"SRT softsub created by Ahoxan on:" "Fri Aug 1920:01:582011." "Episode 7." "I... appoint Kim Jong Seo." "Second State Councilor." "The State Council with Kim Jong Seo as the leader shall assist the Crown Prince." "That is my bequest." "Do NOT Steal our subs or we'll hunt you down!" "As long as this Kim Jong Seo is alive, royal clan members cannot meddle with government any longer!" "Anyone who goes against this will have to pay for it with his life!" "Kim..." "Jong..." "Seo..." "If you want it so bad," "I will kill you with my own hands." "I told you never to show yourself before my eyes again." "But why won't you ever leave my head?" "This late..." "Why are you doing this again?" "You pushed me away so coldly." "And when I am trying to forget you..." "I don't want to deceive myself any longer." "I can't pretend I don't love you any longer." "Now..." "I will no longer push you out of my heart." "Since I came all this way because I could not restrain myself, now, even if you tell me no," "it can't be helped." "What is... your name?" "Is there a reason why you cannot tell me?" "It's Yeo Ri." "Yeo Ri..." "Yeo Ri, she says." "Staying here (by yourself)..." "Aren't you scared?" "Can I... leave you assured (of your safety)?" "Yes." "There are so many things I want to ask you, but since it is late, I will leave for now." "I will return soon." "Teacher!" "I can see you again, right?" "Even if you tell me not to come," "I will come no matter what." "Agasshi!" "Who... was he?" "What?" "!" "Kim Seung Yoo?" "When you have a talk of marriage going on with the household of Lord Chief Scholar..." "What are you going to do?" "If His Excellency or My Lady finds out about this...!" "If you continue this, you'll seriously get into big trouble!" "Don't even think about catching a glimpse of him again!" "Yeo Ri." "Yes." "He said he would not deceive himself any longer." "What?" "!" "I don't want to deceive myself either." "Agasshi!" "Your Majesty, Second State Councilor Kim Jong Seo and Royal Secretariat Scribe Kim Seung Yoo are here." "Show them in." "Since Second State Councilor's son is going to assist me," "I can't feel any more secure." "All he's done so far is teaching at the Royal Academy." "So, he is a greenhorn in every way." "If he does wrong, please do not spare him but reprimand him." "Brother-in-law, I heard that you also know Scribe Kim very well." "Yes." "He is my old friend, but truly he's a man without any fault." "Even though I cannot be sure, he will be a solid assistant to you." "You are overpraising me." "Had Father been here, he would have been very happy to have today's meeting." "Your Majesty..." "The predecessor king said he would watch over you even from his grave." "Proceed without any fear." "This Kim Jong Seo will give my life to guard you, Your Majesty." "Thank you very much, Second State Councilor." "What brings you here, Uncle?" "I was coming to greet you, Your Majesty." "Are you on your way to the Audience Hall?" "Grand Prince, why don't you refrain from visiting the palace?" "Royal clan members ought to voluntarily refrain from palace visits." "So you can avoid the accusation that you're seeking to become the king's regent." "Are you saying an uncle... cannot be solicitous toward his nephew?" "I will do my best to govern the nation with the help of the State Council." "Please do not worry about me but just look on, Uncle." "Please, let's continue on our way." "The world is Kim Jong Seo's." "He dares to block Grand Prince's palace visits." "This is an unheard of atrocity!" "An old man who's going to be dead pretty soon is not even thinking about what's going to happen after his death and..." "That is why this is an even bigger problem." "What do you mean by that?" "The Second State Councilor will try to clean up the king's surroundings before he dies." "What would that be if it is not trampling on royal clan members who can pose threats like the Grand Prince." "Your Excellency, we can't just sit still and die!" "Since we've spared no pains to prepare for this "party," we'd better hurry and throw it." "In order to throw a party, we will need helping hands." "Finally it's time to get some use out of them..." "Would it be okay to tell the Chief Scholar?" "He's already in the same boat." "Why hide it from him?" "Are you going back to the Hall of Worthies?" "Yes." "Kissing a certain person's behind, you even advanced to the Royal Secretariat." "But I guess it was, after all, a rotten rope that you seized onto." "Becoming an instrument for a royal clan member eyeing the throne..." "Isn't that like smearing crap on your own face?" "Remain as a reputable scholar." "You do not need to worry about my future." "Keep your distance from Grand Prince Sooyang!" "This is my ultimatum before you lose your life." "What brings all of you here?" "It's been a long time since I last saw you all together." "I am sorry for