Post by bunniefuu »

(This drama is a work of fiction

created based on historical facts.)

(Most of the details and depictions

of the characters are fictional.)

(Spring of 1659,

the 10th year of Hyojong's reign)

(Head Inspector Shin Yi Rib)

You became a head inspector this year?

(Jipyeong: the 5th rank public post

of the Office of Inspector General)

Yes.

I heard you need me to do something.

This was found

after the former Crown Prince passed.

The former Crown Prince?

Crown Prince So Hyun.

This is a draft.

Those are the words

(Sacho: draft of the historical record

written by a historical recorder)

that should have been erased from history.

It is the record that should not exist.

It is full of words of disloyalty

for the late Crown Prince.

By the way,

there is one thing that bothers me.

There is a man

who is mentioned frequently in this draft.

His whereabouts bother me.

Find out the authenticity of this draft.

Find that man.

But why would we dig up the record

that should have been erased?

That is why

you must do it in confidence.

Among a bunch of military officers,

there was a man who did not behave right.

He failed to fulfill his duty to report.

He deluded the Crown Prince

and got the wrong things recorded.

One of the men got cursed,

and gradually went mad.

And His Majesty ordered that

the man shall never see the light again.

Lee Jang Hyun.

(Haeminseo)

(The government office that treated

poor Joseon people for free.)

I am unwell.

Goodness.

You are unbelievable.

Goodness.

It hurts.

Oh, dear.

Goodness.

It hurts.

Help me.

Goodness.

I heard from the lady.

You want to look around the facility.

I heard you treat mental cases here too.

We do.

But we do not take in just anybody.

The noble families bring

their family members here secretly

when they can neither

care for the person at home

nor abandon the person.

By any chance,

is there a man who

insists on being the faithful servant

of the late Crown Prince?

Do you know the man?

I came to ask him a question.

Ask him a question?

Having a conversation with him

is out of the question.

How so?

You will know once you meet him.

What is strange is that someone high-up

made a special request

to provide him with good care.

He has been chanting

the same words for several years.

Why care for him?

What are those words?

He said the man will come and get him

when the time comes.

My dear husband?

Why did you come so late?

My dear husband.

Mother.

I passed the state examination.

I passed first too.

My lord! Please save my child!

Please!

Please!

It is him.

I am Head Inspector Shin Yi Rib.

I came to ask you a question.

Can we talk?

Is the man you are waiting for

Lee Jang Hyun?

Recently, I read a strange story.

In that story,

there was a man named Lee Jang Hyun.

While his accomplishments

were nothing but lies,

do you

happen to know him?

So you do understand me.

You are not mad.

Am I right?

Can you tell me

about Lee Jang Hyun?

Do you hear it?

It is the sound

of the flowers.

(Spring of 1636,

the 14th year of Injo's reign)

It is huge.

Come quick.

One moment.

You are here.

Let us continue after lunch.

Let us eat first.

- We should continue later.

- Come here already.

Hurry up.

Little yellow bird, do tell me.

Who is the fairest in this world?

If you think it is Lady Gil Chae

of Neunggun-ri,

chirp for me.

If it is another lady,

do a handstand for me.

Little yellow bird, do tell me.

Who is the fairest in this world?

Tell me at once

or I will break your legs!

My lady!

What?

I will be scolded if you are late.

You need to please Madam Sam Bong

to get a good future partner.

All the matchmakers go to her first

when they visit our town.

But she does not like me at all.

That is why you should put in more effort.

You need to marry a good husband

so that I can also live

with my head held high.

Please think of the people around you

instead of yourself only.

Is that not a lady's ethics?

Do you have to berate me

with your servant's ethics?

Your voice will haunt me in my dreams!

Why, you

- Eun Ae.

- Yes?

Are you going to the flower festival too?

I will be wearing a pink coat for

I did not ask you.

You know, the other day,

Young Master Jun Jeol asked to

share my fan during the flower festival.

But he has not said anything about it yet.

If a man confuses you,

it means he does not like you.

If you really want to know

what he thinks of you,

go and talk to him first.

You know, smile and tap his shoulder.

My goodness.

Are you asking me

to do something so cunning?

My Young Master Jun Jeol would never fall

for such behavior.

