Rats are not the problem.
Hey,
you...
What's with these sleeping habits of yours?
Episode 6 Pounding Heart.
Episode 6 Silk Tree.
Are you the strange one for being able to sleep?
Or am I the strange one because I'm unable to sleep?
What are you doing?
What do you mean? I can't stand it because this place is so dirty.
Oh, I thought you were jumping on me,
-I almost make that mistake. -Me?
"The sinner dares to get angry?"
Let's not argue about our positions first thing in the morning.
How about snoring less? You were so noisy, I got no sleep at all.
If you knew what you did to me last night...?
I made that trap. What's it doing over there?
It's because there's a real rat somewhere else.
Is it because you're scared of rats?
I can solve that for you.
If you don't want to, never mind.
Who said I didn't want to?
Now they can't come anywhere near you.
Can you... make another of that?
That's not Hungry Bird.
He probably works for him, though.
How did you know he would come?
This is the place Matchmaker Do told me about, but somehow he knew
and hid himself quickly.
But... the place was still heated
and there was a lot of food left.
So he must've come back to confirm if we had left.
Wh-what do you want?
Okay, let me summarize so I don't waste time.
First, if you tell me the location of your boss
I'll undo that for you.
What empty words... you think you can deal with Hungry Bird?
My hyung-nim! Will come to save me!
No...
Two, if you don't talk,
the poison will spread throughout your body and you will die.
Look at your foot.
P-poison?
Looking at your state, you have about 15 minutes left.
Your hyung-nim better come save you before that.
Oh yeah.
Don't forgot to tell him to come get this.
Stop telling lies.
Aren't you getting chills.
Your lips will become dry, and your tongue will become numb.
You'll get cold sweats soon.
Gosh!
This guy is just like he looks.
You can see, right? He looks so ruthless and cold-hearted.
Hurry up and tell him! You need medical attention!
You're going to die!
No!!
You're sweating...
Your Highness, while receiving care
from the palace maid who stayed with him last night.
His Majesty is cosily eating breakfast with her.
Those who conquer the world are men, and those who conquer men are women, they say.
We must have a hair ornament made right away.
And alert the herbal doctors and have them prepare deer antlers tonic.
Yes, Your Highness, I will tell them to give the tonic to the palace maid.
Me! Me!
You know how much I've suffered to find a girl for the king?
Look at my skin, and how it sags.
Yes Your Highness, we'll let the herbal doctor know immediately.
King, you're being too much.
I can't do this anymore.
I'm not sick!
How long do I have to do this for?
I can't do anymore!
You're too much, King!
I'm going to get sick at this rate.
I made ink for you all night, my hands are all stiff now.
How can you not sleep at all?
I'm so sorry, it's because I was in a rush.
Why don't you eat this, Sae Ah?
This is Eunuch Jang, may I come in?
Eunuch Jang, what is the matter?
If you are done with breakfast, shall I bring you some tea?
Yes, I've exerted myself a bit last night.
I will bring you some more food, then.
Sure, if you like.
Antidote...
Please give me the antidote.
Here.
Oh, antidote!
What if he loses it? How can you throw the antidote?
That thing?
It's water from the well.
But he was getting chills?
-Isn't it morning? -What about his cold sweats?
His foot was caught in a trap. I'm sure he got a cramp.
By the time he takes the antidote, his cramp will be relieved.
Wow, you are a swindler.
Now let's go meet the real swindler.
Is that you, Chae Dol?
This idiotic girl came here herself. Did you find your brother?
You crook, give me my 30 nyang!
I'll catch that guy myself.
Don't hold me back!
I have no intention of holding you back, but strangely, I feel some guilt.
Because if you get hurt, I may have to annihilate his entire family.
What?
Anyway, I stopped you.
So anything that happens from here on out isn't my responsibility.
Make sure you tell them that.
Who are you talking about?
There's someone. Someone like Hong Gil-Dong whose name I can't say.
