So, that was what happened.
That young Damo is certainly talented.
Her painting at the feast was quite good.
I think so too, Your Highness.
Oh, didn't you say that she drew a painting
on the subject I gave to the artists?
Yes, Your Highness.
I am curious about that painting.
May I see it?
Yes, I will bring it to you right away.
This is it, Your Highness.
Is this... the painting the Damo drew?
Yes, Your Highness.
Do you know that girl's name?
What did she say her name was?
It is Song Yeon, Your Highness.
Sung Song Yeon.
What did you just say?
Did you say Song Yeon?
Yes, Your Highness.
Song Yeon...
That girl... she was Song Yeon!
Where is she now?
Is she here at the Bureau?
Yes.
Episode 8
Where are all the other Damos?
They are doing the laundry.
- Go and bring Song Yeon to my office.
- Song Yeon?
She is not on duty today, and is not here.
- Is that so?
- Yes.
Does anyone know where she lives?
I know where she lives, Sir.
She lives past Gwanggyo.
But why are you looking for her?
What did you just say, Your Highness?
You found Song Yeon?
Do you see this?
She drew this painting!
That Attendant Damo
at the feast was Song Yeon!
Why did I not think she was in the Capital?
We only looked for her far from here!
Your Highness!
I am so foolish.
She was right here and I didn't know!
- I saw her and yet didn't recognize her!
- Yes, Your Highness!
- Are you leaving for work?
- Yes, I'll be back soon.
Uncle, I'm going too.
Going where, you wretched boy!
What trouble are you going to get yourself into?
- It's not that...
- Dae Su!
I'm not getting into trouble.
The military exam is coming up again,
and I wanted to find out more about it.
I heard in the marketplace that there are men
who have passed the exams
who will tutor others for a fee.
They will tutor you and test you.
That's what I wanted to find out.
Did they beat you up too much?
- Are you serious?
- Do I look like I'm joking to you?
Dae Su!
I have to pass this last exam, but I am quite behind.
I may not pass the first time around.
- I'm a bit dumb too.
- I'm so glad you've changed your mind!
Don't worry, Dae Su. Everything will be fine.
I'll help you.
- Let's go.
- Be careful on the road.
Don't worry.
I'll make sure he doesn't get himself in trouble.
- I won't get in trouble!
- Shut up! How can I trust you?
- Help me with the cart!
- You treat me like a slave!
- Song Yeon! Song Yeon!
- Oh, Sir!
Oh good, you're home.
- What brings you here?
- You weren't at the Bureau, so I came to find you!
- Can I ask you a question?
- Yes, My Lord.
Where is Songsadong Village near Daejanggan?
Oh yes.
Take this road straight down.
Thank you.
Anybody there?
Anybody there?
Anybody there?
- Follow me.
- Alright.
- Please wait here.
- Alright.
- Let's sit.
- Yes.
They want me to paint Madam's portrait.
But I'm not allowed to see her face as I'm a man,
so I have to paint it with the screen down!
Can I see her eyes properly?
Can I see her nose properly?
When the Madam comes, help me by looking
at her and explaining it to me.
You always bother me on my day off.
- Song Yeon...!
- Alright, fine.
Madam, before I start, I would like
to send in my Damo to look at your face.
Go ahead.
Her eyebrows are thick, and her eyes are
between the cheekbone and forehead.
- Her nose is small.
- Alright, thanks.
Mix the pigments for me, and you can go.
Yes, Sir.
A small nose?
- Hey!
- Yes?
Come here for a moment.
What?
What is it, My Lady?
These are Maejak Biscuits.
Do you know how to make these?
What?
Yes.
Good.
Can you help me make some?
Alright.
You are skilled in your hands.
They are the same biscuits,
but your colors are nicer and looks more appetizing.
Your talents are wasted being as a servant.
I shall speak with my mother
and use you as Royal Attendant.
No, My Lady. I am an Attendant Damo
here with the Royal Artist from the Bureau.
Is that so? Forgive me.
I thought you were the new servant.
Your Highness! Your Highness!
I have to be on my way now.
Thank you for your help.
- Your Highness! Princess!
- I'm here.
Your Highness!
Where have you been? The Crown Princess
is waiting for you with a physician!
Really?
Her Majesty has sent
a Royal Physician to examine you.
He is waiting for you at the sanctuary.
Please go and be examined.
Please forgive me for worrying you, Mother.
What is this?
This is Maejak Biscuits.
I made them to give to the prince.
You left the Palace to be treated for your anemia.
Why are you doing such things?
Please forgive me.
I just wanted to make something for
my husband to eat like other wives.
I understand how you feel.
But it is much more important for you
to be healed and return to the Palace.
You have to take care of the prince.
Yes, Mother.
- Sir, have you received the book I ordered?
- Just wait a while.
- Excuse me.
- What?
You must have dropped this.
Your Highness!
Why are you here alone?
Did you not meet her?
Please forgive me.
A neighbor told me that
she has been living there for a year.
It is said she lives with a merchant
and a young man her age.
It must be Official Park and Dae Su.
Then they all live together?
Yes, Your Highness.
So they were all together.
But when I got to the house,
there was nobody there.
I came back because
I knew you would be waiting.
- The neighbor didn't know where they went?
- No, they didn't.
This should be enough for you and your men
to go away somewhere.
- You must leave tonight.
- Yes, Sir. Don't worry about us.
