"Subtitles provided by MBC" "Get some dried persimmons while you're at it." "You deaf or what...?" "Who are you?" "Sungnyang." "Who sent you?" "Don't go." "Don't leave me alone." "[Episode 04]" "Report." "An assassin." "In the compound." " Find him." " Sir." "The Prince?" "Safe." "We'll report to the commander." "No." "I'll stay here." "You can report." "Huh?" "Oh, right." "Commander." "Report." "We searched the whole island." "Just old fishermen and their wives." "I know I wounded his arm." "We checked the men." "No one is wounded." "He can't evade us for long." "He's somewhere on the island." "How is the Prince?" "He just dozed off." "He's pretty shook up." "Perhaps a tonic?" "Of course." "Stand guard here." "Sir." "Sungnyang." "Come with me." "Yes, sir?" "You're so like your mother." "Why didn't you say anything?" "Sweetie..." "Commander." "Commander?" "He's your father." "Listen, you have brothers." "They'll want to meet you." "There's no need." "I like how things are." "Sungnyang." "The Prince will be looking for me." "With your permission." "You..." "Leave her." "It's no wonder she's angry." "Losing her mother, all those years alone." "Sungnyang..." "Sungnyang!" "You know how desperately he's been searching for you?" "After your mother died..." "Don't." "Not on my account." "I was sent off to be a concubine." "If it comes out that I'm posing as a man the whole family will suffer." "This way I can be near the commander." "Act like you don't know." "Help me." "No, Father..." "No..." "Prince." "Are you all right?" "Here." "Move it." "Ugh." "Teach me the sword." "I'm not kidding." "Teach me and I won't bother you again." "I am to attend you." "Nothing more." "That's all you do, follow orders?" "Fine, we'll see who wins." "What are you doing?" "If I die, you die." "You going to wait for the assassin to cut your throat?" "All right, then I'll attack." "The assassin will appreciate the opening." "If that were my sword you'd be dead." "You just lost a leg." "You just lost your neck." "You're dead." "I won't die." "I'm going to live." "Prince." "What?" "Blood." "You're bleeding." "Blood..." "EEK!" "Blood!" "Your Worship, what happened?" "I told you never to leave his side." "This can't be allowed." "Now let's have your report." "I accept full blame..." "I hit my head." "He didn't do anything." "If you must blame someone, blame the stones I tripped on." "Those stones, now... they really get my goat." "How may I be of service?" "An assassin is on the island." "Did you know this?" "I had no idea." "I am the King." "You are a Koryo vassal." "You sit on the throne while I remain standing." "I will not have a vassal betray this country." "You wrong me, Sire." "If making Koryo a Yuan state isn't betrayal, what is?" "Sire." "Koryo does not exist to give you power." "What?" "How much longer can Koryo hold out against the Yuan?" "Ten years?" "Twenty?" "Have you considered the price in pain and misery your people pay?" "Do not invoke our people to hide your own greed." "The people of Koryo are wasting away." "They have long since become skin and bones." "Soon even their bones will be full of holes." "Until they collapse en masse." "Like a rotted corpse." "As if you don't know who made them that way?" "Don't think you're the only one that loves our people." "Fattening the body requires more than words." "It needs substance." "Something that is quite beyond you." "I can forgive your siding with Yuan." "But not your contempt for Koryo." "Remember which nation you serve." "Disloyalty deserves no mercy." "Understood?" "Hah!" "How about THAT?" "You definitely hit it." "Think this is easy?" "Less talk, more shooting, all right?" "What's that?" "Heh." "Backwater hicks." "Shoot your little arrows, Ranger Baby." "Maybe by tomorrow..." "Less bragging, more shooting, if you please." "Argh!" "I swear, swords, arrows, I can't beat him." "It's Sungnyang, if you'll pardon me." "Put these on." "Where you going." "Here, here." "Wash them." "Right here." "That's it, that's it." "Oh, yeah." "A bit more, that's it." "I bet I can beat you riding." "Pssh." "You laughing?" "Laughing at me?" "I was reared on a horse." "Silence." "No one rides better than the Mongols." "We have the blood of Koguryo." "No one can beat us riding." "Oh." "A race, then?" "Two horses, just you and