(All people and backdrops are unrelated to history,)
(and the drama is a work of fiction.)
Shoot.
My lady?
Yeo Hwa.
- Are you staying here for the night? - My lady,
hurry!
Gosh, no.
May I briefly step inside?
Oh, dear.
What is the matter?
I apologize, Father.
There was a rat.
I will light the candle again.
You must have gotten a scare.
Were you hurt?
I am fine.
What brought you here this late at night?
I noticed the light and decided to drop by.
- Oh, Father. - Yeo Hwa.
I am okay now.
I suddenly felt dizzy.
It must be because you are always sitting down.
How about we take a walk and get some fresh air?
Yes, Father.
(Episode 6: While You Were Asleep)
Is it not too arduous?
Not at all.
How would I dare say it is arduous?
You and Mother care for me,
and I am always grateful.
I am thankful you think so.
It is warmer during the day,
but at night, the cold and damp air rises from the floor.
You should sleep in your room.
I am grateful for all you do for me.
You took me in when I had no family,
and let me pray for my brother once a year at a temple.
One day, when he returns,
I will tell him we owe it to your grace.
Do you still wait for his return?
I hesitate to say this for fear I offend you,
but how about you stop waiting?
It has already been 15 years.
My brother...
is alive somewhere.
If something...
happened to my brother,
I will get to the bottom of it...
regardless of what it was.
I apologize.
I must have offended you...
by speaking my mind out loud.
Nonsense.
I will also keep it in mind to ask about your brother's whereabouts.
Find the man known as Cho Sung Hoo...
and eliminate him without a trace.
Yes, my lord.
My lord.
Did you look into it?
I checked the flowers in pharmacies on Unjong-ga...
and the ones sold by vendors.
I could not find a match.
I see.
Are you sure you smelled...
the flower's aroma from the deceased's mouth?
It was the same scent for sure.
It reminded me of the scent of a wisteria flower.
My lord!
They all died.
Then...
This is poison.
But the cause of the minister's death...
was blunt force trauma to the head.
Now that we know what this is,
we cannot rule out poison as a cause of death.
I wonder why...
something so dangerous was tucked inside the crossbar.
Then,
the man known as Yong Deok...
must not be the killer after all.
How could he possibly have made the minister consume this?
What did I tell you?
I said this was an act of love.
Did I not say...
that there was a tear-jerking story behind this case?
Did someone not see him meet up with a woman in a mourning dress...
at the shrine?
I heard he was having an affair with a widow.
That ring is mine.
Please take a close look, my lady.
I doubt he is the culprit.
Do you also believe that?
Then, out of love...
Bi Chan,
find out how and when...
the painting came to be in the minister's possession.
Yes, my lord.
If he is not the culprit,
then who...
Did Lady Baek make it out safely?
- She did not want to leave. - Why not?
Because of Yong Deok, that servant.
Mother bit my head off,
I barely got any sleep, and Father almost caught me.
I stayed up all night just to help her, but...
Now that you have given her a way out,
she wants to take her man with him.
But what am I supposed to do...
when her man is a prisoner at the Police Bureau?
Yeon Sun, I am exhausted.
You should get some sleep before Lady Yoo summons you.
Lady Cho.
Lady Yoo has summoned you.
What do you wish to do?
Pardon?
The Minister of Personnel's daughter-in-law has been starving herself.
You should also show some kind of action.
I was thinking about visiting the wife...
of the Minister of Finance with some milk porridge.
The wife of the Minister of Finance?
"A good deed, though small, will always do good."
"And a bad deed, though small, will always do harm."
You constantly remind me of that.
So rather than obsessing over something small,
I figured it would be wiser to show kindness.
It is why I hope to comfort Lady Oh...
who must be wallowing in sorrow.
I see...
that my teachings did not go to waste.
I will comfort her with all my heart...
and lend her my ears.
I must visit Lady Oh and Lady Baek today,
- so let us hurry. - Yes, my lady.
Are these...
the requests that were made regarding the execution of the man...
who killed Minister Yeom?
