My dear wife whom I miss so much,

I am still alive, eating well,

sleeping well, and doing well.

And I won over the prison guards
with my charm, so they treat me kindly.

The wound from the arrow
that I took for Man-seok

is healing fast.

The wound from losing Man-seok...

will never heal, though.

He was small in stature,

but his absence feels very big.

My dear Man-seok.

What is he doing there
when he should be running around?

You tried to stop me so many times.

I ended up causing your death.

It is all my fault.

I am sorry, Man-seok.

Now that I think about it,
I have never been apart from Man-seok.

By the time you receive this letter,

he will have returned to Cheongsu County.

The reason why he saved that money

was to buy us a home by the sea.

And in exchange for that,
he had quite the daring ambition

of naming our child Man-seok
of we had a son.

So, my dearest, you must have a daughter.

Do you understand?

How are you doing, dearest?

Do not worry about me, dearest.

You would worry
if you thought I was worried,

so I will not worry.

So please do not worry about me either.

Even if I could turn back time,

I would go back to meet you again.

You are the greatest gift of my life,

and every single day I spent with you

has left me with such precious memories.

I am going to write my last novel now.

Excuse me. Did you bring my notebook?

You should be thankful
for the letter-writing paper.

Do you know how expensive
that gat ornament is?

Do you know how much that is?
This is all you are giving me?

How could you only give me this for that?

Let me spoil
a little bit of the ending, only to you.

This is not a story

about a sad woman who lost her husband.

This is a story about a strong woman
who was born a slave

but became a strong legal advocate
like steadfast aloe

to help out people
despite all kinds of hardships.

From your loving husband,

who trusts that you will bring this story
to a perfect ending

in the way that befits you.

FROM YOUR LOVING HUSBAND

How can you...

cheer me on like this until the very end?

FROM YOUR LOVING HUSBAND

The strange disease?
What is this all about?

Lady So-hye has reported you,
so the office is coming to get you.

You are going to be quarantined!

Hush.

I do not have the disease.

Then, why...

Auntie, please take care of my father.

Are you insane?

You are with child.
What if something happens to you?

I have been very lucky this whole time.

I am going to count on it one last time.

What?

I am so curious about
what Bak Jun-gi is hiding...

and I must give...

my husband's book a good ending.

Please give it back.

Save me.

Gosh, one moment.

Lady Legal Advocate.

Did you catch the strange disease?

What are you two doing here?

I must ask him something.

He cannot speak.

Devoted Hearts Association
has been active in Anbyon.

We have taken in not only runaway children

but runaway slaves and even nomads
to protect and teach them.

He said in order to make the world
where everyone is respected,

one must learn first.

If that were the case, he should
have written me a letter at least.

He worried the safe house could be
put in danger if we are discovered,

and it could cause harm to the family.

Even so.

I get that he had to
pretend not to know me,

but he should have explained himself

when he met his brother in Qing.

He was not himself back then.

It was after everyone was killed

while we were briefly away.

Once again, we were labelled as traitors
because of someone's report.

When he found out that enemy went to Qing,

he went there with the sole purpose
of bringing justice to that man.

But he failed

and lost his ability to speak.

He has been suffering
from a heart disease for a few years.

He wants to spend the rest of his time
helping the sick, so…

I must go and look for my brother.

I am thinking of resigning
as soon as I am back in Hanyang.

You know that even if he returns,

nothing will change.

Lord Seong asked you

to devote that energy
to looking after Lady Ok.

When I met him in Qing,

I should have
dragged him back by the collar.

If I did that, Yun-gyeom, who is innocent,
would not have ended up there,

and Man-seok would not have died.

Sitting here like this
makes me miss him even more.

I know.

He taught us how to do the love shot
while we sat around like this.

Let us link arms like this.

Very good. Then, drink up.

What is this?

This is called a "love shot," dear sister.

If I had known this would happen,
I would have been nicer to him.

