Yeah, it's me.
I'm eating now.
No, it's okay. What's up?
Yeah? That's great.
Yeah.
Was that Hyo Rin?
Yeah.
You know, you don't have to do that. You're just talking to a friend.
What do you mean by that?
It just seemed like you were worried about what I was thinking.
Worried?
You're not implying that I should be, are you?
Whether I'm married or not
I'll take any call I want to.
The reason I looked at you was because you have rice on your face.
What?
But still. That was harsh.
Even though you told me about your reasons for marrying me
I can't believe you would say that with me right there next to you.
I felt like I was being traded in.
It wasn't a good feeling.
Do you think you have a right to say that?
What do you mean by that?
I may have said that first but you married me for my money.
Didn't you ask the Queen for money to save your family?
Isn't that the same as marrying for money?
Don't take it the wrong way.
I just overheard the adults talking about it.
I thought you were just a dumb girl
but I guess your math skills are fine.
I heard you got your finance papers.
Did you like what you saw?
How can you talk to me like that?
Did I hurt your feelings?
Don't be like that. Try the dessert.
You're really angry.
Is it because I found out your true intentions?
If only I could, I'd staple that mouth of yours shut.
Fine.
Even though I don't like you, I married you for your money. Happy?
Seems like I made the right choice, considering the money I got.
Since you already know that I'm a gold digger...
I'll just use some of that money to help out my poor family.
You know Lee Dong Won from "The Trap of Youth?"
She's my role model.
She's all about marrying a rich guy for money.
Better be careful.
You arrogant jerk!
Jerk...
What a jerk.
Your Highness, where are you going?
You must go straight to the...
I'll be back soon.
Your Highness, may I begin telling you your schedule for today?
- Do you know what "The Trap of Youth" is? - Pardon?
I believe it's a drama from years back.
Why?
If we're getting divorced anyway, I'm going to do whatever I want. Jerk.
Hey...
I get it now. So Yul is Prince Ui Seong.
Palace law mandates that all princes besides Shin live outside the palace.
So I can't live here
but I come once a day.
By the way, thank you.
When I was training for the ceremony... For the chocolate and candy.
Chocolate? Candy?
You don't have to pretend.
("The Trap of Youth")
Hey, does anyone say anything about me?
Since I became Crown Princess and all.
I bet they're saying mean things.
Just that...
It's always the quiet ones that fool you
and how'd she manage to seduce the Crown Prince with that face?"
Stuff like that.
You're so gullible.
You believed that?
Hey...
You're cute.
Definitely not Shin's type.
Who is it?
Is it Lady Choi?
Hello?
Where are you right now?
Shin?
Why? Are you checking to make sure I didn't steal anything?
Fighting already?
Sounds like you guys are having fun.
You call this fun?
Don't you have to go?
No, it's okay.
You should go. He'll get mad if you make him wait.
Where did you go? Miss Lee Dong Won?
She's a real bad person, that one.
She's just like me. She married just for money.
Stop it already.
I learned a few things from watching that drama.
I was thinking of inviting the actress over.
You could invite your friends.
Are you joking?
Hey.
- Go away. - Hey.
I don't want to see your face. Go away.
Hey. Hey, I'm kidding.
You want to go home, don't you?
Do you want to go home?
Or we can invite your parents here.
Okay.
If you behave.
What?
I'm going to lose my mind. First, you accuse me of being a gold digger.
Now you're teasing me about my family?
That's enough.
That's as far as you can go.
Hey, are you ready for your test tomorrow?
Test?
Hey, Gang Hyeon. Gang Hyeon.
Hey, Gang Hyeon.
Your Highness, you should've hit the books beforehand.
Time's up.
Collect the papers from the back.
I'm starving.
Hey, you're married and you haven't done it yet? That sucks.
There's nothing like it.
Hyo Rin!
Your Highness.
We cannot find the Crown Princess.
We were waiting for her to come out of class but we can't find her.
She's not calling either.
The perfect disguise. They won't recognize me.
