"Brought to you by WITH S2 Written In The Heavens Subbing Squad" "Episode 1" "Crown Princess..." "Princess, are you outside?" "Is anyone out there?" "See there!" "Is no one out there?" "!" "See there!" "Do you not hear me?" "!" "Is no one there?" "!" "What is it?" "Your Highness." "Speak!" "I asked you what is it?" "!" "Your Highness, Crown Prince!" "Speak!" "What is the trouble?" "!" "Crown Princess." "Crown Princess." "Crown Princess." "Crown Princess." "Your Highness!" "Your Highness!" "Let go." "Let go!" "Crown Princess!" "What are doing out there?" "!" "Princess!" "Crown Princess!" "Crown Princess!" "Crown Princess!" "Crown Princess!" "Crown Princess!" "Let go!" "Crown Princess!" "Crown Prince." "Yes, Your Majesty." "The ministers are urging that a suitable match is found for you." "So then, Crown Prince, what sort of maiden do you want as your princess?" "I would like a maiden with beauty as my princess." "What?" "Your Highness, with utmost respect, are you saying that all she must have is a pretty face?" "I think she would have to be beautiful for me to want to see her every day." "Your Majesty, if a maiden becomes Crown Princess and spends all her nights alone without her husband, what would be the point in that?" "What?" "Nights alone without her husband?" "Unni, Unni, Hwa Yong unni!" "Bu Yong, what are you making such a fuss about?" "Unni, the whole town is abuzz." "The king has finally declared the temporary marriage ban and ordered submissions for the eligible maidens list." "Really?" "So they are going to select the crown princess?" "That is so." "Do you know why there's so much noise in our courtyard?" "Rumors have spread that Father will be the father-in-law of the future king, and people are already sending splendid gifts." "If they are saying "father-in-law of the future king", doesn't that mean one of us will be selected as Crown Princess?" "Which one of us shall become the crown princess, I wonder?" "Oh Unni..." "Of course, that would be you." "Just thinking about my sister becoming Crown Princess makes me so happy." "I will get to see the palace, thanks to you!" "Bu Yong..." "Yes?" "When I become Crown Princess," "I shall call you to the palace every day, feed you delicious foods and dress you in nice clothes." "I wonder what the crown prince looks like?" "You two have probably heard and must already know, our family shall also submit to the maidens list for the crown princess selection." "Until the selection is made and you enter the palace, you shall need to be careful even drinking a sip of water and take each step ever so cautiously." "You must take heed that becoming Crown Princess means that the prosperity of our family rests on your shoulders." "We shall submit for the maiden list... younger child, so Bu Yong be aware of that." "L" " Lord, did you say our younger child?" "I did." "Our younger child Bu Yong will be considered in the crown princess selection." "Father." "Hwa Yong, listen carefully." "Yes, Father." "You will earnestly need to help your sister prepare to enter the palace." "Do you understand?" "Yes, Father." "Bak Ha." "Aigoo, you must be Bak Ha." "Bak Ha, you must say hello." "Hello." "And you must be Se Na." "Yes." "Mom, order me one of those ice creams too." "Yes, yes." "Excuse me." "Um, Bak Ha..." "We're all going to live together now." "This is Se Na unni." "Call her Unni, okay?" "Aigoo!" "Since Dad and I go to work, did I or did I not tell you to watch the child?" "Huh?" "It's a relief that the house didn't catch on fire." "Why were you trying to make ramen on your own when you're so young?" "Bak Ha, if you touch the gas range one more time, you'll be in deep trouble!" "Aigoo, I told you to watch the child!" "Is this your little sister?" "Open the bag." "Why does she need to?" "I said open the bag." "I don't want to!" "Why?" "!" "You really..." "I said I don't want to!" " Open it." "Is there something in it?" " No, you can't!" "Hey, what is all this?" "What is this?" "!" "I don't know, Unni." "I don't know." "Did you steal this stuff?" "Are you a thief?" "Tell me!" "Are you a thief?" "!" " I don't know anything!" "It wasn't me." " Why would you steal this?" "Why?" "I don't know!" "You little runt, are you going to pull a stunt like that again?" "I don't know what you're going to make of yourself like that." "Do you know?" "Why would you..." "Bak Ha..." "[Busan 2 Neoh 5902]" "I'm going to go and buy you some milk." "Stay right here." "Unni!" "Unni!" "Unni!" "Unni!" "Unni!" "Here, Unni!" "Unni!" "Unni, look over here!" "Unni!" "Unni!" "Here, Unni!" "Unni, look over here!" "Unni!" "Unni, here!" "Unni, here!" "Unni, look over here!" "Unni!" "Unni, please look over here!" "No, that's not right." "Try those clothes on her." "And those flowered shoes." "And the ribbon for her braid..." "Which ribbon do you think would be best, Hwa Yong?" "For the braid ribbon..." "I think this