"Brought to you by WITH S2 Written In The Heavens Subbing Squad" "Episode 16" "Do you want to be my Gisaeng-Husband?" "Are you willing?" "You want to be my husband, but you won't answer my question?" "If this is what you want, it is acceptable to me." "Don't use me as a weapon to hurt yourself." "I will always be here at the same place." "Come to me, not when you want to hurt yourself, but when you want to rest." "Come find me then." "Come and sit." "Did I do something wrong?" "Is it wrong of me to love you?" "I told you I would throw it all away..." "If I could have you, if only I could have you, all that I have amassed until now, even my dreams and ambitions, I would throw it all away." "I told you that I love you that much..." "Was that wrong?" "What did you expect of me?" "Did you want me to cry tears of emotion and grab the hand that you offered me?" "Look here..!" "You..." "All you noblemen..." "When will you stop thinking that the love you offer is enough?" "Why do you think you are the only one who must sacrifice?" "Why do you think you're giving up everything and I..." "Why do you think I have nothing to lose?" "Aren't you cold?" "The night is cold." "Wear this." "Go on, take it." "You'll catch a cold!" "The Minister is a good man." "I know." "If you cut him off so brusquely, it will weigh heavily on your heart." "Don't worry, sir." "Life has taught me too many things for me to still believe that love is everything." "Is not a courtesan an artist before she is a woman?" "An artist who can live her entire life just holding on to her art..." "You're here early." "Why does your face look like that?" "Did you not get enough sleep?" "Aren't we practicing today?" "Why do you think you are the only one who is sacrificing himself?" "Why do you think you're giving up something and I..." "Why do you think I have nothing to lose?" "There must be balance!" "More fluid movement!" "Straighten out that leg!" "The life of the Crane Dance is its elegance." "Your whole body must appear elegant and lovely." "Lift up your head." "Lift up your body as if someone is pulling it up from above." "That's right." "Fold the wings under and step forward slowly." "Why are you thrusting your chest forward like that?" "How can you advance when your mind is elsewhere?" "You must correct your movements until this point." "Only then will I teach you the rest." "Enough!" "How many times must I tell you the Drum is different from the Sword?" "You cannot use your wrist like you do for the Sword Dance!" "Do you wish to rip it to shreds before you hit the drum?" "And don't just use your forearms." "You must not use too much of your arm strength." "Discard all desire to hit the drum with the drumstick." "Think of the drumstick as an extension of your arms." "Breathe in like this." "Drink in all the breath you can." "Disperse your strength throughout your body... and as your breath instructs you As your body instructs you..." "This is the only way you will get a clear sound from the drum." "I will try it again." "No." "No." "You still have much to learn." "You must make your body listen to you first." "Don't even think about hitting the drum before that!" "Don't think about anything else." "Learn the Sword Dance first!" "If your passion has not cooled after that, that is when you will be able to learn the Crane Dance." "No matter what it takes..." "I will make my Drum Dance unbeatable compared to the Crane Dance." "I never know what you're thinking." " What are you doing?" " Aren't you angry at all?" "After all you've been through, how can you still learn from the Mistress!" "What else can I do?" "It angers me, but the Mistress is still stronger than me." "Remember what the Mistress said?" "It is not the strong who survive, but the survivors who are strong." "Bu-Yong...!" "Swallow your anger and just trust me." "For now, we must learn all that we can." "Everything else can wait." "Don't you agree?" "When the Mistress said you weren't advancing because your mind is elsewhere, she was right." "What are you saying?" "It seems you can tell it is the Minister just by the sound of his footsteps." "Go after him." "He looks weary and troubled." "If you don't want to, do you want me to go?" "Mu-Myung!" "He said he was prepared to do anything." "Then nothing would stop him from becoming a Gisaeng-Husband." "Enough." "That is the only way he can keep you and you can keep your art." "What about what he will lose?" "I don't want that." "I don't want that for him more than I want him for myself." "Listen to me!" "You want to be my Gisaeng-Husband?" "Impossible!" "Let go of me." "Mu-Myung is, so why can't I?" "Let go of me this instant!" "Stop being a