You little!
Oh my...
I thought you were just a pampered nobleman, but you sure can fight.
Oh!
Hey! Hey, you! Stop! Hey!
Stop right here! Hey, stop!
Hey, stop right there! Hey, stop!
Hey, I won't leave you alone when I get you!
Oh, that tenacious wench. If your head is dumb,
your hands and feet are the ones that suffer.
That's what I'm saying.
Your hands and feet suffering isn't a problem, but me suffering is.
Oh my, how did you already-
W-Who are you that you keep following me around?
I don't recall owing you any money.
You don't need to know. You just need to answer one thing.
Where did you sell the arrowhead that you stole from Chang-san-dang?
Someone died from that arrowhead.
Do you want to face murder charges as well?
W-What do you mean by murder charges?!
My only crime is selling it.
So you admit that you sold it.
So I have your confession now.
Let's go while I'm still being nice.
As expected, holding hands is a little...
This tenacious punk. Do you think I will let you catch me?
Don't come any closer!
Arrowhead or whatever, I don't know anything.
Do you think you can catch them by catching me?
Tell that to the police.
All I did was deliver the arrowhead!
Do you know what type of people those guys are?
They don't make any noise, they don't even have faces. They are really high up.
If you mess up, you'll end up dead.
I thank you for worrying about me,
but why don't you watch yourself first?
This guy, until the very end-
I told you to watch yourself first.
Are you okay?
What now?
Oh, they're here.
It's this guy. Take him!
Aish, how unlucky.
You think you can't find your brother because of me?
Don't be mistaken. It's because you have bad luck!
And your husband is lying dead somewhere because of you!
You talk a lot for someone who stole someone else's money.
But what can we do?
But what can we do? Since you got caught by an unlucky brat,
you can't come out until you repay my 30 nyang!
Do you know how well protected I am... ahhh!
If it were me, I would get rid of guys like you first.
So if you want to live, tell me who the people protecting you are.
At least your life will be safe if you do.
Do you think I can be fooled?
If you can't trust us then there's nothing that we can do.
Watch your back.
Who knows if there will be poison in your food?
Isn't that the hair ribbon from last time?
You know, the one that the handsome guy picked out?
The red ribbon suits you so well.
Just so he could give it to an ignorant brat like that, he came onto me?
What should I do about this?
Throw it away.
What?! This perfectly normal-
...Yes.
What about that spy I told you to bring me?
About that... If you want to know, he said to come personally.
He dared to tell a nobleman's daughter to come to a courtesan house?
Yes, he said that the curious person must come herself.
If you're in a hurry, we can go right now-
How can a noblewoman go to a courtesan house where the lowly ones go?
If you don't know then it's fine. You can leave.
This perfectly normal piece. I should try it on.
-It's so pretty. -It's pretty.
You surprised me, you half-wit. You may be dumb,
but you know what's pretty.
Yeah, it's pretty.
Our Gae-Ddong is also pretty!
I want to give our Gae-Ddong that too!
I don't care if it's Gae-Ddong, so Cow-Ddong get lost.
Won't you get lost?! Get lost.
-I said get lost! -It's pretty...
Don't smile and get lost.
Your Majesty, the people are suffering due to a bad harvest this year.
Please lower the taxes temporarily.
To ease the burden on the people.
That cannot happen. Lower the taxes?
So we reduce taxes and the people pay one 'dwe' less.
But it will only amount to a few extra meals.
How is this beneficial for the people?
That you would even suck the sweat and blood of the people
to make sure your belly is full, isn't that what you are saying?
Prime Minister, do you know how much one 'dwe' is?
How would I not know?
I'm not asking the amount,
I'm asking about you saying that it will only amount to a few meals.
Do you know how we ate one 'dwe' of wheat while I was a subject?
We were afraid to waste one 'dwe' of wheat so we divided it into many portions.
We added water to made porridge out of it, to stretch the amount.