- Did you tie it tight?
- Yes.
Hurry up!
Where is the girl?
- She's right there.
- Is she?
You're the wench that lives with Park Dae Su?
- We have to leave the Capital tonight.
- No. I want to bury Dae Su first.
- But...!
- Tell Dae Su.
Tell him if he wants to see
that wench to come here.
Lock her up in the shed!
- The men will be leaving the Capital tonight.
- Alright. You can leave now.
Yes, My Lord.
Tell Her Highness that everything
has been settled.
Alright.
- When is the meeting being held?
- It is in three days.
He will come as well.
This incident has made him worry.
Auntie! Give us two bowls of soup and rice.
And give us some pancakes too!
Do you know how much that will cost?
Forget that order! Give us two bowls...
one bowl of soup and give us two spoon!
Just give us two bowls.
Alright, don't fight!
Just eat. I won't charge you!
- Really?
- We don't need it. Take it away.
Just take the money.
Don't you know that money is your husband?
Don't worry! This is one bowl
separated into two! Just eat.
What use is there for such a husband?
Does money kiss you or embrace you?
You know... you look really tired today.
Do you want to come in and rest a bit?
- Oh my god!
- Are you crazy, woman?
Why... why would I sleep here
when I have my own house?
I... I just thought you looked tired...!
Don't worry about me and go back to work.
All you do is eat and work.
- Oh, and take this.
- I said I don't want it!
Not you!
I'm talking to him.
You know those thugs you were with?
They left this for you.
They said to come and find the owner
before the night curfew.
- What is that?
- This is Song Yeon's.
Song Yeon's?
Wait... Did they...?
Dae Su! Dae Su!
- Calm... calm down!
- Look at this! They have Song Yeon!
- So let's ask around!
- No need for that! I know this is hers!
There must be brushes laying
around everywhere. What if it's a trap?
If they want to get a brush,
they can get it anywhere!
Uncle!
So stop going crazy and
let's find out what happened.
Let's go to the Bureau and the house first.
Go on! Go on!
Uncle, wait!
I'll go in first.
You go around the back.
Why can't we have one normal day?
Excuse me.
Are you... Dal Ho?
My Lord!
Let... let go!
Who are you?
Why are you standing here?
- You must be Dae Su!
- That's right! I'm Park Dae Su!
Who are you?
Did the thugs from Yanghwajin send you?
- Don't you know me?
- What?
Your punches are just as painful
as nine years ago.
Your... Your Highness!
Are... are you crazy? You hit the prince!
Do you have a death wish?
The prince...?
Have you gone mad, Uncle?
That's right, you fool! That's the prince.
He came here to see you and Song Yeon!
He came here to look for us.
It has been a long time, Dae Su.
How have you been?
Are... are you really His Highness?
Your Highness!
Your Highness!
Your Highness! Please forgive me!
I was crazy so i committed a sin against you.
It's alright.
You may stand now.
No, Your Highness!
Please kill me! I have dared to...
Have you forgotten what I told you before?
Would I harm my friend for this trivial thing?
Your... Your Highness!
We looked for you everywhere
for the past nine years.
We didn't think you would be
right under our noses!
I never imagined in my dreams
that you would still remember us!
Not in a million dreams!
I was going to send for you
to come to the Palace.
But I realized people would look at you,
so I decided to come out.
When I found out how close you were,
I just couldn't wait!
Your Highness!
But where is Song Yeon?
I heard she lived together with you?
What is the matter?
Has something happened?
That... that...
Just wait for the curfew bell.
After that, you can do whatever you want.
Did you just say that there was a Minister
involved in the theft of the tributes?
Who is that man?
I... I don't know that.
It's all my fault, Your Highness!
All of the trouble you had with the Ambassador,
and now this with Song Yeon...
It is all because I stole
the white cotton with them!
Where is their headquarters?
It is at Yanghwajin.
Go and find out how many police
are available now.
- Your Highness, you mean...?
- I will arrest them with the help of the Police Bureau!
No, Your Highness, you must not do so!
If you do, your presence outside
the Palace will be known.
If you use the Police Bureau,
you may never find the mastermind!
Dae Su cannot rescue Song Yeon by himself!
They are men who have broken the laws
and stolen the white cotton tributes!
Are you saying I should do nothing?
- Your Highness!
- Your Highness!
- Did they say before the curfew?
- Yes.
It is already late.
We must hurry!
I cannot do that, Your Highness!
His Majesty's orders are needed
to dispatch the police!
Even though you are the prince,
we cannot obey without His Majesty's approval!
- And it is so late...!
- I said it is an emergency!
I will obtain His Majesty's orders for you tomorrow.
So give me your soldiers now!
- No, Your Highness!
- You fool! Do you dare to disobey me?
Please understand my predicament!
I need at least the Minister's approval!
- I do not have the authority to dispatch them!
- I am asking you because the Minister isn't here!
In his absence, is it not you that is responsible?
Yes, Your Highness, but I cannot obey your orders!
You wretch!
Do you wish to die?
Your Highness...!
Dispatch the soldiers immediately!
It doesn't look like Dae Su is coming.
I thought he valued her,
but he must value his life more.
I'm leaving first, so take care of her.
Stay still, you wench!
Let go of her, you filthy bastard!
- Song Yeon!
- Dae Su!
Don't worry, Song Yeon.
- You're here?
