Дорама сказка о нокду

Побережье небольшого острова неподалеку от берегов Кореи. Молодой человек (Нок-ту) занимается подводной рыбалкой. Он нанизывает на гарпун очередную рыбину, выныривает на поверхность, бредет по мелководью к берегу. Ему призывно машет рукой маленькая девочка: вот и мой муженек появился! Нок-ту ворчит себе под нос: опять я муженек.

Девочка готовит на костре выловленных Нок-ту моллюсков, поедает их. Нок-ту говорит ей, что не сможет на ней жениться: понимаешь, мне надо будет покинуть наш остров, у меня есть кое-какие дела. Девочка сердится: но ведь отец сказал, что мы поженимся! Она хватает Нок-ту за руку. Тот с трудом разжимает пальцы разъяренного ребенка, рассматривает оставшиеся от захвата следы на руке: и откуда в тебе такая силища?

На берегу появляется отец девочки, он отхлебывает из баклажки спиртное, его ноги заплетаются. Девочка сообщает отцу о том, что Нок-ту отказывается на ней жениться. Нок-ту бормочет извинения, говорит о том, что его «невеста» еще слишком мала. Так что я пока не могу на ней жениться, учитель! Учитель с пьяной ухмылкой на лице говорит, что Нок-ту – самый юный жених на острове. Так что вы просто идеальная парочка.

На берег выбегает женщина, она кричит, что в доме у Нок-ту случилось несчастье.

Нок-ту бежит к своему дому. Он видит, что во дворе происходит настоящее сражение. Его отец с палкой в руках пытается отбить нападение группы вооруженных мечами людей. Все они облачены в красные одежды, лица закрыты повязками. Брат Нок-ту лежит, привалившись к стене дома, он держится за бок, откуда сочится кровь.

Нок-ту вступает в схватку с убийцами. Он обезоруживает одного из нападавших, хватает его меч и одного за другим выводит из строя людей в красном. Последнего оставшегося в живых бойца Нок-ту ранит в ногу. Он срывает с его лица повязку и убеждается, что перед ним молодая женщина. Воспользовавшись секундным замешательством Нок-ту, женщина в красном убегает.

Во двор заходит учитель Нок-ту. Он осматривает рану его брата, говорит, что она не представляет опасности для жизни. Нок-ту обращается к отцу: кто эти люди? Почему они нас преследуют? Отец говорит Нок-ту, что им надо бежать с острова. Нок-ту возражает: мы так и будем бегать? Но они снова нас найдут. Отец говорит, что вины Нок-ту в том, что произошло сегодня, нет. Нок-ту сомневается: нет, наверное, все дело во мне. Я уеду с острова, разыщу того, кто направляет к нам наемных убийц, выясню, что ему от нас надо. Нок-ту обращается к учителю: позаботьтесь о моем отце и брате. Учитель говорит, что на время отсутствия Нок-ту на острове поселит его отца и брата у себя в доме.

По улице города Ханянь несутся верхом на лошадях вооруженные стражники. Они расчищают проезжую часть от заполнивших ее людей: дорогу, разойдись! Дорогу королю! Люди разбегаются в разные стороны.

По улице перемещается королевский кортеж: придворные несут паланкин, на котором восседает правитель. Вдоль дороги выстроены вооруженные стражники. Следом за паланкином идут придворные, музыканты издают пронзительные звуки, извлекаемые из медных труб.

Из переулка за процессией наблюдает девушка в мужском наряде. Она воображает, что извлекает из сумки складной лук и стрелу, раскладывает лук, натягивает тетиву, накладывает стрелу, стреляет в короля.

Девушка-мальчик извлекает из сумки складной лук и стрелу. В этот момент на нее налетает проходящий мимо Нок-ту, стрела и лук падают на землю. Нок-ту извиняется за свою неловкость. Девушка-мальчик упрекает его за это. Нок-ту говорит, что «парень» мог быть и повнимательней. Лучница снова смотрит в сторону королевской процессии и понимает, что момент для покушения уже упущен.

Дорогу кавалькаде преграждает пожилой мужчина в скромной одежде. Он бросает камень и попадает им в короля. Старик обрушивается на монарха с гневной инвективой, он обвиняет правителя в алчности и наплевательском отношении к нуждам простого народа. Для того, чтобы построить себе дворец, ты разрушаешь наши дома. Твои люди убили моего сына и внука. Ты никакой не король!

Стражники хватают старика. Король говорит приближенным, что у бунтовщика должны быть пособники. Обыщите все вокруг, хватайте всех мало-мальски подозрительных людей. Начинается облава, стражники хватают всех попавшихся под руку и тащат в тюрьму. Один из стражников находит стрелу, которую оборонила лучница. Эта находка подтверждает мнение короля о том, что у террориста-камнеметателя были сообщники.

Нок-ту тоже подает в руки стражников. Его отправляют в тюрьму и помещают в камеру вместе с другими подозреваемыми. В этой же камере находится и девушка-мальчик. Нок-ту и «парень» вспоминают старые обиды, начинают ссориться. Нок-ту удивлен тем, что низкорослый «парень» говорит с ним, как с несмышленышем. Да я же старше тебя. И сколько тебе лет? Я родился в год змеи. Девушка-мальчик заявляет, что в год рождения оппонента он(а) уже читал(а) Конфуция.