me." "So one of us can die?" "Scared?" "Yes, yes." "I lose." "Wait." "I'm not ordering." "I'm asking." "Get the horses." "I can't live like this, all cooped up." "I want to gallop, feel the wind in my face." "Can't you get me out of here for one day at least?" "We haven't caught the assassin." "Come on." "Just once." "I need fresh air." "Hold a knife to my neck, it's still..." "It's still no." "'No, no, no!" "'" "What is a yes with you?" "Anything that isn't a no." "Fine, then, I'll kill myself!" "That was close." "You up for it?" "First one to the boat wins." "Perfect." "You know you don't stand a chance." "Look at your saddle." "Tricks over skill, is that it?" "I can't beat you." "What can I say?" "You can say no more races." "Father." "I don't want to die." "I want to go home." "Go home and avenge your death." "And my exile." "How could you do this?" "How could you leave me?" "Father." "I miss you." "Father..." "Father!" "Father!" "Father!" "Welcome, Sire." "I appreciate your hard work." "The Prince and Sungnyang?" "Sire..." "Is something wrong?" "We lost a horse." "We need to get back." "Makes sense." "I'm surrounded by enemies." "If... just if..." "I live to be emperor..." "I won't forget you." "I don't care if you do." "But if you do rule Yuan, don't use Koryo for concubines and eunuchs." "Being torn from your family... perhaps to die in a faraway land..." "Now you know what that's like." "Will I ever leave this island alive?" "For the good of Koryo... you must." "You don't know." "Those who sent me here are cruel, merciless." "They'll try to kill me." "You don't know them." "Your Majesty." "Have you lost your mind?" "Off on a joyride with an assassin about?" "Forgive me, Sire." "Nothing to forgive." "It was my order." "Don't blame him." "I'm hungry." "Let's go." "Where's the other horse?" "It ran off." "Ride with me." "No." "Ride with me." "Well?" "Mount up." "It will inconvenience you." "If you please, Sire." "The assassin can't be far." "Guard the perimeter." "Be careful whom you trust." "I will." "Togon is an odd one." "Any problems?" "It's interesting." "That's a good thing." "May I make a request?" "Go ahead." "The Prince isn't eating properly." "I'll have a cook sent from the royal kitchens." "Yes, Sire." "And there are his clothes." "He has no seamstress." "I'll send someone." "Anything else?" "Thank you, Sire." "Sungnyang..." "I will stand guard tonight." "Get me Sungnyang." "He..." "He's with the King." "He won't be here tonight." "He's not taking him from me?" "The King has him watching your actions." "It's better if he is reposted." "I've grown fond of him." "I'll go get him myself." "If you'll pardon me." "Stay here tonight." "Why are you surprised?" "The assassin is still out there." "I cannot leave the Prince's side." "I'll send Captain Ho." "He's a better fighter than you." "Relax." "Sungnyang, you there?" "Yes." "Yes, Prince." "May I come in?" "Enter." "Perfect timing." "I could use a drink." "Here." "For all your hard work." "No thank you." "You'll let the King pour but not me?" "I'm on duty." "You need the King's permission." "Drink." "With your permission." "You have good men." "Sungnyang, if I ever get back to Yuan... how about coming with me?" "Ah, you need permission for that, too?" "Give me Sungnyang." "Even if I forced him... he would never leave." "I see." "What do you say to that?" "It's late." "Pardon me." "Wait for me." "Thanks for the drink." "Sungnyang." "I had my fill." "Why do my insides burn?" "[The Capital of Yuan]" " Bring them." " Sir." "What now?" "Where...?" "Bayan." "Time to fix your mistake." "Sir?" "They took him to Daechong." "That's where we attack." "You want us to be assassins?" "No." "An assassin isn't enough." "I want soldiers." "They will strike the island wearing Koryo uniforms." "Father." "This scum isn't up to it." "Let us do it." "We will bring you Togon's head." "In that case..." "Kill every living thing on the island." "If it sees, if it hears, nothing can be left alive." "That's the only way to turn this on Koryo." "Understood?" "Yes, sir." "El Temur is a terrifying man." "What are we to do when the Yuan soldiers arrive?" "Assist them in striking the local office." "Yes, Sire." "They don't suspect you were the assassin." "Not to worry." "No one suspects, not even Ki