Turn the Hourglass (free serial)
05⏳


wow

It's really not fun


여주은
So why should I watch such a boring show?


권순영
Well, it's the emperor's schedule to see this performance.


여주은
No, what I'm saying is, why should I follow your schedule?


권순영
That's because you are the next empress.


여주은
So why are you deciding that on your own?


권순영
That's because I am the emperor, this is my country, and in my country, the emperor's word is law.


여주은
Oh, he really is a kid who doesn't understand.


권순영
No, why is your country's language so harsh?


여주은
Are my words harsh? Have I not used harsh language yet? We have harsher curses in our country!


여주은
Can you show me some harsh words?


권순영
Whoa whoa calm down lol


여주은
By the way, when will this boring show end?

ㆍㆍㆍ


문준휘
How was the show?


여주은
Yeah, I'm so bored I'm dying from sleep


부승관
Dog...bored? What does that mean?


여주은
Yeah, I mean I'm so bored I could die.


부승관
Wow, that performance was done by a theater company managed by Jihoon hyung.


이지훈
..^^


여주은
Ah..oh really? Somehow~ the performance was so elegant and it felt like I was in a dream~haha


이지훈
Didn't you really go to dreamland?


여주은
I almost went because it was so amazing~


권순영
You were asleep lol


여주은
Shh! Shhh!!!


여주은
This is what I've been thinking about! (with my mouth)


권순영
Is that the harsh curse of your country?


여주은
Oh, no? This is just medicine, there are worse ones, right?


권순영
I really want to see it later if I get the chance


여주은
I ate everything, so I'll wake up first?


여주은
Eat well and sleep well


최한솔
Doesn't he seem a bit cheap every time I see him?


권순영
That's it!


최승철
It's a weakness as an empress.


권순영
It's the charm of being an empress~


이석민
Are you really going to keep Jooeun here?


이석민
Sister, you must have left a lot of things behind in your world and there must be a lot of things you miss.


이석민
Are you going to keep me here?


홍지수
Besides, if you really make Yeo Ju-eun the empress, she has to stay here for the rest of her life.


홍지수
Does he love you that much?


권순영
…


여주은
Wow, I'm so tired I could die!


여주은
I want to go home... my cozy home...


여주은
under..

Crack- Crack-


유설아
See you here again?


여주은
Ah..yes..haha


유설아
I'm looking for something right now


유설아
I think you know where it is, could you help me?


여주은
What is it?


유설아
Where is the hourglass?


유설아
Since His Majesty loves you, he must have told you.


여주은
!


여주은
N, yes? I don't know?

What the... why is that woman looking for an hourglass?

That's the palace's treasure and no one can touch it.

That woman is, in conclusion, a woman who hates me and wants to kill me.

To be exact, I think I'm confusing myself with my doppelganger from this world.

My doppelganger, Jeong Ga-eul, said she died, so I couldn't help but mistake her for me.

But if I tell people that I'm from another world, won't this country be in danger?


유설아
Don't you know? It's okay if you don't know.


유설아
I'm glad you don't know lol


유설아
I'm definitely going to get my hands on it and start the 100 Years War again, which happened 1000 years ago.


유설아
I won't be able to become an empress anyway


유설아
Wouldn't starting that war be the greatest revenge I can take on you and the emperor? lol


여주은
Are you getting angry when I tell you to look at it?


여주은
Do you think I'll just leave it like that?


여주은
Honestly, I tried my best not to care whether you threatened me or anything in the future.


여주은
But you're going to rekindle the Hundred Years' War that happened 1000 years ago because of the hourglass?


여주은
Even if I endure everything, I can't stand things that disturb world peace, right?


여주은
Be moderately picky


유설아
Yeah, that's how it should be, your true nature is coming out, Jeong Ga-eul, no, Yeo Ju-eun

ㆍㆍㆍ


여주은
Haha.. what was that woman's name? Was it Yuseol?


여주은
Mr. Woo, I'm really pissed off!!


여주은
What, you want to start a war again?


권순영
What are you doing


여주은
Uh, yeah? What are you going to do in the library? Read a book.


권순영
Yeah.. haha


여주은
But why do you have such a sad expression?


권순영
Do I look sad? I was such a selfish person.


여주은
?



권순영
Swish- (takes out an hourglass)


여주은
A, that's


권순영
If you want, I'll send you back to your world


권순영
This is your last chance


여주은
…


(silence)


여주은
..Please come to Korea on October 3, 2021


권순영
I guess I'm going


권순영
Well... I understand you miss your world too.

Tick-tock (the sound of a clock turning)

Woohoo-

Am I really going?

That's what you wanted so badly...

But why does my heart feel so heavy?







여주은
This is...my house..? Am I really back home??


여주은
So now... I can never see the Florentine Empire again...

I miss you strangely

You shouldn't miss it in the first place

Why am I like this..?

Did you leave anything behind in the Florentine Empire?

Why do I miss that place..?

Why does Kwon Soon-young come to mind among these?

And why...



여주은
Are you crying?
