Hey you... Have you ever told Yushin Rang about a scar on your body?

Episode 19

Yushin Rang knows... He knew it all along.

What?

He said you had a story of an awful scar, and he ordered us not to mess with you.

You scared me. Why are you standing there?

Ohh... Well... That is...

Pardon?

It's nothing.

Don't do anything else tonight and just go to sleep.

Yushin Rang knows...?

Princess...

Deokman is....

Deokman is a female.

Truly... Yushin Rang really knows?

He knows for sure. Think about it...

Yushin Rang talked about how you had an awful story of a really bad scar...

But then, you say you never told him about one, right?

Because he knows, that's why he is trying to protect you.

Why wonder what Yushin Rang is thinking?

He is also a scary person.

What... What are you trying to say?

That Deokman is... what?

Yes, Princess... Deokman is... a female.

I apologize.

I should have alreadty told you.

Then...

Is Deokman really... my younger sibling?

Now... Now what are we going to do?

If the prophecy about the twin girls birth...

We must cover it up.

No one, I mean no one, must know about this.

But, if what you say is true, then she is a *Shinggeol of the royal family.

*Shinggeol = "sacred bone"

How can we just leave her as a *Nangdo?

*Nangdo = vassal

Then... why did you hide the fact that Deokman is a female?

I did not want to... part with her.

I also share your sentiment.

If Deokman's identity is revealed, then we will end up losing her.

Deokman shouldn't have been here in Seorabeol.

But...

We must hide Deokman immediately.

How could she possibly endure all the anguish in knowing about her ominous fate?

Isn't it so pitiful...?

She was abandoned to a faraway place as soon as she was born.

And, she has endured so much hardship just to find out who she is.

When she finds out, then her fate is to die.

Yushin Rang... already knows about this?

Really?

My goodness, what am I suppose do to now?

Deokman...

Deokman, you are... you are....

Yushin Rang...

What?

What's the matter?

You already know, right?

About what?

That Doekman... is a girl.

Ahh..hmm... You didn't know?

Damn, I just told her. Damn... Damn.

OK... How did you know?

So, you did know. You were well aware, right?

I was once well known by the ladies of the night,

and I know the difference between a man and a woman ...just by looking.

Just pretend you don't know.

Yes... Of course we should do that.

Why...?

Why didn't you just kick me out?

What are you talking about?

You are already aware, right?

About what?

Are you still going to play dumb?

The fact... that... I am a girl.

So, what?

What did you just say?

The princess entrusted you in my care... So all I did was to accept you.

Since there was no mention about you having to be a male or a female for me to keep you around,

I did what I was told.

Is there something wrong with that?

Anyways, since you now know, I have something to say.

I have my reasons why I had to conceal myself and live like this.

Therefore, what I'm trying to say is....

I don't want to hear it.

Yushin Rang...

Why do you always avoid me whenever I try talking to you about my reasoning?

I am not avoiding you. I just don't have an interest.

OK... Even if you're not interested, just listen to me anyway.

I've endured many sufferings in order to get here to Gyerim.

Furthermore, the reason why I pretended to be a male and lived as a vassal is....

to find out... who I really am.

Pathetic fool.

Pardon?

Why do you even care about finding that out?

Why is that so important?

To find out who you are...?

All you have to do is... make your own name for yourself from now on.

Yushin Rang... Do not take other people's words so lightly.

That's right... Others.

And I do take your words lightly!

Poor fella.

Did you really end up doing that?

That's right...

I gave the other twin, along with the seoyeopdo, to Sohwa and sent them away.

Sire, how could you do that?

How could you take care of such an important matter that way?

She is my flesh and blood....

How could I just put that child six feet under?

However, that very Sohwa has returned....

Which means that possibly the other twin could have returned as well, right?

Not to mention, Sohwa is in Mishil's custody.

By chance, if the other twin princess is alive, and if Mishil is aware of this fact, then....

More than anyone, you should know very well the problems that may cause.

What?

You never forget a woman's face once you have laid your eyes on her, right?

Why? Why are you bring that up again?

I'm not trying to blame you, so....

You would never forget, right?

How did I manage to have over 100 children...?

Because all women have the desire to be remembered...

Thus, I remember each and every detail. So how could I forget their faces?

If I look at the face just one time, then I can never forget.

Yes... Then, I need you to verify a woman for me.

Pardon? A woman?