You're nuts.
Lady of the 21st century!
How'd you know it was me?
You're good.
Hey, we all knew it was you.
Anyway, come here. Eat with us.
Hurry.
Try it.
What is it? Is it too messy?
It's not that.
I've just never had this before.
You're kidding.
They make this at the palace.
Not this spicy.
You poor thing.
Please, have a taste.
No need to be so polite. Eat, guys.
Eat guys?
He hasn't been in Korea long.
Is it weird?
Your Highness! The car's leaving!
Really? Really? It really is!
Shin! You can't leave by yourself!
She learns everything related to art or music quickly and enthusiastically.
The problem is literature.
She is not interested. She has much difficulty.
Even still. How can she still be reading the books on filial piety?
It is because of my shortcomings, Your Majesty.
From now on, she must finish the day's assignments
no matter how long it takes.
Yes, Your Majesty. As you wish.
Did you hear? My mom and dad are coming to the palace today.
Yeah?
So I was wondering if you could help me study this.
These characters are too hard.
I have to finish this to see my parents.
Sorry, I have class.
Go to the library.
Jerk.
Fine, I'll do it myself!
We should've invited you much sooner.
Please excuse the delay.
We don't know how to thank you for your graciousness.
We're honored that you made time to have us here.
Our daughter still has much to learn. I hope she hasn't been a nuisance.
Nothing of the sort.
She has a lot of energy but she's brave and devoted.
Thank goodness.
She doesn't study much but she's smart.
And she adapts well.
She can survive a plane crash
and find a way to make kimchi in the desert.
Yes, she has a very sunny disposition.
I wonder what the secret to her energy is?
The secret to her energy?
We breastfed her. For 5 years.
She drank heartily.
Your Highness.
You cannot use your cell phone during lessons.
It's been 30 minutes.
I'll finish writing these after I meet my parents.
You must finish today's lesson before you can get up.
We cannot go against the Queen's orders.
Then, I can go when I finish writing up to here, right?
Please accept my apologies. I'll be right in.
Where is she?
She's not even calling. It's been over an hour already.
Aren't you worried at all about your daughter?
Are your insurance sales that great?
Of course. Who else can say they signed up the King?
That's true.
You're definitely good.
You could make a dead person sign up.
His Majesty didn't look well. He needs the insurance.
Let's go. I have to go in to the office.
Go? Go where?
Should we go find Chae Gyeong?
She's in the middle of lessons. Let's go.
That will be of more help to her.
But I miss her so much. Our Princess.
They said they would send her home next week. We can see her then.
Wait a minute.
Come on, I'm late.
Your Highness! You cannot run.
One second, I have to get the gift.
If Her Majesty finds out, she will be very upset.
So keep it a secret.
Mom! Dad!
(Chae Gyeong, we had to leave. Listen to your elders and study hard.)
How could you just leave? You should've at least called.
They wouldn't let me use the phone...
And forced me to keep writing.
I miss you so much.
You guys are mean.
Mom...
What kind of a son-in-law are you?
How could you just let them leave?
It's all just an act, isn't it?
I miss them so much I could die.
He did not know they left, Your Highness.
His Highness worried you might feel uncomfortable
and suggested we leave you to speak comfortably with your parents.
That is why we were on our way just now.
Stop speaking nonsense and tell me what's next on the schedule.
And have that sent to their house.
Yes, Your Highness.
What's next on your schedule?
Hey...
Hey!
Hello?
That narcissistic jerk.
You still like Hyo Rin, don't you?
If I refused to go through with the marriage...
You would've married her.
Since she's the one you really like, right?
You'd probably have a much happier expression on your face then.
I feel bad because I feel like I'm getting in the way of something.
But then if I think about you two marrying,
I feel even worse.
I'm weird, aren't I?
Bathroom.
What are you listening to?
There's no CD.
Or radio.
What was he listening to?
Did he hear everything?
I'm going to die!
Where are you going?
Nowhere.
Someone shoot me. I'm so embarrassed.
