Six Flying Dragons (2015–2016): Season 1, Episode 24 - Episode #1.24 - full transcript
[Episode 24]
Gil Seon Mi.
That peddler from before…
No, Teacher Ha Ryun
disguised as a peddler.
I was also very curious
about who you were.
Yi Bang Won…
Now that I'm taking a close look,
he has a very scary face.
What are you doing?
Why do you follow Jung Do Jeon?
Because I believe in his world.
What kind of world?
This world? Something like this?
You seem to know something…
Are you against the population-based
land policy reform?
I'm not interested in world affairs.
Some land policy reform?
It doesn't matter if it works.
It won't work though.
My only interest is…
the ones who will own the world,
relationships among those people…
"Where should I stand?"
I'm only interested in those.
Looking at your face…
you're like that, too.
You… and I are alike.
This is driving me crazy.
What's wrong with everyone?
You and I… have similar faces?
Yes! We both have cute faces.
Excuse me, but when was the last time
you saw a mirror?
You don't know about physiognomy, do you?
Of course you are a bit
better looking than I am.
But that's not how face reading works.
Hong In Bang also said so…
The whole time I was a student,
"We are alike. Hold my hand."
He said those things…
Well, I'm sure you know how it ended.
Hong In Bang!
You two are not at all alike!
You are on opposite ends!
Gil Tae Mi? He's dead!
- I'm not Gil Tae Mi!
- They are twins.
Gil Seon Mi?
- You do know, don't you?
- I do.
The new best swordsman in the country.
You don't remember.
I have a lot of questions to ask you.
Shouldn't a warrior ask questions
with his sword?
You're a man of the yang energy.
Hong In Bang is full of the yin energy.
But Hong In Bang and you are alike?
There is no such thing
as darkness in your heart.
Of course you carry out shady schemes.
But you don't even realize
that they are shady.
Since there is no darkness,
there is no guilt either.
Of course, if things go wrong,
you'd regret it.
But have you had such thoughts?
Regretting to the bones…
Feeling guilty deep down in heart…
Have you felt… that those feelings
could swallow you up?
You haven't.
I'm sure it will happen some day.
I'm still young.
And one more thing… about why you two
are completely different…
You need to rule over people.
Hong In Bang needs to serve others.
Hong In Bang should've served
Lee In Gyeom to the end!
But not you.
So from now on, you should look for
people that you'd rule over, not serve.
You remember Jang Sam Bong, right?
Jang Sam Bong?
What favor did you want to ask me?
Please protect that kid.
You left me with Jang Sam Bong.
He is Yeon Hyang's son?
Yeon Hyang's son is the best swordsman
in the country…
I believe you have a lot to tell me.
Sir!
The one who took the box is dead.
And the box also disappeared.
My…
All of us lost him.
Let's look for him separately.
- Let's go.
- Yes.
It is… Young Master Bang Won's arrow.
There was also an unknown group
in the mountain.
Bring the corpse
so there won't be any trace of us
- and cover any trace of the body.
- Yes.
It means Young Master Bang Won took it.
What are you doing?
We have to hurry up and find him.
If they find Young Master Bang Won
first…
they will take it away.
Let's hurry.
Let's go.
You're not interested
in worldly affairs…
so… what will you do with this?
The land policy reform…
I'm not interested.
And it won't work anyway.
But this, that was made in preparation
for the land policy reform…
can become a very powerful weapon.
For example…
It's locked.
Anyone outside?
Break open this lock.
- She has no robe.
- There is a spy among us.
We have to tell them.
You know you will die if you scream.
He should know about that very well.
How you're holding the sword…
is awkward.
Have you ever killed someone?
No. This is my first time holding a sword
and I've never killed anyone either.
But there's a first time for everything.
Yes, I can guarantee it.
Yes, she is capable of it.
What will you do with this wooden box?
You're really noisy.
What should we do?
Our escape isn't the priority.
We have to carry this out.
Let's do this.
If you come any closer… she will die.
Try me.
Chase after him!
Her face…
How is her face in that shape?
The dead one's clothes were gone.
There is a spy among us.
The hostage.
It's that wench you came out with.
You should've trained your brains while
you were practicing your swordsmanship.
How dare you!
I would think twice if I were you.
It's Lee Bang Ji.
We'll retreat!
Young Master, are you all right?
Let's hurry. Boon Yi is waiting
for us with the research.
Gil Tae Mi?
How does a lowly one like this
also know Gil Tae Mi?
He must've flaunted himself everywhere.
Then… Gil Seon Mi?
I won't drag this out.
Bring that bundle to me.
No. As long as I am alive,
you can't take it from me.
Don't waste your life over nothing.
Just hand it over.
It's not yours anyway,
it's your master's at best.
It's not mine.
But it is as important as my life.
Her eyes…
Do you really wish
to throw your life away?
Gil Tae Mi?
Brother!
Step away from my sister.
His sister? Is she Yeon Hyang's daughter?
He is Gil Seon Mi, Gil Tae Mi's twin.
The legendary master who disappeared.
Legendary or not…
He is making a very big mistake.
If she gets hurt
really scary people will be ready to
lose their lives to slay him.
You are Boon Yi…
I'm glad to see you alive.
If you even lay a finger on Boon Yi…
Go.
We'll see each other again.
Wait!
Don't be impatient.
As long as you're holding a sword,
we'll see each other again.
Or leave that precious thing and the girl
as important as your life, and chase me.
Do what you wish.
It's been a very long time
since I saw you, sir.
It's the first time since he ended
the fight of political factions in 1378.
Is he in good health?
He is probably not happy.
Since I didn't secure the object.
Was it what he wanted?
If it wasn't, why would I take action?
He believes Yi Seong Gye is different
from our expectations.
I will stay here for a while
and keep an eye on the situation.
Yes, I understand.
By any chance, do you know a girl
named Boon Yi in General Yi's army?
Boon Yi? I'm not sure.
I haven't heard the name before.
Should I look into it for you?
No, it's fine.
Good.