Sure, I don't see a problem with that.

OK... Are your eyes improving?

I am still receiving continuous treatments .

Good...

Master Wolcheon is not only skilled at astronomy, but he is also highly regarded for his art of healing.

So you will see improvements if you continue to receive his treatments.

I am forever grateful.

Did you say that woman's name is Chunglin?

How has she been recently?

Is she still trying to go outside?

Yes, because she doesn't know any better...

But I'm sure she'll start showing improvments.

You do know, right?

You know who that woman is, right?

She is... that palace maid.

What do you mean by "that palace maid"?

The one that disappeared with the other twin... His majesty's palace maid!

She is Sohwa!

I think it may be dangerous for Deokman to stay in Seorabeol.

I feel the same way.

Daedeung Eulje is using Imjong to continue with the investigation of the assembly hall incident.

In order to find out her true identity, she is going to stir up more incidents, so....

I am feeling uneasy.

What's your opinion of telling Deokman everything?

I thought about this by putting myself in Deokman's shoes....

and if I had found out about my identity and the ominous fate that came with it, just like Doekman...

then I thought about how I would have reacted.

I don't think I would have taken it to well.

Thus... Even if Deokman finds out eventually, I don't think now is the right time.

Alright then...

First, I should give an order for Deokman to head over to the hideout on Mount Joongak,

and have her await further orders.

So we can buy some time....

I will tell her myself.

Yes, Ma'am.

Really? She is that palace maid, Sohwa?

Then... It could be possible that the other twin is alive.

I'm not sure about that, but knowing that Mishil has her in custody, we can't make assumptions.

What do you think about all this?

Even if the other twin was not a princess,

the palace maid Sohwa witnessed the twin birth that night.

We must retrieve her right away.

But... She's at the shrine, and we can't just go in there without cause.

If Mishil is not yet aware of the identity, then doing so could only make matters worse.

Then, what should we do?

Imjong, are you outside?

Yes, Sir.

As of now, I want you to have the shrine under complete surveillance.

Without fail, you must report all happenings, even if it's a small matter.

Yes, Sir.

Then, are you telling us to move to a different location?

Since Chunglin is always trying to escape,

I don't think this place is adequate enough.

I've found you a secret place outside the palace, so I want you to move there.

That woman must be safely kept,

so that you will be able to receive treatment without any worries.

I am thankful to you for such benevolence.

In order to avoid your being seen, I'll have only a few guards accompanying you, so move covertly.

Yes, Ma'am.

Deok..Deokman... Are you OK? Let me see.

Are you OK?

Aigoo... This heavy thing...

Hey, what's wrong with him all of a sudden?

I'm not sure... Maybe Deokman has something over on him.

Look at this... Just look.

You seem to be far more concerned then usual.

What are you guys doing?

Should I have you wear those sandbags again?

I'm going, I'm going.

Just treat me same as before... You got it?

I'm acting like my normal self, you wretch. What's different?

The princess is here.

Why don't you go to her.

If you have something to say, then go ahead and say it.

What do you think about going to Mount Joongak for the time being?

What do you mean by Mount Joongak?

Why don't you go to Mount Joongak....

and wait there until the next order is issued.

It's an important order.

All you have to do is just train up there.

Just... stay there for the time being.

Princess...

You aren't a good liar.

You once asked me if I was hiding anything from you, but...

from the looks of things, it appears you're hiding something from me.

What is it?

What? What are you saying?

Didn't Chilsuk say with certainty that he took care of both the palace maid and the other twin?

But, this is being spoken because that palace maid is alive and at the shrine.

If that's the case, then we can't be certain of what happened to that other twin, right?

For now... we must separate Chilsuk and Sohwa.

To see someone so faithful as Chilsuk acting this way and deceiving me like this, only means....

that his feelings for Sohwa run very deep.

Oh ho... How is it possible that a palace maid like her was able to steal his heart?

That's the truth...

Chilsuk Rang, having to think for himself for such a long time, is not in his right mind anymore.

That's not it....

There are plenty of reasons why he is like that.

What?

Chilsuk and Sohwa, both of them not having their opinions matter,

just followed orders and sacrificed half their lives.

Thus, they should be given much sympathy...

And that's how Chilsuk must have given his heart away.

I, Mishil, whether it's 100 or a 1000 times, do understand.

However, Chilsuk is....

Therefore, that's why we must separate the two!

