Joseon Gunman
[Episode 11]
You didn't have to walk me home.
No problem. Go on in.
Yes, thank you.
Miss!
You're not even well! Where have you been?
Young Master Yoon Kang...
No, he's not. Let's go inside.
Wait...
Was he alive?
- I said it's not him! - What do you mean? I can tell right away!
But what happened to his hair?
It's no good.
I said it's not him! Hurry up and go inside! Go inside!
Be careful getting home, Mr. Hanjo.
- Oh, yes. Take care of yourself. - Yes.
His voice is the same!
Seriously! Get in!
What are you doing here?
You scared me!
- What's going on? - It's so hot, so I'm just taking a break.
It's so cool here. I'm busy, laters!
Tell me. Why are you watching this house?
It's a secret. I can't tell you.
This is Lady Soo In's house. Tell me.
I'm asking what's going on?
A gunman?
It looks like Lady Soo In's father has become a target.
- And? - I'm standing guard in hiding.
I'm also going to Nambyul Palace where the meeting will take place tomorrow.
Nambyul Palace?
Nambyul Palace is a real secret, but I ended up telling you.
Young Master Yoon Kang must be the only one who'd hold a gun to save Yeon Ha.
Young Master Yoon Kang... might still be alive.
Somewhere.
Who are you?
What are you doing, hiding there?
I wasn't hiding, I was just taking a look around the house...
So, this earth goes round and round with the sun in the center?
Yes.
There was an odd person like you in Italy, too!
We'll send young talents to Qing and have them learn how to construct new weapons.
In addition, we'll import 500 new guns
and train a modern army to protect Joseon.
Here is a draft with the details.
Good job.
Please be prepared.
If tomorrow's meeting goes well
we'll be able to take a step closer to becoming a strong country.
Yes, sir.
A modern army means His Majesty's guards after all.
To form an army like that means
he's willing to fight us with force even though we have control of military power.
We have to stop the meeting somehow!
That's what will happen.
Don't worry too much.
Is it okay for us to feel at ease?
We'll succeed.
This time, he'll put his life on the line to complete this job.
[Nambyul Palace]
You worked really hard for this.
You've done a great job.
- Guard your position. - Yes.
Drop the gun.
Ho Kyung!
I cut the left arm of one of them.
He must have a scar on it.
It's you!
You're the gunman who killed Head of the Palace Guard Park Jin Han!
That way!
Follow them!
What?
A gunman appeared?
Then what about Jung Hwe Ryung? What happened to Jung Hwe Ryung?
Luckily, he's fine.
Kim Ho Kyung was shot instead and saved Jung Hwe Ryung.
Send him a royal doctor right away.
- Treat him right away! - Yes, Your Majesty.
A gunman makes a ruckus even at a meeting between nations!
Where in the world would this happen?
Please calm down, Your Majesty.
How long do I have to just watch their barbarism?
How long?
- We'll head back now. - Sure, you've worked hard.
Father...
Is Ho Kyung doing okay?
But he is not conscious yet.
How could this happen... How...
Lady, let's go.
Brother...
It's you!
You're the gunman who killed Head of the Palace Guard Park Jin Han!
Father...
What's wrong?
Did you get hurt?
It's nothing.
I fell off from the horse on my way home.
- Are you okay? - Yes, I'm okay.
I heard there was another gunman incident in the capital this afternoon.
Interpreter Jung almost died.
So, is he okay?
Yes, luckily.
Scholar Ho Kyung was shot instead, trying to save Interpreter Jung.
There must be many gunmen other than the one who came to our house last time.
Because of the gunmen who showed up today
the meeting area became a complete mess, I heard.
How did the capital come to this state...
Don't be too concerned.
- The police will take care of it. - Still...
I'm a bit tired.
You should go back to your room.
Yes.
Get some rest now.
Brother, are you awake?
What about Lord Jung?
He's been here the whole time, but he just left.
I'll bring him over.
Just a little while.
Let's just stay like this for a while.
Thank you...
for staying by my side.
When I opened my eyes...
I felt at ease that you were by my side.
Brother...
It was definitely the sword scar that Father told me about.
