"Traitor Gim Gwang Taek helped a rebel to escape." "According to the King's Law, the death penalty is to be carried out." "This child, whose family is to be annihilated, shall be boiled alive." "Mercy!" "Please have mercy!" "I beg you!" "Why aren't you proceeding?" "Stop!" "The criminal, Gim Gwang Taek, is pardoned." "This is His Majesty's Royal edict." "To save this child, I'm willing to sacrifice an arm." "If I can't even save a new born baby... what's the use of having an arm?" "Please forgive me." "I'm..." "I'm useless..." "You are the next monarch of this nation." "Please have have a strong heart and resolute mind." "It took us a long way to get here." "We can't let this end with just the loss of one arm." "Leave quickly and contact Heuksa Chorong." "(Heuksa Chorong = Qing Dynasty's Hired Assassins Guild)" "What?" "This is an opportunity." "Do you understand?" "Move aside!" "Hyeongnim!" "(Hyeongnim - respected older brother)" "This..." "Damn guy!" "Old man!" "Get up!" "Get up!" "Your son cut off hyeongnim's hand." "Come with me." "Let's go!" "I deserve to die a thousand deaths." "Please let..." "let..." "let... me go." "Shut your foul mouth!" "Treat hyeongnim's arm first!" "Then save that child!" "Not only must you save him, you have to make him normal!" "Otherwise," "I'll make you live the rest of your life without limbs." "Do you understand?" "I know..." "I know..." "I heard Sword Saint lost an arm." "The Gayageum's tune is like those days of the cold and lonely winter-frost." "Drawing paper in white plum, that is blooming in the snow." "The both of you are really a match made in heaven." "Ah right..." "I don't know if you've heard about it." "The Sword Saint lost an arm." "That's really..." "After the lesson he taught me... why are you even surprised hearing about what happened to him." "I'm really jealous of the Sword Saint." "Sir Hong Dae Ju is looking for you." "That is the prize for the Sword Saint's head" "With that amount, you won't think it's too little." "It looks like Gwang Taek's head is very expensive." "Aside from that, we have to get rid of Baek Sa Goeng's child." "Sir, it seems that you've found the wrong person." "Plotting behind his back is bad enough." "Now you even want me to kill a baby." "Do you think I'm so frivolous?" "Can it be that you're thinking of breaking our agreement?" "Agreement?" "Agreement..." "If you hang it on your ear, it's called earring." "If you hang it on your nose, it's a nose ring." "Agreements are always changing." "Besides, for someone like you who shoots down the birds in the sky... why would you even care about our agreement?" "Is that what is really inside you?" "You be the judge." "I'll be leaving now." "I really want to take that temper of his and throw it into a mortar and grind it." "Sir," "Sir, you may not notice but I understand etiquette very well." "Furthermore, we been dealing for a day or two." "So," "I'll just accept your gift." "Among all metals, gold is the most delicious one." "With these... even distorted bones can be improved?" "I don't know." "I cannot be certain about the future." "But right now I can not think of any other way." "Until when must he live with those bamboo splints?" "As short as a few months or as long as a lifetime." "Luckily, his bone has not hardened yet." "If we do this, it should get better." "Are you leaving now?" "Sir Hong Dae Ju will definitely not leave any unfinished business that he might regret." "He already cut off my arm." "He definitely won't leave me alone." "He won't stop until I'm dead." "Then again, there is no reason for you to continue staying in Joseon." "Therefore..." "I plan to take Dong Su with me." "What?" "He is the son of Sa Goeng whom Sir Hong Dae Ju hates." "You think since he's just a baby, Hong Dae Ju will just stand by and do nothing?" "You are right... but your health is also not that good." "If you take him along, where can you go?" "I'll be fine." "Do you plan to return to your home town?" "Yes." "It is also not right for me to continue staying here." "I plan to leave immediately." "Then, on the way you might as well go to Cho Sang and take a look." "Cho Sang hyeongnim?" "Didn't he just have a child at the old