"Brought to you by WITH S2 Written In The Heavens Subbing Squad" "Episode 19" "Performing before His Majesty is the best thing that can happen to an artist." "You must ensure that you are at your utmost loveliness." "You must be careful not to apply too much powder or lipcolor." "A minister serves by advising the King." "An artist serves by performing for him." "When you perform, there must be nothing that is lacking about you." "This banquet is where the future Head Mistress will be selected." "Whoever His Majesty selects as the best performer will become Head Mistress." "So what about it?" "Will you be able to perform?" "You haven't been able to eat well or sleep since Mistress died." "You're not sick or anything, are you?" " Are you sure we can let her perform?" " What are you talking about?" "Performing the Crane Dance at the banquet was the Mistress' last wish!" "That's true..." "You must dance well, Jin-Yi." "You must be lovely and elegant!" "This banquet is being held in exchange for the life of our Mistress!" "You must dance your best and become the Head Mistress!" "Only then will the Mistress be able to rest in her grave." " Have you sent the dance score to the Office?" " Yes, Mistress." "I sent Bu-Young yesterday." "Good." "You have practiced hard." "Just dance as you've been taught." " Do you understand?" " Of course, Mistress." "Now you must cross over that threshold." "This is where the King of our great nation resides." "Like being on the edge of a cliff, or like walking on the tightrope, you must be alert at all times, and never let your guard down." "If you do this, you will step through that gate with much dignity and favor." "You can have His Majesty's tears as your reward." "That will your greatest tribute to your teacher." "First, we will have the performance of the Drum Dance." "The Drum Dance...?" " Why are you so fidgety?" " The dance is a little different...?" "It is different from the dance you've been teaching." "You're right." "How can you be so peaceful?" "His Majesty is looking at the dance score!" "What if he notices the difference?" "It is a wonderful dance." "You are gracious, your Majesty!" "How fortunate!" "His Majesty has not noticed her errors!" "Errors..." "Stop pacing around!" "You're making me dizzy!" "She'll dance well, right?" "She'll be better than the Drum Dance, right?" "Of course!" "In terms of talent, Myung-Wol is better than the Mistress!" "So stop worrying!" "I'm not the one dancing, but why am I so nervous?" "I'm going to wet myself!" " Is it almost five o'clock?" " Almost..." "Then Jin-Yi might be out there now dancing?" "Probably." "Are you happy?" "The child has accepted your last wish, and has gone to the banquet to perform." "Are you still not able to leave this place?" "Are you waiting to see how she'll do?" "But everything will be fine." "So now..." "Forget all your memories of this life..." "Erase all your memories..." "And go in peace..." "What amazing choreography!" "This dance was created by the late Head Mistress Cha Dong-Sun, and completed by the Song-Do Mistress and her student." "Did you say Cha Dong-Sun?" "I know of her." "When I was young, I would sit on my Father's lap to watch her perform." " Baek-Moo...?" " She is the Mistress of the Song-Do Troupe." "Summon her to me." "I will reward her for her efforts." "Mistress Baek-Moo..." "has departed the living, your Majesty." "She is no longer living?" "Oh no...!" "What happened?" "How did she die?" "She was in an accident..." "We have lost a valuable soul." "Your heart must be greatly troubled." "How troubled you must be to lose your teacher in such a way!" "I hope that you will show me a dance that will do honor to her memory." "That will be one way to comfort the soul of your teacher." "You... you are most gracious, your Majesty." "I thought she took her own life!" "You were there, your Excellency, so you should know...?" " She killed her teacher." " What?" "She knew a way to save her teacher's life, but chose to ignore it." "What a cursed girl!" "That is correct." "That is why today's dance is the world's most cursed dance." "Cursed dance...?" "It is a dance that killed her teacher because of her greed for power." "Why have you lost your composure!" "Keep focused!" "Continue your dance!" "What is she doing right now?" "She must have lost her rhythm due to her nerves." "Your dance is false!" "Throw your useless dance book into the flames!" "This dance..." "This dance is the creation of an arrogant and prideful shrew." "It's garbage!" "What must I do?" "What can I do  for you to dance with me again?" "Cursed dance..." "It is a cursed dance that led her teacher to her death." "It is a cursed dance..." "One that led her teacher to her death!" "It is a cursed dance!" "How dare a courtesan ruin the royal banquet!" "She must know that she will pay for this disruption with her life!" "Why isn't anyone moving?" "Seize her this instant!" "What... what an abomination!" "What... what is he doing?" "How shameful!" "How can a Royal Minister... .. break the law in this manner?" "How shameful is this!" "Shame!" "What... what has happened!" "Myung-Wol!" " Don't disturb her." " My Lord!" "Just let her rest." "Your Majesty!" "You must send the soldiers to arrest the Courtesan Myung-Wol!" "We must not let her go unpunished for disrupting your banquet!" "Your Majesty!" "You must also punish Minister Kim Jung-Han!" "He allowed an unstable provincial courtesan to disrupt your banquet." "He deserves death just for this crime." "But how dare he bring dishonor to our status by carrying her out himself?" " What he did was unforgivable!" " That is right, your