Hwa Joong Jae Wang (The king is among Hwarang)
- There is the king? - Move!
Episode 12
Hwa Joong Jae Wang. (The king is among Hwarang)
If this is s joke, I'll let it go once. However,
if this was done with a motive,
I will never forgive it next time.
Do you understand?
Yes sir.
Now, there's nothing to see here, go back. Hurry!
Let's go.
I...
I think I saw the king.
I've been looking for you for a while.
You caught me.
I was trying to escape to a place where no one would find me.
It is nothing but a paper scroll hung on the wall. Nobody will believe it.
I had imagined this kind of situations many times
It's less of an issue than I thought it would be.
Is it because you are with me?
No matter what, I will not reveal your majesty.
- So stay assured. - I'm relieved.
-No one will know. Who would even imagine that there would be a king here- - It's okay.
If it is known that I am the king one of two things will happen.
I wll die in the hands of assassins,
or become king.
Die or become king.
I've thought of them both every day, over and over.
Now that I am facing that situation, I am worried more about what to do
if people ask me to be king from tomorrow rather than that I might get killed.
That seems to be more clueless.
Is it not funny?
The king is scared to become king.
Hwa Joong Jae Wang. There is a king among Hwarang.
-Is it true? -Why?
You didn't get any tip from your informant?
Hey, does that make sense?
-Even Poon Wol Joo, said it was a joke. -What doesn't make sense?
Anyway the king who can't appear in front of us,
-could be here. -So, who's the king?
Ji Dwi or
Seon Woo, could it be one of the two?
Why do you keep on eating here? Go to your 'room'.
We all grew up in the capital together.
We saw each other grow up.
- But, those two have not. - Stop talking nonsense.
Ji Dwi is Poon Wol Joo's nephew and Seon Woo is Ahn Ji Gong's son.
That's true.
No. I think what Han Seong's saying isn't wrong.
It's true that we don't know about the two of them. If the king is among those two,
I think I might know who it is.
Is Ji Dwi truely your nephew? Can you prove it? Where is his family,
Why did he end up wondering around all alone?
If you can prove even a single thing about him, I will believe you.
Which king can look up from the bottom?
Don't you think the hidden king may be able to do that?
You seem to have a big expectation towards the faceless king.
Are you having the same thoughts about the King?
Isn't that why you are objecting to the regency?
Dragging down the owner of that place in an uproar.
Queen Dowager
Queen Dowager.
The King is among Hwarang.
He is the bastard that killed Mak Moon.
King
Who are you?
Come quickly.
-No way! That's nonsense. -I am telling you the truth.
-Who?- Hey! Hey! Hey!
-What?-I told you so!
Who?
Seon Woo is the King?
It looks like I was not the only one to see that symbol of the king.
Is it true that the mark of Dog-Bird's bracelet is the same as the shape on the scrolled paper hung on the wall before?
If Dog-Bird is the King, it is fortunate for you.
-What are you talking about?-What happened between you and him before.
You got hit by the king, not by a half-Cheonin.
-Doesn't it make you feel better? -Aren't you going to shut up before you get beaten up?
Okay. Okay.
Hey. Let's go. Let's go.
It seems that kids have so much interest in you all of a sudden. Am I only one to think like that?
I became interested in them, too. I have to find someone.
Well, Doctor Ar Ro wouldn't have a clue, either.
Because she hasn't lived with her brother from birth to now.
He showed up from nowhere out of the blue to be her brother.
How can she know if he is her real brother or not?
You got it wrong. I told you my brother is not the king.
How are you so sure about that?
That's because...
Look. You can't convince me.
Gosh,
Seon Woo is definitely not...
Anyway, anyway he is not the king.
Whoa, you screamed.
He is not the King for real. What should I do?
He is not!
The people in the Seon Moon are saying that you're my brother.
The mark... is it on a different part of the arm?
Are you Jin Heung?
Don't lie.
Are you the one who shot the arrow?
I said, are you the one who shot an arrow at Ah Ro on the hunting grounds?
I was the person hunting for deer.
I'm not interested in who you are and who you think of me as.
But if you ever hurt her again,
then you will really truly know who I am.
Just exactly who said "There is a king among the Hwarang"?
Someone who definitely knows about the King's symbol
because the scroll had the same symbol of the King.
The symbol is known only to the royal family and a handful of generals who are guarding the border.
Who dared to find out about it?
This might be beneficial for the King.
Is it beneficial?
What did I say? Because we had been standing by idly and doing nothing.
That is why the Nambuyeo is provoking this country, isn't it? ("Nambuyeo" was another name for the Baekje kingdom. )
The damage is two times worse than the last time.
