Short filmTranscript
00:00Ji Yun's transformation into Ji Hai, a name chosen by Sun Min to reflect elegance and wisdom,
00:06was complete. The name spread far and wide, carried on the whispers of traders and travelers
00:12who marveled at her unparalleled beauty. Ji Hai wasn't merely admired, she was adored,
00:18envied, and sought after by the most influential men of the land.
00:23One sunny afternoon, the town square was buzzing with excitement.
00:26Ji Hai had just won first place in the grand annual beauty competition,
00:32dazzling the judges with her poise, charm, and radiant appearance.
00:37Draped in flowing silk, her every movement seemed to embody grace itself.
00:42The victory solidified her reputation as a gem among women, one whose worth seemed beyond measure.
00:48News of her triumph reached even the wealthiest merchants and noblemen.
00:52One by one, suitors began arriving at Sun Min's doorstep, their carriages laden with treasures,
00:59gold coins that gleamed in the sunlight, rare oils in ornate bottles, silks dyed in vibrant hues,
01:06and even pearls said to be harvested from distant seas.
01:09They came with one purpose, to ask for Ji Hai's hand in marriage.
01:14Each time a suitor arrived, Sun Min would call for Ji Hai, instructing her to serve tea or wine to the
01:21guests. Ji Hai, draped in exquisite garments chosen by her father, moved with effortless grace.
01:29The suitors would stare, utterly captivated by her elegance, and their desire to win her favor would
01:34only deepen. But Sun Min, ever calculating, would turn them all away with a smile and a measured tone.
01:41While I appreciate your offer, he would say, my daughter is destined for greatness.
01:47Someone as extraordinary as Ji Hai deserves nothing less than royalty.
01:53The suitors, despite their disappointment, would leave without complaint.
01:57Sun Min's words were so convincing that they felt honored to have even been considered.
02:02Yet, each time Ji Yun overheard his father's declarations, his heart sank.
02:07What was Sun Min's true plan? Did he mean to offer him to the king as a concubine?
02:14The thought churned in his mind, leaving him restless. But he knew better than to ask,
02:20Sun Min would never reveal his intentions. That evening, Yuna appeared at Ji Yun's door,
02:26her usual calm presence tinged with urgency. Come, she whispered.
02:31Han Su has a new batch of goods. Ji Yun nodded. Together, they slipped into the night,
02:39their steps silent against the cobblestone streets. They reached the meeting spot,
02:44where Han Su waited with a distributor. Han Su greeted them with his usual playful grin,
02:50though his expression turned serious when the distributor spoke.
02:53The government is on to us, the man warned. They've caught wind of the operation,
03:00and word is the crown prince himself might lead the investigation. Ji Yun's blood ran cold.
03:07The crown prince, he whispered, his voice barely audible. The distributor nodded grimly.
03:14I hear he's relentless with his missions. If he gets involved, none of us are safe.
03:19Ji Yun's hands trembled, but he clenched them into fists, steadying himself. He was so close to
03:27earning enough money to escape Sung Min's grasp, to leave behind the life of lies and manipulation.
03:33But he had also been giving away part of his earnings to help struggling villagers.
03:38The economy had taken a sharp downturn, and Ji Yun couldn't ignore the desperation in their eyes.
03:44I only need one more job, Ji Yun said, determination hardening his voice.
03:49One last delivery, and I'll be free. Are you sure?
03:55Yuna asked, her brows furrowed with concern.
03:58This is risky, Ji Yun. If the crown prince is involved.
04:04I don't have a choice, Ji Yun interrupted.
04:07This is my only chance.
04:10Yuna hesitated before placing a reassuring hand on Ji Yun's shoulder.
04:14Promise me you'll be careful, she said softly.
04:18Ji Yun nodded, his heart pounding with a mix of fear and resolve.
04:23Meanwhile, the flickering glow of lanterns illuminated the royal chamber as Prince Kyung Hoon leaned back on his ornate cushion, wine goblet, in hand.
04:32The rhythmic sound of music and the fluid movements of the dancing women filled the air, blending into the laughter between him and his younger half-brother, Tae Jin.
04:41Tae Jin, the son of a servant but raised alongside the prince, was visibly less at ease.
04:48His fingers drummed anxiously on his cup as he leaned closer to Kyung Hoon.
04:52Heung, Tae Jin said in a hushed yet urgent tone, the queen will have a fit if she hears about this.
05:00And you know she'll blame me, saying I'm the bad influence.
