"[This drama is set during the Joseon Era under the rule of a fictitious king.]" "[All characters and events are fictitious and have no historic basis. ]" "Episode 15" "Miss..." "What happened, Miss?" "I heard that you disappeared on your way to the sick ward." "I was extremely worried." "I passed out, so I received treatment somewhere." "What?" "Are you okay now?" "Yes." "But Seol..." "When I was unconscious," "I remembered events about my past." "Events from the past?" "Yes, the past." "Before, when I received the divine spirit," "during that time, I passed out." "You remember too, right?" "W-what?" "I was not there, so I don't really..." "Is that so?" "Then, when did you start following mistress?" "Was it before I received the divine spirit or afterwards?" "I told you already." "I was sold to another owner and I ran away." "That is when I met Mistress and Miss." "From then on..." "Seol." "Yes?" "Why are you lying to me?" "What?" "I... clearly saw you." "When I was being taken out of the grave, you were there watching me." "Then, are you telling me that child was still alive?" "T-That is correct." "Even after receiving an evil spirit she was still sane and alive." "This is the first time I've seen a shaman survive." "That child's divine power must be extraordinary." "If it weren't for these events, she would have been useful by my side." "It is a waste of her divine power." "So, was she sent to the sick ward?" "Well...." "The truth is..." "I am sorry, but I have a request." "A request?" "Because I accepted the spirit, it is very angry." "If I do not dispel the anger quickly, not only I," "but everyone who has brought me to Eunwol Pavilion will suffer from that anger." "T-Then... what is your request?" "The spirit in my body needs some time to release her anger and calm down." "Please, I ask you to allow me to stop at Seongsucheong and pray." "So, you allowed her to go?" "The girl who went into Eunwol Pavilion and the girl I saw today were two different people." "If you provoke a strong shaman, it is disaster for three generations for one's family." "But, what will you do if she escapes?" "As for that, do not worry." "I have someone following her, so there will be no problem." "Whatever happens, to make sure there are no problems, you will have to end this well." "I will humbly obey your order." "I am sorry, Miss." "I do not have time, Seol." "Ask for forgiveness later." "You need to tell me the truth as you know it." "What did Mistress say?" "What exactly did she say that you kept your lips sealed from me for eight years?" "His Excellency and your mother, in order to save Miss who had a divine illness, gave you medicine and agreed to remove you from the grave later." "They gave me the medicine to save me?" "Submitting their daughter as a Crown Princess candidate after having a divine illness was treason, so they had no choice but to hide your illness." "In order to do that, they had no choice but to make you dead to the world." "Then," "Father knew that I was alive?" "Yes." "In order to save his family and reputation, it was a choice he had to make." "That's why no one was to know that you were still alive." "Then, the fact that I had a divine illness is true." "That is what I thought." "But..." "But?" "From what Miss said and what I felt..." "It didn't seem like you had divine powers, so I asked Jang ahjumma." "You asked her?" "She said it was because your powers had not developed yet." "It's because you could not control your powers yet." "It's because you lost your memory." "That's how she answered." "To my family..." "At least to my family, you could have told them I was still alive." "If I did that, she said your life would be in danger." "By telling my family, my life would be in danger?" "Yes." "There were many things that I doubted, but each time, Ahjumma said" ""Do not try to understand."," ""Knowing less is the way to live."." ""If you want to protect Miss' life, keep your mouth shut."." "I'm sorry, Miss." "Other than keeping my mouth shut, I could not do anything else." "But Seol..." "Isn't it strange?" "What is?" "I don't remember getting the divine spirit." "What?" "Mistress did not give me the divine spirit." "So what...?" "If you do not receive the divine spirit, you cannot be a shaman." "Even so, Mistress still registered me as a shaman of Seongsucheong." "On top of that, I was made a talisman and sent to the king's palace." "8 years ago," "Mistress was Seongsucheong's state shaman." "The fact that Seongsucheong received great favor from the Queen Dowager was a known one." "Isn't it strange?" "Why was it that when I became the Crown Princess," "I got a divine illness?" "Why was it the state shaman of Seongsucheong who saved me?" " Yeon Woo" " What I thought was divine power turned out to be my memories of the past." "If... it wasn't a divine illness," "What exactly was my illness?" "Why did Mistress save me?" "Did I... really have a divine illness?" "If we ask Jang ahjumma directly..." "No." "We can't." "We can't trust anyone right now." "We must not move carelessly." "At least until