Even for the cattle and horses, we lost more than 100 of them.
-This is all... - That is because they are looking down on us.
I guess you want to blame it all on
me and the faceless king who won't step back from the regency.
Stop that at this point!
Isn't it because Her Highness is engaged in other matters right now?
What do you mean another matter? What matter is more urgent than this?
Is it true that King Jin Heung is in Hwarang?
If not, you should tell us that it's not true.
Is that the truth?
I'm saying this, but the King is not in this kingdom.
If there is anyone instigating dissension by spreading false rumors.
it will not be tolerated any longer.
Ahn Ji Gong's son, Seon Woo, is definitely Sam Maek Jong.
Who knows?
What do you mean? Didn't you see Ji So's facial expression?
She sure is something.
She picked a Hwarang herself and put him in there. Who would have thought of that?
What are you concerned about?
Everything fits together too well.
Since it was planned from the beginning...
Did you say that the crazy guy who stopped Ji So's marching was the son of Ahn Ji Gong?
And Ji So imprisoned that kid and Ahn Ji Gong in the palace.
That's why I'm saying she's scary.
Didn't she calculate every trickery?
Let's just wait and see. We'll figure it out.
What wrong with you guys? Having a king as roommates
Isn't that a good thing?
- Hey.- Sorry.
- Are you really the king?- That's too blatant to ask.
If you're not, then you can say you're not.
If you say you are the King, I won't believe it anyway.
When you don't want to believe it, why do you bother asking?
You must have something to say for yourself!
Don't do it.
Right. Our day-off is coming up.
You won't want to go home with a fail just because of something like this.
Is Dog-Bird really the King?
Hey! Why are you calling him Dog-Bird?
Hey, you should say King Jinheung!
King!
Who do you think they're looking at?
I think it's you.
Do I look that fine? To catch the attention of men?
You know how joke around when you usually don't.
Is your wound from the arrow okay?
That's a relief.
If there is a king among the Hwarang,
Who do you think it is?
If you had to pick out one of them, who do you think it is?
- Never mind.- But why are you looking for the King?
If you find the King, what are you going to do?
If you find the King,
what are you doing to do?
I'm going to kill him.
I said I'm going to kill him.
That rumor...it's not true.
I know.
I know that.
What is this? So...you can't see me a king?
No, it's not that.
Kidding. I wanted you to laugh.
But you are not laughing. ♬ I must be a fool♬
♬ I really didn't know then.♬
Just a moment. ♬ Everything impossible for me ♬
Just stay for a moment right here. ♬ You would make possible♬
♬ The instant my indiscreet heart faces you and♬
♬ time stops for you♬
♬ the place where you must be♬
♬ will be filled with my tears♬
It's been a while since we got a break. Should we go to the Okta store?
Why are you acting so close? You and I aren't that close.
Did I just get rejected? I feel hurt. Comfort me.
You go alone. I'm not in the mood to go there.
Did I just get rejected by two people at the same time?
Was it stuck on a poster at Seonmoon?
- Why are you looking at me like that?- Isn't this all your doing?
How is that guy named Seon Woo?
How does he look to you? Does he look like a king?
Whether he's the King or not...bring me the answer.
Why should I?
Do I have to do such things?
I'm thinking of making you the king.
The king has to be gone in order for you to become king.
"I'm thinking of making you the king".
Why doesn't he appear?
He's definitely inside somewhere. ♬ When the path on which I fearlessly♬
♬ went out and searched for the small dream♬
♬ which was concealed in the flickering starlight♬
Excuse me! ♬ was more than I could bear♬
Ban Ryu, I was right in front of you, but I thought maybe you didn't see me.
♬ then another world which I came to know♬
What are you doing here? ♬ and even a shard ♬
No. Nothing. ♬ of my crushed heart ♬
♬ became a light in your breath.♬
What's wrong?
What's the matter with you?
Did that jerk do something to you? ♬ I'm fine with you as the only one.♬
That bastard.I knew this would happen. Ban Ryu! Ban Ryu!
-Ban Ryu!- No, It's not like that. -Let go of me, won't you let go ♬ I will find the star.♬
Stop right there!
It hurts. It hurts. Oh, it hurts!
-Here too? -There hurts too.
That hurts. That's hurts.
That's strange.
It hurts...ah...
Ah, it hurts.
Ah! It hurts!
Oh! This won't do. I have no choice but to do acupuncture.
Acupuncture? I think it will be fine if I just rest.
If you leave it as it is, you will suffer from habitual twists. So,
Let's pull out all of the pain.
