You...
Won....

I was so close.

Not Dae Joyoung....

But Li Kaigu`s kingdom could`ve been created on this land...

Build a state stronger and more
magnificent than Tang and Goguryeo.

If anyone can do it, you can.

Farewell.

You`ve been a worthy opponent.

General!

All is as it should be at last.

Chulin...?
Chulin!

What is this?
What have you done?

Forgive me.

Me, Khitan and General Li Kaigu.....
Forgive us all....

Chulin!

Please take care of Geom.

-He is our son...
-Chulin..!

Wake up, chulin.
You can`t die like this.

Chulin!

Wake up, Chulin!

You can`t die like this!
Chulin!

Your Highness!!

What are you doing here?

I ordered you to go after Xue Rengui and Li Wen.

What are you doing here?

I will accept my punishment for insubordination.

-I must take care of them.
-Stop!

Turn back.

-They brought me into this world and raise me.
-Li Kaigu is a murder and a criminal of high treason!

You will not be forgiven if you defy me.

You may visit the grave later,
but you must leave them for now.

You must.
Do you understand?

What are you waiting for?

General!

Prtince Geom!

Prince Geom!

General.

Welcome, general.

Why are all these people gathered here?

They flocked to see you when they heard you had arrived.

We`ve been preparing for the foundation
of the new state in your absence.

All we have to do now is to select an auspicious date
and declare the commencement of the new state.

But first we need a King for the new state to begin.

We must bring the people together and
select a sovereign to rule the new Kingdom.

The people have already spoken.

These are the leaders representing each township.

They seek in united voice to bring
General Dae Joyoung to the throne.

We beseech you.
Be our ruler.

Be our ruler!!!
Be our King!!!

Listen to them.

The will of the people is the will of heaven.

Your rise to the throne is heaven`s decree.

Don`t ignor the Heaven`s decree.
Rise to the throne and rule this land.

Rise to the throne!!!!
Rule the land for us!!!!

Hear me!

I have not for a moment given up on my dream of
reviving the Kingdom since the day Goguryeo fell.

It took thirty long years for one man`s
dream to become a dream of all people.

The dream that would`ve ended only a dream has
become a reality on this land because of all of you.

I am proud of you, and I thank you.

If you, the true heroes of this land
call upon me to lead the new regime.

I will regard it as divine command and accept the challenge.

I will be your new King.

But there is one thing that must be made clear.

The name and era of our new state
will be decided at a later time

but let there be no mistake about our roots.

We are a successor state of Goguryeo!

Just like our predecessor state, we will
rise tall at the heart of this continent.
The new Goguryeo will be declared!

Hail the new King!
Hail the new Goguryeo!

Thirty years after the fall of Goguryeo in the year 608.

Dae Joyoung finally establish a new state
centered around Dongmo Mountain.

Endind an era of confusion,
Balhae had finally been born.

This was truly a startiling event
in the ancient history of China.

Not only did Goguryeo reclaim their right to the
continent but they were back in contention with Tang.

The most powerful state at the time, to write new history.

This unbelievable feat was accomplished by Dae Joyoung.

Allow me to congratulate you on your
ascension to the throne, Your Majesty.

Allow us to congratulate you, Your Majesty!!

We have just declared a brand new state.

But we`ve succeeded Goguryeo
a thousand year kingdom,
~Dae Joyoung:The first King of Balhae~

hence we can proudly say that our
potential is a thousand years as well.

I will now announce

The leaders that will represent the civil and military government.

Jang Sanhae you have been appointed

Prime Minister to attend to the livelihood
of the state and represent the cabinet.

Your grace is infinite, Your Majesty.
~Jang Sanhae~

General Gulsabiwu, you will lead the military
as the Great General of the royal army.

Your grace is immeasurable, Your Majesty!
~Gulsabiwu~

With these two men as top leaders
of the government, I will orfineze the regime

and establish new laws and find
competent men to run the government.

Let us not forget that everything
we do is the people of this state.

Here I also declare the name of this new state
as Balhae and the era name CHeontong.

Your grace is immeasurable, Your Majesty!

Hail the King!
Hail Great Balhae!

According to Chinese records Dae Joyoung`s state
was first named Jin then renamed Balhae several
decade later.

