Episode 6
I promise...
I will rip out that evil tongue of yours.
How could you say such an atrocious thing to a servant of heaven?
Do you think I'm scared of the kind of heaven served by thugs like you?
What should we do Prime Minister? If Prince Wolgang goes, we must go too!
We still have the control of the army.
The King won't be able to do anything hastily.
Is the Prince okay?
Yes, Uncle.
I heard you were there last night.
Yes.
Let me through.
Please leave.
Let me pass.
The King has ordered me to not let anyone through.
I always admired your abilities, yet I was always doubtful.
Doubtful of whether you're capable of handling important matters.
I always felt uncomfortable about something every time I thought about that.
That stubbornness of yours.
You must learn how to bend and curve if you want to last long.
But you're way too stubborn!
If you don't bend, you will end up breaking into two.
Remember that!
I will never bend myself.
If I ever have to be shattered for a righteous cause...
I shall do so gladly.
How could you be so loyal to the King with such a righteous mindset?
Do you actually have an appetite in a situation like this?
Are you telling me to be careful because someone might poison my food?
Not that...
I have to eat well especially in hard times like now.
And no one will be able to poison me!
The whole kingdom's attention is on me right now.
Unless they're stupid.
At least you can pretend to be worried...
Nothing will change even if I pretend to be worried.
I haven't eaten a meal at the palace in a while! It's delicious!
Do you...
You should go eat.
Do you know how this palace works?
This palace works? It doesn't seem like it does anything.
The Prince didn't come home last night.
So the Prince slept somewhere else last night?
You're still a prude even after your death!
This punk! He should sleep at home!
How dare he sleep somewhere else?
Hey, who says he has to sleep at his home every night?
My Prince is all grown up.
He needs to go out and meet many women to find a suitable wife!
I'm all for his staying out!
Me too.
Get anything that looks suspicious!
Yes, sir!
What are they doing?
Seriously... What if something happened to the Prince?
Something doesn't feel right. Very ominous.
He's still not out yet?
I hope it's not something serious...
Do you know something? Tell us!
Come to your senses!
She's a human! She can't hear you.
Right, I got confused...
He's in captivity at the palace.
See? She hears you.
What?
Did you just talk to us? Can you see us?
Then who else is here?
What should I do? Just go in?
No... I can't just go in and take it...
What? What is it?
Tell us now!
Why is Rin locked up in the palace?
Damn it! I don't know either!
I'm worried too.
I found it!
What should we do?
Everything must be okay. Everything will be okay!
Will everything be okay?
Yes, everything will be okay. He probably doesn't have any ritual tools!
We've found the ritual tools used for the curse. Let the King know!
Yes, sir!
What? What did you say?
What did you just say?
Prince Wolgang used a curse... Everyone is in panic, my Lady!
You can't go!
You'll be in great trouble if your father finds out!
- Get out of my way. - My Lady!
Now!
I must see it with my own eyes.
Everyone who's implicated in cursing the King has lost his life.
Step aside! Get out of my way!
What's your relation to the owner of this house?
I don't need to tell you. Step aside.
Oh no... They're going to arrest every acquaintance of the Prince.
The King has ordered to arrest every acquaintance of Prince Wolgang.
So we must follow the Royal Order. Arrest her!
My Lady!
I got the wrong house!
It's not this house! It's that one!
Let's go! Then...
Quickly...
So what happens then? What happens if he's implicated?
Dried Turnip may be mean, but he wouldn't use a curse on anyone!
That's right.
But how do you know the Prince?
I need to get something... My bracelet...
His life is in question right now! He's in mortal danger!
But you showed up just to find that meager bracelet?
It's not just a meager bracelet.
I don't feel comfortable to be talking about this right now either...
So I'm willing to help if I can...
And how exactly will you be able to help the Prince?
You should be able to buy ten of your damn bracelets with this.
So do not show up in front of the Prince ever again.
That's a harsh thing to say!
Because you helped me just now
harsh words are the only things I'll lash out on you for now.
Get out of my way.
My Lady!
Stop right there!
Who do you think you're stopping? Go away!
- So you found these? - Yes, my King.