After separating the two, then we must find out the whereabouts of the other twin.

Also, Chilsuk must not be made aware of what's going on.

Soon... Chilsuk and Sohwa will be leaving the shrine.

Lord Seolwon...

Have Bojong take some of his trusted vassals to attack while they're on route...

and have them bring only Sohwa here.

Yes, I understand.

I will deal with the rest afterward.

What... will... you do?

Chilsuk must come to a conclusion that His Majesty's men were responsible for abducting Sohwa.

That's correct...

I, Mishil, will definitely take back what's mine, Chilsuk, from that woman Sohwa.

Go report this to Daedeung Eulje right away.

Yes, Sir.

No one must be hurt.

Without leaving any trace, just extract palace maid Sohwa.

Yes, Sir.

Chilsuk Rang's eyesight may still be bad, but....

he was once considered the best Hwarang,

who had superior skills rivaled only by Munno.

Do not act with carelessness.

Chilsuk Rang is considered to be a legend among my clan, Ilwol Seongdo.

How could we not know?

Please do not worry.

A man and a woman were seen leaving the shrine.

- Are you certain they came out of the shrine? -Yes Sir.

It looked as if they were headed outside of the palace.

It's now.

Tell Imjong that he must definitely extract that woman....

We have no way of knowing when we will get another opportunity like this.

Yes, Sir.

They're coming.

We must extract a woman inside of that palanquin.

I will distract the bodyguards, and....

during that time, the palanquin must be taken away.

Yes, Sir.

What's going on?

Hey... who are you bastards?

- Follow that palanquin. - Yes, Sir.

Get them!

Disperse!

Let's go!

What do you mean an attack?

While I was blocking Chilsuk, my vassals were taking the palanquin away,

but they were suddenly attacked by some unknown group of people.

And so, you are telling me that you don't know the whereabouts of Sohwa?

My apologies...

What about Chilsuk?

He has returned to the shrine.

Please go and see him. He seems to be in a bad state.

We're not trying to harm you. We're trying to save you.

Help her change into these clothes.

Yes, Sir.

What did the princess say?

She said for me to leave for Joongak,

and that I should wait there until she sends me an important order.

Then, why aren't you leaving?

You are also hiding something from me as well, right?

- Who, me? - Everyone is acting strange.

Didn't we pledge allegiance to each other for three lifetimes or something like that?

It was done in vain.

Because after that, everyone started to act strange.

You said we shouldn't keep secrets from each other.

So then, why are you hiding something?

Didn't you also hide the fact that you are a female?

You're right... Everyone is hiding something from each other.

Pledge allegiance, my foot.

I have never forgotten my reason... for coming here.

What's in the past is just the past.

Whatever person you may have been in the past, how you were born....

the life you live now determines both the person that you are and will become.

What's important is now, not the past.

Don't waste your energy on fruitless matters.

Sit down. I haven't finished talking.

Fruitless matter?

What's important?

Because of it, my mother died.

With her injured lungs...

she was a person unable to breathe with normal capacity....

and died from suffocation.

Deokman...

The reason... I should at least know the reason why.

Having not done anything wrong... and in trying to save me,

she ended up buried beneath the sands... and suffocated to death.

Everyday while I train here....

Each time I grasp for air from losing my breathe....

I think to myself, "My mom... My mom must have died like this."

While thinking about those awful times... Why?

Why do you think I remained here?

Why mom had to die...

Who killed my mom...

All I want to know is the reason behind it.

If you find my actions to be against your code of conduct, then terminate my status and I'll leave.

However, if you don't do so, then....

I shall never leave.

Let go! Let go!

Open the door! Open the door!

I must go out! Look here... Look here...!

Chilsuk Rang... Chilsulk Rang, please calm yourself.

Please open the door. I must find that woman.

Your vision is still impaired....

So, what can you do by leaving here and looking for her? You cannot go.

Chilsuk Rang became very agitated, saying he had to find that woman, so....

Is there any news about the identity of the group of people that attacked?

No, but Bojong Rang is investigating the matter.

My Lady, I must go.

I must go and find her.

How are you going to find her outside?

My Lady, I am sorry, but I must go.

Chilsuk Rang... You must not!

Strike me down and then leave.

I am not just saying this.

I know how deeply you feel for that woman.

With that feeling, I know you're capable of striking me down and then leaving.

If you truly love her... then you will be able strike me down.

That is love.