the enemy is known." "Is anyone inside?" "What brings His Majesty's attendant all the way out here?" "Is the High Shaman Jang inside?" "High Shaman left yesterday for the mountains to pray." "Pray in the mountains?" "How many days did she say she will be?" "Pray in the mountains..." "She left to pray in the mountains?" "Yes." "Since she took a companion, she said she would be a few days and left." "At such an appropriate time, she has left Seongsucheong." "Instead of being a coincidence, doesn't it seem too suspicious?" "What is wrong, Your Majesty?" "I need to get some fresh air." "Where are you going, Your Majesty?" "I was just... going for a walk." "I will... prepare some hot tea at Gyo Tae Palace." "I had some already." "Then, would you like to take a walk together?" "Just a few days ago, it was cold, but the scent of spring is in the air." "Does Your Majesty think so as well?" "Your Majesty." "Your Majesty." "What did you say, Queen?" "What is wrong?" "I... will wait." "For what?" "Until Your Majesty looks at me," "I will wait however long it will take." "I will not press you to forget that girl." "I heard that the king is the sun and the queen is the moon." "Just how the sun and moon keep their places, when Your Majesty finally sees me, no matter where that is, I will be there." "What is this?" "It is "The Moon that Embraces the Sun"." "The King is the sun and the Queen is the moon." "This phoenix hairpin symbolizes the white moon embracing the red sun." "Therefore, I named it..." ""The Moon that Embraces the Sun"." "The Moon that Embraces the Sun." "The real Crown Princess in my heart is only you, Yeon Woo." "Miss," "I am coming in." "When you dress like this, you are a beautiful young woman." "You're pretty." "Was I ever a boy?" "After you are finished with my request, come to the sick ward." "Let's go." "Yes." "Am I a free man at last?" "His Majesty convinced the ministers to cancel, starting today, the royal command that forbids Prince Yang Myung from going out." "Oh my." "Oh my." "How thankful I am." "Where are you planning to go?" "You... must not go there." "Where do you think I am going that you are detaining me?" "The sick ward." "Weren't you going there?" "As expected, old friends are different." "But, why must I not go?" "Because that child is also His Majesty's person?" "Your Excellency." "Heo Yeon Woo." "If it was her, then that may be why." "But, if it is Shaman Wol," "things are different, aren't they?" "His Majesty likes Wol because she resembles Yeom's sister, but I'm different." "I..." "I just... like Shaman Wol, so, doesn't it make sense to regard her as mine, not His Majesty's?" "Isn't that right?" "Your Excellency, you are a prince!" "That tiresome and useless name." "The freedom to throw it all away if I wish, that is the one thing that His Majesty does not have," "and only I have." "You still haven't found her?" "It is already the fourth day." "Even if she is a criminal, you should put effort into finding her." "So you're saying, to find one runaway shaman, does the whole country have to search for her?" "If a criminal disappeared while being escorted, then the Royal Investigation Bureau should be responsible." "Why are you blaming me who is innocent?" "My Lord." "My Lord." "What is the problem?" "My daughter is dying." "Please help me!" "Wait quietly until the doctor comes." "It has been a long time since he has come here, hasn't it?" "Please send for another doctor or my Goot Soon will die!" "Another doctor?" "If you have money, you can call for one." "A person is dying and what are you doing?" "You're paid by the nation's money, aren't you embarrassed?" "!" "I let you continue because you're a noble but are you going to keep yelling?" "If you're done, get out." "Hurry and leave." "Don't bother a person." "I'm already annoyed because my pension has been cut off." " It's okay." " Please give me food." "Are you hungry?" "Spare me some food." "Straighten your back." "Are you able to breathe?" "This is not just acute gastroenteritis." "This is dry cholera." "Go and bring ginger in cool salt water." "We must make her throw up to clear the airway." "Yes." "Do you know how to do acupuncture?" "Then prepare to treat the Weizhong meridian." "(bladder meridian acupuncture point)" "Yes." "Hold on a little longer." "Soon the pain will..." "Hold her." "Hold her tightly." "Drink this." "You have to drink this." "What are you doing instead of helping?" "We must make her drink this no matter what, so pinch her nose." "Goot Soon." "Goot Soon." "Goot Soon." "You're finally saved." "Goot Soon." "Goot Soon." "Did it come out?" "Although I washed the dirty area," "I wasn't able to remove all of it." "When did you learn medical skills?" "It's not even medical skills." "Confucian healers like me abound." "In the past, my teacher," "Chief Scholar said" ""If you memorize this, you can save the people of the world", so I just read some medical books." "So, my classmates and I, all know basic medical skills." "Your teacher... must have been a very good person." "It is hard to find people like him." "He