Are you… 22:46.887 --> 22:48.889 She lives in a residence that's private. 22:49.473 --> 22:51.141 Why is she in the palace wandering? 22:54.728 --> 22:55.937 Who was that? 22:56.021 --> 22:57.147 You know each other? 22:57.230 --> 22:59.357 She is my grandmother. 22:59.441 --> 23:01.318 The birth mother of His Majesty. 23:06.781 --> 23:08.742 Is that why relations between the Queen Dowager 23:08.825 --> 23:09.910 and the King are strained? 23:10.619 --> 23:11.870 They're not blood-related? 23:14.164 --> 23:15.207 Or rather, 23:16.291 --> 23:18.543 because the King was the child of a concubine. 23:21.922 --> 23:23.298 Thirty years ago, 23:24.299 --> 23:29.012 all of His Majesty's brothers died for reasons that were never made clear. 23:31.139 --> 23:33.725 He alone survived among the late King's sons 23:33.808 --> 23:35.060 and was named Crown Prince, 23:35.143 --> 23:37.312 but because the lowborn blood of a court lady 23:37.395 --> 23:39.189 was said to run in his veins, 23:39.272 --> 23:42.067 he was never fully acknowledged as the Crown Prince. 23:42.567 --> 23:45.403 Not even now, after he ascended to the throne. 23:57.666 --> 23:59.209 Your Majesty, 23:59.292 --> 24:01.586 for the sake of this country and its people, 24:01.670 --> 24:04.297 a new Crown Prince must be appointed. 24:04.381 --> 24:05.966 This, I am aware of. 24:06.466 --> 24:10.929 However, Prince Yeongan's health has yet to fully recover. 24:11.012 --> 24:14.140 That is precisely why we are mentioning this, Your Majesty. 24:14.224 --> 24:16.142 It is imperative that measures be taken. 24:17.936 --> 24:19.688 What kind of measures? 24:19.771 --> 24:22.607 You must move forth and select one of the royal kin 24:22.691 --> 24:25.360 and name him your new Crown Prince, Your Majesty. 24:26.236 --> 24:28.238 Grant your royal assent. 24:28.905 --> 24:31.408 Grant your royal assent. 24:34.202 --> 24:37.330 Do all of you believe the same thing? 24:39.124 --> 24:40.625 That death will soon take my son? 24:40.709 --> 24:42.210 Uh… 24:42.294 --> 24:44.754 How could we harbor such irreverence? 24:44.838 --> 24:46.756 That is not what we imply or intend, Your Majesty. 24:46.840 --> 24:48.258 That is not what you imply?! 24:50.468 --> 24:52.387 Then whose intention is it? 24:55.932 --> 24:58.101 Is it the Queen Dowager's intention? 25:01.479 --> 25:04.316 I am deeply disappointed in you. 25:05.567 --> 25:08.320 I went above and beyond to get you in here, 25:08.403 --> 25:12.407 yet you failed to command a single spirit and, instead, restored his health. 25:13.408 --> 25:16.036 I did not drive away the spirit. 25:17.287 --> 25:20.165 I only sought to draw the spirit toward the Prince. 25:20.248 --> 25:23.209 Then was there another who drove the spirit away? 25:23.293 --> 25:26.046 The feng shui master the King brought in is rather suspicious. 25:26.129 --> 25:29.174 The King? He brought in a master of feng shui? 25:37.682 --> 25:40.143 I want you to keep him under close watch. 25:40.226 --> 25:43.772 If he truly is the one helping to destroy spirits… 25:46.107 --> 25:47.651 he will die at our hands. 25:48.276 --> 25:50.362 The more spirits run rampant within the palace, 25:50.445 --> 25:52.405 the further the King is driven into a corner. 25:52.989 --> 25:54.616 And that serves me well. 25:56.159 --> 25:58.953 Prince Iksang was at the Queen Dowager's residence? 26:02.749 --> 26:05.543 My, that is truly impressive. 