"Jung Yi, the Goddess of Fire" "Episode 28" "At Bunwon..." "It seems a big change is coming." "Yes?" "The Chief will be replaced." "Chief Lee..." "Are you saying he is leaving?" "As a new Chief..." "What do you think about yourself?" "His Majesty has asked me to find out about your health." "Won't that mean he has you in mind?" "Your Highness..." "I am already a sinner who's been dishonorably removed from Bunwon." "So, it would be absolutely absurd." "During his reign as the Bunwon Chief, he used his authority for money and power," "I'm sure you know." "What if the new Chief..." "is a Lee Kang Cheon #2?" "We need someone who will not be shaken by temptations of any kind." "Your Highness..." "That I'll... not be shaken by any temptation, is that what you believe?" "Did I not assess your character correctly?" "Your Highness..." "As I see it," "The biggest problem of Bunwon today, is that for the new Chief's position, there is no one qualified." "Chief Lee's son, Royal Ceramist Lee Yook Do, because all opportunities were focused on him, the other ceramists' morale have fallen to the ground, nor have they been able to grow." "If I take charge of Bunwon," "I'll promote the growth of talents." "Have you decided?" "An opportunity like this," "I never thought it would come again." "My humble life, which I don't know when it will end..." "If it can be used for His Majesty, any higher happiness and glory than this, where would there be?" "I'll have to let His Majesty know immediately." "Listen, Royal Ceramist Lee..." "Although you were exonerated from treason, your dignity as a Royal Ceramist and your responsibilities, which you abdicated on your own, the sins of that cannot be considered lightly." "Therefore," "I relieve you of your duties as a Royal Ceramist." "Lee Kang Cheon." "You, too..." "For your responsibility in this incident, as I will be strict on this matter, remove yourself from the Chief position." "Moon Sa Seung, come forward." "I appoint you as a High Official Rank, the Chief." "Therefore, with dignified responsibility, and loyal dedication, lead Bunwon" "All of my strength..." "I'll give it all, Your Majesty!" "Was it Yoo Jung that she was called?" "I'm talking about the menial worker, who attended this competition." "Yes." "Since she has extraordinary talent and has made a huge contribution, promote her to the position of ceramist, so that she can begin a new life." "I will honor the Royal Order." "What?" "The Chief has been replaced?" "Yes, Your Highness." "His Majesty himself fired Lee Kang Cheon." "And, to fill that position, appointed Moon Sa Seung, they said." "Moon Sa Seung?" "What kind of person is he?" "Is he someone who can come over to our side?" "In the past, when he was the Chief, he had been removed because he didn't have any supporter." "So, we should be able to buy him." "Please call for that man, Moon Sa Seung." "I want to see him directly." "Yes, Your Highness." "If you call for him... he would be so grateful that he'll probably run over here barefooted." "Everyone..." "The person who will lead Bunwon..." "I'm Bunwon Chief, Moon Sa Seung." "Congratulations to you, Bunwon Chief!" "Please provide good leadership to us." "As Bunwon Chief," "I'll adhere to the fundamentals and principles." "I'll be clear on award and punishment." "And, for any person who has talent..." "I'll give them opportunities." "Also," "Bunwon's ceramics." "Ceramics of the King's Court!" "I'll absolutely make sure not to let them go out, so that all your hard work," "I'll see to it that it was not done in vain." "You all, with self-esteem, and work to your satisfaction." "Isn't that what the Bunwon Chief is supposed to do?" "Let's all work together like we mean it!" "Because of me, even you ended up having to go through this treatment..." "I really don't have a ground to stand on." "Today's humiliation..." "I'll never forget it." "All these were mine and yours..." "Yook Do..." "Bunwon Chief's power comes from these ceramics." "Securing the key for this place is where it starts." "Yook Do..." "Although I have to turn it over to Moon Sa Seung, and not to you, but..." "Someday, it's the key you'll have to take back." "Yoo Jung, come forward." "Everyone, His Majesty spoke highly of menial worker Yoo Jung's talent, praised her accomplishments in winning this competition, and gave a Royal Order to promote her to ceramist." "In our Bunwon..." "As this is the first ever moment, a woman ceramist is being born, let's all congratulate her together!" "Jung..." "Are you saying she is really going to be the ce-ceramist?" "Congratulations Jung!" "Congratulations!" "Bunwon Chief?" "When will Jung start wearing the ceramist's uniform?" "According to Bunwon tradition, we