W-Why are you doing this?
"Why," you ask?
Because it's dim here, and there are no people here.
And because I like you.
How does the next part go?
You insolent fool!
Oh, he's pretty good!
If it is your law to kill a Cheonin, who snuck into the capital city,(Cheonin is the lowest class in Silla society)
my rule is to kill the nobleman who crosses this line.
If you want to beat me up, cross the line first. I'll let you be my opponent.
Episode 2
Does it make sense that you want to sleep with that kind of atmosphere out there?
I don't think you understand.
It's impossible to put someone to sleep with my stories.
It will probably just startle them awake.
Will they even remember you were here with all that happening outside?
Even if you die, probably no one would know.
Are you threatening me?
Where are you going to find something of value today?
Wow.
Even though I'm not well off...
- Silver coins? - If you don't want it,
I-I'll do it.
Even though you seem like a shameful, dirty pervert,
- I will do it. - Pervert?
But only until you fall asleep.
That's all I want.
- You're the one who came here. - This!
Hey!
What are you doing?
Your friend is injured and is emotionally hurt.
I see you lack not only manners but also loyalty toward your friend.
What did you say?!
- Don't interfere. - But still.
If you interfere in this fight,
you'll only disgrace yourself.
So pathetic.
This insolent Cheonin bastard!
Is there anyone else who wants to come for me?
Let's go.
Do you think you will be let off easily?
The guards will cut your heads off!
Even if you had come a bit later,
they would have been dead by my hands.
I know.
You're actually crazy.
I know.
What's wrong?
I saw something.
Let's just go for now.
You said there is a Cheonin, who saw Sam Maek Jong's face in the capital city.
I apologize.
You can't let him live. Make sure he's dead.
You must find him tonight.
Move quickly. Got it?
Yes!
Oh, you're here? You should come in. Why are you just standing there?
Why? Didn't you come because of your back?
I saw something and it seemed weird.
Did you see something?
I feel like I saw that item.
What do you mean by that item?
The necklace that the lady wears.
The thing that your son had with him.
Where did you see it?
In the dark night where the clouds covered the moonlight,
a man was secretly heading to his lover's house,
but he couldn't reveal himself yet.
The man crossed over the fence and snuck into her room like a thief.
The surroundings were dark, but the darkness was comforting.
Passing by countless rooms, at last,
he was able to sense the woman's scent.
As he calmed his heart which was bursting, the moment he opened the door,
In front of his eyes was the woman in his dreams.
She stood there with a bright smile.
Why did you come here?
I lost again.
I'm the scared one.
Oh my, An Ji Gong, what are you doing here?
I came because I had something to confirm.
Please tell me what it is.
I heard Cheonin villagers came here. Do you know where they went?
Ah, they left about thirty minutes ago.
With the quarrel between Cheonin and the nobles, nobody noticed where they went.
Do you remember what they look like?
One of them covered his face with a bamboo hat, so I'm not sure about him,
but they were both tall. Like you.
Thank you.
By chance, do you know this man?
What's happening?
I heard someone who is similar in appearance was headed toward the east gate.
I have something to ask. One of them is wearing a bamboo hat...
Let's just stay hidden around here for today and keep looking tomorrow.
There is not one day when nothing happens, when we come to the capital.
What's wrong?
It's nothing.
It doesn't seem like nothing.
Aren't you going to tell me?
I...
I think I saw the same necklace as mine.
But after coming to the capital, there are so many similar necklaces.
I don't know how many more necklaces there are that look like this.
- Stand up.- Where are we going?
If you even saw some, we'll have to confirm.
Are you stupid? What was the whole point of coming here?
If you saw it, then you should go look.
Aigoo. Stand up.
Why did you come out instead of sleeping?
Because the woman fell asleep on me.
I think I have to see her time to time.
Do you think she'll do it next time?
Earlier, I definitely heard her call you a pervert...
Don't you think recently we are becoming too close?
I'm starting to think that way.
Even if you don't want to see me, you have no choice for a while.
Why? You haven't caught the guy who saw my face yet?
Don't you worry. The guards are handling things.
That's what I'm worried about.
I am afraid the guards will handle it in that way.
Your Maj — Sheesh.
She still will be there, right?
Even if she is not, we can ask someone.
You will be so surprised, really!
Really pretty.
You told me differently before. But she seems to be your sister.
No, not just brother and sister. She is the spitting image of me.
She was cute, and she had a small face.