courtesan and listen to me!" "Can't you see my heart being broken?" "I've been working at the Gyobang for a long time now, but this heart..." "This heart always belonged to you." "A Gisaeng-Husband must comb his wife's hair and send her to another man." " How can you want that?" " If not, how can I ever have you?" " Think about it, let's..." " No." "I don't want to." "I tell you I'll be understanding!" "I won't be jealous!" "That's not why I don't want to." "I don't need a Gisaeng-Husband!" "Gae-ddong!" "I..." "I'm pregnant." "What?" "I'm pregnant with my lover's child." "Is it true?" "I asked you if you are pregnant!" "You... you stupid girl!" "Silly wench!" "What did I tell you?" "I told you that for ten days after your period you must not spend the night!" "You didn't listen and look what happened!" "Who's is it?" " Don't you know whose it is?" " How frustrating!" "Say something!" "Aren't you going to say something?" "Do you want me to die, you cursed girl?" "Miss Geum-Choon!" "What are you doing?" "Stay out of this." "This is Gyobang business." " She's my daughter!" " I told you to stay out of this!" "If she loses her baby because of you, will you take responsibility?" " So what if she loses it?" " That's right!" "What is the good of a baby born of a courtesan?" "Don't you dare say that!" "Do you know who this child is?" "It is of royal blood!" "Related to the King!" "What are you talking about?" "Related to the King?" "Are you saying that she had the King's favor?" "Well, if she had the favor of the King's relative, isn't that the same thing?" "The King's relative?" "You...!" "You mean..." "Lord Byuk Gae-Soo's child?" "Of course, you wench!" "The Gyobang Master told me... that if the child is truly of royal descent, he is of noble blood." " That's the law!" " Is that true?" "That is correct." "The King's seed cannot be left unrecognized." "There have been courtesans who have been made second wives because of this." "Everyone hear that?" "So from now on, don't mistreat my Gae-Ddong because she was born a slave." "Understand?" "What took you so long?" "I thought my eyeballs were going to pop out from waiting!" "Oh you adorable little thing!" "I like it when you're coy with me!" "Why are you playing so hard to get today?" "Do you want to see your beloved's head cracked?" "My beloved?" "Who's that?" " Eng-Moo...!" " I picked the wrong man." "What are you saying?" "If I have put myself before him when he came down to Song-Do, he would have chosen me over that silly slave wench Gae-Ddong!" "Wh... what are you saying?" "I should be the one that's pregnant!" "Do you want a child?" "Shall we make one tonight?" "Do you think I'm crazy?" "What is the use of having your child?" "All it is going to be is a slave born of a courtesan!" "You want Myung-Wol to entertain?" "You know that she is busy practicing for the royal banquet...!" "Of course I know that." "But it was a request from some noblemen from Hyang Chon City." "It was hard for me to refuse them." "Is that so?" "Let's leave the entertaining to the other courtesans, and have Myung-Wol just perform one piece with Maestro Eom-Su." "I understand." "It will be as you ask." "Where is that Myung-Wol?" "She's choosing her instrument's strings in the next room with the Maestro!" "You are so impatient, my Lord!" "It is because I am embarrassed to make our esteemed guest wait so long." "Here now...!" "Why are you using me as an excuse?" "Who was the fellow that was so excited to hear the most renowned courtesan perform?" "I am Myung-Wol." "Look at you...!" "Have you fallen in love already?" "That girl..." "looks familiar." "I've seen her before." "Where was it that I saw her?" "Probably in your dreams." "Fairies must look like her." "It's not like that." "That's right." "I was wondering where I've seen her before..." "But she resembles someone that I know." "Someone you know?" "And who is that?" "It's all in the past." "A story that is over twenty years old." "Shall we continue the performance?" "Or shall we..." "Oh no..!" "Forgive us for offending you, Maestro." "Please continue your performance." "No, no." "I am more interested in your story than the performance." " But...!" " So, what happened twenty years ago?" "I spent some time with a courtesan here when I visited Song-Do twenty years ago." "I must have misled her even though I intended for a casual affair." "I almost had a great misfortune." "How did this misfortune come about?" "No, that is enough for my tale." "Please continue your performance." "And what was that courtesan's name?" "I said that was enough." "Please tell us." "You never know, if the story is interesting enough," "I may be your bedmate tonight." "Why?" "Do