After hearing the full truth from Mapung, Jeongi breaks down in tears before Mun Saseung, who is left stunned and shaken. Jeongi then pleads with Gwanghae to delay Gangcheon's arrest just a little longer. Confronting Gangcheon herself, Jeongi is devastated once more when he coldly declares that Yukdo is the only bloodline he acknowledges. Claiming he wishes to atone, Gangcheon summons Jeongi to Euldam's grave.
To protect Jeongi, Gwanghae arranges for a personal guard to stay by her side. When pigments needed for overglaze painting run short, Mun Saseung turns to Hwa-ryeong for supplies—drawing Gangcheon straight to her. Thanks to Jeongi's foresight in testing Gangcheon's scheme in advance, Mun Saseung successfully completes the tribute porcelain. Enraged by his failure, Gangcheon orders Mapung to kill Jeongi.
Mun Saseung is appointed as the new nangcheong of the Bunwon, and Jeongi becomes the first female master potter in Joseon history. Seeing Jeongi clad in her official potter's robes, Gwanghae smiles with pride and gifts her the workshop once used by Euldam. Reduced to desperation, Gangcheon and Yukdo beg Mun Saseung to allow them to remain at the Bunwon. Elsewhere, at the request of a Japanese merchant, Hwa-ryeong summons Jeongi—hinting at new trials yet to come.
Jeongi confronts Gangcheon, demanding that he reveal the truth about Euldam, but his shameless willingness to offer a false confession only fuels her anger. Gwanghae vows before King Seonjo to uncover not only the truth behind the current 사건 but also the events of the previous nangcheong competition. A royal order is issued for Yukdo's execution, and a grief-stricken Gangcheon kneels before the palace gates in penitence.
As Jeongi and Yukdo face off in a decisive competition, all eyes at the Bunwon are fixed on the outcome. Thrilled at the prospect of becoming nangcheong, Yukdo is confident of victory. Jeongi asks Hwa-ryeong to procure the white clay needed for the contest, while Hwa-ryeong urges Yukdo to defeat Jeongi at all costs. When the medicine bowls are completed, Jeongi and Yukdo anxiously await Prince Shinseong's judgment—until the prince suddenly collapses after drinking from the bowl.
Leaving her audience with Inbin, Jeongi runs into Gangcheon and Yukdo at the palace. When King Seonjo refers to Euldam as a traitor, Jeongi is left on edge. Together with Taedo, she devises a plan to ensnare Gangcheon. Later, Gwanghae returns the bowl Jeongi once gave to Son Haengsu. Impressed by Jeongi's skill, Inbin requests that if Jeongi crafts a medicine bowl that fully satisfies Prince Shinseong, she be officially appointed a master potter.
King Seonjo orders Gwanghae, Imhae, and Shinseong to find a way to end the people's widespread stomach illness, prompting Gwanghae to disguise himself and investigate in secret. While surveying the village, he unexpectedly encounters Jeongi, who is making and distributing bowls to the villagers. Jeongi carefully presents a vessel she crafted especially for Gwanghae. Soon, a royal decree is issued for the Bunwon to produce pottery for the common people, and Gwanghae sets out to find Jeongi.
Claiming she has no lingering attachment, Jeongi leaves the Bunwon behind, and Gwanghae watches her go in hollow disbelief. After returning to her former home, Jeongi and Taedo are suddenly seized by military officers, who drag Taedo away. Gwanghae pleads with Inbin to release him, insisting that Taedo once served as his personal guard. Awakened by her mother Yeonok's voice, Jeongi rises and walks toward the kiln…
Startled by the sound of vases shattering inside the kiln, Jeongi peers inside and suddenly collapses. Hearing that Jeongi had been guarding the kiln alone, Gwanghae turns pale and desperately searches for her. Taedo watches over the unconscious Jeongi with quiet anguish. Seeing Jeongi injured, her eyesight damaged, Gwanghae is overcome with pain—yet Jeongi asks only to be allowed back into the Bunwon.
Upon discovering that Jeongi is Euldam's daughter, Gangcheon expels her from the Bunwon workshop. In front of everyone, Mun Saseung kneels and begs Gangcheon to spare her. When Hwa-ryeong declares that she will live solely to defeat Jeongi, Taedo is left shaken. Soon after, Jeongi is ordered to craft a porcelain vase as a birthday gift for Royal Consort Inbin, and Gwanghae promises to support her with everything he has.
As Jeongi explains the shape of a wine cup, Gwanghae finds his gaze drawn to her lips and abruptly excuses himself, flustered by his own reaction. Later, Gangcheon is stunned to discover Euldam's pottery at the merchant guild and asks Hwa-ryeong whether Jeongi is truly Euldam's daughter. Taedo quietly observes Jeongi and Gwanghae sitting side by side before the kiln. On the day of the Giroyeon banquet, Jeongi grows increasingly anxious when the vessels fail to arrive at the hall.
Unable to bring herself to shatter Euldam's vessel, Jeongi trembles before Gangcheon until Gwanghae arrives to intervene. Determined to prove himself superior to Mun Saseung, Yukdo demands a chance from Gangcheon. Jeongi agrees to assist Mun Saseung in crafting the ceremonial vessels for the Giroyeon banquet. Watching Gwanghae's special concern for Jeongi, Taedo questions why she matters to him so deeply.
After discovering that Jeongi is a woman, Gwanghae urges her to flee at once. Instead, Jeongi asks for just ten days—enough time to complete the celadon teacups for Yukdo. Hearing rumors that Jeongi and Gwanghae share more than a simple connection, Imhae devises a scheme and locks the two of them together in a single room.
When Jeongi vows to step forward to clear Gwanghae's name, Taedo grows increasingly frustrated. Fearing that his own fate may once again bring injustice upon innocent people, Gwanghae sends Jeongi away. Meanwhile, Hwa-ryeong urges Jeongi to finally let go of Taedo.
Mistaking it for Gwanghae's test, Jeongi sneaks into the Bunwon storeroom to choose pottery, only to be caught red-handed by Gangcheon. While confined, she finally realizes that the man she believed to be Gwanghae was actually someone else. As Jeongi tearfully confesses all the wrongs she has committed against him, Gwanghae listens with a quiet smile.
Reunited at last, Jeongi and Taedo recognize each other and share all that has happened. Taedo reluctantly lets Jeongi go as she sets her sights on the Bunwon workshop. Entering the Gongchogun selection exam, Jeongi is arrested and thrown into jail after being accused of attempting to cut down palace trees while searching for firewood. Desperate, she pleads with Gwanghae for help, insisting that she must become a master potter no matter what.
Jeongi accuses Gwanghae of stealing her jade belt, and as she tries to flee and leave him behind, she is seized once again by Gwanghae. Forced to wander with their wrists bound together, the two soon find themselves in grave danger. As punishment for losing the royal jade belt, Gwanghae is assigned as deputy director under the chief artisan Shinseong. Meanwhile, Jeongi sets out on a journey to enter the Bunwon pottery workshop…
Jeongi clings to Euldam, sobbing and begging him not to go, while the wounded Taedo fumes in frustration after seeing an assassin vanish into the darkness. Seeking out Hwa-ryeong, Jeongi travels to the merchant guild, where she comes face to face with Gangcheon. She boldly asks whether he will apologize for humiliating Euldam once she becomes the greatest master potter in Joseon.