Tall?
What's wrong?
I'm...
I'm done.
This is crazy, idiot, you can't! If is happens here, what will I do?
You can't! Get back to your senses!
We have to meet my sister!
We have to hide...
What?
Run away...
Shoot!
Dog .. Bird!
Dog-Bird. Dog-Bird.
Run away.
Dog-Bird. Dog-Bird.
Stay... Stay still...
That's how you'll survive...
At last,
I killed him.
He's still breathing.
Wake up.
Me...
Leave me... And go.
Shut up.
I'll...
I can't...
I won't leave you.
I can't lose you. Get up.
You have to live...
You are just myself.
You. . .
are my parents,
and a sibling,
and my body itself.
If you live, I live.
If you die, I die too.
Get up.
Get up, be strong.
Get up...
Don't touch that.
This...
Is this yours?
Huh?
Whose necklace is this? It's my child's, right?
Talk to me, please!
Seon Woo...
It's your dad.
Seon Woo!
Your dad is here.
Why are you not doing anything?
Save him.
Seon Woo.
Dad...
Fa... Father.
I...
I missed you.
Seon Woo.
No way.
No, Mak Moon!
No!
No! Mak Moon!
NO!!
No.
No!
Seon Woo!
Have you gotten up?
- But last night Ahn Ji Gong came here— - Oh, what I am I supposed to do?
I stayed a night here?
Oh, Oh. You should have woken me up.
Seriously! What am I supposed to do!
What am I supposed to do? What am I supposed to do?
I'm dead.
What do I say about not going home yesterday?
So you slept with a pervert?
That's not true.
I did sleep but...
We didn't sleep.
All right.
I was here since last night.
For free?
If I come out like this, who would be more disadvantaged?
Is it me?
All right.
Oh, nothing is working out.
I only met strange people and couldn't tell my story.
What story?
Don't keep me waiting, tell me quickly.
Actually...
There were two men.
Were they handsome?
What?
One showed up at a moment of despair and rescued the woman before disappearing.
If you aren't alright, it can't be helped.
The other,
offers her something that she cannot refuse.
But only until you fall asleep.
That's all I want.
One is mysterious and the other one is deadly.
Do you suppose so?
What happens afterwards? Does the woman get involved with the two men?
I suppose?
Will there be a 'next time' ?
What? They should get involved to make it fun.
Queen Dowager, Kakgan Yeong Sil is here.(Kakgan is the highest officer rank in Silla)
Your Majesty, the subjects and the Royal Council
wish to see you in a golden crown very desperately.
Even now, there is an assassin who is chasing after a young noble man.
I heard sometimes a young man's throat is cut.
That's a ridiculous rumor.
Once King Jin Heung takes his throne back,
the rumor will melt away just like snow does.
It's not the right time yet.
Some day, it will happen.
I mean after killing all the rats lurking around the palace.
Were you waiting for Miss Ah Ro?
No, I wouldn't call it waiting.
No, wait.
- Miss? - Yes.
She is An Ji Gong's daughter.
Her family isn't doing so well. So, sometimes we give her some sewing to do.
As you know, her talents lie elsewhere.
An Ji Gong?
Does that mean she's a True Bone (related to royalty but not the immediate family of the king).
Well...
Let me tell you this.
She is half.
Half?
Her mother was the servant of An Ji Gong's house
and was kicked away to a Cheonin village.
We can say she's half of a true bone.
You startled me!
I...
Father, about yesterday night...
I...
Did something happen?
Father...
There is a serious patient inside.
Because the wound is so deep, rest is needed, so you shouldn't go in there.
Are you okay?
I will not be taking any other patients for a while.
If anyone asks, tell them I went far to see a patient.
What kind of patient could it be?
You must live. You have to live.
DOCTOR
You've gotten up?
It's okay.
This is...my house.
You've been unconscious for
5 days.
What about Mak Moon?
Seon Woo...
I buried him well.
You should have saved him.
You said you're a doctor.
You should have saved him.
Why didn't you do anything?
If you didn't kick Mak Moon away to the Cheonin village,
if you stayed with him, he wouldn't have died.
Why didn't you do anything? How could you not save him?
Why did you kill him? Why?
It's not your fault.
How much he missed his family.
He wanted to find them so badly.
He did.
I searched and searched for him all over Silla.
It's all because of me.
Even though they took my son, I just watched.
Incapable and powerless.
It's because of his father, me.