you want to share my bed one night and then beg me to spend the rest of my life with you too?" "Is that what happened?" "So what did you do?" "The most beautiful woman in the nation asked you to spend eternity with her." "What did you do?" "He discarded her." "What else could he do?" "He came to Song-Do to study the classics but ended up getting a courtesan pregnant." "It would have been unbearable for him." " Jin-Yi!" " Did you tell her to abort the child?" "But she did not listen to you?" "So then, did you give her poisonous herbs to take?" "You..." "Who are you?" "Was it Hyun-Geum?" "Is the renowned Gayageum performer Hyun-Geum the same silly courtesan in your story?" "How..." "How do you know that?" "Are you inside?" "Come outside." "Go to your mother." "She's looking for you." "About what happened this afternoon..." "Pretend it never happened." "Sir!" "Your father will be coming." "What did you just say?" "That heartless man is coming where?" "I will chase him away." "I won't let him enter here!" "Your mother has been waiting for him for twenty years!" " But...!" " Without that hope, your mother would not be alive now." "Prepare yourself, and greet your father together with your mother." "Don't let your emotions show." "Be courteous and submissive." "No matter what, do not break your mother's heart." "I won't forgive you if you do." "Is that Jin-Yi?" "Is that you?" "Did you hear that your father is coming here?" "It seems that he hasn't forgotten about you." "He said that he's come here just to see you." "Are you happy?" "You and I..." "I thought he had forgotten about us both." "It broke my heart that you have never met your father." "I wonder if he'll recognize me?" "I've gotten so old..." "What are you saying?" "You're lovely." "You're like a new bride." "Dreadful girl...!" "Do you like teasing your old mother?" "What did you do now?" "It's been twenty five years." "It's been twenty-five years since the capital's most renowned musician followed a young courtesan he fell in love with to Song-Do." "Cut off your heartstrings, or stop doing such mad things." "Are heartstrings like musical strings?" "You cannot cut them with a sharp knife." "Crazy fellow...!" "I named her Jin-Yi." "It is a lovely name." "Will you stop by from time to time?" "If something happens to the child, will you help her?" "Of course." "Of course I must." "Have you lost weight?" "I've aged." "You are still beautiful." "Forgive me." "You... you must hated me." "Would you believe me if I said no?" "But..." "I think that now..." "Now I can stop hating you." "Sir...!" "I thought you might need this." "Rascal..." "It was you that told his Lordship to meet my mother, wasn't it?" "And it was you that told him what to say to my mother?" "Jin-Yi...!" "You should not have brought him to her." " But look at how happy she is." " But what about you, Sir?" "Don't worry about me." "I'm immune now to heartbreak." "What... what is this love you believe in, sir?" "It is..." "Adagio." "It isn't Allegro, nor is it Lente." "It can be boring because it's slow, but it's steady and everlasting." " Sir...!" " In this fast-paced world we live in... perhaps it won't be such a bad thing to have a slow-tempo such as Adagio?" "But you..." "Don't have this kind of love." "When you can end your love in your own terms, end it." "And after you end it, go after the kind of love you can keep." "I will be back again." "Take care of your mother." "So you are going to take Kim Jung-Han?" "That is the only way to bring Myung-Wol to you." "No need for that." "I told you I'm done with her." "What about all that passion?" "Bu-Yong!" "If you're done with her, you must also stop hating her." "What are you trying to say?" "Your Excellency..." "Deep hatred..." "is another name for deep love." "Why do you allow yourself to succumb to such emotions?" "What shall we do?" "Shall I go to Gae-Sung?" "Or...?" "What do you want?" "Your Excellency..." "You are not one to offer such charitable acts for nothing." "Of course." "What is it, my Lord?" "It is a message for us to hurry preparations for the festivities to celebrate His Majesty's 20 year reign." "His Majesty wishes us to perform the Drum and Crane Dance at the festivities?" " That is correct, Mistress." " The Drum Dance...?" "So your Mistress has taken out that old musical score...!" "Why has she taken that old book out?" "It must be her intent to have a real battle?" "Isn't it your intent, rather than hers?" "The Minister has not yet informed the city of the Crane Dance." "And your Mistress is not capable of using an incomplete dance as ammunition." " So..." " I spoke to Lord Byuk Gae-Soo and informed His Majesty of the two