Brought to you by jss jumong subbing squad.
Don't move!
Get them!
Did you get hurt?
No, I'm okay.
Where's chief so seo-no?
Manager sa-yong!
General!
How did you get here?
I met chan-soo while I was looking for you guys
after finding out that chief so seo-no is injured.
Did you get the medicine?
Here are the herbs that you've asked for.
Be on the lookout and check song-Yang's headquarter.
Yes.
What happened?
We couldn't find them yet.
You pathetic fools...
We're attacking gyehru right now.
Stop the search and gather the soldiers!
What are you doing?
I said, summon the soldiers!
Grand chief!
The war supplies tent and our provisions were burned down.
We can get into great trouble if we attack gyehru in this condition.
More the reason to wipe them out at once.
Summon the troops!
Chief!
Are you okay?
General...
We might've been unable to treat you without the general's help.
Thank you.
Don't move.
You're losing too much blood. You must get back to gyehru immediately and rest.
I'll keep song-Yang's headquarters busy.
You can take chief so seo-no to gyehru in the meantime.
General.
Song-Yang's army is mobilizing right now.
I think they're going to attack gyehru.
Then they must've stopped the search.
We have to get chief so seo-no out of here.
This way!
You'll need to take chief so seo-no from here.
The da-mul army and I will block song-Yang.
I'll send a message to gyehru.
Don't mobilize the troops wait for me.
Yes.
Let's go.
We must get back to gyehru immediately and treat the chief.
Hurry.
Yes.
What happened?
We saved chief so seo-no and sent her to gyehru.
Well done.
Although chief so seo-no failed to assassinate song-Yang,
she successfully burned the war supplies tent down.
If song-Yang's provisions have been burned down,
wouldn't it be better for us to go into a long-term war?
That's exactly why song-Yang wants to make an all-out attack.
He's right.
Song-Yang is launching an all-out attack after losing his provisions
because he has faith in the han's reinforcements.
If we go to war with the biryu army along with the han's reinforcements,
both the da-mul army and gyehru will suffer great loss.
That's right.
Even if the gyehru army and the da-mul army join forces,
we're still at a disadvantage.
We must launch a surprise attack on the han army as they mobilize to song-Yang's headquarters.
If we defeat the han army, song-Yang will lose his will to fight.
Get ready for a surprise attack.
Yes.
We're leaving immediately.
Be prepared.
Yes.
Chan-soo!
Mother...
What happened?
She was injured while attacking song-Yang.
Miss...
Get us a doctor immediately.
Hurry!
How is she?
She lost too much blood.
She's in a critical condition.
Yeon ta-bal, we only ended up making chief song-Yang angrier.
I'll talk to grand chief song-Yang and stop this war.
General ju-mong said he'll stop song-Yang.
He told us to wait without mobilizing the troops.
Let's watch how things turn out.
Since song-Yang lost all his provisions, we have hope.
I think we should trust and wait for the da-mul army.
Prepare the soldiers and the war supplies
so that we can provide them to the da-mul army at any time upon their request.
Yes.
Your majesty, this is song-j...
Come in.
Have you met priestess bi geum-sun?
Yes.
Like you've guessed, she told me that your illness is a sign of disaster.
You mean there's no way of recovery?
Priestess bi geum-sun has given me this sacred water.
She told me to offer a heavenly rite and cleanse your body with this sacred water.
Your majesty...
The Mark of disaster that hung on your body has disappeared.
Did priestess bi geum-sun say anything else?
Your majesty, she told me that the da-mul bow,
the sacred treasure of buyeo, has found its master.
Master?
Who's the master of the da-mul bow?
She told me that he will restore the old joseon land and build a new nation.
She said that you already know who he is.
We must finish everything before the enemies get here!
Hurry!
Hey, hide them well.
Good.
General, we've buried all the smoke bombs.
Well done.
General, the han army is coming.
Get ready to attack in your positions.
Yes.
Wait until the enemy comes close enough to shoot.
Shoot!
Attack!
Retreat!
Are we all set?
We can leave anytime you order us to.
We're going to leave as soon as the han reinforcements get here.
