Forgive me.
Royal Concubine.
Are you making me lose my memory?
Why?
To get back at me for trying to kill your father?
That's your reason
accept me even though I know I'm a murderer?
He is not the Crown Prince!
He's an evil spirit!
Or are you doing that because you are an evil spirit?
Is there any problem?
You look sad.
If everything is fine, I'm relieved.
Honourable.
I will obey your word.
I will stay here until my memory recovers.
The Crown Prince is possessed by an evil spirit.
Is this the punishment?
Punishment for exterminating my family.
What is the punishment for you?
Dad!
Now you are the only noble in this country.
Make sure you stay alive so you can prepare for the future.
Dad
Mother
"Episode Empat"
Why do I keep having a bad feeling?
I feel very restless.
I'm sure the binding ritual went smoothly.
Of all the gods of the east
until all the spirits on the mountain...
"Ak Hee"
Hey, you still not finished?
Keep praying.
What?
You must pray earnestly.
Spirits and gods, please...
No.
I'm sure everything will run smoothly. Yes.
What? Eunuch Neung?
Chung Ta?
If the binding ritual goes smoothly,
he should return to being Sajo Hyun, the Crown Prince.
Eunuch Neung.
Honourable?
You are back, Your Majesty!
You have to wash clothes. How dare you set foot here?
Please, I just...
I'm coming
to pick up some things. Just that.
I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
Buy it
Control yourself.
I will avenge my family, no matter what.
Bring me some more wine.
I said get it again...
You
Yeon Poong Hak's wife.
You are happy?
After wiping out your old friend's family,
you live a life full of unbridled hedonism
made possible by the blood and sweat of the people. You enjoy it?
Do you feel like you have the world at your feet
when you can't even see what's in front of you?
Is anybody there? Anybody?
Lowly beasts are no more despicable than you.
The souls of many people died because of you
will take your life tonight.
You will end up in purgatory,
Hello Seung!
Honourable.
How dare you! Stop it!
Why do you keep haunting me like this?
- Your Highness... - Why you
still roaming the real world?
Honourable.
Did you have a bad dream again?
It's me,
your queen, Your Majesty!
Honourable!
Call the government doctor now.
It was just a dream, Your Highness.
It was all just a dream, Your Majesty.
I have to drink.
Bring me wine.
Your Majesty, it is very late.
Your Majesty, I will give you acupuncture treatment.
- Please rest. - Bring me wine right now!
Alcohol! Bring it to me now!
- Now. - Honourable.
Bring me wine!
- Your Honour. - Good grief.
Bring wine and snacks! Didn't you hear that?
Honourable.
- I'm in a lot of pain. - Honourable.
Honourable.
I have ordered food and drinks to take away.
Please be patient.
You can relax immediately.
Move faster, Stupid!
Yoongi, you are the best. You're the only one I have.
Really, Your Highness?
Our Prince Yoong is the best, right?
Yoong we stand guard in the next room every night.
Because you're afraid something will happen to you.
Honourable.
Lord. What is it?
It's nothing.
Ha Rang.
Mr. Yang
You left this behind.
I failed the mission and lost my memory.
I can't go back yet.
I will do it.
Even if it means I return the corpse, this time
I will kill Sajo Seung.
Royal Concubine.
You are even more beautiful today than during the throne-giving ceremony.
The Crown Prince must treat you well.
Yes. Her face was as beautiful as the Lagerstremia Indica flower.
Thank You.
He is the son of the king.
Why would the king's son support a group of assassins?
Because of his humble birth?
You were nowhere to be seen last night.
I'm sure you don't care whether your father lives or dies.
- I ask... - Your Majesty.
The Crown Prince was unwell last night.
Just forget it.
What good is a weak man?
If you have finished greeting father, go.
Good, Your Highness.
Honourable.
You feel uncomfortable here?
From up here to down here.
It felt as if I had been stabbed.
Then, how
if you press like this where you feel the most pain?
How dare you, Royal Concubine?
Remember your position.