Boon Yi protected it as if it's her own
life and brought it here.
I understand your heart more than anyone,
and I won't be able to forget this.
Thank you.
I am going to write a plea to His Majesty
with Woojae now, so you can go rest.
But, Teacher…
- I saw Ha Ryun there.
- Hojung?
Then… it's true that Hojung sent
burglars to Jo Joon's house.
It means Hojung also knows what this is.
Yes, he knew about it.
We should begin before
Hojung can implement another scheme.
Tell Nam Eun to keep an eye
on the situation over there.
Yes.
What? You failed?
How can you possibly
handle a job like this?
We were a step too late. I am sorry.
How can you!
What should we do?
If all of the land information is
written there, and it is reported…
I will become penniless.
- We can't lose like this.
- Of course not.
I won't end it like this either.
Do we have another plan?
I do.
- What is it?
- My next plan is…
Teacher Lee Saek.
What? Questioning land ownership?
That's right. Yi Seong Gye will recall
the land ownership of the noble class.
But why are you telling me this?
It's a matter of time before the noble
class is impeached in Dodang!
You have to protect them, Teacher!
What? Of course the crime of taking away
people's land deserves punishment.
Why do you say
that I have to protect them?
Because we have to prevent the next move
by Yi Seong Gye and Sambong!
- Next move?
- It will be land policy reform.
Didn't I tell you?
They are trying to change
the whole country's system!
It is land policy reform! They plan
to get rid of the current system!
It does not make sense!
In order to do it
land ownership, population, size of the
land, quality and grade of the earth!
Everything has to be evaluated!
Jo Joon…
Jo Joon has already done all of the work!
What?
You may be innocent in land ownership…
but more than half of your Sadaebu
colleagues will be affected.
They are not just trying
to punish the noble class now.
To implement land policy reform
in the future
they plan to push out the powers that
will be against the reform ahead of time!
After Jo Min Soo, the noble class, and
over half of our Sadaebu leave Dodang
with the few Sadaebu members left
would you be able to fight against
Yi Seong Gye's power?
Teacher… for a bigger purpose…
You must protect Jo Min Soo!
He already went to write the plea?
Yes. We brought the research safely,
so he rushed out to write the plea.
The land policy reform
will be under way soon.
Not everything will be resolved
right away.
But if the plea is passed tomorrow
the land stolen by the noble class
will be returned.
Yes, the crime that was considered a
custom will finally be punished tomorrow.
This will be really the first step.
You must be really happy.
Are you really glad
to abolish the system?
Yes. I can't help but smile.
Maybe my dream will really come true.
Your dream?
Getting back our land and returning
to our hometown with my brother.
Boon Yi, how can you leave out Yeon Hee
when you come from the same hometown?
Yeon Hee is looking at you. Bang Ji,
Yeon Hee, and you should all go together.
Pardon?
The land issue must be resolved.
Please wait, I will resolve it.
Preventing Yi Seong Gye's tyranny is
the most important issue right now.
It's not a coincidence that "Prediction
of Yi for King" has spread.
It's a different issue between starting
the song and spreading it so widely.
You must keep an eye on Yi Seong Gye.
Sambong… Why do you
force me to protect them?
Do I have to endure the wolf
to catch the tiger again?
What do you mean?
Teacher Lee Saek and General Jo Min Soo
had a secret meeting.
They probably discussed rejecting
the plea submitted by Teacher Jung.
[Jo Joon]
Hojung is working fast.
You can think of it as playing
a game of chess with an old friend.
Do you really want
to have a match, Ha Ryun?
What should we do? If the Sadaebu
led by Teacher Lee Saek opposes it
we're at a disadvantage in numbers.
It will not pass.
If Ha Ryun united two powers
that cannot work together
I will have to dig into the crack
between them and break them apart.
Do you have a plan?
- Did you hear from Teacher Lee Saek?
- We did.
We'll gather support
and reject Jo Joon's proposal.
Both of you also
took quite a bit of land, right?
Don't say such thing!
Even if we did, it's probably not even
one-tenth of what you did.
Anyway, let's come together
and show the power of the majority!
Of course!
According to Mencius
virtuous governing begins with
establishing a land boundary.
Recently, a sly group of people
took the citizens' land…
do there are more than five, six owners
to a lot of land
and taxes were collected
a dozen times in a year.
Therefore, I request the current system
be abolished
and the right to collect tax
be redistributed.
Before that…
there is an issue
that needs to be resolved first.
Before the system is abolished
shouldn't we expose the corrupt behavior
of those who occupy land illegally
and find out who is in the wrong?
The land system is complicated
because this country has been attacked
by Japanese pirates for a long time.
Yes! It happened in the process
of gathering supplies and soldiers
to protect the country.
Yes, so let's discuss what's right
and what's wrong about it.
But in order to do so,
we have to analyze everything
about the land of this country.
Yes, it will take a few years at least.
This cannot be done by one person.
This must be done by the country
in an official manner!
Yes, of course.
Then you agree that we should investigate
the details of the land?
That's not the officials' opinion…
The issue of the land policy being
in disorder can't be resolved easily.
- Gradually--
- Yes, gradually.
It needs to be resolved gradually.
Therefore…
Why don't we start the investigation from
those who own over 1,000 gyeol of land?
If it's 1,000 gyeol…
it doesn't matter to me.
It's 1,000 gyeol?
They are the only ones… who are caught.
Sambong, how dare you!
With the 1,000 gyeol cut-off,
he completely destroyed the coalition.
Teacher Lee Saek won't betray us,
will he?
We were fooled by Sambong!
We're the only ones to be isolated!
Sir!
What should I do?
Jung Do Jeon crushed my plot
to make the enemy trap themselves!
But more than that, Teacher Lee Saek has
no reason to stay with them anymore!
This rotten noble class! How can they
steal over 1,000 gyeol of land?
Sir, do you not get a government position
this time?
No, I have to think about my next plot.
A strategist should never stop thinking.
A strategist will die
when he stops working his brain.
