[Episode 6]

The Bottom-tier Room cannot pass!

They do not even have the right to take the test.

So, they do not get to pass, either.

- Kim Myeong Ho! - Hong Deok Su...

is a girl.

This girl dared to deceive Yongcheonru...

and took the Gyohwadang test.

She will have to be punished harshly.

Kim Myeong Ho, shut your mouth.

Hong Deok Su,

come clean in front of everyone!

Can you be responsible for what you just said?

If you are framing an innocent person right now,

you had better bet your life on it, Kim Myeong Ho.

Why should I?

She is the one who lied!

My apologies, My Lady.

They are lacking a lot because they are still apprentices.

I will scold them firmly later.

You may go inside now.

Will you just let this slide, Master Innkeeper?

What is all this fuss at a place where we host an important guest?

I came to bid you farewell since you are leaving for Onyang early tomorrow.

I was about to say goodbye to her.

No, Master Cheon.

Kim Myeong Ho.

That is enough.

Master Innkeeper, I will take away the apprentices now.

Go back so My Lady can rest.

Follow me.

So, did you have a pleasant outing?

I know everything that happens in Yongcheonru.

I ordered them to do it.

So, do not punish anyone, Master Cheon.

Punish?

I should praise them since they brought you so much joy.

And...

I will explain this to the Defense Minister.

Thank you.

My apologies.

I was going to take care of it and report it to you since I was in a hurry.

Was the Bottom-tier Room behind this, too?

Including Jun Hwa?

Yes, they seem to cause trouble, but the guest likes them.

It is as if the heavens are on their side.

The heavens are on their side?

That is Jun Hwa's fortune.

He brings the Heavens' luck and people.

You should also read the Bottom-tier Room appentices' fortune.

Move quickly!

I am very disappointed in you.

I know you are competing against each other,

but you constantly sabotage each other and-

However,

the Master Innkeeper wanted to let this go-

Aigoo, aigoo! That "However!" However, however!

You always say, "However, however, however..."

Stop saying that, you bastards.

This is no good. To turn you into good classmates,

I will lend you a hand.

Understand?

- Yes. - Louder!

Yes!

Do jumping jacks 10 times.

Do not count the last number.

Start!

- Start. - Start.

- One, two, three. - One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

Six.

Seven.

Eight.

Nine.

Ten.

Gosh.

You bastards! Get it together!

Lie face down.

Move quickly!

Lie face down!

Lie face up.

Lie face down.

Lie face up!

- Lie face down. - Shit.

Who said, "Shit"?

- Let us stop. - Number 28.

Can you hang in there?

Lie face up.

Bastards! Do it properly.

Lie face down.

I will make sure to win.

I will make sure to win.

Hong Deok Su...

is a girl.

I have wanted to meet you very much, Master Innkeeper.

Hong Jae On.

Is it really you?

To be honest,

there is something I did not get to tell you.

- The thing is- - Was it the scar on his shoulder?

Huh?

That foolish bastard.

Has he been hiding his body because of the scar?

What is the big deal about a scar?

Does not every man have a scar on their body?

I suppose. Any man would. Any man would.

By the way, how could Kim Myeong Ho rip his shirt and not apologize?

I will make sure...

he pays for his rudeness.

Should I catch him and torture him?

By the way, Lee Eun Ho,

why are you doing this?

- What? - Unlike your usual self,

you are extremely worked up.

So, I...

I mean, we...

we should be enraged by injustice as noblemen.

You must have a secret, do you not?

By chance, is the secret...

regarding Hong Deok Su?

Wow. My father passed early, too.

We really need to become successful.

Hong Deok Su,

are you okay?

Yes.

You know, by the way...

Gosh, I am dying.

Sang Wu, that bastard kept counting the last number.

We rolled ten times more because of that.

Geez.

Myeong Ho, by the way,

what if Hong Deok Su really is a man?

I know. He was better at jumping than Sang Wu.

Shut up.

Are you saying I said the wrong thing?

N-No, I thought it would be tough to resolve things with the Master Cheon present.

We need to find evidence that he is a girl.

Pardon? What kind of evidence?

The evidence no one can deny!

Pardon? How will we do that?

Hey, look at yourselves.

I am sure he will go to the bathhouse today.

We need to catch him red-handed so he cannot escape.

I am going to the bathhouse. Will you join me?

I will bathe a bit later. You go first.

Yes, you go first.

- Hong Deok Su. - I said I will bathe a bit later.

The scar on your shoulder.

It is not a big deal.

A person gets injured in life

and you can get a scar from it, too.