was a great person." "He was like a father to me who didn't know a father's love and he was my mental and literature teacher." "He was my life mentor." "He was strict and lenient." "Not just to me, a member of the royal family, but he treated everyone fairly and sincerely." "Unexpectedly, it was a very busy day." "Today, you helped many people." "I'm happy to see you again." "Although it must have been hard..." "It must have been painful beyond words..." "Thank you for being alive." "Don't worry." "I won't be coming back again." "I came because I was worried when I heard you went missing." "Seeing you alive and well" "and your ugly face." "Now that I saw everything, it's fine." "Then, take good care of yourself." "Just a moment, My Lord." "Just a moment." "Why are you acting like this?" "Today, because of you, Sir, we received a great amount of help." "I'm sorry, but can't you come back in the future?" "Me?" "Why?" "We are lacking doctors in the sick ward, and they keep getting called away for useless things..." "But," "I am..." "Sir." " Sir." " Sir." "Oh man." "Wherever I go, this popularity of mine" "What am I to do?" "You're the same." "Your Excellency, Prince Yang Myung, as expected, being bright suits you better." "So, was she doing well?" "From what I saw, it seemed like it." "What about her body?" "Did she recover?" "From what I saw, she seemed to be enduring it well." "What about Hyungnim?" "Is he doing well?" "Did you not visit his home before coming back?" "No." "Once the house arrest was lifted, he seemed to be enjoying his freedom." "Woon." "Yes, Your Majesty." "You are hiding something from me." "You were always bad at lying." "Although you are lying to protect me, your eyes betray you." "Hyungnim" "is together with that girl?" "What do you think is the reason that the Royal Inspector went to the King's palace?" "It wouldn't be for the sake of befriending him." "This, this, this... seems suspicious, doesn't it?" "If we asked him the reason, obviously, he will say that he called him regarding the investigation of the former Chief Eunuch." "That is also unusual." "This case should be investigated by the Ministry of Justice." "But the king, for who knows what reason, gave that case to the Royal Investigation Bureau." "It wasn't a crime of treason or crime of the five virtues, yet, he gave the case to the Royal Investigation Bureau." "So definitely, there must be a secret." "He had questions regarding the former king's private funds, so he summoned the former Chief Eunuch to the palace." "But, before he entered the palace, he had committed suicide." "It's not even about sovereignty." "If it is about the private property, it is impossible for anyone to intervene." "Especially if it involves the private funds." "So, the investigation goes to the Royal Investigation Bureau." "Why does Our Majesty have no flaws?" "I really cannot refute anything he has said." "The issue regarding the private funds is probably an excuse." "In reality, he is probably digging up the matter from eight years ago." "For the public, he is pretending to investigate the suicide case, but in reality, he is chasing something else?" "We must have a spy follow Hong Gyu Tae." "I apologize, Your Majesty, but because it happened so long ago, it is difficult to find people involved with the case." "If Your Majesty remembers anyone else," "I will go and investigate them." "If it was curse deadly enough to kill the Crown Princess living in Star Palace, there must have been something different from the past." "Court Lady Noh." "What?" "Find Court Lady Noh." "She was living at Star Palace at the time, educating the Crown Princess." "She will definitely know something." "The night that the Crown Princess got sick and fainted, you must find out exactly what happened." "Furthermore," "Prince Consort who was away travelling has returned." "So if we left anything out while investigating the Crown Princess' death, you must find it again." "I will comply with your request." "Your Majesty, it is Woon." "Come in." "There is movement on the ministers' side." "Did you hear?" "I did." "You must always be on guard and be careful." "I am an official at the Justice Court." "Although my skills are not on par with Swordsman Woon," "I fight well enough to protect myself." "Go find Court Lady Noh who had taught me etiquettes at the time in Star Palace." "She may know something about what happened to me." "I'm counting on you, Seol." "She was really a smart and beautiful person." "The day she left the palace, in front of Star Palace..." "Staring at each other with tears, the two highnesses' figures," "I still see them." "At that time, was there anything that was out of the ordinary?" "For example, was there a change in the maids, was the food different, or did someone pay a visit?" "Please tell me everything you remember." "Well, let me see." "There's nothing really that I remember." "Now that I think about it, that night," "Princess came by to see the Crown Princess." "The Princess did?" "The Crown Princess was the Princess' playmate, so I thought