having worried you." "Worries, my ass." "I already knew you'd make a comeback in a government official's garb." "You did worry too, and now you're just bluffing." "Royal son-in-law, shut up." "Why don't you just make sure that you don't skip the Royal Academy lecture in a little while?" "The only negative thing about being a royal son-in-law... is having to attend the Royal Academy lectures." "Why are you wearing such a serious face today?" "He always pretends to be that type." "It's good to see you trio still going around like one body." "Even if you go on your separate paths, you should guard your friendship with your lives." "I have business to take care, so I'll be leaving first." "Uh huh." "I sense it, I do." "Sense what?" "The special intuition only married men have." "That punk... is on his way to date a woman." "I guess you can't help laughing because you're doing an uncharacteristic thing." "You are looking in the mirror..." "The sun will set in the east." "What on earth do you plan to do?" "You even lied to My Lady that you're staying in the temple for several days to pray." "On top of it, he thinks you're a lady-in-waiting!" "When I see him again, I will tell him." "Yeo Ri is my name." "Stop abusing it!" "I thought you were not coming." "I came late on purpose." "I had to make you anxious so you'd realize how welcome my sight is." "I got a new post in the palace and was kept busy for days." "I fretted so much because I couldn't come despite my heart." "How did you come to stay at the temple?" "This is a place..." "where I used to come often even before." "Aren't your parents... alive?" "The truth is..." "I shouldn't have asked you." "And how are you doing (money-wise)?" "You dress like a noble lady rather than a lady-in-waiting." "So I thought you were comfortably well-off." "I am sorry (for the misunderstanding)." "You pretend to be so well-behaved." "You seem like someone else." "Where is that woman who boldly stepped onto a man's back to mount a horse?" "Where did you learn the letters?" "During the lessons, I saw that you were rather well learned." "By looking over shoulders." "Considering you learned over the shoulders, you are pretty good." "Your Highness Princess!" "What?" "Professor Kim Seung Yoo will begin the lesson." ""Ha Ah Shim and Wi Ni Shim..."" "I exchanged my heart with yours." "And only now, we realize how deeply we've been missing each other." ""Moon Se Gan and Jeong Shi Ha Mool,"" ""Jik Gyo Saeng Sa Sang Uh."" "What on earth is affection?" "I ask the world." "And I will answer..." "That which makes us unhesitatingly grant life and death to each other." "That is what affection is." "The clothes really become you." "Now that I've taken off formal attire, I feel so much more light-hearted." "Wasn't it around here somewhere?" "You have a very good sense of direction." "Attention!" "Grand Prince Sooyang is here!" "Salute him!" "They are very well trained hands." "You can use them as you wish." "They are waiting for your order." "Why has your face become so clouded?" "Are you so sorry to see me go?" "Don't tease me." "On the Princess's birthday..." "I have to escort His Majesty to her house." "As soon as I am done with that duty" "I will return." "Yes." "Stop teasing me and go now." "You are going to fall down." "Look where you are going." "Salsaengboo:" "Death List." "These are the VIPs to invite to the "party."" "Kim Jong Seo." "Grand Prince Anpyong." "Min Shin." "We have to eliminate everyone on Kim Jong Seo's side." "With a hundred or so private soldiers, how can we be their match?" "They have the military and inner palace guards under their thumb." "Making a reckless attempt, we might end up being slaughtered instead." "If we cannot dispatch them all on the same day at the same time, everything will be lost." "If even one of them survives, he's going to scamper off to His Majesty and cry treason..." "How about Your Excellency calling them all in?" "They won't come so easily just because they are called." "If we cannot kill them all together, we will have to strike down Kim Jong Seo first." "The rest are riff raff." "They will be running around harum scarum." "Kim Jong Seo?" "Easier said than done." "Whether in the palace or in his house, he always has people following him around." "I will personally pay him a visit." "Golly!" "Who on earth would imagine that Kim Jong Seo would be slain by the Grand Prince in his own house?" "Why are you grinning like that at a man's fan?" "Are you coming back from the temple now?" "Yes, Father." "Since you've seen your future daughter-in-law returning home late at night, even if you want to take back the offer of marriage, I won't have any excuse, in-law." "Don't say that." "What are you doing?" "Is this fan such a big deal?" "When you've just met even your future father-in-law, how can you do this?" "Give it to me!" "You said you would tell him today." "Your