I am saying you do not have to hide it.

You will become an important person one day.

You should have told me if you needed a room.

Gosh, my goodness.

Was it reported to you already?

I wanted to take a relaxing bath for once.

I suppose it has been difficult bathing with others.

Yes, well...

I wanted to get a full rest by myself for the first time in a while.

- Did you want to see me? - Beom Ho,

I have an important task for you.

Master Cheon will attend the Yongcheonru's hiring ceremony this year.

I want you to...

search his residence then.

Did you finally figure out where he lives?

He invited me to his residence.

He got overconfident and let his location be known.

We cannot miss this opportunity.

[Bottom-tier Room]

Why is he not coming out?

- He came out. - Shut up.

You were exactly right, Hyungnim.

He is coming out alone late at night.

Should we follow him right now?

Not yet.

- He stopped. - Why did he stop?

He left.

Let us go. Let us go.

Looks like he is not going to bathe.

Dirty bastard.

He refuses to take a bath, huh?

It is not over yet, Hong Deok Su.

You will trip on something. You will trip.

You will trip. You will trip.

You will trip. You will trip.

I need to go take a bath.

The Heavens must be helping you, Myeong Ho.

Shut up.

This is why we need to catch him red-handed.

We should get the entire Bottom-tier Room kicked out.

Yes, there he goes. There he goes. Let us go.

Hey, Hong Deok Su!

Where did he go off to?

He would like this, right?

I found this on the way.

I am not trying to help you.

Take a bath. You are dirty, okay?

No, no, no, no.

T-That scar. It is Hong Deok Su.

Let us go in and catch him.

Those losers are done, for now, Hyungnim.

What is...

W-What is that, exactly?

He is a man.

W-What? What are you looking at?

N-Never mind.

Who is over there?

Hyungnim! Hyungnim!

Shut your mouth.

You did this alone.

Hyungnim! We need to go!

You need to die for me to live.

If you care about your family,

behave yourself.

Hyungnim! Hyungnim!

- You bastard. - W-Well...

Hold on.

Aigoo.

What is with you?

No, I...

Why did you do that?

Why did you do that, you bastard?

How could you do this?

Why did you do that, you bastard?

Why did you do that?

Thank you for helping me, Go Su Ra.

I am sorry I have been hiding it.

You must have a reason why you had to live as a man.

Both of us are responsible for our families.

Do not worry.

I will not tell anyone.

Okay.

Hey,

that bastard last night was Hong Deok Su, right?

It had to be him.

I saw the scar on his shoulder, too.

It was not just the scar.

I definitely saw it.

He was definitely a man.

I am so glad only Sang Wu got caught.

Everyone, shut your mouths.

One person is missing today.

Shut up, Namhae merchant.

Did something not go as planned?

Things do not always go as planned.

I have experienced that, too.

Apprentice Byeon Sang Wu, who misbehaved last night

was expelled.

This is unfair. What do you mean I am homosexual?

Aigoo...

Anyone who disgraces Yongcheonru cannot be allowed here.

Keep that in mind.

I will announce the result of the final test.

Okay.

The Top-tier Room and Bottom-tier Room got the same score.

You passed the final test this year.

Be quiet. Be quiet.

The appointment ceremony will happen tomorrow. Keep that in mind.

And lastly,

there is something you need to do today.

[Geumuigak]

[Gongmyeongshil] It is...

to become guests.

You need to experience Yongcheonru as guests

to host the guests properly.

Experience the bedding, equipment, and the service

as a guest and write up a report. [Songbongshil]

Look here.

Wow...

Gosh, how cushy.

It feels like I am sitting on feathers.

Pull yourself together.

Who lies down on the bed before bathing?

How soft.

This must be Yongcheonru's bestselling bedsheet.

The bedsheet we almost died trying to wash at the stream.

Yes, I almost died fishing you out of water.

The bed is as soft as feathers.

Nice. So nice.

Stop loafing around and write the report.

This is all part of our job.

I had to be paired up with you, Hong Deok Su.

What about me? Why?

Hey,

if you hate it so much, switch rooms now.

I feel more comfortable with Go Su Ra, too.

If we get compliments, thanks to my excellent report,

do not cry from joy.

Okay. I'll kneel and call you "Hyungnim" if we get compliments.

Hyungnim. Lee Eun Ho hyungnim.

Stop goofing and get up.

You are dirtying the bed for later.

I will sleep here alone.

Then,

where am I supposed to sleep?

Sleep there if you really want to sleep alone.

