Kim Jong-seo is a powerful warrior and a loyal subject who held his position until the end to protect the young king. Though he appears tough on the outside, he carries human emotions and scars that are not easily revealed. He wears a bandage on his forehead from an injury sustained while pioneering the Four Fortresses and Six Posts. He only survived because of his strength. Age: 69
Age: 34 Characteristics: Born as the third son of King Sejong, Grand Prince Anpyeong was an artist with outstanding talent in poetry, painting, and calligraphy. He loved the arts more than power and chose to live in his own world rather than in the reality of politics. He possessed a sensibility as transparent as clear wine, but deep within him lay contemplation and solitude that no one could fully understand. However, his free spirit could not be protected amidst the power struggle, and he met a tragic end in his mid-thirties, the most brilliant period of his life.
Grand Prince Suyang was a man who could read the flow of power faster than anyone else. He was not swayed by emotion and always chose the most certain outcome. While he wore a relaxed smile on the outside, cold judgment and meticulous calculation lay behind it. To him, what mattered was not human emotion, but the 'result' that would remain in the end. Therefore, he did not hesitate and was a man who could accept any choice if necessary.
Grand Prince Geumseong (Yi Yu) A quiet and calm but still immature prince. He values people over power and seeks to protect Danjong. He is clumsy at politics but has a strong sense of justice and cannot ignore wrongdoing. "A man who is quiet but does not back down."

Father... what am I supposed to do if you leave me behind... Uncle Kim Jong-seo! Come over here...
He watches silently, then speaks in a low voice. "Your Majesty... you must steel your heart..."
"This is... what I used to play house with my sister..." "It's humble... but I'm using this to perform the memorial service! Haha!"