she visited because she was curious about her." "Did she meet with the Crown Princess before going back?" "No, she didn't." "She seemed as though she had a lot on her mind." "For some reason, she did not go inside." "She inquired about the Crown Princess' health and went back immediately." "Let me ask you something." "I'm looking for a court lady who used to work in the palace in the past." "I heard she lived nearby, do you know where?" "The Court Lady?" "She lives at the end of the street." "Over there?" "Yes." "Thank you." "Another innocent life was sacrificed." "I, who was unable to complete your royal command, must be punished, Your Majesty." "How can it be only your fault?" "You, yourself, could have lost your life." "I put everyone into danger, so it is my fault." "That is not correct, Your Majesty." "Now, even you are in danger." "If you want to give up, do not hesitate and tell me now." "I will allow it." "I have already given my life to Your Majesty." "No matter what dangers lie ahead," "I will not stop in the middle of this." "Thank you." "I will never forget your loyalty." "I am humbled by your grace, Your Majesty." "The deeper we dig, it is true that we are trapped." "But one thing has been proven." "Although there is insubstantial, there is an enemy that is alive." "Are you coming from the library?" "I thought I might find a worthwhile topic for our gyeongyeon *(Daily history/philosophy lessons between King and Officials)." "I have gone to check." "So, did you find a topic?" "Fortunately," "I have found an interesting book." "Interesting book?" "I am becoming curious about its content." "Can I hear it?" "Since Your Majesty requests it," "I will recite it as I remember it." "The Chinese proverb "myeong bul sang chal" (wise, but does not dig too deep) and "jik bul gwa gyo" (with integrity but not overly rigid) lead to righteous virtue." "So, if one is intelligent, but does not look for the fault in others, and if one is upstanding, but does not excessively nitpick, it is a beautiful virtue." "What you're saying is don't investigate and cover it up." "Did you understand, Your Majesty?" "It is a great sentence." "But, continuing to cover up one's mistake without correcting it cannot be the way of a noble man." "Rather, being cautious of small-minded elitists that counsel you to dismiss the truth and solely observe reality without action..." "That is the way of a noble man." "However, if one does not consider the consequences and only acts vigorously and childishly, political chaos will ensue." "Who will take responsibility for that?" "Separate vigor and childishness, it's a warning, isn't it?" "Making this a topic for administration to discuss with young scholars will be an extremely appropriate topic." "Tonight, I will make an official statement about it to the administration." "I am humbled by your grace, Your Majesty." "May Your Majesty uphold the virtues of a noble man." "Please do not forget my humble wish." "If you do not stop here, you will be in danger." "The Princess did?" "Yes." "Do you by any chance remember anything?" "Well..." "You, Shaman." "Go to the pharmacy and fetch some medicine." "Yes." "If you dare flirt or act frivolously there and disgrace us," "I won't forgive you." "Understand?" "I will go, so Miss, you stay here." "No." "You have to go somewhere with me." "[Office of Special Advisors Chief Scholar, Heo Young Jae's tomb]" "Father," "it is me, Yeon Woo." "Chief Scholar's daughter, would you like to offer an answer?" "I feel that compared to any maiden in this world, my daughter is the most kind-hearted and wise one." "I'm happy that your embrace reminds me of Brother's." "Sleep well in my arms." "Father, Father, Father." "Father." "Are you alright?" "Yes, Husband." "Because the journey is rugged, it would have been better if you stayed home." "I am the one who insisted on coming." "We are going to see Father, so this much is no trouble at all." "Princess, you are someone who can teach me many things." "What?" "I am?" "You are always bright, so you have the gift of making everyone around happy." "Thank you." "There you go again." "Saying thank you is not necessary between husband and wife." "Instead of me, give your arm to Mother." "Not long ago, after returning from the physician's, she has been depressed." "It seems as if someone else was here." "The smell of incense is still lingering in the air, so it doesn't seem like it was too long ago." "Could it have been Brother Yang Myung who was here?" "Yeom." "Yes, Mother." "Your father... did not die because of a disease." "What?" "Then..." "Your father... committed suicide." "After sending Yeon Woo like that, he was always in agony." "He said he killed Yeon Woo and kept blaming himself." "He was in a great deal of pain." "Yeom, after you married the Princess," "it was as if he had fulfilled his duties." "He suffered from a lingering disease, and then... he killed himself." "He sent his child to heaven before him..." "His heart was slowly rotting away." "That feeling... who would understand it?" "Your Excellency, are you