The Bottom-tier Room felt cramped, too.

Cheon Jun Hwa, look at this.

What a spacious room this is.

Have you been here, Jun Hwa?

This is...

Lee Eun Ho and Hong Deok Su had to share a room.

Look at this delicate embroidery.

They put so much care into a tablecloth.

This is definitely the best room in Yongcheonru.

Is that so? Is that not common?

It is the flower tea.

They must have prepared many kinds of flower teas.

Flower teas are nice.

Huh? Flower teas?

You cannot drink-

that...

It does not taste that good.

This room is...

It is a room for newlyweds.

Are we supposed to use all this, then?

Well, why not?

"How to use the yulmu power."

"Pour the yulmu powder into a bowl.

Apply the dissolved yulmu powder on your face?"

You put it on your face instead of drinking it?

"How to use the foot bath."

"Dip in your hand and check to see if the water temperature is adequate.

If you massage each other's feet,

it will help you feel rejuvenated."

W-What are you doing?

W-What are you doing?

I am bigger than you, Hong Deok Su.

So, I wanted to change into the larger one.

Why? Will you wear this?

No, w-why would you do that now?

They told us to use everything in the room

and write a report, did they not?

You put this on, too.

Well, okay, okay.

You change here. I will change outside.

D-Do not follow me. I mean, do not come out.

Hong Deok Su,

I said a scar is not a big deal for a man.

Look.

- I was using a spear and- - Do not come out.

Here is today's special.

You can order things, and they bring them to the room?

Do you need to pay them?

You have to compensate them a little.

The annals did not mention the payment.

- I will write it down. - Look, Su Ra.

We are here as guests now. Let us enjoy.

Here, have some.

This is tastier.

I have never tasted anything like this.

Do they only have fish in Namhae?

"Check to see if the water temperature is adequate.

If you massage each other's feet..."

Go ahead and massage me.

Why should I?

I am writing a report.

Hong Deok Su, do not try to do nothing and benefit from me.

You should at least massage my feet.

Go ahead and massage.

Yes, I will.

Seriously! You are splashing water.

Hey! Are you okay?

I told you not to behave so rashly.

How imprudent!

"The footbath can...

start a fight. It is not appropriate."

The portion is generous, and it tastes great, too.

Should we take this to Hong Deok Su's room, then?

It has always been the four of us. Do you not find it boring this way?

Come on.

We need to finish this and write the report, too.

Come on. Listen,

we should also write it from the perspective of a group of customers.

As a guest visiting another guest's room.

Are you sure you read the manual correctly?

You put this on your face?

Yes, yes, sir.

Park Chun Hee, the greatest beauty of Joseon, also put this yulmu power on her face.

- But we are men. - We are also

the innkeepers who need to write a report.

Come on. Okay, okay.

Are you sure you are doing it correctly?

Do not forget it is your turn next.

Keep your mouth shut, sir.

The yulmu powder will get in there.

♫ An unfamiliar nervous feeling ♫

♫ A distant gaze ♫

It is my turn now.

♫ Could this moment be a dream? ♫

♫ The chaotic world has become quiet ♫

♫ You are approaching like sunlight ♫

♫ I got curious at some point ♫

♫ I wonder what you think of me ♫

Breathe.

Close your eyes.

♫ Is your heart fluttering like mine right now? ♫

♫ The blossoming flowers are singing ♫

♫ The wind is whispering as it blows ♫

♫ You are looking at me like sunshine ♫

♫ I am blossoming again as my old self ♫

♫ Blossoming ♫

I think we are out of yulmu. I will go get more.

Hey, Lee Eun Ho.

Where are you going?

You scared me.

W-What are you guys doing here?

We were going to visit your room.

Y-Yes, h-hang out in there.

Where are you going?

I am getting some fresh air!

It must be...

a side effect of yulmu.

Or was it honey?

Well, why is he leaving first?

You think I want to stay in the same room with you?

Did you finally decide to work for me?

I belong to Yongcheonru.

Why are you making a secret request, then?

I am just trying to lend you a hand.

Come on. Do not act innocent.

You switched sides once.

You betrayed your teacher, Hong Min Shik, did you not?

A smart person is good at detecting the flow.

Is that bad?

It makes you wise.

Prince Seon Yang needs someone wise to be on the throne.

If this works out, it will effectively kill Master Cheon's spirit.

So, what is your request?

Prince Eun Seong is sick?

The Defense Minister recently gifted him medicine,

and it appears to have made him sick.

Does he not know what kind of man the Defense Minister is? Why did he take it carelessly?

