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.

It seems like someone was living in the cave of Songak Mountain.

Most of it had been burned down,

but we were able to find pieces of cloth that seem to have been

a part of a dress that women from noble families wear.

But My Lord, she could have stayed in that cave

before she fell off the cliff or it might not be hers.

She is alive.

She must be alive.

Did you look into him?

Pardon?

Oh, you mean Lady Jae-yi's lover…

He has disappeared from Gaeseong

since the funeral.

He's been teaching at the Confucian School in Gaeseong,

but no one has seen him since then.

Find him.

And

bring him to me.

And you must look into Lady Jae-yi's whereabouts.

Yes, My Lord.

Why are you looking at me like that?

You still seem to have that

baby face of yours.

Right.

We met when we were young.

You still remember?

Yes.

EPISODE 4

I told you that leaving the palace

would be dangerous, Your Highness.

It's all because of that thief we met at the valley.

That brat.

I'm sure she gave us the wrong directions on purpose.

So why did you tell me to give her money?

That's all I had on me.

You only had two nyangs on you

when you're supposed to escort the prince?

Well, I never knew you would

climb over the palace wall alone.

I thought you would be escorted by eunuchs or bodyguards.

Excuse me.

Where's Lord Min Ho-seung's place?

It's that house right over there.

I was worried about you, Your Highness.

Someone from the palace just came by asking about you.

Send a letter to the palace.

Tell them that they are both okay.

Yes, My Lord.

We ended up like this because of some thief.

You met a thief?

Yes, she was a shameless and atrocious thief who claimed to be

the owner of the valley and forced us to pay money.

The valley is used by everyone,

so how can there be an owner?

We must send a letter to the palace and arrest that thief...

-Get in here. -That hurts!

Mother, I found the thief.

This brat was the one who stole the inkstone His Majesty gave to father,

your silver ring

and all the other things

that went missing.

That...

You!

Yes, you! Look at us!

Master. It's him!

He's the thief we met.

Do you have any idea what we've been through because of you?

Was stealing money from us not enough?

You dared to steal the belongings from a nobleman?

I will make sure you get punished by the law.

Please calm down.

What shall we do?

Why are you covering for…

I'm sorry, Father.

Father?

Father?

I thought Master Min

had one son.

So how do you have two sons?

She's not a boy.

She's my sister.

Sister?

Then this boy...

I mean, this girl

is your daughter?

How dare you do such a thing?

Did you really steal money

and sell our possession?

I really needed the money.

I don't want to hear excuses.

If you broke the law,

you must take responsibility.

I must turn you in

just like His Highness said.

Please don't, My Lord.

If you have to turn someone in,

let that be me.

I'm the thief.

Lady Jae-yi saved me with that money.

I wasn't able to pay back the debt after my parents died

and was about to get sold as a slave,

so Lady Jae-yi used that money to buy me.

So

I'm the one who should be punished.

So that's why...

What is your name?

It's Yeong. Sim Yeong, Your Highness.

I haven't forgotten.

It was the first time I met him, so how could I forget?

Him?

Are you talking about Seong-on?

It was love at first sight.

No way.

You steal money from someone you're in love with?

Still, between him and you…

I mean, Your Highness…

Isn't he better looking?

No one has ever told me that

Seong-on is more handsome than me.

Well, that's the way I see it.

I'll just have to be at her mercy then.

Yes, you two will make a cute couple.

That's enough. You can call Eunuch Soh, now.

I'm wearing a eunuch's uniform anyway, you might as well think of me as one.

It's on backward, Your Highness.

You're the one who put it on me.

The yearning of love

is also part of loving someone.

You probably have no idea how happy I was

when I heard that my finacé is

Master Min's daughter Min Jae-yi.

If you ask me how I can be in love with someone arranged by our family,

I will answer it when I become your husband

on our wedding day.

I've been waiting for that day,

so please wear this to our wedding.

I asked you to come to me,

but did you run to go to someone else?

How could you do this to me?

Rice wine lees.

Wounds disappear on bodies that have been dead a while, so when you cover them with

rice wine lees and wipe it down with boiled water with birch tree barks,

the wound will reappear.

-Where do you use the vinegar? -The vinegar…

You failed!

Just give me a minute.

Gosh, you are even more impatient than a dog.

What? A dog?

I got it.

You spray vinegar on the weapon to

reveal blood stains the culprit washed off.

When you spray vinegar on the knife after heating it up,

it reveals the hidden blood stains.

You passed.

Good for you.

You passed and outsmarted your master.

How could I dare to outsmart such a precious teacher?

Your apprentice is just trying hard

to make your wisdom shine.

Yes, you must try very hard

since you're nothing compared to me at the actual scene.

Yes, Master.

Gosh, why can't I untie this?

It would be better to just cut it off completely.

Cut...

Cut it off?

Do you have scissors so that I can cut these off?

What do you mean, cut them off?

I mean, with scissors...

Are you even a eunuch?

If I'm not a eunuch, then what am I?

What did you say?

Don't you know that there are some things a eunuch should never say?

No, I just thought it would be neater without these.

What's the big...

Oh...

Oh?

I do not like him.

He is so indifferent.

I mean, we are all guys here.

You move that box to the storage yourself.

We're not going to help you!

Move.

Watch closely, Your Highness.

I put the stone on top and...

You hit it like this.

Did you see that, Your Highness?

That looks easy. I'll give it try.

Gosh, so frustrating. Let me try.

It's harder than it looks.
