Father! No!
No! Please save me!
When 15 minutes pass, I will behead them.
Save us!
So, before then, Silla's king should declare his kinghood.
Episode 15
Fifteen minutes haven't passed yet.
Was it too early?
Now, you've wasted half of the 15 minutes.
I am...
the King.
I am...
Silla's King!
Are you really Silla's King?
- How can I trust you?- The one who made me step forward is you.
If you weren't going to believe me, you shouldn't have searched in the first place.
Oh wow, you are bold.
We can't just leave him like that. He might really die.
Do you really believe that guy's really the King?
Yeah, I do. Why don't you?
Let's just say he's the King. So, what can we do for him?
Neither he nor we can do anything.
We have to at least break the door down and fight together!
The Hwarang sent to prevent a war attacked South Buyeo first.
Is this what you want to hear? Do you want to be the cause of a war?!
What good comes out of us doing this to each other?
I am...Silla's King!
I think that winning or losing in a war is luck.
If you have good luck, you win. If your luck is bad, you lose.
But these days, because I have good luck,
someone who was a citizen of Silla gave me a substantial amount of gold
and told me that a king was among the Hwarang.
Although I didn't know he would really come forward,
by any chance, is it because of that girl?
That pretty girl who was among the captured.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Whatever the reason, forget it. It doesn't matter to me whether you're the King or not.
Whether you're the King or not, I'm going to make you into one.
Also, I will make you beg at my feet to save your life.
If you're a Crown Prince, it'd be nice if you acted like one.
Taking a delegation without any troops hostage, saying that you'll take over Silla,
who would say that's becoming of a Crown Prince? South Buyeo's King.
So, your father also won't be telling you ,"Good job."
What do you know about His Majesty to be running your mouth like that?
I'll give you a chance. A chance to save face as the future king of South Buyeo.
Who is giving whom a chance?
You may have already heard, but there's no one in Silla who knows the King's face.
If the Queen Dowager says I'm not the King, that's the end of it.
You'll probably end up being left as the lowlife who slaughtered the unarmed envoys, who accompanied the Princess.
So, I'm giving you a chance. A fair and square chance for Silla's King and
South Buyeo's Crown Prince to go head to head.
I grew up amidst a fierce war.
Unlike you, I didn't live in hiding.
As to whose life was more intense, we'll find out when we measure it.
I am... Silla's King!
That can't be.
He can't be my brother.
Still, seeing that he voluntarily came forward in a situation where his life was at stake, wouldn't he be His Majesty?
He put his life on the line?
But, why do I feel that he isn't?
I'm the wife of the man who was beheaded earlier.
Everyone is afraid because they think they'll be next.
You're a citizen of Silla. Why did you come all the way to South Buyeo?
For people like me, what does it matter which nation I am a subject of?
Eating and surviving is more frightening.
Don't worry too much, because everyone will be alright.
If you lose spirit like this, even if we have the opportunity, we won't be able to return.
- So, stay strong.- What do you mean by alright? What is alright?
That faceless king and all of us are on the verge of death!
Can a king without troops or weapons save us?
The one who came forward as the King earlier is someone I know better than anyone else.
He's never going to leave us to die.
Can you promise that?
If we die, you die as well. Can you make that promise!?
- I believe in him. - I asked if you can make a promise!
I promise. I'll also stay here with you.
How can I have the opportunity to beat Silla's King fair and square?
If you spar with me one on one, people will say that the Crown Prince let Silla's King off easy.
Take all the measures that will ensure your win. I will accept them all.
Are you looking down on me?
I could be.
Do you think of yourself as the King? In other words,
I'm curious what a king who has never been the King
thinks of himself.
Even if only a single beast lives in the forest alone, will that beast be able to forget who it is?
If I win, the Princess cannot go back.
The Hwarang who came with you, along with the citizens...
I will behead them and send the heads back.
Let's not make it complicated and make the decision with a sword fight.
The conditions are up to me.
Agreed.
General!
Wait. Before you leave, let's test your luck.
It's 5 and 6.
Escort him well.
He is Silla's King.
Let's go.
Is this the place where Silla's citizens are imprisoned?
Yes. That is correct.
I will prepare another location.
My original place is comfortable. I'll go there.
Are you okay?
I mean, are you okay? (more formal)
Are you really the King?
Tell me. I'm asking if you are the King!
Stop it, Ban Ryu.
Yeah, I'm the King.
Until we get out of here.
Then are you saying that you're not the King afterward?
I'll tell you if I'm the real king or not, if we get out of here alive.
We need to live in order to have a king,
and you also need to keep your heads.