- That's right. I'm here.
- Now let her go.
- Seize him!
Yes.
No, Dae Su! No!
- You have me, now let her go!
- No. I promised them they could have her.
Take him outside!
Song Yeon! Song Yeon!
Dae Su! Dae Su!
- Bury him!
- Let me go! Let me go!
- No! Let her go!
- Bury him.
Bury him completely!
Hurry up!
What's that sound?
- It's the police!
- Let's go!
These are the thieves that stole the tributes!
Arrest all of them!
This is bad!
The police are here!
Let's run!
What... what about her?
Dae Su!
Take him out!
Your Highness!
- Are you alright?
- Yes, Your Highness.
Song Yeon...
Where is Song Yeon?
She is in that shed there.
There should have been a girl in the shed.
Did you see her?
There was no one there when we got there.
- She must be somewhere. Find her!
- Yes, Your Highness!
Your Highness!
Your Highness!
Where is Song Yeon?
We cannot find her.
Song... Song Yeon!
Song Yeon!
Your Highness...
Get up, you wench!
Hurry up! Get up!
What did you just say?
Didn't you tell me they had
already left the Capital?
Forgive me, Your Excellency!
I didn't know this was going to happen!
The prince?
Why did they have to get
caught by the prince?
How.. how could this have happened?
Send a message to the Sixth Secretary
and ask him for a meeting!
Let me go!
Don't be so rough!
Your Highness!
What happened?
Have they found Song Yeon?
This is torn fabric from a skirt.
They found it in the woods.
A few of the men are missing.
They must have taken Song Yeon.
You're making me dizzy!
Sit down and wait patiently!
How can I sit at a time like this!
Your Highness!
Your Highness!
Have you found Song Yeon?
Forgive me.
Why can't you find her?
What are all the police doing?
How could that be?
Could she...?
No, I'm sure it's not.
The men must have taken her with them.
She is alive.
I'm sure she's alive.
Forgive me.
If only I had been a little faster...
No, Your Highness!
It's all my fault!
Your Highness...!
Your Highness, Your Highness!
Bad news.
You must return to the Palace immediately.
I can't do that!
We haven't found Song Yeon yet!
Royal Eunuchs are waiting
for you at the Police Bureau.
His Majesty has ordered you
to return immediately.
He must have found out about this.
You may go back now.
Yes, Your Highness.
Your Highness, you must leave now.
It seems that His Majesty is very angry.
Your Highness, if you delay any longer...
- ... the consequences...
- I know.
Your Highness, I'm sure Song Yeon is safe.
Please don't worry and return to the Palace.
You know her.
You know she's tough and resilient.
She will foil their plans
and escape their clutches.
She'll return.
I'll find her.
Please return to the Palace, Your Highness.
Dae Su...
You made a promise to us.
You said you would stay safe
until we came to you.
If Song Yeon found out that you were
in trouble because of her,
she would be devastated.
So you must go back for her.
Go back to the Palace and keep yourself safe.
I will go back and do whatever I can
to bring Song Yeon back.
What? Yes...
Thank you!
Stay here.
- What?
- Stay here and help them find Song Yeon.
But Your Highness, if I stay here,
what about you?
- Who will be with you...?
- I beg you. Please stay here.
Your Highness! I am Attendant Kim.
Enter.
So, what did they say?
The prince left the Palace secretly and dispatched
the police bureau! The Palace is in chaos!
All the Ministers have returned to the Palace
to discuss this incident!
Prepare the palanquin.
I will return to the Palace.
But Your Highness...!
You are still unwell...!
The prince will go through great trouble
because of this. How can I stay here?
Prepare the palanquin!
- Is His Majesty inside?
- He has ordered not to let anyone enter.
Please hear our plea, Your Majesty!
Announce me to His Majesty.
- But...
- Announce me!
This has never happened before!
The Prince not only left the Palace in secret,
but he dispatched the police bureau
for his private affairs!
Not only that, he threatened an official with
his sword and forced him to disobey the law!
This is a great travesty!
How could he do such a thing?
What is the Police Bureau?
They are soldiers used for the King's bidding!
Despite his lack of authority, the Prince used his status
to threaten these men and to force them to do his bidding!
You must not allow this to go unpunished!
Please hear our plea, Your Majesty!
Please hear our plea, Your Majesty!
Please hear our plea, Your Majesty!
- The prince begs your audience.
- Let him enter.
I gave orders for you to wait.
What are you doing here?
I came to tell you something, Your Majesty.
What is it?
Did you come to explain your foolish behavior?
- No.
- No?
Your Majesty, I have come to request
for your authorisation to investigate the
people behind the thugs arrested yesterday.
What did you say?
Thugs?
The men I arrested yesterday were men who
were involved in the theft of the white cotton.
I have since found out that
Government Ministers who oppose me
gave them the orders to steal the tributes.
Are you saying that it was planned
by Ministers who opposed you?
Why are you silent?
Do you take responsibility for your words?
I will show you that those words are true.
Please give me your authority
so that all facts may be confirmed!
Have you been well, Your Majesty?
Yes, I have been well.
But what has happened?
I heard from the physician
that you were still unwell.
Forgive me, Your Majesty.
Princess Hyo Eui - Jeong Jo's wife
When I was at home, I heard that
the Prince was in trouble.
I know how you are feeling.
You must have been so shocked.