Has there even been a case...
where a member of the Royal Court was murdered by a servant?
If it is not met with a severe punishment,
the authority of the Royal Court will plummet...
and the Royal Family might also be in danger.
I heard it was a simple case of theft.
I doubt that would damage the reputation of the court and my family.
A world where a child does not respect his parents,
one where subjects do not respect their monarch,
and one where servants do not respect their masters.
If you do not fear that, then what do you see as a danger?
I never thought the case was this serious.
As you suggest, he must be sentenced to beheading.
(Chamhyeong: An execution by beheading)
However,
I cannot issue it right away.
Regardless of his class, I can only make that decision...
after he has had his three trials.
Due process, you say?
But this man is as good as a traitor.
Of course.
I guess it will not be an issue.
It is the beheading of a mere servant, after all.
Do as you wish, Left State Councilor Seok.
Then,
I will proceed as such, Your Majesty.
I am not one...
to deserve you coming by with porridge.
I was worried, that is all.
You should have some even though you do not have an appetite.
How could I possibly eat anything...
when I am a sinner who allowed my husband to die before me?
I appreciate the gesture,
but I cannot eat it at the moment.
Please do so later on, then.
Are you truly...
planning to live by your husband's grave?
I have no choice but to go considering the many eyes that are on me.
You have other family events and the Moran Gathering.
- If you leave... - Until now,
I have participated in many events.
I guess I am allowed to take some time off.
Was it exhausting for you?
It was exhausting,
saddening,
and I felt bad for myself.
Still,
I sometimes had fun.
May I dare ask you something?
Go ahead.
Was the death of the husband...
truly a misfortune...
on your part?
Please lower your voice.
What if someone hears you?
I knew...
you were a lady who spoke your mind,
but I had no idea you would ask me...
point-blank.
I apologize.
Should I find this to be unfortunate...
or not?
What are your thoughts on that?
How could I possibly even think of it?
You and I are the main source of gossip...
that gets chewed harder than dessert during teatime.
A widow who remains faithful to her husband...
whom she has not even met before...
and the wife who cares for a sleaze that is her husband.
Who do you think...
has a better life?
In any way possible,
I will choose to live as myself.
If...
If only I had...
kept you by my side sooner.
I will visit you often...
and be someone you can talk to.
Do not visit me.
I will soon leave to live by his grave...
and will not have time for any guests.
That is how...
I can abide by the nation's code of conduct.
Yes.
My lady, you seemed very awkward just now.
I know that.
I will go to Myungdo Inn after visiting Minister of Finance's home.
Myungdo Inn? Why?
I need to find hard evidence that Yong Deok is not the murderer.
Evidence is not some ornament. Why do you need to go there?
I may find evidence that he is not the murderer.
Who are you talking to?
- Let us hurry. - Yes.
I will go there, so make sure you stay here.
Where?
(Myungdo Inn)
I will meet her and try to persuade her.
Where is she right now?
In a room on the left side, the one on the end.
If she is like that because of her lover,
you better not tell her that he has been taken away.
I heard they had already decided to have him beheaded.
Already?
His crime of murdering the Minister of Finance was too grave,
so he could be executed even tomorrow.
I do not think he will make it.
Yeon Sun.
Please pick up some fine rice cake that Mother loves.
Yes.
What do you want to say in private...
after letting Yeon Sun leave?
That is not what I will do.
Officer Park will be here.
I will meet him once he comes, so please let me do that.
Yes.
I said I would find a way for you to live,
but I heard you refused to leave.
Do you...
know me?
I do not.
Then, how did you know about me and even save my life?
I just help out here and there whenever I can,
so you do not have to think it means anything.
First,
you need to find a way to save yourself.
Is running away...
the way for me to save myself?
If I hid away from everyone...
and simply managed to stay alive, could I call that living?
If I leave home, who will I possibly be?
Will I have a face?
Will I even have a name?
I understand how you feel,
but do you mean you will give up on life?
I was destined to die anyway.
