My hand went straight down the buttocks.

Is that so?

You dummy.

If you had worked that way,

you'd be a bomb legend.

But you can't do a thing without a blueprint.

Is that my fault?

It's Dong-soo's fault!

You're too loud! Be quiet!

Did you get the blueprint?

An assassin was in the palace.

Who are you?

Jae-jun.

I couldn't recognize you.

So you failed to get it?

What an excuse.

No, someone tried to kill Yi San.

Now it's time for someone else

to do it the hard way.

What?

What?

Stop changing the subject.

What? What?

Did you see anything?

What was it?

I thought I heard something.

Who are you?

I happened to pass by here

and took a peep because I was

just curious about the graves.

I have a feeling the graves

aren't here because of the plague.

You!

Who did you tell?

I didn't tell anyone.

How can we trust you?

- What shall we do with him?

- What else? Kill him.

If you lay even a finger on me,

I'm going to blow my whistle.

Looking for this?

Spare me.

What shall we do?

Our lives depend on secrecy.

Even if a child lets this out.

Now, I remember!

Lately they've been using kids as spies.

He's been specially trained.

Come on!

Someone knew exactly where Yi San

was staying by climbing his roof.

Somebody inside is leaking information.

We must find out who they are!

That is an outlandish assumption.

It could've been just an animal on that roof.

This is trivial!

I got it!

The first icehouse!

Now, the blueprint?

The Seokbinggo blueprint is in the palace...

We know that it's in the palace.

Did you find something out?

It was repaired on ten years ago.

That's right.

Prince Sado had ordered it

when he was granted power.

Then there should be some information

in his records.

Ah, that's right.

Prince Sado's recorded journals.

Copies of the royal journals

are stored in the Jungjoksan storage.

You mean in Jundeung Temple in Kanghwado?

The priests there fought equally

against the Mongolian warriors.

But we have Dong-soo.

I told you we shouldn't have come here!

But we got it, Brother-in-law!

Such beautiful scenery!

Seobinggo has eight ice storage rooms.

To maintain the cold temperature,

the ice is taken out in order

starting from the front room.

On the ceremony, starting from the sixth room...

Wait.

There's one more room.

What?

That's strange.

Geographically, nine rooms are right.

But I swear there were eight rooms.

The country thinks highly of the number nine,

so filling anything to nine is the standard.

Shut up, boy!

Continue on.

Wait!

Usually, things like monsters with

bull heads protect secret rooms.

Cut the bull head crap!

We must be clear about everything.

Sul-wha, can you find out?

With our relationship, you don't need to ask.

What relationship?

It's a very special relationship.

Then Sul-wha,

look out any rumors.

The rest continue on with your jobs.

Nani, what's with those two?

Unbelievable.

Royal secret inspector,

are you going to leave me now?

I have no choice.

The group that I captured last time

has sent an assassin to kill me.

I have to go into hiding

where no one can find me.

A place where even the putrid

royal forces can't find me.

Like for example,

the home of a high-ranking official.

Inspector...

Then...

Did you call for me, father?

Raise the ice prices by thirty percent.

Thirty percent?

Won't the others oppose?

With this accounting book, they have no choice.

You manage it from now on.

Thank you, father.

No one must come into this library.

Understand?

Yes.

You scared me!

I'm sorry, sir.

Anyway, who are you?

I've never seen you before.

I'm called Horse-poo, sir.

Dog-poo, Horse-poo.

All of you slaves have poo at the end.

She wants to do it again?

Who the hell are we meeting?

They call him "The Sea of Information".

He's the only one who can tell us

about that secret room.

Then you could've brought Dong-soo.

No.

He has this daughter...

Daughter?

Oh, yeah.

Do not talk or make a sound.

His sense of hearing is ultrasensitive.

So he communicates only through music.

Long time no see.

What do you want this time?

The Crown Prince Sado...

Local government office...

Stop!

Stop! Stop!

Look here! What are you doing?

Stop this!

I told you not to make a sound.

How could I not make a sound when that woman...

Did you find anything out?

Do you know about

the Crown Prince So-hyeon?

Crown Prince So-hyeon?

He was taken hostage into China

and returned eight years later.

He made a lot by trading while he was in China.

And when he returned he exchanged

his savings into gold bars and silk.

Really? Then what happened next?

After he had passed away,

the King confiscated his assets.

So his books and Chinese belongings

were all confiscated,

but his gold had disappeared.

Disappeared?

I heard a Chinese eunuch had come

with Prince So-hyeon on his return.

He hid the day after Prince So-hyeon

had passed away.

And traces of the Chinese eunuch

had vanished at a provincial office.

But one year before Prince Sado had died,

he had secretly gone

to a provincial office.

Prince Sado had borrowed

secret funds from merchants

because Lord Cho was pushing him out.

Before Prince Sado had died,

he had paid it all back.

To you, Mr. Jang.

If you know anything, would you please tell me?

So then by any chance...

I'm busy as hell.

What does he want now?

- Busy my ass.

- Damn you.

Who the hell is he?

Jae-jun.

You scared me.

Tell us when you're in disguise.

Wait, this is...

It is.

I told him that he didn't need to pay me back.

But he wouldn't listen.

I thought it was strange then as well.

All the gold that I received had

a Chinese mark engraved on them.

So the royal gold that had vanished

is probably in that secret room.

- Gold?

- Gold?

Are you sure?

It's just a guess.

So what will we do now?

What else? We steal it!

That's right!

It'll be much easier to transport than ice.

Right, Chul-joo?

We should steal the gold first before the ice.

What are you all talking about?

Even if there was gold in there,

it belongs to the King and country.

We must not touch it.

Then why is the King and country's gold buried?

Be it gold or women,

whoever claims it first owns it.

- Yes!

- That's right!

What do you think?

You started this so I will follow you.

What will you do?

We steal the gold as well.

What?

Have you forgotten your promise

to not touch the country's assets?

According to Suk-chang,

it isn't the country's assets.

If that's the case, I'm out.

Now, we have to steal the ice, gold

and the accounting book.

Please work faster.

I got it!

What's your name?

Call me Private Jung.

Private Jung, how about making

some explosives with me.

What?

Yes!

Private Jung, I'll explain your job now.

First, bring some urine.

A lot of it.

Dae-hyun took you under his wing

and you're digging for manure?

It's urine, not manure.

No big difference.

- Private Sh*t!

- General Sh*t!

Scram, you little rotten punks!

That's enough.