26:13.843 --> 26:18.223 So she plans to alter the royal bloodline after all? 26:19.766 --> 26:23.812 She intends to sever the curse that has endured for 30 years 26:24.437 --> 26:26.231 and begin anew. 26:28.858 --> 26:31.027 But it will not be so easy. 26:34.698 --> 26:37.784 And for someone who has been bound by sin, 26:38.326 --> 26:41.246 does she truly believe she can escape it? 27:14.028 --> 27:15.196 You all right? 27:16.489 --> 27:17.907 You okay? 27:17.991 --> 27:20.326 What's wrong with you? 27:24.289 --> 27:25.874 Sorry, who are you? 27:25.957 --> 27:28.460 Ji-yul, a sanggaksi serving in the Saenggwabang. 27:28.543 --> 27:31.129 I will be sharing this chamber with you starting today. 27:31.212 --> 27:33.089 Huh? That cannot be possible. 27:33.173 --> 27:34.007 There. 27:34.924 --> 27:38.928 Um… I was told I would have my own quarters. 27:39.012 --> 27:41.473 - I have never shared a chamber. - What's this? 27:41.556 --> 27:43.600 This must be rather uncomfortable for you, so-- 27:43.683 --> 27:44.976 Not at all. 27:45.477 --> 27:49.689 Before I entered the palace, I shared a room with nine of my family. 27:51.816 --> 27:52.734 Ah. 27:59.115 --> 28:01.201 What might all that fuss be about? 28:01.284 --> 28:04.078 What? Oh my. You haven't heard about it? 28:04.162 --> 28:06.790 A spirit was seen at the Queen Dowager's quarters. 28:06.873 --> 28:07.957 A spirit, really? 28:08.041 --> 28:11.711 Yes. Ever since I entered the palace, a lot of incidents have happened. 28:11.795 --> 28:13.755 I heard a spirit showed up at the Saenggwabang too. 28:13.838 --> 28:14.672 Hang on. 28:15.173 --> 28:17.634 Tell me all that you have heard about the spirits. 28:17.717 --> 28:20.678 Gosh, I'm so cold. 28:36.528 --> 28:38.571 Damn it! Jeez. 28:41.199 --> 28:42.033 What the… 28:42.700 --> 28:44.327 When did you get in here? 28:45.745 --> 28:47.622 Hey.

Huh? 28:56.923 --> 28:58.091 Why? 28:59.551 --> 29:02.303 Apparently, a salt storehouse spirit is in the Queen Dowager's quarters. 29:03.680 --> 29:04.722 You mean right now? 29:04.806 --> 29:07.267 We must go. We need to investigate immediately. 29:07.934 --> 29:10.395 Sure. I cannot wait to get out of here. 29:11.020 --> 29:12.272 What? 29:35.879 --> 29:36.880 What is it? 29:38.464 --> 29:39.883 Do you hear something? 29:41.342 --> 29:43.428 I can't make it out. It's too subtle for me to hear. 29:43.511 --> 29:45.096 Too faint to understand. 29:46.389 --> 29:47.432 Hmm. 29:51.477 --> 29:53.521 I should step inside to hear better. 30:04.157 --> 30:05.950 Do you really have to go in alone? 30:11.623 --> 30:12.624 I will be fine. 30:13.124 --> 30:15.418 Okay, then I will wait out here for you. 31:11.182 --> 31:12.809 Say what you need to say. 31:13.768 --> 31:16.062 Tell me what happened. Please say it. 31:42.213 --> 31:45.800 The serpent's shed skin killed the dragon's child. 31:47.635 --> 31:51.222 "The serpent's shed skin killed the dragon's child." 31:51.848 --> 31:54.267 Tell me who wrote these words. 31:55.351 --> 31:59.063 The dragon's child refers to the late Crown Prince. 31:59.897 --> 32:02.900 Her Majesty, the Queen, was born in the Year of the Snake. 32:02.984 --> 32:06.154 So, that implies that the Crown Prince died 32:06.237 --> 32:07.989 because of Her Majesty. 32:08.072 --> 32:12.577 It seems one of you wenches has insulted Her Majesty's house. 