I dreamed a vain dream and prolonged my life,
wishing to live an ordinary life...
after letting my husband pass away before me.
I shall...
gladly accept my punishment.
No one in this world was destined to die.
We did not do anything wrong. Why do we deserve to die?
It is not like we killed our husbands.
Are you also a widow?
So? What do you want to do?
I have a favor to ask.
If you do this for me, I can even die in peace right now.
There is a man named Yong Deok...
who lives in the home of the Minister of Finance.
Please give him this ring.
My mother-in-law already knows everything.
So, he may end up getting hurt too.
Tell him...
I will take good care of myself.
And that...
I wish him happiness until the end of his life.
He will understand once he sees that ring.
Are you sure the ring on that servant, Yong Deok,
really belongs to the minister?
Why do you ask...
such a nonsensical question after visiting me so suddenly?
I need hard evidence that he is surely the culprit,
so please tell me.
The Police Bureau...
has already confirmed him as the culprit.
How can I say anything else as a woman?
How could a servant...
murder his master so brutally?
Officer Park, are you really unable to understand...
how frustrating...
and shocking this is?
I apologize.
I trust...
that you will do a great job handling this case.
My husband's poor soul...
deserves...
some kind of comfort.
I shall do that.
By any chance,
could you tell me...
what the minister ate on the night he passed away?
For example,
he could have had some tea before he went to sleep.
I am not sure.
It was the same as any other day.
My lord.
I brought you some water.
Who brought the water to him?
I brought it to him...
myself.
I see.
I will be back.
Forgive me for not seeing you off.
(Book Rental Shop)
("The Cloud Dream of the Nine")
By any chance,
did Yeon Sun stop by today?
No, she hasn't come by today.
Anyway,
why are you looking for her?
It is not a big deal.
I just needed her to transcribe something for me.
Why did I hide just now?
(Myungdo Inn)
You surprised me.
Where is the young master?
Is he inside?
No, I came alone.
Really?
Did you really come alone?
I cannot tell you.
So please, go on your way.
Look me in the eyes and tell me.
I hate men who tell lies.
If it feels unfair, try to catch me.
Hey!
I have been seeing you quite often lately.
Well... That is...
One would think you have a lover...
and come here to meet her.
A lover?
Why would you say something so terrible? That is not the case.
It was a joke.
You took my joke so seriously,
one would think I got it right.
Lady Jang.
I am a Capital Defense Command officer.
You are out of line.
I apologize.
So,
what brought you here?
I am here to meet her.
- Your lover? - Lady Jang.
Please go inside.
What on earth are you doing here?
You did not expect to see me here?
I am here all day long.
How would I know where you go and what you do?
Let us say that is the case.
Get to the point.
It is not something to ask...
a person who was here all day,
but I sincerely hope you can answer.
Why is he being so scary?
Is he here to confirm who I am?
You are here to talk about the murderer.
Are you...
Yong Deok's lover?
No. He cannot possibly know who I am.
I believe you know a man called Yong Deok.
Are you aware...
that man...
has a lover?
You know everything already?
Then...
He was only trying to protect his lover and was not the true culprit.
I can testify to that.
How could this even happen?
Why on earth?
How could something like this be?
It is true that it is immoral,
but why overreact...
It is not something they should die for.
Even if it is immoral,
you should stick to your mask, why go to the shrine?
It was the water mill.
What?
The water mill?
I saw them at the water mill.
Not the shrine.
Who do you mean by "them?"
The night we rescued the children,
I saw him with his lover.
I see.
His lover is unable to reveal her identity.
That is a relief.
How is that a relief?
I got what I wanted. I shall go now.
You cannot leave like this.
Instead of the lover who cannot reveal her identity,
will you take off your veil...
and testify for them?
As of now, there is nothing you can do.
If someone else is guilty, I will investigate...
and identify the true killer.
If you do not identify the true killer,
must the servant die for no reason?
Can you find the real killer before tonight?
Darn it.
Shoot.
How could this even happen?
Why on earth?
How could something like this be?
How could this even happen?
