Cho Jae-hyun never withdrew his intentions.

On the final episode of the KBS 1TV "Jeong Do-jeon", Lee Bang-won (Ahn Jae-mo) told Jeong Do-jeon (Cho Jae-hyun), "Take back what you said about politics. Then I will accept everything you say. If you lose your pride then you can achieve great work. Isn't this a good chance for someone like you?"

Jeong Do-jeon replied, "This isn't because of pride. Do you know what they call all the Jeong's, the Cho's, the Choi's, the Kang's and Park's? They call us 'the people'".

"The king is brought by the skies but the king's aid is created by the people. A country ruled by the aid is closer, more beneficial and safer. The people own the country. The king is merely a tool for the people. This is why I can't be your slave".

Lee Bang-won sneered at Jeong Do-jeon. Jeong Do-jeon was just a dangerous character who had to be killed when the time came. In the end, Lee Bang-won killed Jeong Do-jeon whom his father Lee Seong-gye (Yoo Dong-geun) respected and followed.