If you get poked 30 times with these needles for 10 days,
you will be healed perfectly.
There's not need for that...
And don't be too burdened because you're getting this for free.
I'm okay.
Why are you pretending to be sick all of a sudden?
Because I don't like to be compared to Dan Se while we are training together.
It would have been better if I was born as my brother and my brother as me.
Come out.
I don't want to leave.
Let's do sword training. I'll help you.
Hurry up.
Bye, Doctor Ar Ro.
Grab it.
That kind of swordsmanship can't do anything.
Do it again!
I'm not going to!
That's right. We should have been born switched.
Then, you could have rebuilt up our family back to its great shape.
As for me, I just like looking up the sky for stars and following a solar eclipse.
I am poor at dealing with a sword and archery while horse-riding. I am a shortcoming!
But what should I do?
Then what should I do? This is just who I am!
It's such a relief that it didn't go any deeper, and the wound is healing well.
Ar Ro has become a real doctor, hasn't she?
That day at the Seon Moon when you told me to protect Ar Ro...
How did you know that Ar Ro would get into a trouble?
Who did you hear that from?
Protect Ar Ro. That is all
I can tell you right now.
Mak Moon said
that he saw the King.
And the guy who wielded the sword had this symbol.
In the end, I kill him.
If this is the King's symbol, then the one who killed Mak Moon is
that faceless King.
So
What are you planning to do?
I'll have to kill him.
I'm going crazy.
I can't reveal that Ji Dwi is the King.
And I can't prove that Seon Woo isn't the King.
Why is this so hard?
The misunderstanding that Ahn Ji Gong's son is Sam Maek Jong...why is that a good thing to us?
If Ahn Ji Gong's son pretends to act as the King, subtitles ripped and synced by riri13
then wouldn't it keep His Majesty safe?
A fake king...
to pretend the real king?
But Ahn Ji Gong will not leave this situation alone.
Then we'll have to make him leave it alone.
Why did you come here?
If the doctor is busy, then isn't the patient supposed to come find him?
I risked to come here. Aren't you going to check up on me?
Do you remember?
The forest we ran through together. The smell of the grass.
That wind. When I was next to you,
I wasn't scared of anything.
Let me start acupuncture.
You can curse me. You can hate me.
Your daughter committed a sin against me and she deserves death, but I will spare her life.
So in exchange, your son must fulfill my favor.
If he doesn't do my favor,
I have no choice but to kill your daughter.
Didn't I say that Ji So would stop by?
What...should I do?
What will you do?
She killed my wife and son.
And she threatened to kill my daughter...
That woman and her son...
I must kill them.
Why?
Why do you have to make me stay here even on my day-off? This is totally not cool!
I don't know if you know that
you're a tiring and bothersome person.
Is this all?
You know I really like Nooroongji (Scorched rice) and you only brought this much?
- Aren't you even worried?- About what?
Just think for a second!
If there is a rumor that the King is in the Sun Moon,
then will this place be safe?
Anyway, I think I should move.
even If an assassin is coming, it's too dangerous.
This person! Is that something Poon Wol Joo should say?
If they live, you live and if they die then you die!
Hey. Why are you yelling so much?
Or you can be Poon Wol Joo.
Don't eat this!
I said I like it.
Today is your break so why are you here alone and not outside.
Just because I can't be bothered.
There's no benefit for going outside.
I was curious about something from the beginning.
Why is your name Ji Dwi?
It's nothing.
Even if it's nothing, please explain.
Unmercifully stab someone in the back.
That's why I'm Ji Dwi.
You don't know anyone in the Capital. You don't have anyone related to you.
Your name is an alias and your family is a mess.
And you will unmercifully stab the queen dowager in the back.
Considering everything, you have neither kith nor kin.
And your sister is in the Seon Moon.
And your mother is in the palace.
Isn't that so, Your Majesty?
Did you just tell me that you will meet my son?
I've heard that among the Hwarang, your son's swordsmanship is daring and skilled.
That is too strong a compliment.
I have something special to ask from your son.
When you meet the Queen Dowager,
you can never lift your head up high or make eye contact.
You can't go to close,
and whatever she says,
respond only with,
"Yes, I will". Got it?
Yes.
Sending you there alone...
I don't know why I feel so uneasy.
Thorn flowers? Those are thorn flowers.
- I will carry you.- What?
There ground is filled with thorn flowers and the pathway back is like that as well.
They are poisonous flowers, so if you get pricked, it will be hard to walk.
I will go with my own feet.
Your Majesty, are you alright? These shoes...
You must not wear shoes.
When hunting you will often encounter a thorny bush.
Do not walk in that area.