Then when it wasn't enough, we made soup out of it,
and that was how we filled our bellies.
That is what one 'dwe' is worth to the people.
I understand your feelings, Your Majesty.
But taxes are an obligation that the people must rightfully assume.
Then what is the duty of the state?
I lived as a subject for a long time.
The subjects only want one thing.
Not expecting to be full, but at least not starving either.
Not starving them is your job. So...
please reconsider the reduction of taxes.
-Yes, Your Majesty. -Yes, Your Majesty.
We thought he was a weak moron who knew nothing of political affairs.
We took him too lightly.
We sent away the Head of the Royal Guard
and we cut off his hands and feet, so this should all be wrapped up shortly.
Since it seems that he wants to act as a king for the time being,
we should let him be.
What happened to the palace maid who was allowed into the bedchambers?
Don't worry about that at all.
I heard he called for her again.
Rather the 'game' of Prime Minister
the 'game' of woman will become much more interesting.
You want me to be the envoy for you, Young Master?
I heard that the envoy for the 'nap chae' should be a family member.
But in my family, there is just me.
Please bring my 'nap chae' to Maiden Choi's house.
Why entrust such an important task to me?
That's right, Lord. You should ask Big Unni to do it instead.
She hasn't even mastered the marriage customs yet,
how can you entrust her with something so important?
If it were not for you, I wouldn't have mustered the courage.
So this is all thanks to you.
So I really hope that you can do this for me.
Can't she do this?
What other reason would there be?
The envoy is someone who delivers the groom's feelings to the bride.
What do you think?
Huh?
You think you can't find your brother because of me?
Don't be mistaken. It's because you have bad luck!
And your husband is lying dead somewhere because of you!
I don't want to.
I won't do it.
If you don't want to, don't do it. Why are you throwing a fit?
See that? Three Months is so rude.
Hey Newbie, how have you been?
Did you ignore me just now?
My face isn't one that can be ignored that easily.
Then... ♫ As though simultaneously ♫
♫ the sun and moon cannot rise ♫
Mr. Matchmaker. ♫ It is said ultimately both cannot meet. ♫
Instead of people,
can you also find corpses, too?
Why? Are you afraid that your groom became a corpse?
Scholar Lee may not know the situation
but why are you so immature, Big Unni?
You know what kind of girl Gae Ddong is, how can you entrust her to be an envoy?
It's not Rock-Head's fault that she was abandoned. And she wasn't abandoned...
Never mind.
Anyway, why do you dislike her?
Because you keep breaking our rules.
You were always good at separating work from your personal life.
What's with you lately?
Orabeoni,
to be honest, being an envoy,
I wanted to do it.
People called me unfortunate.
So what if everyone becomes unfortunate because of me?
That young lady...
What's wrong, Young Miss?
Never mind, since something was bothering me,
I even see hallucinations.
Hey kids, you were hungry, weren't you?
-Dad! -Dad!
Let's eat.
How did you get such precious food?
-Eat well. -It's been days since we ate.
-Eat a lot. -Yes.
Aigoo, you are eating so well.
Father.
You're home.
-Mother! -Wait up!
Come on in.
-Hi! -My sweeties. Where have you been?
Father.
-Eat up. -It tastes good.
The season is changing, so it's quite cold at night.
Please dress warmly.
Yes, I will.
- Eat slowly.
Ahjussi.
It's very cold.
Don't bother me and get lost.
Wow, you sure have a temper.
Just put this on, as if you don't care.
Ahjussi, think about how sad your family will be if they see you like this.
Gosh.
Family...
Be at ease.
Lord, why have you summoned me?
You see, I.
You see I am constantly worried about His Majesty.
He must be having many difficulties,
having been seated on the throne so suddenly.
And he must miss his life as a subject.
I want to help him so that his life in the palace is without discomfort.
But I don't know him very well.
What are you saying?
Not quick to understand, are you?
I want to understand His Majesty's feelings.
So I need you to report to me all about His Majesty from now on.