Majesty!" "We are a nation that places extreme importance on etiquette." "We must not let these two go unpunished." "We must put the courtesan to death, remove Minister Kim Jung-Han from his position and status!" "This way you will proclaim the power and authority of the throne!" "My Lord...!" "When she awakens, send her back to Song-Do immediately." "I do not think His Majesty and his advisors will allow that..." "I will take responsibility for that here." "This will affect you tremendously, my Lord." "She is so wounded that she was unable to complete her performance." "How can I be worse than how she must feel?" "My Lord...!" "Please take care of her." "The Minister Kim Jung-Han is doing penance for his crimes?" "That is correct, your Majesty." "This is Minister Kim Jung-Han's resignation." "Must I discard the Minister Kim Jung-Han?" "What are you doing here?" "I did not know how else I can do penance for my crime." "Do you think that this penance is enough to cleanse you from your crime?" "If you tell me you want me to pay with my life, I will do so." "It was not you who disrupted my banquet." "It was a courtesan." "The only thing I have to do is have her put to death." "You must not, your Majesty!" "I will pay for this crime...!" "Will you abandon me again for a mere courtesan?" "My duty is to protect our nation's artists." "You must not do this, your Majesty." "Your Majesty...!" "How will you accomplish your responsibilities if you will sacrifice yourself for such triviality?" "Your Majesty...!" "If you had asked me to put that courtesan to death," "I would have had to discard you." "I do not want you to lose that heart." "Like you are doing now, ... love my people and protect them." "That is the fastest way you can atone for your crimes." "You are most gracious, your Majesty!" "But do not allow this to happen ever again." "There are many who wish to do you harm." "Do not cause any more commotion." "What brings you here to my house at this hour of the night?" "I came to give you some advice." "Advice?" "Do not bother Myung-Wol any more." " Look here...!" " Don't even go near her!" "Don't you think you are being too presumptuous?" "She is not your wife." "She is a courtesan that I can have at any time if I pay her price." "How far will you go to ruin her?" "Is it not enough that you caused her to ruin the banquet because of your words?" "I wish you'd be more open-minded." "I do not wish to lose a good friend." "Do not... do not disappoint me anymore." "Why don't you be more honest with yourself?" "Yes, you're right." "I have fallen in love for the first time in my life." "If I can be with her..." "If only I can be with her, I would do so." "I have thought it a hundred, no a thousand times." "Now you're being more truthful." "But..." "She will not..." "No..." "She cannot be with me." "That's why..." "That's why I closed my heart and walked away." "Please, I beg you." "I cannot bear seeing her hurt." "If you truly want to pursue her, then do it out of love." "When you can bring peace to yourself just by watching her perform," "Then and only then..." "Pursue her again." "Are you awake?" "Where am I?" "Where else could this be?" "Why am I here?" "Please answer me?" " Myung-Wol...!" " I was..." "I was dancing!" "I haven't memorized the dance yet!" "So why am I here?" "What... what are you talking about?" "Come to your senses!" " I must return and dance!" " It is the middle of the night!" "The banquet is over!" "If I don't memorize the dance, Mistress will slay me!" "She will hurl insults at me!" "She's dead and gone!" "Come to your senses!" "Strange!" "How strange this is!" "He was looking at the score so closely...!" "Why did he not question me at all?" "He is known to have the ability to picture movements based on the scores." "Did he not look at it that closely?" "Can it be...?" "It is late." "You cannot be going to a wine party at this hour." "Where were you going?" "Were you going to the library to review the dance score?" "Come with me." "You are a very clever girl." "It seems you had the artist create another score for you." "Mistress...!" "Was this your weapon to defeat me?" "You were going to use my dance score to dance your own movements," "If His Majesty asked you why your movements were different, you would have said that you changed the movements to make it better." "And you would have given him your dance score." "Am I wrong?" "That's why I told the artist to make another copy of your dance score." "But..." "I could have sworn I raised your dance score to His Majesty..." "Do you think that there is a single place in the palace where I do not have any influence!" "How difficult is switching scores!" "You have underestimated me." "You may have defeated me once, but you will never defeat me again." "What is it?" "My dance was worthy, Mistress." "If my dance was not worthy, I would have been seized from the stage." "You would never have allowed your name to be written on the score." "You may be right." "My dance was worthy, and I performed it at the banquet." "But Myung-Wol did not perform at the banquet." "So?" "I have defeated her." "So give me the position of Head Mistress as you have promised." "If you will not give up your desire to win it by manipulation," "I will not give the position to you." "It was you that told me that those who survive are the strong!" "Forgive me." "Mistress!" "This is all my fault." "I have not taught you well." "The Head Mistress must be an exceptional artist." "She who tries to use manipulation to attain that position cannot have it." "That is what Baek-Moo's death taught me." "Start again..." "Start from