05:04His voice was tinged with both worry and frustration.
05:08Kyung Hoon grinned lazily, waving his hand dismissively.
05:12Let her blame you.
05:14What's new?
05:16Besides, he added, taking another sip of wine, I'm just trying to forget my responsibilities for a moment.
05:23Do you know how exhausting it is to carry the weight of an entire kingdom?
05:27Tae Jin frowned but didn't reply, his worry growing as he glanced toward the heavy wooden doors.
05:34His instincts proved correct when, moments later, they swung open with a loud crash.
05:39The queen strode in, her presence commanding the room.
05:43Her embroidered gown sparkled in the dim light, but her expression was far from radiant.
05:48Behind her trailed Min Seo, her chosen candidate for the future queen, looking poised but uncomfortable in the heated atmosphere.
05:57The dancers froze, their movements halted mid-spin.
06:01The music abruptly stopped.
06:03The queen's gaze swept over the room, her eyes narrowing with disapproval.
06:09Out, she commanded sharply, gesturing at the women.
06:13The dancers scattered like startled birds, leaving Kyung Hoon reclining on his cushion, his expression one of mild annoyance.
06:21Tae Jin had already risen to his feet, his head bowed in respect.
06:24You, the queen spat, her finger pointed at Tae Yong.
06:30How dare you lead the crown prince astray?
06:33As if your very existence isn't enough of a stain, you have the audacity to corrupt him further?
06:39Tae Jin flinched but didn't speak.
06:42Kyung Hoon's easy demeanor evaporated, his expression hardening as he set his goblet down with deliberate care.
06:48Mother, he said, his voice laced with steel, enough.
06:52The queen turned her piercing gaze on him.
06:56Enough?
06:57No, it's not enough.
07:00I warned your father that keeping this boy around would cause trouble.
07:04He's the son of a servant and has no place beside you.
07:08That boy, Kyung Hoon retorted, his tone sharp, is my brother, and I won't have you treating him like dirt.
07:15Tae Jin looked up at his older brother, his expression a mix of gratitude and sorrow.
07:20But before he could say anything, he glanced at the queen's cold, unrelenting face.
07:27Knowing his presence would only worsen the situation, he bowed deeply and left the room in silence.
07:33Kyung Hoon watched his brother go, his jaw tightening.
07:37You have no right to treat him like that, he said, glaring at his mother.
07:42The queen, however, was unmoved.
07:44I have every right.
07:47You, on the other hand, should be preparing yourself for what lies ahead.
07:52Your marriage.
07:53At this, Kyung Hoon snorted, leaning back against his cushion.
07:58Marriage?
07:59Isn't that all you talk about?
08:02The queen's eyes flicked toward Min Seo, who stood silently beside her.
08:07The selection is a formality.
08:10We both know Min Seo will win.
08:12She is perfect, poised, accomplished, and suitable for a prince.
08:18It's time you treated her as such and stopped with these frivolities.
08:22Kyung Hoon's laughter echoed through the chamber.
08:25You think I'll marry her just because you say so.
08:29I'll choose my wife, not you.
08:32Your insolence will only bring disgrace to this family, the queen snapped.
08:36Mark my words.
08:38Before Kyung Hoon could respond, a servant appeared at the door, bowing deeply.
08:44Your highness, the scholars await you for your lesson.
08:48The prince stood with a sigh, brushing past the queen and Min Seo.
08:53This conversation is over.
08:55In the scholars' chamber, the atmosphere was no less tense.
09:00Kyung Hoon sat among the elder advisors, his posture straight, his gaze piercing.
09:04Today's lesson was on governance and policies, but as the discussion unfolded, Kyung Hoon's
09:10patience wore thin.
09:12One of the scholars droned on about the importance of maintaining strict control over the people
09:17to ensure stability.
09:19Kyung Hoon raised a hand, cutting him off mid-sentence.
09:23Control over the people, he repeated, his voice calm but edged with disdain.
09:28Is that what you call impoverishing them with taxes while the officials lined their pockets?
09:34The room fell silent, the scholars exchanging uneasy glances.
09:39Another advisor cleared his throat.
09:42Your highness, such remarks are unbecoming.
09:45These policies are enacted by the king, your father.
09:49Don't hide behind my father, Kyung Hoon interrupted, his voice rising.
09:53You speak of service to the people, but all you serve is yourselves.
09:59The farmers can barely afford to eat.