Brother…
Yes, you succeeded in dividing them.
I am sorry that I submitted the plea
without discussing it with you.
Hojung was about to act on his trickery
so I had no choice
but to proceed secretively.
Do you think this is because
of your secretive action?
Will you be enemies of Teacher Lee Saek?
Teacher Lee started this first.
Teacher came together with Jo Min Soo
and supported His Majesty on the throne.
But do you have to stand
against Teacher this way?
The ones I stand against
is the noble class.
And Teacher chose them.
- Just like that time.
- Sambong!
General Lee Bang Sil,
General Jung Se Woon…
and our teacher General Kim Deuk Bae…
When the three generals
were accused of treason
and when the innocent children died
in the meantime
you and I prayed to Heaven, pleaded to
His Majesty, and asked our Teacher.
Yes. Heaven looked away…
His Majesty executed the Three Generals
and Teacher… took His Majesty's side.
He kept his silence.
That is how he answered us.
He said,
"There is no justice in history."
He said, "Inevitable politics comes
before the importance of truth."
Yes, I am still confused between the two
as a scholar myself.
But it's not something I can agree with.
Isn't it the same for you?
I cannot agree either.
But Teacher is also a human being!
Can't you consider him a human being
who couldn't directly face history?
It's not important
whether I understand him or not.
Teacher is already walking his own path.
My goodness!
What on earth should we do about this?
It means that Dodang will drive out
only us, the noble class!
- We can't let this happen!
- Of course not!
We have to come up with a plan!
I'm going to meet
with Lord Lee Saek tonight.
He will not agree with Yi Seong Gye's
move, so don't worry too much.
Teacher, it's time to make a decision!
Will you go with them or not?
Now that the standard is 1,000 gyeol,
most of our Sadaebu won't be affected.
Teacher, I may be out of line
but there is no excuse to protect the
ones who took over 1,000 gyeol of land.
It is certainly Sambong's trick
to divide them…
but there is no choice.
Sambong, shouldn't we discuss
with Poeun now?
Shouldn't we go with him?
Although Poeun is
in the minority in Dodang
you are well aware of his influence
outside of Dodang.
Yes, of course. I will proceed.
Teacher!
Do you not plan to work with Poeun
for the big goal?
Why do you ask?
Why have you not told Poeun
about our big plan?
- Because I truly want to work with him.
- Pardon?
One of the most important positions
in our plan is Poeun's.
I think all the time
about when and how I should tell him.
But…
But? What is it?
To be honest, I am afraid.
Afraid?
If he rejects us, it will lead
to a crisis in our plan.
Yeon Hee…
Mister wants you to keep a
more careful watch on General Jo Min Soo.
Okay.
Yeon Hee…
I'm sorry about yesterday.
When the day comes
and we get to go home…
I didn't mean that I was
going to leave you out.
You know that, right?
Is it… all right for me to go?
When the day comes…
is it all right for me
to go home with you?
Yeon Hee…
If it is…
If I can do that…
Of course!
Let's go together.
Let's make sure to return home together!
What kind of training is that?
It is to control objects with the sword.
How do you know so well?
I've seen Bang Ji practice a lot.
Does it really work?
It does!
But Bang Ji is not that good at it.
Moo Hyul,
shouldn't you practice like that?
From what I can tell, that is impossible.
How can it work?
I'm sure there is a reason when the best
swordsman in the country does it.
I'm really busy learning the last skill
of Eastern Twin Dragons!
You're busy?
You should be doing something…
Eastern Twin Dragons! Yes, practice hard!
Brother!
Yeon Hee asked me
if she could come with me.
What do you mean?
When the day comes
when our work is complete
Yeon Hee asked me if she could go back
to our hometown with us.
You're happy, right?
Now I see… that you and Yeon Hee
used to like each other!
- It's not true!
- It's not?
That's enough. Clean up the bowls.
Why do you make me do it?
What do you mean by that?
If the land lot is over 1,000 gyeol,
it can't be coincidence.
It's crime!
And?
I have no reason to stay with you.
I have acted and spoken
as the Sadaebu to this day.
So how can I tell others
to oppose Jo Joon's reform plan?
And?
Step down from Dodang on your own.
Then I will negotiate with General Yi
so that it will be advantageous for you.
Put your faith in me and step down now.
I've said everything I have to say.
- Let's go now.
- Yes.
I didn't know Lee Saek
would act that way!
We have to do something.
- What would we do?
- Go to Lee Saek right now--
The problem is Yi Seong Gye!
It's not Teacher Lee Saek!
- Do you still have more to say?
- Yes!
Yes. Gather your soldiers.
What? Soldiers?
Are you suggesting a revolt?
Make it look that way.
Yi Seong Gye and Jung Do Jeon are keenly
interested in the public opinion.
Things they dream of are impossible
without the public's support.
But the three leaders of Dodang
were recently removed.
Also, the blood on Manwoldae
from the withdrawal of the army
has not even dried yet.
Although they can't say it out loud
the citizens are cursing Yi Seong Gye
who pushed out General Choi Young.
But now an internal strife against the
colleague who withdrew the army?
Yi Seong Gye will never be able to do it.
So, just pretend that you are preparing
your soldiers.
There is no pretense in my life.
It has to be real if it happens.
Yes, of course.
You haven't done so up to this point.
But try it just this one time.
Then they will surely ask to negotiate…
and put out their hand.
- Dae Geun!
- Yes, my lord.
Send people out and tell my private
soldiers to come to Gaegyeong.
All of your private soldiers?
They have to gather outside of Gaegyeong
by eight o'clock three days from now.
- All of this has to be done in secret.
- Yes, sir.
Go to your assigned area and
bring 500 private soldiers each.
Summon them to Jangpyung Gate, Tanhyun
Gate, and Tongdo Gate of Gaegyeong.
- That's his order.
- Yes.
- Bring out some wine!
- We're here!
Madame! Bring out some wine for us!
I'm sorry.
Sit down.
Well…
You have to be nice to me.
That's what I mean.
Here.
It's Yeon Hee.