What about his face?
I couldn't check.
You should partner with the merchant group again.
You need to keep him on your side, whether you like it or not...
so that you can catch a clue on the gunman.
Listen carefully.
I'm not generous enough to feed the hunting dog who failed in hunting.
If you fail one more time
I'll take you down from the head of the merchant group.
Don't forget... that a lot of people are coveting that seat.
- In the capital? - Yes!
I heard there was a big chaos because of the gunman!
Some people saw the corpse of the gunman, too!
The world is chaotic, I wonder what's going to happen...
Mr. Yamamoto is coming to Joseon soon.
What's that, out of nowhere?
I received a letter.
Mr. Yamamoto will think of us badly when he gets here.
Besides, our mining development with the Gyeonggi merchant group is at a halt.
- How do you plan to explain it to him? - Don't rush me.
I'm aware of it.
We need to fill up the warehouse first.
I'll meet with more middlemen.
Tell Je Mi to finish recording the delayed book-keeping in the next three days.
Yes.
- Mr. Hanjo. - What is it now?
In the worst case, you might be sent back to Japan.
Be prepared.
Mr. Hanjo.
I'll apologize to you on behalf of my father.
Please, Mr. Hanjo.
Please give us one last chance.
Please raise your head. You don't need to do this.
But... I'd like to apologize to you from the bottom of my heart.
My father is truly regretful, too.
Why does he keep doing things that he'd regret?
How pitiful...
- I'm sorry. - That's enough.
I wasn't saying it to you. So you don't need to apologize.
I can't be stubborn anymore when you're acting this way.
- Then... - Show me a successful outcome right away.
I'm giving this to you, not because of your father but because of you.
Thank you, Mr. Hanjo. Thank you so much.
We won't disappoint you anymore.
- You're finally smiling. - Pardon?
Yes, please smile. You look better when you smile.
How are you doing?
No...
Just stay in bed.
I'm fine.
Thanks to you, I've gotten a lot better.
Soo In is taking good care of me.
Thank you.
- I owe you a big debt. - Please don't mention it.
I'm just happy that you're safe.
It's dangerous to keep going to the palace.
Who knows what's going to happen when?
I can't stop doing what I believe is right just because I'm afraid.
Father...
That's what they want... for me to be scared and withdraw.
What do you mean, 'they'?
Officials or Second Vice Premier?
I'm not pointing at one person.
I'm talking about everyone who's only trying to protect what he has.
It's always been that fight.
The fight between the ones trying to protect what they have
and those who want to change for the good of the people.
- But if something happens to you... - Don't think about useless things.
Nothing will happen.
Oh... what brought you here without even a notice?
I stopped by on my way.
Why? Do you feel uncomfortable that I'm here?
How could you say that...
Please have a seat.
Thank you.
By the way, did something happen?
You look a bit uncomfortable.
Yes. I wasn't paying attention and I fell off from a horse.
You could've been in big trouble.
- Are you doing okay? - Yes, I've gotten a lot better.
I see. I wondered if you had a big fight with someone.
That scar next to your eye, too...
Just like someone who got beat up in a fight.
That's not possible.
Oh... I heard from Hye Won.
Thank you so much for giving us another chance.
I already said this, but I'm giving this chance for her, not you.
She even saw her father getting on his knees.
How disappointing would it be if she can't gain anything after all?
So make sure to do your part, too.
Don't be a shameful father for his daughter.
Do you understand?
Yes, I got it.
Thank you, Mr. Hanjo.
I've thought of Choi Won Shin as the one who's been managing the gunmen until now...
But I think Choi Won Shin is the gunman I've been looking for.
The head of the merchant group is the gunman?
Did you catch any evidence?
Not evidence, but I have a feeling.
I'm suspicious of the scar on his face, too.
You have the documents on him from the storage, right?
Yes, but there wasn't much in there. The middle part was torn out.
There must be something important in that middle part that was torn out.
- Look for that record. - Yes, I got it.
Excuse me, Mr. Sato!
What now?
Please have this. I made it for you.
Seriously, you...
Why do you keep making these...
What's in here?
Wild ginseng?