Thanks to Man-seok, I mustered up
the courage to tell my darling how I feel.

It was so fun back then.

We even got to release fireflies.

I got to be a slave hunter with him.

That is nothing. I went all the way

to Bongraegol with him
to capture Sir Heo Sun.

Sir Heo Sun.

Looking back,
we shared so many fun memories with him.

I miss our dear Man-seok.

He promised to return.

He promised
that we would survive and meet again.

He said I made the best rice in the world.

Man-seok,

eat this

and rest in peace. Okay?

Gosh, let me see.

Goodness, it is so good.

How are you so good, dear sister?

Do-kki,

it is all thanks to me that you got to
marry her, who is such a good cook.

Hey, KKeut-dong. Are you crying?

If you cry, your thing will fall off,
and you will not be able to get married.

How can I leave in peace
if you are sitting here all sad?

Just until today, okay?

Stop mourning after today.

And from tomorrow,
you must try to do your best again

for His Lordship and Her Ladyship, right?

Thank you for accepting me as your family.

I must get going now.

I had a truly marvelous time.

You see, my aloe

produced a tiny new seedling.

Mine, too.

They seem to create a few each.
The number will increase in no time.

They gave us
those precious things for free.

I did not know I would feel like this,

but I feel rather bad, to be honest.

I was dumbfounded
and disgusted at first too.

You know,

I am envious of
her fake husband's devoted love for her.

You do not think that he really killed
the real Seong Yun-gyeom, do you?

- My goodness.
- No way.

He does not seem to have
a malicious bone in his body.

How about Yuhyangso sends a petition?

He disobeyed the king's order.
Will they commute the sentence?

Then, what about Legal Advocate Ok?

Wait, should we call her Goo-deok?

Anyway, she did so much for our county
and even got us the Honorary Gate.

Can she not become a commoner at least?

Because of that, she was able to evade
being beheaded despite being

a runaway slave who committed a crime.

That knife scar on Kim Nak-soo's face?

- Yes.
- That is the crime based on principles?

Honestly, that jerk deserved to die.

I would have killed him too.

Since this is how everyone here feels,

let me make a suggestion
as the head of Mother's Sanctuary.

Yes.

There is no way Lord Seong
could have killed someone.

He should have denied it to the end
if he did not do it.

Why did he falsely confess
when there was no proof?

He was worried that Lady Ok's suffering
in prison would be prolonged.

As expected of Lord Seong.

How can there be a man so devoted
to his love in this country?

By the way, were you not shocked?

When I found out she was a runaway slave,

I was truly shocked.

Regardless of her status,

she is my only sister-in-law.

Yes, if it were not for her,

you would have been framed
for your mother's murder--

I apologize.

You are right, though.

Thank you for understanding.

I am sorry for the trouble we have caused
upon Cheongsu County.

Do not say that.

Special Inspector Seong
and Legal Advocate Ok

were treasures of our county.

If it were not for those two,

we would have
starved to death a long time ago.

Goo-deok pretending to be Ok Tae-young

and Song Seo-in pretending
to be Seong Yun-gyeom

did not cause any harm to anybody.

I have no memory of
the Seong Yun-gyeom from seven years ago.

To me, the Seong Yun-gyeom that returned

is the real Seong Yun-gyeom.

Thank you so much for saying so, my lord.

As the head of Mother's Sanctuary,

I had a discussion
with the ladies of the association.

These are the funds from selling aloes.

What if we asked Minister Bak's concubine
to sell Legal Advocate Ok to us with this?

We asked many times, but she refused.

Gosh, I knew it.

That mean concubine wench.
I hope she gets hit by lightning.

Why are you not pouring me a drink?

Pour me a drink.

The one responsible for your
father's death…

is your husband,

Lord Bak Jun-gi.

You were a hostage.

Lord Bak kept you hostage

so your father cannot name Lord Bak
even if he gets arrested.

Was I your hostage?