Honourable.
Will you help?
Do it yourself.
Didn't you hear me?
Come here and do it yourself.
Look at you. The pain got worse.
Step aside.
Royal Concubine.
Hang in there, Your Highness.
How do you feel, Your Highness?
It can't be like this.
- Call a healer... - How strange.
It was as if the pain was gone.
Royal Concubine.
You studied medicine?
My concubine
interested in medicine as a child,
and he studied it in his spare time.
Is that so? Extraordinary.
You study in your free time,
but you are more skilled than my healer.
Looks like the palace has another great healer.
I feel happy.
Honourable.
Was I interested in medicine when I was little?
I don't know.
You've lost your memory.
I have to find an excuse.
Oh it's like that.
- Thank You. - I should be the one thanking you.
Because of you, I earned points with the King.
But the Crown Princess will be dissatisfied.
Is this the Crown Prince or an evil spirit?
What are you thinking about?
Since yesterday.
You want to know I'm an evil spirit or not?
Of.
Kasim Neung said you changed your personality
every time you sleep.
So...
Who do you think the man is
who is standing in front of you right now?
I don't know.
I don't know which evil spirit it is,
but I noticed your body temperature is different.
My body temperature...
Sometimes it feels icy.
Sometimes it is hot to the touch.
In that case,
what about now?
Now...
You are neither hot nor cold.
Is it true?
Very interesting.
Whoever you are, I can't forgive you.
If you are an evil spirit, you will have to pay for erasing my memory.
If you're the crown prince,
You must pay for being the son of my enemy.
Road!
Hong Gun, are you okay? Good grief. Stand up.
Can you stand?
What is this?
I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
I'm in a hurry.
Just forget it. It doesn't matter.
Lord.
Yes, Your Highness.
Just forget it.
Gye Ra. Is there something you want to say to me?
If so, see you soon.
Road!
Road.
Honourable?
Sajo Yoong. He tried to kill me.
Why does he want me dead?
Just in case I hurt Wind Dagger?
Watch out. Someone will come to kill you.
Does Mr. Yang agree to it?
Did he act without Mr. Yang's knowledge?
Or...
What sir betrayed us?
Miss Wol!
Who should I trust?
Who's that?
Why so long?
I told you I wanted a quick answer.
Tell me what happened.
The binding ritual worked, didn't it?
That's going well, isn't it?
No?
Unlucky!
I have to run away.
Don't say you saw me.
Good grief. Mr Ak Hee!
Happy
The binding ritual worked!
Congratulations!
Why are you shaking with fear when congratulating me?
I am very happy and feel appreciated seeing you
in very good condition.
The sensation of this touching moment made me dance
like this.
By the way, you are not Mr. Ak Hee. Is it true?
You are not him.
He is not Mr Ak Hee.
That!
Succeed!
I did it!
Extraordinary!
How dare you lie to me?
How dare you make plans with Ak Hee
to bind my soul?
No.
It's not what you think.
Look at you. You're back, right?
I used up all my energy
to help you back.
Come on. Talk to me.
You shouldn't have kept this a secret from me.
I don't know.
I was really worried about the binding ritual.
I can't sleep
or eat.
You're the only one I think about, Your Majesty.
Good grief. At first I was scared too.
Honourable?
It's really you, isn't it?
Gosh, Your Majesty. You always tease me!
I hate it when you do that.
I forbid him from telling you.
Seeing the way you set me free,
You can easily lock me up again as you like.
So, I secretly watched you for a while.
Good grief. Lock you up again?
I cant do that.
For the binding ritual, once the spirit is confined,
he couldn't escape.
- Chung Ta. - Ya.
Why did Ak Hee erase my royal concubine's memory?
I don't have an answer for that.
He got Suma incense from you and used it to erase his memory.
not?
Good grief. Let me express my opinion.
Mr Ak Hee
applaud your concubine.
He erased his memory
so he could pretend that they were passionate lovers.
There's something else you didn't tell me. Say.
This is all I know.