I took out the best one from a gift for Mr. Hanjo.
What the heck are you...
Just eat. You need energy to shoot the gun.
Keep quiet!
I heard the area near Nambyul Palace was chaotic the other day.
Why did you do that?
He's not the one. I heard he's a good man.
Never mind. Just eat. Tell me anytime if you need anything.
Wait for me!
I'll take care of the rest somehow. Don't worry.
I got it.
I'll stay here and finish my work.
- Got it. - Then...
- Yeon Ha! - Brother!
Is that why you came?
Alone?
I'm sorry. I was really worried...
Why worry...
Look. Your brother is doing fine.
So don't worry over nothing.
Nothing will happen in the future, either.
Now that I saw you're fine, I'll get going.
If I stay here for a while, you'll be in trouble.
Alright.
Let's go together. I'll take you there.
Okay.
Brother...
Go straight ahead. Don't look back.
What's wrong?
It's nothing.
He's over there.
- You're here. - Yes.
I have something to tell you about the meeting with the middlemen.
Oh, I see. Let's go inside.
By the way, who's that girl?
I'm looking to hire another clerk.
But she's too young, so I sent her away.
- I see. - Let's go inside and talk.
What are you doing here?
Yes... I saw someone who looked familiar, so I was looking for her.
- You mean, the girl from earlier? - Yes.
She looked like the one I sent from my house to Lord Song's.
The one that the gunman took.
It's not her.
If it was her, I'd have recognized her first.
Yes, that's right.
By the way, you seem obsessed with that girl.
What is the reason?
Why would you... over a slave girl?
It happened not too long after I sent her to Lord Song's house.
So it bothers me.
Let's go. We have a lot to discuss.
Yes.
Soo In! How could you be here...
You can't be here. No one can see you.
Let's go.
Yeon Ha...
Is it really you, Yeon Ha?
It's you, right?
Soo In...
How could you be here...
I've looked for you everywhere.
I've been so worried about you.
You must've gone through a lot.
You must've been so lonely...
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I should've found you sooner.
I should've brought you with me.
Soo In...
It's like a dream that I got to see you again.
I feel the same way.
It's okay. It's okay now.
I'm really glad.
I'm glad.
- Thank you. - Come again!
That's why you came all the way here? Because you were worried?
Yes. If it wasn't for you, I could've been in big trouble.
Yoon Kang almost got into trouble because of me.
By the way, did you know that Mr. Hanjo was my brother?
Yes, I found out recently by chance.
Does he know, too?
No, I pretended not to know. I think that's better.
I want to pretend not to know as long as possible.
Until he reveals himself first.
Please keep our meeting a secret so that he doesn't find out about it.
- Can you do that? - Yes.
Don't worry. I promise.
Okay.
Then... your brother that you're looking for is...
His name is Park Yoon Kang.
We'll get really busy from now on.
Double up the mining speed even if it takes an overnight shift.
Yes, I got it.
And introduce me to the middlemen.
Yes, I've already contacted them.
Mr. Yamamoto will come to Joseon soon.
Please proceed with everything until then.
Yes, we will.
Then get home safe.
I have business to tend to, so I'm heading out.
- Be well. I'll come visit you again. - Okay.
Brother!
Yeon Ha!
I didn't see anyone. I came straight here after I left your house.
Good, I feel relieved.
Don't come down alone again.
Do you understand?
If anything happens, I'll send Sang Chu.
Yes.
By the way... how long do you have to hide your identity?
I told you already.
Until I clear Father's name, I have no choice.
What about Soo In then?
Why don't you tell her?
Not Soo In.
If she finds out, she'll be in danger.
But you miss her. Don't you?
I miss her. I want to see her.
I dream of standing in front of Soo In as Park Yoon Kang every day.
But not now.
I can't put Soo In in danger because of my greed.
Brother...
So let's be a little more patient.
Let's keep it a secret from Soo In just a little longer.
Okay?
Young Master...
We have a big problem, Father!
What happened?
All the middlemen went for the Songdo merchant group.
What do you mean by that? Songdo merchant group, all of a sudden?
I don't know, either.
The merchants who didn't get the goods and got kicked out from the middlemen came to us.