What do you mean?

That is why my father could not confess

that you made him do it
though he was being beaten to death.

So?

I finally understand

the tactic you use.

You find one's weakness
and then make them do dirty work for you.

And if they are caught,

you threaten them with their weakness
and get rid of them.

And you expose a case you already had
to divert attention.

Am I right?

I doubt you figured it all out yourself.
Did Goo-deok tell you?

She has the strange disease,
so I sent her to the quarantine village.

She could not have caught it, though.

She hastened her own death. How sad.

I would be lying
if I said I did not resent you.

But I also…

could not wait for you to the end…

and failed to fulfill my duty
as your wife.

So do not feel guilty.

I will not either.

Because I think...

that is the proper thing to do
for the man I love...

who has been sentenced to death...

for acting as my husband in your place.

You must be wondering
about my shabby looks.

Yes.

My identity has been revealed...

and I have become a slave again.

Hurry.

Go inside.

So, after hearing what I said,

you risked your life
to come here to find out

what Bak Jun-gi was hiding
even though you are not sick?

That was the only way
to escape that house too.

As expected of you, I must say.

What was he hiding that he found the need

to distract
the Royal Investigation Bureau?

Look over there.

They bring people in without even checking

if they have symptoms.

I was able to enter quite easily too.

Maybe it is because they get more food
if there are more patients here.

We have not received
food or medication in a very long time.

Are you saying

that he is misappropriating
the things sent here?

Rice Department and Medical Department
are both under Bak Jun-gi's control.

As Investigation Bureau got busy
because of you and your husband,

Left State Councilor's shed
is filling up to the brim.

In the end, it was all about money.

Gosh.

Do-gyeom?

Do-gyeom.

Please forgive me
for not being able to save you.

But I will protect Lady Ok
even if it means

putting my life on the line.

- Why did you come here?
- My lady!

What happened?
Do you have the strange disease?

No, I do not.

I heard that you were here.

How are you doing?

Have you lost your mind?

Please go back. What about Mi-ryeong?

If she finds out that I am here,
she will commend me.

I am not your sister-in-law anymore.

I am just someone else's slave.

How could you say something so hurtful?

No matter what anybody says,
you are a sister

and a mother to me.

Well...

Do-gyeom.

What are you doing here?

Who do you think you are to be here?

Please stop. He is your brother!

He is not my brother.

Answer me. What are you doing here?

He cannot speak.

Why can you not speak?

Why?

Even if you could speak,
no words could justify your actions.

Do-gyeom!

Because of you, an innocent man
has been sentenced to death.

Because of you,

my brother is about to die.

I am certain you recognize me.

I guess I am really close to death

as I have been given
a chance to apologize.

I will not apologize for my peace,

so do not forgive me.

Thank you for being alive,

and for mercy
you have shown toward my sins.

You do not have to look after me anymore.

I cannot possibly be so shameless…

Thank you.

Thank you.

You could lose your life.

So I was thinking...

I would like to go by myself.

What are you saying?

As she said, we could die.

I do not have a lovely wife or children.

But you are a newlywed.

Look, darling.

I think I--

You must go.

Even if you might die, you must go.

They must go and do something.

You trust me, right?

I will come back alive with Kkeut-dong,
so do not worry.

All right.

I appreciate it,

and I am sure they would do too,

so I do not want any of you to go.

It is too dangerous.

You see,

until I met Lady Ok,

I thought I was nothing.

But she taught me how to read

and encouraged me to learn the law.

Thanks to her,
I became a decent human being

even though I was born lowly.

We may not be able to change anything,

but we must do it.

Lady Ok never gave up
and did everything she could.

That is what I learned...

from her.

I am truly heartened to see all of you
gathered here to see me off.

Oh, my. You have not left yet.

There is no magistrate
and I am about to leave,

so please take good care
of Cheongsu County.

The office staff all chipped in.

It is not a lot,
but use it for your journey.