You can do it all you want.

Anyway, Eun Ae

Me first. Hey, Eun Ae.

- Do you want to embroider together?

- Sure.

Eun Ae agreed to be my partner today.

- Right, Eun Ae?

- But I asked first!

She just partnered with me.

- No, I asked her first.

- This is pretty, right?

You said this time

I am not going to that silly festival.

Why would anyone pluck weeds

to make pancakes?

And writing poems on fans and whatnot?

How childish.

I heard city folk do not do that.

How boring!

Poor me!

I should look for another lady to serve.

I am so worried about my future

that I cannot sleep these days!

She will be the death of me.

Do I have to look for a new master?

Rest assured about your future.

Soon, I will be marrying a handsome man.

I will meet the man of my dreams.

Next time, no matter how much

you want to brag,

think, "They must have one thing

about themselves that is better than me,"

and hold it in.

When I meet the man of my dreams one day,

I am going to give him a pillow

that I embroidered myself.

Then we will be able to meet

in each other's dreams.

When will you learn

how to embroider

when you are always kicked out?

How many times has it been already?

Is it that hard to sit calmly?

Gosh.

Who are you?

I have been waiting for you,

right here,

for a very long time.

My lady.

My lady.

My lady, the hot water is ready.

Did I not tell you I am afraid I will

hear your voice in my dreams?

Why did you wake me up?

Did you dream the same dream again?

Then with the man

in your dream, did you

Of course.

Once again, with the man in my dream

I read a book.

I read chapter one of "Sohak,"

and he read chapter two.

He was about to show me the meaning

of moral training and home management.

But why did you have to wake me up?

Gosh.

You did not even get to see his face yet.

I do not have to see his face.

I am sure he is Young Master Yeon Jun.

Dream on.

People say Young Master Yeon Jun

likes Eun Ae.

Did you think all the men

in this world would like you?

Young Master Yeon Jun and Eun Ae

are not interested in each other.

As if.

Everyone in Neunggun-ri knows

that Young Master Yeon Jun likes Eun Ae.

Only you do not know.

I told you not to

talk about Eun Ae in front of me.

Eun Ae.

Eun Ae.

Did someone call me?

No one called you.

You must be hearing things

because you are excited

to see Young Master Yeon Jun.

You are so silly.

Goodness, How pretty.

Will this look better on you?

Or will this look better?

Goodness.

It is okay.

But still,

you have not seen him in a while.

You should look pretty.

This is why the cunning Gil Chae

- keeps

- Madam Bang Doo.

There you go again.

I wonder if he passed

the entrance to the village yet.

Young Master Yeon Jun likes Eun Ae

- Not Gil Chae

- Why you

You should leave too.

I am going back to sleep.

I heard Young Master Yeon Jun,

who studied at Sungkyunkwan,

might be at the flower festival today.

Well, if you really do not want to go,

then it cannot be helped.

At times, it is not a bad idea

to commune with flowers.

Well, I should wash my face first.

Oh, my. Eun Ae.

Hi, Gil Chae.

Did I not tell you?

I told you she would come no matter what.

I am actually on my way

to the flower festival.

- Do you want to go together?

- Goodness.

Was today the day of the festival?

I would not have gone

if you did not tell me.

Then shall we go?

- Let us go.

- Okay.

I knew she would come.

Your lady knows about

Young Master Yeon Jun coming today, right?

My lady can go anywhere

Lady Eun Ae goes.

I remember a man tried to k*ll himself

after Lady Gil Chae rejected him.

How is that my lady's fault?

Is it a crime to be pretty?

It is not because she is pretty.

It is because of her behavior.

Another time, she laughed

with her mouth wide open

in front of all the men.

Gosh, how indecent.

Then does something else

other than your mouth open when you laugh?

Oh, my goodness.

You will be a bad influence on your baby.

My gosh.

Hey, what did you just say?

There is one here too.

- Look at this one.

- How pretty.

- Let us go to our homeland

- Let us go to our homeland

Look.

Do you know what happens when you behave

carelessly at the flower festival?

In the Year of Imjin

When the Japanese raiders raided

in the Year of Imjin,

a Japanese raider tried to r*pe Deok Bok.

She fought hard and bit his finger.