10:02The merchants are burdened with levies so heavy they can't trade.
10:06Is this the stability you teach me to uphold?
10:09One of the older scholars bristled.
10:12Your highness, these accusations are unfounded and dangerously close to treason.
10:17You insult the very throne you are destined to inherit.
10:20Kyung Hoon leaned forward, his gaze unwavering.
10:25The throne means nothing if it's built on the suffering of the people.
10:29You, all of you, are hypocrites.
10:32The silence was deafening.
10:35The scholars, unused to being challenged, sat stiffly, their faces a mix of anger and embarrassment.
10:41Kyung Hoon stood, his chair scraping against the floor.
10:45Your methods are outdated, your morals non-existent, he said.
10:49You teach me about duty, but you've forgotten yours.
10:54Without waiting for a response, he turned on his heel and left the chamber, leaving the scholars in stunned silence.
11:01The echoes of his footsteps in the hall mirrored the tumult in his heart.
11:05He would not be a puppet prince.
11:08Not for his mother, not for the scholars, and certainly not for a kingdom built on corruption.
11:13Later, Kyung Hoon stood before his father, King Jang, in the grand throne room.
11:20The air was heavy with the weight of the confrontation, and the flickering torchlight made the king's stern expression appear even more menacing.
11:28Kyung Hoon remained silent, his jaw clenched as his father's voice thundered.
11:32You insult my reign.
11:35King Jang roared, slamming his fist on the arm of his throne.
11:40Undermining my rule in front of the scholars, questioning the very foundation of this kingdom.
11:45I only spoke the truth, Kyung Hoon replied, his voice calm but firm.
11:51The truth?
11:52The king sneered.
11:53Your truth is a reckless, soft, idealistic drivel that has no place in governance.
12:00Rulers must rule with an iron grip.
12:03Compassion is a weakness, and weakness leads to ruin.
12:07The previous king, he stopped abruptly, his lips pressed into a thin line.
12:13Kyung Hoon's brow furrowed.
12:15What about the previous king?
12:17That's none of your concern, King Jang snapped, waving a dismissive hand.
12:22Just know that his softness made him unfit to rule, and he suffered the consequences.
12:28The prince's stomach churned at his father's cryptic words.
12:32He wanted to press further but knew better than to challenge the king when his temper flared.
12:37Before he could respond, King Jang straightened, his eyes cold and calculating.
12:43Enough of this, the king said.
12:45You want to prove your worth as crown prince?
12:49Then do so.
12:50There's a plague in this kingdom, Kyung Hoon, and it's the illegal merchants spreading their
12:55contraband goods.
12:57They defy my laws, weaken the economy, and embolden rebellion.
13:02Merchants?
13:03Kyung Hoon asked, confused by the sudden change in topic.
13:08Yes.
13:10Your task is to root them out and eliminate them.
13:12Start with the most prominent of them all, the one they call the masked traitor.
13:18He's no ordinary criminal.
13:20He gives money to the poor, which makes him dangerous.
13:24It gives people hope, and hope breeds defiance.
13:28The king leaned forward, his voice dropping to a threatening tone.
13:32You are to find him and end his operations.
13:35If you fail, Kyung Hoon, your position as crown prince will be at risk.
13:41Do I make myself clear?
13:43Kyung Hoon nodded stiffly.
13:46Yes, father.
13:48Good, King Jang said, leaning back.
13:51Now leave me.
13:53Later that evening, Kyung Hoon met with the chief guard in a quiet chamber.
13:57The guard, a seasoned man with a grizzled beard and piercing eyes, laid out a map on the table
14:04between them.
14:05We've gathered significant information about the illegal merchants, the guard began.
14:11Among them, the masked traitor stands out as the most elusive and influential.
14:16He operates in secrecy, yet his actions ripple through the kingdom.
14:20Why is he so hard to catch?
14:23Kyung Hoon asked, studying the map.
14:26The guard pointed to a series of marked locations.
14:30He's clever.
14:32He never stays in one place.
14:34But we've been tracking his movements, and we believe we know where he'll be next.
14:39Where?
14:40Kyung Hoon asked, his interest piqued.
14:43There's a drop-off scheduled in two nights, the guard said, tapping a spot on the map.
14:49Here, at the edge of the marketplace near the forest.
14:52It's risky, but we have intelligence suggesting he'll be there personally.
14:57Do we know what he looks like?
15:00The guard shook his head.
15:02No one does.
15:04He always wears a mask and keeps his identity hidden.
