Shine or Go Crazy (빛나거나 미치거나)

[This is a fictional drama based on historical facts.]

[Events depicted might differ from actual events.]

He didn't forget about that day in Gaebong,

about his bride from Gaebong.

Chung Ok, Ryung Hwa!

Where are you my pretties?

That mute hit me so hard.

He almost broke my neck.

I'm in.

Chung Ok, Ryung Hwa.

He said he got married twice.

So those must be his wives' names?

Then why does he have my jade pendant?

It's cold.

This is where the ledger must be.

I found it!

What are these?

Is there everything but the ledger in this storage?

Is it in here?

What are these?

It's too cold in here.

There were so many rooms available.

He's so inconsiderate.

Is there anything I can use as a blanket?

What's in here?

Why won't this open?

It's silk!

I can use these as a blanket!

My talisman!

My talisman!

That jerk.

Stop it.

I'll give you what you want, so stop it.

Oh no.

I'll give you everything in here, so stop it!

I found it!

I was scared to death.

I thought I lost it!

What are you doing standing there?

What?

What…

What does that mean to you

that you were looking so hard for it?

You mean this?

What does this mean to me?

Right.

It's a talisman that's been protecting me

for the past 5 years.

It's a treasure that I wouldn't trade,

even for everything in here.

A treasure.

I made a mess.

What should I do?

I don't have any money,

so can I work here to pay you back?

Gaebong, I'll do whatever you ask me.

Will that work?

You're so heartless.

You must pay for it.

You must pay for everything you broke!

For five days?

You're going to teach him about the trading company,

And you'll make him take the promotion exam?

Why would you do that?

What is he going to learn in 5 days?

That's very difficult!

And everyone will be preparing for the exam,

so it'll be hectic.

If I teach him well, he could take the first level exam.

Then he could work for other trading companies.

It'll help support his family, won't it?

That's true.

Why would you teach him and send him elsewhere?

- You should just keep him here. - That's true, too.

Seriously?

Promise me

that you'll never let him work here.

I promise.

- It's only for 5 days! - Only for 5 days.

It's nice that you're teaching him.

But I need to know why you're doing this.

- Why I'm doing this? - Yes, why?

Do you still think he's your groom?

Do you want to be his third wife?

That's not it.

He still has the jade pendant that I gave him.

I'm happy with that.

Then why are you doing this?

The person who saved me

is still in the same state as he was 5 years ago.

I want him to put down his sword.

Then won't his fate change a little?

So you want to

pay him back for what he did for you?

Then that's fine.

You're going to teach him well for 5 days,

then you'll let him go with plenty of silver coins.

You're ending your relationship with him like that.

Okay?

Yeah.

I'm going to teach him well and let him go.

One day?

No, two days?

It's a whopping 5 days.

I'm going to learn about trades for 5 days.

The ledger must be in the head's office.

I'll get it no matter what.

I did all sorts of things to get in here.

I'm talking about me!

- What is it? - It's nothing.

You look like you're having fun.

Yeah, right, I have so much to do.

Oh, what happened to Hong Gyu Ui and Baek Choong Hyung?

Hong Gyu Ui is suspicious.

I'm going to follow his movements.

The leech!

The leech!

The leech, I mean Gil Bok!

Your Highness?

I can obviously see you.

I know the capital like the palm of my hand

because I've been looking for you everywhere.

Whether you've run off to here or there,

it's all in the palm of my hand.

You didn't go home last night again, did you?

I was tired, so I slept in one of these rooms

after I had a few drinks.

Why?

Who did you drink with?

Did you drink with the guy who just ran away?

Who is he?

What do you mean?

He's just a friend.

He's the guy you met in Byuklando one morning, right?

That's him, isn't he?

I'm your master.

Do I have to report everything to you?

You're crazy!

Take it.

Go to the Hwang family,

and be the guard to my niece, Princess Yeon Won.

Report everything that is happening there to me secretly.

Aren't these flowers pretty?

But there's poison in these roots.

In the Hwang family, I'm like these roots.

Even if it's a pretty flower,

the roots protect its life.

And your duty is to protect the roots.

You've wielded the sword for a long time.

You're my shadow from now on.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Are you okay?

Yes.

Even if you go back to working for my uncle,

and we're separated,

you'll always be my shadow.

That day, whose portrait was my uncle observing?

It was the King's portrait.

My uncle was observing the King's portrait?

At that hour?

He needed to confirm something.

He also confirmed my brother's whereabouts

on the day of the Buddhist ceremony.

On that day, Kim Jong Sik was murdered.

Is he looking for Kim Jong Sik's murderer?

Yes.

The leader of the men who killed Kim Jong Sik,

is one of the late King's sons.

A prince became the leader of the thieves?

Who do you think it is?

How is your husband doing these days?

He's not here.

Where is Gil Bok?

You're going to learn at the trading company for 5 days?

I said it was a secret!

Why?

You're a prince.

Why would you want to be trained there?

Hey.

Like you said, I don't know when I'll be divorced.

But learning about trades could benefit me later.

You're asking me to believe that?

- Then I'll go with you. - That's ridiculous!

Hey, they don't know I'm one of the royal family.

But if I take you with me,

you'll just let everything slip and make a mess.

You can't even go near Chunghae Trading Company.

- Understand? - Then,

what if the Princess asks you where you went?

Should I tell her that you're going to earn money

just in case of a divorce?

Yeah, tell her that.

What?

Look into my eyes.

Look at what?

- Tell me, Your Highness. - Tell you what?

You're doing something I don't know about, aren't you?

You're so clever.

Come closer.