The payment for this month.
You remember the date despite mourning a dead husband.
I am greatly impressed.
Have you...
heard anything from our lord?
What about?
Well...
Are you afraid he will find out...
how your husband died?
Why did you go and do such a thing?
I procured that...
to use on my husband in the first place.
Have you forgotten?
I used it as planned,
so what is wrong with that?
You used it...
for a much better good...
than to kill your husband with,
and that is why you live in such luxury.
An officer of the Capital Defense Command...
has been showing interest in this case.
Is it...
Officer Park Soo Ho?
You know who he is?
In that case,
things could get very troublesome.
A lowly officer cannot harm me.
Even the dead fool does not know what killed him.
My concern...
is that he gets too nosy and interfering,
and that displeases our lord and master.
I will take care of that.
However,
you should be more careful from now on, Nan Kyung.
"Nan Kyung?"
They say one's lowly birth always betrays them.
I treated you like an equal...
and you truly thought...
you could treat me like an older sister?
I doubt you should treat me this way.
If something were to happen to me,
do you think you would get away unscathed?
I will handle everything so that...
you need not worry about a thing, Lady Oh.
Why are you back so late?
It is almost time for dinner.
Were you with Lady Oh until now?
I apologize, Mother.
On the way back from consoling her...
I heard my husband used to get you this...
whenever he went to Unjong-ga.
I could not return empty-handed when I was in the area.
How dare you go to Unjong-ga during the day?
Go and kneel in the shrine until I say you are done.
Yes, Mother.
This is what my son...
used to get me because it was his favorite.
Oh, my fine rice cakes.
How much?
Ten for five pun.
Good.
I will take 20. No, wait.
Give me 30.
Sure.
I have not had these in a while.
Where do women tend to gather?
If you want to meet women,
you should head to Myungdo Inn...
at the end of Unjong-ga.
Come on, it looks fine.
Myungdo Inn?
That was harsh of Lady Yoo.
You bought it just for her.
How could I blame her for my shortcomings?
Why would you say that when no one is listening?
Yeon Sun.
At least my mother-in-law...
does not lock me up hoping that I will starve to death.
Also, if you think about it,
she is not entirely wrong.
You might receive the Chastity Gate at this rate.
I will head down and get you something to eat.
After losing my husband,
I made up my mind to take my own life as well.
I heard it was custom,
and it was what my mother-in-law wanted.
Sometimes I was handed a silver knife,
and sometimes...
I was handed silk fabric in the morning.
However,
it was not as easy to take my own life.
That is why you should find a way to live.
You should find a way until you are completely out of options.
I will be of aid.
I only ask out of curiosity.
Husband,
do you not wish for me to find my own way to live?
Do you want me to follow you to the grave?
Living...
rather than dying.
For now, I will choose to save the lives of others.
Where have you been...
My lord, you should be grateful.
I walked around the entire Capital for your sake.
How dare you raise your voice when you ran off while on duty?
But Lady Yi Kyung was adamant about seeing you today.
Good job.
Did you...
just compliment me?
Bi Chan.
Yes, my lord.
Who do you think murdered the Minister of Finance?
It would be faster to find someone who did not have a grudge against him.
Who had access to his painting...
and could have him consume poison?
His wife?
Gosh, what did I just say?
How dare I doubt the Queen Dowager's niece?
Either way,
it will not be easy to find the real culprit.
If you do not identify the true killer,
must the servant die for no reason?
Can you find the real killer before tonight?
Someone that impatient...
Bi Chan,
head to Myungdo Inn and see what they are up to.
Myungdo Inn and not Pil Inn?
- This is a pressing matter, so hurry! - Yes, my lord.
Will you be all right?
I am not breaking him out of prison,
so do not seem too worried.
But this is the Police Bureau.
He has been sentenced to beheading,
and there is no time to think.
Where is the tonic?
Are you sure about this?
It will work for sure.
And I have already bought off a physician.
But are you heading there in that outfit?
My lord.
The head merchant of Myungdo Inn left with a veiled woman...
and headed to the Police Bureau.