would be good, Mother." "I don't think so." "Let me think..." "That's right, Hwa Yong." "Last fall, that ribbon Lord Song's family gave you as a gift..." "That one would do nicely." "Hwa Yong, go and fetch that ribbon." "Mother, that is Unni's ribbon." "This is more than enough, Mother." "That is not so, Your Highness, Crown Princess." "The crown prince has said he wants a beauty for his bride." "You must be beautiful." "Unni." "Unni, I'm coming in." "Yes, come in." "Unni, let's eat some dried persimmons." "I heard that the skirt you will be wearing to the selection was wrinkled, so I wanted to iron it personally with my own hands." "Thank you, Unni." "Earlier this afternoon, you were upset over the ribbon, weren't you, Unni?" "That's not so." "I'm fine." "Unni." "Tomorrow is the day the names are submitted for the maidens list, isn't it?" "The days have gone by so fast." "Unni." "Now, there aren't many days before we are separated." "I'm going to miss you so much." "Just like we talked about before," "I'll invite you to the palace every day." "So let's eat delicious food together and share nice things, Unni." "Unni, have some dried persimmon." "Here." "No, you eat first." "No, you eat first, Unni." "I said you eat it first." "Aigoo." "What?" "!" "How could something like this happen?" "!" "How?" "!" "What in the world were you doing?" "!" "The scar on the young one will remain forever." "What are we to do, Lord?" "What are we to do?" "Quiet!" "Bring me the submission to the maidens list." "I shall submit the elder child, Hwa Yong, for the maidens list." "The butterfly was fooled too." "He was fooled." "How magnificent your embroidery skills are, My Crown Princess, that even a butterfly thinks it's a peony blossom." "It seems as though the butterfly will truly come to life and fly away." "There is no way to contain this overflowing mood." "Mok dan ham ro jin ju gwa," "The peony flowers that hold the pearls of dew... mi in cheol deuk san cheong gwa." "were picked by the bride, and as she passed outside the window." "Crown Princess, you should respond." "Han su moon dal lang, hwa gang cheom mo gang?" "she smiled slightly and asked her groom, are the flowers prettier or am I prettier?" "Is that your response, young sister-in-law?" "Dal lang go sang hee, gang do hwa ji ho." "The groom in playful jest responded," ""The flowers are prettier than you. "" "Mi in tu ha seung, dap hwa ha ji do." "The bride sulked at hearing the flowers were prettier and stepped on the bouquet of flowers." "Hwa yak seung eo cheob," ""If the flowers are lovelier than I,"" "geum so hwa dong sook." ""then tonight you can sleep with the flowers. "" "You are not even married." "How can you utter such suggestive poetry?" "Forgive me, Your Highness." "As I am low and unworthy, I know not proper virtue." "Please punish me." "I jest." "I jest." "It is so amusing to tease you." "Your Highness." "I am curious to see what flowers have bloomed at Buyong (Lotus) Pond." "Oh, really?" "Let us make our way towards Buyong Pond." "Your Highness, that flower over there..." "Ah, Sister-in-law." "I've created another riddle." "This time, there's no way you will be able to solve it easily." "If you bring me the answer within 2 days, I shall give you a big prize." "All right?" "Yes, Your Highness." "Even if it lives, it dies." "Even if it dies, it lives." "What could it be?" "Even if it lives, it dies." "Even if it dies, it lives." "Crown Princess, do you think you know the answer?" "I think I might, but then I think I don't, Your Highness." "You probably wouldn't know it." "No, you don't know it." "Attendants, listen." "Make sure the crown princess is not disgraced." "Wrap her from head to toe in silk, without even an inch showing." "Yes, Your Highness." "Left Guard, Right Guard, listen." "Close the Seongjeon Pavilion where the crown princess and I were last night." "Immediately rope it off, prohibit anyone from entering, and stand on guard." "Yes, Your Highness." "No one is to touch the things that were in the room, not a glass, not a plate!" "So, stand on guard." "Yes, Your Highness." "Someone dares to enter the palace, center of this nation's law," "and take the crown princess' life..." "I will absolutely find the killer who murdered the crown princess." "And then..." "I shall tear his body limb from limb." "And if there are those who helped him," "I will dig out their flesh." " Your Highness!" " Your Highness!" "We have fruit, everyone!" "Tomatoes, oranges on sale!" "You!" "It's a thief!" "Stop right there!" "Or I'm going to kick your ass!" "You're dead meat." "Oh my god!" "Oh no." "Oh, I'm so sorry!" " Tae Yong, are you all right?" " Are you okay?" "Are you Korean by chance?" "Ah, yes." "He'll be all right." "Ah, I'm sorry." "But, over there." "Hey you punks!" "You little thieves!" "Stop right there!" "Are you all right, Tae Yong?" "Yeah." "Why are you so