-BOK

How cute.

Come in, Yoon-bok.

I cannot enter such an intimate space with...

I shall enter.

-Look at the camera, okay? -Camera?

Here's the timer.

Come closer, Yoon-bok.

Okay.

Hurry, time's running out!

I am happiest when I am with you, Master.

"When I am with you"?

With me?

Oh my god!

Look at these dark circles.

Did I go overboard yesterday?

Yoon-bok had fun, so it's all worth it.

Administrator Lee asked

if you'd accept Panmunjom over Seongsan Village.

Is he a fool or what?

How does he still not understand what I want?

Should we prepare a plan B?

No, it's go big or go home.

I will only accept plan A.

Hello.

I see you have fallen in love, Hong-do Kim.

-Pardon me? -With work.

I can't wait to see how your keychain concept

will be transformed into fashion.

I passionately support your love!

Thank you, ma'am!

You go, girl.

A death caused 17 years ago?

An item my father had at the time of his death

has been found recently.

I fear that whoever took it from him sought to harm him.

Perhaps he was a victim

not only of the fire but also of a crime.

The records don't show any signs of murder.

However, he did have a few bruises.

Do you think someone...

They weren't fatal.

As victims of fire are often severely damaged,

all I can say is that no signs of murder were discovered.

WOORIM

My lord!

He had a burn on his arm.

Shall I drive you home, Young Master?

No.

I have made posts on various travel forums

so we should receive word soon.

How can I not recall anything

when I was at the scene that night?

How could I remember what happened 17 years ago?

Did you notice anything strange?

Anything strange?

Haven't you read the case report?

There were no signs of arson. It was just as written.

I'm sorry.

INSPECTOR PARK

Yes, Inspector Park?

I found it, Young Master.

One of my sources is an antique dealer

who was offered an incense burner Phony had previously stolen.

I checked just in case

and the seller looks similar to one of the club thugs.

-Let's go. -Yes, sir.

You're wasting your time.

I guarantee it's authentic.

Could you be any slower?

Don't buy it then!

Why are you so impatient, young man?

I'm telling you it's real!

Hello.

You bastard.

Don't come any closer.

One more step and I'll stab him.

Drop the knife. You have no way out anyway.

Screw you.

You're going to regret that!

Damn it.

That fan looks familiar.

You once said you let your fists do the talking

but would never steal.

Jeez, look at your nose bleeding.

I told you you'd regret it.

I'm very sorry.

KOREAN NATIONAL POLICE AGENCY

Does it hurt?

Of course it does.

All I did was stand watch.

Who ordered you to stand watch?

If I knew who they were, I wouldn't be alive.

So they get rid of anyone who knows their identity?

That's right.

And you had the guts to steal from someone like them?

Well, thanks to you pigs...

I mean officers, the deal fell through anyway.

Oh, "the deal"?

What deal?

You better start talking, you punk.

The thing is,

we had agreed to take the item to the meeting point for the deal.

Meeting point?

Where's that?

Meeting point?

SEONGSANGWAN

Could it be?

Is Seongsangwan connected to the case?

He's from Seongsan Village, isn't he?

NOW HIRING NEW EMPLOYEES TO JOIN US AT SEONGSANGWAN

Inspector Park,

Let us plant an insider here.

Are you thinking of an undercover operation?

I'll get on it.

SEONGSANGWAN

Just end it?

All of a sudden?

Your views are low and you're getting a lot of hate comments.

I think it's best to end the series.

Ms. Bodyguard?

-What are you doing? -Ms. Bodyguard!

Were you taking my phone number?

There's something I really want to ask you.

Don't even bother to ask it.

Leave.

Oh, come on.

I'll call you!

Open the gate!

-Do you know Seongsan Village? -Yes.

You'll find a man named Shin Su-keun there.

Deliver this to him.

Yes, ma'am.

Wait.

-But Seongsan Village... -Is hard to get into, yes.

But I want you to do everything you can to get in.

I despise the impossible.

No matter what happens,

this gift must be delivered to him in person, all right?

Understood.

HOW TO GET PAST SEONGSAN GATE

SEONGSAN VILLAGE IS NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

What do I do?