The Japanese raider got mad

and cut her two hands.

She still did not go with him,

so the Japanese raider beat her to death.

Even until the moment of death,

she constantly yelled at the enemy.

When foreign intruders raided

in the Year of Jeongmyo

When foreign intruders raided

ten years ago in the Year of Jeongmyo,

Lee fled to the mountain,

carrying her mother-in-law.

A foreign intruder followed her

and tried to look at her face.

Lee fought back hard,

and the intruder pierced her

two eyes with a knife.

- Lee

- It is not like

there is going to be a w*r.

Why does she keep repeating

the words she said?

It sounds as if

they are going to raid any minute.

Your Highness, this is Min Ji Sik

from the Propaganda Office.

His Majesty is unwell,

so I am tending to him all day long.

Why are you making such a fuss?

The envoy we sent to Great Jin came back?

Yes. The envoy came back.

The king of Great Jin said

The king of Great Jin Hong Taiji

appointed himself as the emperor

and held an ancestral rite?

But Your Majesty,

I did not bend down to them until the end.

Then why did you receive

the document they gave

instead of tearing it in front of them?

Your Majesty,

you must behead the envoys

and throw them to the foreign invaders.

You are going overboard.

It has been years

since Great Ming has been

fighting Great Jin.

Once the foreign invaders raid a town,

no house remains untouched.

No man remains normal.

And no man gets to protect his wife.

That is how terribly they affect us.

You still think I am going overboard?

How can we serve the leader

of such people as the emperor?

They say

10,000 mounted troops of Jurchen

are impossible to fight against.

Daling he of Ming Dynasty fell.

The foreign invaders are

posing a serious threat.

More than that,

(Daling he: Ming Dynasty's area

formed around Daling River)

They must know that Joseon

is loyal to Ming Dynasty

and that we would never serve

the king of Great Jin as an emperor.

How dare they force our envoy

to go down on his knees?

What do you think is the reason behind it?

Lee was moving

her husband's body to his hometown.

And the owner of the inn she stayed in

grabbed her by her wrist.

She got her wrist grabbed

while pushing and pulling him.

But Lee cried and said,

"Unfortunately, I lost my husband.

How can I let"

"How can I let another man

hold my wrists?"

What?

I am rash and cunning?

People who envy me

think men like me because I am pretty.

But Jong Jong.

It is not because of

my outstanding appearance.

I am a woman

who works for what she wants.

Of course.

Of course.

See how cunning I can be.

Look. Lady Gil Chae is here.

You look even stronger now.

No way.

The mountain paths were steep.

I nearly fell.

Would you lead the way

when I head back?

Of course, I would.

Young master, you are bad.

What?

What did I do wrong?

I have been looking for you all-day

to ask you to write a poem on my fan.

And you are here only now.

Me?

Who else then?

Are you not the greatest calligrapher

of Neunggun-ri?

That is

I will

make sure to write on your fan.

You are going to write it

in your free time. Am I right?

That is your mistake.

Should I write it now

I will write it now.

You are in my way.

I am sorry.

I apologize. No.

No. I am sorry.

It is as if I am haunted by the ghost

of the legendary wife who turned to stone.

A wife who turned to stone?

You are haunted by her.

A wife who turned to stone? Gosh.

You are the only one

who makes me laugh, young master.

The ghost of a wife who turned to stone.

Let us go.

Have you heard of that ghost?

I am a very funny man.

I am the strongest man in Neunggun-ri.

I am the master calligrapher.

Goodness.

All right.

Young master.

It is hot.

It is hot!

Ask him how he can promise

to write a poem to another woman.

He did it in front of me too.

He fell while picking up the brush case.

That is how impatient he was.

Did he forget decorum?

My two eyes are wide open.

How can you promise to write

for another woman?

Young master!

You are unbelievable.

Does he

What?

I cannot hear a word you say.

Do you like Gil Chae?

No way.

Lady Gil Chae has nothing to do with me.

How can I dare

to have a woman like her?

So, how is everyone doing?

What do you think?

Even the Japanese invasion

was not as chaotic as this.

By the way,

where is Young Master Yeon Jun?

Welcome.

This way, please.

Young Master Yeon Jun.