What are you thinking of doing— Ah, since I'm trying to use formal speech all of a sudden, it's not working.
What are you thinking of doing? (Speaking informally.)
I'm going to fight with Crown Prince Chang.
That's a reckless move. He has been trained by war.
He thinks killing people is a joke.
I will win, because I have something to protect.
Are you talking about your sister?
Yeah.
Also, the people who were born in the wrong nation and are starving and afraid.
In your words, "the people."
Is that...the truth?
It is even confirmed that Gakgan's servant went into South Buyeo with a gold vase.
Gakgan's son is also in the delegation.
That's not his son. It's his godson.
Your Highness, His Majesty... Please save His Majesty.
The members of the royal council... Call them.
What do you mean by that?
They said the Hwarang are going to die.
What do you mean die?
There will be no peace-making. Also, the Hwarang will not be able to return.
It seems the Crown Prince of South Buyeo got a tip that the King is in the Hwarang.
Probably from Park Yeong Sil.
Then, are you saying that there will be a war?
The royal council will not make a move since Park Yeong Sil won't either.
Then what should we do?
What do you think we should do?
Poon Wal Joo (Head of the Hwarang) possesses the answer.
Why don't I see Gakgan (Park Yeong Sil) here?
While entering the palace, he had an intestinal illness, which caused him to vomit and have diarrhea. He went back.
Right now, he is receiving medical treatment.
He said that something happened to the envoy of Hwarang sent for peace-making.
But, would such a thing happen? He seems to be mistaken.
This is from a well-informed person.
If we don't quickly bring the troops, the safety of the Princess and the Hwarang—
Are you thinking properly?
If we immediately bring the military into a situation that hasn't even happened and cause a problem,
Silla will have a huge responsibility to bear.
My son isn't in danger. Is that it?
At this time when we're seeking peace, mobilizing the military is impossible.
There's no justification for it.
Up until recently, you wanted to go to war. Now, because we don't have a justifiable cause, we can't mobilize an army?
Exactly which nation do you represent? Are you saying you don't give a damn about Silla's security?!
Are you saying that you made a deal with Crown Prince Chang?
Things turned out easier than I thought. Catching the enemy by using enemies.
It looks like it will take care of itself.
Are you saying Sam Maek Jong is really among the Hwarang that left as envoys?
He is, definitely.
But even if he isn't, we'll have to make it so that he is.
There will be no peace-making. Also, the Hwarang will not be able to return.
It seems the Crown Prince of South Buyeo got a tip that the King is among the Hwarang.
Poon Wal Joo (Head of the Hwarang) possesses the answer.
Damn it.
As expected, I have good luck. Isn't it sheer luck that I met him now?
Had I met him later, who knows what would've happened to me? I get that kind of thought.
Are you planning to kill him?
Isn't everything he says correct?
When everyone knows he is the King, killing him after treating him like one would justify my actions.
The one who made Silla's King surrender, South Buyeo's Crown Prince.
If Silla can come into my hands like that, in the future, dominance of the three kingdoms
will fall easily into my hands.
I think I will be able to give a big present to the King on his birthday.
General, what do you think?
If something bad happens to the Crown Prince, I'll die too.
You also seem to have aged a lot. I'm Chang.
I'm South Buyeo's Crown Prince, Chang. The one who grew up with the battlefield as my playground.
Guys! Hey, guys!
Hey, what, what. Hey, did you hear about that?
They said the Hwarang may not be able to return.
What?
What are you talking about? What do you mean they can't return?
Right now, they're being held by South Buyeo's Crown Prince.
They're all going to die!
What do we do?
What? Explain it in detail!
- Are you serious?- What do we do? What do we do?!
Do you think that the Hwarang has enough power to change Silla? subtitles ripped and synced by riri13
It's very unlike you. Why do you ask such a question?
Because, I suddenly had that thought.
If a bird that has left its nest is to fly in the sky, it will need many days. After sending them out into the world,
will they really be able to fly? I had that kind of thought.
Poon Wol Joo,
in the beginning, I didn't like this place. I didn't acknowledge your teachings either.
However, right now, I know that those children have become different from before.
They are no longer children who remain in an adult's world. They form their own judgments,
they are children who can decide what kind of life they will live.
By any chance...do you plan on creating another uproar?
No, no.
Bu Jae, thank you.
This is a ridiculous contest. Give it up, now.
Rather than doing nothing, I have to try something. Also, I'm not going to lose.
Are you ready?
Don't die.
What's this?
It's one on one. Other conditions remain the same.
Consider this as something I did out of concern for you.
Let's go.
What are you doing right now?
Princess, this is a war.