I was just about to go to see His Majesty
and to ask him to be merciful.
Your Majesty...!
Why have you gotten so thin?
I will order some tonics to be made for you.
Send a message to the physician.
I wish to see him.
Yes, Your Majesty.
I will try my best to help the prince.
Please don't worry and take care of yourself.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Do you truly believe that
someone planned all this to frame you?
Yes, I'm afraid so, Your Majesty.
Go ahead.
I will give you all authority
as you have requested.
Go and find those who
have plotted against you.
If what you say is true and there are
government ministers behind them,
I will not forgive them.
You will have to reveal the whole truth
without any error. Do you understand?
Yes, I understand, Your Majesty.
Come out! Come out, you bastard!
Let me go!
I know you're that bastard's friend.
He must sent you a message. Tell me!
Where is he?
Tell me! Tell me!
My Lord!
What did you find out?
I don't think they went to the port.
What about you?
They're fugitives now and won't come out.
No one has seen them.
That's strange. If they are with Song Yeon,
someone should have seen them.
Did they bury her or sell her off somewhere?
Uncle, how can you say that!
I... I'm worried too.
From now on, no one can speak to the
criminals without His Highness' approval.
The Prince will be interrogating
the criminals himself tomorrow.
All the soldiers and police
involved in this investigation
must act only under His Highness' direction.
- Do you understand?
- Yes, Sir!
I have placed my imperial seal upon this scroll.
Use it when you need to.
Your Highness, perhaps you
should give someone else the responsibility.
I should be with you at all times.
- What if something happens to you...?
- Don't worry about me.
Finding Song Yeon is a more urgent matter.
Give me two more yang!
Look at her!
She's such a pretty girl!
Alright then.
I'll give you one and a half yang.
Let me go!
Please let me go!
- Please don't do this!
- Stay here quietly!
Please open this door!
Please let me out!
- Please let me out!
- It's no use.
Who... who are you?
Where... where is this place?
Where are we?
This is a brothel.
- Wh.. what?
- Are you deaf?
You've been sold as a prostitute.
How sick is Song Yeon?
She hasn't been at work in two days!
I don't know.
I'm going to visit her today.
That's no good.
Maybe I made her work too hard.
Come here for a moment!
- Yes, Sir!
- Do you call this a painting?
It is so crude!
There is no precision!
And your colors are so off!
- Forgive me, Sir.
- Take it back and do it again!
Yes, Sir.
How did such a famous artist such
as Artist Lee bring forth such a son!
He is so incompetent!
It is said that the disappointment
of his family is great.
Sir! Sir Yi Chun!
Why are you here?
What do you mean?
I've come to collect the erotica.
You've never missed a deadline before,
but you didn't contact us.
Come with me.
- The Bureau was busy, so I couldn't do much.
- That's alright.
Oh my...!
What a work of art!
Do you like it? I tried a different method
by emphasizing the man.
The technique and the colors...!
You are truly a genius!
You will be a legend in the world of erotica!
A legend?
How flattering...
I have met many artists in my time,
but you are the best I have ever worked with.
I would like to invite you to my house one day
and watch you draw a painting!
Now you're embarrassing me!
This one's for free.
Thank you!
I need it back.
Move aside!
Move aside!
How sick are you?
The physician tells me
my diabetes has worsened.
Why did you let that happen?
The Princess is looking for you,
but we have no choice.
- I will enter the Palace alone.
- Forgive me, elder brother.
Move aside!
Move aside!
Has the Minister left?
I told him I was ill and asked him
to enter the Palace alone.
You have made these flowers bloom in this weather.
You have raised them well.
But these flowers will grow better in a garden
rather than a flowerbed.
Why don't you move the flowers to a better place?
She would like your answer by today.
What of it?
Have you made up your mind?
She has arrived.
It would have been preferable if your plan
had been successful.
Then we wouldn't have had
to come all the way here.
It was poorly-planned from
the beginning to the end.
Please forgive me.
I heard that the criminals know where you live.
(Hong In Han - Yi San's younger maternal uncle)
What will you do about that?
If you are implicated, all of us will be in danger.
Everything will be decided when she arrives.
She is here.
- There will be no error this time.
- Yes, Your Majesty.
- What did she say?
- She wants us to help the Minister.
The prince controls the Police Bureau now
and we cannot infiltrate it.
How are we to silence them?
We must make the prince
silence them himself.
What do you mean?
The Police Bureau acts only
under the prince's command.
I will make the prince give them
the command we want.
What is happening with
the criminals you arrested?
They will interrogated
at the Hour of the Ape (3-5pm).
They will have to speak with their own lips
what you think is the truth.
You know what the punishment
is to deceive the King.
If you do not extract a confession from them,
you will not escape severe punishment.
Remember that.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Boost up the number of guards
and make sure the shift changes an hour early.
Yes.
- What is this?
- A decree from the prince to transfer the prisoners.
Come on!
This is not the way to the State Tribunal.
Shut up and follow me!
What? You transferred the prisoners
according to my orders?
I never gave such orders!
I ordered you to send them
to the Interrogation Office!
But the decree had your imperial seal on it...
How... how could this be?
This is my imperial seal!
His Majesty approaches!
- Your Majesty!
- Why is it so quiet here?
What is happening with the interrogation?
Where are all the criminals?
Have they not yet arrived from the Police Bureau?
That...
The criminals have disappeared.