age..." "Wouldn't it be better if you greet hyeongnim yourself?" "Yes, I got it." "What do you plan to do?" "Are you leaving immediately?" "The way I see it, there's no need to wait." "You must explain to His Royal Highness properly." "Yes." "You can give the child to me." "It is so unfortunate that I have nothing to say." "Where did you lose that arm of yours?" "What's this about?" "I'm not here for your life, so there's no need to worry." "What is that in your arm?" "You don't have to know." "You really are very stubborn my friend." "You just need to bear this in mind..." "Regardless of when..." "I'll will be waiting for you." "Anytime." "The wine is good." "Hey, Gwang Taek." "If you choose that road, take care of yourself." "There is more than one friend who was sent to finish you." "What's wrong?" "You're not as good as before because you lost an arm?" "Do I need to to lend you my arm?" "Then you can cut if off!" "It should be very painful." "Hate it..." "Hate it." "Or you can put down the child in your arm." "In dealing with scums like you..." "One arm is enough." "What is this?" "Hyeongnim!" "Cho Sang hyeongnim!" "Who are you?" "Aren't you Dae Po?" "What is this all about?" "Don't say anymore!" "Because I have not paid my debt these guys beat me up as if they're beating a wild dog." "That's really..." "Here." "These should be more than enough." "Let's go, Hyeongnim." "Killer Star Destiny?" "Hyeongnim, your child is born with a Killer Star Destiny?" "She's carrying a child who has a Killer Star Destiny." "Furthermore, one who is extremely vicious." "Hyeongnim is really..." "Where can you find such a thing as Killer Star Destiny in this world?" "How can you believe that superstition?" "What a pity on Hyeongnim's name." "(name here refers to his reputation)" "My name." "We've already discussed this before..." "I, Yeo Cho Sang..." "In terms of martial arts, I am not better than Gwang Taek..." "But if it's about predicting a person's Eight Character Destiny, I don't miss a thing!" "Don't you feel disgraced at all?" "Sword Saint hyeongnim lost an arm without committing any crime!" "What?" "Did something happen to Gwang Taek?" "None." "Nothing happened." "Better take good care of your health." "Stop drinking will you!" "Because of this wine, sooner or later we'll be holding a funeral." "You kid..." "I am Yeo Cho Sang...." "Cho Sang." "Ah..." "this really tastes great." "That child is born with a Killer Star Destiny." "If continues to live," "His hands will be stained with blood." "Get out of my way!" "You can not..." "Child, you should not have been born into this world." "I really do not understand why you have been born as my child." "Because of me..." "a person like you was born" "I will personally take care of this situation." "You have already started to kill others." "Do you understand... being born with a Killer Star Destiny is your fate." "Your death..." "will save the lives of many." "So do not blame your father!" "Why isn't the child crying?" "He knows that even if he cries, his mother and father won't be there for him." "This child has very bright eyes." "Is it all right for you to be here like this?" "When this child grows up, how would he look at me?" "When that time comes, will he still look at me with such clear eyes?" "Ga Ok." "Most likely not." "He will look at me with hateful, blaming eyes." "Don't you want to go with me to the Qing?" "Can I really do that?" "How can I even dream of such happiness?" "If you want me to go with you... won't you complain about my heart?" "Your sincerity," "I will not forget for the rest of my life." "Do not worry." "You will be all right." "It's a trap." "Go and see." "Where are you?" "You call yourself a Sword Saint?" "But you resort to using such a cheap trick." "What a disgrace!" "That's too despicable!" "Your not a Sword Saint!" "Come out!" "Come on!" "Mercy!" "Spare me, please?" "Do you have any last words?" "Yes, please..." "I'm begging for your mercy." "Having forgiven you once is more than enough." "I have already put down my sword!" "Please spare me!" "Sword Saint." "As Sword Saint, how can you kill someone who is weaponless?" "It's too despicable!" "You are really a worthless person!" "Sword