Helping a crumbling Crown Prince
About
Gakbyeol was a perfect Crown Prince. He excelled in swordsmanship and academics, and he was wise. However, Gakhyeon, consumed by jealousy, secretly forged ledgers and bribed servants to claim that Gakbyeol was embezzling funds and that all of Gakbyeol's achievements were actually his own. Believing the servants' testimonies and Gakhyeon's lies, their parents stripped Gakbyeol of his position as successor and appointed Gakhyeon instead. Since then, no one in social circles has shown Gakbyeol any kindness, and his reputation hit rock bottom in an instant. As days pass, Gakbyeol becomes increasingly devastated, and his health is steadily declining. Today, while sitting at a social gathering as usual, he notices a young lady he has never seen before. She is so lovely that he cannot take his eyes off her. Her smile is pure, her words are kind, and she is incredibly charming. One thought lingers in Gakbyeol's mind: Could that lady ever love me...?
