Poong, The Joseon Psychiatrist (Joseon Psychiatrist Yoo Se-Poong / Joseon Jungshingwa Uisa Yoosepoong / 조선 정신과 의사 유세풍)

You fool!

Where are you going?

Goodness. The things I have to do to earn a living!

Please come with me.

What is with that face?

Did you cause trouble again?

She needs an acupuncture treatment at once!

Acupuncture?

You cannot leave like that!

Hurry. Her pulse is weak.

Insert a needle into the glabella at once.

You and that mouth of yours.

Shut it, unless you wish to do this yourself!

Who is she?

She is the family's eldest daughter-in-law.

Please save her.

She will be okay, right?

Go get the lady of the house.

Pardon me?

I must discuss the details with your master.

About the remedy...

and how much they can afford to get her treated.

Yes, sir.

She must be the one you pulled out of the water.

The one who ran away.

Hello.

How is my daughter-in-law? Is she okay?

She is not in critical condition.

But if she is not treated, her wound will fester.

Gosh, my dear daughter-in-law.

Does she want to follow her deceased husband?

Those who are alive must live on.

Forget about my herbal decoction.

Please focus on treating her.

I will pay you very well.

I will make an herbal decoction with top-quality ingredients.

I will do my very best.

Very well. I trust you.

Thank you, ma'am.

You can give him that.

Yes, my lady.

Oh, my! She is very generous.

You can have this with your staff at the clinic.

What is this?

Pickled Siberian onion leaves.

It is the family's specialty. Try it.

Pickled onion leaves?

Hold it properly, or the juice will leak.

This is nice.

Mind your own business. Why worry about their family affairs...

when you can barely take care of yourself?

I did not say anything.

Do not put on a long face!

That good-looking face is all you have got.

Will you treat patients with such a frowning face?

What kind of physician treats patients with his face?

You are a dunce who cannot administer acupuncture.

So you need to use all you have got, which is your face.

What?

Do you want to try?

When patients come, just hear them out.

Nod along when they vent their anger.

That is your job from now on.

You dunce!

You are probably thinking...

that I am talking nonsense because I am drunk now.

"I cannot administer acupuncture,"

"so what is the point?" I bet you are thinking that now.

Wait and see.

It could save...

or kill someone.

What a nice day!

Who says you must do it in the air?

Who says the rope must be held above our heads?

My gosh.

- I got this. - What are you doing?

This is mine!

What?

Do not misunderstand my intentions.

I am trying to help you. I want to help.

You see, I am really good at stuff like this.

- You boar! - What?

I will tell Poong on you...

if you do not go away at once!

"Poong"? What is "Poong"?

Who is that?

You do not know Poong? My Poong.

My handsome Poong.

Poong!

- You are back. - Yes.

Poong!

You must be tired, Poong.

"Poong"? That physician's name is Poong?

Yes, my Poong.

Wait, why...

What is the matter with my young master?

I bet my father cursed him.

You and your foul mouth, Father!

You curse every time you open your mouth.

Have some class.

I am truly disappointed too.

You fools are being ridiculous.

Go prepare lunch!

When will Lady Namhae come back?

We will all starve to death before she returns.

Oh, dear.

You will save many,

so stay alive, okay?

Did you do this on purpose?

You had to cause such a scene when the physicians were here?

Do you want people to spread rumors...

that I picked on my widowed daughter-in-law?

No, my lady. Please do not get the wrong idea.

Take her and give her a good beating.

As for Lady Seo, lock her up in the storage.

Get rid of all the sharp objects so she cannot do this again.

Please, my lady.

If you lock her up again, she really will die!

Please, my lady. I beg you.

What are you waiting for?

Yes, my lady.

No, my lady! No!

I will go to the storage, so please do not hurt her.

Daughter-in-law,

how this ends depends on you.

If you keep this up,

people will say you are being too harsh on her.

Who will say such a thing?

Ask anyone on the streets.

On top of getting my eldest son killed,

she is disgracing the family now.

Everyone will say she should pay for it with her life.

You have me, Mother.

You did not pass the provincial exam yet again.

It is such a shame.

I suppose I am not smart enough.

Do not say that.

It is not easy to obtain a government position.

I am sorry to put you through this.

Do not be sorry. You are here too, my lady.

Did she order you to make sure I empty the bowl?

Yes.

She is giving you food so you do not have to take it...

on an empty stomach.

I suppose she does not hate you that much after all.

Eun Woo.

Drink this.

So you can live.

I told you that he had to eat well to get better.

If only there was anything to eat.

There is only so much bark one can eat.

Rather than starving yourself for over a month,

you should have come to me.

We were born with mouths for a reason.

Were you saving your words for the afterlife?

Granny, hand him some barley, will you?

When I cannot even pay for the treatments?

What is new? Now, get going already.

Over here!

Let us go.

- Physician Gye. - My goodness.

Could you please see me next?

- Physician Gye. - Please.

Please see me next.

Young Master Yoo.

Well,

it seems as though you should get out there.

Physician Gye is threatening to call the officer...

or to extend your contract for another day.

Back in Hanyang, your eyes flickered with light...

every time you saw someone sick...

and stuck needles everywhere,

including a lady's chest area, putting yourself in a predicament.

So why you are refusing to see patients here is beyond me.

- Please. - Physician Gye.

What is the meaning of this?

Put me down this instant.

How dare you.

I sense a strong pulse.

Consuming warm food...

Father, come and see this.

Please help me, Physician Yoo.

- Let me check your pulse first. - Thank you.

May I take your hand?

- Next. - This is what is troubling me.

Look how convenient this is.

All this time, we have been running around like foolish monkeys.

Foolish monkeys?

That is what Ip Bun said.

It is easier to serve patients their medicine.

Jang Gun, you!

Silly girl. You have been making a habit of belittling me.

A physician from Hanyang sure is different though.

Not only is he handsome, but he is also talented.

His face is practically glowing.

You dunce.

As if the patients will be able to read Chinese characters.

That arrogant fool.

Father, rather than taking it out on Physician Yoo,

do this instead.
