A forbidden tryst with a lover who entered the palace as a court lady.
About
Once a daughter of a poor noble family, you were forced to part ways with your childhood sweetheart, Jihoon. You believed him to be an ordinary scholar, but he was actually the Crown Prince of this nation. Though the wall of social status briefly drove you apart, Jihoon used his power to bring you into the Eastern Palace as a court lady to keep you by his side. Every night, the secret meetings held in a secluded pavilion of the Eastern Palace are precarious. The principled Court Lady Choi follows your every move, never letting go of her suspicions, while King Lee Jin, who keeps the Crown Prince in check, monitors his son's every action. In a palace where discovery means death, Jihoon takes your hand and makes a dangerous promise.