late?" "It took two hours just to get out of the airport." "There must have been some security issue." "Grandmother is well, right?" "If you just stop causing her grief." " Hi Amy." "Good to see you." " You too." " Hi Mario, hi Joanne." " Huh?" "Earlier, your forehead..." "The apple lady?" "How are you today?" "Check it out." "Is she someone you know?" "No." "When I was waiting for you, I saw her and she looked pretty." "Whoa, Tae Yong, this is the first time I've heard you call a girl pretty." "Take care." " Hey Zoe." " Hi." "You're having a day off tomorrow, right?" "Do you want to go catch a movie?" "Yeah, but I changed my time table with Betty, so, I'm taking the next day off." "Oh, that's too bad." "Next time then." " Okay, take care now." " See ya." " Bye bye." " Bye, sweetie." "Thanks." "Look there." " Oh, thanks." " Thank you." "You're welcome." "Tae Yong." "That apple lady has the day after tomorrow off." "Ask her out." "And, how'd you find that out?" "That's why I'm a pro, pal." "You said she was pretty; ask her out." "Hey, she's coming, she's coming." "Oh geez." "Hey, I reserved a boat to do some sketching of New York." "Do you want to come with me, Hyung?" "Yes, yes." "Ah yes, now I can hear you." "I'm sorry." "Please go ahead and speak now." "Excuse me?" "You're serious, right?" "You're sure, right?" "Amy!" "Amy!" "Where's Amy?" "I'm sorry." "Amy, Amy!" "Amy, Amy, Amy!" "I'm going to Korea." "I'm going to Korea!" "What for?" "Did you find your lost father?" "Yes, that's right!" "I found my father!" "I just got a call from Korea!" " Oh my god!" " Oh my god!" " Oh my god!" " Oh my god!" "Oh my god." "I'm so happy!" "Tae Yong, it's your grandmother calling." "Just don't answer it;" "I'll call her later." "Hey, but how can you not answer?" "I said don't answer it." "She said this time, I have to drag you back to Seoul no matter what." "Just tell Grandmother you couldn't find me." "Grandmother..." "I should call her Chairman." "The Chairman... has decided to step down from her position in the company, I believe." "Why does she keep insisting I work there when I know nothing about company work?" "When it comes to the company, there's Uncle, and there's you too." "Not me, not my father, but you and your family run that company." "Why are you becoming so serious, Hyung?" "We're all family." "This sort of talk is no fun." "You and I are half cousins." "I only qualify 50 percent as your older cousin." "Hyung." "The chairman is your grandmother, Tae Yong." "She's not mine;" "I can't call her Grandmother." "In fact, I've never called her that." "To the chairman, my father is a disgrace and a permanent thorn in her side." "Because my father was the child her husband had while cheating on her." "So the company is your family's matter!" "Why are you acting like this?" "!" "I told you it's not amusing!" "If you don't want me to bring up those things then don't make me say them." "Don't make me have to sit on a plane for 14 hours on an errand like this!" "Stop it, Hyung!" "Tae Yong!" "Tae Yong!" "It's not bad." "Thank you." "Whoa." "What are you doing?" "I'll take a picture for you." "Let me take one of you, Hyung." "Ay, forget it." "Tae Moo." "Tae Moo." "Did you have a good trip?" "Let's go." "What's gotten into you suddenly?" "Just... stay like this a minute." "What?" "Missing?" "Ah!" "Oh no!" "Unni!" "What's the matter?" "!" "Oh, snap out of it!" " Unni." " Mother." "Please sit down." "What do you mean missing?" "What do you mean our Tae Yong is missing?" "What the hell are you talking about?" "Missing?" "!" "Chairman, it's a little early to say he's missing." "You just said with your own mouth that he's missing." "Mother, that is... because my son Tae Moo went to New York for five days and couldn't get in touch with him, that's why." "So, he's just saying it might be wise to report it to the New York police..." "Team Manager Yong, didn't you get in touch with Tae Yong before you went to New York?" "Yes, Director, that's true." "But, Tae Yong never showed up where we were supposed to meet." "His phone was turned off and he didn't come home." "And there were no friends who knew where he was." "Aigoo, what am I to do about this?" "You don't think anything happened to our Tae Yong, do you?" "Chairman, I'll send someone over to the U.S." "We need to let a professional handle this." "Right, do that." "Hurry." "Yes, Chairman." "Are you Bak Ha from the U.S.?" "Yes, that's me." "Hello." "Hello." "It's true the DNA test results show a positive match." "Yes." "Where is my father now?" "Well, that is..." "We were able to contact you in the U.S., but we were unable to contact your father." "You weren't able to contact him yet?" "Well no, you see..." "Could it be that my father wants to avoid seeing me?" "I hear that in situations like these, they sometimes avoid seeing their kids." "Is that the case?" "That's probably not true." "After