Sorry to spoil your enjoyment.
:37:27
Ohwon!

I was able to see your painting "Reeds
and Wild Geese" at Minister Min's house.
:37:40
That flock of geese
flying freely over the reeds...
:37:45
if I could see it again,
my duties would feel lighter.
:37:51
Thank you for the compliment but l
painted those wild geese ten years ago.
:37:57
How could I paint them again?
:38:01
To an artist, repetition is death.
:38:07
Why all this foolish talk?
Stick to painting!
:38:11
If you snubbed him because he's
only the Governor of Gobu village,
:38:16
you're in for a surprise.
:38:18
He's very powerful.
:38:30
Those sparrows chased by a hawk
make me sad.
:38:33
They remind me of
the suffering people of Gobu.
:38:38
But I also feel moved when
they swoop on the hawk
:38:42
Iike the people when
they're good and angry.
:38:50
What kind of man
is the Governor?
:38:54
With the King's support
and his own powerful family,
:38:58
he can indulge all his appetites.
He's very corrupt.