Maybe I could ask Yoon-bok.

I have his phone number, don't I?

The number you have dialed is currently unavailable.

-Oh, it's turned off. He must be busy. -You will be redirected to...

What do I do?

My goodness.

I failed to go see Master Kim before leaving.

TRAVEL ADDICTS FORUM 1 MESSAGE FROM EARTH LOVER

I went to Seongsan Village 17 years ago.

How can I help you?

SEONGSANGWAN

I SUPPORT YOU

IT'S BEEN 18 YEARS SINCE THE DAY I STARTED SPONSORING YOU.

THANK YOU FOR COMING SUCH A LONG WAY.

SEONGSANGWAN 2ND BRANCH

Jun-ho.

There's someone who would like to sponsor you.

If you accept their offer, they'll pay for your education

and help with your employment.

I SUPPORT YOU

SEONGSANGWAN

Your call cannot be completed. You will be redirected to...

Hey, Yoon-bok.

I'm on my way to Seongsan Village

and wanted to ask you how I could get in.

Call me when you see this.

SHIN YOON-BOK

Help yourself.

Greetings.

Good work, everyone.

-Thank you, my lord. -Good.

What on earth is he doing in his room?

Goodness!

Are you out of your mind?

The village is teeming with people.

Didn't I tell you not to take a step out of your room?

I even gave you food and a chamber pot.

You shouldn't be out and about. What if someone sees you?

I made sure no one was outside before I came in.

Just go back to your room.

Lady Yeoju.

You saw me last night,

didn't you?

Me?

You saw me, didn't you?

I have no idea what you're talking about.

Mom.

-Mom. -Hey there, son.

What brings you here?

Is someone inside? I heard voices.

No, that's ridiculous.

You must be so hungry that you're hearing things.

I swear I heard someone.

-No, you didn't. -Lady Yeoju!

-Goodness. -Jun-ho.

Were you watching online videos again, Lady Yeoju?

Did I not give you wireless earphones

so Grandfather would not scold you for the noise?

You're right, Young Master.

I just keep forgetting to use them.

It's gracious of you to give gifts to the common folk, Young Master.

How dare you?

My apologies, Young Master.

Mom.

Please enjoy your stay, Jun-ho.

How long are you going to live like this?

Come live with me away from here.

What I do might look lowly to you,

but I'm very proud to uphold our tradition.

You better watch your behavior in the outside world.

Don't tarnish our village's reputation.

What did this village ever do for me?

Someone else helped me from being treated like an animal.

But you don't even know who they are.

Keep taking money from a stranger and you might end up in trouble.

If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't be my own boss.

I'd still be treated like a servant. Am I wrong?

So Mom,

come live with me so you can be treated the way you deserve.

Nonsense! Enough with the crazy talk.

Just carry this for me.

There's so much to do.

Mom!

Hurry up!

-Here. -Is this it?

Yes.

Take your time with it.

Thank you.

I...

remember.

SHIN YOON-BOK UNREAD

Hello, one ticket please.

Thank you.

-You guys look so pretty! -How pretty!

One more time!

Cheese!

Let's take one over there.

SEONGSAN GATE

How pretty.

What a good day.

Stop right there.

Hello.

To introduce myself,

my name is Kim Hong-do.

I came from Seoul to deliver something to some man named Shin Su-keun.

"Some man"?

It's this.

I absolutely need to give this to him in person,

so could you let me in for a short moment?

No.

I'll just hand this to him and be out before you know it.

I said no.

Or maybe you could have him come out here?

Leave immediately.

Please, sir. Just this once.

Leave!

If you refuse, you will be forced out of the square.

What do I do?

SEONGSAN VILLAGE HANBOK RENTAL

Which family are you a member of?

I am the eldest daughter of Lord Kim.

Please open the gate.

Lord Kim...

Oh, Lord Kim?

I know his eldest daughter very well.

Please show your face.

How rude of you!

How dare you try to see the face of a lady?

Unless you seek to be punished,

cease your harassment and open the gate now!

My goodness.

You watched too much TV.

It's not the olden days anymore. Women don't cover their faces now!