Here, much of what happens to Silla depends on the outcome.Including you, Princess.
I don't know why that woman keeps catching my eye.
Seeing that you're buying time with nonsense, you must be afraid.
You seem to have trouble holding the sword.
It seems like you're quite interested in me.
I am...South Buyeo's Crown Prince, Chang!
Today, I plan to face Silla's King, Jin Heung, in a sword contest.
This contest is a fair one where we respect each other.
Depending on the outcome, henceforth, the relationship of the two nations will become different.
No matter what the result, I will accept the result. In the future,
I will not make any objections about this incident.
This, in front of Baekje's commander and
Silla's Hwarang,
I swear.
Are you already tired?
If you go to war with that kind of skill, you won't be able to survive 15 minutes and would've died.
He's precise and quick. I can't avoid it.
It will hurt a bit this time.
He's playing with me. If he's going to cut me and make me tired, he's thinking of stabbing me.
At this rate, I won't be able to withstand two rounds.
What are you doing...instead of running away?
I'm having fun. I guess you're not?
Because you're only playing around, it's not fun.
Then, should we end it?
Sounds good.
If you want my arm, I'll give it to you. However, this time, I'll also cut you.
Instead, one move quicker! One, two, now!
General. Didn't you say it's a fair contest in which much is at stake for Silla and South Buyeo?
Are you going to defy the Crown Prince's command?
Let's change the rules.
Now, it should be fun.
Aren't you afraid of dying?
What about it?
This is where Mak Moon and that rascal lived.
He didn't even have a name, so we called him Moo Myeong.
Later on, everyone called him Dog-Bird. Dog-Bird.
Earlier,
you told me I unlatched the gate of fate.
What does that mean?
Did I say that?
There's no such thing as coincidence in the world.
Why out of all people did I raise your son as well as that child?
What does that mean...
Who do you think
that child is?
Enough.
It isn't over yet!
Acknowledge...your defeat.
Keep your promise.
Through this incident, I will not go to war with Silla.
Also, I will release Silla's Princess and the delegation.
What about the people?
What's going to happen to the people here?
They have nothing to do with this incident.
Since, they are criminals guilty of stealing South Buyeo's goods,
they will have to pay with their lives.
- How can you do that?- Put all of them in jail!
- We have to leave now?- We don't know when the Crown Prince will change his mind.
But, where are the remaining two Hwarang?
Are you thinking of bringing her out by yourself?
- Mind your own business.- Give up.
The moment you get caught by the Crown Prince looking for her, she will be the first to die.
Then what do you want me to do?
Because the Crown Prince isn't feeling well, he isn't able to see you off. Please understand.
Tell the Crown Prince that we are happy about making peace between our nations and
continuing the alliance.
I will do so.
You trust him? He isn't someone who would leave us to die?
They all ran away. Now what are you going to do?
If you have a mouth, then at least say something!
Why are you being like this? What wrong did this young lady do?
What do you mean she didn't do anything wrong!
She shouldn't have made us hope! Or needlessly have any expectations!
Because of you...being here is more hellish!
This is starving to death, that's what. I'd rather be one of the ones who got beheaded.
They don't have to worry about being hungry or dying.
Still, don't lose hope.
- That wench is still...- Even if we're going to die anyway,
waiting and dying without hope, isn't something a person should do.
If you're alive, doing what you can is what makes one a person.
What we can do now is to prepare.
What do you mean by prepare? Prepare for what?
Preparing to run away when the opportunity comes.
Preparing to live well again when we return home.
Preparing to be happy again.
So, even though we're going to die, even so,
don't abandon hope.
There's four at the south entrance of the jail and four at the north.
If we're going to get everyone in there out, we have to do it quietly as possible.
We can't get caught with the jails empty for a long time.
But, will you be alright in that state?
Let's go.
Who is there?
Come out quickly. Quickly!
There is no time!
Please move quickly!
Are you okay?
That's a relief. Let's go.
Come out. Come out.
South Buyeo's Crown Prince had great tolerance to
send Silla's envoys back.
How can you do something so immoral?
We originally came here to make peace, but your Crown Prince locked us up and treated us poorly.
If South Buyeo doesn't want to go to war with Silla, you should stop at this point.
In order to show that our countries are at peace, we will take our citizens back.
I will understand that you want to bury your bones in South Buyeo's soil.
Did you have to talk so rudely...
Did you have to say it that way?
It didn't work.
Kill them!
Go!
Are you okay?
We will take care of things here, so you guys take the people towards the South gate.
Ban Ryu.
It's that way. Come quickly. Hurry!
I let them go as you commanded.
