Holy hell. The sheer tragedy in this episode.1. Lee Gyum's father was killed for accusation of treason. And his body was taken to the public for it to be ripped apart by several horses and the kid stumbled into it. Damn.2. His mother was walked in the public as a doomed prisoner and he was told to throw stones at her and did so to hide the truth about his real identity.3. Young Bong Soon brother who may have gotten killed. And she luckily was saved by the military officer who chased them down. That man gave her to be taken care by a lady but she was listening through the lady conversation saying she'll be sold to a dying old man for the tale of increased vitality. WTAF. Fckin disgusting.4. Luckily young Bong Soon was smart not to simply follow the lady and instead followed the ahjussi who saved her. Later on we saw they grew up as father-daughter.//The young Bong Soon, i was so blown away by her acting. The way she cried touched me. She's no less cute visually compared to Kim Yoo Jung who's playing young Eun Chae who's a noble descendant. She's also in Extracurricular as adult actress, i might watch that drama for her LOL.She must have a bright future ahead of her. So young and so talented!!!

Pretty good...but I can't bare seeing this happen..it's too much for a child :( Poor Junki and the kids at the end tortured him too :(

The torture that Geom goes thru in this episode is unimaginable. I as an adult would probably have lost my mind. I don't see how a nine year old could possibly endure the trauma that he went thru.

This episode continues the story of childhood.
Every historical Korean drama I've watched makes me wonder at the brutality of the social structure they show. The evil characters are so many and 'evil', and the punishments/judgements are inhumane to the point of being absurd. Every next person is being killed, labelled a traitor and tortured to death and so on at somebody's whim or fancy. I can't help but think - If this is all true, it must have been torture to just live in those times.