need a proper ceramist ordination ceremony!" "Sure!" "Let's do that." "You've been reciting it day and night, and it's finally come true." "Congratulations!" "I knew you were going to be the ceramist." "The blood of Yoo Eul Dam, where else would it go?" " Thank you." " Jung." "I really congratulate you!" "Now, can we not call her Jung?" "Come on, not you guys..." "Just call me Jung." "Just how, how can we do that?" "Madam ceramist?" "I said, don't!" "Alright..." "Bunwon ceramists and the supporting cast, errand workers' list and their duties, and including the ledger of Bunwon's merchants." "I have prepared them all." "And this is the key of the Bunwon Ceramics Storage, and the document with the inventory of items in it." "Finally, this is" "Bunwon Chief's stamp." "Do you blame and loathe Jung?" "Consider everything as your inborn burden, and please don't think of it as anything else." "If it weren't for Jung Yi, your son, Yook Do, would be dead by now, don't you think?" "Stop, in this utterly ruined state?" "Why don't you just tell me to die?" "In my current situation, how would I be able to have other thoughts?" "'How am I going to live from now on?" "'" "'What should I do with my son, who almost died, but managed to survive?" "'" "I'm already more than sufficiently preoccupied with those thoughts." "Jung!" "You've finally done it!" "You made my wish come true." "I was worried that you might be upset because of me." "Why would I be?" "I saw you just leave." "My mind was busy fetching this." "There were clothes for a female ceramist?" "To be honest, I had this prepared so that I wouldn't lose my dream." "Whenever I was troubled in Bunwon, I would take this out and look at it, thinking, 'Someday I'll be able to wear this."" "I sustained myself with such hope." "I'm sorry." "You should've been the first one to become a ceramist." "Don't say such a thing." "Wouldn't you be the one to start?" "Thanks to you, all woman assistants and errand workers in Bunwon, finally have something called hope." "I feel like I have a lot (of responsibility) on my shoulders." "Let's see." "I hope it fits you well." "If Yeon Ok Unni were here, how happy would she have been..." "Today, of all days," "I miss Yeon Ok Unni even more." "Go change into it." "I'm going first to get things ready." "It's the moment in which you become Joseon's first female ceramist." "We should make the ceremony perfect." "Joseon's first female ceramist." "You being in the Chief's office." "I feel like this is a dream." "Take a good look." "Do you know what this is?" "It's the first thing on which I stamped the official seal as Chief." "It's a certificate of appointment..." "Appointing you, Jung Yi, as a ceramist." "Teacher..." "Until now, you've worked so hard." "When you came to me after your father died, when you habitually said 'ceramist,' 'ceramist,'" "I scolded you a lot for having a vain dream." "But really, you've made your dream come true." "I'm so proud of you." "Teacher." "Am I really becoming a ceramist?" "You can't believe it either?" "It suits you well, Jung." "I still feel awkward, Your Highness." "Now that you've become a ceramist, I'm going to give you a present." "Follow me." "This place is the studio you'll be using from now on." "Pardon?" "No, I don't need it." "I heard this studio is the one your father Royal Ceramist Yoo used to work in." "This is where my father used to work?" "I think I'm going to be able to make ceramics, feeling less lonely and as if my father were with me." "All the grudge, sadness and pain that filled your heart..." "I know all that, don't I?" "I wanted to release you from such pain, even just a little." "Thank you." "Thank you, Your Highness." "I hope the porcelains you make here will hold great warmth." "I clearly still have things I must do as Royal Ceramist Yoo Eul Dam's daughter." "However, at least when I'm in this studio," "I'm going to forget everything." "And, as Ceramist Yoo Jung," "I'm only going to think about porcelains." "I feel bad always being on the receiving end." "Is that how you really feel?" "You really don't know what you've given me?" "When everyone in the world said a woman couldn't become a ceramist, what did you do?" "You've come all the way this far with your amazing willpower." "Seeing you like that," "I, too, am able to aim high." "A country where domestically, all people are at peace." "And, a country who stands firm against all surrounding nations..." "I want to make ours to be such a strong nation." "Your Highness." "I'm neither the eldest nor the legitimate son." "And, I can't even hope for an official approval to be the crown prince, from Ming." "But, how I achieve my will, despite all that," "I want you to stay