Are you asking me to keep him under surveillance?
Surveillance? How dare you say that?
I told you, I want to help His Majesty.
Eunuch Jang, I heard that you've even taken high interest loans
to pay for your father's medical bills.
If you help me so that I can understand His Majesty's feelings better,
I will help your father be treated by a very good doctor.
Did you think you'd get fired for only this much slacking, Gae Ddong?
Did you wait for me?
Of course.
Of course, I did.
You have such a large debt to collect, how can you be idle?
Can you sleep?
Mr. Matchmaker, how nice for you that you are so consistent.
What is that?
Wooden Geese that are given to the bride by the groom as a gift.
I hope that you are the one who delivers this gift.
I can't do that.
Because you are unlucky?
Yes. Yes, I'm afraid I will be unlucky again.
What if an unlucky brat
sticks her nose into someone's good event, and like before...
I have a lot of luck.
Whatever I try, it turns out well. I'm so lucky that my life is boring.
Yes, yes, how nice for you.
I'm full of misfortune, whatever I do, it turns out unlucky.
Give me your hand.
I will share my lucky fate with you
so give me some of your unfortunate fate.
What kind of dog crap (gae ddong) is that?
I have so much luck that my life is boring,
and you have so much misfortune so your life is always tough.
So let's share our fortune and misfortune with each other.
You took my luck, so nothing bad will happen.
As I told you, I am disgustingly lucky, you see.
Oh, take some more of my misfortune...
You, were you awake?
What? I snored so much you couldn't sleep?
-About that... -About that?
It was an accident. A total accident.
And am the only one who was wrong? We are both to blame.
So let's not ask the other to take responsibility.
Both to blame?
But I'm the victim. Why should I take any blame?
I didn't blame him.
Doesn't he realize that I pretended not to know?
Now I will share my lucky fate with you,
so share your unfortunate fate with me.
So shall I try trusting you, Mr. Matchmaker?
[They are writing the "napchaeseo" a letter from the prospective groom's family
[to the prospective bride's family requesting marriage.]
I entrust you with these.
If you want to know, he said you should come to see him yourself.
Seeing you come all the way here like this,
I guess it's your turn to talk to me.
I don't know what your business is, but please be on your way.
I am here on some other business.
I think your business is with me?
I don't think I have any business with you.
If you continue to harass a noble woman, I will report you.
But weren't you here to see a spy?
Then... you are...?
I didn't think you'd really come yourself.
So you are asking me to investigate the background of the king?
Yes.
A daughter of a nobleman comes to a courtesan house in broad daylight,
asking for the king to be investigated.
Then let's see that precious face of yours.
Why do you hide this beautiful face of yours?
You weren't a spy, but a harasser.
Why are you in such a rush?
Alright, I will look into what you want, so come back in 10 days.
-The price... -I take deferred payments.
Then...
You will need to come again yourself.
In all my life,
this is the first time a woman dares to ask to investigate the king.
Isn't this a bit too much on the first day?
One more bottle.
So, please have a taste.
This is Gae Ddong's special mixed drink.
If you don't drink this in one go, I'll make you drink twofold.
Please drink this up. Drink, drink.
Okay. We should say a toast on day like this.
You shouldn't leave me out on a day like this.
Little Unni, you drink every day, this isn't new for you.
We still have a long way to go until the marriage. Let's not get too excited.
This unni, you're bursting our bubble. Let's celebrate on a day like this.
Right, let's think about tomorrow's work tomorrow and enjoy the moment.
Alright.
Luck in our travels, hope all goes well, and luck in marriage.
Tong, tong, tong!
You should continue to act as a noble lady, for the time being.
Why must I? It's so bothersome.
I met with the Vice Premier's daughter, she is quite formidable.
It's good to be careful until the marriage takes place.
It's bothersome, but for the sake the marriage, I must do it.
But things have worked out too well...
Did I do something wrong?