Who is she?
Bang Ji's beloved.
Yeon…
Yeon Hee!
Are you all right?
Bang Ji!
What happened?
She fainted suddenly at the pub just now.
Are you all right?
Yes. I must have lost consciousness
for a moment.
Are you all right?
I'll get going. You should rest.
Are you working too much?
Why would you faint?
It's nothing.
I'll get going. I have a report to make.
Yeon Hee.
I heard from Boon Yi…
If things go well…
we can go back home together--
I never said that.
And it won't happen anyway.
I'll get going.
It's big trouble.
Jo Min Soo ordered to summon
his private soldiers from each base.
Something serious is going on.
Now that he's cornered,
he's planning a revolt.
- We should gather soldiers--
- We shouldn't.
- We shouldn't?
- No war can happen at this point.
But if they make a move first…
I will meet with the General right now.
I wasn't trying to imitate you.
I wanted to see if I could do it…
Moo Hyul.
Do you want to have a drink?
Drink?
Bang Ji… Ddang Sae…
He can't drink at all.
You were drinking so much,
so I thought you could take it.
You asked me to drink with you,
so we should talk!
What the heck is this?
Hey!
Bang Ji!
Give me some water.
What? Water?
Fine.
Why did it have to be today?
No, why did I happen to think today
that I would want to return home?
Like an idiot…
Although I'm not weak anymore…
why did I let my mind go when I saw him?
I… didn't even know who he was.
He was wearing a straw hat…
so I couldn't see his face.
But…
I ended up seeing his face.
Since that day…
I couldn't remember his face
no matter how much I tried.
But I recognized him right away.
And…
I remembered the buckwheat field
where the horrible thing happened.
Ddang Sae…
I thought… I forgot it all.
I did…
A man with a straw hat?
How could that possibly happen?
How…
General Jo Min Soo
is summoning his soldiers
and ordered his private soldiers from
each base to come to Gaegyeong.
Now that Teacher Lee Saek
has turned his back on him…
he seems to believe that he's cornered
at the end of an alley.
He believes he has nothing to lose.
Since he saw what happened
to Hong In Bang and Gil Tae Mi.
- Even if we win--
- This…
This cannot happen.
Agreed. Even if we gain support from all
the government officials and the citizens
we cannot guarantee the victory.
If a war breaks out, our public support
will leave us completely.
But if we stop the reform
at this point…
We will not stop.
We will slow down just one step.
Even if we win the war
we will slow down by ten steps
to bring back public support
and to proceed with the reform.
- I will negotiate with General Jo first.
- Yes.
I should have thought more carefully
on proceeding with the reform…
but we must have
been hasty with our actions.
Then please give us time to take care
of the land issue on our own.
Yes, we will.
Good. I will withdraw my order
to summon my soldiers.
I'm glad you think that way.
Then…
General Yi.
If you think about it, we were colleagues
who brought back soldiers together.
We shouldn't be like this.
Yes, you're right.
How about tonight?
Bring over everyone
generals who worked hard in Wihwa Island
and your family members…
and come to Dohwa Mansion.
I will host a party as an apology.
A party?
- Did you have a good discussion?
- Yes, of course.
General Yi gave me good advice,
so I was truly touched.
- There is no more misunderstanding.
- That's a great relief.
I've already told him, but I plan
to hold a party tonight.
I'd like it if you could join us.
Is that right? I will see if I can.
Yes, then…
A party?
He told us to come
to Dohwa Mansion tonight.
I will withdraw my order to summon
my private soldiers.
Yes, sir. I will deliver the message.
And… prepare for a party.
For a party?
Yi Seong Gye and his people
will come to a party tonight.
No one will be leaving alive.
Prepare for that party.
Party?
He must have felt embarrassed.
Since it turned out this way, I will
empty out wine in Dohwa Mansion.
I confirmed that Jo Min Soo's private
soldiers have turned back.
Party…
Jo Min Soo must feel the urgency.
He can't stand things like that.
It must also be Ha Ryun's advice.
Since we decided to reconcile, everyone
should attend and show his effort.
I won't go.
I should console
those who are disappointed.
Please send wine for them.
This is withdrawing, not running away.
Withdrawal is one of the most important
military strategies.
Yes, Father.
Dohwa Mansion?
We are going to Dohwa Mansion?
We're going to Dohwa Mansion!
We're going to Dohwa Mansion!
Yes, it's tonight. Get ready--
Seriously!
Why do we have to drink with them?
Do I have no drinking buddies?
Do you want a drink?
Think about it! Colleagues in
bringing back the soldiers?
He betrayed our General
as soon as they returned!
You should not go there
with that thought.
General made a difficult decision
for a bigger plan.
If you make a scene tonight
or have a fight after drinking
I will not let it slide.
Do you understand?
- Yes.
- Do you understand?
- Yes.
- Yes.
Yes, I understand.
Why do you throw that out?
Dohwa Mansion…
You're happy? You idiot…
Of course I'm happy! It's Dohwa Mansion!
- You're coming, right?
- Why would I go there?
You have nothing to do. Come with us!
It's Dohwa Mansion!
Like Moo Hyul said, you should
go to Dohwa Mansion.
- Are you going as well?
- I am not going…
I am just worried from my experience.
I will feel at ease if you go.
So you should go.
I understand.
Welcome.
General Jo is waiting for you.
Please come inside.
It is a party. Please leave
those heinous things here.
We will take good care of them.
Yes.
Welcome, General!
Thank you for your warm welcome.
On a happy day like this,
I wanted to gather
my family and yours and have a drink!
Serve well the ones who came
with the General.
Yes, sir.
Please come inside.
Please have a seat here.
Thank you.

[Six Flying Dragons]
Let's have a drink of camaraderie
for bringing back soldiers
and for the future of Goryeo!
Breaking the glass will be my sign.
Make no mistake about it.
There was a girl I had in mind.
- She was crying all over…
- Take Bang Ji back to the base.
Yi Seong Gye and I cannot coexist.