by me and witness it." "Here and now, 7th of October," "Saongwon Bunwon Chief Moon Sa Seung hereby appoint" "Bunwon's menial worker Yoo Jung..." "Father!" "You're proud of your daughter, aren't you?" "Yoo Jung." "Do you swear that in undertaking the full responsibility of a ceramist, with the sole objective of making good porcelains, that you'll do everything you can?" "I swear." "I'm going to be humble before the earth." "I'm going to be reverent before the water." "And, I'm going to be patient before the fire." "As Joseon's first female ceramist," "I'm going to devote myself more, so that I won't be ashamed." "The dream you had." "That is mine, now." "My dream is mine." "How would it become yours?" "Honored Father." "Please allow me a chance as well." "What are you talking about, in this sudden visit?" "You clearly said that you would consider Gwang Hae, Shin Seong and me equally for the position of crown prince." "However, no matter how much I think about it, I don't find it fair." "What is so unfair?" "Shin Seong has Lady In Bin and Gwang Hae has a clear position as Saongwon Bunwon's second official." "However, what do I have?" "What can I do when the ministers are saying they feel insecure about having you take a position?" "'A position makes a person.'" "Bunwon's head official seat is empty." "I will take charge of that position and lead Bunwon as best as I can." "Please allow me." "I already put Gwang Hae in charge of Bunwon." "Honored Father." "How can you mistreat me, the eldest son, like this?" "If you want to take an important position, prove to me what you can do." "What Gwang Hae can do, I can do as well." "Please believe in me." "A while ago, I told Gwang Hae to take a look at the southern regions." "Can you do that as well?" "I'll take a look in detail and report what I see to you." "Father." "We can't just sit here and do nothing." "I'm going to Bunwon tomorrow." "Pardon?" "Hasn't Moon Sa Seung already taken up the Chief's office?" "We can't break the family tradition of being Bunwon Chief in our generation." "If I don't remain in Bunwon, I wouldn't even have an opportunity to get the chief position back." "I'll need to withstand it, despite how insulting it is." "I'll do it, Father." "It started with me." "So I'm ready to take any insults or humiliation." "However, I beg of you not to go through that humiliation." "It will feel like hell if one has no goal." "But, as long as one has a goal, one can endure it." "Are you saying you have another plan?" "I even thought about ending that girl, Yoo Jung's, life immediately." "However, that won't be enough for me." "I'm going to make that man, Moon Sa Seung, fall first." "Just like what Yoo Jung did to you, I, too, am going to hit Moon Sa Seung first, not Yoo Jung." "Are you saying you're going to take the Bunwon Chief position back?" "That's going to be the start." "Are you completely healed?" "I'm ready to pay for the life." "There's someone you need to take care of, for the last time." "I'm sure it's your daughter." "Isn't it?" "Until you take care of it, you should never be caught, or die." "Keep that in mind." "Jung." "Since you've become a ceramist, which you've always wanted to be..." "You just concentrate on making porcelains now." "What about you?" "Are you going to keep chasing Ma Poong?" "In fact, I saw Ma Poong." "What?" "Where?" "A few nights ago, I saw him coming out after meeting with Chief Lee." "You should be careful for the time being." "Ma Poong will be making a move." "Chief Lee must think he got kicked out of Bunwon because of me." "So he must be thinking about taking revenge on me by any means necessary." "It could be an opportunity to draw Ma Poong out." "Chief Lee is here." "What?" "He's saying he's going to remain in Bunwon, whatever position he may be." "Is that true?" "I heard it clearly." "I was in Chief's room and he suddenly came in." "I clearly saw him begging with my own eyes." "Wow." "I wonder what's on his mind." "Starting with being a ceramist, through royal ceramist competition, he's going to step up to the position of chief once again." "Wouldn't it be something like that?" "Then, does that mean we have to compete against Chief Lee in the royal ceramist competition?" "That makes no sense." "How are we going to win against him?" "I hope Chief will just kick him out." "Even Royal Ceramist Lee..." "I give up on the royal ceramist competition." "So you want to control your mind while making porcelains?" "Yes, Chief." "I've put down everything, so I would like to focus on making porcelains." "You've made the right decision." "Royal Ceramist Lee's studio is empty, so feel free to use it." "Please let me stay in Bunwon, too, Chief." "Wouldn't it be better