OUR BLOOMING YOUTH

THIS DRAMA IS A WORK OF FICTION.

ALL CHARACTERS, ORGANIZATIONS, LOCATIONS, INCIDENTS, AND RELIGIONS

DEPICTED IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS.

SCENES INVOLVING ANIMALS WERE CREATED WITH PROPS AND VISUAL EFFECTS.

Is it dried peony blossom?

What's that smell?

Did Mother light a scented candle?

Did I see peony blossom in the kitchen that day?

Try to regain your memories as soon as possible.

You must remember what happened that day.

You can do it.

What is it that I can't remember?

Something I missed.

Something I forgot.

Jae-yi.

Right. Yeong came by.

Was everything she said to me a lie?

I met Min Jae-yi at the hunting grounds

when someone shot an arrow at me.

Was she really the one...

This isn't my bow.

...Who tried to shoot me?

What happened at the ceremony was a trick.

It's strange that she figured out what happened at the ceremony right away.

If you didn't send that secret letter,

how could I have known about the ghost's letter?

Was the one who sent the letter working with Min Jae-yi?

No.

It just does not make sense.

Even if they are working together, there's no reason

for her to kill her own family.

But...

I can't keep her around anymore.

Bring me Sun-dol.

Pardon? Why do you want me to bring him?

Bring him.

Bring him right in front of me now.

Didn't you hear what I said?

Bring Go Sun-dol here right now!

Yeong came to the kitchen that day.

If I tell His Highness,

maybe he'll help me find the answer.

Well, speak of the devil.

Why are you doing this?

What is going on? Let me go.

Your Highness, the guard of Crown Prince is here.

Your Highness, I brought him as per your orders.

Please give us the room.

Tell all the servants to leave the building.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness, what is...

Is this what you and him wore as a symbol of love?

No, Your Highness.

This isn't a symbol of love.

He gave it to me as a friend, a friend like a brother,

because he was sad to see me leave.

There was no lie in the records.

What you said was a lie.

Everything was a lie.

I will never trust a single word coming from your mouth again.

Your Highness, how could you...

You said you trusted me.

Read it.

This letter was meant for you.

To Jae-yi, my love.

I'm sorry we couldn't

leave together and get married.

I'm sorry I betrayed your trust.

Nothing made me happier or gave me more pain

than the love you gave me.

I will still love you from up above.

I love you just as much as you love me.

"From up above"?

Your Highness, how did this letter get sent to me?

This isn't true.

Your Highness, this is a lie.

You have to believe me.

Yeong could never do this...

Shut your mouth, right now!

It's the last words of a man before he died.

It is a suicide note.

He hung himself

in the house of the woman he loved.

So how could his suicide note be a lie?

Tell me.

Explain this.

Since when were you lying to me?

The secret letter must've been a lie.

The arrow and the written prayer...

It was all you, wasn't it?

No, Your Highness.

It wasn't me, Your Highness.

Enough, no more will I listened to.

Listening to your lies won't do anything for me.

It's useless.

I don't care

whether or not you poisoned your family

-because of your secret lover. -Your Highness.

-Is anyone out there? -Your Highness.

Is anyone out there?

What is going on? Why is everyone...

Is anyone out there?

Yes, Your Highness.

Get Go Sun-dol out of here.

Your Highness.

Your Highness. Please just give me a chance.

Do not step foot in the East Palace again.

No.

It wasn't me. I never lied to you, Your Highness.

Please just give me a chance to explain.

Your Highness.

Good going.

Eunuchs who got here easily get fired that easily as well.

Don't ever come here again.

Gosh.

Go home and get some sleep

and go to the Office of Eunuchs tomorrow morning.

I will send them a letter.

I'm sorry.

Why would His Highness take his suicide note?

Since when was he investigating that case?

My Lord, there is one more thing.

Lady Jae-yi's servant also disappeared.

We think she may have run away with Lady Jae-yi.

Her name is Ga-ram

and she's Jang Chi-su's cousin.

Find her.

We must at least find her servant.

Yes, My Lord.

EPISODE 7

Oh, where do you live?

Hanbat Village.

Go home early from now on.

Is there a way to contact Eunuch Go?

There's no way for us to contact him first.

Are you worried?

I told you that

Eunuch Go's injuries were minor.

Yes.

I see you are still worried.

We must've gotten close since then.

There must be a new poster.

Don't tear it off again, Master.

What is it? What does it say?

That's why you need to learn how to read.

Since you can't read these posters,

you don't even know what's going on in the world.

Fine. I'll learn.

So what does it say?

Her face seems familiar...

One of Master Min's servants has disappeared

so they ordered a chusoeryeong.

TO SEND A SERVANT BACK TO HIS OWNER

Her name is Jang Ga-ram.

Wait. What?

She kind of looks like you, doesn't she?

What? That is so not true.

I'm a man.

Are you mad because I said you look like a girl?

Lady Jae-yi's whereabouts

is still unknown,

but I guess they're concluding the case with her as the culprit.

Violating the moral principles is the most serious crime in Joseon.

Her house will vanish soon.

What does that mean?

When someone violates the moral principles, they tear down

the house, dig a hole and make a lake.

The servants become government slaves,

but I wonder how she ran away...

Is that servant with

Lady Jae-yi right now?

If they are together, it may have been easier to

stay in hiding by depending on each other.

-Isn't that right? -Yes, Master.

What will happen to the servant?

She broke the law, so she'll be punished.

Male servants who run away will have the word "servant" burned into

their left cheek and female servants will have it burned into

their right so they never run away...

What's wrong?

Your face is all pale.

How can there be such an awful punishment?

Right.

I also think it's awful,

but what are you going to do? It's the law.

Yeong.

I can't believe you're dead.

I can't believe you committed suicide.

Why did Yeong leave such a suicide note?

Why was Yeong in the kitchen that day?

And why can't I remember

what we talked about

that day?

It's so frustrating.