So I have no choice
but to attack him first.
Jo Min Soo, how dare you!
Gil Seon Mi.
That peddler from before…
No, Teacher Ha Ryun
disguised as a peddler.
I was also very curious
about who you were.
Yi Bang Won…
Now that I'm taking a close look,
he has a very scary face.
What are you doing?
Why do you follow Jung Do Jeon?
Because I believe in his world.
What kind of world?
This world? Something like this?
You seem to know something…
Are you against the population-based
land policy reform?
I'm not interested in world affairs.
Some land policy reform?
It doesn't matter if it works.
It won't work though.
My only interest is…
the ones who will own the world,
relationships among those people…
"Where should I stand?"
I'm only interested in those.
Looking at your face…
you're like that, too.
You… and I are alike.
This is driving me crazy.
What's wrong with everyone?
You and I… have similar faces?
Yes! We both have cute faces.
Excuse me, but when was the last time
you saw a mirror?
You don't know about physiognomy, do you?
Of course you are a bit
better looking than I am.
But that's not how face reading works.
Hong In Bang also said so…
The whole time I was a student,
"We are alike. Hold my hand."
He said those things…
Well, I'm sure you know how it ended.
Hong In Bang!
You two are not at all alike!
You are on opposite ends!
Gil Tae Mi? He's dead!
- I'm not Gil Tae Mi!
- They are twins.
Gil Seon Mi?
- You do know, don't you?
- I do.
The new best swordsman in the country.
You don't remember.
I have a lot of questions to ask you.
Shouldn't a warrior ask questions
with his sword?
You're a man of the yang energy.
Hong In Bang is full of the yin energy.
But Hong In Bang and you are alike?
There is no such thing
as darkness in your heart.
Of course you carry out shady schemes.
But you don't even realize
that they are shady.
Since there is no darkness,
there is no guilt either.
Of course, if things go wrong,
you'd regret it.
But have you had such thoughts?
Regretting to the bones…
Feeling guilty deep down in heart…
Have you felt… that those feelings
could swallow you up?
You haven't.
I'm sure it will happen some day.
I'm still young.
And one more thing… about why you two
are completely different…
You need to rule over people.
Hong In Bang needs to serve others.
Hong In Bang should've served
Lee In Gyeom to the end!
But not you.
So from now on, you should look for
people that you'd rule over, not serve.
You remember Jang Sam Bong, right?
Jang Sam Bong?
What favor did you want to ask me?
Please protect that kid.
You left me with Jang Sam Bong.
He is Yeon Hyang's son?
Yeon Hyang's son is the best swordsman
in the country…
I believe you have a lot to tell me.
Sir!
The one who took the box is dead.
And the box also disappeared.
My…
All of us lost him.
Let's look for him separately.
- Let's go.
- Yes.
It is… Young Master Bang Won's arrow.
There was also an unknown group
in the mountain.
Bring the corpse
so there won't be any trace of us
- and cover any trace of the body.
- Yes.
It means Young Master Bang Won took it.
What are you doing?
We have to hurry up and find him.
If they find Young Master Bang Won
first…
they will take it away.
Let's hurry.
Let's go.
You're not interested
in worldly affairs…
so… what will you do with this?
The land policy reform…
I'm not interested.
And it won't work anyway.
But this, that was made in preparation
for the land policy reform…
can become a very powerful weapon.
For example…
It's locked.
Anyone outside?
Break open this lock.
- She has no robe.
- There is a spy among us.
We have to tell them.
You know you will die if you scream.
He should know about that very well.
How you're holding the sword…
is awkward.
Have you ever killed someone?
No. This is my first time holding a sword
and I've never killed anyone either.
But there's a first time for everything.
Yes, I can guarantee it.
Yes, she is capable of it.
What will you do with this wooden box?
You're really noisy.
What should we do?
Our escape isn't the priority.
We have to carry this out.
Let's do this.
If you come any closer… she will die.
Try me.
Chase after him!
Her face…
How is her face in that shape?
The dead one's clothes were gone.
There is a spy among us.
The hostage.
It's that wench you came out with.
You should've trained your brains while
you were practicing your swordsmanship.
How dare you!
I would think twice if I were you.
It's Lee Bang Ji.
We'll retreat!
Young Master, are you all right?
Let's hurry. Boon Yi is waiting
for us with the research.
Gil Tae Mi?
How does a lowly one like this
also know Gil Tae Mi?
He must've flaunted himself everywhere.
Then… Gil Seon Mi?
I won't drag this out.
Bring that bundle to me.
No. As long as I am alive,
you can't take it from me.
Don't waste your life over nothing.
Just hand it over.
It's not yours anyway,
it's your master's at best.
It's not mine.
But it is as important as my life.
Her eyes…
Do you really wish
to throw your life away?
Gil Tae Mi?
Brother!
Step away from my sister.
His sister? Is she Yeon Hyang's daughter?
He is Gil Seon Mi, Gil Tae Mi's twin.
The legendary master who disappeared.
Legendary or not…
He is making a very big mistake.
If she gets hurt
really scary people will be ready to
lose their lives to slay him.
You are Boon Yi…
I'm glad to see you alive.
If you even lay a finger on Boon Yi…
Go.
We'll see each other again.
Wait!
Don't be impatient.
As long as you're holding a sword,
we'll see each other again.
Or leave that precious thing and the girl
as important as your life, and chase me.
Do what you wish.
It's been a very long time
since I saw you, sir.
It's the first time since he ended
the fight of political factions in 1378.
Is he in good health?
He is probably not happy.
Since I didn't secure the object.
Was it what he wanted?
If it wasn't, why would I take action?
He believes Yi Seong Gye is different
from our expectations.
I will stay here for a while
and keep an eye on the situation.
Yes, I understand.
By any chance, do you know a girl
named Boon Yi in General Yi's army?
Boon Yi? I'm not sure.
I haven't heard the name before.
Should I look into it for you?
No, it's fine.
Good.
Boon Yi protected it as if it's her own
life and brought it here.