Lord Kim Jwa Young helped the Songdo merchant group gain power.
That's why the middlemen had no choice...
Who is he?
Who on earth is he that he could control this overnight?
- I think I should go see him. - Forget it.
It's not someone you can see.
Leave it. I'll take care of this.
Forget it.
You're not even well. Why bother with a bow...
Just sit down.
What happened to you?
It's no big deal.
There was a little accident.
Idiot...
Such a fool who can't even take care of the body that's given to you.
So, why did you even come here?
Did you want to check on your father who got kicked out because of you?
- I came to see how you were doing. - How I'm doing?
You were blinded by a girl and sold your own father.
And now you're asking how your father is doing?
A dog on a walk would laugh at you.
I'm sorry.
But they were innocent.
They weren't the people who'd be used for your purpose.
Be quiet!
Who the heck is that girl?
Why are you still taking her side in front of me?
She's the one I love.
I'm going to marry her.
What? Love?
Marry her?
You still haven't come to your senses!
I know you won't give your permission.
But I felt that you should still know.
Shut up!
You fool, get out of here!
I don't even want to see you! Get out!
Please take care of yourself.
I'll come by again.
So... what brought you here?
I might have a way to save you, so I came.
I mean, a way for you to return to the palace.
What? How would the likes of you have a way to save me?
I've been under Lord Kim Jwa Young for a long time.
I must've had some tricks to serve him for that long.
So... what's your reason for helping me?
I'd like to serve you.
But... you're Lord Kim Jwa Young's man.
I'm a hunting dog that will be abandoned once the hunt is over.
So I'm looking for a new master.
I assume you have the same thoughts...
What do you mean by that?
I heard Lord Kim decided that Lord Choi would be your replacement.
It's time for you to be the owner of yourself.
- I'll be your right arm. - You fool!
Get out of here!
You're babbling away!
How dare you pull a trick on me as a lowly merchant?
Whether it's a trick or not, you will find out eventually.
First, I'll get you to the capital.
It won't be too late to think about the rest after that.
Please just wait a little longer. It's almost done.
Take your time. I'm fine.
By the way, did something bad happen?
You don't look too good.
It's nothing.
But you look happy.
Did something good happen?
Yes. In fact, I met someone I really wanted to see.
So I'm really happy.
Someone you wanted to see?
There is someone. It's a secret.
It's done!
It's hot. Cool it before you drink it.
I said it's hot.
If I knew about this, I'd have gotten sick sooner.
What?
Choon Ok!
My lord!
Take your time.
No one's coming for you.
What about the money?
I hid it in a pot. Wait a minute...
I'll bring it over.
I feel alive.
She said she was getting the money, so what's taking her so long?
Finally, I got you.
Son. Taek. Soo!
What? You got Son Taek Soo?
Yes, he's being interrogated in the police station.
As soon as he opens his mouth
it's only a matter of time before we clear your father's name.
Wait just a little longer.
We'll get this and clear his name.
Let me go with you.
What?
Let me meet with him. I want to ask him myself why he did it.
- But... - Please, Jung Hoon.
I'm asking you.
- Son Taek Soo? - Yes.
Our spy at the police station told me.
He's being interrogated now.
Hurry up and say it.
Who ordered you to lie about Head of the Palace Guard?
I can't say it here.
Please transfer me to somewhere safe.
You!
There must be a spy.
They planted spies in the palace guard office, too.
There must be connections in the police station, too.
If I stay here, someone will kill me.
Like Jong Tae.
So please transfer me to somewhere safe.
And promise me that you won't kill me.
Then... I'll tell you everything.
I hear Son Taek Soo is caught.
Now the one who made a false accusation is caught, what do we do?
Besides, His Majesty will question him himself.
If he tells the truth, it's over for us!
Using Park Jin Han's case as an excuse, he'll take us all down.
Don't worry at all.
That won't happen.
We're here. Stop.
Get out.
Ouch... ouch...
My back...
Take him inside.
Yes, sir.
Let's go!
The rest of you, follow me and guard the area!
Yes, sir!
Is it safe here?
Excuse me...
