Give me the sword...
Your Majesty!
Give me the sword! "Episode 4"
You scoundrel!
How can you, as a Prince,...
take liberties with a maid from the Divination Palace?!
I'm going cut your head off,
so as to make amends to the Heavens!
Father!
I know I've done wrong.
Please forgive me! Father!
Your Majesty, please calm yourself.
Ju-Mong...
Yes?
Do you not...
feel sorry for your poor mother...
whose heart heaves at your actions?
I... I've done wrong, Father.
Your Majesty.
Do not allow us to bring further shame to Your Majesty's reign.
Please permit us to leave the Palace.
Mother...
This child is not only lazy by nature,
but his actions do not befit a Prince as he is utterly despicable!
As his mother, I am ashamed to face you, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty, please send us away from the Palace!
Father!
I've done wrong!
I swear I'll never do this again!
Please forgive me!
Keep quiet!
You've committed a mistake and so you must bear the consequences.
Face the consequences and be a man!
How can you be so despicable and so worthless?
That's enough.
Your Majesty!
As punishment for failing to attend the Memorial Ceremony,
Give him 20 strokes of the plank.
Father,
20 strokes of the plank...
Any man will be unable to stand for days after such a punishment.
Prince Ju-Mong will be accompanying me on the journey to see the DalMu Bow...
How can he withstand such a punishment?
Please postpone this punishment until another day.
It will be as you say.
Brother!
Thank you!
I will never forget your kindness!
Thank you, Brother!
Thank you!
Are you still of the opinion that Prince Ju-Mong is...
Hae Mo-Su's flesh and blood?
If he were truly Hae Mo-Su's flesh and blood,...
surely he would not be so unworthy?
Maybe my judgment was wrong after all.
But somehow, there is still something...
extraordinary about him.
Even a good beating will not resolve our hatred.
How could you have helped him?
You are my own son,
and yet I cannot fathom your thoughts.
Mother,
I understand your pain.
Although I am BuYeo's Crown Prince,
I had my father wrested away from me.
If the apple of my father's eye...
had been of outstanding caliber,
I would not feel so wronged.
If he was my equal,...
I would not feel so humiliated.
That I know.
Then...
why then did you help him?
If he was given 20 strokes of the plank,
that rascal would not be able to walk straight.
So we should have aimed to paralyze him!
Why did you prevent it?
Only when he leaves the Palace will he then not be able to return.
What do you mean?
After 20 strokes of the plank, he will not be able to walk.
He would need to heal, and therefore will not be able to go on the journey.
How can we do as we wish under Father's scrutiny within the Palace walls?
We must take him outside the Palace walls.
We must remove him from Father's protection!
This golden opportunity...
how can we exchange it for a mere 20 strokes of the plank?
Brother...
Just listening to those words have lifted my spirits!
Brother, how must I prepare for this?
I await your instructions.
There is no need to prepare anything.
Even without dirtying our hands,
he will never be able to return.
Forgive me.
But in truth,
I really did intend to attend the Ceremony.
Please believe me...
What has happened to Bu-Young?
She was given 10 strokes of the plank and sent out of the Palace.
10 strokes of the plank... She withstood it all?
Now do you know the consequences of your actions?
Your journey for the Da-Mul Bow starts early tomorrow.
Go and rest.
What exactly is the Da-Mul Bow?
Why do I have to go such a long distance for a stupid Bow?
The Da-Mul Bow was a sacred weapon used by BuYeo's founding ancestor
to establish this great nation.
A Prince of BuYeo
must visit the Da-Mul Bow and receive its sacred energy.
If you have realized your mistake,
then go to the Da-Mul Bow and renew your heart.
Why are you silent?
Are you scared to leave the Palace?
No, I'm not.
Wait and see.
I will no longer disappoint you and Father.
The moment you leave the Palace,
you will no longer be a Prince.
No matter how difficult the situation...
you must never reveal your true identity.
The journey is long and treacherous.
Hence you will need to depend on your wits and strength,
to see the Da-Mul Bow.
Do you hear me?
Yes, Your Majesty.
Be on your way.
How far have we come?
Two more days and we'll have completed half the journey.
Beyond this river, it will be mountain paths.
Where is that rascal's grave?
We'll be finding out in awhile more...
Brother!
I brought you some water!