I apologize for having the nerve to make physical contact.
If you give me a punishment, I will accept it gladly.
Are you Yi Chan's son?
Yes. My name is Soo Ho.
Do you know Seon Woo?
There is a king among them.
It seems I've sprained my foot.
- This way...- No, I would like to do it in my location.
I will leave knowing that you will come.
Wow, she really doesn't have a conscience.
To someone she shot an arrow at, she has a sprain?
I ought to break her...
This way.
If you heat them up for a bit, I think they will feel better.
What is this? Is she telling me to wash her feet?
That's right. That's what I'm telling you to do.
Please order your maid to do these things.
They must have told you that you are my designated doctor.
And you, Princess, shot that designated doctor.
And my brother got shot.
I heard you deserve to die because you committed a sin towards the Queen Dowager.
Then you should have been shot and killed.
What did you just say?
If you didn't die, the next day is the same.
You must do your part to fulfill your duty.
Washing my feet, heating them and healing them
are something a half-blood like you should do.
What are you doing?
For the sake of your brother, I was going to keep it in, but I can't do it anymore.
There are these things called situations.
No matter how superior your status is, it's never right to thoughtlessly kill people.
When you are a princess? Let alone to earn the subjects' praise,
does it make sense that you shot an arrow at a person?
Even though I am a doctor, I cannot treat a person like you!
So you know my brother?
This is unjust. You know my brother, but
I don't know who my brother is.
This is unjust.
So tell me who my brother is.
I don't know.
But even if I did know, I wouldn't tell you.
We're seeing each other like this again. Nangdoo to nangdoo.
Even though we are both Nangdoo, you don't think we're on the same level, do you?
A half-breed punk with nothing to show off.
Hey Pa Oh.
- Are you going somewhere? - Yes, I have to do something there.
It's okay if I don't.
Are you feeding the horses?
This is Gang Seong.
Even though he is the same Nangdoo, he is two years younger than us.
But we keep crossing paths.
And what are you? An old rag like you.
What is this? Why are you doing this?
Call me hyung from now on.
I can't let you go any more.
I'm true bone!
This dog-bone bastard...
I'm leaving, friend.
I saw it. The day when you broke the instruments.
I'm not interested in what you do here or who you are doing it for.
I will live my life and you will live yours. That's it.
I'm just asking for one thing.
Don't mess with me.
Hold on tight.
There are doors that people like you shouldn't open.
I think you are in front of that door.
When did you learn to use the sword? Or are you just winging it as you go?
Should I tell you a secret?
From the time I was born until now, I haven't had a single friend.
If you know how big of a confession this is, you will be shocked later!
What's with you? Do you have something to say?
We call people like you 'a dog who has to take a sh*t'.
- What?- I called you a dog who has to take a sh*t, why?
What is this. You've been frozen all day and then you react to poop?
Do you like poop because you're Dog-Bird?
Stop it.
Dog-Bird said he likes it~
- Be quiet!- He likes poop~
- What about Han Sung?- He's not in our room.
From now on he's in our room. I heard he got chased out from his other room.
Too bad, already. ♬ became a light in your breath.♬
♬ became a light in your breath.♬
♬ I'm fine with you as the only one.♬
♬ I will find the star.♬
♬ Until I reach the dream suspended high in the sky.♬
Because you are afraid of sparring, are you going to avoid it?
The problem is not sparring. When is sparring ever so much dangerous?
Then, stop this and come on out.
Seok Hyeon Je's grandson must appear before the queen dowager and the royal council.
I don't want to hear that you ran out of there head first.
Is it important to listen to what others say? I don't want to fight!
And doing those things is dangerous.
Are you going to disappoint Grandfather?
You, it's not you who are the one.
The main line descent. The main line descent. Stop making noise about the guy's descent.
Was I born into this family because I wanted to be?
Why is everyone placing their burdens on me? Why me?! Why!
Then you should have been born as a half bone.
If you were only going to live like this,
then why do you get to have everything?!
- Hyung! - If you have everything, then make yourself to deserve everything. Prove it one way or another.
Come out.
If you found the king, what are you going to do?
If you find the king,
what are you going to do?
I'm going to kill him.
I said, I'm going to kill him.
From the time I was born until now, I haven't had a single friend.
And right now, you are my only friend.
Well, I don't remember owing a debt to anyone.
You'll be surprised later when you realize how big my confession was to you.
In this world, there are doors that must never be opened by people like you.
And it seems you are right in front of one of those forbidden doors.
Then you can give it to me. It's my hobby to collect these things.
Sell it to me. I'll give you whatever you ask for.
Well, that's a pity. It's perfectly my style.