Grand chief! We're in trouble!
What's the matter?
The han reinforcements have been wiped out by the enemy's surprise attack.
Wiped out?
Are you saying the gyehru army has attacked them?
No, they've been attacked by ju-mong's da-mul army.
What?
Hurray for the da-mul army!
Hurray!
General, the da-mul army has saved gyehru.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
The da-mul army and gyehru are now like one body.
How's chief so seo-no?
She's still unconscious.
Chief...
The da-mul army has returned after defeating the han reinforcements.
General ju-mong is here.
Wake up.
What were you doing while ju-mong joined forces with gyehru?!
Forgive me.
I was too busy thinking about how to attack gyehru...
Don't give me any excuses!
Your idleness has killed two thousand of my men without a chance to fight!
What are you going to do about this?!
I don't know what to say.
Governor.
Please give me another chance.
If you give me more reinforcements and provisions,
I'll defeat gyehru and the da-mul army this time and offer ju-mong's head to you.
How much support do you need?
I've already sacrificed too much.
You're on your own now.
Demand more war supplies from the chiefs of jol-bon!
I demand reparations for my reinforcement.
If you don't... I'll attack jol-bon.
Did you look into it?
Only the old, the children and a few of the da-mul army to guard them are left.
The main body and the refugees have all left the hideout.
Even the refugees?
That means they must've moved the headquarters.
I think so.
What should we do?
Kill everyone who is left and burn down the hideout.
Your highness!
Only the old and the children are left.
They, too, are the enemies of buyeo.
The old labor for the da-mul army and the children will grow up and join them.
Get rid of them all!
Your highness...
You wretch!
Stop bickering!
Let's go!
Is everyone here?
Yes!
Let's go!
Kill them all!
Your majesty, she told me that the da-mul bow,
the sacred treasure of buyeo, has found its master.
Master?
Who's the master of the da-mul bow?
She told me that he will restore the old joseon land and build a new nation.
She said that you already know who he is.
Song-ju, are you there?
You'll find a wooden crate with records of the old joseon in the library.
Bring them to me.
Yes.
Your highness! We're in trouble?
Trouble?
His majesty wants to see the old joseon records that you've given to master chun!
What?
Why does he suddenly want the old joseon records that have been collecting dust?
How should I know?
Find master chun immediately and bring back the records that I've given him.
Yes.
What happened?
Master chun has already left buyeo.
What?
Just tell him that you don't know anything.
Your highness, my job is to guard and manage the library.
How can I tell him that I don't know?
You wretch!
Just do as I say!
If you bring my name up, I'll kill you as well as your entire family!
Understand?
Your majesty.
I've looked all over the library,
but I couldn't find any records of the old joseon.
What happened?
It's been a few decades, but I remember seeing the old joseon records in there.
Where did they go?
Forgive me for saying this,
but I've only been in charge of the library for a little over ten years.
I didn't even know we had such records.
Did ju-mong visited the library when he was in the buyeo palace?
Prince ju-mong has read all the records in the library.
I see.
You're dismissed.
Yes, your majesty.
What happened?
Ju-mong didn't leave his hideout empty.
He moved his headquarters.
Moved his headquarters?
To where?
I don't know yet.
Your majesty, this is the prime minister.
Come in.
What's the matter?
Your majesty, ju-mong's da-mul army has joined forces with gyehru.
Ju-mong's da-mul army has annihilated the han reinforcements
that have been sent to song-Yang's headquarters.
Summon the officers for a meeting immediately.
Yes, your majesty.
Your majesty, we should be concerned that ju-mong's da-mul army has moved to gyehru.
Everyone knows that yeon ta-bal and so seo-no of gyehru are extremely wealthy.
Ju-mong is already armed with steel weapons.
If he gains the wealth of gyehru as well, the da-mul army will be fearless.
Not only the da-mul army will become a great army,
the power of jol-bon will shift from song-Yang to so seo-no.
That means ju-mong will unify jol-bon and build a new nation.
That means he'll build a nation right next to buyeo.
That'll be a huge threat to buyeo.
Yes!
If ju-mong builds a nation, the han will oppress buyeo even more.