Prince Eun Seong told me not to tell you,

but I thought you should know.

My apologies.

No, I am glad you told me.

[Palace]

Hyungnim.

What brings you here?

I came worried because I heard you were sick.

I am okay.

You know I always had the coughs.

Come.

When did you return from Onyang?

I was worried because I heard you were recuperating.

Are you feeling better?

You have to be healthy.

As long as you and Father are healthy,

I will have no worries.

His Majesty sent me a physician. He takes good care of me.

So, I am all right.

You will stay in the palace since you are back, right?

No.

I need to be away longer to tend to something.

Hyungnim, until I wrap things up and return, please-

So, you were not staying in Onyang.

The Defense Minister was here recently.

Does what you need to wrap up have to do with that?

I cannot tell you now,

but I promise to return.

He asked me if I am practicing swordcraft these days.

He was looking for the dragon sword gifted to the princes.

So, I showed him mine.

Why did he ask you about that?

Are you dealing with some kind of a problem?

No.

Everything is okay. You should not worry.

Let me help you.

If you are in danger,

I will take that sword instead.

I will not let that happen.

You should...

focus on your health first.

Did you make progress with regard to your stay at Yongcheonru?

There will be an appointment ceremony soon.

When Master Cheon leaves his residence,

I will search quickly.

You need to hurry.

Prince Seon Yang's 10th birthday is coming up soon.

The Defense Minister is making stronger demands.

I cannot delay the proclamation ceremony anymore.

Prince Mu Yeong, you have to become the crown prince.

I heard the Defense Minister visited Prince Eun Seong.

Is there something I am not aware of going on?

The Defense Minister is trying to slander you.

If the fact that you did not go to Onyang is revealed,

he will use that against you immediately.

Please do not let your guard down.

Be careful.

Yes, Father.

Hong Jae On.

I found her.

It took a very long time.

I suppose I finally get to finish what I need to do.

Find Hong Min Shik's daughter!

Search everywhere!

She cannot be too far off!

This way!

What?

- What are you doing? - Hong Deok Su.

It is me, Lee Eun Ho.

What are you doing at this hour, Lee Eun Ho?

Does it hurt a lot?

You are faking it, are you not?

Faking, my foot.

Did you have a nightmare?

What?

I could hear you moaning outside.

Did you dream about ghosts like a child?

It is not like that, okay?

How about you?

Where have you been wandering all this time?

Follow me.

What?

Where are we going at this late hour?

What is this?

It is a peach tree branch.

It protects you from ghosts and nightmares.

Lee Eun Ho, are you superstitious?

Give it if you do not want it.

I do not care if you groan over a nightmare or not.

No, no. Sorry, sorry.

There are fewer stars than at the lake.

The fireflies were pretty.

You could not catch one and lost all of them.

Huh? It is because you suddenly held my hand-

How did you learn about this?

A branch that scares ghosts away?

I have a cousin.

When we were little,

we saw something scary.

Did you two see a ghost or something?

We saw...

something way scarier than a ghost.

I had nightmares often, then.

One day, Hyungnim brought me a peach tree branch from the garden.

I became okay since then.

What a good cousin.

Thank you, Lee Eun Ho.

So, do you not have nightmares anymore?

So, is he okay?

I will make sure that he is.

Wow, what a dependable little brother you are.

You are way more dependable than the branch.

What?

Hey, Hong Deok Su.

Hong Deok Su.

Jun Hwa, would you like to try it, too?

Kim Myeong Ho. We need to take revenge on those bastards.

Yes, let us go, Hong Deok Su.

♫ We lean on each other's shoulders ♫

Who was it?

You scared me!

Who did this?

Catch him!

♫ Ooh-ooh-ooh, the bright sun ♫

♫ Ooh-ooh-ooh, you're sparkling ♫

♫ I lift my head and get closer ♫

Hong Deok Su!

Hey! How dare you!

- It was Cheon Jun Hwa- - My handsome face...

It was Cheon Jun Hwa.

Calm down.

Guys, we need to get ready.

Look at his whiskers.

Growl!

- Is he a cat? - He is a cat.

Meow.

- It was Hong Deok Su. - No, it was Cheon Jun Hwa.

- Hong Deok Su! - It was Cheon Jun Hwa!

- Come here. - I did not do it! I did not do it!

- What? - Cheon Jun Hwa...

I cannot believe you came to my bedchambers at this early hour.

I must have come too early.

My apologies.

What is this?

We received premium pork, which is hard to get at Yongcheonru.

So, I came to gift it to you.

