How I Live in Joseon
01


hello?

Well, what should I say?

ha ha ha...

Big, big...

Hello, my name is Kim Seok-jin.

He is the only son of the Kim family, the most prestigious family in Hanyang.

I am a student studying to pass the civil service exam.


김석진
ha...


민윤기
Why are you sighing so much?


김석진
Studying is just hard, and it doesn't stick in my head.


민윤기
Should I tell you why?


김석진
You're going to say it's because I'm not smart enough


민윤기
No, I'm not ignorant


민윤기
Strictly speaking, it's not about being ignorant, it's about being simple.


김석진
Simple...


민윤기
And you go out to the market every other day


민윤기
So, will you be able to study well?


김석진
Is that so..?


김석진
But there's nothing more fun than going out to the market


민윤기
It'll be fun because I'm busy going and looking for a good-looking guy.


김석진
hey!


민윤기
Oh, mistake


김석진
I told you to watch your mouth...


민윤기
Okay, okay~


김석진
after...

Fortunately, it seems like no one heard.

Anyway, Min Yoongi...

I am...

So, Kim Seok-jin, the only son of the Kim family

I like men

man....

There is no greater sin than not being able to have children and thus destroying the family line.

My father, who has no other child than me...

If my father finds out about this

I'll probably get kicked out

No, maybe I'll die

Or maybe they'll force you into marriage

Whatever happens, my life is going to be ruined anyway

I will keep it a secret even if I die

아버지
Seok Jin-ah


김석진
It's a surprise...


김석진
Oh, is your father here?

아버지
okay..


김석진
What happened?


김석진
You don't look well...

아버지
.......


김석진
What's going on?

아버지
I just came back from talking to your uncle.

아버지
I was preparing for the civil service exam and taking a quick breath of fresh air.

아버지
How about leaving home and staying in a separate building?


김석진
A separate building?


김석진
Am I the only one going?

아버지
Yes, take a few of your servants and stay there.


김석진
all right

아버지
I believe I can do it on my own


김석진
Don't worry, I'll study hard too.

아버지
Yeah, pack your bags in advance.


김석진
I'm going to fight right now!

Hey..

This can't be happening

How could something like this be so dreamlike...

I'm really sorry, Dad, but I'm looking for some good-looking guys.

father..

Please forgive this poor son.
