The Three Musketeers (2014)

Episodes 5&6

삼총사 – Samchongsa

Things are starting to kick off! After ordering the death of Yong Gol Dae, the King retreats back to his palace, leaving Crowned Prince Sohyeon to take care of the mess with his loyal bodyguards and Dal Hyang. Yet again, poor Dal Hyang has had a really bad day. He’s been battered, bruised, poisoned and beaten up, but he preserves and carries on even after all that. The only thing is, it’s about to get worse.

With the order to kill Yong Gol Dae, Park Dal Hyang is off, close to firing off a kill shot when there is interference from an unlikely source. Waking up back at his room, he hurries to relay the message to the Crowned Prince only to run into his first love, causing an even greater strain on the relationship between himself and Sohyeon. Having found out where Yong Gol Dae is, he heads towards it when a piece of advice given to Dal Hyang from Sohyeon comes back to bite him in the butt. And then to top it off, they clash, literally. I can totally understand where both sides are coming from with this, Dal Hyang still loves Yoon Seo but he’s doing the honourable thing by burying his feelings but he wants to be trusted by Sohyeon who seems to be pushing him away due to the past relationship he had with Yoon Seo. I feel sorry for them both! Episode five really did not disappoint and episode 6 holds so much promise!

Episode 6 starts right back up with the action and the sudden appearance of Yoon Seo to try and stop the fighting. Both sides are injured and things are getting tense between everyone. Seung Po is the comic relief again as you think things begin to calm down, but alas. It does not last. The Crown Prince ties up Dal Hyang in the same study hall as none other than Yong Gol Dae while he Sohyeon is tended to by his wife. Yoon Seo is still pressing him for an answer but he refuses to give in to her before heading into another duel with Dal Hyang.

After losing the duel, the Crowned Prince offers him a deal before releasing him. With a heavy heart Dal Hyang heads out from the palace, determined on leaving Hanyang and returning home. However, just as he is about to leave, he stumbles upon the traitor from the palace but it is too late. She’s dead and Yong Gol Dae is trapped within the Crowned Prince’s library.

Things are heating up as the politics are getting dirtier and the likelihood of Kim Ja Jeom revealing to the King of his own son’s plans is growing closer. With no other choice Sohyeon go to him. Meanwhile, Dal Hyang comes across Mi Ryeong and passes on a message, she wants to meet the Crowned Prince and help him dispatch of Kim Ja Jeom. Joseon is growing more dangerous by the moment and its up to Dal Hyang and the Samchongsa to save it.
