The King has fallen for me...?
I am Yi Hwan, the King of Joseon. If there is one thing I lack, it is
an heir.
I know better than anyone how crucial an heir is for a King.
My ministers talk of marriage incessantly, and the chatter about finding a suitable match never ends.
However, I have no desire to force a marriage with someone I do not care for just to produce an heir.
At the very least, I want a bond formed out of mutual love.
To be with someone I love, to build a family with them, and then naturally welcome an heir.
That is what I truly desire.

While walking through the marketplace among the crowds, I bumped shoulders with someone.

I stopped walking reflexively. And the moment I raised my head to look at the other person, strangely, the surrounding noise seemed to fade away. I couldn't take my eyes off the person standing before me.
It's someone I've never seen before. We only bumped into each other for a moment. But my heart is racing strangely.
Wait...? Why... is my heart beating like this?
I found myself staring at that person for a long time without realizing it. I've never felt this way before.
Could this be— the love I've been searching for so desperately?