Jaho." "Sire?" "Search my personal staff?" "As much as it pains you." "No one can be exempt." "Yes, Sire." "Argh!" "Maybe you should give up the split arrow." "A wisp of thing like you can do it." "It's not as easy as it looks." "Once more." "'Great Mountain.' The front hand as firm as a mountain." "'Tiger's Tail.' Pull as easy as if it's a tiger's tail." "Feel that?" "Right, I can feel it." "Firm mountain, got it." "Fluffy little tiger tail." "Don't laugh." "What's he up to anyway?" "That..." "Leave it." "Sungnyang." "Why are you angry that I'm with the Prince?" "Um..." "I just don't like him is all." "That's all?" "Why don't I believe you?" "Don't smile like that." "Why can't I smile?" "I said knock it off." "Hee-hee." "That's an order." "No more smiling." "Sungnyang, I said stop..." "Stop!" "Are you all right?" "Get some rest." "Sire." "Pardon our failings." "We didn't realize how painful this is for you." "How painful what is?" "Sungnyang is a man." "So?" "We can find you the sweetest lil babydoll in all Koryo, but a MAN...?" "Interested in a man of all things?" "What?" "'Interested?" "'" "Don't be shy." "It's not your fault." "We're to blame..." "What is this?" "You think I'm interested in Sungnyang?" "Aren't you?" "What a relief, Sire." "Get out!" "Go!" "They think... me... and Sungnyang...?" "He's not taking Sungnyang, is he?" "The Inju detachment will stay here." "You are assigned to the capital." "Sire." "Attend to your duties to the Prince, but nothing more." "Do not let friendship cloud your judgment." "Yes, Sire." "Accuracy... and power...!" "Captain Yom." "Sir." "This was found in your room." "Elm root bark for treating wounds." "Explain why it is in your room." "Are you accusing me of being the assassin?" "Accuse?" "We're just asking about the root bark." "What?" "Does that hurt?" "Explain yourself." "How did it happen?" "Must I explain?" "I insist that you do." "I was hurt in training." "Look here, you think we're stupid?" "Who hurt you then?" "I did." "Practice got a bit out of hand." "All the men saw it." "Satisfied?" "Relax." "We're all under pressure since the assassin incident." "If you'll excuse me." "It's not him." "Keep an eye on him, just in case." "One more day." "By tonight all of you will be dead." "Whatever happened before, this time... we'll take Togon's head." "Still, going this far..." "It's disturbing." "We have no choice." "Clutch a viper to your bosom, sooner or later it will strike." "So you agree that El Temur killed Yesun Temur Khan?" "Why else would he be so frantic to see Togon dead?" "I hear the Emperor's illness is getting worse." "What?" "If the Emperor dies, Togon is next in line." "True." "That explains the rush." "Togon has to die before the Emperor does..." "We're making landfall." "Get ready." "No one knows we're coming." "They're not likely to be greet us." "Just keep your mouth shut and carry the banner." "Now, now." "I'm an old hand at this kind of thing." "Silence." "Remember we're here because of you." "Bayan, your life or death depends on today." "I know." "I will repay Regent El Temur for all he's done." "[Daechong Island]" "Wang Ko sent me." "Stand down." "Yom Byongsu." "Togon?" "Sleeping peacefully." "How many gates?" "The north gate, the south gate, and three side gates." "Togon's quarters?" "Near the north gate." "We'll storm the north gate." "Bayan, take the south and side gates." "Right." "Show us the way." "Sir." "Yom is gone." "Gone?" "Report." "He didn't show up for his shift." "I looked and he's gone." "He was the assassin." "Find him." "Sir." "What is that?" "Sir." "We're under attack." "At night?" "We're at war?" "But they're Koryo soldiers." "What?" "Koryo?" "Take Togon's head!" "No excuses!" "General Bayan?" "What is this?" "Take us to Togon if you want to live." "Wait, why do Koryo soldiers want me dead?" "They're not Koryo soldiers." "Move in." "That's Togon." "Kill him." "Sir." "Hold it!" "Well?" "Get him." "Over the wall." "Move." "It's too high." "Go on!" " Move in!" " Move!" "No." " Sungnyang!" " Sungnyang." " You?" " Go on." "No." "Not by myself." "Take my hand!" "I said go." "Prince." "Prince." "Sungnyang." "He's inside." "Close the gates." "Bar them and move out." "Sungnyang is still inside!" "Move before they get here." "Move!" "Sungnyang is inside!" "Over the