station - a lady-in-waiting." "Your name" " Yeo Ri." "How long are you going to meet him, lying to him?" "I tried to tell him... but whenever I am before him, I become tongue-tied." "I don't know what to do myself." "Please don't see Kim Seung Yoo any more." "About this fan, too..." "What are you going to do if My Lady sees it?" "Don't do that and just give it here!" "Kim Seung Yoo?" "Did you break your promise of never seeing Kim Seung Yoo again?" "I'm sorry." "Did you tell him that you are my daughter?" "No." "He thinks I am a lady-in-waiting who has left the palace." "Do you..." "love him?" "Does he also think of you in that way?" "Perhaps..." "Se Ryung, you will soon be married." "Couldn't you spare me from that marriage?" "Do you truly intend to disobey your father?" "It is not that but..." "Oh ho!" "The engagement cannot be broken off, keep that in mind." "If you continue to harbor a different intention," "I will not think of you as my daughter any longer." "The engagement cannot be broken off, keep that in mind." "Why?" "You're not allowed to go anywhere, why are you trying to leave?" "It is the Princess's birthday." "Are you sorry you can't go?" "You always visited her..." "But this time, Miss Se Jung is going." "On the Princess's birthday." "I have to escort His Majesty to her house." "Yeo Ri." "I will just go to the princess's house and come back." "I'll come back as soon as I tell him not to wait for me." "You can't!" "You're not allowed to go anywhere." "What is this?" "Why are you so loud?" "What did you do wrong so I have to run the errand in your place, Unnie?" "What if it's the princess's birthday?" "Why do we have to offer up things like this?" "Se Jung." "Go together to see the Princess?" "Yes." "Unnie has been grounded for days and feeling frustrated..." "I will stay next to her and make sure she goes nowhere else." "I have always wished Her Highness a happy birthday on her birthdays..." "Don't you realize the gravity of the wrong you've committed?" "I almost passed out when I heard it from your father." "I'm sorry." "What is it?" "What is it, Mother?" "No need to know about it." "You must come back as soon as you're done greeting her." "Do you understand?" "Yes." "Do you have to go to that length to see the princess?" "Meet me in front in three, four hours." "Alright." "Your Highness, these are gifts of all colors and shapes from the eight provinces." "Gifts are just gifts." "More importantly, you must make a thorough preparation to welcome His Majesty." "Yes, Your Highness." "Wow, a woman's room... looks like this." "How dare you come in here?" "Since it is your first birthday after our wedding..." "I wanted to give you something." "You mean by sneaking into my room?" "Even after my family became poor, my mother kept them to the end to give to her future daughter-in-law." "I wanted to surprise you, but..." "I ended up being discourteous." "Did you bring them thinking I had nothing to eat?" "My mother prepared these with all her heart." "More or less, it is edible." "When is the D-day?" "The D-day will be, like today, a day when the king visits Princess Kyung Hye's house." "Aim for a day when His Majesty leaves the palace?" "That's right..." "Inside the palace is all under Kim Jong Seo's control." "It will be hard to carry him off there." "After murdering Kim Jong Seo, if we besiege Princess Kyung Hye's house, we can easily seize the king in our hands." "Sit him next to the Grand Prince and make him issue king's orders." "And call in those remaining on the death list." "Those wretches will swarm in at the king's secret orders and will fall dead like the autumn leaves." "Isn't this a perfectly ingenious plan or what?" "That is not the end, though." "After taking Princess Kyung Hye's house, we need an ally who will bring the king to the Grand Prince." "For a Hansung Bureau officer, wouldn't that be possible?" "What is a Hansung Bureau officer doing here?" "I got the mission of checking security around the house before His Majesty arrives." "Have you been well?" "It's even nicer to see you outside the palace." "This is my ultimatum before you lose your life." "Please come in, Your Majesty." ""She" is there too right now." "Who?" "Grand Prince Sooyang's eldest daughter whom this guy is in love with." "You must be happy." "He's wild with happiness, this punk." "Your Majesty, have you been well?" "Please come in." "Do you know..." "Kim Seung Yoo is assisting His Majesty?" "For both of your sake, it will be better not to run into each other." "What use is revealing your true identity this late?" "Please don't make hardsubs from our subtitles." ""She" is in there too right now." "Grand Prince Sooyang's eldest daughter whom this guy is in love with." "Where are you going?" "If you were here, you should have reported to me." "Were you going to leave without seeing me?" "Are you here to see the