You are just a group of shameless thieves 너희는 그저 파렴치한 도적떼일 뿐이다 - Mr. Queen 철인왕후 (Take 2) S2E5

You are just a group of shameless thieves 너희는 그저 파렴치한 도적떼일 뿐이다 - Mr. Queen 철인왕후 (Take 2)

By far, Mr. Queen is my favorite historical drama and at the same time my favorite comedy K-drama. Also, the longest K-drama monologue I have done so far is in this episode. It's the monologue that resonated with me the most. I think I'd keep the things I've learned from this drama for quite a long time. There are SOME SPOILERS in this episode. It'd be best to watch the drama before you listen to this episode, if that's your thing.