If you speak that way, the words become seeds (to things going wrong).
A big disaster, big disaster.
Lady said she will not marry.
I told you those words become seeds.
But how is that my fault?
Coral, glass, 30 rolls of silk,
Two robes embroidered with gold that Madam will wear at the wedding,
10 wheelbarrows of rice.
All of this?
Mother said
since a wedding is once in a lifetime, everything should be the best.
So she sent so much as gifts.
But forget the 10 sacks of rice.
I can't even get any silk. What must I do?
How can this be? It's not as if she wants to ruin this wedding.
You are correct. She is trying to ruin this wedding.
By making the bride retreat.
Will that really work though?
Her household cannot provide such fine wedding gifts.
Madam, if you just do nothing, they will tell you they cannot marry.
So are you suggesting that we sell the wedding gifts she received?
Madam wants a similar amount of wedding gifts
so if we sell them, the amount will be about the same.
It's such a transparent deception.
It's a lie that will be discovered soon, will that work?
It's a lie that is meant to be discovered.
I will bring this out.
Your Majesty.
Please go in safely.
Yes, go rest now.
Miss!
Maid?
What is this?
Except for this one, give me everything else.
Yes.
This one, this one, and this one, please.
-The prettiest babies. -Of course.
It's a half nyang.
What are you waiting for?
Here it is.
Thank you.
-Sell a lot. -Please come again.
That young lady... why does she run such errands?
What's wrong, Young Miss?
Isn't something strange about her?
Young Miss? Young Miss, what about the shopping?
Hurry up.
Did she buy something that Lady Choi will like, or that he likes?
Coral, glass, and 30 rolls of silk.
And two robes with gold embroidery that you will wear at the wedding.
10 wheelbarrows of rice are outside.
We even supplemented the list with two horses.
Prepared according to your request.
We know about Choi Cham Bong's family situation.
There is no way they could have prepared so much.
I'm sure that a high interest loan was taken.
Then you were aware that the gift list was excessive?
That is not what is important.
If Maiden Choi's family took a high interest loan, this won't do.
Would she have done that?
It was paid for by selling the wedding gifts you sent her, so please don't worry.
What... what... did you sell?
You gave it to her to use for her marriage. Doesn't it now belong to her?
What a strange incident. This marriage is invalid.
I will make sure to report this to the police as soon as the sun rises,
so be prepared.
If you do that, Scholar Lee is the one who will be sent to the penitentiary first.
Penitentiary?
Weren't the wedding gifts you sent a solicitation?
Solicitation? They are wedding gifts.
But with that, you've expected something in return.
What happens now?
Solicitation by those in administrative positions
is called going around soliciting others.
Those who work for the government are forbidden from private visits
to those who are not members of his paternal or maternal family.
But you received abundant solicitation from your in-laws,
old friends from your hometown.
Dismissal from his position, whipped 100 times, he could even be exiled.
In your opinion, what will be best?
Please stop.
Let's just do away with wedding gifts.
I will make sure to return all these gifts to everyone who gave them to us.
Daughter-in-law, you do not need to bring anything with you.
Is this enough now?
I usually only believe in what I can see.
But there is one things I believe in, which cannot be seen.
Devotion to someone without seeking anything in return.
Madam, as you devoted yourself to your son.
Lady has also shown the same devotion to him without seeking anything in return.
Devotion to someone, and having that person become your fated love,
how often does that occur?
This priceless wedding gift that Lady brings,
I hope that you, Madam, will recognize it.
Lord Lee Hyeong Gyu of Yangsat Village marriage procession coming through!
How could Kim stab me in the back?
How could they take all of your money and flee on the wedding day? What a shame.
Oh, no, that young bride is abandoned on her wedding day.
Hey, Three Months, do you know how much that costs?
I will give you that money, so leave her alone. It suits her well.
Really? Well, I bought them all because I couldn't decide which looked best.
How about it?
Then since the marriage is over, how about tong-tong-tong?