It's been a while, Son Taek Soo.
Who...
It's me. I'm the gunman who came to you last time.
If you don't tell me this time...
I'm really going to kill you.
Why are you doing this?
Tell me. Who is it?
Who made you report a lie?
Tell me now who fabricated Park Jin Han's case!
Please spare me!
I already told you last time.
If I tell you, everyone will die.
Do you want to kill my old mother, too?
Because of you, my life fell apart.
Because you reported a lie
my father died...
and my sister was sold as a slave.
And I also spent time in the cold water!
So why do you still think only about your safety? Why?
- So, you are... - Tell me.
I won't wait any longer.
One...
Two...
Three!
I'll tell you!
I'll tell you everything.
When I went to the Court of Justice, everything was ready.
You can just go there and say what we told you to say.
Chief Justice told me what I should do.
And a man fabricated Lord Park's letter in front of my eyes.
Everything happened while Minister Jung Won Ho was watching.
Then Jung Won Ho took a lead on the whole thing?
But why... why would he put faith in you and start the whole thing?
He didn't trust me.
It's not me...
Son Taek Soo! Son Taek Soo!
What happened?
Tell me... who is he?
I heard someone unfamiliar was there in a police uniform and met with Son Taek Soo.
It was a golden opportunity to clear Lord Park's name.
But you... You messed up everything.
I'm sorry. But this has nothing to do with him.
A gunshot came from outside like this...
- Tell me. - Sir, please calm down.
If you don't tell me
I'll consider you as the gunman's informant and lock you up.
What? Informant?
I won't go easy on you anymore.
Hurry up and tell me! Now!
- Is there anyone outside? - Yes!
He's the criminal who hid the gunman.
Lock him up right now!
What?
Wait! If I get locked up right now, it's all over!
Sir! This is not right!
Sir!
- Bro! - Did you find out?
Yes. There is a meeting led by Lord Jung tomorrow.
- He looks like he'll leave home then. - Location?
Here... take a look at this.
This is how Lord Jung will go from his house to the meeting location.
It's at two in the afternoon, so he'll head out before that.
Mr. Hanjo!
Lady Soo In is here.
I heard the news.
It could've been bad for your father.
Yes. Luckily, his life was spared.
Ho Kyung saved him.
What a relief.
Yes. If it wasn't for him, it could've been bad.
I'm grateful to him.
Grateful to him?
Is that all?
What do you mean, 'is that all'?
I mean...
- What I mean is... - Mr. Hanjo!
What's going on?
- The gunpowder technician had an accident. - What?
An explosive went off while he was working!
He's dying! Come quickly!
What happened? What about the technician?
We transferred him to town.
It'll be hard for him to move about for now.
I believe expediting work to meet the deadline caused trouble.
- For now, we'll get more labor... - Labor alone won't do!
We need a technician to meet the goal.
We have to get to the goal before Mr. Yamamoto arrives no matter what happens.
But... we need time to find a new technician, too.
I'll try.
I can do the basics, too.
I learned last time.
Stop the nonsense!
Didn't you just see the technician getting hurt?
It's not for everyone. Don't be in the way.
Yes, you can do it, Soo In!
What are you saying?
Just like she said, she knows the basics.
If the technician helps her a little, she'll be able to do it.
- Isn't that right? - Of course. I can do it.
Please do that. We don't have a minute to waste now.
Alright, I'll think about it.
- Let's leave now. - Yes.
Why did you do something I didn't even ask for?
You have to meet your quantity...
That's none of your business.
I'd like to help you too, Mr. Hanjo.
Thanks to you, I learned the skills.
That's why...
It's a dangerous job. Be careful and don't get hurt.
Yes.
I have so much work to do...
Are you leaving now?
Yes. Are you taking this to Mr. Hanjo?
Yes. Why?
If you're busy, should I take it to him for you?
Here.
I brought your tea.

[Joseon Gunman]
You've come.
Please don't touch Mr. Hanjo.
If Mr. Hanjo dies, you'll lose your only daughter too.
How did you come to this? How...
Be careful, please.
We got a tip that the gunman who killed the officials is hiding here. Take him away!
Let go of me!
