Original subtitles

I am a general in the navy.

I was investigating pirates...

and you seemed suspicious, so I followed you.

Who are you people?

What shall we do?

Goodness gracious.

Yes, yes. Have a drink.

Drink up. Drink.

This is a big secret.

Gosh. No. No, no.

It may be of assistance in your endeavors.

You will need to employ the navy eventually anyway.

Right?

I guess I will have to disclose my identity to you.

The truth is,

I am a secret royal inspector.

Is that true?

Why do you not trust people?

Look. There.

I apologize for my rude behavior. I did not know. Please forgive me.

It is fine. Sit comfortably.

I may be rotting in a small town,

but I have always lived for justice.

I will do anything I can to help for the sake of the nation.

You seem to be too worthy to rot in such a small town.

Thank you.

Actually, I am here because of copper.

Copper?

Based on my investigation, people are disguising themselves...

as pirates and stealing copper.

If this gets out,

neither you nor the Japanese representative...

will be safe.

I... I really did not know.

If I had known, how could I have...

What do you say?

Will you join me in capturing those stealing the copper?

If you help me with this, I will not forget it.

I shall give my all.

What shall I do?

You still could not catch the one who stole the map?

My apologies, master.

Just who...

We will have to change the port for the boat.

Pardon? But how...

Do you now know how important this transaction is?

Find a way to contact the Japanese merchant.

I will send a hawk, but I do not know if it will reach them.

Send 10 hawks. No, 100. Send 132.

Send them until the message gets through!

Do you not know...

how my father will react if this falls through?

Yes, master.

- You can trust me. - Sure, sure. Go on.

Go already. I got it. Go.

I have a favor to ask.

Please...

do not tell Ga Eun who I am.

Pardon?

Why not?

I would like...

Ga Eun to live a normal life as she has been living.

I do not want her to be involved with me...

or Pyunsoo Group and fall into danger.

I understand.

No good will come of Ga Eun being involved with Pyunsoo Group.

Thank you.

Is that why you pretended not to know her?

Because you were worried? Because you were concerned?

You should get some rest.

Tomorrow, it will be a tougher fight.

I am fine.

You have no idea...

how long I have waited for this day.

Gon.

Yes, my lady.

I think the Crown Prince plans to entrap my father.

What shall I do?

Save my father.

Yes, my lady.

I think either the information was wrong,

or they noticed something.

Your Highness.

Look.

Yes.

That way.

Strap them down tightly. The roads are rough.

If you are done, let us get going.

Kancho! Thank you!

Goodbye.

- Goodbye. - Goodbye.

Okay, goodbye. Go on. Go, you punks.

Let us go.

Halt!

Who are you?

I have always wanted to do this.

You are...

under arrest for trafficking copper!

You... The adjunct.

- You. Get over here. Get over here. - Wait.

Let go. Hey.

What are you doing?

Arrest these men at once!

Get over here!

- Freeze! - Freeze!

Master, what should we do?

Master!

This is why I said we should...

change the location!

Attack!

Oh, no.

Stop!

Master.

- You must flee. - Okay.

Master!

- Where are you going? - Hey!

- Stop! - Master. Master.

Are you alone?

Master, please.

The head of the Bureau of Water Supply...

is a pirate trafficking copper?

How pathetic.

Step aside if you do not want to die.

Wait.

- Let us fight! - Stop it.

It's 3 versus 1.

- Gosh. - What is up with your hair?

- Gosh. - You beggars.

We caught them all.

Great job.

Tie them up.

- What are you waiting for? - Tie them up!

We are almost there.

Gosh. My shoe is coming off.

Run a little more.

- Hurry. - Gosh, what is that?

Hwa Gun.

We do not have much time, so run away first. I will explain later.

Hurry.

Okay.

Are you okay?

I missed them.

He ran away.

Treating your wound comes first.

I betrayed you and helped my father run away.

I promised that I would help you,

but I betrayed you.

I...

apologize.

Why would you be sorry when you got hurt while helping me?

Does it hurt a lot?

Yes.

I did not know...

it would hurt this much.

I will...

I will never betray you again.

You must be...

very startled.

It is all right now.

Do you know?

This moment...

when I can cry in your arms...

is the happiest moment...

for me.

Careful.

Move them carefully.

What happened?

I missed him.

The head of the Bureau recognized my face.

It will not be a problem, will it?