I understand your heart more than anyone,
and I won't be able to forget this.
Thank you.
I am going to write a plea to His Majesty
with Woojae now, so you can go rest.
But, Teacher…
- I saw Ha Ryun there.
- Hojung?
Then… it's true that Hojung sent
burglars to Jo Joon's house.
It means Hojung also knows what this is.
Yes, he knew about it.
We should begin before
Hojung can implement another scheme.
Tell Nam Eun to keep an eye
on the situation over there.
Yes.
What? You failed?
How can you possibly
handle a job like this?
We were a step too late. I am sorry.
How can you!
What should we do?
If all of the land information is
written there, and it is reported…
I will become penniless.
- We can't lose like this.
- Of course not.
I won't end it like this either.
Do we have another plan?
I do.
- What is it?
- My next plan is…
Teacher Lee Saek.
What? Questioning land ownership?
That's right. Yi Seong Gye will recall
the land ownership of the noble class.
But why are you telling me this?
It's a matter of time before the noble
class is impeached in Dodang!
You have to protect them, Teacher!
What? Of course the crime of taking away
people's land deserves punishment.
Why do you say
that I have to protect them?
Because we have to prevent the next move
by Yi Seong Gye and Sambong!
- Next move?
- It will be land policy reform.
Didn't I tell you?
They are trying to change
the whole country's system!
It is land policy reform! They plan
to get rid of the current system!
It does not make sense!
In order to do it
land ownership, population, size of the
land, quality and grade of the earth!
Everything has to be evaluated!
Jo Joon…
Jo Joon has already done all of the work!
What?
You may be innocent in land ownership…
but more than half of your Sadaebu
colleagues will be affected.
They are not just trying
to punish the noble class now.
To implement land policy reform
in the future
they plan to push out the powers that
will be against the reform ahead of time!
After Jo Min Soo, the noble class, and
over half of our Sadaebu leave Dodang
with the few Sadaebu members left
would you be able to fight against
Yi Seong Gye's power?
Teacher… for a bigger purpose…
You must protect Jo Min Soo!
He already went to write the plea?
Yes. We brought the research safely,
so he rushed out to write the plea.
The land policy reform
will be under way soon.
Not everything will be resolved
right away.
But if the plea is passed tomorrow
the land stolen by the noble class
will be returned.
Yes, the crime that was considered a
custom will finally be punished tomorrow.
This will be really the first step.
You must be really happy.
Are you really glad
to abolish the system?
Yes. I can't help but smile.
Maybe my dream will really come true.
Your dream?
Getting back our land and returning
to our hometown with my brother.
Boon Yi, how can you leave out Yeon Hee
when you come from the same hometown?
Yeon Hee is looking at you. Bang Ji,
Yeon Hee, and you should all go together.
Pardon?
The land issue must be resolved.
Please wait, I will resolve it.
Preventing Yi Seong Gye's tyranny is
the most important issue right now.
It's not a coincidence that "Prediction
of Yi for King" has spread.
It's a different issue between starting
the song and spreading it so widely.
You must keep an eye on Yi Seong Gye.
Sambong… Why do you
force me to protect them?
Do I have to endure the wolf
to catch the tiger again?
What do you mean?
Teacher Lee Saek and General Jo Min Soo
had a secret meeting.
They probably discussed rejecting
the plea submitted by Teacher Jung.
[Jo Joon]
Hojung is working fast.
You can think of it as playing
a game of chess with an old friend.
Do you really want
to have a match, Ha Ryun?
What should we do? If the Sadaebu
led by Teacher Lee Saek opposes it
we're at a disadvantage in numbers.
It will not pass.
If Ha Ryun united two powers
that cannot work together
I will have to dig into the crack
between them and break them apart.
Do you have a plan?
- Did you hear from Teacher Lee Saek?
- We did.
We'll gather support
and reject Jo Joon's proposal.
Both of you also
took quite a bit of land, right?
Don't say such thing!
Even if we did, it's probably not even
one-tenth of what you did.
Anyway, let's come together
and show the power of the majority!
Of course!
According to Mencius
virtuous governing begins with
establishing a land boundary.
Recently, a sly group of people
took the citizens' land…
do there are more than five, six owners
to a lot of land
and taxes were collected
a dozen times in a year.
Therefore, I request the current system
be abolished
and the right to collect tax
be redistributed.
Before that…
there is an issue
that needs to be resolved first.
Before the system is abolished
shouldn't we expose the corrupt behavior
of those who occupy land illegally
and find out who is in the wrong?
The land system is complicated
because this country has been attacked
by Japanese pirates for a long time.
Yes! It happened in the process
of gathering supplies and soldiers
to protect the country.
Yes, so let's discuss what's right
and what's wrong about it.
But in order to do so,
we have to analyze everything
about the land of this country.
Yes, it will take a few years at least.
This cannot be done by one person.
This must be done by the country
in an official manner!
Yes, of course.
Then you agree that we should investigate
the details of the land?
That's not the officials' opinion…
The issue of the land policy being
in disorder can't be resolved easily.
- Gradually--
- Yes, gradually.
It needs to be resolved gradually.
Therefore…
Why don't we start the investigation from
those who own over 1,000 gyeol of land?
If it's 1,000 gyeol…
it doesn't matter to me.
It's 1,000 gyeol?
They are the only ones… who are caught.
Sambong, how dare you!
With the 1,000 gyeol cut-off,
he completely destroyed the coalition.
Teacher Lee Saek won't betray us,
will he?
We were fooled by Sambong!
We're the only ones to be isolated!
Sir!
What should I do?
Jung Do Jeon crushed my plot
to make the enemy trap themselves!
But more than that, Teacher Lee Saek has
no reason to stay with them anymore!
This rotten noble class! How can they
steal over 1,000 gyeol of land?
Sir, do you not get a government position
this time?
No, I have to think about my next plot.
A strategist should never stop thinking.
A strategist will die
when he stops working his brain.
Brother…
Yes, you succeeded in dividing them.
I am sorry that I submitted the plea
without discussing it with you.
