Episode 12
(Episode 12) I am taking charge Prepare the ranks immediately Did you not hear my command?! See here, commander! You are demanding too much! These soldiers did not sleep a wink all night! Let them rest for one hour The rebel leader who killed hundreds of soldiers from the capital is stuck in a corner If we lose him will you take responsibility? My lord Can we talk? Soldiers do not have bodies made of iron Though you may deny it in my eyes this is not about capturing Jang Sung-Baek and stopping a conspiracy but rather your attachment to Chae-Ohk I think you are obsessed with Chae-Ohk I will not disagree However, if you saw this as an obsession it is because I want to stop the rebels That man is Jang Sung-Baek You are pursuing Jang Sung-Baek because of personal feelings Before you hunt a tiger bear in mind your subordinates' condition You are not the same as you once were Please think of your soldiers at least half as much as you think of Chae-Ohk Won-Hae, stop this now! Sir! I cannot work like this either! Do you mean that you will no longer serve under me? Who do we have here? Aren't you Captain Yang Jin-Ho from district headquarters? Long time no see So you were sent by headquarters - Ah, this man is - I am Left Police Bureau Commander Hwangbo Yoon You have worked very hard General, you may return to the office with your troops Thank you! Men, withdraw! You too, commander Please go back to the capital city I will stay here My superior general made the order so return to the city Jang Sung-Baek is being pursued by the Police Bureau I also came by order of the Police Chief Fine In exchange follow my orders Follow? You are of the same rank as the commander I have never heard of a law like that! Do not interfere! Well then are you saying I have to follow the commander's orders? We know this situation better! - We can consult each other as we - Will you not stop?! My lord! Confusion is already being created It would be better if you returned! Let's go back Not at all Please relax Officer Lee Return to the Police Bureau Did you not hear me? Officer Lee! Hey! Hey Won-Hae Hey man Don't hold onto me There is no officer who comes out alive after serving under a commander who loses his composure You know as well I can't live under the same sky as these rebels My grandfather my father Both of them died at the hands of rebels Me and mother came this far living without even the money to buy barley rice That's why I didn't get married After meeting Commander Hwangbo I thought that maybe now I could get married That's all gone I know.
I really do Serve him well, sir Won-Hae Listen to what I say We clashed with Jang Sung-Baek yesterday afternoon That captain came running here in one night Even if the general sent a letter to district headquarters there's no way they could move that fast The conspiracy may have spread to the government This isn't a typical insurrection We're in deep The two of us ordinary guys Let's do something big Go to the district headquarters of Hae-Ju right now Return as fast as you can They are hiding somewhere on this mountain Understood.
I will lead another manhunt so please keep guard of all strategic points on the roads I will search with you Did you not say you would follow my command? Your lips are all dry Please take me to a place with water I must clean my wound The infection is serious Wouldn't it be better than the smell of rotting flesh? You can be so cruel Please pour me some water Don't order me around It's a request The queen wants to select a wife for the Crown Prince soon I will issue the command for the selection and before winter comes, I will welcome a new princess However with a great national event before us you still have not comforted the royal court and the people What have you been doing, Police Chief? I am sorry, Your Highness Simply bowing your head is not enough This is such a pity a real pity Your father and grandfather accomplished so many great deeds for this country during the hardships in the past that they are regarded as honorable protectors of this land It seems that it is difficult to extend that honor to three generations Your Highness The Police Chief's accomplishments for the security of the capital are also great As the adviser said Know that the reason you still have your job is because of those many accomplishments Your Highness There is something urgent I must tell you in private You may leave Tell me, Police Chief I have found the trail of the conspiracy Even one of my subordinates in the Police Bureau is connected to the conspiracy Who is it? I cannot tell you yet, Your Highness I asked who it is Minister of Defense Jung Pil-Joon Your Highness This is the letter of resignation of the Minister of Defense who served me Your Highness Like the other Ministers fear how could I not know the Japanese who cannot keep a promise? I suspect the officials who advise you would wish to have me stoned and rebuked Through the official residence of Japanese foreigners in Kyung-kang if we could improve our country's economy just a little bit the disgrace of days past would be over-ruled after the nation's wealth and power are achieved Please dismiss me so you may avoid further controversy but do not waste actual profits I, Jung Pil-Joon dare to tell Your Highness The only one capable of following your orders is your trustworthy Left Bureau Police Chief Joh