dances." "You are truly an outrageous girl." "That is how I differ from my Mistress." "I must return to the city in three days." "I have heard the news." "It is good that I will no longer trouble you." "You will forget me easily." "So it is over?" " Are you satisfied?" " Yes, my Lord." "Were you looking for an accompaniment to your flute?" "What about my Gayageum?" "What brings you here?" "If I told you that my yearning heart made me cross thousands of li to see you, will you mock me?" "That is enough." " My Lord!" " I cannot give you anything." "Did I ever ask you for anything?" "I cannot give you any rewards, let alone my heart..." "I cannot even give you one shred of my heart." " My Lord!" " Forgive me." "But..." "I have never learned how to tell a lie." " So stop your futile hopes..." " What if I give you twice what you lost?" "The heart that you cannot offer me..." "I will give you two of mine in return." "Just don't push me away." "The one day..." "just as the morning dew wets the clothes, perhaps little by little..." "your heart will come to me." "I hope for this." "My Lord!" "Forgive me." "I almost committed a grave crime against you." " I have offended you." " If you leave, you will truly offend me!" "Forgive me." "Do you need an opponent?" "Perhaps it will help you gather your thoughts." "Opponent?" "It was never an even match." "I have been defeated by your skills." "Perhaps that is so for archery." "The true target of my arrow was not that board, but you, my Lord." "And should I not have made you my target too?" "You cannot bed a woman you don't love, so how can Myung-Wol do the same?" " You...!" " Have I offended you?" "I came to speak to you, but accidentally..." "Have you thought of any way you can have her and keep her at your side?" "By your drooped shoulders, it is evident that you were unable to make him yours." "In that case, we must forget about performing the Drum Dance at the banquet." "I will allow only the Crane Dance to be performed so that you are put in your place." "But... no need for that." "Excellency...!" "You taught me that hate is another name for love." "I must reward you for that." "Then I will continue to think of ways you can take Myung-Wol for yourself." "No." "No need for that." "I have already devised a plan and it doesn't involve you." "First, I will make her mine and show her love." "Only then will she truly feel the pain of the hatred that I will pour upon her." "Enter the courtesans!" "He has troubled all of you to see me off even though it is unnecessary." "How can you say that?" "There is nothing we can say or do to return our gratitude for your work at the music library." "The least we can do is bid you farewell." "It is I that is grateful." "Without the help of the courtesans and the musicians, how could I have organized all the music in such a short amount of time?" "Thank you for your praise, my Lord." "Is the Crane Dance's musical score the last one to be noted?" "I bid you to complete it in due course so as to advance our nation's dance culture." "We will do as you ask, my Lord." "You look like you're in a good mood, Mistress!" "It is because everything is as it should be." "At least she's no longer silly." "Myung-Wol has learned how to control her own emotions." " Let us rest a bit here." " Yes, my Lord." "Bring me some wine!" " Look here!" " I must give a toast." "A toast to my sad and defeated love..." "Does she think she's heading into battle with that horse?" "How many times must she forego the palanquin to ride that horse!" "You want us to go to the city first?" "I will follow shortly, so do not worry about me." "It is hopeless." "It is no use." "How was it?" "Did you like my reward?" "That... that!" "Is this "two minds, one heart"?" "For some reason," "I thought I would meet you if I came here." "Why have you returned?" "I forgot something, so I had to come back." "Then you should have gone to the library." "If you forgot something, someone would have..." "I didn't forget to take anything." "I took something that I shouldn't." "If I asked you to be my friend, would you?" "If I asked you to be my friend, regardless of male or female, then we could be together, reading poetry and sharing our minds." "That would be so." "But.. that is not possible for me." "I would rather lose you than be your friend." "I fell in love for the first time." "And... never again." "That is why..." "I cannot take my heart with me." "The heart that loved a woman so deeply." "That heart..." "I will leave here." "Look at me." "Let me look at your face." "It's the last time." "I don't want to leave with your back as my last image." "Do you want that to be my last image of you?"