But taking into account a record in the
Old Book of Tang that the Tang Emperor

had appointed Dae Jungsang"Lord of Jin state" in an
attempt to appease him it is likely"jin" was a name
Tang gave Balhae to denigrate the country.

Balhae refers to the Bohai Sea the modern day lake Jingpo.

The new state`s multi-ethnic population may be
the reason why it was named after a region.

Dae Joyoung`s new regime was object of intimidation
for Tang so much so that they would fight a
war of nerves over it`s name.

How is he?

Another mental trauma or
disturbance will be detremental.

You may go.

Nothing can disturb me more than I already am...

I heard that the Imperial court wants me back.

I will go instead.You stay and take care of yourself.

They`re not going to let you live either.
~Xue Rengui~

I`m going to die anyway.
I`ll take the fall for this alone.

I can`t let you die to save myself, sir.
~Li Wen~

How did it come to this?

General!!

-General, there is most terrible news!
-Be quiet.

Things can`t get any more terrible than this.

Brace yourself for this, sir.
Dae Joyoung that bastard has....

Stop!
Don`t tell him!

Dae Joyoung has declared a new state!

What? Dae Joyoung has declared a new state?

Yes, general.

He named his state Balhae and became a King.

A King?

Dae Joyoung has become a King?

General...!

Dae Joyoung that bastard...!

General!

-General, get a hold of yourself!
-Is anyone out there?

General!!!!

How is he?

He`s stable now, but he has to be very careful.

This is my fault.
If I hadn`t opened my big mouth...

What`s wrong with you?
Are ever going to grow up?

Do you think I want to be like this? I`m
trying hard to be more careful but it`s not easy.

I don`t know how General Xue
has tolerated you all these years.

Watch it!
General Xue and I are inseparable!
~Hongpei~

That`s why he is in that condition!

-What did you say? That`s it I`ve had enough of you.
-What? You want to fight me?

Be quiet!

General!

General....

Balhae, was it?

Dae Joyoung`s new state.

Yes, general, it`s Balhae.

Balhae...
....

General, perhaps we should swim with the tide now.

Swim with the tide?

Accept Dae Joyoung as the final victor?

Dae Joyoung has conquered the
east of the northern region after all.

No,no.

I`m not dead yet.

And my fight against Dae Joyoung isn`t over yet.

General....

Li Wen, I need you to go to Chang`an and see the Emperor.

I will tell you one final way to get rid of Dae Joyoung

so inform the Emperor.

Final way to get rid of Dae Joyoung?

Come close.

You`ve turned down every position I`ve offered.
Are you determined not to have an official post?

With official post comes formalities and protocols.
I prefer to serve you without any encumbrances
like now.

Yes, I suppose your right.
How could one place a rank on the
King`s teacher?

Past events are flashing before my
eyes sitting here with you like this.

We`ve been through much tearful hardship...

But it`s too soon to relax
and let out our tears just yet.

Danger still lurks around the corner.

I know what you mean.

But Tang military has been drastically weakened
after they lost their great army on Chunmunryeong.

Emperor Zetian can call in foreign
aid and attack us anytime she wants.

Foreign aid? Are you referring to the Turks in Liaobei?

Muchuo is certain to bear ill will toward you
after the encounter at the Liao River Fort.
~Mimosa~

And now that you`ve declared a new state,
imagine how he might feel.

But the Turks have a worse relationship
with Tang than they do with us.

Alliance and betrayal is prevalent
between countries for national profit
and self preservation.

Muchuo....
Turks forming an alliance with Tang..?

We don`t have the military resources
to hold them back at this point.

But there`s one way to resolve this.

Form an alliance with the Turks before the Tang Chinese do.

Is that feasible?

It`s a difficult task but our borders must be secure
in order for the new state to lay a strong foundation.

We must form an alliance with
the Turks no matter what it takes.

I agree with you completely, but who
will assume such an importan task?

That`s the problem.

I want to go myself, but there`s so
much pressing works to do here...

His Majesty is here to see you.

-What brings you here at this late hour?
-I`ve come to see you.

Your Majesty, you are the King of this state.
If you had summoned me,
~Li Geom~

-I would`ve come to you instead.
-Just weeks ago,

I was fighting shoulder to shoulder
with the soldiers on the battlefield.