if you took more time to self-reflect?" "People in Bunwon might not look upon you so favorably either." "I think it's a bit too early." "I'll do everything." "Moving firewood or digging up white clay." "I'll live where the errand workers live." "I'll even be a night guard." "Yook Do!" "Please allow me, Chief." "If you really want to do that, how can I stop you?" "You can quit anytime if things become too hard for you." "Thank you, Chief." "Yoo Jung." "You've finally fulfilled your dream." "I congratulate you." "Are you sincere about that?" "I was the one who expressed the intention of advancing you to a ceramist." "If I were Chief," "I would've appointed you as ceramist myself." "How disappointing." "Joseon's first female ceramist..." "Your father must be so happy if he's looking down from heaven." "Another thing remains which I had promised my father." "The promise I made to my father" "Yes." "I guess it's to become the best ceramist." "Devote yourself so that you can keep that promise." "I'm going to remain in Bunwon." "So that" "I can clearly watch you become the best ceramist." "It's good that you came." "I don't want you to disappear from Bunwon like this, either." "Because my fight against you isn't over yet." "Ceramist!" "Ceramist Yoo Jung!" "Are you going for the firewood?" "We're only errand workers, so what can we do?" "(speaking in formal manner)" "Can't you just call me Jung Yi?" "What are you saying?" "We have to keep calling you that (ceramist) so that other people will call you that as well." "There's no errand worker calling you Madame Ceramist yet, is there?" "No, not yet." "They'll eventually follow if we continue to call you that." "Wait, just a little, Madame Ceramist." "(speaking in formal manner)" "Madame Ceramist." "Elder Ceramist?" "Hey!" " Why is he like that?" " Who knows?" "Royal Ceramist!" "What's the reason you're going this far?" "Is it because of me?" "What's the big deal?" "You even changed your name and dressed up as a man." "You've become a ceramist with the spinning skill learned from me." "So I'm going to regain my position with the humiliation I got from you." "Wouldn't that make it fair?" "Yook Do." "There's no need for you to do this much." "No, Father." "I must do this." "Didn't you say, if I have a goal, I can endure it?" "I don't care what others think." "Don't you worry about me." "Royal Ceramist." "Ceramist, I got the glaze material you requested." "I'll bring it to the studio." "Thank you." "If there's pigment you need, I'll get it ready for you." "I congratulate you on becoming the chief." "Did you say your name was Shim Hwa Ryeong?" "I guess I'll call you Shim Haengsoo." "I'm Jung Yi's childhood friend, so treat me comfortably as if you're treating Jung Yi." "You came as the head of your company, not as Jung Yi's friend, so I can't really do that." "You're well aware that Bunwon has been continuously doing business with us, right?" "Pigment and glaze base..." "When it comes to quality, you have nothing to worry about." "My principle on doing business with a company is based on trust." "The reason I was able to maintain relationships with Sohn Haengsoo for a long time, during my Chief days, was because we kept each other's trust." "I, too, succeeded her principle and am leading the company based on trust." "If you're so keen on trust, you should've kept the promise you made to Jung Yi." "Why did you bring the white clay, which was supposedly for Jung Yi, to Royal Ceramist Lee?" "This ruckus happened because of that." "The one who killed Sohn Haengsoo." "Was the robber caught?" "I have asked the police to catch him several times." "But, so far, not yet." "I'm going to decide whether I'm going to trade with your company or other companies after reviewing all companies." "So, keep that in mind and leave now." "I ask for your kindness, Chief." "Ceramist." "Please teach us how to spin as well." "I'm not skilled enough to teach anyone yet." "Then, can't we even watch?" "Do you want to become a ceramist as well?" "We thought all female workers could do was spend their whole life cooking, doing laundry and assisting the male ceramists." "But seeing you, I now have something called a dream." "There's actually someone who started to have dream, inspired by me?" "It's not just us." "All female workers talk about is you." "Whenever my mind is off somewhere as a ceramist," "I'll think of you guys." "Thanks." "Then, are you allowing us to come to the studio?" "Thank you, thank you!" "We'll take care of rice balls, in case you're hungry." "Congratulations." "I hear you've become the new head of Bunwon." "You've regained your old position." "Although I'm lacking, I'm going to do my best." "What do you mean you're