So, that was what happened.
That young Damo is certainly talented.
Her painting at the feast was quite good.
I think so too, Your Highness.
Oh, didn't you say that she drew a painting
on the subject I gave to the artists?
Yes, Your Highness.
I am curious about that painting.
May I see it?
Yes, I will bring it to you right away.
This is it, Your Highness.
Is this... the painting the Damo drew?
Yes, Your Highness.
Do you know that girl's name?
What did she say her name was?
It is Song Yeon, Your Highness.
Sung Song Yeon.
What did you just say?
Did you say Song Yeon?
Yes, Your Highness.
Song Yeon...
That girl... she was Song Yeon!
Where is she now?
Is she here at the Bureau?
Yes.
Episode 8
Where are all the other Damos?
They are doing the laundry.
- Go and bring Song Yeon to my office.
- Song Yeon?
She is not on duty today, and is not here.
- Is that so?
- Yes.
Does anyone know where she lives?
I know where she lives, Sir.
She lives past Gwanggyo.
But why are you looking for her?
What did you just say, Your Highness?
You found Song Yeon?
Do you see this?
She drew this painting!
That Attendant Damo
at the feast was Song Yeon!
Why did I not think she was in the Capital?
We only looked for her far from here!
Your Highness!
I am so foolish.
She was right here and I didn't know!
- I saw her and yet didn't recognize her!
- Yes, Your Highness!
- Are you leaving for work?
- Yes, I'll be back soon.
Uncle, I'm going too.
Going where, you wretched boy!
What trouble are you going to get yourself into?
- It's not that...
- Dae Su!
I'm not getting into trouble.
The military exam is coming up again,
and I wanted to find out more about it.
I heard in the marketplace that there are men
who have passed the exams
who will tutor others for a fee.
They will tutor you and test you.
That's what I wanted to find out.
Did they beat you up too much?
- Are you serious?
- Do I look like I'm joking to you?
Dae Su!
I have to pass this last exam, but I am quite behind.
I may not pass the first time around.
- I'm a bit dumb too.
- I'm so glad you've changed your mind!
Don't worry, Dae Su. Everything will be fine.
I'll help you.
- Let's go.
- Be careful on the road.
Don't worry.
I'll make sure he doesn't get himself in trouble.
- I won't get in trouble!
- Shut up! How can I trust you?
- Help me with the cart!
- You treat me like a slave!
- Song Yeon! Song Yeon!
- Oh, Sir!
Oh good, you're home.
- What brings you here?
- You weren't at the Bureau, so I came to find you!
- Can I ask you a question?
- Yes, My Lord.
Where is Songsadong Village near Daejanggan?
Oh yes.
Take this road straight down.
Thank you.
Anybody there?
Anybody there?
Anybody there?
- Follow me.
- Alright.
- Please wait here.
- Alright.
- Let's sit.
- Yes.
They want me to paint Madam's portrait.
But I'm not allowed to see her face as I'm a man,
so I have to paint it with the screen down!
Can I see her eyes properly?
Can I see her nose properly?
When the Madam comes, help me by looking
at her and explaining it to me.
You always bother me on my day off.
- Song Yeon...!
- Alright, fine.
Madam, before I start, I would like
to send in my Damo to look at your face.
Go ahead.
Her eyebrows are thick, and her eyes are
between the cheekbone and forehead.
- Her nose is small.
- Alright, thanks.
Mix the pigments for me, and you can go.
Yes, Sir.
A small nose?
- Hey!
- Yes?
Come here for a moment.
What?
What is it, My Lady?
These are Maejak Biscuits.
Do you know how to make these?
What?
Yes.
Good.
Can you help me make some?
Alright.
You are skilled in your hands.
They are the same biscuits,
but your colors are nicer and looks more appetizing.
Your talents are wasted being as a servant.
I shall speak with my mother
and use you as Royal Attendant.
No, My Lady. I am an Attendant Damo
here with the Royal Artist from the Bureau.
Is that so? Forgive me.
I thought you were the new servant.
Your Highness! Your Highness!
I have to be on my way now.
Thank you for your help.
- Your Highness! Princess!
- I'm here.
Your Highness!
Where have you been? The Crown Princess
is waiting for you with a physician!
Really?
Her Majesty has sent
a Royal Physician to examine you.
He is waiting for you at the sanctuary.
Please go and be examined.
Please forgive me for worrying you, Mother.
What is this?
This is Maejak Biscuits.
I made them to give to the prince.
You left the Palace to be treated for your anemia.
Why are you doing such things?
Please forgive me.
I just wanted to make something for
my husband to eat like other wives.
I understand how you feel.
But it is much more important for you
to be healed and return to the Palace.
You have to take care of the prince.
Yes, Mother.
- Sir, have you received the book I ordered?
- Just wait a while.
- Excuse me.
- What?
You must have dropped this.
Your Highness!
Why are you here alone?
Did you not meet her?
Please forgive me.
A neighbor told me that
she has been living there for a year.
It is said she lives with a merchant
and a young man her age.
It must be Official Park and Dae Su.
Then they all live together?
Yes, Your Highness.
So they were all together.
But when I got to the house,
there was nobody there.
I came back because
I knew you would be waiting.
- The neighbor didn't know where they went?
- No, they didn't.
This should be enough for you and your men
to go away somewhere.
- You must leave tonight.
- Yes, Sir. Don't worry about us.