They're from the Prince's residence.
This is my horoscope information!
These were certainly used to curse you.
I shall not let him live!
This punk... Is anyone out there?
Are you in love with me?
Why do you keep following me around?
I was ordered to do so.
Can you give me some alone time? So I can do something called 'Thinking.'
I was ordered by the King to never leave your side
so you can't think or do impure things.
Do you know what you are right now?
A duckling on a pond.
It's hilarious to see you following around your mama with your golden sword.
Keep following, then.
What's going on? What are they doing here?
They've found the evidence of your cursing the King.
Your jokes are a bit too much.
The entire royal court is arguing about what should happen to you.
Cursing the King?
You were there too. I was only remembering my mother!
A cursing ritual tool was found there.
No way!
It's a conspiracy! Someone's trying to frame me!
More evidence of cursing was found at your residence.
These are from your residence.
I didn't know you're into dark magic too.
It seems like you believe that I did curse the King.
And you're taking good care of these.
Even if you did curse the King, it wouldn't have done any harm to him.
As you said, it's only some dark magic.
What I can't forgive is that you had the intention to harm the King.
That intention to harm the King no matter what it takes...
You'll have to face the consequences for having such intention.
Are you so certain about everything in your life?
Do you ever think about the fact that there might be something more than you believe?
Things that are invisible...
Those might be the truth.
I only believe what I can see.
And in my opinion, there's nothing invisible about you.
You may leave.
I don't need you, as I have so many bodyguards now.
Someday...
Your coldness will cause your trouble.
I'll make it happen today!
If you don't fall for me, you're not a real man!
Sir...
I need to talk to you. About something very important.
So what I need to say is...
So... I...
So...
- For you... - So what?
So what do you want?
You startled me!
I might be dead before you say anything!
What are you doing here?
Don't mind me.
I'm very curious to know what you're about to say.
What is it?
I need a kitchen knife! Satisfied?
Kitchen knife?
It's certain.
You're wearing makeup and all!
It's so obvious that you gussied up to come here and ask for a kitchen knife!
That dude... Has he lost his mind?
None of your business!
Please make me a sturdy knife, sir.
Could that guy be useful for anything?
I make good kitchen knives too!
I don't even like things like this!
- Do Ha. - Yes.
I've been holding in my rage forever...
Don't hold it in. It'll harm you.
Yes, so let me tell you this.
If you eat food, you pay for it. If you get a room here, you pay for it.
That's how this town works.
So you should pay now.
Pay what?
You really have no idea?
Then what is this ring?
This isn't mine...
It's a long story. The one that gives me headaches.
This kind of thing is so uncomfortable anyway! I have no use for it!
This thing that you have no use for can provide enough room and board for 100 days!
Really? This small thing?
Can I really stay here for 100 days with this?
I'm telling you, yes!
Do we have a deal?
What a dilemma.
I can't! I must return it to the owner.
Hey! Then go earn some money!
Then pay for your room with that money!
Why are you getting angry at me?
How am I getting angry at you?
What do you want?
I'm here to look for my sister.
I need a place to stay to find her.
I need money to get a place to stay.
And I need to work to get money.
I guess I'll have to work instead of finding my sister.
Money?
I just made money!
- How much is this? - Where is my money?
This...
Hey!
You little thief!
- Thief? - Hey...
How come the money that should be on my belt is in your hand?
And I'm missing a few coins.
Where are you hiding them?
Hiding what?
Either you give back what you stole from me...
Or give me that ring! You ***!
This thief is killing an innocent citizen!
I'm not a thief! Why do you keep calling me that?
Let go of me. Why are you butting in?
Thank God you're here, my Lord. This thief stole...
I said I'm not a thief!
She needs to be arrested, my Lord!
She hurled me to the ground after stealing my money!
I'll be sure to get my money back and more!
You'll come to your senses once you're in jail!
You're the one who ought to be arrested.
What do you mean, my Lord?
They're counterfeit.
Nonsense! They're real!
They're not fake... I said they're real!
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
You should be careful in the future.
What is this?
Put it on where it hurts.
It's okay. I'm fine.