Thank you.

All right. Let us go.

What are you doing here?

The answer you seek lies beyond
this place, not within these walls.

Are you injured?

I seem to have sprained my wrist.

This kudzu root pill
works well with the pain.

Make sure to take only half...

My gosh. You should eat only half.
Why did you eat all of it?

My goodness.

Make sure to eat only half next time.

Okay.

Here.

Please decoct these as well.

- Sir Heo Sun?
- Yes.

What are you doing here,
Lady Legal Advocate?

Did this reach Cheongsu County too?

No, it did not.

But what are you doing here, sir?

There were no volunteers, so I came.

I came as I thought
I would not starve here.

Well, I suppose I was wrong.

I hear that both food and medicine
are running out.

- Is it true?
- Yes.

I gathered these from the mountain.

The nomads are fetching food
from the mountain as well.

Maybe they want us to starve to death.

I am glad it is not contagious.

It is not contagious?

One of the nurses came in contact
with an open sore, so we quarantined her,

but she did not show
any symptoms even after days.

If one does not catch it
by coming in contact,

perhaps it could be spread
through droplets or something else.

If it spread through air,
everyone here would have caught it.

I thought it was strange as well.

We keep getting more patients,
but there are no additional cases here.

The symptoms are
similar to plagues with rashes,

but Sohwalhyeolsan, Yigongsan,
and Jeongjungtang,

none of those work.

Could it be spreading
when the affected areas touch?

Well, I have not had them touch yet.

What on earth are you doing?

Yun-gyeom.

I heard that Bak Jun-gi reported

Special Inspector Seong and his wife.

My father thinks that he did so

to distract
the Royal Investigation Bureau.

He had the conclusive evidence all along.

I did wonder why he had not
presented them from the start.

Was he trying to prolong the investigation

so as to stop the inspection on himself?

I believe we had it wrong all along.

How so, my lord?

What he wanted to stop
was not the inspection.

Pardon?

What we missed...

was the strange disease.

Do you feel any discomfort?

He does not have a fever,
and I do not see any sores or spots.

If it is not contagious,

where did they all contract it from?

When I examined them,

all the patients had one thing in common.

Before they had the strange disease,
they were all suffering from something.

Oh, I have been grappling
with a weak kneecap.

When the pain worsened, I got acupuncture
or took kudzu root pills.

At some point, I started having rashes.

Like this.

Do-gyeom.

It is a blister.

What… Let me see.

I thought it was not contagious,
so how did he get it?

- Are you all right?
- No, do not come close.

Did you have any pains before?

I did sprain my wrist.

He took the kudzu root pill.

I gave it to him.

It is nothing but a painkiller.

I got it from Sinjae Pharmacy.

They did not get it
because they were sick.

They got it because they took
kudzu root pills for their pain.

You seem to be thinking,
"Why did you insist on following me here

and end up lying here helplessly?"

Do not read my mind.

Yun-gyeom is writing
a masterpiece in prison.

I am aware.

What if Yun-gyeom came back

when I met him in Qing? What would...

that have been like?

One thing is for sure.

You would...

not have been happy.

Stop speaking and get some sleep.

Only part of the food and medicine
from Rice Department

and Medical Department
is sent to the quarantined.

Only part of it?

The rest is being sent
to houses that Bak Jun-gi owns.

There is more, my lord.

We tried to follow him,

but we lost him in the pharmacy street.

Pharmacy street?

We must find out
what that is immediately.

Why are his symptoms so severe?

The other patients had
the pills in their possession too.

I think something was
mixed into those pills.

What on earth was mixed in?

I think it was hyeolseongcho.

Hyeolseongcho?

This poisonous herb is not even
listed in Compendium of Materia Medica.

It is from the West
and cannot be found in Joseon or Qing.

It seems a small amount of it was used

to display symptoms
of the strange disease.

The dosage is half a pill,

but he took a whole pill,
which led to acute poisoning.

