Episode 2

Let's go on a walk for a bit.

Where to?

You have to get on the ship that goes to Ming. I have prepared it for situations like this.

No, I don't want to run away.

It concerns your life.

Just once. Please don't have me go there just this one time.

I ran away to here as well.

You mustn't let that child live.

Do it for the greater good. I will promise you an official spot (rank five) in the court.

That child might have really come from the future.

Someone from the future...

Well...

There is no one more dangerous than him.

Pardon?

He ran frivolously to save him.

His Majesty has brought the trouble himself.

Eunuch, open your eyes. Just...

Look!

Don't drink it. Trapped water is full of rotten moss.

Well, it is not the fault of the moss.

It is the fault of the humans that trap nature for their convenience.

Let's go.

Oh gosh.

I'm right. You are a girl.

What are you saying?

Then, a deungmok? (when men pour water on their backs with their tops off) - I hate taking showers.

It is not going to change anything, even if you are a girl.

I knew it ever since my brother kept calling you Noona.

I didn't try to deceive you on purpose.

I got the job because I was a guy, and I was a bit scared as well. That's why.

I will keep it from the king if you double the fee.

You seem like a nice person.

I thought you were a jerk at first.

Well, I am doing the math, whether to take the rank five position.

Or to take at minimum a rank four by saving the king's woman.

Well, right now, you're mine.

How could you have given such a order?

If that child is a spy, then everything you wanted to achieve

disappears.

I'm going to go look for that child.

Your Majesty.

Give up on your personal feelings.

He said to run towards the time. Go first.

By myself? - Then do you want to die together here?

Here.

Good luck.

Oppa gangnam style!

Gangnam style!

Gangnam style!

Oppa Gangnam style!

He told you to run towards the time.

Under the sky of Joseon, the sun is the time.

Time is the sun.

Westward.

You knew about this, didn't you?

What am I going to do?

Did you walk by yourself all the way here?

It must be hard to endure everything by yourself.

Let go of me!

I can go alone! I am going to find them.

If it is the sun of a country, then that represents me.

I colored it like a real bird, right?

Then, I'll make it sound like a bird.

Wow, I want to blow it too!

Give it to me.

You were also bearing it alone, putting up a front.

That day was the exam day that my life depended on.

One of the most important days of my life.

I thought about why I ended up here out of all places,

but I think it was just my choice.

Whether it was Joseon or anywhere else, I just intended to disappear to somewhere far.

"Mi" means not yet, and "rae" means to come. (The word for "future" is pronounced "mi-rae")

So, you came from the days that haven't come yet?

You're telling me to believe that?

Did you live your whole life getting fooled?

It's time you believed me!

Then...

Look at this.

Wow... How can the sky fit into this thing?

It's pretty, right?

If you look at this, you wouldn't have to look up at the sky.

What?

What happened?

Ah, the battery died.

Yeah, it is better to have something permanent.

Wow... This really is Joseon.

There are so many stars.

Those precious stars tell us the date and the time.

In the future, there aren't many stars.

You can only see the few brightest stars and the others are as if they don't exist at all.

Look well.

At first, you only see the brightest star.

But if you keep looking like this...

See? The less bright ones

eventually start to shine more brightly.

Wow, I can really see more now.

The stars are not actually shining brighter,

but the person's will to see them is becoming bigger.

O

V

E

Me too... - What?

You love me?

So suddenly?

Subtitles brought to you by The Splashers @ Viki

I lived without even knowing there were so many stars on Hanyang's sky.

There were a lot of instruments covered with dust.

Even now, how does moving to the Department of Music sound?

If I talk to my father...

I was just trying to help!

L.

O.

V.

E.

Love.

This means love.

The Westerners' characters...

They have their own characters, too.

I'm depressed. I feel like we're getting behind.

When you're depressed, this is the best. Sweets.

It looks bitter. I won't eat it.

No, no! It's really sweet! Try one.

Someday, I will make Joseon's own characters.

So peasants like you can live life comfortably.

That is why I am learning math from you.

The combination of consonants and vowels doesn't come from anywhere.

Why are you staring at me like that?

Do I

look handsome?

Your Majesty, you're...

You will definitely make it.

Wow... This is amazing. Should I get his autograph?

Ah, you're much more handsome!

Did you fall into me again?

Later, I will write your name, too.

Wow.

Wow.

Wow, this... What is this?

I told you it's good!

Wow! - Wow!

Wow...

Wow.

Wow... What's this?

Well...

Chisus? (Chicken + Jesus)

Chisus?

It is amusing how they keep appearing from your bag.

I know, right? Why is this here?

Dan Bi! Dan Bi!

Why are you doing this all of a sudden?

Wait!

My daughter, you can do it! Fighting!

You can do a good job! Fighting! Fighting!

Mom...

I really liked this when I was young.

Oh... I'm sorry.

No...

What's wrong?

Don't cry! It's a royal command.

When you're depressed, this is the best. Sweets.

Hm?

How is it your fault?

It is the fault of the humans who manipulate nature for their own needs.

The water didn't drip at a constant speed because the moss, produced from trapping the water, was blocking the way.

So, if I fix it to drip at a constant pace, then my calculation is right.

I wouldn't have solved it by myself.

Hurry up! You are frustrating me.

Don't nag at me. Anyway, we are going to share the achievement fairly.

High five!

I will grant the intern the rank four for his achievement,

and the eunuch will be forgiven.

Your grace is immeasurable.

I am sorry to tell you,

but you should kick that eunuch out of the palace.

If status gets in the way of someone who cares about the people,

you should grant him a status.

How about a rank three position?

Lord, whose side are you on?

I'm on the people's side.

Times table. Times table.

Six times six. - Thirty-six.

Times table.

Seven times eight. - Uh...

Please save me. Please.

Save me...

Look here. The earth rotates around the sun. Round and round.

Do you understand what I am saying?

Oh. I have my hair tie.

So, this is the sun, and the stars are rotating around it.

Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars,

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.