Why is he with Father?

Did he

come to ask for permission to woo me?

Oh, dear.

He should have given me a hint first.

Now that everyone is here,

I have something to announce.

You must be aware

that Great Ming is at w*r with Great Jin.

However, in the letter the king

of Great Jin wrote to His Majesty,

he called himself

"the Emperor of Great Qing"

and referred to Joseon as "your country."

- "Your country?"

- Those shameless intruders!

- What is going on?

- How preposterous!

How dare he call himself the emperor?

However, the royal court does not plan

to fight the Great Jin.

On the contrary, it wants

to send envoys to appease their king.

Envoys?

- That is ridiculous!

- How can that be?

- Not another boring talk.

- Therefore,

with Master's permission,

I propose that we should write

an appeal to His Majesty.

- All right. Count me in!

- Me too!

Of course. We should help the Great Ming

and teach those intruders a lesson!

- That is right!

- Of course!

How can you be so sure

that the Great Ming will win?

Perhaps the intruders

will beat the Great Ming.

Have you not thought of that possibility?

Do you think that makes sense?

Even a child can hurl stones

better than a foreign intruder!

The Great Ming has 1,000 soldiers.

How can the intruders win?

Really?

A thousand?

- Oh, my.

- Goodness.

An army of 1,000 Ming soldiers

will clearly defeat the foreign intruders?

But did you know?

The intruders do not think so.

The great Ming empire over there

was once called Yuan,

founded by the Mongols.

Before it was called Yuan,

it was the Jin Empire founded

by the intruders.

To the intruders, an army of 1,000

would be manageable.

How dare you?

- You impudent fool!

- Shut your mouth!

Do not look down on 1,000 soldiers.

They stay constant

no matter the situation.

One's unfaltering and noble loyalty

multiplied by 1,000.

Besides,

even if the intruders are roused up,

the Great Ming is an empire

while the Qing is a small kingdom

that just got on its feet.

Do you not know

that the Jin emperor Nurhaci, was slain

by Yuan Chong Huan of Ming?

- Not just that.

- Of course.

And do you know how General Yuan died?

He died with a thousand cuts

to his body

through the punishment of lingchi.

(Lingchi: a punishment

where the criminal is tied up and sliced)

By the Ming emperor.

When his loyalty to the Ming was doubted,

he died a slow and painful death.

Who wants to sacrifice their life

to fight for a king like that?

Tell me.

I see.

Joseon.

These loyal Joseon men would be willing

to fight for him.

However,

these are brave scholars we have here.

How will they fight when w*r breaks out?

Will they build a wall with their brushes?

Or will they fight with solid ink?

- How dare you?

- Why, that fool

That impudent fool!

My goodness.

Why, that

Look at him.

How ridiculous.

That jerk.

Ignore him.

- Stop right there.

- My goodness.

Why, that fool.

Who is he? How dare he argue

against Young Master Yeon Jun?

Well, I heard the rumors.

- He is one uncouth fellow.

- What?

About a month ago,

he came to our village

to buy soft persimmons.

This place has wonderful feng shui.

(A month ago)

Do you even know how to spell "feng shui?"

You were kicked out from every school.

Just tell me about the place you found.

Yes, sir.

Well, it can be said

that the village Neunggun-ri

has delicious rice punch

and soft persimmons.

They offer top-notch bamboo sh**t wine.

The village elders are kind and gentle

so the people follow their orders.

Even the county does not interfere

in their matters.

I see.

They have lax norms about courtship

so the men and women are very chummy.

I see.

I knew you would be pleased.

Perhaps due to that,

there is a sly creature in their midst.

Hold on.

- A sly creature?

- Yes.

It is a fox with nine tails

No, it is a fox with 99 tails.

I came here by following the scent

of the famous bamboo.

Please take me in as your disciple.

He asked to be a disciple at our school.

So the teachers said

that only those who pass an exam

can study at our school. And then

He actually agreed to take the exam.

Does that mean that he actually

took the exam with young school children?

Why bother taking an exam?

You will not last long anyway.

Oh, you there.

Do you know what is for today's exam?

Look. Let us be quiet.

My goodness.

Let me see.

What could the topic be

for today?

(Loyalty)

Explain what loyalty is.