32:14.370 --> 32:16.664 You will starve in here until you confess. 32:16.748 --> 32:19.375 Not even a drop of water will be given. 33:01.584 --> 33:03.669 They burned to death whilst in there? 33:07.632 --> 33:10.718 Gather the court ladies' bones in jars and bury the lot. 33:11.427 --> 33:15.014 Their vengeful spirits must be sealed so they cannot harm the royal house. 33:15.098 --> 33:16.099 Yes, Your Majesty. 33:34.867 --> 33:37.036 Have you had the chance yet 33:37.120 --> 33:40.081 to look into who broke the sealed jars? 33:41.165 --> 33:42.750 I have looked into it, 33:43.251 --> 33:46.754 but I could not find the person who entered the salt storehouse. 33:49.048 --> 33:51.300 This must have been done by someone 33:51.884 --> 33:54.262 who knows exactly what these jars are. 33:55.429 --> 33:58.641 But are we not the only ones in the palace who know of those jars? 34:00.184 --> 34:03.980 This must be an aimed attack against me, but who would do that? 34:06.858 --> 34:07.900 Yes. 34:08.985 --> 34:11.404 I know of a person who would do it. 34:11.904 --> 34:13.906 Who is it? 34:14.699 --> 34:18.828 I can see clearly how my fear of spirits momentarily clouded my sight. 34:18.911 --> 34:21.080 Why did I not see it coming sooner than this? 34:21.747 --> 34:24.834 All of this trouble began after I met with Prince Iksang. 34:24.917 --> 34:27.879 Prince Yeongan has overcome the crisis, Your Majesty. 34:27.962 --> 34:31.632 Therefore, I believe now is the time for you to appoint the Crown Prince. 34:31.716 --> 34:34.886 His Majesty saw straight through my heart. 34:34.969 --> 34:37.805 He is trying to stop me, no matter the cost. 34:37.889 --> 34:40.725 I know that he means to oppose me with wielding spirits. 34:40.808 --> 34:44.228 So if I'm right, it would seem the King wants me dead tonight! 34:48.149 --> 34:50.651 But I will not let that happen. 34:50.735 --> 34:54.071 I will not die at the hands of mere spirits. 34:54.572 --> 34:56.240 Night will soon fall. 34:56.324 --> 34:57.950 Court ladies are not to sleep tonight. 34:58.034 --> 35:01.579 They will all protect me until daylight hours come! 35:02.663 --> 35:05.625 So, for 30 years, the pond spirit 35:05.708 --> 35:08.461 has been killing the princes in the East Palace. 35:09.212 --> 35:12.340 And the court ladies wrote that the princes were dying 35:12.423 --> 35:14.091 because of the Queen Dowager? 35:14.175 --> 35:15.676 It was not the court ladies' doing. 35:16.344 --> 35:18.179 They were falsely accused and put to death. 35:19.680 --> 35:23.351 What is certain is that the pond spirit is connected to the Queen Dowager. 35:25.269 --> 35:26.646 Still, thanks to your ability, 35:26.729 --> 35:29.357 I was able to learn why the court ladies became won-gwi. 35:30.942 --> 35:32.610 I could not have done it alone. 35:33.778 --> 35:34.862 You did good work. 35:37.490 --> 35:38.658 You are the first person 35:39.700 --> 35:42.370 to say this strange ability of mine was helpful. 35:42.453 --> 35:43.663 Is that so? 35:43.746 --> 35:45.289 I assumed His Majesty sent you to me 35:45.373 --> 35:47.083 because your ability was a thing he valued. 35:47.166 --> 35:50.294 I must have proved to be of use in helping with spirits. 35:55.716 --> 35:57.718 Are you in bad standing with your father? 36:01.681 --> 36:03.474 Hold your wretched tongue. 36:03.557 --> 36:06.811 You must not tell me that you can hear such atrocious things. 