You're saying he heard everything and pretended he didn't?
He's driving me crazy.
His face said it all. He heard everything.
Well, maybe he didn't.
No, he smirked at me when he saw me. He definitely heard everything.
But it's not like I told him straight out that I like him.
Dummy. You might as well have.
Really?
You really like him, don't you?
You're just like the heroine in the book I'm reading.
Why does everyone in arranged marriages end up falling in love?
("An Arranged Marriage with a Millionaire")
What are you thinking about?
Here to see the Queen Dowager?
Hey, I just found out Shin's birthday is next week.
What? His birthday?
You didn't know?
He's having a party at the family resort on Jeju Island.
Why doesn't the Crown Princess know about this?
(Princess Hours)
(Royal Family resort, Jeju Island)
His Highness' friends have arrived.
It's been a long time.
Congratulations, Your Highness.
Hey, Yul came too.
Hey.
Nice.
You like it?
Looks like you spent some time planning it this year.
Where did Hyo Rin go?
Oh, there she is.
Happy birthday, Your Highness.
Hold on, I'll be right back.
Who are these people?
Extended family members and Shin's friends.
- Mainly equestrian club members. - I see.
What about her?
I heard Shin recruited her to the club last year.
I see.
Min Hyo Rin. That girl.
She's the Queen Bee at school.
Queen Bee?
She's the most popular.
The prettiest girl.
So that's what that means.
You have much to learn, Yul.
"Knowledge is power."
Lady of the 21st century. Not bad.
Hold on.
Hwa Yeong!
Did you get there okay?
It's been crazy redoing the interior here.
No, it's almost finished.
Put that in the room on the left. Bring the mats and bricks here.
- There? - Yes.
Mr. Choi!
Yul, I have a guest. I'll call you later.
How are preparations coming along?
There isn't much to prepare. It's about as big as a walk-in closet.
If this is the closet, how big is the house?
I'd like to live in a house like that.
It is a bit small.
You're familiar with the stories in England.
Every day there is news about the Royal Family or some scandal.
Prince Charles is the heir
but people want to see Prince William crowned.
According to public opinion polls.
Whether a person lives or dies depends on the press and public opinion.
It wouldn't do to uncover a secret feud in the Royal Family.
The important thing is how you use the media and public opinion.
That's what war is in modern times.
Do you have any concrete plans?
They have already been set in motion.
This way, please.
Hurry up.
Excuse me.
It's been a while.
Yeah. I couldn't say hi before because there were so many people.
It's okay.
How's life in the palace?
Your Highness?
What? It's okay.
Hey, come inside. Stop bothering the kid.
Do you think you can eat all that?
Yeah.
Let's eat.
It's green tea cake.
Shin, have some.
It was so hard to get here. I feel like a pack animal.
Look at that. It's like a scene from a movie.
Isn't that...
Isn't that the alien Prince?
- Where? Where? - There.
Why's he here?
He's the spitting image of the late King.
He must be the son.
I knew he was different. He didn't seem like an average kid.
Then that means he was the true Crown Prince?
Quiet. Be quiet.
What's that? Who's out there?
Hey, come on!
Wait!
I didn't have any. Can I choose another one?
Don't worry about it. You'll get used to it.
Where did Shin go? I don't see him.
He didn't tell you?
He said he was tired, so he went to the spa.
The spa?
Yul!
Your relatives are looking for you.
Really?
Chae Gyeong, I'll be right back.
How's it going?
Are you having fun here, Princess?
Hell no! It's full of shit.
By the way, where is Shin?
Who knows? I'm dying to sleep. What kind of party is this?
What are they saying?
What are you guys doing?
Is that so good to make fun of her?
Yeah! This is the best part of this party.
Stop speaking English. I don't understand.
I'm going to ask her again.
Are you really having fun here?
Are you with me?
Okay. Thank you.
Okay! Thank you!
Wow, beautiful party!
You drinking juice?
How come you didn't tell Chae Gyeong you were here?
You should be with her.