lacking?" "His Majesty speaks so highly of you that I've heard plenty of praises about you." "I'm deeply sorry to say this." "But since he treasures my humble skills," "I'm just immeasurably grateful for his grace." "I know how you left Bunwon." "The Chief position in Bunwon isn't a position one can keep just by making the porcelains right, is it?" "What Her Highness is saying is that she'll protect you." "I'm very grateful, Your Highness." "I'll keep it short since you should already know what you ought to know." "Your Highness." "What is it that I need to do and how do I do it?" "Her Highness is more concerned about the royal family than anybody else." "She's been doing an important task of pressing and smoothing on talkative ministers who want to protect the royal family." "Keep in mind that following Lady In Bin equals to solidifying His Majesty's royal authority as a minister." "I will keep that in mind." "The prince of this nation came personally all the way to take a look at the hardship the border soldiers go through." "But why is your reception so lacking?" "We ran hurriedly here, after hearing about your arrival, in the middle of fortress construction." "Please understand." "To build a fortress, you just need to drag in commoners to get them to work and have a few soldiers supervise them." "Why would you do that yourself?" "That's why you guys are being wasted here because you don't know how to get around things." "The entertaining ladies are ready, right?" "For a change, I'm going to relax my tired mind and body from work and soothe my soul." "Your Highness, why are you tempting us?" "Tempting?" "After Prince Gwang Hae came throught here, all of us commanders here have changed." "We do nothing but secure the border the best we can." "Who doesn't know that?" "I'm going to listen to all the hardship you've been through, so show me what you have prepared!" "Is it because of Gwang Hae?" "What did Gwang Hae say?" "If we try to treat him with impure things one more time..." "He told us we'll have to give him our lives too." "He told us to secure rice for the soldiers with the money we've accumulated." "And to provide relief to commoners who had to leave their homes." "Why are you like this instead of doing what you've always been doing?" "I'm Im Hae, not Gwang Hae!" "Gwang Hae, why is it you keep interfering in all of my plans?" "I'm going to go to the capital city right away!" "Get ready." "Yes." "Think about why you got kicked out of that postion." "If there was someone backing you, would you have been kicked out so pathetically?" "Everything is because I'm lacking." "While you're sitting in that position, make sure you don't make the same mistake again." "You didn't resign on your own." "So I can imagine what years of grief and bitterness you've been through." "If you'll just do Lady In Bin's bidding, what you want and the place(Bunwon) that you've dreamed of making will be the way you want it to be." "For you, who has the key to the porcelain storage room," "It's not that hard." "Do I just have to pick one?" "Yes." "Since I didn't know what you needed," "I told you to come yourself." "This, this, and this." "I prepared a carriage in front of the Bunwon." "So, hurry and move the one's that I have picked." "Yes, Minister." "What are you doing here at this hour?" "That's..." "Receiving Lady In Bin's orders, he's here to get some porcelains." "I'll report it to you soon after making a list of the items." "It's not that, Your Highness." "He just said that he'll show me the storage room in Bunwon, so I came to look around." "Taking porcelains?" "That's nonsense." "Is that it?" "If you've looked around enough, then leave." "Yes, Your Highness." "Since I clearly showed him what's on my mind, he'll never try to appease me again." "I feel secure to have you here." "You said to make the Bunwon that I want." "Just for being able to do what I want, at this age," "I'm so thankful and happy." "Are you saying Moon Sa Seung deceived me?" "He was on Prince Gwang Hae's side after all." "If Gwang Hae gets ahold of Bunwon's finances..." "What about that guy, Lee Kang Cheon?" "How is he doing?" "Excuse me?" "Look into it." "Your Highness..." "Are you thinking of using Lee Kang Cheon again?" "Prince Gwang Hae." "I didn't know your ambition was so great." "What do you mean, ambition?" "That you would put your person in the Bunwon Chief's seat." "At this time when my Prince Shin Seong has resigned from the head official position of Bunwon..." "You'll be having the Bunwon all to yourself." "All I'm doing is my job as the deputy official of Bunwon." "I don't know why you're saying I'm ambitious." "Are you trying to deny it?" "I heard it clearly." "That Gwang Hae, with