Then, we'll have to begin the hunt.
Let the South Buyeo hunters capture the only beast of prey living in the forest.
We're alive!
Spread out! Everyone, spread out!
Soo Ho!
Huh?
Soo Ho!
That's a shame. Someone else got shot.
We are too close to Silla's border.
Then, I guess we will have to end the hunt.
No! You can't!
My child...my child...
No!
Instead of a tiger, isn't this a rat caught in a trap?
Jin Heung! Don't you think we should finish the game?
I think I'm the victor. Were you the type to be this persistent?
I'm saying that we should have a proper fight.
The win on that day left much to be desired.
Then you and I...will fight one on one!
No. This time, it will be an all-out-war.
I lost the desire to let you all return alive.
They are undoubtedly Silla's citizens!
So as the King, how can I leave them to die?
Didn't you say that they have nothing to do with our contest?
Also, those who organized a prison break for the criminals who stole items from South Buyeo,
how can I let them go alive?
If you want to try, go ahead!
I'll block everything.
You want to take it to the very end?
General.
Aim!
What is that?
They are Hwarang.
Looks like I appeared at quite the right time.
To release you as Hwarang anywhere, you sure are in an awful state.
Other than the looks, I am proud that you guys are my Hwarang.
I don't know who you are,
but you are currently on Silla's land.
Apparently, it seems you lost your way while hunting.
You're very close to being mistaken for starting a war.
By chance, you wouldn't be South Buyeo's Crown Prince Chang,
who chased our peace-seeking delegation which wasn't even accompanied by troops?
If you're not this or that, you sure look like a bunch of robbers.
What would you like to do?
Why don't you observe our Hwarang's skills before you leave?
Why don't we return. I don't think this is the right time.
Hwarang. They're called Hwarang.
Your Majesty, the Crown Prince.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
I was so absorbed in tiger hunting that I crossed the border.
Please, generously forgive me for that.
If that's the case...
Today as well, I am leaving you with a debt.
However, the next time we get to meet,
at that time, let's finish the hunt. Jin Heung.
♬ I'm fine with you as the only one.♬
♬ I will find the star.♬
Let's go. ♬ Until I reach the dream♬
♬ Even if darkness surrounds me ♬
♬ You are the only one ♬
♬ I will never throw away.♬
♬ You'll always be mine.♬
♬ I'll whisper in your ear ♬
♬ You're everything to me. ♬
Congratulations. Didn't everything turn out the way Your Highness wanted?
Is everyone really safe?
It seems so.
But, is that Hwarang really His Majesty?
Among the citizens, it is widely rumored that Seon Woo is His Majesty.
The real king who will strengthen Silla.
Aigoo, are you alright?
Aigoo, aigoo, my child...
What are you doing over here? It doesn't look good over there either.
Ahn Ji Gong!
We can't contain the illness. The need for medicine is urgent.
The medicine for the epidemic has also run out in the capital.
So, all of them returned alive?
They even rescued all the citizens captured in Baekje and crossed the border.
I apologize.
This isn't it.
This isn't what I pictured.
An honorable wound, you rascal.
Hey!
With something this trivial, if you're a man, you should endure it.
Sheesh.
Exactly what did they do to have such a vigorous appetite?
How will one be able to make any profit? Sheesh.
I am
the King.
I .. am Silla's King!
To the point of going mad
I wanted to embrace you.
Your injuries...
Are they alright?
Let me take a look.
I'm sorry... for avoiding you.
I know that it was to protect me.
I thought I was dying, while holding back my desire to run to you.
♬ Your aching heart displays everything♬
♬ If you keep doing that you will just leave me♬
I don't really know what I should say in this situation.
♬ I'm afraid of being suspended a long time somewhere in memory♬
♬ I'm afraid ♬
I love you. ♬ the more I try to wipe it out, the more I will be left yearning
I love you.♬ So I can't let you go ♬
♬ So I can't let you go ♬
♬ Although you and I became tears for each other♬

All I am is a coward. Always hiding, always prepared to hide his face, that kind of coward.
♫ I alone who said goodbye ♫
I love you.
Right now, are you planning to run away using me as an excuse?
Orabeoni.
Your Majesty, have you ever given up, even once?
If everything works out well, please keep your promise.
Then what can a king do?
♬ Although you and I ♬
Why do I still have to stay alive?!
♫ Became tears for each other♬
♬ After time passed♬
Do you want to kill me?
Then, kill me.
♬ When we just held each other tight and ♫
♫ It was just like a dream ♬

I'm going to win. Because I have something to protect.
Don't die.
I plan to face Jin Heung in a competition with the sword.
