The Last Princess Page #4

Was anyone with her when it

happened?

From the old Tsushima clan,

this is Count So Takeyuki.

He is a graduate of Tokyo

Imperial University.

Their status is too different now.

I had intended to find a Joseon

husband for Deok Hye.

I understand.

Your Majesty.

I am the matchmaker for the

royal family.

I also want to go into exile.

I want to help Joseon

become independent.

The provisional government

there will welcome you.

Has my brother made a

decision yet?

Not yet.

I'll go and persuade him.

Go into exile? That's impossible.

What will happen if you go?

Do you think they'll give us

even one penny?

Is this something a Korean Royal

Family member should say?

A Royal Family member should not express an opinion?

(PRINCE YI GEON, ELDEST SON OF KING YEONGCHIN)

No matter where we go, we

won't be treated as we are now!

Aunt, am I wrong about this?

I don't want to live like this

anymore.

Minister.

Oh, it's you!

The Princess wasn't feeling well

and went to sleep early.

She felt unwell?

Minister, I have something

to tell you.

This way, please.

After Japan is defeated, the Royal Family

will take back their place, isn't that right?

We must go.

Japan is defeated?

Let's just say I was never here.

I used to dream of being a

soldier.

If Japan had come a decade earlier,

I would have gone to military

school.

Would you like to try it on?

No thanks.

If I had gone to your military

academy,

how do you think I would have

ranked?

I'm sure you would have been

number one.

From now on, call me "hyeong."

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

We can't let them keep using

us as puppets.

If we only think of our personal

interests,

our people will never be able to

forgive us.

Your Majesty, you need to

go into exile.

Here.

The New Era Celebration will be

held at the Tokyo Guild Hall.

All of the targets we are fighting

will be participating.

When the bomb will explode at

1:
00 pm,

our war will begin.

A bomb? Does it have to be

done that way?

It is to attract their attention.

If at the same time that Japan's

new government is attacked,

you will leave into exile,

the whole world will know that the

Korea-Japan union was not done voluntarily.

Within 6 hours after the operation

begins, you will have to leave Japan.

Even if they find out,

searching for us after sundown

will be more difficult.

The Princess and the Queen,

after the first base will be in

disguise.

At the second base in the seaside

tunnel,

they will transfer to the luggage

truck.

From the truck, they will board

a cargo ship together.

To ensure the security of this

information,

the Queen will not be told about

this until the day of the operation.

Will that be okay?

If I told her in advance, she

very likely would refuse.

Once I say I'm leaving, I'm sure

she will come along.

The Princess is supervised

very closely.

You will have to reach the first

base on time with the Queen.

The most likely to notice change in the

Royal Family would be Han Taek Su.

If we must get rid of him in

order to escape,

doing that with the bomb will be

no problem, right?

Don't worry. What else am I

doing here?

I won't die by myself though.

Don't worry.

It's too bad we can't go together.

You still have more important

things you must do.

I'll see you in Shanghai.

We will definitely be successful.

Long live the Korean Empire!

- Long live!

- Long live!

He's already waiting.

It's been a long time.

Yes, it has.

I'm very honored to meet you.

I am So Takeyuki.

You are taller than I expected.

Thank you for freeing up

some time for this.

Microphone check.

Microphone check.

Everyone who has gone through

the checkpoints,

please enter.

Wow! That looks great.

Doesn't it?

It looks very good on you.

Is that so?

Thank you.

The ceremony will begin shortly.

Please take your seats.

We repeat once again.

Did you have breakfast?

My stomach is about to explode.

What are you doing here?

So you've arrived.

This is one of my cousins.

He said he really wanted to attend

the New Era Celebration.

Oh. Is that right?

You must be extremely loyal

to the Emperor of Japan.

I've often heard my brother

mention you.

It will start soon.

I should go.

This has already been prepared.

It's so pretty.

I think it will look very

nice on you.

May I ask sister-in-law to help me?

Of course.

We welcome General Yoshida

Tadao and...

Prince Nobuyuki Watanabe.

Everyone, please sit down.

Go into exile?

I can't believe he never told me.

Where is His Majesty right now?

My brother is already preparing

to go into exile.

Is something wrong?

Yes, but it's all right.

Are you feeling unwell?

Just a moment.

Today, the New Era Celebration

begins. It's a very important day.

We are here to commemorate the day on which

the Emperor Showa ascended to the throne.

We will now proceed to award

the Golden Owl medals.

We celebrate this meaningful day with

the people of the whole country.

We're going to be late.

There's no time.

The more you hesitate will put

my brother in greater danger.

Let us all give 3 cheers for the

long life of the Emperor!

Long live the Emperor of Japan!

Long live!

Long live! Long live! Long live!

Where are my wife and Deok Hye?

They're on their way.

Change your clothes first.

The bomb exploded.

The uprising is successful.

Who are you?

Long live the Empire of Korea.

Han Taek Su is still alive!

Checkpoints have been set up

all the way up the shore.

You must leave quickly.

We must go straight to our

second base.

Please leave first.

Your Majesty, I will remain behind and

escort the Queen and the Princess.

Time is running out.

Please leave quickly.

Who are you?

You can't go in!

This is...

We know the whereabouts of

King Yeongchin and the Queen.

Leave quickly.

Was there another problem?

Officer!

All the roads to the seaside

have been blocked.

Go quickly.

Please get in the car.

My wife and Deok Hye have not

arrived yet.

We don't have time to wait

for them.

Are you alright?

You have to leave.

Your Majesty!

This is your identity card.

It's a forgery.

Please be sure to take it with you.

Only think about righteousness.

This is our last chance to recover

the Joseon Dynasty, Your Majesty!

My wife and Deok Hye are not

able to come here.

I can't leave and abandon them.

You must leave quickly!

We're about to be surrounded!

Hurry!

Commander!

Stop fighting. Go tell Jang Han.

Close the second base.

Commander.

Leave here now!

You should tell them you were

kidnapped at the ceremony venue.

In my next life, I will continue

to fight for our homeland.

This way!

It might be the commander!

I understand. Be careful.

What did they say?

Bok Dong, go and look for a boat.

I'll meet you at noon in 2 days

at the seaside base.

Boat?

The operation has failed.

Is His Majesty safe?

Yes.

Princess, you may have to flee

into exile by yourself.

There's no time. Hurry!

I'm going to stay here!

Go in!

Please be careful.