How did you live with that condition? You must have often fainted.
It's none of your business whether I die or not.
If I found Seon Woo,
I was going to give him these clothes and the entrance pass to the capital city.
If you plan to go back to the Cheonin village, take these with you. You will pass the gate with ease.
Cheonin.
Do Cheonin have to die like beasts?
It is not a crime to kill a Cheonin, who snuck into the capital city.
What is the big deal to climb over the wall into the capital?
Why are we nothing? Why?
That is the disgusting rule of this country, Silla.
- It's not a simple issue.- What's not simple?
I saw them. I saw who killed Mak Moon.
We can get revenge. We can just get revenge for everything!
Um,
I am the daughter of this household.
I'm An Ji Gong's child.
It's not much. It seemed like you weren't eating at all.
I don't know how bad your body condition is, but it will only get better if you eat.
Did I tell you what my sister looks like?
She has pinky chubby cheeks,
and her eyes are round and sparkling.
She looks just like me!
She was modest and good.
What about a six year old is modest...
I wanted to give her a piggyback and watch her get married.
Okay! When I go to the capital,
I'll give you my sister.
Why?!
- What kind of reaction is that?- You said she looks like you!
What's wrong with that?!
There are things you should and shouldn't say. He only thinks of himself.
Are you implying that I'm ugly? Huh?
Did you just diss me?
Hey!
Let it go. Let it go.
If you drink this, your headache will go away and it will calm down your anger.
It's that type of tea, so . . .
I'll leave it here.
Okay.
You are kind.
What did you just say?
I said thank you.
Please drink it. You'll still have to live.
You did well. He'll decide on his own whether he'll drink it or not.
But still...
I hope he will drink it.
What man's appearance from the rear looks so sad?
But still...
I will have to live.
Why are you here?
I asked why you are here?
Just wait.
I will not leave alone
the men who did this to you.
I will get revenge.
The Guards were chasing after Cheonin who snuck into the capital.
-Was it also surreptitiously? - Yes.
Yes. Not even in their uniforms. They moved very quietly.
The guards were supposed to be with the Queen Dowager. Instead they were searching not uniform for a Cheonin?
They must have seen something?
I have seen those men before.
Just give me an order.
They must have seen something so important that the Queen Dowager personally intervened.
This is amusing.
Then go find them. Those Cheonin.
We're not hearing any news from them. Aren't you worried?
Why should I?
They ran away from me. No use worrying about them.
Yesterday...
Mak Moon died.
- Because of me.- It was destiny,
why would it be your fault?
He was asking for death as soon as he climbed the wall.
I need to
know why Mak Moon died yesterday.
And I will definitely get revenge.
It's your fate to just live and stay here.
So just live with me.
You know what kind of person I am.
Hurry up and go inside! And don't start crying, because I'm not home.
And make sure you eat!
And quit crafting those instruments already. Your back is hurting, too.
If I stay alive,
if I end up staying alive, I promise to come back!
That fate... I can't do anything about it.
Your Majesty, Wi Hwa Gong is here to see you.
Hwa Baek will have strong objections.(Hwa Baek is the political group of the Royals in Silla)
I wouldn't have started it if I was scared of those objections.
If so, please give me total control over this matter.
I made up my mind when I went to see you in prison.
When do you plan on telling the world?
Since you decided to become the teacher,
I will announce it to the whole country.
Hwarang
The new intelligence for Silla.
Hwarang. Boys who are lovely as flowers.
Regardless of their family or clan, they will lay down their lives for the nation and its people,
Loyal soldiers.
The intelligence to plan the future of Silla,
wise officers.
They will be respected by all Silla people.
Beautiful and special beings.
This is me making the future of this kingdom.
It's Hwarang.
Yes. This kingdom will become stronger with Hwarang.
Giddy up!
Among the Royal, only beautiful ones will be selected.
They will study hard together...
enjoy the beauty of nature in order to become the intelligence for Silla's future.
Hwarang.
Wow. That sounds cool!
They are pulling out dogs for the Queen.
- Is that not it?- I know right.
Who is going to such a crap? Isn't that so, Ban Ryu?
I didn't know you would be interested in this.
Why? You want to do it?
Why don't you go and wag your tail?(figure of speech: sucking up)
Isn't tail wagging your specialty?
It's what you always do to your step father.
We were,
out of touch to each other for so long.
Right?
Do you want to compete?
The whole Capital is shaking up due to the notice from the Queen Dowager.