It seems those who took a little each day
were poisoned slowly and died.

I took it every day too.

I will die soon as well.

Are you sure it is hyeolseongcho?

I was not sure with just a couple,
but when I gathered many of them,

I could smell the uniquely
strong odor that it has.

Strong odor?

He has been selling pills made out

of the medicinal herbs
he has been stocking up.

Gosh, what is that plant
that it has a strong odor?

That was hyeolseongcho.

Bak Jun-gi turned hyeolseongcho into pills
and is selling them.

What do you mean?

He is not making money
out of the strange disease.

He is spreading

a fake strange disease to make money.

Mother fell down and got injured.

Give me some kudzu root pills
for her pain.

Gosh, I ran out of them a long time ago.

I will get some late at night.
Come back early in the morning.

Not only the Investigation Bureau

but Inspector General
also stopped inspection and are after us.

I got news from the quarantine village.

That Goo-deok figured it all out.

Shall I clear things out?

Who knew it would end so soon?

Take care of it. Do not leave any trace.

Are you going to stop again?

How dare you.

Did you overhear us?

There is still a huge pile of herbs.

Why are you calling it quits already?

Do you know what this is?

A pill made out of a poisonous herb.

When you said Goo-deok
could not have caught it, I figured

it was not a strange disease.

It seems like
you prepared this for a long time.

Why are you quitting
when you have not been caught?

I cannot bring any harm
to Left State Councilor.

It is my method to stop
even at the smallest risk.

I thought you were a bold man,
but you are a coward.

But then, that is why all you did was
fill the councilor's shed.

What?

What? Are you going to hit me again?

If you hit me again,
I will kill you in your sleep.

Shall I help you?

No one would follow a concubine
who goes for walks out of boredom.

In exchange, make me your legal wife.

What?

I do not want to be looked down on
for being a concubine.

And I do not want to make this baby
the child of a concubine.

I will continue to circulate

these poisonous pills
to keep the disease spreading.

Burn down the quarantine village
so Investigation Bureau does not find out.

Let Goo-deok burn away in it as well.

There is an herb that can cure it.

Is that true?

Sir To-ji, who used to be
a royal physician, is here.

According to him, baeksacho root
can counteract against hyeolseongcho.

That herb is not rare,
but we do not have any here.

We must inform the staff officers now.

We have to get the baeksacho
and feed it to the patients.

Those officers
work for Bak Jun-gi as well.

They do not want us to get better.

I will...

- I will tell them.
- Do not bother.

Even those with higher positions
are nothing but patients here.

I know we are destined to die,
but let us not hasten our death.

I will go to Hanyang.

You cannot do that, Lady Ok.
You are with child.

I do not care. We must inform them.

We must save these people!

Once you come in here, you cannot leave.

Did you not see the guards?

The mountain behind this village
does not have any.

We go there to gather herbs.

The government office
is just over that mountain.

Even if you make it,
there will be guards everywhere.

You will all die
before you make it to Hanyang.

You must all give up.

Where are you going? Let me go with you.

Let us go.

We must take revenge on Bak Jun-gi.

What?

He is the one who ordered
the massacre of our association.

The man Master Yun-gyeom tried
to assassinate in Qing was Bak Jun-gi.

You must return.

Do-gyeom does not deserve to lose

his brother twice.

Mother!

They may burn down the quarantine village.

What?

They say that the wind
carries the germs from there.

Who on earth made such a decision?

It was the king.

Do you think he arrived?

Are you worried about him?

It is you that I am worried about.

What is going on?

They are burning this place down.

They say the wind is
the cause of the strange disease.

What are you doing?

How can the wind spread the disease?
You fools!

I am Assistant Sixth Counselor.

Bring the staff officer now!

If you have something to say, talk to me.

I am the official
who is in charge of this department.

Bak Jun-gi!

It has been a long time, has it not?

This illness is not contagious.

You know that.