his own mouth, saying he'll be the crown prince; that he'll sit on the throne." "I heard clearly." "Hyungnim!" "After Great Scholar, who used to support him, was exiled," "I'm sure he tried to pull another string using Bunwon porcelains." "Hurry and tell Honored Father about this." "Calm down, Prince Im Hae." "I'm sure he understands what you're trying to say by now." "I'm aware that both of you tried to involve me in treason recently." "If you try again to frame me, who's innocent," "I won't just be framed." "Did you see?" "If we just leave him like this, we'll probably be attacked first." "I'm going to find a way to do this." "So when the right time comes," "Prince Im Hae, you just need to help me." "Just tell me anytime." "We're already in the same boat." "Have you come?" "I thought you would contact me first, but no matter how much I waited there was none, so I came." "I became Haengsoo without proper experience, so I have been unable to get to that." "Have you looked into the potter about whom I talked to you recently?" "Before I give you the answer, may I ask why you want to meet him?" "Can I take that as saying you've found him?" "How would I be able to neglect your request?" "I found the potter." "As expected, you have great skills." "Please set up a meeting for us as soon as possible." "You'll be compensated generously." "Yes, I'll soon bring him to meet you." "Jung, it seems that you'll have to come back as my friend." "What brings you here?" "I remember the olden days." "When we were young, Teacher Yoo Eul Dam firing up the kiln..." "And, we watched, sitting next to each other, like this." "If he sees that you've become a ceramist, how much would he like it?" "Being Haengsoo at a young age," "It's very hard." "Next to you, you have Tae Do and the Chief as well." "You must feel good." "I'm jealous." "I'm sorry for envying you and being jealous." "I'm regretting." "I want to go back to as we were before." "Hwa Ryeong..." "Hating someone is hard." "If I hadn't hated you, Royal Ceramist wouldn't have fallen like that." "It seems as though it's all my fault." "Jung, can you come to our place tonight?" "It's because I want to congratulate you." "I'll be waiting." "I didn't think you would want to see me." "Are you resentful toward Lady In Bin?" "Of course not." "Not being loyal to Lady In Bin..." "I'm regretting it." "Is that the truth?" "As long as your sincerity hasn't changed," "I'm thinking about mentioning you to Lady In Bin again." "She probably needs me because she's short on funds." "Who else is there, in Joseon, who knows what's on Lady In Bin's mind so well and is willing to act as her right hand man?" "If you give me another chance," "I'll even die for Lady In Bin." "Tae Do, where are you going so hurriedly?" "Jung Yi went out to see a friend, but she hasn't returned." "I'm worried." "He came all the way from Japan to meet you." "Are you the one who purchased my ceramics?" "I was expecting an aged craftsman, so I'm surprised that you are such a young woman." "They were just bowls I made while practicing how to spin the wheel when I wasn't even a ceramist." "Did you perhaps want to see me because of those bowls?" "He thinks more highly of you than anyone else." "The one who thinks highly of you is not me, but a very high and noble person." "Wabi Sabi [Toyotomi Hideyoshi]" "It feels lonely because there's only one." "And because it is so lonely, it became solitude." "That solitude is poignantly beautiful." "I will definitely bring the potter that made it, to you." "If you don't keep that promise, you'll have to surrender your life." "Yes!" "I'll definitely bring the potter." "What does 'Wabi Sabi' mean?" "'Unrefined, but quiet', it's the soul of Japanese tea culture." "Please tell him that I thank him for thinking highly of my ceramics." "You'll have to see him with me." "Are you suggesting that I go to Japan?" "If you come to Japan with me, you'll be placed in a high-ranked position, along with the most respectful treatment." "I appreciate that, but I'm Joseon's ceramist." "This is where I should be." "Here, you're just one of the many ceramists." "However, since you've caught the attention of a very high and noble person, when you come to Japan now, you'll have your own porcelain making place." "With open and huge land and countless subordinates, you'll be able to freely make all the porcelains you want with the best material there is." "This is something really good for you." "How nice it is that you'll be treated as such?" "If I had known about this, I wouldn't have given up making porcelains." "I'll be going now." "I sincerely appreciate the fact that you thought so highly of me." "Just a moment, Sir." "I believed you." "You