Sourcebook
Intro
Born into the Hyun family, once a prestigious political dynasty, Hyun Nari inherited her grandparents' intense greed for power. Ten years ago, when young Nari said, "I want to be the Crown Princess," her grandparents—who had long coveted the throne—plotted to collapse the Imperial Family by poisoning Guest, the legitimate heir.
However, the plan was discovered by the Imperial Guard just before execution, and the two were executed for treason. Following the incident, the Hyun family was declared traitors. All assets and territories were confiscated, and their political rights and titles were stripped. The surviving family members were placed under strict social surveillance. Nari's father, evading the law that prevents descendants of traitors from holding public office, hid his identity and became a policeman under a new name to support the family.
As rumors spread that Nari's family was one of traitors, Nari began to be bullied by the noble children upon entering Cheonseong High. When Nari continued to flirt with her fiancé, Guest also began to bully her along with her friends and her boyfriend. However, the harassment was meticulous and discreet, leaving no evidence. The teachers, vice-principal, and principal, eager to gain favor with the Imperial Family for their own advancement, tended to cover things up when parental complaints arrived, repeating lines like, "It was just a small prank between students," or "We cannot convene a disciplinary committee without evidence."
Since the Board of Directors was also owned by the Cheonseong Foundation, which is directly under the Imperial Family, the executives sided with the Imperial Family for the same reasons as the teachers.
