Filled with apologies - )) ... What should we do? We don't have much spare either.
이여주
... Ah, what should I do about this... I have to take that...
정호석
While contemplating - )) ...
정호석
Let's go together to the basement warehouse... I'll let you in.
정호석
However, we are not just giving it to you for free.
정호석
As if you have a story behind it - )) Please lend a hand for us someday.
정호석
Because you are the most powerful among the neighboring empires, no, perhaps the most powerful among the empires currently in the country.
이여주
*Smile* Thank you for your kind words.
김태형
I will attend to you, Your Majesty.

Thump thump thump - ))
Relying only on the occasional lamps in the darkness, I cautiously descend the stairs where I cannot see an inch ahead. Inside the dark room, it is silent with no voices, yet four footsteps echo with a loud thumping.

As they reached the end, a bright light was leaking from the door, and their eyes, which had adjusted to the darkness, were blinded by the bright light and closed involuntarily; Hoseok gently pulled Seungwan by the shoulder, and Taehyung also gently pulled Yeoju by the shoulder.
When I first walked in, it looked just like any other kitchen. However, the only difference was the absence of ingredients... Instead, there were brown flower pots, a lamp, a watering can... and perhaps the materials needed to make Maeruten?
정호석
... It was a clean place, even though it was a bit dirty.
정호석
Until last year, production was active and there were many workers...
정호석
... all the workers died after a flu outbreak occurred from the end of last year to the beginning of this year.
정호석
So, we are currently looking for new workers, but... it is not easy.
정호석
... Would this one remaining Maejureuten be enough for you?
이여주
Yes, that is enough. When I finish my work in this Maejureuten and return, we will definitely form a strong bond.
이여주
We will send thousands of workers from our empire to make weekly rutons.
이여주
We'll take care of the workspace. It's a bit cramped right now... We'll get a studio large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
정호석
Eyes flashing - )) Are you serious?... Why would you go to such lengths for us...
이여주
Smiling - )) ... That is,,,

이여주
I apologize for wasting your valuable time. Let's definitely meet again next time. Again, again.
정호석
"Smiling - )) No, today and yesterday, the Empress and I are learning good things."
정호석
Please keep your promise, and let's meet again after you succeed in your work.
정호석
Well then, goodbye...
김태형
*Bow* - )) ... May your empire be peaceful...
김태형
Your Majesty, I will escort you on your way.
이여주
Yes, thank you.