-Why do you sound so humble?
-Things are different now.

You are the father of a country revered by all.

What can I do for you?

I have a secret assignment for you.

A secret assignment?

I need you to make a trip to Liaobei.

You must find Muchuo and settle something for me.

Settle with the Turks?
Do you speak of forming an alliance?

You catch on quickly.

We must form an alliance before they join forces
with Tang so we can form a solid foundation of
the new state without fears and restraint.

Do you understand?

Why don`t you answer?

This is too important for me to handle.

-That`s exactly why I`m assigning you with the task.
-But if I fail....

If you succeed, you will have rendered a monumental
service that no one on the court can call into question.

But that`s a secondary matter.

This cannot fail for the sake of the country.

That`s all the more reason why this job is for you.
I know you can do this.

There is no doubt Tang will dispatch a diplomatic
envoy as well. This is another war.

Not the kind you fight with swords but a diplomatic war.
We must not be defeated. Do you understand?

I will give it my all.

Did you wish to see me, Your Highness?

I`m told His Majesty sent Geom to
the Turks on a diplomatic mission.

-Is it true?
-Yes.

This is a critical withthe fate of the nation at stake.
Why would His Majesty send Geom alone
~Sukyoung:Queen Of Balhae~

-on a mission that requires a team of delegates?
-I did not anticipate this decision.

You should have stopped him. Who would be
held accountable if Geom fails the negotiation?

Perhaps it is not Geom`s failure but
his succes that concerns you more.

If General Geom suceeds, he will
gain huge recognition in the court.

Perhaps that`s what His Majesty had in mind.
Isn`t that your concern, Your Majesty?

I don`t know what His Majesty could be thinking.
What are his plans for Geom?

General Geom has rendered distinguished
sevices in the founding of this state.

If he is ever recognized as His Majesty`s son
he could seek to succeed the throne.

That would be an outrage.

We are trying to lay a strong foundation of the new state.

Leaving the royal blood to be carried
on by a man of Khitan descent? Never!

Those are my sentiments as well.

We are the successor state of Goguryeo,
so the heir to the throne must be your
offspring from the royal line of Goguryeo.

It`s a great relief to hear that we agree on this.

But His Majesty seems to have a different idea.
What are we to do?

Let us see what happens.

Tang will surely attempt to form
an alliance with the Turks as well.

It`s not going to be easy for General
Geom to succeed in this mission.

Have you all suddenly become mute?
~Chang`an, Tang~

Dae Joyoung has declared a new state.

He`s become a King!

How can you be silent?

If you can`t come up with ideas to
undo this, scream, sigh, say something!

Your Majesty, I beg you to be calm.

Calm?

You are the top leaders of Tang,
and all you can say is be calm?
~Emperor Wu Zetian~

Your Majesty, this so called new state is nothing more
than an assemblage of thieves in Mt.Dongmo region.

That`s right, Your Majesty.

We can obliterate them anytime we wish.

Silence!

Are you saying that we lost hundreds of
thousand of Tang soldiers to a horde
of thieves?

No, Your Majesty, but...

There is no way in hell I`m going to
allow Dae Joyoung to control the north.

Find a way to mitigate this situation,
or I will have your heads!

Your Majesty, General Li Wen has arrived from Yingzhou.

What?
Li Wen?

My order was to bring back General Xue Rengui as well.

Why isn`t he here?

I`m afraid General Xue is gravely ill and confined to his bed.

You have lost a war that must have be won.

Do you know the severity of your crime?

Of course, Your Majesty.
~Li Wen~

But I beg you to give us another chance.

Another chance?

Is there a way to destroy that
hideous state they call Balhae?

We will bring in Muchuo.

That boorish Turkic barbarian?

That`s the only option we have left.

But our alliance with the Turks has been broken.

Muchuo prides himself on being
the supreme power of the north.

But Dae Joyoung has captured half
of the north and declared himself King.

It`s got to be hard on Muchuo to swallow.

Bring in Muchuo once again?

He will not trust us again after the phony
prince we sent to marry his daughter.

We`ve got to do whatever it takes
to convince Muchuo to attack Balhae.

-And you think you can do this?
-Yes, Your Majesty.

This is my final chance to serve you.

I will negotiate an alliance with the Turks without fail.