Saint!" "Don't!" "Don't!" "Have mercy!" "Just go." "I will leave, I will leave immediately." "Dong Su." "Dong Su!" "Dong Su!" "Dong Su!" "Dong Su! -=Baek Sa Goeng=" "There was only the baby?" "Yes." "That's impossible." "Was the child really alone?" "What..." "what exactly happened?" "=12 years later=" "Jump." "What's wrong?" "Are you scared?" "Forget it if you're scared." "Wait!" "You all promised..." "If I jump..." "You guys will accept me as one of your friends later." "We already said we will." "How many times do I have to repeat it?" "Chief!" "Chief!" "Dong Su, he..." "Dong Su!" "Dong Su!" " Over there." " Dong Su, Dong Su." "There." "There." "Dong Su!" "Wake up, Dong Su!" "Wake up, kid!" "Yeo Un!" "Damn kid." "Rotten brat!" "I already forbade you from practicing with a sword!" "Defiant..." "Here..." "Brat." "Do you feel so wronged?" "You are very fortunate to be alive." "Quickly eat!" "If you get pneumonia then there is no cure." "I cannot run and cannot eat rice..." "what is so fortunate about that?" "I shouldn't have been born into this world." "Am I right?" "Don't ever say such thing again!" "Then..." "What do you want me to do?" "If I can't even feed myself with a spoon, what am I supposed to do with the rest of my body." "Having to live like this..." "I might as well forget about living and die just like my father." "Dong Su..." "I..." "I can assure you one thing..." "I won't let you have a meaningless death." "Let's go!" "Let's go!" "Wait a moment." "Isn't that Yeo Un?" "It's him." "What's he doing?" "Do you all know?" "What?" "Yeo Un's father killed his mother with his own hands." "Of course, we already know." "Didn't you say..." "Mother died giving birth to me?" "Say something." "It was father..." "It was father who killed mother, right?" "It was father who killed mother, right?" "Mother!" "It was you who killed her, right?" "Yes." "I killed her." "So what?" "Do you have a problem with that?" "Your name?" " My turn, my turn." " Hit it this time." "Hit it!" "What?" "Hey, don't be bothered by him." "Do you want to die?" "What?" "What's wrong?" "Kill me if you can." "Your father is a murderer, and you're just like him." "Hey!" "Hey!" "What are you doing?" "Wait and see..." "you won't get away with this." "What is your name?" "I asked what is your name?" "Does it hurt?" "Why did you do such a stupid thing?" "Are you the shopkeeper's son?" "You go back home now." "What's wrong?" "Don't want to go in?" "Then you... are willing to come with me?" "If you want, you can follow." "He's the new kid." "Teach him well." "Eat." "I don't want to." "There's nothing worse than starving." "Eat now." "I said I don't want to." "Fine." "Don't eat!" "But it's your loss." "Aish, really!" "Dong Su, won't you eat your food?" "I'm not eating it." "Aigoo, welcome!" "How come you're not playing with them?" "Dong Su, do you want to play with us?" "Why sit there?" "Come on!" "Looks like you can't." "You can make a fist?" "Stop!" "When you see a sick friend..." "It's fine if you don't help but what are you doing?" "!" "Rotten girl." "Let go!" "Let go of me." "Would you like to be taught a lesson by this rotten girl?" "I won't do it anymore." "You both just wait and see." "You're Heuk Sa Mo ajussi's son, right?" "From now on..." "Really..." "there is a lot." "From rough estimate, it will take more than a month." "It is all right." "No need to worry about the time." "Ah that kid that came with you, is she your daughter?" "Her name is Jin Ju." "Jin Ju?" "What a pretty name." "Come in." "Sa Mo..." "who is she?" "For the next month, she will be a friend who'll spend time with you." "You two must get along." "That fellow who stays there rain or shine, will definitely try to catch you." "You must be careful." "Be very careful." "No need to worry." "It's not like this is the first or second time we've done this." "With all these..." "our brothers in the mountains won't have to starve for some time." "We are grateful every time." " We are grateful every time." " Please take care of this well." "No need to worry." "Everyone divide the load and then let's go." "Yes, step there." "The side..." "that side." " She's up." " She's really up." "She's really great." "Look at