Seh-Ook If you command him to strictly control the official residence of foreigners the other Ministers Will trust in your decision If I could see that even after death then I would receive an executioner's blade with a smile What do you think? Officials who wish to remove the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Defense who risks his life and stands firm against them Who Who are you saying I should trust? My lord What are you doing? What about your post? My lord, well umm It is about Officer Lee Please do not do anything rash You might regret it later Officer Baek Yes, my lord How far away is the district headquarters of Hae-Ju where Captain Yang Jin-Ho came from? Hey I'll handle things here so you guys go grab something to eat Officer Lee ordered us not to leave the Commander's side You idiots don't listen Why are you taking orders from him? You fools Get out of here right now! Now! Did you send Officer Lee back to the Police Bureau? I sent Officer Lee to Hae-Ju We cannot be sure that the captain and all of district headquarters are involved in the conspiracy I just wish that your and my guesses are wrong As soon as Officer Lee finds out and comes back we must drive back that captain There is no need for that Help that man so that he can catch Jang Sung-Baek The moment he and his troops capture Jang Sung-Baek I will issue my orders It's only you, me and the elite officers Wait but do not put your sword down Yes, my lord We will topple them all at once This is Gak-Chool's dead body Our boss is trapped on the mountain and many brothers have died But What are you doing? Are you repaying our last three years of working together like this? Sit down You death-deserving Fool! Don't be so narrow-minded Take a look Gak-Chool died for the sake of the new world Are you saying that the man who has the judgement to make decisions is going to be in a small room playing baduc?! This is something Boss Jang brought on himself Magistrate Choi! Right now Right now, if I lay my stone one turn too early or one turn too late, I will die! Don't change the subject Make the district headquarter troops withdraw "Make the district headquarter troops withdraw " It seems I did not take my turn too late Black stones and white stones all of them are my baduc stones Then the captain who came from district headquarters is one of us? Wouldn't it be best if you move as I tell you to? Search carefully! We have to find his body! No one is born wishing to be a rebel Last year I found my mother who had caught the plague Instead of being treated she was chased out of town and died from starvation Her whole body was covered with bruises from all the stones that hit her That is how she lived her whole life and that is how she died That is how the people of Korea live these days You better be quiet My young seven year old sister right before my eyes was dragged away like an animal If that child were alive she would be over 20 years old now She would be married by now If she had a child that boy would be a lowly slave What is right and wrong? Treating sick people and giving food to starving people Is that wrong? People using other people like animals abusing them and having full stomachs when they do not work Is that right? I do not know such things I used to dream about the "good life" where I would hold a shovel instead of a sword and till a field and find a wife and raise a child My "good life" is the treason and conspiracy you speak of I want to live I must see a new world Jang Sung-Baek! Jang Sung-Baek! Wake up! Jang Sung-Baek! Jang Sung-Baek! Wake up! Jang Sung-Baek! While I was with you on the mountain I could not have been happier I always held my sword and lived with a hatred of this world I was not afraid of anybody The moment I first saw you I wanted to cast my sword aside As my heart fell for you I became more and more afraid I hated to think that someday I would have to cross swords with you For the first time in my life I wanted to lay down my sword and lead an ordinary life In the end it was a useless hope Even if I die here I will not be able to forget you Don't misunderstand I only want to take you prisoner What is the matter? Answer me! Is anyone down there? Is anyone down there? Chae-Ohk Are you there? Chae-Ohk! Chae-Ohk! Are you there? Hurry and answer him Chae-Ohk! Chae-Ohk! Hurry and answer! Is anyone there? Chae-Ohk! She's here! Chae-Ohk! Chae-Ohk! Are you alive? My life is nothing without you Why did you not answer? Shouldn't at least you survive? If it were you what would you have done? I didn't think Just my instincts I'm cold Hug me We combed the whole mountain I don't think Boss Jang is alive What does that mean? Even though we did not find Boss Jang we cannot be sure that he died I know how you feel However You must prepare your hearts If something that cannot be undone happens you must remember that Boss Jang strived for a new world See here! Why are you suddenly doing this? If you leave how will we capture Jang Sung-Baek and find find our damo Chae-Ohk? Move it, idiot! We are only following orders to withdraw You can't! What are you doing over there with your arms crossed? Huh? After these troops leave will the villagers search? Huh? Get over here and hold onto them! Has he plugged his ears? Why is he just waving his fingers? It's like he's commanding a stupid dog Go, and I'll go Come, and I'll come.