Even so,
why did you erase that woman's memory?
Why did you do that, Mr Ak Hee?
What are my options?
If he had his memory,
it would take away our chance to be together.
Think about it.
How could he like the son of his family's arch enemy?
But still! You can't mess with fate.
That's not allowed.
Up to you. I can't do anything.
By the way, only you and I know about this secret.
So, don't tell anyone about this.
I will end your career as a shaman. You've been warned.
I can't tell you.
You know more. Tell me what you know.
I can't.
What? Say.
- Say! - I can't tell you!
What?
What's this?
Chung Ta is getting better at his tricks now.
Hey! You!
Are you showing off because you are a much sought after shaman?
Hey! Come on.
What?
Chung Ta?
Honourable.
Stay away from your concubine.
Let him go.
If not,
your fate will be in danger.
Please remember this.
What does this mean? Could he be telling the truth?
Gosh. My goodness.
Honourable.
Why did Chung Ta advise you to let go of your concubine?
I understand.
Is it because he is already familiar with that idiot Ak Hee?
Do they seem very familiar?
Like this...
The idiot Ak Hee is very kind to him.
There was so much affection in the way he looked at her.
So
does he like it too?
Maybe.
When that idiot Ak Hee goes around pretending
be you,
she might fall in love with him at first sight.
He might use your good looks as a way
to tease him.
That idiot Ak Hee.
- Eunuch Neung. - Yes, Your Majesty.
It's true that Ak Hee is an evil spirit.
But he once lived in my body.
Hearing you call him stupid Ak Hee bothers me.
Gosh, Your Majesty. This is my fault.
Come on.
My mouth is damn.
You have to watch your words.
- Your Honour! - Come on.
Ji Jeon!
Hey, Ji Jeon!
Okay. Good grief.
You know I can't jump alone.
Are you really Ak Hee's lover?
Have you gone back to being a fool?
Do you look like a real man because your madness has taken over you?
I will change.
I will surpass that fool, Ak Hee.
Honourable.
We have tightened security,
but the poor continue to steal and burn
non-stop.
Tightening security is only a temporary measure.
Distribute additional aid rice
to the poor is
wise solution in my opinion.
That is also a temporary measure.
Honourable.
The people rioted
because they cannot stand living in poverty.
The aid rice would not be enough to calm them down.
Teach them how to make food
instead of giving them a bowl of rice
fit for a wise king.
Therefore, instead of punishing criminals with flogging,
punish them by making them cultivate the barren land.
For the harvest obtained from cultivating empty land,
whatever the harvest,
if Father allows them to take 80 percent of the harvest,
they will no longer steal or burn
even if Father forces them.
Your Majesty, cultivating wasteland means...
Prime Minister.
Yes, Your Highness.
We will proceed according to the Crown Prince's advice.
So close today.
Honourable.
What's wrong with you?
I didn't see anything wrong
with the Crown Prince attending the Government House meeting.
In the past, you never attended these meetings.
"Then, do you plan to continue attending these meetings?"
In that case,
I will definitely save a place for His Highness.
You asked the wrong question, Prince Yoong.
My duty is to assist His Majesty
as he chairs a meeting with the Royal Council.
Do I need your permission to work?
Sajo Hyun.
You're a stupid person who doesn't know anything.
How dare you look down on me.
No!
No.
There must be a way.
We have to get here, but the road is rough.
Therefore, we will...
Sajo Yoong has prepared a secret army?
Stay away from your royal concubine.
Let him go.
If not,
your fate will be in danger.
Are you out for a walk?
Yes, I feel trapped.
It's normal to feel trapped.
You are trapped in this palace.
You don't have to feel confined anymore.
Leave the palace.
I told you I wouldn't go.
Why?
Because I want to stay with His Majesty.
But I might be an evil spirit.
If you are an evil spirit,
you will try to restrain me.
Why?
Because evil spirits are fake.
Your greed will stop you from doing the right thing.
“Greed”, you say?
You mean, the greed to keep you by his side?