My Lady... I must find that woman.

She is a person who must not be hurt anymore on my account.

It's because of you.

Pardon?

You have lied to me.

What is her true identity?

The people who attacked you were after that woman, and not you.

Who is she?

Th..That is...

Isn't she the palace maid named Sohwa who ran away with the other twin?

I just found out myself.

My Lady...

You foolish idiot... Who would try to kill Sohwa?

Will it be this Mishil or...

is it His Majesty who tried to get rid of the only person who witnessed the twin birth?

Was it His Majesty's doing?

Sohwa is a very dangerous person for His Majesty.

He is different from me.

Since one of the twins has disappeared, what can I possibly do to that woman?

If anyone has to protect her, it's me since I need her to be a witness.

If only you would have told me the whole truth about her, then...

I would've gladly given you my blessing.

Chilsuk...

Just trust this Mishil.

I will definitely find that woman and send her to you.

It's not too late....

Tell me the truth... the whole truth.

So... What happened?

He said the other twin was swept away by a sandstorm.

Sohwa, feeling the weight of her loss, ended up losing her senses.

Feeling pity for her, he took her in.

How are we to know if that's a lie or not?

It's not a lie... I am certain of this.

Didn't His Majesty see Sohwa at that time as well?

I'm sure he knows now.

What have you found out?

After further investigation by Bojong, this attack seems to have been lead by Imjong.

Who was pulling the strings? Was it His Majesty or the princess?

It appears to have been Daedeung Eulje.

We must first find the whereabouts of Sohwa.

Please have Bojong take care of it.

Yes, Ma'am.

She doesn't seem to be in a right state of mind.

After careful examination by a physician,

she seems to have lost her communication skills due to some traumatic incident.

Sohwa...

What has happened to you?

It's my fault. It's all my fault.

What are you trying to say?

Sohwa... Sohwa...

It's no use. She is unable to speak.

OK... I can either leave... or... I can just stay.

But... not like this.

Hey, I don't have such a thing. What do you take me for?

I don't have any time... Give it to me now.

Damn it, what the...

What are you trying to conjure up?

Hurry.

Damn it, you...

If you continue to disobey, then you leave me no other choice.

I will not disobey.

I will do as ordered.

All I have to do is leave for Joongak, right?

And once I leave, I just have to wait for the next order... Am I right?

That's right. Why don't you go together with Goksaheun and Daepung.

So they can keep an eye on me?

Go and cool yourself off and I'll be there soon. We will talk then.

Yes, Sir. I'll get going now.

Ahh... Before that, I should pay my respects to the princess first.

Sure.

Wh..What did you just say?

Who is coming? Who?

Sohwa has returned.

Then....

The baby...?

I do not know.

Where is she?

I must meet with her right away. Where is Sohwa?

It's useless to meet with her. She cannot speak.

But still, I must meet with her. I must!

Are you really... Sohwa?

Sohwa... It's me.

Don't you recognize me?

Sohwa...

Sohwa...

I'm sorry...

I'm so sorry.

The baby... What happened to the baby?

Is she alive?

Where...? Where is she?

He...Here?

Here in Gyerim...?

Her name... What name did you give to her?

Without even giving her a name, I sent her away with you.

Her name... What name did you give to her?

Just wait here. I'll be back.

I was told that the three of us aren't suppose to separate.

He's right.

So then, do you want to go inside the princess' chamber together?

I'll be back.

My Lady!

Are you alright?

I'm alright.

Let's go.

Yushin Rang gave me the heads up. So, you've decided to leave?

Yes, Ma'am. I will leave.

OK.. I have so much to tell you at a later time.

Go and wait for me there.

Yes, Ma'am. I shall do that.

Ok... Thank you.

But, I have a favor to ask of you.

What is it?

Before I leave... Just once, can I have an audience with His Majesty?

Princess, I beg of you.

You cannot.

Why? Why can't I?

I just wanted....

You wretch!

You are very impudent, indeed.

Do you think a mere vassal such as yourself can seek audience with His Majesty as you wish?

Just because you have a close nit relationship with a princess,

do you think you can act with such arrogance?

You may take your leave now.

Go to Mount Joongak and wait for my next order.

Her Highness the Queen has arrived.

You must be in the middle of a conversation.

No, we are finished talking.

You may leave.

I shall be waiting in front of the assembly hall.

That child... Your twin sister is alive.

