Why?

Are you sad?

Are you afraid?

What's the matter?

Are you afraid?

To overcome fear,

there are two possible ways...

Run away...

or just rage.

Who are you?

What's the matter?

Are you a shrine maiden?

Princess Cheonmyeong never ran away from me, nor did she even rage at me.

She is a person who is about to sacrifice someone like you and Yushin.

She isn't qualified to be anyone's master.

Therefore, go to Cheonmyeong and relay everything that I said.

At once...

If she doesn't run away at once...

Then, what's left of Yushin... and you.

She will witness and experience the agony of losing everything.

And... relay the following to Yushin.

The longer he resists, the more bloodstained cries of the Gaya people will ring out to his ears.

Go and relay my message... and bring back their replies.

Episode 17

Why have you come out again?

I have been searching everywhere for you.

For someone who has no sense,

how are you able to keep running away?

Something is strange at the eastern side of the shrine.

What is so strange?

There is no door, but the incense smoke seems to flow towards the north,

which could only mean a hollowness exists inside the wall.

Inside the shrine... the east wall?

5,000 Gaya migrants on the outskirts of Seorabeol, in Daeryang valley, will be driven out 200 ri [80 km],

outside of Seorabeol's boundaries,

and will cultivate the land of Samyang Ju.

Also, the shrine representing Gaya migrants at Daeryang valley will be demolished...

and a new temple will be built on that site.

Yes, Your Majesty!

Your edict will be announced and executed as soon as possible.

Even with an edict, how can we just drive out people who are innocent?

Didn't you also witness the lunar eclipse?

If we do nothing, then our Heavenly Kingdom will suffer great calamities.

Doesn't it seem too cruel for people who have just settled down?

Seju Mishil even granted them a parcel of land so they could rebuild.

So, how is that cruel?

Deokchung Rang... It's barren land!

What can they do with barren land?

Thus...

Are you now blaming Seju?

I'm not siding with Seju Mishil nor anyone else for that matter.

I am merely a part of the 10 Hwarangs.

As such, am I not at liberty to speak my mind?

By all means...

But...

Archeon Rang...

It seems as though you have changed your colors.

By you always siding with Seju, because you belong on her side,

it is actually no different than insulting her.

Mother, just looking at Kim Seohyeon's face is somewhat priceless.

When his *Jingeol status was reinstated because of Empress Manho,

*Jingeol = "true bone" royal lineage

he must have thought that all of Shilla belonged to him.

Yes.... that Kim Seohyeon.

Speaking of him, he has been meeting frequently with some Gaya Personnel,

and he has slowly started to build his power with their support.

Anyways, I have successfully finished my part of the job.

So now it's up to the two of you to finish the rest.

I will now persecute those Gaya personnel whom Kim Seohyeon had been meeting with.

Then, what am I suppose to do?

Aigoo... Now that we've forced Kim Seohyeon to run the gauntlet,

you must quickly do your part and entice him over to our side.

Isn't that right, Nunim?

Dear... what is he trying to say?

I want you to convince Empress Manho...

and start preparing for a wedding between Kim Seohyeon's family and our family.

A wedding...? With whom?

By chance, you mean you... again?

Not me... It will either be with our daughter or between Hajong's daughter and Kim Yushin.

What? Kim Yushin?

Mother! You can make them a promise or give them something in return,

but to go through with a marriage as well...

Does that make any sense at all?

In order to lure someone to our side, we must first show our strength...

and only then join hands.

If not, they will rise against us.

If Kim Seohyeon were to rise up against us,

it will be directly related to everything that is Gaya and its rebirth.

That's right... Kim Seohyeon has no real ties with Shilla.

I guess he will try to reincarnate the golden crown of Gaya.

I'm sure Kim Seohyeon must have pondered many thoughts because of this incident.

But Mother, must you... with my daughter... Is that really necessary?

She is still young.

Princess... *Nangdo Deokman is here.

*subordinate title (for a vassal)

Deokman?

What if she is revealed...? Tell him to come in immediately.

