Hwarang: don't worry... it's just a comedy (Complete)

Act I: scene 1

King's bedroom

Dansae Here is your breakfast your majesty, if there's something I may do for you...

Jidwi Thank you Dansae'ssi, could you please call Ah ro? I need to talk with her about some... issues

Dansae I'll do it right now your majesty

Dansae goes out of the room looking for Ahro, when he finds her they come back to the king

Ahro Goodmorning your majesty, what may I do for you?

Jidwi You know Sunwoo very well so I think that you know if he's actually stupid or if he's only acting

Ahro Well, I know that Sunwoo needs... a clear statement to understand things so

Jidwi Clear statement? Last night I said him if he wanted to sleep with me and he answered "no thanks this bed is too small for two people" and smiled! Does he hate me?

Ahro He doesn't hate you... he was probably

A noise from the guards' room annoys the king

Jidwi I don't ask you to quit Dansae but could you avoid kissing your beloved one practically next to your king?... for God's  sake...

Kangsung We aren't kissing actually...

Dansae Are you dumb? I'm really sorry your majesty"

The noise stops

Jidwi So...what were you talking about?

Ahro I was saying that you need to be clear, direct.

Jidwi Mh...Ahro... where's Sunwoo at the moment?

Ahro He is training the hwarangs your majesty. Do you want me to talk to him about our conversation?

Jidwi No, you said that I should be clear... go directly to the point...

Ahro's eyes widen

Ahro I... I don't think that would be a good Idea... in front of the Hwarangs...

She's visibly worried

Jidwi Oh... that's a great idea...

Ahro Jidwi... no

Jidwi jidwi yes

Ahro Please...

Jidwi DANSAE, prepare to carry a bed in the courtyard... I have a sweet surprise for master Sunwoo

No answer

Jidwi Dansae?

Still silent

Jidwi DANSAE

Dansae arrives, his hair messed up and his dress is wrongly tied

Dansae yes your majesty?

Jidwi ...

Kangsung Did you said him that we used the portable bed?

Dansae ...

Jidwi ...

Dansae ...I assure you that it's... it's clean your majesty...

Dansae is visibly worried

Jidwi I hope... I really hope this if you want to preserve your life.

Kangsung eventually enters the bedroom

Kangsung Goodmorning your majesty, I hope you slept well.

Jidwi Kangsung... I'm really touched to see you so worried about your king... however I believe that you should be even more worried to keep your head on your neck

Kangsung I really don't understand your majesty, I'm just a worried subj...

Jidwi GO AWAY OR I'LL KILL YOU

Kangsung  Yup