all, he registered in the DNA database to find his lost daughter." "I'm sure he wanted to see his daughter." "But..." "Right now, you see..." "Right now, what?" "Father!" "Hey!" "Where have you been?" "You're the principal mourner!" "Where have you been all day?" "Do you want be called a bastard child?" "I told you there was an urgent matter." "You are so loyal to that company, and none of them come to pay condolences at your father's mourning?" "I'm a Hong and Daddy's a Park." "Is there any reason to announce it at work?" "And then there's a Lee too." "Should I announce that too?" "Someone's going to hear, you little wretch." "Who is she and why's she crying so hard?" "Aigoo, it's so..." "Who is she?" "Mom." "Who is she?" "You don't recognize her either, do you?" "It's Bak Ha." "Bak Ha." " Ah, it fits." " Yes." "Unfortunately, it's not a situation where we can be joyful at meeting again after fifteen years." "Let's complete the funeral first, and then talk in more detail later." "Yes." "But, you really don't remember anything?" "You were about nine or so." "At nine, you would know your father's name and address." "How could you have not searched for your father?" "You see this scar, right?" "They said it was quite a large scar, but it's gotten a lot smaller." "They say it was a car accident." "All I remember is that I was in the hospital for a very long time." "Aigoo, so there was an accident." "But, where could you have been in a car accident?" "Se Na." "When we lost her, your father and I thought of all sorts of possibilities, but we couldn't find her because there was a car accident." "Mom, is this really the time to talk about this?" "Huh?" "Ah, aigoo." "I think the market planning committee have come to pay condolences." "Hey, can you help serve food to the guests and sort the shoes as well?" "Since we don't have a large family, we're short on hands." " Hmm?" " Okay." "Do you really not remember?" "I played with you a lot when we were kids." "When my mom and your dad went to the market to work," "I took care of you at home." "I don't remember anything." "Really?" "All right." "They aren't good memories anyway." "Forgive me, Your Highness, but what do you mean murder?" "Who would dare murder the crown princess inside the palace?" "Second State Councilor, if not murder, why was the crown princess found dead in Buyong Pond?" "Why in the world?" "!" "It was certainly murder." "For what possible reason would anyone murder the crown princess?" "There is no reason, Your Highness." "We have to find the reason." "Your Highness is well aware... when the crown princess could not sleep at night, she took walks along the hill." "It's tragic, but she must have lost her footing and slipped at the Buyong Arbor." "Please do not bring upon the crown princess any more disgrace, Your Highness." "Please understand, Your Highness." "It doesn't stand to reason!" "If she took a walk along the hill in the middle of the night, there would have been attendants with her." "If she fell into Buyong pond, why wouldn't they have let people know?" "Police Chief Hong Rang Hyung at your service." "Enter." "Your Majesty, we've captured two attendants who were with the crown princess that night." "They were in a private home." "Brother-in-law, what did they say?" "Yes, Your Highness." "The crown princess could not sleep that night, and as she stood in contemplation at Buyong Arbor, the two attendants became distracted elsewhere." "Tragically, when they returned, the crown princess had already slipped." "The two attendants became frightened and then fled the palace." "Death is a suitable punishment." "Your Majesty, regrettably, the two attendants have already died." "How?" "How did they die?" "As the captured attendants were being brought in, they tried to run." "They died by the blade of the guards in pursuit." "They have merely received the punishment they deserve, Your Majesty." "And now that the attendants have confessed the whole story, there is no longer any doubt." "I believe allowing the crown princess a peaceful memorial service is the proper course of action, Your Majesty." "Please allow the proper course of action, Your Majesty." "Then, let it be done." "Your grace is immeasurable, Your Majesty." "Song Man Bo." "Current age: 22." "Though called a child prodigy, as a son of a concubine, you could not take the civil service exam or serve a government post." "Blocked from achieving any rank, you threw the words of sages to the dogs and devoted yourself to the pursuit of all miscellaneous knowledge." "Prophecy, medicine, astrology, geography, machinery, there's nothing you don't know and nothing you can't understand." "Is that correct?" "With all due respect," "I am but a fool." "Last year, your deductions solved the murder case of three gisaengs in Pyeongyang." "Is that true?" "It is true, Your Highness." "There is another murder