Yes, Ma'am.

If it was urgent, you should've asked to meet with me in secrecy.

So, why did you come here directly?

Lady Mishil... knew about everything already.

She even knew that I was acting as a spy.

A guest has came to visit you...

Aren't you going to ask that person to have a seat?

Please have a seat.

Although I don't know the reason for your visit...

Yushin Rang... Why don't you go and tell the kitchen to bring some tea.

Your son's spirit is quite remarkable.

You're now part of our inner political circle, and yet you seem so distant.

Are you here to tell us that our time to mull things over has expired?

Or...

Have you come here to demand that we surrender at this very spot?

What do you mean by "surrender"?

You must have misunderstood what I've said to you previously.

Then, why did you suddenly come here to visit us?

Please hand over your son to me.

Then, I will raise him to become the best Hwarang in Shilla.

If he were to become Shilla's best Hwarang, then...

won't his future be set?

And that is how Lord Seohyeon, Lady Manmyeong, and this worthless Mishil...

Let us join hands.

That is a road on which you can survive.

Do you think that it's my desire to drive out those talented Gaya personnel

that great King Jinheung purposely raised up?

Really... Is that what Mishil said?

And what's left of Yushin and you...

That I will witness and experience the agony of losing everything?

Now I am really sick and tired of it all.

Mishil has given me nothing but fear ever since I was a child.

Sometimes... I even had difficulties... just trying to breathe.

What does she mean by handing over our son to her?

She probably meant by arranging a marriage.

Father, what was your reply?

It cannot happen.

Yushin Rang...

She is responsible for driving out innocent Gaya people.

So now, a marriage?

Why didn't you say no and tell her to leave?

What can you solve by raging?

If I had responded by saying no, leave,

then she would have retaliated by releasing the rest of the wrath from Sadaham's *Maehwa.

*maehwa = plum blossom

Then, what will happen to our family and to you?

Without even knowing Mishil's next move,

why must you act with rage first instead of being more prudent?

No, we cannot... We must act with rage first.

Not with what's good for our family, but instead, we must act with rage first.

Not about being political, but instead, we must act with rage first.

And even before thinking about Mishil's plan, we must act with rage first.

Because we do not, we are always playing into Mishil's hands.

And by Mishil using our fear against us, we are unable to rage, think, or even act.

Then, without any evaluation, you would rather die?

Yes, if that is necessary.

If we can place all responsibilities for political mishaps on Mishil's hand...

If we can show all people that Mishil is not a Heavenly messenger,

but let them know she's responsible for thousands of people shedding tears of blood for her own benefit.

If I could, I would.

Be quiet.

Do you know what your forefathers went through in order to protect this family?

How can you speak with such immaturity when you know what I had to put up with?

The fact that not all Gaya people became slaves...

Also the fact that Gaya people managed to stay together and survive, despite great suffering...

So how can you act this way, when you already know these facts?

Yushin Rang...

Yushin Rang... What are you doing? This is not allowed!

Yushin Rang... Stop this! Princess!

Princess, do you consider politics to be first and foremost?

Do you also think about scheming a plan first?

Are you trembling because you feel helpless and defeated?

Are you feeling the same?

Are you also worrying about how you can fight someone like that?

If that's the case...

then... I will now...

let go of you, Princess.

If that's the case, I will now...

abandon you as well.

To overcome fear, there are two possible ways...

Run away...

or just rage.

Rage must come first.

The explosion of emotions that human beings feel comes first.

Whenever Mishil pulls out her magical schemes, then everyone is afraid.

Even those who were victims do not think of raging, and instead, they just tremble in fear.

Shouldn't we rage first and foremost?

On this land... Within these realms...

there is no one who will oppose and rage against Mishil.

I was wrong Yushin Rang.

You are right.

The reason why Mishil schemed all those plans was to... instill fear in us.

Therefore...

She is trying to make us incapable of doing anything.

That is just unacceptable.

We shouldn't accept that.

We will never do that again... So, please do not abandon us.

About letting go of the princess...

That must not happen.