Are you sure it was the Police Bureau?
Yes.
That is where I will go, so head back to Myungdo Inn.
- What? - And inform me of any more news.
Head Merchant Jang.
Have you been well?
I came to ask for a small favor.
What kind of favor?
A man by the name of Yong Deok was arrested today.
Please let us briefly talk to him.
His mother of old age is on the brink of death,
and her words should be delivered.
The fact that her face is covered only makes me suspicious.
It is to cover a horrifying scar on my face. Please understand that.
I should not allow this.
Make it quick.
Of course.
Who are you people?
How do you have this?
What about Lady Baek?
She is all right.
You must do as I say if you wish to see her again.
Drink this right away.
And do not be alarmed no matter what happens.
- Sorry? - Are you not done?
We are almost done.
Drink it right away.
Do you understand?
Let us go.
Who allowed you to visit the murder suspect?
Well...
So what happened is that...
My lady, please stay back.
It has been a while.
Head Merchant Jang.
What brings you by?
I would like to speak to you in private.
Can we head over there?
Hold it.
- Lower that veil. - Sorry?
I must see your face before this causes any trouble.
I have a horrifying scar on my face...
Show me your face.
What...
I see you are a cheeky one.
Do not just stand there.
This is not how you should treat a lady.
And who may you be?
An officer of the Capital Defense Command.
She is someone I know, so let her leave.
But I must write down who was on site today.
She comes by the Capital Defense for needlework,
so do not mind her.
Of course.
You should get going.
It is well into the night,
so head straight home.
Yes. Thank you, my lord.
Where is your watch commander?
He went that way regarding a personal matter.
Then it will take a while.
I will head out, then.
Tell him I came by.
Of course.
What is she up to?
That smells awful.
What is going on?
Please help me.
I feel like I will die any minute now.
It has been two hours since he began to throw up and get the runs.
Could this be a plague?
- Police Chief! - My goodness!
- Police Chief! - Police Chief!
- There is trouble! - He is ill!
- My lord! - Goodness.
That was a close call.
I could not believe he had the plague.
Stop here.
- Right here. - All right.
- Are you done? - Yes, let us go.
Hey.
Are you all right?
My lady!
He is not really dead, is he?
Goodness, people do not die that easily.
Hey.
Wake up.
See? He is alive.
One, two, three.
Do not cross over the line anymore.
I have come this far already.
I cannot stop here.
I will divert his attention.
Take him and leave safely.
Yes, my lady.
Follow the body.
Is that not our hero?
Follow him now!
Have you all lost your mind?
How dare you handle a heinous criminal who was to be decapitated?
He threw up and had diarrhea all night,
so we called a physician.
He said he had already died of a plague.
We were afraid other prisoners would catch the plague, so we had no choice.
You were afraid you would catch it!
I apologize.
We are all about to lose our lives.
That is hardly the problem!
Stop!
I just asked you to stop.
Stop your horse!
Stop right now!
Stop, my lady!
What did you just say?
I just asked you to stop.
After that.
I already gave you many chances.
Why could you not take a hint...
if you were someone who could do something like this?
He knows exactly who I am.
I am better...
at wielding my sword than a bow.
I do not know what you know,
but everything is a misunderstanding.
Everything you know is far from the truth.
Must I discuss this matter with Left State Councilor tomorrow?
What do you want?
Do you know how serious your crime is?
Have you ever thought about what would happen if you got caught?
Two innocent lives are at stake.
What about your life?
Wait.
Are you worried about me?
It was because everything became complicated.
I was trying to find a way,
but you stole the body as your way,
so my way became useless.
And what if your way goes wrong?
It was all because you did everything rashly!
Thank you for all your help in many ways.
So please, I hope you will...
handle this matter wisely by using the law.
What?
Goodness!
I will see you at Myungdo Inn tomorrow night.
What? Wait!
(Myungdo Inn)
This is bad.
It was somewhere here.
What?
- He is gone. - What are we going to do?
He is not here.