You're the Crown Prince and she's your wife.
Isn't it a given?
They say they're friends of the Crown Princess. We still need verification.
I understand.
What were you looking at?
Do you know who we are?
We are Shin Sung Saeng Sung.
I'm Shin Sung.
I'm Saeng Sung. We are Shin Sung Saeng Sung.
You still don't know who we are?
Please believe us. We're the Crown Princess' closest friends.
Guys!
Chae Gyeong!
You're cutting private lessons, aren't you?
It's the Prince's birthday. How could we miss it?
I can't believe you guys came all the way down here. How'd you know?
We're the Royal Family's biggest fans.
Of course we know where the resort is.
We used all our savings and flew here. We're flat broke now.
I just followed these guys. I didn't really want to come.
Liar.
Shouldn't you go back? Everyone's probably waiting for you.
The Crown Princess can't miss the present opening ceremony.
Okay, thanks.
Bring your friends.
Do you think it'll be okay?
Why not? We're all classmates.
Hey. He's a prince. Right?
How'd you know that?
That's a secret.
We are loyal servants to the throne!
You sit. Let's go.
This is nice. I should get one.
Let's go for a boat ride.
Let's go to Switzerland tomorrow.
This is from Min Hyo Rin.
It's an mp3 player.
Looks like the newest model. Nice.
Thanks.
What's this?
It looks like the shoes we wear at school.
That's my present.
I redesigned our school shoes. Made it more traditional looking.
Shoes? You got him shoes?
They look like court jester shoes.
Hey, Shin! Try them on.
Chae Gyeong.
Okay, I'll try talking to him.
What kind of a present is that?
I'm embarrassed for her.
How embarrassing.
I spent a lot of time making those.
Good presents don't have to be expensive.
It's the thought that counts.
Silence! Take these.
You have to give His Highness our presents.
My friends want to give you these.
They're members of your fan club.
Have been since they were 5.
Your Highness, we've been counting the seconds until this day.
If you would permit me to shake your hand, this lowly servant...
What?
That's Hyo Rin's seat.
That's not your seat, Your Highness.
Sorry.
I thought it was an empty seat.
She acts like she's grabbing a seat on the subway. How elegant.
What's with her?
What's wrong with her face?
That's Hyo Rin's seat!" What a loser.
That's not your seat." What a load of bull.
We're stupid but you're not.
Are you Candy? Why are you acting so innocent?
I'm not.
Then what are you doing?
She looks like the bad guy
but the real bad guy is me.
What are you talking about?
How can the Crown Princess be the bad person?
She was Shin's girlfriend.
He even proposed to her.
What? He proposed?
The Crown Prince? To Hyo Rin?
No, not exactly.
Anyway.
She knows him better than I do.
What he likes, what he's feeling.
I don't know anything.
This is true. They look good together.
I agree.
See? And I've come between them.
That makes me the bad guy.
That's why I'm turning the other cheek.
I guess you're right. You are the bad guy.
Girl of the 21st century and friends.
Why so glum?
Is the party boring?
Hey, Yul!
Are you guys having fun?
I'll get that.
Throw it out.
Did you try it out?
Not yet.
You can play video files too.
My first time on Jeju Island and I can only stay for a day.
Will the carriage turn back into a pumpkin at the stroke of midnight?
Don't tell me you forgot already.
Greeting the elders in the morning is one of our most important duties.
Remember?
I totally forgot.
It's Sunday tomorrow and I can't even sleep in.
I really can't oversleep tomorrow. I better stay up all night.
(Princess Hours)
Put your hand down.
You can't take a picture without this.
What do you think you're doing?
Does that brat really think he has the right to take the throne?
It would've been nice if someone like you had become the Crown Princess.
I'm not saying I have to be the one by your side.
But I can't stand that a girl like her is.
She doesn't deserve you.
You hide it well.
But I know you don't feel as happy as you look.
Well, you know that thing you do?
Butt in at the most inappropriate times?
I was kind of hoping you'd do that.
I'm sorry.