Your majesty, we must get rid of ju-mong before he settles down.
Help song-Yang attack gyehru.
But we can't go to war in our financial situation.
Yes, how are we going to have a war when the people are starving?
Your majesty, that'll be too much to handle.
General heuk-chi.
Yes, your majesty.
Find out the size of the da-mul army that have joined with gyehru,
and report it to me.
Yes, your majesty.
Your highness...
What's the matter?
General ju-mong has left mt. Bon-gye to join gyehru.
Didn't you say that mt. Bon-gye is the best hideout?
If they've left mt. Bon-gye, doesn't that mean they're in trouble?
Establishing a nation centered on mt. Bon-gye has its limits.
Although the da-mul army took over many tribes and small nations,
they were scattered.
It's hard to centralize the power.
Since so seo-no is very wealthy, she'll be a great support to ju-mong.
I see.
Mother, when are we going to leave the buyeo palace?
Wait.
Your highness.
What's the matter?
I'm disturbed that prince ju-mong has gone to gyehru.
What are you talking about?
Prince ju-mong and chief so seo-no were very close.
I heard that chief so seo-no's husband has recently passed away.
If she meets the prince as a single woman...
Are you worried that he might forget about me?
Yes.
It's been over three years since you've last seen him.
It's been over three years,
but I still vividly remember his face as if we said goodbye yesterday.
He's still vivid in my heart.
What's there to worry about?
Do you like our new home?
We still have a lot of issues to take care of.
We must first attack song-Yang to unify jol-bon.
Are you going to go to war with biryu?
I have no choice if I want to make song-Yang surrender.
Biryu is also a tribe that you must take under your wings.
It'll be even better if you can make them surrender without bloodshed.
Is there a way?
The three-legged bird can fly thousands of miles.
Since your wings are just as wide, you won't have any trouble taking them in.
General!
The da-mul army has arrived from mt. Bon-gye.
General!
What happened?
When the last group was about to leave the hideout,
prince dae-so's buyeo army attacked and massacred whoever's left.
Only the old, the women and the children were left.
He massacred them?
Yes, he even killed the children who begged him not to kill them.
General, send me to buyeo.
I'll avenge the refugees' deaths.
General, send us to buyeo.
Yes, we'll infiltrate the buyeo palace and kill dae-so.
Take the wounded men and treat them.
Yes.
General.
The only way to make sure the refugees' deaths are not in vain is
to establish a new nation as fast as we can.
Let your anger motivate you.
General! So seo-no has regained consciousness.
What happened?
What about song-Yang and the han reinforcements?
Don't worry.
Everything turned out the way you wanted.
General ju-mong and his da-mul army annihilated the han reinforcements.
We'll soon defeat song-Yang.
You should get well soon.
Lie down.
I'm glad you regained consciousness.
I don't know how I can pay you back for your kindness.
Kindness?
Not at all.
Please get well soon.
We have a lot of work to do together.
Welcome, master chun.
I heard that the da-mul army annihilated the han reinforcements.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Come inside.
Yes.
These are the old joseon records I got from buyeo.
The old joseon's history will be continued through the da-mul army.
Thank you, master chun.
Have you met my mother?
Yes, I met her myself to deliver your letter.
How is she doing?
The royal guards were keeping her chamber under surveillance,
but both lady yoo-hwa and lady ye soya seemed to be doing well.
I don't think Yang-jeong will help us anymore.
We have to attack gyehru with our forces alone.
As you know, we lost all our provisions because of the enemy's surprise attack.
I want each tribe to supply us with more provisions.
Grand chief.
We barely came up with the provisions and war supplies we gave you last time.
We don't have any food to give out during this famine!
He's right.
After giving you the provisions, my tribesmen barely have enough to eat.
What's wrong with you guys?!
The wealth and the food we need are in gyehru!
Our food problems will be solved once we subjugate gyehru.
Each tribe must do whatever it can to get the provisions.
If not, I'll attack whichever tribe that disobeys me before I attack gyehru!
You have raised a very fine daughter.
Thank you for your compliment.
She still has a lot more to learn.
I heard you were looking for me, mother.
Sit down.