It ended well, so that's that.
I'm busy, too, so see you later.
I will use this well.
What? Why is everyone running away?
Are you ashamed of me?
Let's go together.
So, the arrowhead that was discovered in the forest
was stolen from Sangdan?
Where is he?
Please let me out!
Don't you know who I am?
If you find out who I am, you are all dead.
Please let me out!
Once you find out who I am, you guys really...
Look at that.
The higher-ups, they're telling you to wait a little while.
Do you think this is enough to make me go away?
Mr. Policeman, hey!
Please be careful. Someone might poison your food.
If it were me, I would get rid of guys like you first.
So if you want to live, tell me now who is backing you.
That way, you can at least save your life.
Flower Crew.
Please summon Matchmaker Ma for me.
Tell him that I will tell him everything I know about the criminal.
Mr. Policeman, please summon him.
He doesn't know anything. We could leave him alone...
But sometimes saying nothing can make the problem worse.
And what will happen when Vice Premier finds out his identity?
I will speak to the police, so go take care of this,
and make sure there are no messes left behind.
Yes.
But that guy, Hungry Bird, the second Young Master had captured him.
Hoon did?
Just like the last time,
this boy is not where he is supposed to be,
and appears where he isn't supposed to be.
So be extra careful.
Whatever it is, he is sure to find whatever he's looking for.
Yeah, what is the big deal about marriage?
I'm not envious at all.
Ah, my clothes are so uncomfortable.
Mr. Matchmaker.
A man's corpse came in to the police station.
Size and appearance, they said it was similar to Kim Soo.

♫ I imagine you; even if time flows ♫

Mr. Matchmaker, today, I'm a bit...
Stop looking for him.
Huh?
That blacksmith was adopted into a noble family without sons.
He's living richly and dressing well. So you should forget him.
That cannot be true.
Don't you agree?
If you don't want to find him, just say so. Why are you lying?
That guy...
Please forgive my prior discourtesy,
Your Majesty.
How... did you...?
That guy...
Look at that. You can't even say it.
In any case, I'm telling the truth. While he's living the high life,
are you going to keep looking for his corpse for the rest of your life?
I will go in first.
Do you just not want to believe me because he's made you suffer so much?
Mr. Matchmaker.
My Soo... he is not that kind of person.
Mr. Matchmaker, you received a letter from the police station.
Hungry Bird wants to see you.
Is anyone out there?
Summon that matchmaker for me.
Tell him I have something to tell him.
Hey, Policeman, please call that matchmaker for me.
Please come this way, yes.
Please call that matchmaker.
I have something to tell him.
Please call him.
Policeman, shouldn't you be guarding from the outside? Why are you coming in?
The higher ups are telling you to wait a little while.
Hey! Hey! Save me!
Save me...!
Hey, Half-Wit!
Where did that half-wit go?
Oh, this is driving me crazy.
He's drawing on the wall again?
How... Oh, Half-Wit, you just wait until I catch you.
He is dead today.

Crying Gae Ddong.
Gae Ddong.
It's pretty. Let's look to see if we can find more elsewhere.
Yes.
I found another.
Where?
Wow, it's pretty.
Mom is calling us. Come on, hurry.
Gae Ddong.
If you aren't confident you can find him, just say so.
How can he make such excuses...
Or does he just want to kick me out?
My Soo would never do that.
Of course not.
These are... my orabeoni's drawings.
How can this...?
Le'ts go.
Hyeon Jeong, hurry.
-Hurry and come. -Hurry and come.

Gae Ddong!

Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency Preview
I want to entrust the investigation of this case to you.
That young lady keeps bothering me. I better confirm it.
I was becoming fond of you, young lady.
Gae Ddong is our family now.
Think about who your family really is.
Gae Ddong, even if I'm late, I will make sure to come for you.
Who made you cry?
Matchmaker.
Matchmaker, stop being good to me. It makes me not want to leave.