Cheonmyeong...

Deokman...

Yushin...

The three of us...

I will not speak about you having to become my Hwarang.

Just that...

I will become your Hwarang, Princess.

Instead, as the master of my clan, Yonghwa Hyangdo...

Please do not ever cry again.

I... want to be of help to you at least once.

I would also like to save you!

I can do it!

Look here.

How rude.

Being narrow minded,

you might be able to become some local or town leader,

but you will never become a great figure.

Just like during our earlier lifetime, we are here together once again.

Together in this current lifetime,

we will face any disappointments and endure any tribulations.

Whether we are reborn into a life of joy or reborn into a life of hellish fire,

we will go through it together.

3003...

3004...

One...

Two...

Three...

What are you thinking about so intensely?

Ahh... Yes.

Where is Yushin Rang?

Since he must be feeling distraught over recent matters,

I was going to console him by buying him a drink.

Our Yushin Rang does not find comfort in drinks,

so he went to Yeoham mountain in order to find comfort by training alone.

Is that right?

So, how is it that you aroused Yushin Rang's suspicion of you?

Suspicion?

Yushin Rang seems to have kept you under surveillance?

Oh, that... It's nothing at all.

I was actually on my way to settle that matter.

For a Hwarang, one's master is Heaven, but the vassals that follow him are the ground.

If he is unable to plant his feet firmly on the ground, then he will not be able to stand upright.

Therefore, do well...

and do not cause any misunderstandings.

Yes, Sir... There won't be any more of incidents of that nature.

But... when are you going to buy me a drink?

Drink?

I'm talking about when we returned from the war...

You said that I would be owed a debt for your deep awakening and for your life.

Therefore, didn't you say that you would pay me back in a big way?

Were you not talking about buying me a drink?

The debt was for my life, so a mere drink just won't cut it...

Think much bigger than that.

Much bigger?

Then, I'll expect something big in return from you.

So, you are here.

I've come here with the replies you've been wanting.

Both the Princess and Yushin Rang have decided not to become your "people".

Is that right?

Both of them shutter at the idea.

I almost got reprimanded for even mentioning the idea.

Because both of them are quite fearless,

they plan on seeing this through to the end.

Since I've passed on their message, I will take my leave now.

And you?

What about you?

Why haven't you given your answer?

Do you share the same thoughts as your master?

I've just asked about you!

Of course...

I have to see this through all the way to the end as well.

This is the great King Jinheung.

Great King Jinheung?

When King Jinheung was young man, he once used that *seoyeopdo to slay a tiger.

* the small jeweled and gilded knife

Seoyeopdo?

And he mentioned that being on the emperor's throne felt like a tiger always biting on his arm.

Therefore, in order for King Jinheung to oppose the tiger...

he said that he needed to gather up people.

He also stated, those who are able to gather up people

will gain the world and become the master of their era.

All of you... If you wish to fight Mishil...

you must first gather up more people.

Only then... don't you think it will be a worthwhile fight for me?

If this belongs to King Jinheung...

Then... why am I in possession of an heirloom that belongs to the royal family?

Does this mean that... I am somehow connected to the royal family?

How is he?

Fortunately, his cornea doesn't appear to have been damaged that badly.

If we continue with the treatments... then his chances seem pretty good.

Are you saying that he will be able to see again?

Yes, indeed.

How fortunate... very fortunate.

Yes... Thank you, My Lady.

But... what about that woman?

She is always trying to go outside.

And she doesn't eat her meals.

She has an ailment of the "heart"...

Therefore, if she doesn't find what she has lost, then her chances aren't too good.

Since she lost her daughter...

Her wounds must be very deep.

All of you... If you wish to fight Mishil...

You must first gather up more people.

Only then... don't you think it will be a worthwhile fight for me?

Did you convey the message to Mishil?

Yes, Ma'am.

What did she say?

That we should gather up people.

People?

In other words, if we want to fight against her... then we must build up our strength.

By the way, I didn't have the chance to tell you this yesterday, but...

Definitely... the shrine appears to have a secret place inside of it.