Are you still going to do nothing?
That is obviously a hostage, isn't it?
Taking our kids and making them to be Guards for her.
She will keep all her power right under her feet.
Collect the Royal kids and train them,
to be future intelligence.
Why are you guys so upset?
What did you say?
Why don't you say something, Young Sil Gong?
Why aren't you saying anything?
They'll be training a group for the future of our kingdom.
There's no reason to not send our sons.
What?
Wait,
we can't just send them.
I have to get an approval from King Jin Heung?
Yes. That's it. You must show us if you are trustworthy.
Trustworthy?
The future of Silla belongs to King Jin Heung.
This kind of big future plan requires King's approval.
If you do, Hwa Baek will send their kids with their assurance.(Hwa Beak is the political group of Royal in Silla)
Cunning old man.
He is trying to get Sam Maek Jong out to the light.
Please consider
our concerns as parents before being officers for Silla.
The intelligence for the future of the country... Beautiful appearance?
- That's ME! - Enjoy the beauty of nature? That's me!
For the future of Silla, Hwarang.
You mean Hwarang for yourself, Mother.
For now, take seven silver coins.
What's up? Paying off the debt?
How much was left?
I had some work for you...
That's not it.
What is it? I asked you what it is.
Aren't you going to tell me?
This was asked in such a secret way...
It requires observing and prompt abilities.
You need to hide well and run away quickly.
That is my specialty.
What can I do?
So,
is the favor I asked of you going well?
Suspicions, really.
Don't worry! I did as you said,
and I got someone.
Just one?
You have smaller size of mind than I expected. I thought it was a bowl, but
it was a soy saucer.
Isn't it important to do this in a secretive and casual way?
If anyone could notice it,
is that what you wanted? Just look after your 'Alba' well. (Alba was a ball-shaped thing to peek on a woman, refer to ep 1)
I left it to the best person.
Geez.
Why is he acting like that? Who did he get?
Who on earth did he hire to be that confident?
No.
It's not right. It's not right.
By chance...
Are you the bamboo hat with the necklace? Am I right?
Anyway, I told An Ji Gong about you.
Did your friend meet his father?
It was all thanks to me.
I am not trying to show off.
Is that not it?
Or not.
I need a good sword.
Sword?
Hummm. I had looked around briefly.
Where could a Royal man go?
Oxta store?
Because I like you.
Leave it out!
Okay, here.
In order to find a guy who likes arrows, I need to go to carpenter's shop.
Good.
It's my first time following someone like that.
For all day, how fast she runs around.
So, where is she now?
In the end, I ended up killing this man.
It is that bastard.
It must be difficult to get around like that.
Excuse me...
Mother!
I have no intentions of hurting you.
But if you make a noise, you may be killed by the assassin following me.
Come out!
Who is following me?
Is hiding one of your habits?
Are you that afraid of your face being seen?
Go and don't look back and I'll see you again another time.
Where exactly is the door?
I asked who you were.
To you...
I'm someone who owes a debt from you.
Well. I cannot remember owing a debt to anyone.
My friend was killed by the sword you brandished.
Does this help you remember?
Stop.
In the end, I ended up
killing this man.
He is still breathing.
- He was alive. - Stop hiding and come out you cowardly bastard!
Come out right now!
There are doors in this world, that people like you should not dare to open.
It seems like you are in front of that door right now.
Do you think it's alright to have roads,
that people can't cross, doors you can't open,
do you think that is alright?
I do not. I think it's all rubbish.
So, stop barking and come out!
If you leave now,
I will spare your life.
There's no need for that.
Because anyway...
I'll kill you.
♫ Even though I am leaving ♫♫ Don't leave me. Don't leave me. ♫ [Thank you to Lee Kwang Soo for his special appearance]
♫ You who are turning away turn your feet toward me ♫
♫ I request and want you, you are everything in my life ♫
♫ Please carry me off on the dispersing light ♫
♫ Please carry me off ♫
We won't send our sons to Hwarang.♫ Until the end of the world ♫
If I can't make Hwarang...
Leave it to me.
How could he feel when he can't show up freely. Everyone has young and weak days.
What's your true intention to be a Hwarang?
Being young and weak is not a sin. However, not any more.
Leave now. Run away now.
I can't let another die for me. So...
- Don't cry. - Bring me your condition.
A Hwarang who doesn't object anything.
Which Royal man do you have in mind?