Hojung was about to act on his trickery
so I had no choice
but to proceed secretively.
Do you think this is because
of your secretive action?
Will you be enemies of Teacher Lee Saek?
Teacher Lee started this first.
Teacher came together with Jo Min Soo
and supported His Majesty on the throne.
But do you have to stand
against Teacher this way?
The ones I stand against
is the noble class.
And Teacher chose them.
- Just like that time.
- Sambong!
General Lee Bang Sil,
General Jung Se Woon…
and our teacher General Kim Deuk Bae…
When the three generals
were accused of treason
and when the innocent children died
in the meantime
you and I prayed to Heaven, pleaded to
His Majesty, and asked our Teacher.
Yes. Heaven looked away…
His Majesty executed the Three Generals
and Teacher… took His Majesty's side.
He kept his silence.
That is how he answered us.
He said,
"There is no justice in history."
He said, "Inevitable politics comes
before the importance of truth."
Yes, I am still confused between the two
as a scholar myself.
But it's not something I can agree with.
Isn't it the same for you?
I cannot agree either.
But Teacher is also a human being!
Can't you consider him a human being
who couldn't directly face history?
It's not important
whether I understand him or not.
Teacher is already walking his own path.
My goodness!
What on earth should we do about this?
It means that Dodang will drive out
only us, the noble class!
- We can't let this happen!
- Of course not!
We have to come up with a plan!
I'm going to meet
with Lord Lee Saek tonight.
He will not agree with Yi Seong Gye's
move, so don't worry too much.
Teacher, it's time to make a decision!
Will you go with them or not?
Now that the standard is 1,000 gyeol,
most of our Sadaebu won't be affected.
Teacher, I may be out of line
but there is no excuse to protect the
ones who took over 1,000 gyeol of land.
It is certainly Sambong's trick
to divide them…
but there is no choice.
Sambong, shouldn't we discuss
with Poeun now?
Shouldn't we go with him?
Although Poeun is
in the minority in Dodang
you are well aware of his influence
outside of Dodang.
Yes, of course. I will proceed.
Teacher!
Do you not plan to work with Poeun
for the big goal?
Why do you ask?
Why have you not told Poeun
about our big plan?
- Because I truly want to work with him.
- Pardon?
One of the most important positions
in our plan is Poeun's.
I think all the time
about when and how I should tell him.
But…
But? What is it?
To be honest, I am afraid.
Afraid?
If he rejects us, it will lead
to a crisis in our plan.
Yeon Hee…
Mister wants you to keep a
more careful watch on General Jo Min Soo.
Okay.
Yeon Hee…
I'm sorry about yesterday.
When the day comes
and we get to go home…
I didn't mean that I was
going to leave you out.
You know that, right?
Is it… all right for me to go?
When the day comes…
is it all right for me
to go home with you?
Yeon Hee…
If it is…
If I can do that…
Of course!
Let's go together.
Let's make sure to return home together!
What kind of training is that?
It is to control objects with the sword.
How do you know so well?
I've seen Bang Ji practice a lot.
Does it really work?
It does!
But Bang Ji is not that good at it.
Moo Hyul,
shouldn't you practice like that?
From what I can tell, that is impossible.
How can it work?
I'm sure there is a reason when the best
swordsman in the country does it.
I'm really busy learning the last skill
of Eastern Twin Dragons!
You're busy?
You should be doing something…
Eastern Twin Dragons! Yes, practice hard!
Brother!
Yeon Hee asked me
if she could come with me.
What do you mean?
When the day comes
when our work is complete
Yeon Hee asked me if she could go back
to our hometown with us.
You're happy, right?
Now I see… that you and Yeon Hee
used to like each other!
- It's not true!
- It's not?
That's enough. Clean up the bowls.
Why do you make me do it?
What do you mean by that?
If the land lot is over 1,000 gyeol,
it can't be coincidence.
It's crime!
And?
I have no reason to stay with you.
I have acted and spoken
as the Sadaebu to this day.
So how can I tell others
to oppose Jo Joon's reform plan?
And?
Step down from Dodang on your own.
Then I will negotiate with General Yi
so that it will be advantageous for you.
Put your faith in me and step down now.
I've said everything I have to say.
- Let's go now.
- Yes.
I didn't know Lee Saek
would act that way!
We have to do something.
- What would we do?
- Go to Lee Saek right now--
The problem is Yi Seong Gye!
It's not Teacher Lee Saek!
- Do you still have more to say?
- Yes!
Yes. Gather your soldiers.
What? Soldiers?
Are you suggesting a revolt?
Make it look that way.
Yi Seong Gye and Jung Do Jeon are keenly
interested in the public opinion.
Things they dream of are impossible
without the public's support.
But the three leaders of Dodang
were recently removed.
Also, the blood on Manwoldae
from the withdrawal of the army
has not even dried yet.
Although they can't say it out loud
the citizens are cursing Yi Seong Gye
who pushed out General Choi Young.
But now an internal strife against the
colleague who withdrew the army?
Yi Seong Gye will never be able to do it.
So, just pretend that you are preparing
your soldiers.
There is no pretense in my life.
It has to be real if it happens.
Yes, of course.
You haven't done so up to this point.
But try it just this one time.
Then they will surely ask to negotiate…
and put out their hand.
- Dae Geun!
- Yes, my lord.
Send people out and tell my private
soldiers to come to Gaegyeong.
All of your private soldiers?
They have to gather outside of Gaegyeong
by eight o'clock three days from now.
- All of this has to be done in secret.
- Yes, sir.
Go to your assigned area and
bring 500 private soldiers each.
Summon them to Jangpyung Gate, Tanhyun
Gate, and Tongdo Gate of Gaegyeong.
- That's his order.
- Yes.
- Bring out some wine!
- We're here!
Madame! Bring out some wine for us!
I'm sorry.
Sit down.
Well…
You have to be nice to me.
That's what I mean.
Here.
It's Yeon Hee.
Who is she?
Bang Ji's beloved.