Unless you're hiding something that is.

My goodness!

You're a sly one, aren't you?

Guards!

Escort this criminal out of the square immediately!

Sir?

I'm sorry. Please don't do this!

Please, sir!

Stop!

-Yoon-bok! -Let go of her immediately.

Goodness.

Are you all right, Master?

Yeah, I'm fine.

What brings you all the way here?

Well, it has to do with work.

I need to deliver something to a man named Shin Su-keun.

Do you mean Lord Shin Su-keun?

Yeah.

Open the gate.

I cannot allow a stranger through the gate, Young Master.

I know her very well.

I will bear all the consequences, so open the gate.

I shall take her to him.

Let us go in.

Thanks, Yoon-bok.

Thank you.

Thank you.

As service here is nearly unavailable,

I did not realize you had contacted me.

My apologies.

Don't apologize. I'm actually very grateful.

You got me in.

It's as if time stood still here.

-Let us go. -Okay.

Hello.

What's that?

Oh, that.

They're so pretty.

This pavilion is more than 300 years old

and provides shelter for everyone in the village.

300 years old? That's amazing.

This way.

Kong Qiu said.

-"Kong Qiu said." -"Kong Qiu said."

Be strict with yourself.

-"Be strict with yourself." -"Be strict with yourself."

Be lenient with others.

-"Be lenient with others." -"Be lenient with others."

This institution was founded 200 years ago

and is also my alma mater.

It's a school?

That's so cool.

-This way, please. -Okay.

You won't believe this!

What are you two fussing about?

It's about Young Master Yoon-bok.

He's here with a lady!

-What? -Is she pretty?

Greetings, Lady Se-ryung.

I asked whether the lady was pretty.

I would say she is more pleasant

than pretty.

But something about her

is as peculiar as the fog that covers the peak of Seongsan.

What were they doing together?

They were walking toward Woorim Residence.

I see.

Is not the Shin family holding a memorial today?

Their whole family will be gathering together.

Could it be?

Will he introduce her?

-What? -Oh my.

The Shin family is going to have a lot to celebrate.

Celebrate what?

Young Master Yoon-bok has been promised to a lady since childhood.

Well, that was just a joke among the elders.

But a promise made in jest is still a promise.

Of course.

What's going on? Is it a special day?

We are holding a memorial.

I see.

I guess memorial services are taken very seriously here.

Please come this way.

You will need proper attire to see my grandfather.

Right.

Your grandfather?

No way.

Is Shin Su-keun...

Is Lord Shin Su-keun your grandfather?

Oh my.

I shall have someone assist you. Please wait here.

All right.

Are you Young Master's guest?

Young Master?

Oh, right. Yes, I am.

Come this way.

Okay.

Young Master?

I am here to escort you, Master.

Let us go.

Goodness.

Wait for me, Yoon-bok!

Did you invite this lady here, Yoon-bok?

Yes, Grandfather.

I have brought her here as she has something to deliver to you.

Madam Camille, my superior at work,

has asked me to deliver this to you in person.

Please forgive my impertinence.

Who did you say sent you here?

Madam Camille.

Would that old man open the gate?

Didn't you say he's as stubborn as a mule?

As long as Hong-do Kim delivers the gift,

he'll have no choice.

How are you so confident?

We are holding a family event.

Spend the night here and wait for my word.

You should get ready, Yoon-bok.

Yes, Grandfather.

How beautiful.

It seems I have found the most beautiful painting in Paris.

Paris

is overshadowed

by your beauty.

He gave me that key when he left me

and said this.

I shall store away our relationship in this box

and forget anything has happened.

Therefore,

you must forget me as well and live your life.

I don't want to.

Are you really choosing your family over me?

I am sorry.

If in the course of your life,

you ever wish to see me again,

this key will open my heart to you.

After so long,

she has finally sent this to me.

I shall inform you of Grandfather's word soon.

Okay.

Don't worry about me and do what you need to do.

YOON-BOK

One, two, three, four.

The last mark was in 2007.

That's when he was seven years old.

YI-BOK, 2004, 2003 YOON-BOK, 2007

"Yi-bok"?

I'd like to help.