Go to Liaobei at once.

I can`t tolerate another day with Dae Joyoung on a throne.

I will carry out your command, Your Majesty!

Muchuo...

Bring in the Turks again...?

Envoy of Great Balhae bids greeding to Muchuo Khan.

What?

"Great Balhae"?
~Muchuo:Turkic Khan~

Dae Joyoung is rising up in the world.
He`s founded a new country for himself.

So, why does the King of Balhae send his envoy?
~Inel:Muchuo`s son~

My King wishes to establish friendly relations with you.

Friendly relations?

-Dae Joyoung wants us to be friends?
-Yes.

Cultural exchange and friendly competition will
provide a platform for mutual advancement.
~Li Geom~

Then are you prepare to comply to all our request?

I`ve been sent here to negotiate.

If we open up our hearts and discuss our
needs, nothing will block our progress.

Balhae is indeed our friend if you agree to our terms
but if you refuse, we will consider Balhae as an
enemy state.

You should leave now if you`re not prepared.

I`m prepared to hear your requests.

First, we want unconditional promise
of military assistance upon request.

Second, you must send a shipment
of tributary goods to us every year.

Balhae is near water, so there should
be special local marine products.

Thirdly, horse pastures dry out in the winter in Liaobei.
You will send mininmum of five hundred horses
to us each year.

How do they sound?
Could you agree to the terms?

I will consider them carefully and
give you an answer in the morning.

Give these men food and accommodations.

Yes, Khan.
This way.

Those are heavy conditions for
a country that`s just starting out.

If they do accept the conditions,
it wont be a bad deal for us.

I can`t wait to see how he decides...

Sir.

-They are bent on making us thier tributary state.
You cannot accept these conditions.

We will have more to lose than gain in this kind of alliance.

I`m glad you are here.
I`m feeling rather frustrated.

Is it because of Geom?

You put a very heavy burden on his shoulders.

I`m concerned about the
future of this state, not Geom.

I`ve been serving you like your shadow for decades.
~Gulsabiwu~

I know what you`re worried about
deep down inside.

We need to proclaim the Heir Apparent
to the throne once things settle.

And you have Geom in mind.

Watch your tongue!

Mimosa`s been frequenting the Queens chambers lately.
Her Highness is also quite worried about the heir.

That`s enough!

My leadership policies have not changed.

I assign possitions base on ability, not on status and origin.

Same goes for Geom.

If he pulls off this important task and
delivers the country from impending peril,
he will be rewarded appropriately.

But if he fails, I could have him removed from the palace.

Your Majesty....

I need talent more than I need a son right now.

And I pray that Geom will come through for us, that is all.

So, do you have an answer?

Yes, Khan.

Speak.

We will comply with all of your requests.

All of them?

You will provide military aid, send us
tributary and horses every year?

Yes, but there are conditions to each request.

Conditions?

We will provide you with military
assistance anytime you ask.

However, at the present time, our military
resources are insufficient to defend
our own country.

To send military aid, we would need to
build our army for at leadt three years.
Give us that time.

And the tributary goods?

Things are though for us just starting out a new state.

We will send the goods you desire, but we will do
what we can on the first year and increase
the amount each year there after.

How about the horses? Can you
deliver five hundred every year?

There are vast pastures that stretch as far
as the eyes can see along Songhwa River,
but horses are scarce.

Send us your superior breeding horses.

-What?You want our breeding horses?
-Yes, Khan.

If we breed them with care,

I`m sure we can send you more
than five hundred each year.

Silence!

You have not agreed to any of our request as they are!

But all conditions are still to Turks`
benefit and not to your harm.

This is nothing more than a scam.

Don`t fall for it, Father.

You are a clever man.

You have ingeniously averted all potential problems.

The decision is your now, Khan.

Khan, An envoy has arrived from Tang.

What?
A Tang envoy?

Yes.

It`s Li Wen.

Li Wen?

What? Geom is here as Dae Joyoung`s envoy?

Yes, sir. There`s no mistake.

Good.

This will be my chance to exact revenge.
He won`t be leaving here alive!

You are a lucky man as well.

How about it?
Can you defeat Li Wen in a face off?

I will make my decision about our
alliance with Balhae after the match.

Are you up for it?

Call Li Wen in.