Mother... How did you find out about that?

What did you just say?

Did you... already know about this?

Tell me what you know...!

Did you already know about this?

Mother...

Cheonmyeong...

Yes... She is... alive.

I... already knew.

Where... Where is she?

However, now is not the right time.

Even you are trying to deceive me, and belittle me as well?

Mother... If the other twin is discovered, then what do you think will happen to her?

In this palace, Mishil's people are in each and every corner.

And...?

I have a plan in mind. But it's dangerous even for you to know of it now.

Please... Have trust in me and just wait awhile.

Wait for you? I cannot do that.

If you won't tell me, then I will find her for myself.

That vassal was flirting with me, am I right?

That's true.

Even if he has a close relationship with the princess, he shouldn't be doing something like this.

If I were to tell Her Highness, do you think I would get in trouble?

Are you crazy? If you do, you might get kicked out.

You're so brash.. Just be careful.

What's with all this noise?

It's nothing. We should leave, Milady.

Wait.

Pardon?

What is that?

The vassal that left a little while ago was acting inappropriately, so....

I asked you what that was?

Daehwa Jeon (Assembly Hall)

Hey, you over there!

Why are you loitering around here?

Someone will be calling me in soon.

Who's going to call in some wretch like you?

Leave the premises immediately.

I'm telling you someone will be calling me in soon.

I said to leave the premises immediately.

Are you refusing to leave, you wretch? Why you little...!

Nangdonim...

Her Highness is calling for you.

I told you.

How is it that you are in possession of this?

As Princess Cheonmyeong's subordinate, I've heard that you take care of many matters for her.

The owner of this sheath and dagger must be a female.

Am I right?

Yes, Ma'am.

Do you... know the whereabouts of that female?

Yes, Ma'am... I do.

What took you so long?

We thought you ran away.

Let's go.

Sorry for being late.

On our way, let's stop at a tavern... My treat.

Really? You must have gotten some spending money from the princess, didn't you?

Let's go.

Deokman, wait up.

I'm sorry.

The Queen's palanquin...? At this time of the night?

It could be Sohwa.

Yes, that is a possibility.

If they had been hiding Sohwa at the hall, then they might be trying to take her out.

For now, just follow them.

Yes, Ma'am.

What? What did you just say?

Yes. Deokman has disappeared.

Didn't I tell the three of you to always stick together?

So, how could you lose him?

We drank a little bit of alcohol together.

It wasn't that much, but... we fell asleep.

Damn it.

Princess! Princess!

Princess...

What's with the commotion?

I was standing in front of Ingang Jeon as you requested...

And...?

The queen's palanquin has left... just now.

What?

Wait for you? I cannot do that.

If you won't tell me, then I will find her for myself!

Yushin Rang has arrived.

Send him in.

Deokman has disappeared.

Before I leave... Just once, can I have an audience with His Majesty?

The queen has also left her quarters at this late hour.

By chance, Deokman couldn't have...?

But, how did the queen...?

Choseon informed me that she saw the queen's palanquin leave Ingang Jeon.

But... If they were suppose to meet in secret, then how could Her Highness leave on her palanquin?

Deokman is very clever.

* "Make noise on the east side in order to strike the west side."

Could she possibly be using the tactic *"Seongdeong Gyeokseo"?

You're right. It must to be that place.

How dare you block Her Highness' palanquin?

I am Hwarang Bojong of Ilwol Seongdo, and I am in the midst of chasing a Baekje spy.

So?

Once I see Her Highness, then my doubts will dissipate.

Please allow me to see Her Highness.

I cannot.

Please forgive my rudeness.

As you said, it's not Her Highness.

She is not Sohwa.

I've done everything that you asked of me to do.

I've managed to leave all of my entourage behind, and came here by myself.

The owner of the seoyeopdo... Where is that female?

She is your mother.

Mother... She is your daughter. She is my twin sister.

I cannot exist.

You said I can only live if I don't exist.

If you lose to Mishil, then come to Samak.

I, Kim Yushin..., am I nothing to you?

Don't leave.

Your Highness...? Princess...? What are you looking for?

Why would you hide it from me?

Kidnapped...?

Why would he be kidnapped?

That's right. I'm certain there is a master mind behind this.

It's that child....

I'm certain that vassal named Deokman holds the key to all this.

Go arrest Deokman and bring him back here.

That's the only way you can save your vassal.