well?" "Not too long ago," "I saw a young woman who looked just like our Yeon Woo." "It couldn't be her, right?" "She was being shunned by everyone." "She had spit and rock thrown at her." "Our Yeon Woo is not suffering a life like that, right?" "Please tell me she isn't." "Tell me our Yeon Woo is in that place with you, peacefully and well." "Your Excellency." "Miss." "It's all because of me." "It's my fault" "that Father died." "Miss!" "I was too young then, so I thought if I died," "I could save everyone." "Instead, if I had said" "I wanted to live or I should have begged him to save me." "Miss, tell them that you're alive now." "In the very least, at least to Madam." "Seol, you did not either." "You said it was to protect me and my family." "I will also do the same." "Behind my death, there is definitely secret." "There is a possibility that my family and His Majesty will all be in danger." "Until the whole truth is uncovered," "Heo Yeon Woo" "must remain a dead person." "Aren't you shamans from Seongsucheong?" "What is the reason you have entered the palace?" "We heard that cries of a ghost was heard at Eunwol Pavilion, so the Queen Dowager ordered us to enter and place a talisman there." "Alright." "You are working hard." "Hold on." "Wait." "Why are you here?" "Excuse me?" "You should be in the sick ward, but why are you here?" "It isn't I who was sent to the sick ward, but the shaman receptacle of misfortune." "Then, you're saying you're not her?" "Yes." "I entered the King's Palace as a talisman for consummation, and the shaman receptacle Wol is at the sick ward." "What?" "Wol..." "Court Lady Jo." "Yes, Your Highness." "Send someone to the sick ward immediately." "Find the shaman named Wol and bring her in front of me." "This matter, no one must know about it." "Yes, Your Highness." "Since you caught my team's grasshopper," "I have no choice but to make you my enemy." "We are playing hit the grasshopper but you caught our team's grasshopper." "From now on, you are our enemy." "You really do not understand what I am saying." "I'm telling you to join the other team and get ready to hit." " Unni." " Noona." "Now, let's start." "Quickly." "Quickly." "Quickly!" "Quickly." "Count." "One, two, three." "Wait!" "Why are you cheating?" "I did no such thing." "Lie after you've grown up more." "Hand it over." "Why?" "Alright, let's switch." "My Lord, why are you doing this?" "My Lord, why are you doing this?" "Your posture when you hold the stick is unsteady," "I thought you were going to fall so I held you." "I had no other intentions, so stop being surprised now." "Your Majesty." "Do not say anything." "Not a thing." "Goodbye." "Let's go home." "Are you okay now?" "What?" "What were you thinking about earlier that made you look so gloomy?" "Then, is that why you called me over?" "After playing with those innocent children, all of the world's anxiety and worries can be brushed aside." "Thanks to you," "I feel much better." "It's not because you played with someone as magnanimous and cool like me?" "Isn't better that you are a shaman?" "I can stay by your side and so I can see your smiling face." "Tomorrow, with this one, should I play hopscotch?" "Give it to me." "Why?" "Do you plan on practicing beforehand?" "No." "It is too pretty to play hopscotch with." "So it can do the worrying for me," "I plan to use it as Hye Woo Suk." "Is that so?" "That is not a bad idea either." "Then this rock... is a gift from me." "Shaman," "I thought I told you to fetch the medicine." "Where were you all this time?" "I will be in soon." "Thank you for the gift." "Have a safe trip home." "Welcome back, High Shaman." "While I was away, did anything happen?" "As soon as you come back, there was a royal command for you to go to the King's Palace." "After tonight's cleansing ritual," "I will enter the palace tomorrow." "Mistress!" "Mistress!" "Seol unni is dressed like a woman." "Father, until I find out the truth about everything, my worries and sadness will temporarily be buried here." "Every step that your daughter takes from now on," "Father, please watch over me." "Are you the shaman named Wol?" "That is correct, but who are you?" "The Queen wants to see you." "So it can do the worrying for me," "I plan to use it as Hye Woo Suk." "What concern do you have that you aren't able to sleep?" "This rock is called "Hye Woo Suk"" "that worries for you." "Hye Woo Suk?" "Thanks for your concern, but..." "Hyungnim." "Why are you so" "reckless?" "Reckless?" "What are you referring to?" "The sick ward." "I heard you go there often." "It's not that I go often." "I go every day." "The woman I love is in a difficult situation." "As a man, how can I stand by pretending nothing has happened?" "Hyungnim, you..." "I told you already." "I do not care about my title as a member of the royal family." "I am prepared to throw it away at any time." "Have you forgotten?" "The royal order to stay away from her, will you defy it?" "Your Majesty!" "Hyungnim!" "Your Highness, the Queen." "Shaman Wol is here." "Pay your respects to Her Highness, the Queen."
