Will you be my friend again?

Your Highness.

There wasn't a single moment

when I wasn't your friend.

I'm planning to make that miracle every day.

I will have a friend, I will trust that friend

and I will protect him.

I'll see you at the training grounds later.

Archery practice was getting boring

since I haven't someone to compete with.

Yes, Your Highness.

EPISODE 10

Are you happy that you have a friend again?

You seem happy.

You've been smiling all the way back.

Why are you looking at me like that?

Will you be my friend too?

Do you think a man and a woman can't be friends?

No.

It's just that this hatred is starting to fill me up again.

When you kicked me out, I was so sad.

Did you feel good after kicking me out?

That's why I apologized.

I'm sorry.

That's it?

That was too short and simple.

I want you to say it again,

but more longer and detailed this time.

I need you.

I want you to stay with me.

Just tell me that.

I missed you, Jae-yi.

Why are you not saying anything?

What about you?

You probably didn't even think about me while staying at Manyeondang.

Why are you speechless?

Without you by my side,

the East Palace felt emptier than ever.

Is it that hard for you to apologize?

I apologized in my thoughts.

You also talked to yourself,

so just tried thinking to myself.

-No way. -How dare you.

You eavesdropped when I was talking to myself.

So it's only fair if you tell me

what you were thinking.

I was thinking about something you should never know.

Come on. Are you serious?

Isn't better than swearing at a chair?

You even kicked it.

You were imagining that I'm the chair. right?

-That's that -"That's that"?

This is foul play.

Enough. Go and get some rest.

No, Your Highness. How could I?

I'll escort you to the East Palace.

It's getting late.

Go and get some rest.

You may be dressed as a man,

but I haven't forgotten that you're a woman.

Oh, if you go back,

late-night snacks will be waiting for you.

If I miss lunchtime, no one will get me lunch.

He never once asked me if I had dinner.

I'm not the irrational person you may think I am.

I asked Tae-gang to prepare it beforehand. Go on inside and eat.

Your Highness.

Aren't you hungry?

We've been walking together for miles.

Wow!

Japchae and beef tartare!

I haven't seen you guys in a while.

Cookies made in the palace are as sweet as honey. It's so sweet.

My apologies, Your Highness.

That was so rude of me.

Oh.

Have some. It's really good.

It's out of this world.

You're still awake?

His Highness has changed.

I felt that way too.

I had no idea

you prepared fireworks for my wedding.

Didn't you say that

throwing too big of a big party goes

against the integrity of a scholar?

With the fireworks, people would gather from everywhere

and the whole village would've been boisterous.

You are my only son.

People gathering around,

laughing, and eating together

at my son's wedding isn't

too big of a party.

I think it's time we clean up in here.

It's been in here for too long.

I will have the niter sent to Gaeseong through the Weapons Bureau.

She's dead.

Do not concern yourself anymore

with finding a dead person.

It's meaningless.

Once the Crown Princess is chosen,

I will look for a new spouse for you,

so keep that in mind.

The future of our family depends on it, so we can't keep postponing it.

I found you, Jang Ga-ram.

But he's a man.

How come you're calling him Jang Ga-ram? She seems much thinner in the picture.

A lot of girls dress up as men to avoid the choesoeryeong.

I'm sure it's her.

Should we go get her now?

Gosh.

What if the bounty hunters come for me?

Gosh, I am anxious every day.

No, whether I live or die,

it'll be for Lady Jae-yi.

I wonder why she left Gaeseong.

Why do we have to know why she left?

Min Jae-yi might be alive.

She came all the way to Hanyang dressed up as a man

to probably meet her owner, Min Jae-yi.

Oh, you're going to catch Jae-yi and turn them both over?

Where should we turn them over to get our money's worth.

We should turn them over to Section Chief Han.

That little brat has stained

the reputation of the noble...

You still have a lot to learn.

Do you have another plan in mind?

I'm thinking about turning them over to Lord Cho.

Where would Lord Cho use them?

Didn't you hear that Lord Cho is

buying information from all over the country?

He'll pay us more than Section Chief Han

since he's one of the state councilors.

So that's what happened.

The Crown Prince himself proved Lord Han's innocence

to save his friend and his family.

Well, he will become a wise king.

Gosh, he's nosy.

Will you be okay, My Lord?

You really think I started all this without a backup plan?

Thank you for letting me know what happened.

Then I should get going, My Lord.

Did we receive any news?

What news?

-You really don't know? -I don't.

About that letter that says "Song, Ga, Myeol."

Watch your mouth.

If we heard any news, it would be about that.

They didn't contact us because it's a village matter.

Someone might have recognized him even with the mask on.

I heard you went to the Office of Shamanism.

Why did you cause a ruckus?

If the plum tree catching on fire has something to do with the shaman

then it has something to do with you.

How much do you know?

What if someone hears you?

What would I know? I just do as I'm told.

If you do as you're told,

we can go back home, right?

What if we don't go back?

Should we just keep living under fake names and a fake hometown?

I have to get my name back.

Let's just go back to Naeahn Village...

Stop talking nonsense

and pack some stuff to send to Naeahn Village.

The monk will be here soon.

Is the plum tree that caught on fire has nothing to do with Lord Han,

then are the thieves of Byeokcheon really up to something?

Gosh, how did you know I like to drink?

You truly are very generous.

I feel so good.

You were pretty cool today.

When you got all serious in Section Chief Han's shed,

it made me feel all good.

Are you thinking about Seong-on?

No.

I was just reminded of the candles I saw in his shed.

Once you find out the truth, you will be able to clear your name

and light the candles.

Section Chief Han is such a great person.

It took my father so long to choose him as my husband.

But I just liked him without knowing

he was such a good person.

-What do you mean by that? -Getting married was never my choice.

Think about it.

Marriage is a promise between families,

so liking him would be better

than hating him.

But didn't you say you fell for Seong-on and that it was love at first sight?

I never had the time to fall for him.