Is that so?

Although she doesn't appear to be a shrine maiden,

there's a lady inside the shrine who seems to have lost her senses.

Surprised, I tried to follow her, but she suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Is that so?

Yushin Rang seems to know the location, so...

when he returns from training I'll ask him for more details.

Just wait a bit longer.

Yes, Ma'am.

By the way... Do you by chance have any idea what a *seoyeopdo is?

* = an ornament or jewelry item

"seoyeopdo"...?

What is that?

It was depicted in a painting of King Jinheung that Lady Mishil drew.

Since she mentioned it was a small dagger that was highly treasured by King Jinheung,

then it must be a royal family heirloom.

Is that so?

But, I've never heard of it before.

If it was a royal family heirloom, then there is no way that I wouldn't know about it.

Then... why don't you look into it?

It just seems strange that only Mishil knows about an heirloom that belonged to King Jinheung.

I think there might be a secret behind it.

Therefore, please find out the whereabouts of the seoyeopdo...

and to whom it was given.

It might be a good idea to find out in more detail.

OK... I will.

Seoyeopdo?

Why are you suddenly asking about that?

I was told that it was in a painting of King Jinheung that Mishil drew.

I'm sure it's a royal family heirloom, but I've never seen it nor heard about it.

That's right...

You've never seen it before.

If it's King Jinheung's item, then it's a royal family heirloom...

How could I not have seen it before?

That is...

As King Jinheung was about to pass away, he gave it to His Majesty.

He said it was small and yet it had protected him...

Therefore, it was given to him to protect himself and his family.

And...?

His majesty gave that to me when I was pregnant with you.

With that, I was able to survive Mishil's scheme.

Mishil's scheme?

Mishil wanted to become queen,

so she attempted to kill us by throwing me and Munno into the ocean.

But with the seoyeopdo I had in my possession,

Lord Munno was able to cut through the rope.

So, there was such an incident.

So... Was the seoyeopdo given to Lord Munno?

How could we have given Lord Munno a relic that belonged to King Jinheung?

Then, do you have it in your possession?

That is...

No, I don't.

Then, where is it?

Where is it?

We lost it...

If it saved both me and you, isn't that really an important item?

Then, how...

It just happened that way...

I don't know beyond that.

What did you say? Seoyeopdo...?

Yes... I heard that it was an item that definitely belonged to you.

What did you do with the seoyeopdo?

I gave it to Munno.

Are you saying that you really gave it to Lord Munno?

That's right... That's what I said.

What do you mean you gave it to Munno?

You said without a doubt...

that you buried it along with the other twin princess.

That is...

Cheonmyeong suddenly asked about the seoyeopdo, so I became startled and told her a false story.

Truly... Did you bury it?

Why do you keep bringing up an agonizing memory?

I clearly said...

that I buried the seoyeopdo along with the other twin and Sohwa, who witnessed the birth.

My apologies...

Your Majesty... Please, get hold of your senses.

That decision was made for the sake of our Heavenly Kingdom.

The look on my mother and of His Majesty seemed a bit strange.

What do you mean by strange?

They said the seoyeopdo was passed down to His Majesty from King Jinheung.

His Majesty...?

But, the whereabouts of the seoyeopdo is unknown.

While His Majesty said he'd given it to Munno, my mother said that it was lost.

Both of them are saying two different things.

That's why I said it was strange.

Why are you inquiring about that?

Do you have any more knowledge in regards to the seoyeopdo?

I... do not.

Are you really certain?

Yes... I am.

You said your mother was a maiden named Sohwa, right?

Yes... You said that when you checked with *Gambu Daejeon,

you weren't able to find out much of anything.

*Department in charge of regulating slaves of the royal family.

That's right, I did.

Were you able to find anything more?

No... I did not.

King Jinheung's item...

His Majesty's item...

How did that item end up in my possession...?

How can I find out?

How?

Why are you so late?

Don't you know that His Majesty reads the internal affairs reports first thing in the morning?

My apologies.

Why are you so late?