- Did you tie it tight?
- Yes.
Hurry up!
Where is the girl?
- She's right there.
- Is she?
You're the wench that lives with Park Dae Su?
- We have to leave the Capital tonight.
- No. I want to bury Dae Su first.
- But...!
- Tell Dae Su.
Tell him if he wants to see
that wench to come here.
Lock her up in the shed!
- The men will be leaving the Capital tonight.
- Alright. You can leave now.
Yes, My Lord.
Tell Her Highness that everything
has been settled.
Alright.
- When is the meeting being held?
- It is in three days.
He will come as well.
This incident has made him worry.
Auntie! Give us two bowls of soup and rice.
And give us some pancakes too!
Do you know how much that will cost?
Forget that order! Give us two bowls...
one bowl of soup and give us two spoon!
Just give us two bowls.
Alright, don't fight!
Just eat. I won't charge you!
- Really?
- We don't need it. Take it away.
Just take the money.
Don't you know that money is your husband?
Don't worry! This is one bowl
separated into two! Just eat.
What use is there for such a husband?
Does money kiss you or embrace you?
You know... you look really tired today.
Do you want to come in and rest a bit?
- Oh my god!
- Are you crazy, woman?
Why... why would I sleep here
when I have my own house?
I... I just thought you looked tired...!
Don't worry about me and go back to work.
All you do is eat and work.
- Oh, and take this.
- I said I don't want it!
Not you!
I'm talking to him.
You know those thugs you were with?
They left this for you.
They said to come and find the owner
before the night curfew.
- What is that?
- This is Song Yeon's.
Song Yeon's?
Wait... Did they...?
Dae Su! Dae Su!
- Calm... calm down!
- Look at this! They have Song Yeon!
- So let's ask around!
- No need for that! I know this is hers!
There must be brushes laying
around everywhere. What if it's a trap?
If they want to get a brush,
they can get it anywhere!
Uncle!
So stop going crazy and
let's find out what happened.
Let's go to the Bureau and the house first.
Go on! Go on!
Uncle, wait!
I'll go in first.
You go around the back.
Why can't we have one normal day?
Excuse me.
Are you... Dal Ho?
My Lord!
Let... let go!
Who are you?
Why are you standing here?
- You must be Dae Su!
- That's right! I'm Park Dae Su!
Who are you?
Did the thugs from Yanghwajin send you?
- Don't you know me?
- What?
Your punches are just as painful
as nine years ago.
Your... Your Highness!
Are... are you crazy? You hit the prince!
Do you have a death wish?
The prince...?
Have you gone mad, Uncle?
That's right, you fool! That's the prince.
He came here to see you and Song Yeon!
He came here to look for us.
It has been a long time, Dae Su.
How have you been?
Are... are you really His Highness?
Your Highness!
Your Highness!
Your Highness! Please forgive me!
I was crazy so i committed a sin against you.
It's alright.
You may stand now.
No, Your Highness!
Please kill me! I have dared to...
Have you forgotten what I told you before?
Would I harm my friend for this trivial thing?
Your... Your Highness!
We looked for you everywhere
for the past nine years.
We didn't think you would be
right under our noses!
I never imagined in my dreams
that you would still remember us!
Not in a million dreams!
I was going to send for you
to come to the Palace.
But I realized people would look at you,
so I decided to come out.
When I found out how close you were,
I just couldn't wait!
Your Highness!
But where is Song Yeon?
I heard she lived together with you?
What is the matter?
Has something happened?
That... that...
Just wait for the curfew bell.
After that, you can do whatever you want.
Did you just say that there was a Minister
involved in the theft of the tributes?
Who is that man?
I... I don't know that.
It's all my fault, Your Highness!
All of the trouble you had with the Ambassador,
and now this with Song Yeon...
It is all because I stole
the white cotton with them!
Where is their headquarters?
It is at Yanghwajin.
Go and find out how many police
are available now.
- Your Highness, you mean...?
- I will arrest them with the help of the Police Bureau!
No, Your Highness, you must not do so!
If you do, your presence outside
the Palace will be known.
If you use the Police Bureau,
you may never find the mastermind!
Dae Su cannot rescue Song Yeon by himself!
They are men who have broken the laws
and stolen the white cotton tributes!
Are you saying I should do nothing?
- Your Highness!
- Your Highness!
- Did they say before the curfew?
- Yes.
It is already late.
We must hurry!
I cannot do that, Your Highness!
His Majesty's orders are needed
to dispatch the police!
Even though you are the prince,
we cannot obey without His Majesty's approval!
- And it is so late...!
- I said it is an emergency!
I will obtain His Majesty's orders for you tomorrow.
So give me your soldiers now!
- No, Your Highness!
- You fool! Do you dare to disobey me?
Please understand my predicament!
I need at least the Minister's approval!
- I do not have the authority to dispatch them!
- I am asking you because the Minister isn't here!
In his absence, is it not you that is responsible?
Yes, Your Highness, but I cannot obey your orders!
You wretch!
Do you wish to die?
Your Highness...!
Dispatch the soldiers immediately!
It doesn't look like Dae Su is coming.
I thought he valued her,
but he must value his life more.
I'm leaving first, so take care of her.
Stay still, you wench!
Let go of her, you filthy bastard!
- Song Yeon!
- Dae Su!
Don't worry, Song Yeon.
- You're here?