Goodness.
Yoon Hak.
May I come in?
You may.
Why do you look so awful this early in the morning?
There is something I must discuss with you urgently.
Take a seat.
There is a man who was arrested as the murderer of Minister of Finance.
I am aware. I heard he was one of his servants.
I heard testimony...
that he was not the real culprit.
What do you mean?
If he is not the real culprit,
you can let the Police Bureau know and reinvestigate the case.
The witness...
cannot share their identity with the Police Bureau.
Who is this witness?
I cannot...
share that with you.
Was this the one...
you were desperately curious about?
So?
Did you come to me...
to pardon that suspect...
or to help you find the real culprit?
Those are not what I want.
He suddenly passed away...
while he was in detention at the Police Bureau.
What happened?
The bigger problem is this.
His body is gone.
What are you talking about?
And why are you bringing this up?
I wish to ask for your help...
so that the missing body will not become a problem.
What did you say?
My lord! Lord Seok!
How may I help you?
There is something I must share with you.
It is about the servant who killed Minister of Finance.
Last night, he suddenly came down with a plague and died.
A suspect who was to get beheaded suddenly had a plague?
But there is something even more peculiar.
His body is gone.
This has the Police Bureau in a ruckus.
- Come inside. - Yes.
Do you wish to ignore the law and make a personal decision...
in this state matter as a government official...
only because of that person you are curious about?
That is not all.
Do you have a great reason...
to ask me, a government official, for this ridiculous favor...
just because we are family?
Yoon Hak.
Something is suspicious about the Minister of Finance's case.
"Suspicious?"
Look at this autopsy report.
His death was caused by a blow to the head.
However, I witnessed purple spots on his gums and mouth.
Also, I smelled...
something sweet in his mouth, something I had never smelled before.
Did you just say...
it smelled sweet?
I found these in the rails of Minister of Finance's painting.
These gave off the same smell when they were melted in water.
These petals melted?
Yes.
Also, the water seems to become poisonous once the petal melts in it.
For now,
do not tell anyone else about this.
Wait while I find a solution.
Yes, Yoon Hak.
They searched everywhere and could not find it.
Someone took the corpse of Lord Yeom's killer?
Why on earth?
I will hold the Head of Police responsible...
and solve this mystery.
No.
Reprimand the police officers...
that were on guard and wrap it up quickly.
Pardon?
The man was going to be executed.
Who cares how he died?
Word that the Police Bureau lost a corpse...
would only cause rumors to spread among the people.
You have a point.
I will wrap it up as you say.
They took the body of a man to be executed?
Who could possibly be so brazen?
At this rate, everyone but you will know.
I know I was in the wrong.
He is an officer.
A Capital Defense officer of all people.
Do not worry.
I will think of a way to silence him.
Will you kill him without a trace?
I have tried and failed already.
Do you know his weakness?
Would it be worse than mine?
How will you silence him, then?
Honesty and trust...
and...
a pathetic look are my weapons.
What makes you think that will work?
Something makes me think it might work.
It is strange.
What is?
Why did he pretend not to know when he knew?
He even hid my face.
Stop!
He helped me too.
Are you defending him?
Rats and birds.
That is my best option.
So what will you do?
Do I look like I have an idea?
I only wanted to help Lady Baek.
I have a strange feeling that something huge is coming.
Did I...
nudge something I should not have?
Your Majesty.
This is the smell.
This is what I smelled.
This was in the crossbar of Lord Yeom's painting?
Yes, Your Majesty.
I believe he drank this and died.
No one believed me back then. No one believed what I said.
You must stay strong.
We finally found a clue.
Soon, we can find out who was involved.
Your brother was the one who found this out.
Now I must deal with him in person.
I have...
a favor to ask.
What is it?
The servant who was believed guilty seems to be innocent.
It would be best...
if his missing corpse were not to become a problem.
Yes.
They would not wish to cause a scene either.
They will move first...
to try to wrap it up quietly.
From now on,
there is a lot to do.
For me, for you,
and for your brother.