What do you think you are doing?

Was exploiting the provinces not enough?

How dare you!

Do you not fear the heavens?

You dare to poison the people.

Do Left State Councilor's greeds
have no bounds?

Will it take the death of everyone
in this nation?

It is because of you.

You kept interfering,
so I had to come up with another plan!

What grand plan do you have

that you need to save up so much?

Are you planning to commit treason

to take control
of this world or something?

I am simply doing my best to do my job.

You are just like me, my lord.

You are Left State Councilor's slave.

Say whatever you want
as this is your last day.

You will have burnt to ashes
by tomorrow morning.

Be careful!

You never know when you will be abandoned.

Hae-gang!

Is this mere rat the reason why
you speak to me so crassly?

Do not leave even a trace of anything.

Burn everything to the ground!

You bastard! May the heavens punish you!

Hae-gang!

How did it go?

We questioned the owner
of Sinjae Pharmacy,

but he said he bought kudzu root pills
from an unknown person.

Kudzu root pills?

Is that not a painkiller?

We are analyzing the pills,

but it will take some time.

Left State Councilor encouraged

the king to burn down
the quarantine village.

My lord!

He claimed that the wind was
the cause of the spread,

but as we do not even have
the evidence to object,

I could not stop him.

My gosh!

Gosh.

Look here. Please try to save him.

We are all going to die anyway, my lord.

Why do they not just kill us?
I am so scared.

Should I go and try to distract them?

If you run away in the meantime...

I...

I lured them away.

Master Yun-gyeom achieved his goal.

Are you not...

The kudzu root pills are mixed…

with hyeolseongcho.

My son!

Take the patients
and give them the detoxifying herb!

Yes, my lord!

By the way, what about him?

Where is he?

We thought we would die, but we made it.

Let us hurry.

My lady, where are you going
so early in the morning?

To the ladies' tea party.

But you are not even invited.

What if they do not
let you in like before?

Eat this. It is very good for aches.

You should have one too, Kkeok-soe.

Go on.

It is good for your health.
Eat it already.

Eat up. Go on.

- Search the place!
- Yes!

What do you think you are doing?

Do you know who I am? How dare you.

We have found medicine and rice

that you siphoned off
at your houses all over Hanyang.

Are you causing this ruckus
over such a trivial matter?

We found the poisonous herb hyeolseongcho
in his shed,

and in the storehouse,

we found the kudzu root pills
mixed with hyeolseongcho.

I do not know anything about that.

This is my wife's house.

You did all of this, did you not?

Are you trying to pin that on me?

You should have cleaned it out
when I told you to.

Hey!

A government official
must look after the people,

so how could you do something
so unforgivably heinous?

As if murdering the people with poison
was not enough,

you tried to burn down
that village to hide it.

Are you not afraid of the gods?

Left State Councilor is my god.

Do you think you can punish me?

Look here!

Inform Left State Councilor immediately!

How foolish.

He is the one who ordered this.

What?

What is going to happen to me?

Hey, what will happen to me?

Concubine Kim So-hye's crime

of being an accomplice
to Bak Jun-gi's crimes is also serious,

so bind her and take her away.

Oh, no.

Let go! Let go of me!

Hey, what are you doing? Help me!

Help me! What are you doing?

Help me! Help!

Let go! No!

- My goodness, Master Yun-gyeom.
- My gosh.

Gosh, Master Yun-gyeom.

- Oh, no.
- Oh, no.

Master Yun-gyeom.

Oh, no.

My gosh.

Gosh.

Yun-gyeom.

Yun-gyeom!

Yun-gyeom!

Yun-gyeom.

Yun-gyeom!

He could not withstand
the sufferings in prison.

I was told that
Lord Seong collected his body.

The slaves will be
returned to their masters,

maids will return
to their government office,

the nomads and those who ran away
must return to their hometown,

and the criminals will be investigated
and punished accordingly.