I'm giving it to you for free.
Take care.
Just a moment, sir.
You can notice when others are hurt, yet why can't you notice when you're hurt?
Things like this happen to me all the time.
That's enough. Goodbye.
By the way, that Dried Turnip...
No, Prince Wolgang... What will happen to him?
He'll pay his price if he's found guilty.
Price for being guilty, price to get a room...
Price, price...
It's giving me a headache!
Thank you.
We must do something.
We'll lose to the King at this rate.
The King's behavior has been quite unpredictable lately...
He acts as if he's overcome by a ghost.
Some speak of strange cries coming from his chamber.
Are we really talking about this?
Ghost? Impossible!
There's no such thing as ghost in this kingdom!
Father!
Get the assassin!
How could you be so reckless?
You already framed Prince Wolgang. Now you try to assassinate him?
Shut up! I know nothing about it.
This isn't a problem that you can just ignore like that, my King!
I didn't order it! I didn't!
My King!
What is it?
Prince Wolgang has disappeared.
Say it again.
Prince Wolgang has disappeared.
You still don't get it? Prime Minister?
Wolgang set up the whole thing!
He ran away after diverting people's attention!
He probably thought that he'll be found guilty and thus would not survive!
That's probably why he ran away!
I'm sorry.
You've neglected your duty.
You're fired, effective immediately.
- Remove your hands! - I can't.
Good heavens!
This is how you come back after going out there to make money?
Now you're making me feel like I'm a terrible person!
I just fell. I stumble a lot.
Nonsense! Someone hit you.
I don't like seeing you beaten up!
Did you put on some medicine?
I did.
How upsetting!
What should I cook today?
What's wrong with her?
She's happy that she got a new kitchen knife from the blacksmith!
What should I cook today?
This knife can cut anything!
You haven't returned that yet.
Right!
Find Prince Wolgang!
The goods that will be shown today are known for their rarity even in China.
If you do anything thoughtless that might ruin the show...
I'll make sure you spend the rest of your life moving boxes in the basement.
- Understood? - Yes, ma'am.
Excuse me.
What is it?
I'm here to find someone...
There's a guest for you, ma'am.
Follow me.
I need some swordsmen.
I also need a ship to China.
So you're smuggling someone out. That's very risky.
I'll give you anything you want.
Do you really mean that?
Then I want the exclusive right to sell medical herbs in the capital...
including the ones for local clinics.
Why are you asking me that? I have no power...
The Prime Minister is in charge of local clinics.
So I heard you're well connected with the clinics and other private doctors.
The clinics are for the poor.
but the herbs from China are very expensive...
Just think about one thing.
Are you with the people? Or the Prince?
Just hold the item and go on stage per order.
- Got it? - Yes, ma'am.
I'm here to look for...
- I'm not here... - Silence!
Isn't that the girl who embarrassed us before?
You're right! I'm still mad that I didn't get my revenge!
Then let's do it right now.
Excuse me!
Go out there with this.
I'm not here for this. I'm here to look for a person...
You can look for the person after!
This item is a work of one of the most famous calligraphers of Tang Dynasty.
Just a moment...
[Your pride is a threepence!]
It's my fault. There has been a mistake.
I beg your pardon.
There's no need. It was a nice comic relief!
As you can all see, don't you think a threepence is a bit too cheap for her?
You all saw how she hurled down Prince Wolgang before.
Her only shortfall is that she can't read
so she doesn't even know she's worth a threepence!
But that can be charming in its own way. That shouldn't be too much trouble.
That's right!
So maybe a threepence is a bit too low. Let's start at one bronze coin!
We can start at ten bronze coins if you take off your tattered clothes!
Shall we start at ten coins then?
Let go of my hair!
What are you doing? Call the police right now!
I'll make sure that she pays for her insolence this time!
Stop, both of you!
What do you think you're doing?
You're not even worthy of these three pence.
Pick them up.
You still can't tell?
Your measly pride isn't even worth three pence.
So pick them up!
If my pride is worth less than three pence...
For all of you *** here...
Two pence are even too generous.
What are you doing? Get her!
Even ten of these rings can't buy my sister's bracelet.
