Nok-Du and Dong-Ju become close. Nok-Du helps out Dong-Ju when she is having a hard time because of her injured hands. Dong-Ju says that she wants to treat Nok-Du like an older sister. Nok-Du happens to see a shaman and widows performing a religious ceremony, and he thinks that the widows are scheming something.

Dong-Ju keeps being reminded of her childhood and family after she came to Hanyang. She visits the house she used to live when she was a child. That's when she runs into Yul-Mu. And Nok-Du happens to watch them have a chat from afar. Nok-Du manages to complete his mission, but he hears that the real Lady Kim and her servant got caught.

Nok-Du is curious about who Dong-Ju likes. He asks her who it is, but she never tells him. Nok-Du decides to tell Dong-Ju his feelings for her, but Dong-Ju tries to keep her distance from Nok-Du.

Nok-Du meets Hwang-Tae at Yul-Mu's house. Nok-Du insists that he and Hwang-Tae should hurry and leave the place, but Hwang-Tae refuses. Instead, Hwang-Tae tells Nok-Du a big secret.