Yeon…
Yeon Hee!
Are you all right?
Bang Ji!
What happened?
She fainted suddenly at the pub just now.
Are you all right?
Yes. I must have lost consciousness
for a moment.
Are you all right?
I'll get going. You should rest.
Are you working too much?
Why would you faint?
It's nothing.
I'll get going. I have a report to make.
Yeon Hee.
I heard from Boon Yi…
If things go well…
we can go back home together--
I never said that.
And it won't happen anyway.
I'll get going.
It's big trouble.
Jo Min Soo ordered to summon
his private soldiers from each base.
Something serious is going on.
Now that he's cornered,
he's planning a revolt.
- We should gather soldiers--
- We shouldn't.
- We shouldn't?
- No war can happen at this point.
But if they make a move first…
I will meet with the General right now.
I wasn't trying to imitate you.
I wanted to see if I could do it…
Moo Hyul.
Do you want to have a drink?
Drink?
Bang Ji… Ddang Sae…
He can't drink at all.
You were drinking so much,
so I thought you could take it.
You asked me to drink with you,
so we should talk!
What the heck is this?
Hey!
Bang Ji!
Give me some water.
What? Water?
Fine.
Why did it have to be today?
No, why did I happen to think today
that I would want to return home?
Like an idiot…
Although I'm not weak anymore…
why did I let my mind go when I saw him?
I… didn't even know who he was.
He was wearing a straw hat…
so I couldn't see his face.
But…
I ended up seeing his face.
Since that day…
I couldn't remember his face
no matter how much I tried.
But I recognized him right away.
And…
I remembered the buckwheat field
where the horrible thing happened.
Ddang Sae…
I thought… I forgot it all.
I did…
A man with a straw hat?
How could that possibly happen?
How…
General Jo Min Soo
is summoning his soldiers
and ordered his private soldiers from
each base to come to Gaegyeong.
Now that Teacher Lee Saek
has turned his back on him…
he seems to believe that he's cornered
at the end of an alley.
He believes he has nothing to lose.
Since he saw what happened
to Hong In Bang and Gil Tae Mi.
- Even if we win--
- This…
This cannot happen.
Agreed. Even if we gain support from all
the government officials and the citizens
we cannot guarantee the victory.
If a war breaks out, our public support
will leave us completely.
But if we stop the reform
at this point…
We will not stop.
We will slow down just one step.
Even if we win the war
we will slow down by ten steps
to bring back public support
and to proceed with the reform.
- I will negotiate with General Jo first.
- Yes.
I should have thought more carefully
on proceeding with the reform…
but we must have
been hasty with our actions.
Then please give us time to take care
of the land issue on our own.
Yes, we will.
Good. I will withdraw my order
to summon my soldiers.
I'm glad you think that way.
Then…
General Yi.
If you think about it, we were colleagues
who brought back soldiers together.
We shouldn't be like this.
Yes, you're right.
How about tonight?
Bring over everyone
generals who worked hard in Wihwa Island
and your family members…
and come to Dohwa Mansion.
I will host a party as an apology.
A party?
- Did you have a good discussion?
- Yes, of course.
General Yi gave me good advice,
so I was truly touched.
- There is no more misunderstanding.
- That's a great relief.
I've already told him, but I plan
to hold a party tonight.
I'd like it if you could join us.
Is that right? I will see if I can.
Yes, then…
A party?
He told us to come
to Dohwa Mansion tonight.
I will withdraw my order to summon
my private soldiers.
Yes, sir. I will deliver the message.
And… prepare for a party.
For a party?
Yi Seong Gye and his people
will come to a party tonight.
No one will be leaving alive.
Prepare for that party.
Party?
He must have felt embarrassed.
Since it turned out this way, I will
empty out wine in Dohwa Mansion.
I confirmed that Jo Min Soo's private
soldiers have turned back.
Party…
Jo Min Soo must feel the urgency.
He can't stand things like that.
It must also be Ha Ryun's advice.
Since we decided to reconcile, everyone
should attend and show his effort.
I won't go.
I should console
those who are disappointed.
Please send wine for them.
This is withdrawing, not running away.
Withdrawal is one of the most important
military strategies.
Yes, Father.
Dohwa Mansion?
We are going to Dohwa Mansion?
We're going to Dohwa Mansion!
We're going to Dohwa Mansion!
Yes, it's tonight. Get ready--
Seriously!
Why do we have to drink with them?
Do I have no drinking buddies?
Do you want a drink?
Think about it! Colleagues in
bringing back the soldiers?
He betrayed our General
as soon as they returned!
You should not go there
with that thought.
General made a difficult decision
for a bigger plan.
If you make a scene tonight
or have a fight after drinking
I will not let it slide.
Do you understand?
- Yes.
- Do you understand?
- Yes.
- Yes.
Yes, I understand.
Why do you throw that out?
Dohwa Mansion…
You're happy? You idiot…
Of course I'm happy! It's Dohwa Mansion!
- You're coming, right?
- Why would I go there?
You have nothing to do. Come with us!
It's Dohwa Mansion!
Like Moo Hyul said, you should
go to Dohwa Mansion.
- Are you going as well?
- I am not going…
I am just worried from my experience.
I will feel at ease if you go.
So you should go.
I understand.
Welcome.
General Jo is waiting for you.
Please come inside.
It is a party. Please leave
those heinous things here.
We will take good care of them.
Yes.
Welcome, General!
Thank you for your warm welcome.
On a happy day like this,
I wanted to gather
my family and yours and have a drink!
Serve well the ones who came
with the General.
Yes, sir.
Please come inside.
Please have a seat here.
Thank you.

[Six Flying Dragons]
Let's have a drink of camaraderie
for bringing back soldiers
and for the future of Goryeo!
Breaking the glass will be my sign.
Make no mistake about it.
There was a girl I had in mind.
- She was crying all over…
- Take Bang Ji back to the base.
Yi Seong Gye and I cannot coexist.
So I have no choice
but to attack him first.
Jo Min Soo, how dare you!