Are you sure?

Yes. What can I do?

I have not seen you before. Which family are you from?

Actually, I'm from Seoul.

How do you know Young Master Yoon-bok?

She was Young Master's master.

His master?

At least, that's what he told me. Am I correct?

Well, yes.

I was his teacher at an academy,

not at school.

I see.

May I ask who the memorial is for?

Young Master Yoon-bok must not have told you.

We're commemorating Lord Shin Sa-do,

Young Master's father.

Lady Se-ryung here

graciously volunteers to help us prepare every year.

He had thought of me so dearly.

It's only right I do this.

COMMEMORATING THE DEATH OF SHIN SA-DO

SERVICE UNAVAILABLE

I can't get any signal.

I need to call Madam Camille.

I sent you a picture of Kim Chil-bok, the man who was tied up at the club.

It might not be his real name,

but could you please check if he has a criminal record?

Thank you.

Goodbye.

INSPECTOR PARK

NEW MESSAGE

This is why I asked for your name, Ms. Bodyguard.

With this episode, I am concluding the series.

I hope to come back with better content.

See you again soon.

"Oh Yun-a"?

Her name is Yun-a?

Yun-a!

Yun-a!

WRITER KIM

Strong lady Oh Yun-a!

You will be the muse of my story starting today.

From, Weak Man.

Take care.

We shall take our leave now.

Thank you for coming.

And again, I am grateful for your help every year, Se-ryung.

It is the duty of a lady to assist in her neighbors' matters.

How commendable.

You are too generous, my lord.

You should be more honest.

Ever since she could walk,

she has talked about wanting to marry Young Master Yoon-bok.

That is why she is here.

Father.

Is that true?

I can actually see the stars here.

This is amazing.

Look at that one.

TO LADY CAMILLE

Deliver this to the lady.

Yes, Grandfather.

A very long time ago,

I left her with an emotional debt.

She seeks to host a fashion show in Seongsan Village.

What will you do?

I cannot let any harm befall the village once again.

Right.

Se-ryung was here earlier.

Is it not time for you to think of marriage?

She is upright, kind, and capable of handling household matters.

Most importantly, she thinks of you dearly.

You could not find a better spouse.

I shall handle my own marriage, Grandfather.

By any chance,

do you have someone else in mind?

I shall inform you in time.

So please do not worry about my marriage.

Good night, Grandfather.

I shall inform you in time.

So please do not worry about my marriage.

Does he really

have feelings for someone else?

What's happening to me?

Why is my heart racing?

NOW HIRING NEW EMPLOYEES TO JOIN US AT SEONGSANGWAN

Is there something you wish to say to me?

What?

Oh, it's nothing.

Yoon-bok,

by any chance,

do you have feelings...

Well, what I mean is...

Do...

Do you like...

a certain type of food?

I enjoy eating vegetables.

Oh, right.

You've told me that.

Well, do you like...

Yoon-bok!

EPILOGUE

Are you certain Kim Chil-bok came to the village 17 years ago?

Very well.

Ask Inspector Park to find out if he has a criminal record.

YOON-BOK, I'M ON MY WAY TO SEONGSAN VILLAGE...

For what reason would Master Kim visit Seongsan?

How rude of you!

How dare you try to see the face of a lady?

Unless you seek to be punished, cease your harassment

-and open the gate now! -Master Kim?

Guards!

Escort this criminal out of the square immediately!

-Sir? -Stop!

I'm sorry. Please don't do this!

Do you know anything about Yoon-bok's ex?

Wait, so that's why!

Yoon-bok!

I missed you, Yoon-bok.

May I ask who you are?

Do I have to answer that?

-Excuse me? -No.

Just open it!

How are you still so stubborn as a mule after all these years?

Stubborn?

Administrator Lee.

-Escort this lady out of the village. -What?

A nobleman like Yoon-bok would never do that.

Our relationship was severed a long time ago.

What do you say we tie it back up?

I've looked up every Kim Chil-bok in the country and no one looks like this.

Either his name is fake, or he got plastic surgery,

or he's a ghost.

It's one of the three.

No matter what, I'm going to end you tonight.

Stop right there!
