JEWEL IN THE PALACE EPISODE GUIDE

ep. 5-6:
They've all grown up. Jang-Geum is becoming an excellent cook but she still retains her wild nature, inobedience and energetic.

The princess is sick and doesnt eat for many days so the kitchen staff are stressing over trying to figure out something for her to eat. She refuses to eat anything they bring to her after a bite.
Geum-Young (Hong Ri Na) goes to talk to Jang-Geum (Lee Young Ae) who is making her fermented soybean pastes. Geum-Young tastes one of the samples and comments on how it doesn't stink like it usually does. Jang-Geum tells her its because she used sojoo (rice wine) to kill off the smell. Geum-Young then goes back to the kitchen and asks her aunt if she can make the next meal for the princess. She makes something and the princess eats the whole thing because she added the same ingredient Jang-Geum used to kill the smell, revealing that the princess was turned off by the smell of the food. The whole kitchen department gets rewarded and all the supervisors are praising Geum-Young, but Geum-Young mentions she was inspired by Jang-Geum's method.

There is a big celebration in the palace: the king's birthday. A precious gold bird from China was shipped to be used for the party and Geum-Young is told to guard the bird for a couple of days. She puts it in the cage but the cage door loosens and the bird is gone the next morning. Geum-Young begins to panic and decides to sneak outside of the palace to ask her relative if he can find another gold bird for her (it's against the palace rules for the girls to leave without permission). On her way out, she runs into Jang-Geum who offers help, so the two sneak out together. They go out and arrived at the relative's house but he's gone for a few days so Jang-Geum offers to make a trip to her uncle's (the funny guy who raised her after she was 8) to see if he can help since he's well-versed in imported goods. Therefore, they part and decide to meet the next morning. Jang-Geum finds a bird after a lot of trouble but on her way to the relatives to meet up with Geum-Young she runs into a group of people fighting and she decides to save the injured person (Min Jung-Ho a.k.a Ji Jin Hee ), so she gets to the relatives really late and Geum-Young is already gone, not because she wants to but her aunt found out about the incident and forced her to leave. They also found a gold bird.

Jang-Geum has to sneak back in the palace all by herself but the route she used to escape was sealed off so she is stuck outside the palace and gets caught by the guards who took her to the kitchen department. (the writer would like to thank Dramaok for providing this summery.)