A woman's loyalty to her chastity,

a liege's loyalty to the king,

and the loyalty that men

and the people should have for the nation.

What are you doing, young master?

Jang Hyun!

Come on.

Well.

This topic is too boring.

I am not doing it.

He only knows how to act like a nobleman.

He could not even write a proper passage.

He is not from a true noble family.

Rumors say that he was a lowly peasant

who paid for fake documents

to act as a nobleman.

My goodness.

And do you know what he said?

"I have money"

"so let me join the school!"

Oh, my.

He should be kicked out immediately.

But somehow,

he managed to coax the elders

There was a guy

who was excellent with his speech.

So I asked him to show it to me.

When I stepped on him,

he just screamed, "Ouch!"

When I gave him a big slap on his cheek,

he screamed, "Please spare me!"

Why did you kick out someone

who wanted to learn?

Since when was Neunggun-ri

such a heartless place?

I know what he did

but how could you turn away

an earnest student?

- How could you do that?

- That is unbelievable.

My goodness.

How cruel.

Goodness.

In fact, he even managed

to convince Grandpa Song Chu.

As you all know,

that old man has a nasty temper.

Sir!

Are you blind?

Do you not see

that I worked up a sweat to build it?

Please do not be mad. I apologize.

Goodness.

I give up.

Sir

However, that Lee Jang Hyun fellow

treats Grandpa Song Chu's house

like his own

and works the old man like his servant.

Go and play, go and play

Play while you are young

You will not be able to once you are old

How wonderful, how wonderful

But

how did a man without a title

earn so much money?

I heard he sold soft persimmons

and cigarettes

to foreign intruders.

He associates with foreign intruders?

That is what I am saying.

I did not want to say this,

but I saw him once

as I was buying medicine for my mother.

But he was

This was what he was doing.

I cannot believe he got so close

to foreign intruders.

How crude he is.

That is not all. According to the rumors,

he goes around all eight provinces

to do business.

But he has women in each province

that he is intimate with.

- My goodness.

- Oh, my.

But what is more absurd

is that he courts good graces

of the women with his gifts, and

Come on.

Take this.

Try opening it.

Ribbons with an embroidered design

on just the end is what is in trend.

Oh, my.

How pretty.

You should pass the state examination now.

That way,

my parents will allow our marriage.

"Marriage?"

Do not be too upset.

I want to hold our wedding

before you pass the examination,

but my parents would not allow

Gosh.

My lady,

do you love me?

- Sorry?

- I guess you do not.

Then do I love you?

I do not think

my feelings for you are that big yet.

But we already met three times,

you gave me a gift,

and I even put my head

on your shoulder today.

So that is the reason why

we should get married?

I thought you would be different

from other women.

Listen carefully, my lady.

The feeling of love is a fleeting emotion.

Humans are shallow

so they are not able to keep

such a divine emotion inside of them

for a long time.

Therefore,

it is better not to tie yourself

to someone through marriage.

So from a very long time ago,

I decided to be a misogamist.

What is a misogamist?

"Misos" means hatred.

"Gamos" means marriage.

So a person who does not want to marry.

Then why have you been seeing me?

Do a man and a woman have to get married

in order to see each other?

Brother!

This man

trifled with my feelings!

What do you mean? That is a bit

- Hey!

- What?

Who are those people?

I told you not to tell people

you are a misogamist.

Stop right there!

Get him!

- Hey, you punk!

- Stop right there!

He tells people that he is a misogamist.

- Misogamist?

- What is that?

- Misogamist?

- There is such a word?

Why would he not get married?

- I know, right?

- Why would he not get married?

He must be lacking in some way.

I am sure he is probably bad in bed or

- My lady.

- What?

It is not time for us

to talk about foreign intruders.

We have to stop Lee Jang Hyun

from polluting our fortress.

But he said he would give us rice.

You want to accept

a man like him for rice?

He is someone who dared to say

that foreign intruders

could defeat the Great Ming.

Is someone talking about me?

Right. Here.

Someone must be speaking ill of you again.

People speak ill of you wherever you go.

You are going to live until your senility.

Did you really tell them that you would

give them a bribe if they let you in?

Yes. More, please.

Gosh.