15:08What we do know is that he has garnered a sort of, following.
15:12Many of the poor see him as a hero because he shares his wealth with them.
15:17Kyung Hoon frowned.
15:19A criminal who helps the poor.
15:22It's a dangerous combination, the guard replied.
15:25It makes people loyal to him, willing to protect him even at their own peril.
15:30That's why it's imperative we strike quickly and decisively.
15:34The prince nodded, his mind racing.
15:37We'll need a strategy.
15:39I won't allow this to fail.
15:41The guard gave a curt bow.
15:44As you command, your highness.
15:47I'll assemble a team.
15:49As the guard left, Kyung Hoon stared at the map, his thoughts clouded.
15:54The masked traitor intrigued him.
15:57Why would someone risk everything to help the poor?
15:59And why did his father seem so intent on crushing even the faintest glimmer of hope among the people?
16:06The moon hung low in the night sky, casting a pale light over Ji-yoon as he adjusted his mask in the mirror.
16:13His reflection, obscured but defiant, stared back at him.
16:18This would be his last job, the final risk before he could sever the chains that bound him to his father.
16:23His heart pounded with anticipation and fear.
16:28He quietly slipped out of the house, the goods concealed in a modest cart.
16:33The streets were eerily silent as Ji-yoon navigated the dark alleys, careful not to draw attention.
16:40He repeated Yoon's instructions in his mind, determined to follow the plan precisely.
16:45By the time he reached the secluded meet-up spot at the edge of the forest, a strange chill ran down his spine.
16:51Something felt off.
16:54Before he could react, shadows emerged from the surrounding trees, soldiers.
17:00They moved swiftly, cutting off every possible escape route.
17:04Ji-yoon's pulse raced as he turned on his heel and bolted.
17:08Don't let him get away, a voice shouted.
17:11The sound of pounding footsteps and the clinking of armor followed him as he dashed through the woods, his heart pounding.
17:17He wove through trees, his breath ragged, but just when he thought he'd outrun them, he skidded to a stop.
17:25Standing in his path were two men, Kyung-hoon and his younger brother.
17:30Ji-yoon froze.
17:32Something about Kyung-hoon made his chest tighten.
17:36He seemed familiar.
17:38His stance, his sharp features, and the intensity in his gaze all stirred a memory buried deep within Ji-yoon's mind.
17:45It couldn't be, could it?
17:48End of the line, Kyung-hoon said coldly, stepping forward.
17:53Reveal your face.
17:55Ji-yoon gripped his mask tighter, shaking his head.
17:58No.
18:00Kyung-hoon's brother hesitated, sensing the tension, but Kyung-hoon wasn't about to back down.
18:05In a swift motion, he closed the distance between them, grabbing Ji-yoon's wrist with surprising strength.
18:13Ji-yoon struggled, but Kyung-hoon was relentless, finally ripping the mask from his face.
18:19The world seemed to stop.
18:22Kyung-hoon's eyes widened, stunned by the ethereal beauty before him.
18:27Ji-yoon's delicate features were illuminated by the moonlight, his flawless skin and striking eyes impossible to ignore.
18:34But it was the golden hair glinting in the soft light that caught Kyung-hoon's attention.
18:40Recognition flickered in his mind, like a puzzle piece clicking into place.
18:45Your hair, Kyung-hoon muttered, his voice barely above a whisper, as though he was on the verge of uncovering a long-lost secret.
18:53Before he could finish his thought, an arrow flew through the air, piercing his shoulder.
18:59Kyung-hoon staggered, a gasp escaping his lips as pain shot through him.
19:04His brother cried out in alarm, rushing to his side.
19:08Suddenly, chaos erupted.
19:11Mysterious figures emerged from the shadows, attacking the soldiers with brutal efficiency.
19:17Ji-yoon watched in stunned silence as Kyung-hoon and his brother were overwhelmed, their guards falling one by one.
19:24In the confusion, Ji-yoon felt a hand grab his arm.
19:28Come with us, a voice hissed.
19:31Ji-yoon was dragged into the darkness, his mind racing.
19:35He glanced back one last time to see Kyung-hoon crumple to the ground, his brother desperately trying to stop the bleeding.
19:42As Kyung-hoon's eyes fluttered shut, Ji-yoon's heart clenched.
19:46The knight swallowed him and his captors whole, leaving behind only the echoes of battle and a prince lying unconscious on the forest floor.
19:54Thanks for watching.