- That's right. I'm here.
- Now let her go.
- Seize him!
Yes.
No, Dae Su! No!
- You have me, now let her go!
- No. I promised them they could have her.
Take him outside!
Song Yeon! Song Yeon!
Dae Su! Dae Su!
- Bury him!
- Let me go! Let me go!
- No! Let her go!
- Bury him.
Bury him completely!
Hurry up!
What's that sound?
- It's the police!
- Let's go!
These are the thieves that stole the tributes!
Arrest all of them!
This is bad!
The police are here!
Let's run!
What... what about her?
Dae Su!
Take him out!
Your Highness!
- Are you alright?
- Yes, Your Highness.
Song Yeon...
Where is Song Yeon?
She is in that shed there.
There should have been a girl in the shed.
Did you see her?
There was no one there when we got there.
- She must be somewhere. Find her!
- Yes, Your Highness!
Your Highness!
Your Highness!
Where is Song Yeon?
We cannot find her.
Song... Song Yeon!
Song Yeon!
Your Highness...
Get up, you wench!
Hurry up! Get up!
What did you just say?
Didn't you tell me they had
already left the Capital?
Forgive me, Your Excellency!
I didn't know this was going to happen!
The prince?
Why did they have to get
caught by the prince?
How.. how could this have happened?
Send a message to the Sixth Secretary
and ask him for a meeting!
Let me go!
Don't be so rough!
Your Highness!
What happened?
Have they found Song Yeon?
This is torn fabric from a skirt.
They found it in the woods.
A few of the men are missing.
They must have taken Song Yeon.
You're making me dizzy!
Sit down and wait patiently!
How can I sit at a time like this!
Your Highness!
Your Highness!
Have you found Song Yeon?
Forgive me.
Why can't you find her?
What are all the police doing?
How could that be?
Could she...?
No, I'm sure it's not.
The men must have taken her with them.
She is alive.
I'm sure she's alive.
Forgive me.
If only I had been a little faster...
No, Your Highness!
It's all my fault!
Your Highness...!
Your Highness, Your Highness!
Bad news.
You must return to the Palace immediately.
I can't do that!
We haven't found Song Yeon yet!
Royal Eunuchs are waiting
for you at the Police Bureau.
His Majesty has ordered you
to return immediately.
He must have found out about this.
You may go back now.
Yes, Your Highness.
Your Highness, you must leave now.
It seems that His Majesty is very angry.
Your Highness, if you delay any longer...
- ... the consequences...
- I know.
Your Highness, I'm sure Song Yeon is safe.
Please don't worry and return to the Palace.
You know her.
You know she's tough and resilient.
She will foil their plans
and escape their clutches.
She'll return.
I'll find her.
Please return to the Palace, Your Highness.
Dae Su...
You made a promise to us.
You said you would stay safe
until we came to you.
If Song Yeon found out that you were
in trouble because of her,
she would be devastated.
So you must go back for her.
Go back to the Palace and keep yourself safe.
I will go back and do whatever I can
to bring Song Yeon back.
What? Yes...
Thank you!
Stay here.
- What?
- Stay here and help them find Song Yeon.
But Your Highness, if I stay here,
what about you?
- Who will be with you...?
- I beg you. Please stay here.
Your Highness! I am Attendant Kim.
Enter.
So, what did they say?
The prince left the Palace secretly and dispatched
the police bureau! The Palace is in chaos!
All the Ministers have returned to the Palace
to discuss this incident!
Prepare the palanquin.
I will return to the Palace.
But Your Highness...!
You are still unwell...!
The prince will go through great trouble
because of this. How can I stay here?
Prepare the palanquin!
- Is His Majesty inside?
- He has ordered not to let anyone enter.
Please hear our plea, Your Majesty!
Announce me to His Majesty.
- But...
- Announce me!
This has never happened before!
The Prince not only left the Palace in secret,
but he dispatched the police bureau
for his private affairs!
Not only that, he threatened an official with
his sword and forced him to disobey the law!
This is a great travesty!
How could he do such a thing?
What is the Police Bureau?
They are soldiers used for the King's bidding!
Despite his lack of authority, the Prince used his status
to threaten these men and to force them to do his bidding!
You must not allow this to go unpunished!
Please hear our plea, Your Majesty!
Please hear our plea, Your Majesty!
Please hear our plea, Your Majesty!
- The prince begs your audience.
- Let him enter.
I gave orders for you to wait.
What are you doing here?
I came to tell you something, Your Majesty.
What is it?
Did you come to explain your foolish behavior?
- No.
- No?
Your Majesty, I have come to request
for your authorisation to investigate the
people behind the thugs arrested yesterday.
What did you say?
Thugs?
The men I arrested yesterday were men who
were involved in the theft of the white cotton.
I have since found out that
Government Ministers who oppose me
gave them the orders to steal the tributes.
Are you saying that it was planned
by Ministers who opposed you?
Why are you silent?
Do you take responsibility for your words?
I will show you that those words are true.
Please give me your authority
so that all facts may be confirmed!
Have you been well, Your Majesty?
Yes, I have been well.
But what has happened?
I heard from the physician
that you were still unwell.
Forgive me, Your Majesty.
Princess Hyo Eui - Jeong Jo's wife
When I was at home, I heard that
the Prince was in trouble.
I know how you are feeling.
You must have been so shocked.