Good, thank you.
Here.
- Here. - Yes, Brother.
It's as sweet as honey!
When will you get another opportunity to taste such water?
Here, drink more!
Thanks, Brother.
Refreshing!
Is it cooked?
Here.
You should eat more.
Tomorrow onwards, you will lead the way.
I understand. I will take care of anything you wish!
You're really useless.
How can you call yourself a Prince and not be able to catch a rabbit?
Haven't I got my two brothers here with me?
Let's turn in.
Yes, Brother. Tomorrow I will do my best in leading us.
Are you having trouble finding the way?
No. This is nothing.
Don't worry, just follow me.
Let's go.
Brother!
Forgive me.
I do not see a path from here.
Brother?
Brother Dae-So! Brother Young-Po!
Help! Save me!
Help!
Brother!
Help!
Mother!
Is there any breath left in him?
I see you've come around.
Where is this place?
It isn't Heaven, so don't worry.
I'm asking you, what place is this?
You're truly a rude scoundrel.
Don't you realize I'm your savior?
I am a Prince of Bu...!
What is this about a Prince?
What a useless fellow!
Why you...!
Really!
Why you little...!
A girl?
Are you angry you've been bested by a girl?
Come on and fight!
I can easily take on 10 men like you.
Why you...!
Don't let him get away! Tie him up!
Yes.
Don't move!
- Let go! - Don't move!
Let go!
Stop him!
What will you do with me?
What do you... want from me?
You owe me a life.
Yes I know.
How will you repay this debt?
I don't have anything with me at the moment.
Then you'll have to use your body to repay the debt.
I'm considering selling you as a slave.
Please don't sell me!
I would rather serve you.
If you keep me by your side,
you will not regret it!
I don't know where you got your self-confidence from.
I'll think about it.
In that case, I've got a request.
What is it?
I need to go someplace now,
but I will certainly return in a few days time.
Please untie me.
Is this the only brilliant escape plan you could think of?
Useless fellow!
We are almost there!
That is Mt. ShiJo where the Da-Mul Bow resides!
- Let's go. - Yes!
This is the first trade Chief has assigned to Miss.
You must succeed, Miss.
Don't you worry.
You've arrived.
It's been a long time.
But, why isn't Chief Yeon Ta-Bal here?
Our Chief was unable to come down today.
He has sent his daughter in his stead.
My name is So Seo-No.
This is the insignia of our Trade Clan.
Let us inspect the goods.
Open it!
These were all produced by BuYeo.
If you wish to win the fight with Ok-Jo, you will need these swords.
What's more, these BuYeo swords are cast from steel.
Swords of steel?
Would you lend me your sword, General?
This iron sword is also a product of BuYeo.
These steel swords have been hammered a thousand times
to strengthen and increase its durability.
Therefore, the supply is limited.
How many do you have?
What I have brought with me is
50 spears and 50 swords.
That should be enough...
to be of great help to the Heng-In Nation.
Where is the remainder of your stock?
I will send more when we finish this trade.
What is your price?
Gold...
two kilograms.
It was difficult to acquire these weapons.
We are not making much profit from them.
Well, these weapons would fetch the price you ask.
Kill them!
Shoot!
Put down your weapons!
I told you that these swords were made of forged steel.
Why are you so foolish?
I... I've done you wrong.
It is too late.
Brother Oo-Tae...
kill them all.
It would be better if you released them.
Honor is more important than life.
Kill them.
Miss...
This is an order from your Leader.
If you must kill them...
then do it yourself.
I will no longer trade with the Heng-In Nation.
These weapons will be sold to Heng-In Nation's enemy, Ok-Jo.
Leave at once!
Don't look at me that way.
You can just whip me.
You rascal!
How dare you speak that way?
Quick, apologize to Miss this instant!
Let's just forget it.
Although you say you respect me,
you still think of me as a immature little girl.
Why would he do that?
Rascal! Quick!
Quick, kneel this instant and apologize!
You are too narrow-minded to be a trader.
They may return this favor in the future by a thousand times.
No one knows the future.
In my opinion, the position of Leader should have gone to someone else.
Your trade group would be better served if
that man had been the leader.
You can't even protect yourself.
How dare you speak in that manner?
This is none of your business!
If you open your mouth again, I'll kill you.