He ran away,

so Dae Mok will find out soon enough.

I need to hurry back to the capital.

I do not think it will be easy to go back with all these loads.

I will go first and find out a way,

so please bring the copper safely.

- Sure. - Sure.

I am glad I was not too late.

I thought I would not be able to see you before we left.

I had things to take care of.

Things to take care of?

Are you granting my wish then?

I will be waiting for you in the capital.

The capital?

I will be waiting for the day we drink together in the capital.

What? What is going on?

Hey.

Hey. Is she coming to the capital?

I do not know.

What do you know?

Do not be like this and tell me. Is she coming or not?

Come on. Tell me.

Are you feeling unwell?

I have something...

to confess to you.

It was only an excuse that I had business to take care of.

Actually,

I joined you because I wanted to help you.

Can I ask you why you are trying to help me?

I am your person.

So will you trust me in any circumstances?

You are back, my lady.

Is everything all right?

The leader of Pyunsoo Group is waiting inside.

What should we do?

If Father finds out that we lost all the copper...

Tell Grandfather about it.

He will be furious then.

He will...

think I am pathetic again.

Covering it will not solve the problem.

Is there any way to get copper?

I cannot get that much copper right away.

Tell Grandfather before things become worse.

You will be in less trouble...

only if you let him prepare for what will happen.

Goodness.

Wash up and get dressed.

He will be more furious if you visit him like that.

Right.

Gosh.

You are the only one...

who cares for me.

By the way,

why were you there?

I went there for business and saw you.

I would have been in huge trouble if it were not for you.

Where did the head of the Bureau go?

He went saying that it was strange that the soldiers...

came all the way there. He had somewhere in mind.

You will give the copper to the Queen Dowager?

I need someone who can stand against Dae Mok...

and give the copper to the Ministry of Finance.

She is the only one who is capable of that.

Her power is enough to stand against Dae Mok.

Will you hold hands with the Queen Dowager?

She is the only one who can fight against Dae Mok.

I will support her for the time being and fight against the group.

Master.

The head of the Bureau went to the herbal store.

Are you sure about it?

The herbal store?

He went to Ga Eun?

Oh, well.

Ga Eun.

Ga Eun is in danger.

My gosh.

Move aside.

Move.

You wench. Did you think you would be safe...

after reporting us? Did you?

Reporting you? What do you mean?

You reported what you saw in the warehouse of...

the Second Minister of Personnel to the Capital District Office!

I do not know what was in that warehouse,

but looking at how you are so worked up,

there must be something that must not be in there.

You...

How dare a traitor's daughter talk right back at me.

Tell the truth.

I reported nothing of the sort.

How dare she... Do you think you can run away?

I am not running away. I am going to the Capital District Office.

What?

Now that you are here, I might as well report...

your strange warehouse.

Are you...

trying to get beheaded like your father was?

How dare you...

My lady! My lady...

Ga Eun, please be safe.

Who are you?

Move. Step aside!

I need you to come with me.

His Majesty the King wishes to see you.

Ga Eun, is Ga Eun safe?

- Master Chun Soo? - Where is she?

Is she safe?

Yes. She is safe.

His Majesty the King...

asked to see her, so she went with his bodyguard.

His Majesty the King?

Get up.

How have you been?

I am sure you suffered.

I remembered you.

Your father, Deputy Magistrate Han was killed five years ago.

Beheading him...

was my mistake.

I apologize.

I wish to do something for you.

Do you want anything from me?

I am the King.

I can do anything you wish.

Then...

can you...

reinstate my father?

Can you clear his name and lift the brand of a traitor?

That is...

I cannot bring up the past just yet.

Tell me another wish. Are you in need of anything?

I can give you all the riches you need.

I want nothing other than...

the recovery of my father's honor.

If there is nothing more for you to say, I shall leave.

Wait.

I need someone to tend to this greenhouse.

I heard you know much about medicinal herbs.

Can you fill this greenhouse with herbs?

I have headaches and cannot sleep.

Planting herbs could be of some help.

I shall accept your command.

Thank you.

(The Emperor)

Are you here out of concern for me?

Yes.

The real Yi Sun is alive?

Even if it is just for one moment,

I wish to be a real king.

Do you have feelings for Ga Eun?

How could someone like me yearn for someone like her?

Is that all you have to say?

I am sorry.

Never for one second did I forget you.