I, Slave Goo-deok…

would like to make a defense

as a legal advocate one last time.

What is a legal advocate?

What is that?

You may do so.

These people

are neither physicians nor nurses.

This man could not...

stand his master's beatings and ran away.

That woman refused to lie with her master,

so she has branding iron marks all over.

That man could not pay his farm rent,

and that man could not withstand
excessive labor.

Despite all that, they did their best
in the quarantine village.

Thanks to them,

the patients were able to survive
when there was

no medicine or rice to be found.

They decocted the herbs all day
and gathered greens for food.

They cleaned out the patients' waste
and looked after them.

They even collected the dead bodies,
which no one wanted to do!

So how could you...

send them back to where they came from?

Please have mercy.

I beg of you to allow them a chance…

at a better life.

I will make sure
to take it into consideration.

But...

why do you not
make a defense for yourself?

I have...

no regrets, my lord.

Slave Goo-deok shall receive
the king's decree.

The king says,

"Slave Goo-deok is a felon
who disrupted the Confucian principles

and disturbed the customs."

"However,

the chief of Cheongsu County's Yuhyangso
and its members filed a petition."

"She may be a criminal
who fabricated her identity,

but she was an upright person
who showed compassion

to the people who had been wronged."

"We offer this petition to beg of you

to show your magnanimity, Your Majesty."

- We beg of you!
- We beg of you!

"Also, the people of Cheongsu County

risked their lives to undertake
a peaceful demonstration."

Please heed our wishes.

Do you know
that you can be flogged for this?

We are prepared to die.

We dare to inform you.

She does not discriminate
against those of low status.

As she is good-hearted,

she always considered our unfortunate
circumstances with generosity.

Please grant us our wish!

"Hearing the heartfelt and sincere pleas

from so many people who have come together

for you has deeply moved me."

"Moreover,

you willingly entered
the quarantine village

to uncover the truth
and saved the country from a calamity."

"You saved the subjects
that I was not able to look after."

"These feats and contributions
should be acknowledged as well."

"Therefore, considering
your merits and demerits,

I will allow Slave Goo-deok

to become a commoner."

Bak Jun-gi never named
the Left State Councilor

as the man who was behind him.

Who knows if it was
because he was loyal to him

or because he knew he would die anyway?

Oh, and Kim So-hye

became a maid of the government office

for being the concubine
of a man charged with high treason.

I suppose the child she is carrying
will end up the same as well.

My goodness. It had 12 babies.

My child.

My child.

My dear daughter!

You have been through so much.

You poor thing.

My poor Goo-deok. You poor thing.

Goo-deok, who was arrested
and stoned by the people,

came out to a flowery path

and was finally reunited with her father.

My poor child.

You poor thing.

Dearest.

Did I

provide a good ending for your novel?

Yes, it is the perfect ending, dearest.

ALOE

It is already time
for the third aloe festival,

which is the pride of our Cheongsu County.

We are expecting three times more visitors
this year than last year.

Who is in charge
of the aloe product instructions?

That would be me.

Write it nice and big
so that it is visible at a glance.

Have we not hired an art troupe yet?

Flower Artist Group is
already fully booked.

We must make it happen
even if we have to pay them more.

Do you understand?

Lady Kim, will you be the tour guide
for the product exhibition?

If you ask me to,

I must, of course, do it.

Thank you.

I urge that you pay special attention
to your tasks.

Do you understand?

- Yes, Lady Hong.
- Yes, Lady Hong.

Nomads?

You want the nomads
to settle in Cheongsu County?

In order to secure their jobs,

we must expand the farmland
and grow the aloe business...

Expanding the business is nice,

but I am worried it might disturb
the county's customs and order.

Gosh, why do you object
to every matter I propose?

Because I am the chief of Cheongsu County.

Show respect to your predecessor.

These times do not call for
such outdated customs.

Instead of doing this,

let us ask
Special Inspector Seong's opinion.