You despicable bastards!
You tie me up and treat me like a piece of wood!
Free me and challenge me!
Suk-Bo!
Yes, leader.
Step out.
This lad's our errand boy.
If you can win him in a fight,
I'll let you go.
What's more, I shall grant you a wish.
But if you lose...
I will sell you as a slave. Do you understand?
That is enough.
There is still a long journey ahead.
This is how I will soothe myself from my anger with you.
So you just sit back and watch.
Don't just stand there. Begin!
Uncle, let's wager!
I will wager 5 bags of salt on Suk-Bo.
I'll take your wager.
So your mouth is the only thing that works hard.
Among such precipitous and deep mountains,
how are we to find the Da-Mul Bow?
At the Hai Hour, the Shepherd is in the East.
The Shepherd has a wooden cane.
At the Hai Hour, call the Shepherd in the East
The Shepherd will give you a wooden cane with a hole.
What does that mean?
It must be a clue to where the Da-Mul Bow is located.
But I don't know what it means exactly.
What are we going to do now?
Where are we going to find the Da-Mul Bow?
Brother, I don't think we'll find it.
I think it's best we head back.
Who would doubt our word if we tell them we saw it?
No one else has seen it.
At the Hai Hour, the Shepherd is in the East.
The Shepherd has a wooden cane.
At the Hai Hour call the Shepherd in the East
The Shepherd will give you a wooden cane with a hole.
The Hai Hour...
The Hai Hour comes after sunset, and is the best time to view the stars.
The Shepherd in the East...
Yes! It's the Virgin Star!
- Young-Po! - Yes, Brother!
We must follow the Virgin Star and head East.
Brother, it's a cave!
There's a cave here!
Brother!
- Are you okay? - Yes, Brother.
Let's move quickly.
Yes.
Here is your Mt. ShiJo.
Get going.
You little rascal! You're so lucky!
What is the name of this trade clan?
You saved my life.
I should know your name so I can repay you.
I don't expect you to repay the debt.
Go on and leave!
Head off! Leave!
It's your fault I lost 5 bags of salt!
I must speak to you.
Since you do not wish to divulge your name,
I will tell you mine.
My name is...
...Jumong.
I had to hide my true identity because of personal reasons,
but I am a Prince of BuYeo.
Remember me.
I like you.
If you ever come to BuYeo, come and find me.
Fool!
Let us go!
Our Chief was unable to come here today.
He has sent his daughter in his stead.
My name is So Seo-No.
This is the insignia of our Trade Clan.
So Seo-No?
Take my torch.
- Be careful! - Yes, Brother.
There is a cliff here.
Please be careful.
Brother, it is the Da-Mul Bow!
The very bow that our ancestor founded our nation with!
Go ahead and string the bow.
Right!
Little bit...
Little bit more.
Brother, gather your strength!
Little bit....
Little bit more.
There is no bow that you cannot string.
Why can't you string this bow?
I also cannot understand.
No matter how hard I try, the bow will not bend.
Let me try it!
Don't bother.
His Majesty did not tell us to string the Bow.
This Da-Mul Bow is the symbol of our country.
Let's not do foolish things and return home.
I have come this far already!
Please give me a chance to string this bow!
That is enough.
How is this possible? It will not bend at all!
That is why it is sacred.
Your humble descendents, Dae-So and Young-Po,
have come to see our ancestors and will be on our way back.
In time, we will inherit the throne of BuYeo,
and reclaim the lost lands of GoJoSeon to establish a greater nation.
Please be with us in our efforts.
Brother, let us rest for a while.
Let us do so.
Will we be punished for not protecting Ju-Mong?
We didn't kill him...
He was the one who led us astray and endangered us.
That's enough, do not talk about the dead!
Yes.
We will be able to rest without worry when we return.
I want to see Lady Yoo-Hwa's ashen face when we tell her the sad news!
I told you not to talk about it!
If you think about it, it will reflect in your actions and expressions!
If we are not careful, they will blame us for his death.
Erase those thoughts from your head!
Yes, Brother.
If I make a mistake again, cut off my tongue.
Let's leave.
At the Hai Hour, the Shepherd is in the East.
The Shepherd has a wooden cane...
The East?
East?
The Da-Mul Bow was a sacred weapon used by BuYeo's founding ancestor
to establish this great nation.