You trusted me and sent Prince Mu Yeong to Yongcheonru.

I thought I should return the favor somehow.

So, you brought me the premium pork?

Yes.

Prince Mu Yeong is officially becoming Yongcheonru's innkeeper today.

He lasted longer than I expected.

I am telling you because I am concerned about his safety.

If the Defense Minister runs into Prince Mu Yeong at Yongcheonru,

I would be in a tricky position as well.

That is why you should prevent that.

All the ministers are on the Defense Minister's side

and begging me to proclaim Prince Seon Yang as the crown prince.

We have not been collecting any tax, either.

So,

are you asking me a favor,

Your Majesty?

Yes, I understand.

The business partner of yours who died 12 years ago.

Are you still looking for Hong Min Shik's safe?

Why do you want to know about that?

I heard he had a fortune.

You probably could resolve a lot of things with that money.

Did you visit the palace?

[Ledger] Yes.

Have you not heard about the daughter yet?

We would hear about it if she were alive.

Hong Jae On.

She and Jun Hwa share the same character in their names.

She was not destined to die easily.

Right, how about the fortune reading of those fellows?

Would you like to see them?

Go Su Ra.

[Lee Eun Ho]

Prince Mu Yeong.

He was destined to be the king.

Will I make him the king...

or discard him?

Prince Mu Yeong's fate depends on Young Master Jun Hwa.

How interesting.

[Hong Deok Su]

This fellow named Hong Deok Su.

Are you sure you checked his fortune yourself?

Of course.

I used the date and time of birth he had written.

His fortune does not suit his face reading.

I should take a close look at him in person.

[Hong Deok Su]

True man, Hong Deok Su. Why are you getting dolled up for?

You are so slow.

Let us go.

That Jun Hwa.

I thought he would hate it and run away quickly.

But he somehow made it this far.

Of course, he did. He is your successor.

I will start the appointment ceremony now.

Yongcheonru's appointment ceremony starts now.

Master Cheon, who allowed this glorious event,

will deliver his welcome speech now.

Master Cheon's residence is in the far back side of the Yongcheonru garden.

Why did you...

join Yongcheonru?

He is supposed to be at the appointment ceremony.

That is our chance.

Search thoroughly during that brief time.

Being appointed is not the end. It is only the beginning.

What you have to do from now on is to create a new world

that is different from the outside world.

A world in which you can do anything with money.

Not the class you were born in,

but money rules in this world.

That is...

the Yongcheonru I created.

I welcome you to Yongcheonru.

The certificate and name tag will be awarded next.

Master Cheon will personally award them to the new innkeepers.

Kim Myeong Ho.

Min Du Shik.

Maeng Seok Sam.

Cheon Jun Hwa.

Lee Eun Ho.

Go Su Ra.

Father,

do not worry about me.

I will soon repay them for what they did that day.

Hong Deok Su.

Yes.

Move, move!

Move!

Move!

So, what is your request?

Yongcheonru's new innkeepers' appointment ceremony takes place tomorrow.

Someone who is involved in the murder case you are investigating will be there.

Who is Hong Deok Su?

Yes, I am Hong Deok Su.

You are under arrest...

for the murder of Kim Man Dol, the Seochon murder.

Pardon?

You managed to make it this far.

It is thanks to you, Master Innkeeper.

What is the reason you joined Yongcheonru?

It is because of my parents.

There is something...

I need to achieve for them.

Yes, I hope you achieve that goal.

Yes.

I will make sure to achieve it.

You should rest fully today.

Tomorrow will be a busy day.

[Check in Hanyang]

♫ I walked alone on the thorny path ♫

♫ With plenty of tears and a broken heart ♫

♫ Reignite the fire in the cold night ♫

♫ Fight the cold night that is overtaking me ♫

♫ Even if the world... ♫

Did you not kill him with this sword?

Hong Deok Su cannot be the culprit.

There are so many suspicious things about this.

Could you be on my side?

How far are you willing to go for Hong Deok Su?

I am willing to sell everything I own to clear his name.

Buy me, Master Cheon.

Hong Deok Su. There is something about him.

Someone from Yongcheonru

paid me money today, saying it was a compensation for you.

I will correct this, Mother.

Is it because you are worried about Hong Deok Su?

Hong Deok Su.

Stay alert.

I can correct this.

Seol Mae Hwa, I will repay you for what you did.

I waited for you for a long time.

Long time no see.

- Prince Mu Yeong. - I heard you have been looking for me.

You must have a lot to say about me.

I will never run away like a coward.