36:06.894 --> 36:09.230 Not any child who bears my blood. 36:09.939 --> 36:12.400 Unless you wish to bring disgrace to our name. 36:14.277 --> 36:19.490 To hear such strange things would indeed be a disgrace for the royal house. 36:23.244 --> 36:24.120 Sounds good to me. 36:27.415 --> 36:28.833 What do you mean by that? 36:30.459 --> 36:33.879 It's just that since we both dislike the King, 36:33.963 --> 36:36.132 it makes it feel almost like we are on the same side. 36:39.260 --> 36:40.469 Even so, 36:42.138 --> 36:46.559 when I heard those voices yelling to be let out, I should've helped them. 36:48.060 --> 36:51.188 If only I had broken the jars that their souls were imprisoned in. 36:51.272 --> 36:54.025 What could a mere child have done to help them? 36:54.108 --> 36:56.819 Bearing such a strange gift would've been hard enough. 36:57.862 --> 37:00.072 Don't carry that pointless guilt with you. 37:05.328 --> 37:09.248 I, too, was feared and pointed at by others. 37:10.708 --> 37:13.085 You can simply ignore people like that. 37:17.506 --> 37:20.134 Just be mindful of them and live your life so you don't end up… 37:20.217 --> 37:22.470 …getting possessed like that. 37:29.518 --> 37:32.897 Now I understand why you're so unusual. 37:33.731 --> 37:34.565 Me? 37:35.941 --> 37:38.110 I'll make sure they are correctly buried in the ground. 37:38.194 --> 37:40.112 Whoa, whoa! Hey, hold on. Hold on. 37:40.196 --> 37:43.240 I will grind these court ladies' bones into powder. 37:44.283 --> 37:45.785 - What? - Hmm? 37:46.369 --> 37:47.912 Ground into powder? 37:48.871 --> 37:50.498 No, you must not! 37:51.123 --> 37:52.917 Are you trying to shame the dead once again? 37:53.000 --> 37:54.919 Oh, for crying out loud. 37:55.002 --> 37:57.505 It's a pain having to explain this every time. 37:57.588 --> 38:01.258 A won-gwi is a spirit that cannot just simply pass on to the afterlife 38:01.342 --> 38:03.260 because its resentment is weighing it down. 38:04.011 --> 38:06.889 So if you use things to help it remember who it once was, 38:06.972 --> 38:08.849 you can dissolve that resentment… 38:10.893 --> 38:12.770 and send it to the afterlife. 38:13.521 --> 38:16.148 But then their souls do not disappear, right? 38:16.232 --> 38:17.483 They are pitiful spirits. 38:17.566 --> 38:18.442 Hey. 38:18.526 --> 38:22.822 Pitiful or not, they are harming innocent people around the palace now. 38:22.905 --> 38:24.407 There's no time to explain. 38:24.490 --> 38:28.202 What do you mean "there's no time"? Are you saying that others will appear? 38:31.372 --> 38:34.417 They're probably already under the Queen Dowager's nose. 39:01.444 --> 39:03.112 Who is there? 39:04.155 --> 39:06.657 Bring me a candle at once. 39:31.515 --> 39:34.685 You will take this bone powder and go to the Buddhist temple 39:34.768 --> 39:36.604 where the Queen Dowager is. 39:38.022 --> 39:41.442 I will go into the World of Gwi and confront them. 39:44.778 --> 39:47.198 They will be with the Queen Dowager. 40:14.517 --> 40:16.352 I am very sorry. 40:47.591 --> 40:50.553 As you said, they are innocent won-gwi. 40:53.430 --> 40:57.059 To set them free, we must get rid of the mass of resentment. 40:59.061 --> 41:01.605 You must begin when I ring the bell. 42:57.638 --> 42:59.848 So this is the only way in the end? 43:03.852 --> 43:05.729 I am as good as dead. 43:32.965 --> 43:36.719 Hurry, Saeng-gang!