princess?" "Yes." "Hey, Kim Seung Yoo~!" "Kim Seung Yoo, where are you?" "!" "Have a safe trip back." "I will be there in a few days." "Teacher." "I will not be at Seung Bup Temple for a while." "What are you saying?" "I have some business that will take me away." "Where on earth?" "I will tell you when I return." "Are you... saying you will disappear again?" "It won't take that long." "I will be back in the near future and come to you." "Truthfully?" "Hey, Scribe Kim, have you gone off to somewhere?" "Take care of yourself." "I will." "Now leave the room!" "Unnie put me up to it." "Why only to me...?" "How can you be so full of excuses when you promised to be next to her and then came home separately?" "Do you need more corporal punishment to repent?" "Sit down." "Did you meet that Kim Seung Yoo again?" "Were you happy to disobey your parents and to see him?" "I'm sorry." "Nothing to be sorry about." "Anyway, you won't be able to see each other again." "If there is one person in this world who you shouldn't end up with that would be Kim Seung Yoo." "Mother!" "Loving the flesh and blood of one who cornered your father into a hard place..." "Are you in your right mind?" "What do you mean by that?" "His father, Kim Jong Seo, wants to blot out our family." "If you don't care whether your parents and siblings vomit blood and die, then go straight to his house and become the Kim family's ghost (daughter-in-law)." "A lady-in-waiting?" "The woman who pretended to be the princess was a lady-in-waiting?" "See?" "Didn't I say this punk got himself a woman?" "So, are you going to marry that lady-in-waiting or what?" "Even if she's a lady-in-waiting who has left the palace... will it be alright?" "I will have to make it alright." "So... let's say that's okay with you." "But your father who has His Majesty under his thumb, would he accept a mere lady-in-waiting?" "Hey... you...!" "What is it that you want to say?" "The one who pushed a dismissed official up to the position of a scribe at the Royal Secretariat must be your father too." "Since you have the Second State Councilor watching your back, you must be scared of nothing." "This jerk... really!" "Shin Myun!" "Watch your words." "Sir." "What?" "Grand Prince Sooyang is looking for you." "And you!" "Have you decided to line up with Grand Prince Sooyang?" "Why?" "Can't I?" "You!" "Why are you being like this?" "!" "?" "His father, Kim Jong Seo, wants to blot out our family." "Don't even dare to dream about it." "Your father and his father are now enemies that cannot live together under the same sky." "I saw you earlier today." "Since when..." "Since when have you been seeing Kim Seung Yoo again?" "Are you saying you were at the princess's house?" "Do you really not know that you and he must never meet again?" "That we must not see each other..." "Who has determined that?" "Was it predetermined by heaven or by man?" "You and I... will soon get married." "I already know about it." "So you know..." "But still, how can you with Seung Yoo..." "Just as you're Teacher's friend," "I thought you could be my friend too." "But I never saw you as my future husband, Officer Shin." "You already knew all about this?" "Nothing will change just because you pass out." "You must be tormented." "Fighting with a friend over a woman..." "It's not conducive to a peaceful state of mind." "No, Sir." "She's just... a friend's woman." "No." "She is your woman to whom you'll get married soon." "Isn't that right?" "In the near future, I am going to kill Kim Jong Seo." "There will be a coup on the day His Majesty next visits Princess Kyung Hye's house." "What... is it that you're saying?" "If we do not chop off Kim Jong Seo's head first, your family and mine will, in not so distant a future, get slaughtered." "But Seung Yoo... is my friend!" "You have three reasons (to killl him)." "First of all, you have to save your father." "Second, you have to guard your woman." "And you have to help your friend rest in peace." "That's the last reason." "If his father dies and he survives by himself, would life mean anything to him?" "Gently closing his eyes with a friend's hands... that is what a true friend would do for Kim Seung Yoo." "Do you think you can point your sword at Kim Seung Yoo?" "Keep your distance from Grand Prince Sooyang!" "This is my ultimatum before you lose your life." "When this family's life and death depend on your hand, is it so hard to make up your mind?" "Why on earth are you taking a part in something like this?" "I have the confidence to manage this nation Joseon better than anybody else." "I, Shin Sook Joo, will make Grand Prince Sooyang into a great king." "But your father who has His Majesty under his thumb, would he accept a mere lady-in-waiting?" "Father, I am home." "Come on in." "Father is going to find you a wife." "Why are you so aghast?" "I'm sorry." "But marriage..." "I'm still..." "I