Isn't that lust, not greed?
Is the lust of an evil spirit confusing you?
Are you so thirsty for love?
You have gone too far, Your Highness.
Go away.
I don't want to see you again.
I can't go.
I have officially become your concubine.
If you want me to go,
I ask Your Majesty
kicked me out mercilessly.
I will wait.
You'll find out soon
the evil spirits you love are helpless creatures.
I will definitely watch as you realize it.
Mountains?
Of.
According to rumors, he roams the mountains.
He returned at sunset
with dirt on his face.
Why did he do that?
I don't know.
His Majesty has not visited his room at all.
I think that made him angry.
So, he wanted to calm down.
Your Majesty, I'm back.
Good grief! I said I'd take care of it.
I'm almost done.
Why did the Crown Princess call you?
The problem is
The Crown Princess said
you can't go out from tomorrow.
He was worried that something might happen to you.
Is that so?
- You're going to make a potion? - Yes.
- Let me... - No, I can.
- What do you mean? Good grief. - It doesn't matter. I can.
You have dirt on your hands, Your Majesty.
I have to keep fanning this.
The royal concubine's residence smells of medicinal herbs.
He must have made a potion for His Highness.
That explains why he was wandering around the mountains.
Good grief!
Gosh, what happened?
Honourable.
There is a problem.
The ingredient...
What's wrong with that? Did you spill it?
How do you know?
This cannot be fixed.
What do you mean?
His Highness struggled to find the herb.
This is the herb.
I stayed up late to prepare this.
What Your Majesty knows
something like this will happen?
Hong Gun.
Can you confirm that His Majesty accepts this?
- This is from my concubine? - Yes, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty, I will wait for you in front of His Majesty's room.
You're here.
When do you plan to go?
When are you going to kick me out?
I prepared a potion for His Majesty.
I called you here so we could present this together.
You offered to help me win His Majesty's heart with that potion?
You're trying hard to get my attention.
Am I starting to attract His Majesty's attention?
I'm pleased to hear it.
Forgive me.
I don't believe you're that kid.
Your Majesty, this medicine
will help calm your body and mind.
Will this calm me down?
Or will I end up in a coffin because of that? I don't know.
Please forgive me. Then, let me taste it first.
He wandered in the forest
to search for these medicinal herbs for His Majesty.
If Your Majesty doesn't want to, let me eat it.
You stupid.
I see you're crazy about him.
I think you're going to be a grandfather soon.
Satisfied?
He will be a grandfather soon?
You feel uncomfortable, Your Majesty?
I feel fine and relaxed.
Maybe it's because of your herbs, but my headache also disappeared.
Pleased to hear it.
Crown Prince.
Yes, Your Highness.
Can father call your concubine sometime?
As father's personal healer.
You mind?
Of course not. Call me whenever you need me, Your Majesty.
Looks like you're the head of the royal family.
I asked the Crown Prince,
and the Crown Prince asked you.
Doesn't that make you responsible?
You flatter me, Your Majesty.
Royal Concubine.
You look familiar.
Is it true?
You are very similar to someone.
Someone I know well.
Of.
I mean him.
The fool I know well.
My son!
They say couples grow to be alike.
His Royal Highness, Prince Sajo Yoong came.
Tell him to come in.
Honourable.
Am I disrupting family gatherings?
I'll come back later.
Do not bother. Say what you want to say, then go.
I just got a report from the hunters.
Red wolves and wild boars in the north
towards the capital.
It's not time yet.
The fires on Mount Baekhwa pushed them south.
They will pass through the Capital around dawn tomorrow.
Is that so?
Well then, we have to hunt.
Yes. I will arrange it, Your Majesty.
Will you join us, Your Highness?
You did very well in the previous hunt.
Forget the Crown Prince.
He was not in the mood.
- Yes, that's the best. - I will participate.
Don't force yourself, Your Highness.
I am grateful that you care about me so much.
Your stupid brother
would overexert themselves during the hunt.
Please help me.
Stings.
Forgive me.