A Prince of BuYeo must go to the Da-Mul Bow to receive its sacred energy.
If you know your mistakes,
then go to the Da-Mul Bow and renew your heart.
Brother, we have finally arrived.
We succeeded because of you.
Yes, you've put in a good effort too.
I will say this again.
Be cautious of your actions.
You must be sincerely upset about Ju-Mong's death.
Yes, Brother.
Let's go!
What did you just say?
Please kill me, Your Majesty!
I told him otherwise,
but he insisted on leading us.
I am responsible for Ju-Mong's death.
Please kill me!
Is Young-Po telling the truth?
It is all my fault!
Did you look for him?
Yes.
We looked everywhere.
But was unable to find him.
Then it must not be so.
Ju-Mong is not dead.
He said he didn't find him.
He did not die yet!
He can't die so easily!
Your Majesty, please find him.
Please find him!
My Lady! My Lady!
- Bring her to her quarters! - Yes, Your Majesty.
General Heuk-Chi.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Do you know where Ju-Mong was lost?
Yes.
During the war with Ok-Jo, I passed by with the army.
Take some soldiers,
and find what happened to Prince Ju-Mong.
Your Majesty, the Princes have already searched the area.
We are at an impasse with Ok-Jo.
Taking soldiers to that region may not be a wise decision.
The Prime Minister is right.
Please do not linger over this.
Instead, it would be better if Your Majesty prepares for
Prince Ju-Mong's funeral so as to console those in mourning.
If I do not see his dead body...
with my own eyes,
I will not accept his death.
General!
Leave at once!
I, General Heuk-Chi,
will do as you command, Your Majesty!
His Majesty has given orders to General Heuk-Chil.
He is to take 200 soldiers to search the area where Ju-Mong was lost,
and confirm whether or not he is truly dead.
Using the soldiers to find a dead Prince,
I really can't understand it...
High Priestess, you must console His Majesty.
I know how you feel, Your Majesty.
But we do not yet know the fate of Prince Ju-Mong.
Even if you don't know and you cannot know,
you must still speak to His Majesty.
Your Majesty,
I am not a fortune teller that prophesise falsely
to bring worry and disquiet to the people.
It is time for me to worship the gods.
You must leave now.
Your Majesty, Young-Po and I will guide.
Please allow us to follow them.
Do as you wish.
I knew you would return.
I knew you would return...
I never for any moment accepted your death.
Mother!
If you went to Mt. ShiJo, did you see to Da-Mul Bow?
Yes.
You came back from the dead, and received sacred energy.
Your life must be renewed.
It must be so!
My Lady!
It is time for the ceremony.
I understand.
Dae-So, Young-Po, and Ju-Mong come forward.
Dae-So, did you see the Da-Mul Bow?
Yes.
Did you just look at it?
Your character would have urged you to string the bow.
Did you try to string the bow?
Yes.
What was it like?
I will never in my life see a bow as strong as it.
The bow is a legend of all legends.
Well done.
Young-Po, what about you?
Brother pulled the string easily, but I could only barely string it.
I was not able to pull the bow as strongly as him.
Well done.
Ju-Mong, how about you?
Why are you silent?
Please forgive me, Your Majesty.
When I came out of the forest, I became lost.
I was scared and returned here without attempting to reach Mt. ShiJo.
If you survived your ordeal in the forest,
you should have put in more effort to see the Da-Mul Bow.
Forgive me.
Speak to me.
Why did you lie to me about seeing the Da-Mul Bow?
Before your journey, you made an oath to me,
to see the Da-Mul Bow and become a new person.
But, then you broke your oath and even lied to me.
Speak! Why did you tell such a lie?
It would have been better if you had not returned alive.
- Mother... - Leave this place!
I did not lie to you, Mother.
I saw the Da-Mul Bow.
I saw the Bow,
and even strung it easily.
But as soon as I pulled the string,
...the Da-Mul Bow broke.
The Sacred Bow... broke?
Yes...
I was fearful because of that,
but I am more fearful of my brothers.
I was not lost.
But my brothers...
left me to die.
Breaking the Da-Mul Bow is a serious crime.
But how could I say that I saw the Da-Mul Bow...
in front of my brothers who wanted me dead?
Mother...
What should I do now?