You are so embarrassing.

This one. Good.

I do not think

he will be that bad in bed.

He has a fine figure.

Hey, is that all?

He was so fierce

when he pushed the guys to the edge.

He was like a fierce

Like an animal preying on a herd of deer?

No. A beast.

Come on.

- A beast?

- Since his gaze was so intense.

Gosh, how boring.

Are you going to talk about

that misogamist all day?

I should

just go and ride a swing.

Come on, Jong Jong.

- How perverse.

- What?

You have heard of that rumor too, right?

From the southern city

called Namwon or whatever,

a man named Yi Mong Ryong,

who passed the state examination,

fell in love with Chun Hyang, the daughter

of a kisaeng, and made her his wife.

I mean, I did hear that rumor.

But it makes no sense.

How could the daughter of a kisaeng

Why does that not make sense?

Anyway, do you know why Yi Mong Ryong

fell in love with Chun Hyang?

Well,

I think it was

after seeing Chung Hyang on a swing.

So why do you think he fell in love

with her after seeing her on a swing?

Oh, my. What are you doing?

If I ride this swing,

my skirt will lift up,

and they will be able to see

my underskirt, slightly.

And if they are lucky,

they can also see my bare skin.

It will make all of their hearts flutter.

The socks are the most important.

Jong Jong,

let us do this.

Open wide.

Come on.

What a sight.

Gu Jam, look.

Who is she?

The fox of Neunggun-ri with 99 tails.

Is that so?

I am so full. I should take a walk.

Gosh, I am full.

Let us go and tell our master

that Lee Jang Hyun

cannot be allowed in the fortress.

We have to

We have to tell him

Wait.

I think there is

- Gosh.

- Gosh.

There was an accident!

- What is going on?

- Something must have

Where is everyone going?

Someone got hurt, so they went to help.

Lady Gil Chae fell from the swing.

Then we should hurry there.

A plenty of people are there to help her.

- There.

- Lady Gil Chae!

- Lady Gil Chae!

- Lady Gil Chae!

- Are you okay?

- Are you okay?

Goodness.

Gosh.

The foothold nearly fell.

Bad swing!

Let us fix it right away.

- Let us do it.

- Right.

Lift it up.

Is everyone here?

We had to run here.

You could have gotten hurt.

That is not it.

Is it fixed?

It needs to be fixed a little more.

Are you not hurt

Move. I should get back on it.

- Goodness.

- My Lady.

- Goodness.

- Be careful.

As you already know, I have seen

many women from all over the nation.

A woman who has a beautiful face.

A woman who has beautiful hands.

A woman who has a thin waist.

A woman who has thin wrists.

A woman who has a powerful voice.

A woman who has a warm heart.

A woman men love.

And a woman who loves men.

That is not all.

From Seo of Pyongyang Seo family,

who is a self-claimed Yang Guifei

to women from Gyeongsang Province

of Joseon, I have dated them all.

They look fancy on the outside,

but they are empty inside.

Of course, you did.

Gosh.

What did you eat?

So

even the woman who is supposed

to have 99 tails

would not be that special.

Since you went to trouble to tell me,

I would go see it for myself.

But

I have no expectations.

As you already know,

I am a very picky person.

The woman I am looking for is

One day,

you asked me.

You asked me

what I was thinking that day

when I was riding the swing.

I said I do not remember it.

But the truth is

I clearly remember everything.

That day,

I felt like the man of my dream

would approach me.

So everything before me

turned green

and pink.

One day, I asked him.

"Do you remember the day

you saw me for the first time?"

He answered, "I remember it clearly."

"I heard something very special that day."

I asked him what he heard.

Do you hear it?

It is the sound

of the flowers.

What?

Flowers do not make any sound.

Have you heard of the sound

of a flower blooming in the spring?

Today,

I got to hear that special sound.

(My Dearest)

Are you waiting for me?

You smiled at me in the daytime.

The men you have dated before

must have gotten flustered

by your attention.

But I am not them.

I am curious. I want to know

who you want to date.

You know.

I do not believe in marriage.

Then what about the sweet words

and glances?

I am leaving tomorrow.

I will be away for several months.

I will make a suggestion

he would not be able to turn down.

I will kiss him.
