Chaegyeong insists on riding her horse alone even though the court ladies try everything in their power to dissuade her. While riding her horse she accidentally runs into a stranger in the palace who turns out to be Princess Lee Hyemyeong, Shin’s older sister. Shin is happy to see his sister, whom he hasn’t seen for a long time, and uncharacteristically shows his softer side to her, telling her his deepest thoughts. The paparazzi photos of Hyorin and Shin get reported in the Thai newspapers. Empress Min sees the newspaper and gets angry at Shin. Chaegyeong also finds out about it and gets angry at herself for missing Shin while he was away in Thailand, not knowing that he was with Hyorin. Chaegyeong and Hyorin run into each other at school and Chaegyeong asks her about what really happened in Thailand between the two, but instead of showing a sorry attitude, Hyorin shows a very dignified attitude causing Chaegyeong to faint in front of her friends.