said you wanted to congratulate me sincerely." "While thinking, 'Ah, now we've become childhood friends again, who can talk about anything,'" "I ran here feeling so excited." "Did you know?" "And this time, you were trying to sell me to a Japanese merchant?" "I thought this was a good thing for both you and me." "You might think you've accomplished everything since you've become a ceramist and Chief Moon is alive." "But Chief Lee, whom you regard as your enemy, is not an easy pushover." "Are you saying you arranged this meeting for me?" "The fact that you think Chief Lee is Teacher Yoo Eul Dam's murderer..." "Chief Lee is aware of it, too." "What?" "It must have been easy to frame gentle and easy Royal Ceramist Lee." "But as long as Chief Lee is targeting you, you'll have to be ready to stand against him with your life." "Before such danger becomes imminent, go to Japan with him instead." "Go there, and being treated nicely for the rest of your life, make porcelains, being respected." "Don't pretend to care for me or think for me." "I have things to do here." "If I have to stand against him with my life at stake, I'll do so." "Why are you following me?" "If you readily follow me," "I'll escort you with utmost respect." "However, if you resist," "I have no other option but to kidnap you like other ceramists." "Jung!" "Orabeoni!" "Go stand next to His Highness." "Your Highness." "I can handle this on my own." "Hurry and take Jung Yi with you." "I have to catch these people." "Was it you?" "Was it Your Highness?" "I knew you were a noble." "But I didn't realize you were a prince." "Shut your mouth!" "Why did you try to kidnap her?" "I don't want to hurt Your Highness." "Please withdraw your sword." "Put down your sword." "Then I'll order my subordinate to put down his sword as well." "When I see you again, you'll meet me as a samurai." "What happened?" "He said he would take me to Japan." "It looks like many ceramists have already been kidnapped." "Japanese swordsmen are striding down the streets of the capital city and try to kidnap a ceramist?" "I can't forgive them for this! Search!" "How could you do such a thing to Jung Yi?" "I'm never going to forgive you." "All I did was to arrange a trade, as a merchant." "I didn't know such a thing would happen." "As long as you're on the opposite side of Jung Yi, you're also my enemy." "Have you ever been on my side?" "Jung Yi was almost kidnapped because of you!" "The payback for saving you from nearly dying is this, Orabeoni?" "!" "So, did Prince Im Hae take a good look at the southern regions?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "The commanders' discipline was loose, but I tightened it up." "What was the sentiment among the common people?" "All of them were busy harvesting, honoring your royal grace." "The lives of the common people is representative of your reign of peace itself." "Is that so?" "Your Majesty." "Japanese swordsmen are striding down the streets of even the capital city." "Recently, a Bunwon ceramist was almost kidnapped." "And, countless ceramists, in other parts of the country, have already been kidnapped." "Is that true?" "Yes, Your Majesty." "The person, who tried to kidnap a Bunwon ceramist, is suspected to be a swordsman who guards Toyotomi Hideyoshi." "An enemy swordsman striding down the capital city..." "Shouldn't you have arrested him?" "We raided the place he was staying, but he was already gone." "In times like this, we must establish the foundation of this country correctly." "So, all you ministers shall strive to fulfill your duties." "Yes, Your Majesty." "And, to keep Japan in check," "I'm going to strengthen the relationship with Ming." "So, Bunwon Deputy Gwang Hae shall prepare porcelains for presentation soon." "I will do as your Majesty ordered." "Can you make 500 porcelains to be sent to Ming within the set time frame?" "I'll have to." "That's what Bunwon does." "As Chief, this is the first test for you." "Please be sure to satisfy the royal heart." "I'll do my best, Your Highness." "Bunwon will make gift porcelains." "I'm not going to be able to make any porcelain now." "Would I be suggesting we make porcelains now?" "This is a test on which His Majesty will evaluate" "Moon Sa Seung." "An opportunity arrived faster than I thought." "I won't let go of this opportunity." "You mean you will cut off Moon Sa Seung?" "Not ony Moon Sa Seung, but Yoo Jung as well..." "They won't be able to survive." "Teacher." "Am I going to participate in making the gift porcelains?" "Why are you asking such an obvious question?" "You, too, are a ceramist, so you should do your part." "Yes, Teacher." "I'm so thrilled to think that I can finally do my part as a ceramist."