Oh, welcome.

You always look so tall and handsome,
Special Inspector Seong.

You are so blindingly radiant.

I could hear the two of you argue
from outside Yuhyangso.

I know. Why do you
always raise your voice?

Your voice is much louder, Chief Cha.

- It is?
- All right.

I have something to tell the two of you.

I have received the king's decree.

I must return
to the Royal Advisory Office.

But...

A body was buried
in your father-in-law's grave?

Yes.

They say that they will
move the body within the year.

Then, as they may change their minds,

get a written oath
with a specific date from them.

Oh, all right.

Legally, one cannot change
the purchase of a house after a fortnight.

If you want to cancel the contract,
you must submit

a complaint within three days.

Thank you.

Next, please.

It has been a long time.

What brings you here?

Did you come here to take something?
No, wait...

Welcome.

It is not that.

I opened a huge legal advocate office
in Hanyang.

Would you like to work with me?

I am not interested.

I was not asking you.

What do you think?

Me?

Peekaboo.

Goodness, you fair little thing.

That is why they named her Baek-yi.

Who do you take after to be this pretty?

Who do you think?
She takes after her pretty mommy.

My goodness.
My Baek-yi cries when she is with me,

but she stops crying
when she is with you, Mak-sim.

I know.

She must think I am her mom.

We told Baek-yi
to be reborn as a noblewoman,

and she did come back
as noblewoman Lady Baek-yi.

Baek-yi, let us go.

We must pay Yun-gyeom a visit.

But what if Lady Baek-yi catches a cold?

Yes, you two should go without her
and have some time alone.

We will look after Lady Baek-yi.

Look at this. You see?

This one.

- Father!
- My gosh.

- Man-seok.
- Man-seok!

- Mommy is here.
- Uncle is here.

- Thank you for watching him.
- It was nothing.

How is he so gentle?

Man-seok looks
just like you and my brother.

He is growing so fast.

He is so heavy
that I cannot carry him anymore.

Our dear Man-seok.

My goodness.

By the way, where is Yun-gyeom?

Well...

Yun-gyeom! We are here.

- Welcome.
- Yes.

Thank you for traveling so far.

We have some good news.

I have been assigned to a post,
so I will return to Hanyang.

Really? That is such good news!

Did you finish writing?

Yes.

I finally finished it.

They would not execute me
in the middle of the night.

So what is it?

What on earth?

Inspector Heo gave me his permission.

You must quickly
change into this and leave.

You are going to

be executed in my place?

What is the meaning of this absurd offer?

Did you think I would just thank you
and leave so willingly?

I thought I could change the world.

It was...

arrogant of me.

If you changed your mind,
you should have returned home!

I did.

But…

it was no longer my place to go back to.

"I will protect you."

"I will be your refuge."

"I will return."

I kept none of those promises to her.

So please...

do me this favor.

Let me

keep this one last promise.

Please help me.

Do not let

my brother lose his brother again.

I have saved my last breath to come here.

So,

please go back…

and live a happy life in my place.

THE TALE OF LADY OK

What do you think?

There were so many sacrifices
to get to where we are now.

Thanks to you,
I was able to fulfill my dream.

The dream of living
by the sea with my father.

That is not all.

You have a handsome husband
and an adorable son too.

But why did you take so long
to finish the book?

It took you three whole years.

Well, I had much to tweak
in the beginning.

I wrote it while I was in prison,
so it was a mess.

You are so lazy.

You are nagging me again.
To be honest, when do I ever have time?

Because of our busy Lady Legal Advocate,

I have to care for our son alone
and even your father--

All right. I hear you.

You know, the way Man-seok moves
when he is excited is

just like how
a heavenly storyteller would move.

Gosh, do not say that.

He must come in first in the state exam
and enter government service.

I can say this now,

but studying for the state exam
with you was very challenging.

It must have been
so hard for Do-gyeom too.

Man-seok!

Man-seok!