It doesn't matter.
I told them to ban everyone.
You only practice indoors?
Just because the King praises you,
you decided to ignore me?
Forgive me.
I don't like the sound of arrows.
When I practice outside,
his voice was too clear.
The sound of arrows tearing through the air.
How will you get through tomorrow's hunt?
I don't know. The evil spirit might help me.
Wind
just the wind
Wherever you are, try to focus on yourself.
Look straight ahead. Don't waver.
The sound of air being torn will fade away.
Do you feel calmer now?
When will you leave?
As long as you're here,
I'll feel restless.
It had been a long time since father had hunted with father's son.
Dad felt very happy.
I feel the same way, Your Majesty.
A wild boar was spotted on the western mound!
Okay. We're racing!
Come on!
Wind
just the wind
Wherever you are, try to focus on yourself.
Look straight ahead. Don't waver.
The sound of air being torn will fade away.
Stop!
It fell.
The Crown Prince felled a wild boar!
Do not do this. Prince Yoong!
The Crown Prince finally succeeded!
Where?
Honourable. His Highness looked surprised.
Prince Yoong caught the wild boar.
Not me.
Honourable.
The Crown Prince almost got it.
I'm just helping him.
Honourable.
Next time, I will aim for your forehead.
If you mock my son again.
I'm sorry, Your Majesty.
You stupid.
I'm ashamed of you, Dad.
just like you are ashamed of yourself.
You should follow in father's footsteps
and lead Asatae.
What is this nonsense?
No. This is Mom's.
I want to give this to Mom.
It has been more than three months since he died.
Haven't you realized yet?
I want to give that to him.
That's his birthday present!
Let go dad!
I know why Dad made him drink poison.
That
not because Mom is jealous of Yoong's mother.
- What did you say? - That
because he told Dad the truth.
Dad couldn't stand her honest comments.
So, Dad...
What did dad do?
Come on.
What did dad do?
Say it.
What did dad do?
Say.
Answer dad before dad rips your mouth open.
- Say! - I...
I'm ashamed of Dad.
Come on. This is great!
Hell, no.
All right. Let's drink again.
Come on. Don't drink too much.
Hey. What about me?
- Come on. - Good grief.
What are you doing here?
When I pass by,
I saw Lagerstremia Indica blooming beautifully.
I didn't know there were flower trees here too.
Good night.
You can stay
A moment.
Today is the anniversary of my late mother's death.
I don't know.
No one knows.
No one can remember it.
You shouldn't...
do it.
General Yeon Poong Hak is your best friend.
You destroyed his entire family
including his young daughter.
Shut up!
Bad woman policy.
Don't just stand there.
Make him drink poison again!
Mother
Mom!
How was the hunt today?
Back to the beginning.
Everything goes back to the beginning.
I assume the evil spirit isn't helping you.
There are no evil spirits now.
A shaman named Chung Ta bound his spirit.
You don't need to believe me.
You can just hate me.
Technically,
I'm the reason you ended up here.
The evil spirit from my body likes you
and make you live in the palace.
If what you say is true,
why is it your fault?
The evil spirit took over my body
because I'm stupid.
I told you I always practice archery indoors
because I don't like the sound of arrows ripping through the air.
Every time I hear that voice, that day flashes through my mind.
I saw this one house when I was little.
A scene of carnage.
Swords flew, tearing the air.
I heard their screams
and saw their dead bodies.
I saw a little girl at home that day.
I'm sure he's dead.
I couldn't save him
like I failed to save my mother.
I still remember his eyes clearly
especially when I heard the sound of air tearing.
That's why I was punished by god.
So, an evil spirit has taken over my body.
He remembered that day.
He was hurt by what happened, just like me.
Please be careful, Your Highness.
I'll call your servant.
No need!
You take care of me well.
I don't need anyone else.
Thank you for your complement.
Then, let me accompany you.
- Yoong. - Yes, Your Highness.
You are very reliable.
Thank You.
But it stops here.
What did you say?