In discussing the issues about the Gaya people,

Archeon Rang and I stayed up late having drinks, so I was unable to go to the office building.

The internal affairs reports which should have been prepared last night

must have been done this morning.

My apologies.

Then, you should have requested that another Hwarang take care of it for you.

Are you on your way from visiting with the princess this morning?

Yes, Sir.

After hearing from the princess, it did clear up the misunderstandings about you, but...

Daedeung Eulje still has concerns.

You must be very diligent in handling matters regarding the princess.

Yes, Sir.

Princess, did you call for...?

What is the matter? You do not look well.

I need you to head over to the *Gambu Daejeon.

Department in charge of regulating slaves of the royal family.

To the *Gambu Daejeon?

You said you were friends with someone over there, right?

Yes, Ma'am.

About 20 years ago... Find out if there was a palace maid named Sohwa.

Did you say "Sohwa"?

But why do I need to ask my friend?

I want to find this out through your friend, and not by my going through an official capacity.

Through my friend Judan?

Even if they were here only briefly, it should be recorded in the slave registry.

So, examine it thoroughly.

And do it covertly.

Yes, Princess.

Woow... If this continues, isn't there going to be something bad that happpens?

After Yushing Rang went into the mountains, all he has been doing is whacking away at a boulder.

Since Gaya people ended up being like that...

I wonder if he is even eating properly.

Truthfully, it is said that Deokman went to Seju Mishil in order to find out about some things.

My point exactly... She could have at least given us a heads up.

We doubted him for no reason.

Why did he even have to go to that length in order to hide that from us?

Deokman, is just really...

That's because... all of you wretches have loose lips.

To be honest... I knew about it all along.

How could you have known that?

Hey you wretch, are my intuitions merely normal, huh?

I had that feeling coming to me, just like that.

Intuition, my foot.

Who's the one that kept saying to Doekman, "No, you can't do it... No, you can't.", huh?

You wretches... I was pretending the whole time, just pretending.

Have you guys ever pretended on purpose?

No.

You wretches sure know how to give an answer...

If you've never done it before, then just keep your mouth shut, OK?

Aigoooo... I'm sick of it... You're always telling us to keep our mouths shut.

Why you little punk! This is my first time saying that.

First time...?

You wretch, where and from whom are you going to hear this?

Anyways... I knew about this all along.

OK... Fight!

- Come on! Bring it on! - You little punk!

Bring it on!

OK... Come on up! Come up! Just come on up!

Hyeongnims...!

Oh, Deokman! You want to join in?

Give me a moment of your time.

What do you think he wants?

What do you think it is, you wretch?

It's another secret mission. Shhhh...

We'll be back, so keep on practicing, OK?

What? You're really going to give this to us?

That's right.

Noooo... I'm not doing it. No.

Why? Why not?

From the looks of things, your offering that to us can only mean it's a dangerous task.

Deokman...

These days, I have pretty maids that serve me food, we have just enough training, and

I'm about to go crazy with happiness because my belly is always full.

Therefore, do I really need to do it?

Noooo... I don't. So, you do it.

But I am still hungry.

You wretch... You're always hungry.

Anyways, I won't do it. You do it.

OK then, forget about it.

You want more for doing it, but this is all I have. And yes, it is a dangerous task.

If you want to do it, fine... If not, then don't.

Heyyyyyyyy... Why you little wretch, nothing gets past you, I mean nothing.

What is it?

When you have finished, then I'll give it to you.

What is this?

When did you have the time to draw this?

What does this say?

It's the assembly hall.

Assembly hall?

What is the assembly hall?

It's where the appeal reports are kept...

Don't ask, and just listen, you wretch...

You want us to steal appeal reports?

Not steal, but put one there.

Put one there?

If you follow the hallway, you'll find this room, here. That is where all the appeal reports are kept.

Then..?

Here... In that room, just place this there.

What is this?

You don't need to know what this is.

Can you do it?

So, all we have to do is place this in there, right?

All you have to do is place this in there and come back, OK?