Must it be the sight of blood that you want?
Someone who fears blood could not become a brave general.
However-
The dowager queen and the royal council have arrived.
Your Highness, surely while watching to the point of blood, won't this shake Hwarang violently?
I am grateful for summoning even old men like this to this Hwarang event.
I've heard the princess personally organized the sparring.
So the expectation is even greater.
It will be wonderful if the event is not counter to your expectations.
In today's final round of the sparring which faces life and death,
on the palanquin on the journey to the hell of sparring,
possibly to become first the Hwarang also
will cause countless injuries and death.
The fight of life and death.
Ah, stop talking. I'm getting so confused.
Is that a problem if I'm making a little noise? But someone now is going back and forth.
By the way, if someone's head gets chopped up,
if you hurry and stitch it back to their body, can they still live?
I have cut heads before, but never stitched them together.
Put your neck right here so I can cut it and try to sew it back on.
Why are you like this? I'm only saying this so you can be meticulous.
Isn't the talk that this time the sparring will be bloody
and cutthroat sparring?
Right. I'm worried.
Why are they doing this? Which bastard was crazy enough to-
Maybe it's not "bastard" but a "bitch?"
You end up being like this in the end.
Beg to save your life.
Cry out for help holding your mother's hand.
Then, I will rescue you from this.
If there is a sword aiming for me, I will not avoid it.
I will face it to win and then climb onto the throne majestically.
Start the sparring.
You shouldn't disappoint Yeong Sil this much.
Ban Ryu, you were wrong.
This sparring is supposed to put their training into practice. How can they be so slack like this?
Because they know better things than committing meaningless killing.
Stop!
Princess, in any case I think the sparring between the Hwarang
hasn't got much to see.
So could I propose a small suggestion?
Please go ahead.
I propose to have a sparring between my skilled bodyguard and one Hwarang who can represent whole Hwarang.
Come out.
What do you think?
Good.
As I expected, Princess is as broad-minded as a general.
Since you were so generous to accept my proposal
Could I pick out one of the Hwarang representating Seonmoon?
Please do so.
I heard that Seon Woo is good at martial arts.
Seon Woo, come forward.
I will do it. Your aren't capable enough.
I'm fine.
He can't, his body hasn't even recovered fully yet...
How long has it been since he took the arrow...
Princess, give them your assurance that
even if one of the two loses his life, regardless of his status,
you won't hold anyone responsible.
I will do so.
I will do so in your honor.
In the honor of the Hwarang, I will do so too.
It's not committing a disloyalty against King Jin Heung with poor sense, is it?
Of course it is disloyal. What would be more disloyal than making the King's Hwarang endure this?
Shouldn't something countlessly heated up and pounded become stronger?
It's not disloyalty. I guess it is tempering. Anyway, aren't they all your Hwarang?
However much you try to do that, Jin Heung is not here.
We'll see...
That's a relief. As the widely discussed rumors say
I was worried that Seon Woo was possibly King Jin Heung...
It is until the death! It is still not finished.
Stop!
Continue.
And now I've got the answer I wanted...
Are you okay?
Are you worried?
Yes.
Why would you?
If you ask why, obviously...
What are you doing?
Is it you?
Are you... the king?
♫ Don't leave me. Don't leave me. ♫
♫ You who are turning away turn your feet toward me ♫
♫ I request and want you, you are everything in my life ♫8
If it gets worse, wouldn't having a war be better?
I have the confidence that I will win.
What will you do? Is it warfare? Or is it carrot and stick?
What exactly did I do wrong? Why are you trying not to look at me?
Why have you become so narrow-minded?
Will you ever go to Nabooyeo?
Why am I going there?
I could teach you the sword.
If I learn the sword,
do you know who I'll kill?
I think you keep on getting in danger because of me, so I'm angry at myself.
The king that the country wants is the true king.
Even if I become king, do you think it would be okay?
You came, in front of me.
As you go forth, you could come across things you can't anticipate.
Whenever that happens, remember, you are Hwarang!
You are Silla's pride. Do you know that?
Yes!
♫ Until the world ends ♫
Just I moment. I'll be like this just for a moment.
♫ It’s gonna be you ♫
Your Majesty.
♫ I can‘t let go ♫
♫ I am dedicated to do my very best to take care of you ♫
♫ I will turn the crisis now into an opportunity ♫
Wouldn't it be one out of both Ji Dwi and Seon Woo?
♫ You can't stop me from making you my best choice ♫
With the honor of the Hwarang, I will do so.
♫ Until the end of the world ♫
♫ It’s gonna be you ♫
You are... You are the king.