Goodness.
Gosh.
What is the matter now?
What did you do to our hero?
Where did he take the body?
What did you do to our hero?
Your hero resorted to a cheap trick and got away.
There is no way my hero would use a cheap trick.
Because of that hero of yours,
I lost my horse.
I walked all the way from there to here.
Do you know how tiring that was?
All is well if my hero is well.
Was the corpse taken to Myungdo Inn?
How do you know that?
Bi Chan.
From now on, whatever it is I do, if it is just,
would you risk any amount of danger...
to follow me and keep a secret?
However close we may be,
if it involves money or danger,
I am to stay away, my mother told me.
It will help your hero.
Then Bi Chan...
will follow you to the end.
To my death.
Master.
No news of the masked man?
We are looking but...
Last night,
Lord Yeom's killer that was arrested by the Police.
- He died and his corpse disappeared. - What?
The Police Bureau is in uproar because of that.
But fortunately, the ministers said he was going to be executed anyway,
so the case is to be closed.
The body disappeared?
That is preposterous.
I must find out who took it.
Yes, Master. I will find out.
The Head of Police was summoned to the palace.
For solving the Minister of Finance's murder,
he was greatly commended.
I do not get why the Police Bureau...
gets to take all the credit.
It is as good as the criminal saying,
"I am here. Take me."
What did the Police Bureau do?
What did they do to deserve to go to the palace to be commended?
Have you heard?
The Minister of Personnel's widowed daughter-in-law.
She ran away in the middle of the night.
After going to the water mill to...
What did they do there?
Anyway, there is talk...
that her mother-in-law caught her.
Why would you share such vulgar talk?
It is just a rumor.
Because of that, the house was turned upside-down.
I doubt either of the ladies can attend the Moran Gathering now.
My daughter-in-law is modest,
so how dare you force her to hear such things?
You are to shut your ears to that.
Go to our shine and meditate.
Yes, Mother.
(Myungdo Inn)
Right. I will see you next time.
- Have a safe journey. - All right. Goodbye.
- I will see you around. - Sure.
Is this what you want?
I have no intention of letting you lose your life.
But you do intend to report me.
What now?
Did this not work?
I am going to die anyway,
so I will do so in front of you...
Is he not going to stop me?
Seriously? Say something.
I will take my life and...
I will like to be excused.
You are free to take your own life,
but having someone die in my presence is a different story.
How about this, then?
Do you think I cannot do it?
I never intended to die today,
but I guess I have no choice.
Why?
Why are you taking it this far?
("In the End, It Was Her")
Cho Sung Hoo only had one sister...
who married after he disappeared.
She became the eldest daughter-in-law of Left State Councilor Seok Ji Sung.
Her name is Cho Yeo Hwa.
I am the daughter-in-law of Left State Councilor Seok.
The name is Cho...
Yeo Hwa.

(Epilogue)
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Please travel safely.
Let us go.
- Shall we? - Sure.
You also seem to have a story of your own.
I wish for you to survive the tide...
and live the life you want.
We will now leave.
- Sure. - Let us move out.
There was a man and woman...
who were able to spend their first night...
in each other's company.
I heard things heated up here at Myungdo Inn.
Did you provide heating in this weather?
Should I dive into detail?
When a man and a woman who are in love...
come together as one...
No.
Please stop.
They were loud all night, so I thought they would be tired today.
Just like you,
Lady Baek must be one...
to become a different person at night.
(Bamyinatjeo: Prim by day, wild by night)
Prim by day, wild by night?
(Bamyinatjeo)
Recently at Myungdo Inn,
a merchant arrived...
who was decent looking but quite voluble.
According to him,
we would be in danger if we knew his identity.
I am aware that you were there to always help me.
It was only by chance that I got involved.
Those are the people who received help from you.
The name is Joo Yo Sub.
To prevent any reckless decisions,
you are to stay within my line of sight.
How could he possibly keep an eye on me?
It is not like he can barge into our house.
There they are.
I have always wanted to meet you.
Why on earth is he here?