This is the tax officer's daughter.
My name is ga-hee.
I already talked to the tax officer.
We've waited a long time, but we can't expect any heir from sul-LAN anymore.
We agreed to make the tax officer's daughter your concubine.
Mother...
Just do as I say.
You will be the next king of buyeo.
There will be disruption in the palace if you don't have an heir.
I understand.
But buyeo is in the middle of a crisis right now.
I'll marry her after we get through this crisis.
Yes, of course.
You're right.
Your highness.
I heard that you've met the tax officer's daughter.
If you're hesitating because of me, you don't have to.
I'm sorry.
My mother was concerned there might be disruption because I don't have an heir.
I couldn't say no to her.
I'm sorry.
Your highness. Are you okay?
What can I do?
I'm the one who couldn't get pregnant.
The humiliation I've suffered today will only make me stronger.
When I become the queen, buyeo will pay the price for the anguish in my heart.
Just wait and see.
I've thought this through many times.
Although buyeo is suffering from famine, that will be over someday.
But if ju-mong's da-mul army builds a new nation, buyeo will perish.
We'll attack the da-mul army and gyehru before that happens.
That's a very wise decision, your majesty.
But we don't even have the provisions...
There's a way.
Song-Yang is having trouble after losing the han's reinforcements.
I'll demand provisions and food for the buyeo army and people in exchange for sending reinforcements.
Your majesty, that's a great idea.
General heuk-chi!
Yes, your majesty.
Summon two thousand veteran troops.
I will carry out your order.
Your majesty, please let me lead the troop.
Granted.
General, this is so seo-no.
Come in.
Have a seat.
Is it okay for you to move around like this?
Yes, I can move around.
What are these bamboo Poles for?
They're records of the old joseon.
I thought those records were all lost.
Where did you get them?
This is a map of the old joseon's land.
They reached beyond the song-hua river to the north, mount Ali to the south
and the liao river and ok-jeo to the east and the west.
I've heard that the old joseon had a lot of land,
but I didn't know it was a great empire like this.
According to these records, the old joseon's history is great, as well.
Their people considered themselves as chosen by the heavens.
The late tangun reigned in peace even
while he fought against many foreign invaders.
Now that the da-mul army and gyehru are one,
we will unify the scattered nations and tribes to regain this great empire's land and its glory.
Miss, that's why I came to gyehru.
You must be tired.
I brought you food. Have some.
I feel bad for standing watch like this...
I brought this in good faith.
Have some.
But we're under prohibition.
You can throw away the wine if you don't want it.
How did it go?
We can go now.
- Mother... - Let's go.
What about the palace garrisons?
I already found an exit.
Lead the way.
Hurry.
What are you guys doing? Get up!
Commander!
I told you to keep them under close surveillance.
Do you want to die or something?
Forgive me.
What did you just say?
Even her highness ye soya's chamber is empty.
I think they've left the palace.
I found this in lady yoo-hwa's chamber.
Your majesty.
Forgive me for leaving like this.
I thought the only way I can repay you for the favor you've shown me all these years,
is to stay by your side until the day I die.
But your majesty...
You never know how a person's fate turns out.
The minute your majesty considered ye soya and Yuri as hostages,
I couldn't continue our bond.
Forgive me for leaving, for not staying by your side until the day I die.
Please kill me.
They couldn't have gone far.
Get all the royal guards to go after them.
Block all passages to gyehru and do whatever it takes to get them!
Lady yoo-hwa and her highness ye soya have left the palace.
Block all the passages to gyehru and go after them.
- Hurry! - Yes!
I know you're tired
but please bear with it
we'll see your father very soon
lady yuhwa and lady ye soya...
Have escaped from the palace
on their way to keru
they were discovered by buyeo soldiers
they were taken back to buyeo palace
torture him!
Don't stop until he speaks the truth!
Lock ye soya and Yuri...
In their chamber
your majesty, the foundation of buyeo is shaking
if we can't feed the hungry people
more will leave buyeo
I'll take full responsibility
open the granary, distribute the rations
I'm thinking of a plan...
To unite cholbon...
Without mobilising the soldiers