case." "Woo Yong Sul." "You killed a nobleman who murdered your mother and raped your sister." "With a single sword, you killed the gang of seven swordsmen guarding the nobleman." "And with a single sword, you also killed a gang of nine that followed." "For what purpose did you learn your swordsmanship skills?" "I wanted to protect our people and this nation." "I am soon to be this nation." "Can you protect me?" "Do Chi San." "Though you were brought in as a palace attendant when you were young, because you became too close to the court ladies, you were kicked out." "You know the ways of men and know the ways of women." "Not only do you thoroughly know the ways of people, but here in Joseon's best regarded gisaeng house, you know what goes on in the palace, in the homes of officials, in secret... there's nothing you don't hear about." "What are the rumors?" "Did the crown princess slip into the pond or was she killed?" "Do they say it was an accident?" "Or a murder?" "Song Man Bo," "I bestow upon you a 6th level rank as librarian in the royal lecture hall with this special appointment." "Do Chi San," "I bestow upon you a 6th level rank as the crown prince's attendant with this special appointment." "Woo Yong Sul," "I bestow upon you a 6th level rank as the crown prince's guard with this special appointment." "That night," "I asked for a liquor table to be brought in and chatted with the crown princess about this and that." "I tried dressing up a little today." "There was nothing particularly different from other nights." "The crown princess asked about the king's illness and asked about how difficult the lessons with the scholars had been." "Ah, right, before then the crown princess's sister came to the palace from their home." "She said she had solved the riddle I gave her and rushed to the palace though the sun had already set." "What brings you here so late in the night, Sister-in-law?" "Your Highness, I have solved the riddle." "Ah, have you?" "Then, what is the answer?" "Sister-in-law did indeed solve the riddle." "After she left, I had another drink and fell asleep." "When I woke up thirsty at dawn, I did not see the crown princess." "Your Highness." "Yes." "What did you find?" "Your Highness, regrettably, if the crown princess had taken poison, she could have walked from your quarters to the Buyong Pond here just as she normally does." "For the poison to travel throughout the body, that much time is necessary at least." "After she arrived here, one can conjecture, the poison spread about her body and caused her to fall in." "Your Highness." "I searched for black market dealers of poison." "Though I found a man that deals in poison, it was after he had already died." "It is said that the poison he dealt in was primarily arsenic." "Arsenic, you say." "White powder poison." "Your Highness." "It was the dried persimmons." "It was the dried persimmons served on the liquor table that night." "The white powder that forms on the dried persimmons and arsenic cannot be distinguished by the human eye." "Are you saying sprinkled poison on the persimmons?" "Your Highness!" "Your Highness!" " Your Highness!" " What is it?" "Tell me what it is." "I heard that it could have been poison." "I heard the crown princess didn't just die naturally." "Aigoo, there's a rumor that it was poison." "Your Highness, that night here at Buyong Pond, there's a witness who said they saw the crown princess then." "What?" "Who is it?" "Who is the witness?" "I have found out where the witness lives." "Where is it?" "Let's go." "Let's go immediately to the witness!" "Are you sure this is the right place?" "Yes, Your Highness." "I'm sure I was told this was the place." "Your Highness!" "Your Highness!" "Hey Bak Ha." "Yes, Mother?" "You opening up a shop within two years of returning to Korea, isn't that a huge success?" "The shop is tiny, and I'm going into debt to get the startup capital." "Aigoo." "My Se Na goes into debt to buy shoes and handbags." "Mom, if you broke your arm and leg, couldn't you just rest?" " Do you have work?" " Geez, you scared me." "You should have said that you've come." "Hey!" "Have you helped me out financially because I broke my arm and leg?" "The wretch is colder than a frozen solid pollack." "Unni, if you're busy, you should have called;" "I could have taken Mother home." "What?" "Then you could have called earlier." "Mom, hurry up." "I'm tired." "I'm going to drop you off and go to bed." "All right, you wretch." "Bak Ha." "Tidy up, then go home and rest." "Okay." "Ay, come over here and give me a hand!" " Go on and rest, Mother." " Okay." "Bye, Unni." "Ay, hold me up straight!" "Aigoo!" "W- w-who are you all?" "!" "Y- y-you all, who are you?" "What is this?" "!"

"Don't you think living here is nicer than living in Joseon?" "You can't come here." "Forgive us, Your Majesty!" "Tae Yong!" "Tae Yong!" "Aigoo!" " Excuse me?"
