Warrior Baek Dong Soo (Musa Baek Dong Soo / 무사 백동수)

Warrior Baek Dong Soo

Traitor Gim Gwang Taek

helped a rebel to escape.

According to the King's Law, the death penalty is to be carried out.

This child, whose family is to be annihilated, shall be boiled alive.

Mercy! Please have mercy! I beg you!

Why aren't you proceeding?

Stop!

The criminal, Gim Gwang Taek, is pardoned.

This is His Majesty's Royal edict.

To save this child, I'm willing to sacrifice an arm.

If I can't even save a new born baby...

what's the use of having an arm?

Please forgive me.

I'm...

I'm useless...

You are the next monarch of this nation.

Please have have a strong heart and resolute mind.

It took us a long way to get here.

We can't let this end with just the loss of one arm.

Leave quickly and contact Heuksa Chorong. (Heuksa Chorong = Qing Dynasty's Hired Assassins Guild)

What?

This is an opportunity.

Do you understand?

Move aside!

Hyeongnim!

This...

Damn guy!

Old man!

Get up!

Get up!

Your son cut off hyeongnim's hand.

Come with me. Let's go!

I deserve to die a thousand deaths.

Please let... let... let... me go.

Shut your foul mouth!

Treat hyeongnim's arm first!

Then save that child!

Not only must you save him,

you have to make him normal!

Otherwise,

I'll make you live the rest of your life without limbs.

Do you understand?

I know... I know...

I heard Sword Saint lost an arm.

The Gayageum's tune

is like those days of the cold and lonely winter-frost.

Drawing paper in white plum, that is blooming in the snow.

The both of you are really a match made in heaven.

Ah right...

I don't know if you've heard about it.

The Sword Saint lost an arm.

That's really...

After the lesson he taught me...

why are you even surprised hearing about what happened to him.

I'm really jealous of the Sword Saint.

Sir Hong Dae Ju is looking for you.

That is the prize for the Sword Saint's head

With that amount, you won't think it's too little.

It looks like Gwang Taek's head is very expensive.

Aside from that, we have to get rid of Baek Sa Goeng's child.

Sir,

it seems that you've found the wrong person.

Plotting behind his back is bad enough.

Now you even want me to kill a baby.

Do you think I'm so frivolous?

Can it be that you're thinking of breaking our agreement?

Agreement?

Agreement...

If you hang it on your ear, it's called earring. If you hang it on your nose, it's a nose ring.

Agreements are always changing.

Besides,

for someone like you who shoots down the birds in the sky...

why would you even care about our agreement?

Is that what is really inside you?

You be the judge.

I'll be leaving now.

I really want to take that temper of his

and throw it into a mortar and grind it.

Sir,

Sir, you may not notice but I understand etiquette very well.

Furthermore, we been dealing for a day or two.

So,

I'll just accept your gift.

Among all metals, gold is the most delicious one.

With these... even distorted bones can be improved?

I don't know.

I cannot be certain about the future.

But right now I can not think of any other way.

Until when must he live with those bamboo splints?

As short as a few months

or as long as a lifetime.

Luckily, his bone has not hardened yet.

If we do this,

it should get better.

Are you leaving now?

Sir Hong Dae Ju will definitely not leave any unfinished business that he might regret.

He already cut off my arm.

He definitely won't leave me alone.

He won't stop until I'm dead.

Then again,

there is no reason for you to continue staying in Joseon.

Therefore... I plan to take Dong Su with me.

What?

He is the son of Sa Goeng whom Sir Hong Dae Ju hates.

You think since he's just a baby, Hong Dae Ju will just stand by and do nothing?

You are right... but your health is also not that good.

If you take him along, where can you go?

I'll be fine.

Do you plan to return to your home town?

Yes.

It is also not right for me to continue staying here.

I plan to leave immediately.

Then, on the way you might as well go to Cho Sang and take a look.

Cho Sang hyeongnim?

Didn't he just have a child at the old age...

Wouldn't it be better if you greet hyeongnim yourself?

Yes, I got it.

What do you plan to do? Are you leaving immediately?

The way I see it, there's no need to wait.

You must explain to His Royal Highness properly.

Yes.

You can give the child to me.

It is so unfortunate that I have nothing to say.

Where did you lose that arm of yours?

What's this about?

I'm not here for your life, so there's no need to worry.

What is that in your arm?

You don't have to know.

You really are very stubborn my friend.

You just need to bear this in mind...

Regardless of when... I'll will be waiting for you.

Anytime.

The wine is good.

Hey, Gwang Taek.

If you choose that road,

take care of yourself.

There is more than one friend who was sent to finish you.

What's wrong?

You're not as good as before because you lost an arm?

Do I need to to lend you my arm?

Then you can cut if off!

It should be very painful.

Hate it... Hate it.

Or you can put down the child in your arm.

In dealing with scums like you...

One arm is enough.

What is this?

Hyeongnim!

Cho Sang hyeongnim!

Who are you?

Aren't you Dae Po?

What is this all about?

Don't say anymore!

Because I have not paid my debt

these guys beat me up as if they're beating a wild dog.

That's really...

Here. These should be more than enough.

Let's go, Hyeongnim.

Killer Star Destiny?

Hyeongnim, your child is born with a Killer Star Destiny?

She's carrying a child who has a Killer Star Destiny.

Furthermore, one who is extremely vicious.

Hyeongnim is really...

Where can you find such a thing as Killer Star Destiny in this world?

How can you believe that superstition?

What a pity on Hyeongnim's name.

My name.

We've already discussed this before...

I, Yeo Cho Sang...

In terms of martial arts, I am not better than Gwang Taek...

But if it's about predicting a person's Eight Character Destiny, I don't miss a thing!

Don't you feel disgraced at all?

Sword Saint hyeongnim lost an arm without committing any crime!

What? Did something happen to Gwang Taek?

None. Nothing happened.

Better take good care of your health.

Stop drinking will you!

Because of this wine, sooner or later we'll be holding a funeral.

You kid... I am Yeo Cho Sang.... Cho Sang.

Ah... this really tastes great.

That child is born with a Killer Star Destiny.

If continues to live,

His hands will be stained with blood.

Get out of my way!

You can not...

Child,

you should not have been born into this world.

I really do not understand why you have been born as my child.

Because of me... a person like you was born

I will personally take care of this situation.

You have already started to kill others.

Do you understand...

being born with a Killer Star Destiny is your fate.

Your death... will save the lives of many.

So do not blame your father!

Why isn't the child crying?

He knows that even if he cries,

his mother and father won't be there for him.

This child has very bright eyes.