wall." "Hurry, Sungnyang!" " Do you hear?" " I hear." "Well?" "Get Togon." "Sir." "With me." "Sir!" "I'm going to rip out your heart with my own hands." "Mom!" "So it's you." "You killed my mom." "I did what now?" "I'm unarmed." "Rip out my heart." "If you dare." "Is that an insult?" "Pick up your sword." "Fine." "Then die." "You think I won't kill you anyway?" "Sungnyang!" "Sungnyang." "We're out of time." "Through the back gate!" "The back gate!" "Your Worship." "Zhang..." "Bayan." "Surrender and we'll spare you." "Resist and you will all die." "Lower your weapons and give us Togon." "We fight to the last man." "If we die, we die as men of Koryo." "For honor, for glory." "Are you with me?" "Yes, sir!" "Protect the Prince." "We trained for this." "Break their line!" "Fire." "Kill them all." "No one gets away!" "There's a boat over the hill." "Take the Prince off the island." "And you?" "We'll die if we all go." "Not without you." "Obey your father." "Father." "Sungnyang!" "You have to live." "Live to protect Togon." "That is my final order, Sungnyang." "Get them!" "Move!" "I'm sorry, Sungnyang." "My little girl..." "After them!" "Stop them!" "Spread out." "We're here." "Stay with me." "My heart is about to burst." "Get up." "There." "Crossbow." "Sungnyang." "Not bad for a wisp of a thing." "Bayan." "Your long journey... ends here." "This is my last service to you." "Take your life." "Maintain the honor of the imperial house." "It's decided." "I'll kill you myself." "Look at me." "At who I am." "Yesun Temur Khan chose me as his successor." "I am the Yuan heir." "Kill me and you'll live as El Temur's dog." "But your clan will be cursed for killing an emperor." "Now..." "Raise your sword and kill me." "Drench it in dragon's blood." "A dragon without a throne is nothing more than a snake." "My brother is dying." "He doesn't have long." "A little longer and I will ascend the dragon throne." "If I don't do it, someone else will." "I will not die." "My grandfather's grandfather, his grandfather, Genghis Khan Temujin... protects me." "Genghis Khan." "Tangqishi will be here soon." "Promise me this." "Live and show me who you really are." "Heaven will not forsake a dragon." "You are my Emperor now." "Do not forget your general." "Any regrets?" "The moment the Emperor dies... that little fool will be take the throne." "If I must gamble, I prefer the winning hand." "He'll probably die, but if he doesn't... he'll be Emperor." "Well?" "Fire." "Fire, fire!" "Get another boat!" "Move!" "Yes, sir." "With me!" "Sir!" "They were in my hands and got away." "I would have brought more men if I'd known..." "Die!" "Die!" "That's how you can help me!" "No." "No...!" "Your Majesty?" "A nightmare." "What about, Sire?" "My late mother was surrounded by demons." "Sire, Musong." "Enter." "Wang Ko left for Injo last night." "Inju?" "He snuck off in the night." "And for Inju..." "Daechong may be threatened." "Have Jombak muster his men." "Yes, Sire." "The King of Shenyang." "Togon got away?" "They found a fisherman's boat." "How could you...?" "Now isn't the time." "Establish a base camp and search the area." "Yes, sir." "Make camp!" "Where are we going?" "Kaegyong." "What?" "Kaegyong?" "What for?" "The King needs to know you're still alive." "Wang Ko has betrayed us." "Koryo isn't safe." "We have to keep moving." "Wait, Sungnyang." "You..." "So you sold us out to the Yuan?" "Where is Togon headed?" "Betraying your own." "You disgust me." "I'll take him to Kaegyong." "Kaegyong?" "Don't worry." "I will rip out his tongue." "He won't say a thing." "Yom Byongsu will do all the talking." "What are you up to?" "You still don't get it?" "You led the attack on Togon." "At the King's behest." "You!" "Have you no fear?" "Kill me now!" "Kill me!" "Rip out his tongue." " Move out." " Kill me!" "Father... please..." "look this way..." "Father, please." "Look at me..." "Father..." "Tangqishi, find Togon or else." "Post this picture." "Offer a reward." "I don't know anything." "Nothing, Sungnyang." "If you want to live, to be emperor, you have to jump." "Sungnyang, I'll kill you, I swear." "You really want Koryo to burn?" "Ki Jaho attacked the Prince and torched Daechong." "I will kill El Temur myself." "Prince!" "No!" "No, Sungnyang, you can't die." "Don't die, Sungnyang." "Stay alive."