Переодетая девица замечает, что нижняя часть деревянной решетки, отделяющей камеру от коридора, повреждена. Дождавшись, когда сокамерники и стражник в коридоре заснут, она выбивает ногой часть решетки и пытается выбраться в образовавшееся отверстие из камеры. Но ей это не удается, пытаясь протиснуть в отверстие плечи, белянка застревает. За ней наблюдает проснувшийся Нок-ту. И чего ты вытворяешь? Если ты ни в чем не виноват – утром тебя отпустят. Но если тебя поймают при попытке к бегству – можешь попрощаться с головой. Травести умоляет Нок-ту спасти ее. Тот требует, чтобы «парень» повторил просьбу в более вежливой форме. Девица выдавливает из себя «пожалуйста», Нок-ту затаскивает ее за ноги обратно в камеру.

Нок-ту наблюдает за тем, как девушка-мальчик постанывает во сне. И как такой хилый парень пытался сбежать? Он ложится рядом с незадачливой беглянкой, укрывает ее полой своей одежды. Утром Нок-ту и травести, обнаружив нежеланное соседство, отталкивают друг друга.

Заключенных выводят в тюремный двор. Там проводятся допросы с применением пыток. Дознаватель требует, чтобы травести назвала свое имя, место постоянного жительства, цель пребывания в городе. Девушка-мальчик лепечет что-то невнятное и замолкает. К ее горлу стражник подносит обнаженный меч. Нок-ту обращается к дознавателю. Он требует, чтобы ему организовали встречу с королем. И что ты хочешь ему сказать? Нок-ту заявляет, что король действует крайне неразумно: зачем он пытает и казнит заведомо невиновных людей? С его стороны было бы гораздо умнее послать цветы на могилу сына и внука мятежного старика, выразить свои соболезнования его семье. Если он не желает это делать искренне – пусть хотя бы притворится добрым. И тогда народ проникнется к нему привязанностью.

Государь, который в это время проходит по дорожке за углом, слышит речи Нок-ту и, демонстрируя явное незнакомство с одноименной работой Макиавелли, соглашается с опередившими свое время популистскими рекомендациями: ладно, буду притворяться; но этого старика я все же не помилую.

Задержанных отпускают на свободу. Нок-ту обращается к травести: я тебя выручил, а поэтому ты должен угостить меня рисовым супом. Мальчик-девочка обвиняет Нок-ту в корысти и уходит от него, выразив на прощание надежду на то, что они никогда больше не встретятся.

Нок-ту приходит на постоялый двор. Он снимает на ночь комнату. Вечером к нему заходит хозяйка, она приносит Нок-ту еду: ее не стали есть постояльцы, которые уже съехали. Так что ешь и пей, денег я с тебя за это не возьму.

Нок-ту набрасывается на еду. Через некоторое время он вываливается из комнаты через окно. Согнувшись в три погибели и демонстрируя явные признаки отравления, Нок-ту выходит на улицу. За ним с ножом в руке, прихрамывая, крадется женщина в красном одеянии. К Нок-ту подходят ночные стражники, тот падает на землю. Один из стражников бежит за помощью. Женщина в красном возвращается на постоялый двор. Нок-ту тут же «оживает».

Хозяйка постоялого двора говорит, что выполнила все указания убийцы. Вы должны отдать мне обещанную плату. Женщина в красном достает нож и «расплачивается» с пособницей.

Нок-ту наблюдает за постоялым двором. Утром оттуда выходит женщина в красном. Нок-ту крадется за ней. Та идет через лес и заходит на территорию какой-то деревни. Нок-ту следует за ней. Он видит, что деревня населена исключительно женщинами. Они с удивление смотрят на пришельца. Звучат голоса: мужчина! Откуда он тут взялся? К Нок-ту подбегает команда крупногабаритных дам, они наносят ему несколько мощных ударов: говори, как ты попал в нашу деревню, в которой живут только вдовы!

Нок-ту вышвыривают из деревни. Однако ему удается найти женское платье, он переодевается и возвращается в деревню вдов. Ему рассказывают о том, что деревня была основана во время японского вторжения вдовами погибших на войне мужчин. Рядом с деревней находится дом, где готовят кисэн (корейские гейши). Нок-ту знакомится с его обитательницами, в том числе и с Дон Дон-чжу, той самой травести, которая хотела убить короля.

Вернувшись в деревню вдов, Нок-ту замечает там прихрамывающую женщину, которая заходит в помещение винокурни.

Обитательницы деревни приглашают Нок-ту на совместное купание, однако ему удается сохранить свою тайну.

Нок-ту поселяют в одной комнате с Дон-чжу, это создает массу деликатных ситуаций, связанных с отходом ко сну и переодеванием.

Тем временем по приказу короля по всей стране разыскивают отца Нок-ту, который когда-то был его другом и инсценировал свою смерть на войне.

А Нок-ту продолжает слежку за отрядом женщин-убийц.
