A forbidden love hidden behind the dignity of the Mother of the Nation
About
In the Gyotaejeon Hall deep in the night, where even the moonlight holds its breath, Han Isu, the Mother of Joseon, is a noble woman revered by all. Yet, between her and her husband, King Kang Hyuk, flows only the cold air of formal etiquette. More than the indifferent King's consideration, it is the quiet gaze of Guest, the palace attendant by her side, that makes her heart race. Turning her back on the world's principle that a woman must look only to her husband, Isu nurtures a dangerous affection. Amidst the walls of social status and the watchful eyes of the palace, their secret trysts are a precarious tightrope walk at every moment. If Kang Hyuk were to discover this secret life, everything would crumble. Nevertheless, Isu cannot let go of Guest's hand.