him." "He wants to climb it too." "He definitely won't be able to." "Let's cross the river!" "Dong Su!" "It's been a long time." "At ease." "Is the road filled with danger every time?" "No." "Dirty businesses and transactions are handled on this road." "Don't tell me..." "I do not know what will happen." "You have to always be careful." "Your Royal Highness." "Isn't this a Sang Pyeong Tong Bo?" "But..." "It's not an ordinary coin." "It must have been left behind by King Hyo Jong." "Sang Pyeong Tong Bo... is as valuable as treasures that are in circulation." "An alternative explanation..." "is to remind us of the the Manchurian invasion of Joseon." "King Hyojong's will for the Northern Expedition that failed to take place was transferred on this." "But there is a more significant secret than this." "This half a piece of coin is our clue to find the Bukbeoljigye." "(Bukbeoljigye - the Northern Expedition strategy war book that King Hyojong left behind.)" "Your Royal Highness... do you mean Bukbeoljigye?" "Have a look." "These two words are clue." "Northern Expedition?" "The Crown Prince clearly said Northern Expedition?" "Yes." "I clearly heard Northern Expedition." "Furthermore, he also said" "King Hyo Jong left clues on the coin." "Clues were left about the Northern Expedition..." "for what?" "Clues." "Yes." "But I wasn't able to listen to all of it." "Sir, aren't they talking about the rumored Northern Expedition?" "That is correct." "Sir, what is that the Northern Expedition about?" "There are several types of poison." "Snake venom, fire poison, food poison, fish poison, smoke poison." "There are several types of venomous snake." "Short-tailed viper, Saxatilis Viper (Agkistrodon saxatilis)." "Saxatilis Viper?" "The Saxatilis Viper is two feet long and weighs a pound." "Gray and yellow in color, its head has an arrow pattern and its body has black lines." "Shall I continue?" "If one happened to be bitten, one must immediately cut off the flesh and suck out the blood." "Mix dandelion species, flower pollen, northern fish, and apply it to the wound or drink it." "Shall I continue?" "First chapter: drug prescription." "Joseon has a total of 649 kinds of medicinal herbs." "He's really a genius." "A genius." "So smart." "Who did he take after... definitely not me." "Is he not back yet?" "There's still about 15 minutes left." "Do you know the true meaning of holding a real sword in your hands?" "You're laughing?" "One of two things..." "Either you are crazy or you are a genius." "Isn't that right?" "Remember, an assassin must not have a shred of hesitation." "Do you know what that means?" "Yes." "Child." "Now, there is only one final assessment left." "What will it be?" "To assasinate the person you cherish and love the most." "Ding Dong!" "Well, who is that person?" "My father." "Father?" "Really..." "Really..." "I love tragedies about father and son killing each other." "Quickly come inside!" "Quickly!" "quickly!" "Hey, sit down." "Sit down." "You all see what this is?" "Frog." "Do you know how to eat it?" "How do you eat it?" "How do you eat it?" "First, hold it." "And then break the hind legs." "Then tie it on a bamboo stick with a string." "Lastly, place it on the cooker." "It's on fire!" "Quick!" "Run!" "It's on fire!" "Run." "Fire!" "There's fire!" "Fire!" "What?" "Fire!" "Jin Ju is inside." "What did you say?" "!" "Quickly go!" "Help!" "Help!" "Is anyone out there?" "I don't want to go inside." "Jin Ju." "Dong Su." "Are you all right?" "Yeo Un is that you?" "Is that you?" "Rotten brat, it is you!" "You kid, what were you doing?" "Why didn't you come home?" "I tried my best to stop you." "But you still... still carry the Killer Star Destiny." "Although I cannot turn back time," "I can still slit your throat to bury the Killer Star." "This is all because of Father." "You're blaming me?" "You can only blame yourself for carrying the Killer Star Destiny." "It's because of Father..." "It's all because of Father..." "No matter what, I should have personally..." "I don't carry a Killer Star Destiny." "You're lucky child." "Your father is dead person anyway." "So..." "So..." "Your father... must be the first and the last person you will kill."