I was just about to go to see His Majesty
and to ask him to be merciful.
Your Majesty...!
Why have you gotten so thin?
I will order some tonics to be made for you.
Send a message to the physician.
I wish to see him.
Yes, Your Majesty.
I will try my best to help the prince.
Please don't worry and take care of yourself.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Do you truly believe that
someone planned all this to frame you?
Yes, I'm afraid so, Your Majesty.
Go ahead.
I will give you all authority
as you have requested.
Go and find those who
have plotted against you.
If what you say is true and there are
government ministers behind them,
I will not forgive them.
You will have to reveal the whole truth
without any error. Do you understand?
Yes, I understand, Your Majesty.
Come out! Come out, you bastard!
Let me go!
I know you're that bastard's friend.
He must sent you a message. Tell me!
Where is he?
Tell me! Tell me!
My Lord!
What did you find out?
I don't think they went to the port.
What about you?
They're fugitives now and won't come out.
No one has seen them.
That's strange. If they are with Song Yeon,
someone should have seen them.
Did they bury her or sell her off somewhere?
Uncle, how can you say that!
I... I'm worried too.
From now on, no one can speak to the
criminals without His Highness' approval.
The Prince will be interrogating
the criminals himself tomorrow.
All the soldiers and police
involved in this investigation
must act only under His Highness' direction.
- Do you understand?
- Yes, Sir!
I have placed my imperial seal upon this scroll.
Use it when you need to.
Your Highness, perhaps you
should give someone else the responsibility.
I should be with you at all times.
- What if something happens to you...?
- Don't worry about me.
Finding Song Yeon is a more urgent matter.
Give me two more yang!
Look at her!
She's such a pretty girl!
Alright then.
I'll give you one and a half yang.
Let me go!
Please let me go!
- Please don't do this!
- Stay here quietly!
Please open this door!
Please let me out!
- Please let me out!
- It's no use.
Who... who are you?
Where... where is this place?
Where are we?
This is a brothel.
- Wh.. what?
- Are you deaf?
You've been sold as a prostitute.
How sick is Song Yeon?
She hasn't been at work in two days!
I don't know.
I'm going to visit her today.
That's no good.
Maybe I made her work too hard.
Come here for a moment!
- Yes, Sir!
- Do you call this a painting?
It is so crude!
There is no precision!
And your colors are so off!
- Forgive me, Sir.
- Take it back and do it again!
Yes, Sir.
How did such a famous artist such
as Artist Lee bring forth such a son!
He is so incompetent!
It is said that the disappointment
of his family is great.
Sir! Sir Yi Chun!
Why are you here?
What do you mean?
I've come to collect the erotica.
You've never missed a deadline before,
but you didn't contact us.
Come with me.
- The Bureau was busy, so I couldn't do much.
- That's alright.
Oh my...!
What a work of art!
Do you like it? I tried a different method
by emphasizing the man.
The technique and the colors...!
You are truly a genius!
You will be a legend in the world of erotica!
A legend?
How flattering...
I have met many artists in my time,
but you are the best I have ever worked with.
I would like to invite you to my house one day
and watch you draw a painting!
Now you're embarrassing me!
This one's for free.
Thank you!
I need it back.
Move aside!
Move aside!
How sick are you?
The physician tells me
my diabetes has worsened.
Why did you let that happen?
The Princess is looking for you,
but we have no choice.
- I will enter the Palace alone.
- Forgive me, elder brother.
Move aside!
Move aside!
Has the Minister left?
I told him I was ill and asked him
to enter the Palace alone.
You have made these flowers bloom in this weather.
You have raised them well.
But these flowers will grow better in a garden
rather than a flowerbed.
Why don't you move the flowers to a better place?
She would like your answer by today.
What of it?
Have you made up your mind?
She has arrived.
It would have been preferable if your plan
had been successful.
Then we wouldn't have had
to come all the way here.
It was poorly-planned from
the beginning to the end.
Please forgive me.
I heard that the criminals know where you live.
(Hong In Han - Yi San's younger maternal uncle)
What will you do about that?
If you are implicated, all of us will be in danger.
Everything will be decided when she arrives.
She is here.
- There will be no error this time.
- Yes, Your Majesty.
- What did she say?
- She wants us to help the Minister.
The prince controls the Police Bureau now
and we cannot infiltrate it.
How are we to silence them?
We must make the prince
silence them himself.
What do you mean?
The Police Bureau acts only
under the prince's command.
I will make the prince give them
the command we want.
What is happening with
the criminals you arrested?
They will interrogated
at the Hour of the Ape (3-5pm).
They will have to speak with their own lips
what you think is the truth.
You know what the punishment
is to deceive the King.
If you do not extract a confession from them,
you will not escape severe punishment.
Remember that.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Boost up the number of guards
and make sure the shift changes an hour early.
Yes.
- What is this?
- A decree from the prince to transfer the prisoners.
Come on!
This is not the way to the State Tribunal.
Shut up and follow me!
What? You transferred the prisoners
according to my orders?
I never gave such orders!
I ordered you to send them
to the Interrogation Office!
But the decree had your imperial seal on it...
How... how could this be?
This is my imperial seal!
His Majesty approaches!
- Your Majesty!
- Why is it so quiet here?
What is happening with the interrogation?
Where are all the criminals?
Have they not yet arrived from the Police Bureau?
That...
The criminals have disappeared.
