Meanwhile, Seo In, now a storyteller named Chon Seung Hwi, reappears before Goodeoki. Can the two recognize each other under their new names?

Tae Young accuses the Baek Do Gwang family of killing Baekyi, but finds herself up against their claims of innocence as they frame Mak Sim. In her desperation, Tae Young scales the government office's wall, only to come face-to-face with Yun Gyeom, who looks identical to Seung Hwi.