You better not touch anything else, understand?

I got it... Place it in there. All we have to do is place it in there.

Yes, just place it in there.

- Just place it in there. - Just place it in there.

Wow, Hyeongnim, you are always prepared.

Do you know who I am?

Jukbang.

- Hey you? - What?

It's not even boiling, so put in down and follow me.

Hurry.

- I get thirsty. - Come on!

Stop being so pushy.

Follow me.

What happened to it?

Why is it wet?

I apologize.

On my way from the assembly hall, I encountered a sudden rain fall.

These are submitted to His Majesty, so you should have used more caution.

I will go and rewrite these again.

No need...

These reports don't need to have their written words fixed.

Quickly open them up and have them dried...

The ink has probably smeared.

Yes, Sir.

Did you find out?

Yes, there was a palace maid named Sohwa.

What? There was?

Which court was she in?

By chance, was she in Mishil's court?

No. Sohwa was His Majesty's palace maid.

His Majesty?

Yes..

But it was recorded that she died during the year of Imsul [year of the dog],

in the month of Shimyo [rabbit], on the day of Jeongchuk [ox].

In year of Imsul [dog], in month of Shimyo [rabbit], on the day of Jeongchuk (ox)?

Yes, it was on the date of your birth.

The date of your birth... Not only are the day and month the same, but even the year is exactly the same.

So it seems.

Lord Yongchun has arrived.

I understand, so you may take your leave now.

I've heard that it was urgent. What's the matter?

Please find out immediately what ever happened to Chilsuk and Munno.

By that you mean...

Chilsuk disappeared, so a memorial tablet was placed in his honor. And as for Munno...

No, not about that, but...

I want you to find out more details about when they disappeared

and what tasks they were working on.

What is your reason?

It has a connection to Lady Mishil, so I need to find out about something.

When I know something, I will tell you.

Yes, Ma'am.

About this... From where and how did this get in here?

What's wrong?

This is not an appeal report.

If it's not an appeal report, then what is it?

You do not need to know.

Immediately, bring the guards who were guarding the assembly hall last night.

Yes, Sir.

- Are you sure you did it properly? - Of course...

You know who I am.

All you did was put that in there and came back, right?

You didn't do anything else, right?

I didn't do anything else..., no way..., never.

Never.

Are you sure?

You wretch, why are you so suspicious?

Oh, Deokman, where are you going now?

Just because Yushin Rang isn't around,

these wretches think that they can do whatever they like!

These wretches, I outta just...

You won't know about this.

I have plans for this one.

What?

What will you do with it?

Something, you wretch.

Your Majesty, I am in possession of your seoyeopdo.

I would like to return it to you,

so please come to Songgyeong forrest during the hours of the ox (between 1 ~ 2 a.m.).

Yes... I heard that it was an item that definitely belonged to you.

What did you do with the seoyeopdo?

Cheonmyeong suddenly asked about the seoyeopdo,

so I became a bit flustered and told her a false story.

Cheonmyeong also made a visit to you as well?

Yes, and I told her that it was lost.

Goodness... We ended up giving her different answers.

We have kept this a secret until now,

so how did Cheonmyeong know to even ask questions?

In her words, she saw it in a painting that Mishil drew, but...

Yesterday, she inquired about Sohwa at the office of slave registry.

Sohwa...?

Yes, Sire.

What... What does Cheonmyeong have in her mind?

Why all of a sudden...

Shall I announce you?

Elder Daedeung...?

No... It's fine.

I've checked the log book of any Hwarangs that came in or went out of Seon gate, but...

for both Chilsuk and Munno there are no records of them

going in or out during the year of Imsul, in the month of Shimyo, on the day of Jeongchuk?

Year of Imsul [dog], in the month of Shimyo [rabbit], on the day of Jeongchuk [ox]?

Yes, Ma'am.

Are you certain?

Is it really during the year of Imsul, in the month of Shimyo, on the day of Jeongchuk?

Yes... I've checked many times.

What is this all about?

The day Chilsuk and Munno disappeared, I was also born that day...

and Sohwa died on that very day as well.