will find a daughter of an upright noble family for you." "I already have someone... in my heart." "Ah, this guy..." "Which family does she belong to?" "She is not from the nobility." "Wha..." "What?" "!" "Is she a gisaeng?" "No, Father." "Well then...?" "Father." "This is just a drunkard's gibberish." "You, come out." "Father, I..." "I said to come out." "Even when you engaged in tom-foolery with the princess and father had to resign," "I wasn't this disappointed in you!" "Do not stir up this family any longer with your womanizing." "If you create a havoc one more time," "I will not think of you as my brother any more!" "To strike down Kim Jong Seo the last remaining problem is a bait." "What excuse will you use to set your foot in Kim Jong Seo's house..." "That's what I am asking." "If you don't have a really good excuse, it will be hard to set even one foot inside." "The last remaining problem is a bait." "He thinks..." "I am a lady-in-waiting who has left the palace." "Do you..." "love him?" "Does he also think of you in that way?" "Perhaps..." "I've heard from your Mother." "You've met with Kim Seung Yoo again." "I'm sorry." "Even knowing that his family and ours are at odds with one another, can't you still change your heart?" "After hearing that from Mother, my heart has been really heavy." "Truly can't the relation between you and the Second State Councilor be improved?" "It is too late to turn it around." "Se Ryung." "I am worried that your heart might be broken." "Try as I might," "I cannot erase him from my heart." "Even if it takes many years only if your relation can improve..." "I will wait and wait." "Kim Seung Yoo," "I wonder whether he will feel the same even after finding out that you're my daughter." "I believe in him." "Didn't he try to save me at the cost of his life?" "That's how it is." "You two have been growing such deep feelings toward each other..." "I lost." "I will make another marriage proposal to the Second State Councilor's household." "Father." "In return, until I persuade the Second State Councilor, you must not reveal your true identity to Kim Seung Yoo." "Do you understand?" "I will keep that in mind." "Kim Seung Yoo, still thinks you're a lady in-waiting, right?" "Yes." "What does he call you?" "That is..." "Yeo Ri's name..." "Yeo Ri?" "Did you use your handmaid's name?" "Just go to sleep for now." "Father." "Because you are my father," "I feel so fortunate." "On my way to the Royal Academy," "I'm stopping by to say hello." "You are most welcome." "So..." "How's Noonim doing?" "Maybe because of the birthday party, she might have overexerted herself." "Is she ill?" "That's not it." "She just seems low on energy." "Look here!" "Isn't anyone out there?" "Are you looking for me?" "I must go to see Noonim." "Father, because you are my father," "I feel so fortunate." "Master, it's Woon." "Come in." "There is news from the palace." "Soon the king will be leaving the palace." "The D-day will be, like today, a day when the king visits." "Princess Kyung Hye's house." "It really is unlike you to do embroidery." "You're going to give it to him?" "That's why you should not daydream while you are embroidering." "I've seen many who mangled their fingers thinking about men in particular." "I wanted to make this for Teacher." "This won't do." "I will have to ask Mother for new fabric." "Are you going to go to Chung Poong Kwan (the Blue Wind Pavilion)?" "After the sunset," "I shall head toward Kim Jong Seo's house." "One in ten thousand, should something bad happen to you tonight, My Lord..." "What should I and our children..." "I am not on the way to die." "My Lady, please keep a tight control over the household and take care of the children." "I will." "Thank you." "Kim Seung Yoo," "What are you going to do with him?" "I will have to wipe out his children as well." "Killing just Kim Jong Seo won't do." "Is Se Ryung going to be alright?" "All the more reason to kill him." "How will she love the dead?" "If nothing else, for my daughter's sake," "I will get rid of Kim Seung Yoo, no matter what." "I will get rid of Kim Seung Yoo, no matter what." "Heaven mandates who becomes the king." "Not man." "This Sooyang wanting to become the king..." "Does that seem like a vain desire on my part to you, Second State Councilor?" "Why on earth is father trying to do something so horrendous?" "What wrong has that family done..." "Shut your mouth!" "A senseless girl!" "Tonight, there will be a cataclysmic event." "I have chosen my side." "I wish everyday would be just as peaceful as today." "So that both His Majesty and the princess can smile so broadly." "Blood?" "She ran away!" "We have to find her before she escapes!" "The bait has already been cast." "To take another's life, I will have to risk my life as well." "As of today," "I will sever the persistent evil ties connecting my destiny with Kim Jong Seo's."
