Poong, The Joseon Psychiatrist (Joseon Psychiatrist Yoo Se-Poong / Joseon Jungshingwa Uisa Yoosepoong / 조선 정신과 의사 유세풍)

With my hands, I caused the former king to die.

That is why...

I was banished from the Palace...

and unable to use needles.

And also,

someone is still threatening me over that incident.

I do not wish to leave.

However...

I must discover the truth.

Will you still...

wait for me?

No.

Take the path you see fit.

And uncover the truth.

I will not just sit and do nothing.

I will find my own way.

Together, just like now.

Did the Second State Councillor send you?

Does your side sting?

You lacked the skill and could have died.

Thank me for saving you.

Darn!

Run, but you cannot hide from me.

You had it coming, you punk.

Goodness.

This came into my possession?

Who used dansacho and how, when there were guards...

and tasters and testers?

Why did the royal investigator come to Sorak Village?

To kill me?

To find evidence?

Physician Yoo, may I come in for a moment?

Sin Woo must be involved in it too.

At the moment, it is only speculation.

Do you think the Second State Councillor sent this?

This...

belongs to Physician Yoo?

Does this needle box have something to do with the incident too?

Did something happen?

The other night, when Sin Woo heard that this belonged to you,

he seemed very flustered.

Sin Woo might already know...

what you are after.

I should ask him directly.

What do you mean Sin Woo left?

He was transferred to the State Tribunal last night.

And he was nowhere to be seen this morning.

He must have had to leave in a rush to start his new job.

Goodness. He should have at least told us before he left, right?

He would not leave without even saying goodbye.

I wonder what happened.

But those who are after you are like wild beasts.

They will only stop when they rip the throat of their prey.

They are cruel beings.

He might be in danger.

Where are you going?

You must walk along this trail to get there.

Look.

It is blood.

Royal Inspector Cho!

Royal Inspector Cho, wake up.

I must take you to the clinic. Hold my hand.

No.

No one can know...

that I am still alive.

Royal Inspector Cho.

Royal Inspector Cho!

Who did this?

The Second State Councillor’s son was attacked before he could slay me.

Who attacked him? And why?

Please wake up.

I cannot let you die like this.

It has been taken care of, my lord.

That weak fool.

Your Majesty, you have been avoiding governmental affairs for days,

and you would not even let us see you.

Please try to understand our situation, Your Majesty.

The rash on my leg has worsened.

It is hard for me to even stay seated for a moment.

Oh, no. - My goodness.

Hence,

I wish to visit the hot spring in Onyang.

However, you are not well enough...

for such a long trip.

It could worsen the rash.

Like the former kings,

I wish to be treated in Onyang.

I hope you all understand.

Yes, Your Majesty.

You must regain your health for our country to be strong.

We will thoroughly prepare everything.

My rash is worsening by the day,

so make sure I can leave immediately.

Yes. Well understood, Your Majesty.

It has only been a little while since he ascended the throne.

He already wants to go stay in Onyang?

He is ill.

He suddenly wants to go to the palace in Onyang?

Lord Cho!

Lord Cho.

I found the court maid.

However,

His Majesty is...

What?

Now, I see what is going on.

Bring Im Soon Man to me.

Yes, my lord.

What happened?

Who tried to kill you?

Take Eun Woo and leave at once.

If you stay here with me, you will be put in danger too.

Royal Inspector Cho.

You saved my life yet again.

Is there anything you know about that needle box?

If it is something related to my father, please tell me.

Are you telling me to repay my debt?

Your father was found...

with a discoloured stiletto needle in his hand.

And I was investigating the case.

However,

I no longer have that stiletto needle.

The man...

who stabbed me probably took the needle.

Who was it?

All right. One for you, Jang Gun.

I get two.

Hey! - Come on.

This is delicious. - By the way,

Physician Yoo was acting so strange today.

My young master is always weird.

I saw him sneaking out...

with tons of food. - What?

Lady Seo was acting weird too.

She left the house with some food.

She took my crunchy rice too.

I see. If she even took Jang Gun's crunchy rice...

I know what is going on.

What? - What is going on?

Those two...

are in love!

What?

They are?

They are in love! - They are in love!

Finally, this happened.

What? What do you think happened?

They secretly...

Yes.

They moved in together in secret!

What? - What?

They will get in trouble, will they not?

They cannot get married.

Do not worry. That is simply impossible.

My young master has been single all his life,

so he cannot even think of doing such a thing.

You never know what can happen between a man and a woman.

Let us go check out Poong's new house!

Okay! - No.

No, wait. - No.

Get back here! - Hey.

Jang Gun, hold on.

No. - Come on!

They are in love! - Quiet.

Well...

Did you have dinner?

Yes, I ate.

Oh, where?

Would you like some yakgwa?

You two...

can share one.

They are beginning to look alike.

Where did Royal Inspector Cho go when he is still unwell?

His wounds will reopen if he moves.

I am sure he did not make it far.

Let us find him.

The royal inspector...

asked about the needle...

that had changed in colour.

Yes, that is right.

This is the needle he probably showed you.

What am I looking at?

Have you figured it out?

I kept mum not wanting to be dragged away by authorities.

However, this is no ordinary needle.

It is a stiletto needle used to cut boils.

I see.

It is called a stiletto needle?

That is right.

It seems to have come from someone of authority too.

That much is true.

Anyway, bring me more answers as soon as possible.

I need not remind you that you must keep quiet.

Absolutely. You need not worry.

Now, let us move on.

Do you have what I requested?

Of course. Here you go.

Right. Let me see.

Goodness.

Splendid.

That dunce. If he blindly seeks the truth in Hanyang...

The Minister of Personnel died while looking into this herb.