I forbid you from challenging my son.
- Honourable. - You know right.
That I have many illegitimate children all over this country.
That's what you are, illegitimate child.
Only Sajo Hyun is my biological son, because he is my legitimate son.
"It should be the other way around."
Didn't you say that?
That I should be your legitimate son.
You said I should be the Crown Prince.
Do you really believe that?
Don't you know I only said that to wake up my son?
You are very cruel to me.
What else can I do?
I have to try as hard as I can
so that you accept me as your son?
What a poor child.
Why keep pretending to forget the truth that we both know?
You are not even my biological son.
You think I don't know?
I accepted you when I found out you were not my child
and make you a prince,
So, I'm sure I've done a lot for you.
You don't agree?
I have to sleep now.
The Crown Prince Consort takes good care of me.
Thanks to him, I sleep like a baby
and feeling very calm lately.
I told His Majesty that Yoong is his child.
He lay with me, even though he knew I was your wife.
He trusted me.
Good. This is for the best for everyone's sake.
You are even more beautiful after becoming a royal concubine.
- What? - Why are you behaving like this?
What if Yoong sees us?
You said Yoong played near the river.
Come on. Come here.
Good grief.
You should grow a beard.
- You look like Yoong now. - Is it true?
Wait a minute.
I do not believe it.
He is Ak Hee's lover.
But Ak Hee is gone now.
Royal Concubine, I've been thinking hard.
Expel you mercilessly opposite
with the rules of the Inner Palace.
You can stay if that's what you want to do.
You can stay by my side, Royal Concubine.
- You can stay... - Your Highness.
Her Highness the Crown Princess has come.
Lord Crown Princess, what's wrong?
Your Majesty, do you know who your real royal concubine is?
What do you mean?
She is the only daughter of General Yeon Poong Hak
who was executed for treason ten years ago.
Her real name is Yeon Wol.
What? Who said that nonsense?
I was told that he definitely had this dagger.
You should search the royal concubine's residence
and interrogate him.
Calm down, Crown Princess.
I'll take care of this,
So, please keep this a secret for now.
However, he might harm His Majesty while we wait.
Where is he now?
Thanks to you, I sleep like a baby.
I've never had a bad dream.
I'm glad to hear that, Your Majesty.
It's rare that I truly trust someone
to take care of me, even the royal physician.
Only Ak Hee knows if he is a murderer or not.
Only Ak Hee knows what happened in His Majesty's bathroom
that day.
Is that why Ak Hee
erase his memory?
Does that mean he knew everything from the start?
Forgive me.
Honourable.
There's something I want to say to you.
I will obey your orders.
I will go.
Are you leaving?
You said you would stay here
until I throw you out.
I did say that.
However,
there's something else I said before that.
I said I'd leave once I got my memory back.
My memory
already returned.
Your memory? When did it happen?
A while ago.
You kept it a secret from me?
You know who you really are,
but you hid it from me?
So...
That day, was it all pretend?
- That day... - What's your name
Yeon Wol?
You're going to say you've never heard that name?
Even when your memory comes back?
So, do you know who I am?
Do you really
the assassin who sneaked in to kill His Highness?
Say.
Now.
Of.
Did you keep it a secret from me even after you recovered your memory
because you want to harm His Majesty?
Deny that. Say it's not like that.
You tricked me.
I'm honest with my feelings.
Why?
Honourable!
Your Highness, I have to tell you something.
Honourable...
Honourable.
Dad
Dad!
Dad
Dad!
Dad
Dad!
You.
How dare you...
How dare you do this.
Not me.
"Love Song for Illusion"
"'Under the Moon' oleh Sohyang"
I can't forgive you.
Who killed the King?
- I'm not afraid of death. - Your Honour!
I'm just sad that you suspect me, Your Highness.
Sajo Hyun, you are going to kill yourself tonight.
You will hang yourself because the pain is too much.
Sajo Hyun.
The Crown Prince has ordered the murderer's beheading.
Mother father.
We will meet again soon.