So then... Why?

Yushing Rang, I have created an incident.

Deokman's mother...

Chilsuk... who was sent to kill Deokman.

It appears to have a connection to the royal family, so...

I wasn't able to tell the princess...

Therefore... I am taking care of this on my own.

Because I have the seoyeopdo, I've dared to request for His Majesty to come out.

Also, Munno has full knowledge of everything...

And... They all disappeared on the day that I was born.

Do you think His Majesty will appear?

If His Majesty does appear, then how will he perceive this?

Even if His Majesty..., if His Majesty also tries to kill me just like Mishil...

Then, what am I suppose to do?

What brings you here at this late hour?

Can you gather up about 20 vassals who are quick and won't make any mistakes?

If you wish, then I will only use my vassals.

So, what is the matter,

that you aren't able to use the palace guards?

If I were to use the palace guards, then Seolwon will be involved.

Alright then, I will also use the services of Archeon Rang and Bicheon Jido.

Archeon?

Yes... He showed his displeasure in regards to the recent war,

and also about the ritual ceremony.

He favors work for His Majesty and not for Mishil.

If it's Archeon, then...

He is trustworthy.

His vassals are well trained.

Gather 20 vassals whom you trust and bring them to Songgyeong forrest.

This matter concerns capture of a criminal of high treason

who infiltrated by trying to distribute an appeal report to His Majesty.

You must not be seen by anyone.

Yes, Sir.

Daedeung Eulje has given us an important task.

- Are you prepared? - Yes, Sir.

Lord Yongchun has examined the Hwarang's record book, trying to find out about Chilsuk Rang.

Why all of a sudden?

I have no idea about that, but just awhile ago,

there was secret movement by Bicheon Jido and Hoguk Seondo.

Is that so?

Just follow them for now.

Yes, Ma'am.

Who's there?

Princess!

I need to see something inside the royal storage room.

But, it's already late...

Open the door.

Yes, Ma'am.

Gyerim Reuk (a book containing the daily records of all Shilla's affairs)

Year of Imsul [dog], in the month of Shimyo [rabbit], on the day of Jeongchuk [ox]...?

Year of Imsul [dog], in the month of Shimyo [rabbit], on the day of Jeongchuk [ox]...?

On this day, one of the stars of the Big Dipper split into two and became twin stars.

Two days later, the twin stars became one again,

and all the people spoke about this momentous event.

On this day... This is all that happened?

Twin stars...

Twin stars?

Prophecy...?

That's right, there was a prophecy.

"Ulcheul Ssangsang", meaning... when a king has twins.

"Seonggeol Namjin", meaning... All seeds from "sacred bone" men will have dried up.

When a King has twins, it is said that all seeds from Seonggeol men will be dried up.

The reason why we lost all three of our sons... is because of... the twin birth.

The reason why another prince perished...

It's because of you.

You also have a birth mark here.

What?

Ahhh...This?

I have it also.

Oh... Even the shape is very similar.

The order Chilsuk received from Mishil was to... capture me and bring me back.

Why?

I have to find out why. Maybe then, I'll have the answers to who I really am.

Perhaps... Deokman is...

Deokman is...

He is suppose to come here at the hour of ox... [between 1~2 a.m.]

We must take care of this quickly and covertly.

- Do you understand? - Yes, Sir.

Tonight, a suspicious person will appear.

We must definitely capture that person at all cost.

If you aren't able to capture that person...

Then, kill that person.

Must be killed?

Must be killed?

Have you ever been suspicious of a person whom you trusted?

Are you hiding anything from me?

Your Majesty?

Sohwa?

Shouldn't we find Sohwa's whereabouts?

Mishil has Sohwa in custody... Mishil has her!

It might not be what it seems, so please take a closer look.

The guards are now searching through your hideouts.

Since we are in the process of searching...

We will now be conducting a body search for all vassals.

What are you doing?

Hurry and take it off.

You wretch, why aren't you taking it off?

A twin...

Is Deokman not a man?