Is anyone out there?
Is anyone out there?
Do you think he came this way?
His quarters were close to the north gate of the palace.
That means this is the only mountain where he can hide.
Let's find him!
Be quiet!
All I can hear are your voices!
Is anyone out there?
Is anyone out there?
Is anyone out there?
Is anyone out there...
Eunuch Song...
My Prince!
Wait, he acknowledges us now that he needs our help!
That's not important right now! We must save him!
Anything like a rope?
Go save him.
- Me? - Then who else?
Damn it!
My Prince!
My Prince...
Grab my hand, my Prince!
Grab my hand!
My Prince!
I'll bring someone here. Please hang in there.
Hurry up!
You'll come back, right?
Of course.
- You have to protect him, okay? - Okay.
Come back quickly!
Excuse me! Hello!
Please save my Prince...
Can you hear me? Wait!
Please help me!
Can't you hear me? Hello!
Can anyone hear me?
- This, and that... - Can you see me?
Can't you hear me?
What can I do?
You still can't tell?
Your measly pride isn't even worth three pence.
My Prince...
You...
Is anyone out there?
I can't help but see them!
Did you really lie to me even though you can see ghosts?
My existence itself is a burden to the King.
What should I do?
Live as if you're dead.
You're the only one who can help!
Someone's here!
You're here too?
I never imagined I'd be this glad to see you!
Down there!
Dried Turnip...
This way! I see a torch!
Quickly!
I think we'll be caught.
Go distract them!
How can I?
That way! Follow me!
Grab this, okay?
Do you think you can manage?
Are you okay, my Prince? Are you hurt?
Hang in there!
I'm going to pull. One, two, three!
Are you okay? Should I come down?
Do you want to bring the soldiers here by screaming like that?
I'm sorry. I was just worried...
It's fine. Just make sure the rope is tight.
Do it tighter! More!
Hey! You look very strong!
Why can't you tie it very tight?
If you keep bothering me, I'll loosen it up!
What a temper!
Is it done?
Grab it.
Pull!
Pull!
Just a bit more!
You're out!
I'm strong enough to save a life! A threepence was too low, right?
What is she talking about? Are you okay, my Prince?
He's cut by a sword. Do you think he's okay?
Doesn't he need medicine?
I'm coming with you!
This way!
This way!
We'll distract them. Hide yourselves.
- Go with the Prince. - Please take care of my Prince.
Hurry!
Be careful!
No one can hear them or touch them. What are they going to do?
I'm fine. You can go.
Where are you going to go?
I'm going home.
Are you crazy? There are soldiers everywhere!
You should either hide somewhere or ask an acquaintance to help you.
An acquaintance?
Does your lot even discriminate other people's concern for you by class?
Are lower class people like me not allowed to be concerned about you?
When a person means well...
I have no one.
I have no acquaintance.
I have nowhere to go, and no one to help me.
No one.
Dohwadang is the only place I want to rest at.
Hey!
I heard a sexy night angel lives here. Is that just a rumor?
Are you spreading rumors to help your business?
Damn it...
How can we go there?
Do you really live here?
I do live here. But there's just one small problem.
Are you the night angel?
Excellent!
She's doing it again! Hey!
Are you going to sleep?
Are you hungry?
Do you need anything?
Nothing.
I'm going to sleep. I'm not hungry.
I don't need anything!
I just want to revel in this horrendous situation.
So please just leave me alone.
It seems like you're hurt. Put this on before you sleep.
Then I shall take off my clothes.
This works very well! I got it from someone you know...
Who?
Never mind.
Who is it?
Never mind.
Who is it?
Tell me!
The guy who arrested you...
Hey! What a waste...
Get out. I said get out!
What's the matter?
I will catch Prince Wolgang!
Please find out who sent the assassin to Prince Wolgang.
If you stay with us, my family will be in danger!
Please go.
You must find him before everyone else. Okay?
Yes, my King.
Please don't make any sound and stay quiet.
I stayed quiet so far to survive.
But if I am to die either way, I'll die after making some noise.
Call the royal doctor. Now!
It's strange. It doesn't hurt.