the very beginning." "Discard all manipulation and strive for an artist's heart." "Fight a fair fight and achieve victory." "Only then can you become the Head Mistress." "Have a safe journey." "We shall meet again soon." "Will you be alright?" "Maintain your focus and hold on tight to your composure!" "If you do something like this ever again, I will not spare you again!" "Then we will be on our way." "Let us go." " What time is it now?" " It is a little after five, my Lord." "It is time for the boat to leave the harbor." "Mistress...?" "You look weary." "It is my heart that is weary." "Please forgive my cowardice  in not being able to bid you farewell ... on your journey." "I wanted to hold your icy hand  in my hand just once." "If I had done so, would I have been able to melt your icy heart as well?" "Perhaps I would have been able to." "But..." "I cannot do so." "If I held that hand..." "If I held that hand just once..." "I would never want to... let it go again." "Today, I was not able to see you as just a talented artist." "I saw you today as a woman that I fell in love with." "And I despise myself for it." "I pray that you will not be unwell for too long." "They say that heartbreak is rhythm and tempo to an artist, but I hope that you will consider true love and truth as yours." "Why are you so late?" "Don't you know today is attendance!" "Do we have to do this?" "What are you saying?" "Will the attendance takers be glad, or will the attendees be glad?" "Shut up, you wench!" "Myung-Wol..." "What are you wearing?" " Isn't it time for practice?" " You...!" "What are you talking about, Myung-Wol?" "Where is the Mistress?" "What shall we do about Myung-Wol?" "What is the matter?" "What has my Jin-Yi done?" "Go to her." "Go and speak to her." "Your daughter is losing her mind!" " Jin-Yi...!" " Where is the Mistress, mother?" "Why does her room look like this?" "Why are you doing this?" "Are you really losing your mind?" " Where is the Mistress?" " Stop looking for the departed!" "Departed?" "Where?" "Where did the Mistress go?" "Jin-Yi!" "That's impossible." "There is so much she has to do here." "She won't be so irresponsible to go without finishing them." "That's enough." "Stop this right now!" "If she knows you're being like this, she will never rest in peace." "Her soul will never rest!" "Send Myung-Wol to perform?" "How can you consider that...?" " That's why she must go." " Sir!" "How long have you been a courtesan?" "How many lives have you seen wasted?" "What was it that comforted you during those times?" "If she dances and plays music, she will forget her troubles." "So stop wasting time and send her out to all the events." "Play something!" "How long will you sit there and do nothing with your guhmungo!" "Let's leave!" "If you won't perform music, then you must at least offer your body." "Wouldn't that be the only way you can repay us for the price we paid?" "You bitch!" "Have you heard the news?" "What news?" "About Myung-Wol!" "The word is that she has become an invalid!" "It may be better to be an invalid, because the word is that she's gone insane!" "What?" "Insane?" "This is what people call "Getting what you deserve!"" "She was so arrogant because of her beauty and talent, and look what has happened." "I agree!" "Why are you outside?" "Was there something that displeased you?" "No." "Nothing like that." "Then please return to the rooms." "It is quite chilly, my Lord." "Please." " Mae-Hyang, you..." " Yes?" "Why don't you go and visit Song-Do?" "Why Song-Do...?" "So that silly girl has yet to get a hold of herself." " You will be able to help her." " No." "I cannot help her." "It was you that wanted to make her the Head Mistress of the Royal Troupe." "That is why!" "That is why I won't go." "I want her to arise from this herself." "I want her to become tough and resilient." "Mae-Hyang...!" "Ignore her plight, my Lord." "You must not do anything to help her." "That..." "That is how you can help her." "She has not touched her food again?" "Yes, sir." "Jin-Yi!" "We will lose her if we keep this up." "What can we do?" "We tried both persuasion and threats." "How long has it been since she last ate?" "She just keeps drinking!" "I will go to the Capital tomorrow." "Sir!" "Are you going to the Minister?" "Why didn't you call me?" "I know how you feel about her." "So how..." "How could I send you to do this?" "It is my duty to protect Myung-Wol." "Mu-Myung...!" "I will go." " Return at once." " My Lord!" "She is a strong woman." "It will be difficult, but she will be able to overcome..." "That is what I thought too." "I did not want to come here." "If I..." "If I were able to protect her myself," "I..." "I would not have come here." "Mistress...!" "Mistress...!" "My hands... won't move." "My hands won't make the instrument sing, Mistress!" "My arms and my legs  no longer belong to me." "Leg movements, knee movements..." "Arm movements...!" "I can't remember anything!" "I don't remember anything!" "I can't..." "I can't dance anymore, Mistress!" "Forgive me, Mother." "No..." "Don't forgive me, Mother." "I want to be with you, Mistress." "I want to go to you, and dance with you." "If I am with you, I think I can dance again." "I want to go to you, Mistress." "Let me go." "I can't." "I came such a long way to hold your hand again." "Now until the time when Heaven makes us part again," "I will never release this hand." "I will take care of her." "If I cannot make her happy..." "If I am just a wound in her heart that will never heal..." "Then just for a little while, please allow my love, my pathetic and pitiful love to be of some comfort to her."