Is that it? I'm a dog, huh? I'm coming since you said come What What's going on? Follow those troops and that captain and watch where they go Why doesn't he go himself? Does he have to order me around to feel good about himself? I hope you stumble as you walk along! My lord! My lord the captain is withdrawing I think he's caught on to us Name What is your name? You've gone crazy Did you swallow the poison? I didn't have time to think The cuts inside my mouth I said I don't need you! More than being left behind I would rather die Don't look at me with those eyes It's not your mistake I'm sorry that I'm leaving you alone I love you If I am reborn let's not let's not meet again Never Jang Sung-Baek! Jang Sung-Baek! Chae-Ohk Jae-Hui Jang Jae-Hui That's my real name Why aren't you waking up? Why did you give up? We could get out together Open your eyes You said you wanted to see a new world You said you wanted to live together I didn't answer you yet Open your eyes I also I love you Please open your eyes Please Let's get out together Let's live together I'm sick of being alone like this Don't die Don't die You can't You can't Don't die! Don't die! Don't die! You can't! Don't die! Don't die! You can't! I heard you were evacuating It seems that Jang Sung-Baek is no longer on this mountain so you should return too Well then Captain! The place to which you will return is not the district headquarters in Hae-Ju but the Left Police Bureau of the capital You are asking for death! Whether I have one enemy or 100 enemies to me you are all just one lump of enemies I will kill you all What the Where did you suddenly fall from? Chae-Ohk! They're all with the rebels Hurry and cross over here Capture that girl! Try taking another step, you scoundrels! I'll cut off your Boss's head! Chae-Ohk, get over here quickly! What are you waiting for? Are you legs frozen in place? Hurry! Come over to this side! Say you will trade Boss Jang for me Cast aside your sword Give us Boss Jang Then I'll give this girl to you Now! My lord! I heard you cared about this girl more than anybody Are you going to kill her like this? My lord Let's give them Jang Sung-Baek If that girl dies you will die as well Dying is another means of living Give us Boss Jang! Captain! You call that a deal? He is a criminal convicted of treason and she is only a damo My lord! You cannot, my lord! Do as you wish I have no choice but to slit this girl's throat! No! No! OK! You scoundrel! Let's exchange I said let's exchange! Officer Baek! My lord! We can always capture someone who is alive But how can we revive someone who is dead? Is Chae-Ohk a stranger? Was Chae-Ohk only a damo to us? I more than the head of a rebel leader would choose to save the life of one of our family! Afterwards Punish me later! Sir! Let go, you idiot! Stop! I said stop! Officer Baek! Kill them! Our suspicions were correct If we were just a little late we would have been in big trouble Chae-Ohk, Chae-Ohk! You have no idea! I'm happier than if my wife had died and come back to life Chae-Ohk! Are you all right? My lord! I will receive my punishment Confine her immediately! I order you to confine Jang Chae-Ohk immediately! Everything was almost ruined You must severely reprimand Jang Sung-Baek I will do that However the problem is Police Chief Joh Seh-Ook The King has revoked his trust in him - He is just a toothless tiger - A tiger does not eat grass roots when it loses teeth His claws are still alive What do you mean? Joh Seh-Ook is a man with moral influence and holds the trust of the military If that man shares the same goals as us it would be easy to settle any protest from the military It is not in that man's nature to serve two Kings at once Then the betrayal he causes may be greater! We must be careful Joh Seh-Ook's devotion is deeper than anything We will see about that You cannot, sir! Leave! Sir! Father! What made you like this? You cannot do this Losing my brother was bad enough so how can you tell me to live all alone? Rather take me with you Go in and rest Yes, sir Sit up Jang Sung-Baek was in our hands You know that was our best chance of stopping the conspiracy Why did you become a hostage and save him? I asked why you did it Do you love that man? Starting tomorrow, I am no longer a commander When I arrive at the Police Bureau, I will tell the Police Chief and resign You will come with me to where my mother is I cannot become your wife That! I will decide that You will come with me I cannot bear children The monk told me that I only need you You have already promised your hand in marriage I was deceiving myself I am lowly and unworthy of you Then I will humble myself My lord I do not know why I am like this I do not know why I am doing this when I should be thrusting my sword at him The more I bite my tongue the deeper and deeper I fall for him I do not know why Let's go Let's go far away where you can forget about Jang Sung-Baek Let's go anywhere I will no longer fool myself I can go back as the child of a mistress We can live as commoners Did you not say that you were breathing because I was here I am the same Without you I cannot live You could have my body that's for sure but my heart is already gone
I really do Serve him well, sir Won-Hae Listen to what I say We clashed with Jang Sung-Baek yesterday afternoon That captain came running here in one night Even if the general sent a letter to district headquarters there's no way they could move that fast The conspiracy may have spread to the government This isn't a typical insurrection We're in deep The two of us ordinary guys Let's do something big Go to the district headquarters of Hae-Ju right now Return as fast as you can They are hiding somewhere on this mountain Understood.
